The Peoples Bank.

The usefulness Of the postal service as peoples
bank IS being rapidly extended. Not only may
savings be deposited at interest in the postal saw
ings banks but the money order service has long
furnished cheap method Of transmitting funds
from one place to another. For small amounts the
fee IS much below that charged for collection on a
check in cities where the banks levy such charge
on their patrons.
Now law has been passed by Congress which
will result in much wider use OF money orders
AT present an order is payable only at the post
Office on which 1t is drawn. But Congress has au-
thorized the issuance OF money orders payable at
any postoffce so that order will have hereafter
the same value for purposes Of safety and convert-
bility az a Check-in fact even more general
value.
The great majority of people have no bank ac-
counts and cannot transmit money by checks or
carry It about in that form. 1t will be of the
greatest convenience 10 them when travelling to be
able to take along their funds in the safe form
If money orders cashabe anywhere. 1t seems
strange that no one should have thought earlier of
a simple change OF so great benefit to the ncn-
banking public.

KIND WORDS FOR COLD STORAGE
A Refrigerating Engineer Presents the
Benefits of the Practice.

TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Mr. Mckellar has introduced a
bill in Congress to limit the carrying OF
eggs, butter and other produce to very
short and inadequate periods in cold stor-
age. He wants 10 reduce the price OF
food, but his bill will increase it.
He wants to prevent speculation in eggs.
| But there is much more speculation in
wheat than In eggs. Why not pass a law
preventing the storing Of wheat more than
month?
If we do not place eggs in cold storage
| IN the spring, what shall we do in the
fall, when the hens stop laying? Our
grandmothers used to store eggs in the
cellar with salt. Shall we go back to that
method?
Fresh and storage eggs have been high
this season because Of the Western foo Is
in the spring and drouth and warm
| weather this last summer in the egg pro-
ducng states.
If the housekeeper thinks eggs are too
high let her buy case Of thirty dozen In
the spring, put them in cold storage, pay
ing two cents dozen, and then take
them out in the fall. But she must be
sure to put in good eggs.
This can be done. but the average house.
keeper will not take the trouble, so the
grocer or dealer does 1t and charges In
proportion TO his trouble. You do not get
something for nothing. We refrigerating
engineers are amused a. all this talk. The
best method Of preserving food known to
science at the present time is storing In
cold rooms cooled by our machines. Peo-
ple do not buy our expensive machines
for fun.
Nearly all the beef eaten in England
comes frozen from Australia, New Zealand
and Argentina, and now large English
firm is preparing to bring cold storage
products from Argentina TO a cold storage
house in Brooklyn for New Workers.
In September we had convention in
Chicago and a dinner for more than one
thousand people, including four hundred
foreigners. and everything eaten was cold
storage produce. Was it good? Why
certainly. The butter churned last June
was excellent and the salmon and shad
roe frozen last March were very nice. As
good as fresh? No not quite. but very
good and wholesome and the best obtain
able out OF season.

The Outlook at Westminster.

Storms at Westminster anticipated with god
reason There opens to-day the eliminating ses-
sion Of the most contentious Parliament of modern
times. Both parties realize that the crisis Of their
fate is at hand Home Rule for Ireland IS, OF
course the crux. 1t comes up for final passage.
If il passes it passes irrevocaby and Unionism Is
as dead as Loyalism in America became in 1883 If
it is beaten it is postponed certainly for years and
perhaps forever No wonder that both parties are
on their mettle.
The course of the government is comparatively
simple. 1t has the votes with which TO enact Home
Rule over the heads Of the Lords, and it will
doubtless do So barring unforeseen contingencies.
But it is really difficult TO see just what can happen
to Illustrate their plans, or rather what the Union
lists can do to defeat them. In a contest of fill
clustering or physical endurance the government
would have the advantage. In an effort by the
Lords to defeat essential legislation, such the
army bill, there would be little hope of success,
since money bills do not require the assent of that
House Nor is it supposable that the British ma
ton would countenance any action at Westminster
which would preciptate chaotic conditions.
1t is probable, then, that the storms at West
minister will contain more wind and thunder than
actual lightning striking. OF course, there is al
ways possibility of government defeat an
unexpected point; but the danger of that is far
less than it would be If the Inionists had n more
astute and resourceful leader and the government
one less copously endowed with those qualities. II
Mr. Asquith promptly discloses the governments
readiness to give Ulster satisfactory guarantees OF
religious protection all further talk of the sc
enant' and of fighting for faith" will ring hope
leSsly hollow.
We may expect history making session. com
handing the interest Of all the world There may
be passages as animated and as strenuous as any
in the days of Parne and Biggar. But there is
vast difference between war Of words at West
minister and civil war in Ulster

Sir: If one were TO address one OF our

to nearly twice the number for whom
there are Jobs And all the time we

more denizens for the city, and more and
more are pouring in from the adjacent
country. And nothing could persuade one
OF these superhuties 10 leave the stones

THE LlTERACY TEST
II Is Defended on Behalf Of Organized
Labor.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: The passage of the Burnett bill In
Congress by a . TO vote is obviously
decisive indication that the intelligent
public is in favor OF further restriction or
immigretio
This bill. one OF the best OF its kind that
has even been offered in any Congress, VIII
probably meet with more or less addi-
tional opposition when IL comes UP pefore
the Senate; but there is every indication
that IL will be passed by that body by an
overwhelming majority. This Is as II
should be. for the bill would prove a verl-
table boon to the American workingman
There is no doubt that the bill will be
signed by the President in due course.
even though certain influences are en-
deavoring to have him veto II when IL
comes before him for his signature.
Those who are opposing the bill are
doing so because of the so-called literacy
test embodied therein. They say that this
test would not prove effectual in keeping
out of the country the intelligent criminal
and that it would prevent many from en-
toring WHO are worthy. This objection Is
the result OF class selfishness and is en-
tirely unfoGnded.
If the Burnett bill should by any chance
fail Of passage on account OF the literacy
test contained therein another bill more
drastic will he offered. This bill will prob
ably make it incumbent upon every new
arrival to show a character certificate be-
fore he or she shall be admitted.
Labor organizations the country over.
as well as all patriotic societies. are
unanimously i'm favor OF this bill. So are
the farmers, who do not want as farm
help the kind of immigration We are now
getting. w. LOWE.

Death OF N. p. Henry

Saturday night the spirit Of M. P
Henry passed from the worn out
earthly temple to that of the spirit
world. He was 76 years old. He
was Federal soldier and a hare
working farmer, and an honest man
He had passed through serious vicisi
tudes of life. He for several years
had live two miles southwest of Sel-
mer. He leaves second wife and a
daughter by former wife.
Mr.. Henry was warm friend Of
the editor and a constant reader Of
the In dependent.
He was laid to rest in Liberty cem-
etery Sunday afternoon, Rev. J. H,
Curry preaching, the funeral sermon
and holding services at the home be-
fore going to the cemetery.
Mr.yHenry is a relative of the large
and influential family Of Henrys in the
northern portion of the county. While
he was ripe unto the harvest yet it is
sad to lose those whom we respect
and love, even if we know their days
are few.

were held. A number of speak
ers from all the walks and pro-
fessions of life paid trioute to his
character as churchman, citi-
zen and lawyer, unprecedented
in the death of any man we ever
read Of. He was the most re-
markable man of the age. He
was a private citizen. hence his
virtues had not been heralded in
the press. His intimate friends
knew his many virtues and mar

Price Of Dodson's Liver Tone
II You're Dissatisfied

B. L. Browder may not be willing
to guarantee the safety and reliabili-
ity Of calomel for constipation and
sluggish liver, but this store will and
does stand back of Dodson's Liver
Tone with an unconditional guarantee
to refund the full purchase price (50c)
instantly without question if you are
not satisfied in every way with Liver
Tone and its results.
If you take calomel, perhaps you
will seem to get temporary relief, but
it often happens that the after-effects
are at least unpleasant and somtimes
dangerous. Calomel in large doses is
poison and actually deadly to some
perhaps to you and hence its use
means taking chances.
With Dodson's Liver Tone you are
always safe. It's reliability is so GER
tain that it can be sold with a money
back guarantee. 1t is a vegetable
liquid, pleasant to take, and it cannot
harm. 1t clears up the dulled and
aching head and cleans out the
clogged system in what many have
found to be a wonderful way. Dod-
sons Liver Tone will do for you what
it has done for thousands. and you
run no risk in trying it. Ask B. L.
Browder about Dodsons and the guar
antee. adv
