WASHINGTON. July 3.-To the
practical mind of Atty. Gen. James g.
McReynofds, a meal Is nothing more
than a bOthersome chOre, and the
sooner IL is consumed the better. Nc
Reynolds has a habit Of performing
whatever task he has TO do without
needless fuss or delay. and this is
especially true in the little routine
matter OF eating meals. He is the
quickest eater in official Washington
And the strange part OF ii is that he
does mis- eating mostly at a fashion
able hotel where everything is served
in slOW-mOving courses. and the wait
ers hover about him with their air Of
painstaking leisure.
One or more OF two things must be
true OF McReynolds eating habits.
Either the man swallows his food
whole without proper fletcherizlng
process like a dog. or else he eats
sparingly like the average canary bird.
Along about 1915 every day, Nc
Reynolds puts on his hat and sets out
for lunch Immediately the others
about his office suite prepare 10 do
likewise. They aim to eat as quickly
as possible and get back on the job,
hoping TO do so before he does, be-
cause ii is not considered the best
at noon than the boss does. Now these
other men dash 10 the nearest quick
lunch establishments You know the
kind OF places-where you take a tray
in your hand and march past various
foods, helping yourself from time 10
time and end up eventually in front
OF a cash register.
But all this haste avails the men not
at all. When they get back TO their
desks at the department OF justice in
twenty minutes or so. the attorney
general is already there end he ism [
even using a toothpick. He has for
gotten that he ever ate.
AS McReynolds is a person OF solid
physique and is not losing weight
though some of the others in the quick
lunch competition are-he must eat
something. But this much is certain:
He never waits for the finger bowls.
That would completely upset his
schedule.

McReynOldS goes in on large scale
for neatness and accuracy, and espe-
ciaily so in regard TO letters. He
would rather not send a letter at all
than to let it go out with a slightly
blOtted signature or an omitted pune
tuatiOn mark. He has passion for
commas. Every little phrase that
could possibly be staked off with
commas has TO have the commas right
in place or else ii doesn't go. The at
tOTney general insists on just the right
phraseOlogy too. There used to be
an old story about Noah Webster's
wife finding him with his arm about
the waist of their beautiful maid SER
want, and eXclaiming Noah, I'm sur
prisedi" Whereupon Noah said: NO,
I'm surprised. you're astonished"
McReynolds is just that way. He
wouldn't think of putting in a letter
that he's surprised when he means
he's astonished.
Besides having his mail neat and
accurate, McReynOlds goes further and
has il prompt. Some time ago he is
sued an order that every letter to the
department of justice requiring an an
swer at all must be answered within
twenty-four hours. If a man writes
in for information that it requires
several days to get. they must at least
write to him within twenty-fOur hours
and acknowledge receipt Of his letter.
McReynolds has a theory, too. that
a letter should be not only prompt.
neat and accurate, but polite. Even
when he writes to a stranger he
throws in several nice little polite
phrases. For example, he never starts
off: Your letter of the 10th at hand"
but is more likely 10 say: Permit me
TO acknowledge your letter." etc, II
beg To acknowledge" cit gives me
great pleasure to reply" or something
like that, calculated to make a person
feel that he has done McReynolds a
great personal favor and frightened
things up a lot by writing TO him.

FEDERAL RESERVE ACT.


In considering the future of the
federal reserve system 1t must be
remembered that a great moral an
chOrage was provided for in the ere
alton of the federal advisory council.
This is a board of twelve men, select
ed by bankers, and completely free
from governmental influence. While
its powers are limited TO conference
and advice, ii Will be none the less a
real and great force in keeping the
whole system sound
One member of this council is TO be
selected by the boards of directors of
each federal reserve bank. These
boards are made up of three directors
appointed by the government and six
by the member bankers of the dis
trict The board is thus made pre-
ponderatingly a banking board and
the selection for the position on the
advisory council Will undoubtedly be
of highest class material.
The advisory council must meet at
least four times each year for confer
ence in Washington with the federal
reserve board, or oftener if called by
the latter. But in addition, it may hold
meetings at Washington or elsewhere
as often as it may deem necessary,
may select its own officers and may
adopt its own methods OF procedure.
act SAYS: The federal advisory cOun-
ell shall have power, by itself OF
through it's officers. Cd to confer di-
rectly with the federal reserve board
on general business conditions; CD to
make oral or written representations
concerning matters within the juris-
diction of said board CD TO call for
information and to make recommen-
datiOns in regard TO discount rates,
rediscount business, note issues, re-
serve conditions in the various dis
tricts, the purchase and sale of gold
or securities by reserve banks, open
market operations by said banks, and
the general affairs of the reserve
banking system"
Should it ever happen, which may
never be the case. that the federal
board should undertake unwise or po-
litical action, the protest of this fed
eral council would become powerful
and undoubtedly be backed by sound
public opinion. and in the light of
enormous publicity, no unwise admin
istrative action or policy could long
prevail.-American Banker.

For a man who looks serious, does
little but work, and seems to have
little or no fun as he goes through
life, McReynolds has a surprising
knack of cracking jokes. Every noon
he meets a group of newspaper cor
respondents who come to find out
what he has done toward earning his
pay. and he almost invariably picks
out two or three men TO make sport
of. One man showed particular in
terest in news of the smelter case that
was up some time ago, and Mercy
that correspondent simply as "Smel-
ter"
Another correspondent asked the at
torney general at one of these noon
day meetings about the working out
of a proposed provision in the tariff
measure.
81 will be head on collision"
said McReynolds meaning that it
would clash with the provisions of
certain foreign treaties.
Nobody knew what he meant and a
chorus of voices asked him to eluci-
date.
But he wouldn't do it. He thought
il was a great joke to let them all
wonder a while. Every day for
week he inquired with a chuckle how
many had figured out what he meant
by his conundrum of the head-on col
lision. And not until ne had them all
fairly frantic with curiosity did he
loosen up and explain.

Tssnania's pretty girls of Euro
pean lineage have never been
tempted to follow the fashion Of
the native Tasmanian women, who
had all their hair removed With =
flint and went bald. The last pure
blooded Tasmanian woman died in
1876, aged seventy-six; the last
man IN 1859. aged thirty-four. A
traveller says that the native had
two fine points, eyes and teeth. The
eyes were prominent and often Of
great beauty and brilliancy; and a
dentist Of wide experience knew Of
no teeth equal to the Tasmanian's
for strength, size and enamel. But
the nose was bridgeless, the chin
ran off," and the upper jaw pro-
truded.

THE AURORA B0REALIs.
Glorious Beauty Of she Wonderful
Northern Liahss.

When the frequency of the au
rora in the polar regions il referred
to, the expression should not b.
taken too literally. On the contrary.
auroras, believe, are far less nu-
merous in the polar region proper
than farther to the south.
1t was one night about the mid
die of September that / beheld q
truly magnificent display of the au-
rora borealis- Across the inky
blackness Of the northern sky a
great arc of pure white light was
suddenly stretched, which Lit up the
snow covered mountains around our
camp Just as if We had suddenly at
tracted the very active attention of
a gigantic searchlight.
From the main body of this
glorious sheet Of flame great darts
and streainers constantly shot shiv-
ering and shimmering through the
sky, now opening out into broad
white lanes Of light, and again mar
rowing until swallowed up once
more BY the envious darkness Of
the surrounding sky.
Never for a single instant were
these wonderful polar lights STILL
They constantly spread and con-
tracted in every varying waves and
tongues of light until they finally
died out, and the stars once more
shone brightly in the clear sky.
The effect was indeed amazing and
awning in the extreme.
Only once more did we see the
northern lights, but then, too, the
display was SO soul stirring and
magnificent, and / count these
splendors Of the arctic sky az the
most marvellous Of all the wonders
Of the worId-all the wonders of
the world that / have been privi-
legged to see, at any rate. Seen in
the solitude Of the northern wilder
ness, such visions Of glory cannot
but awaken reverence in the soul of
man, of whatever race or degree Of
culture.-E. @. Selous in London
