The January American Magazine

In the January American Magazine
is most unusual article by James
Hay, Jr., on the working habits of the
President of the United States-an ar
ticle that not only has great general
interest, but one that should prove
itself valuable to business and profess
sional workers throughout the coun-
try.
making Money Out of Footsteps"
by Fred G. Kelly, will show the re-
taller how to master the curious,
though exact, science of placing his
store in the path of the customer.
1t shows, among other things, how a
breeze of wind will cut down cigar
profits by thousands of dollars, why
the neighborhood of bank is a poor
location for retailer, why the less
crowded side of the street is often
better for the seller of various goods
and many points that the shrewdest
retailers In this country have worked
out by commercial mathematics.
The book is full of valuable and re-
liable information and should visit
every home. Address the American

STEPS OF CAPITOL
TO Be REPLACED
Eastern Approach, Worn BY
Constant Stream Of Visitors,
Is Unsightly and Dangerous.

Washingtons most historic spot Is to
be replaced.
For more than 100 years the stone
steps on the east front of the Capitol
have staged many eventful and historic
scenes.
There each President has taken the
oath Of office and delivered his inau-
,gural address; there President Lincoln
made his famous second inaugural;
there Coxey tried to make speech:
there automobiles have sought to ascend
Tor advertising purposes, and various
other efforts have been made to stage
stunts" including that of the motion
picture men when a dancer tripped II
lightly down the fight in Grecian garb,
and there the suffragists reviewed their
parades.
All this, and the constant stream Of
visitors (for legislators and those having
business In the Capitol seldom use this
entrance)' have worn the Virginia free

Elliott Woods. Superintendent of the

considered more durable.
The appropriation for the work was

STABLES AFFIDAVIT

Officials of the Department of State

Officials were silent as to the con-
spiracy angle of the investigation. No
secret was made of the fact, however,
that the Government regards the afi-
davits filed by Germany respecting the
alleged arms carried by the LusitanIa
as OF the f1imsicst character.
Even the Stable affidavit. which pur-
ported to be the evidence of an eye

German Press Expresses 0pin-
ion That Peaceful Relations
With U. S. viii Continue.
DlsTRUST ENGLISH REPORTS
Newspapers Devote More Space
to Bryan's Resignation Than
| to Presidents Reioinder.

BERLIN (via The Hague), June 10
Germany does not believe that the
American rejoinder in the Lusitania
matter reported to be due here late to-
day will result in the breaking off of
diplomatic relations between the two
countries.
High political circles distrust English
reports that the latest note amounts to
an ultimatum. They express the convic-
ton that Germany and the United
States will continue on amicable terms.
The newspapers continue to devote
more space to Secretary Bryans resig-
nation than to the probable contents of
the note. The majority of the Berlin
papers believe better relations will exist
between the two countries with Bryan
out of the Cabinet
Since the beginning of the war the
Berlin press has insisted that Bryan
is strongly pro-Brtish.
The Vossische Zeitung limited today
that President Wilson favored send
ing n strong note to Great Britain n
the same time one was dispatched to
Germany, but that Bryan dissented.
The Lokal .Anzeiger said 1t could not
be brought to believe that Bryan re-
signed because he favored a softer"
note to Germany.
Tho Tageblatt said that Rryan's
practical experience as statesman
warned him against the consequence
of firm demand on Germany.
