WITH OLD TRUTH IN MERCY
Authors Opinion Of Why Women Use
"Taet" instead of Being Too
Plainly 0utspoken.

Il call a woman sincere" NARROW be-
gan after giving me a cigar and light
ing one himself. IL call q sim
cere when she volunteers a statement
resembling remotely in form what she
really thinks ought to be said If 1t
were not for the necessity to spare the
stupid sensitiveness of men. The
woman's rougher, simpler, more up
right judgment embraces the whole
truth, which their tact, their mistrust
of masculine idealism, ever prevents
them from speaking in its entirety.
And their tact is unerring. We could
not stand women speaking the truth.
We could not bear it. 1t would cause
infinite misery and bring about most
awful disturbances in this rather medi-
OGRE but still idealistic FOOLS paradise
in which each of us lives his own little
life-the unit in the great sum of ex-
istence. And they know it. They are
merciful."-From "Chance," by Joseph
Conrad.

Mercantile Agency. Liability.


The liability of a mercantile agency
for making false statements to it's pa
irons concerning a person or corpora
ton is decided by the supreme court Of
Idaho in Pacific Packing company vs..
Bradstreet company, in which the court
said:
.The only safe and Just rule either in
law or morals is the one that exacts
t%ruthfulness in business as we'll as else
where and places a penalty upon false
hood, making 1t dangerous for a mer-
camille, commercial or any other
agency to sell and traffic %falsehood and
Misrepresentation about the standing
and credit of men or corporations. The
company that goes into the business Of
selling news or reports about others
should sun the responsibility for it's
acts and must be sure that it is ped
ding the truth. There cannot be two
standards Of right nor two brands Of
truth, one for moralizing and n for
business. The law ought to look with
a stern, cold eye upon the liar. whether
he be incorporated or just as everyday
man. II m~erchantile agency can safely
make false reports about the financial
standing and credit of tie citizen and
destroy his business it then take
the mex step with equal impunity ana
destroy his reputation, leaving him
shorn and helpless.

ELLIS ISLAND RULES
AROUSE NORWEG|ANS
Parliament Critisises Treatment
of Subjects ut American
Port Of Entry.

Christiania. Special: The treatment
of Norwegians at the immigration sta
ton at Ellis island. New York, has
been receiving criticism in parliament.
Several members of the storthing have
made speeches in which they cited in
stances of illtreatmant Of Norwegian
immigrants under detention there and
the foreign minister was asked point
eddy what he intended to do about it.
The discussion arise from the story
recently published here of a 15-year-old
boy, Who was detained at Ellis Island
for a whole month before he was sent
back to Norway. II was asserted that
he was kept prisoner and that only one
OF several letters which he wrote ever
reached its destination.
The protestin members in parlia-
laws of the United States, but they in
sisted that N~orwegiahs detained under
these laws should bh properly treated.
M. Thlen in answer to the interpella-
tons, quoted some of the most inn
portant of the American immigration
acts and said that coo often the Nor
weg1an emigrant failed to comply with
the regulations because of ignorance.
He agreed that thare We're cases Of
exceptional severity sind cited that Of a
Norwegian woman and her four chill
dren who were detained because the
paper by which her fa%therinlaw guar
ranteed that the family would not be,

before their arrival. She was allowed

Simple Flexible Coupling.

From the Scientific American.
A very simple coupling has recent
ly been invented which consists merely
of two sprocket wheels held together
by a roller chain. The sprocket wheels
are keyed to the shafts that are to be
connected. and then the coupling is
readily effected by Wrapping the roller
chain about the two sprockets and
clasping the chain with a master link.
The shafts may as readily be discon-
nected. The coupling "A great strength
because all the teeth are in contact
with the chain rollers at n time. A
roller bearing, instead of sliding con-
tact is thus provided, The chain adj
justs itself automatically to all varia-
lions Of alignment within wide limita-
tons. The coupling has no preiectinp
parts, AND hence it meats with all legal
requirements for safety.

One OF our western senators, who

has a habit on days when everything

clerks employed by his committee.
Not long ago, during a session Of
the senate, the western solon had ex.
pressed a desire that one of the clerks
prepare a tabulated statement Of Ger.

States. The statement was according
ly prepared and laid before the testy
