Under The Republican Banner

II the present national administra-
ton and the incoming Congress do
not place our country upon the proper
economic basis for general prosperity,
the progressive party should stand
ready to unite under any banner"
This is the language Of William
Hamlin Childs, the leader Of the Bull
Moose party in Kings county, New
York, the county which contains the
city Of Brooklyn. 1t indicates that
the glamor which democratic editors
are trying to throw upon the admins
tration s foreign policy is not dazzling
enough to blind observant people
TO the obvious failure OF the Admins.
tration's domestic policy, a policy
which breeds disaster and which can
not cloak its evil effect behind war
orders"
The conditional action Of the ad-
ministration and Of the next Congress,
upon which Mr.. Childs predicates the
necessity for Bull Moose enlistment
under any banner" may be taken
for granted. Neither the Administra'
tion nor Congress can place our
country upon the proper economic
basis for general prosperity" without a
confession oil error and failure which
would prevent them from making any
affective appeal for support at the
polls. The proper economic basis
for general prosperity" is the republi'
can basis Of adequaet tariffs for pro-
lection and forrevenue. The country
desires, no doubt, to be put there by
republican hands. It is the republi-
can banner under which Mr.. Childs
and his associates will unite next year.

Place them in the pan two inches apart, f1attening each slice slightly with the hand. The heat from the baking nelts the slices to the re- quired thickness, and the cookies are absolutely round.

CHILDREN AND MONEY.

A child learns that money mas value
long before ii knows what money is.
When a boy reaches the stage of de.
string things that he knows his
parents can not provide for him, his
natural instinct Is to earn enough
money Of his own TO get them. He
win set to work in many ways 10 do
this. The manual training schools
help him.
This. then Is the time TO begin his
serious instruction on how to save
money. and if this beneficial under
standing can be drilled into his mind
10 degree that will fully make him
understand it's Importance, he will be
helped greatly throughout all his life.
Nothing that boys and girls can learn
at the very outstart exceeds in yllue
the practice Of thrift
Money is not nearly so hard 10 get in
the United States as in the countries
of Europe, nor is thrift understood
here as It is there. II the wage
workers of the old world had the
money earning chances that exist on
this side their accumulations would
total much more than they are now,
ample as they seem to be toward
furnishing enormous capital for carry
ing on the wars in which their gov
ernments are engaged,
Many banks in Pittsburg and else.
where are ever industriously encour-
aging thrift. and not from selfish mo-
tives. either, but because they under
stand, as everybody else should, that
the higher the standard of property
ownership. and the larger the deposit
OF funds in bank the greater the gen
eral prosperity 1t is benevolent
principle that works good in many
ways.
Parents. and particularly fathers
with business training, should very
carefully teach their children the value
of money The instruction should be-
gin early, and should he impressed
upon the mind that the saving of
money and its iudicious use is as
mach public moral as it $ a per
soaal duty, if in fact not more. Many
who have acquired vast fortunes have
done so by using money more as an
instrument of power than as a means
of mere private accumulation. Get a
man of this king going and he attracts
dollars as the pole does the magnetic
needle

BECAUSE OF HER

DGSNO0G VI I'Gh
With bare brown legs and faded gins-
ham gown.
saw her first-a lovely little girl,
Her slender fingers clasped within
my own.
With low sweet laughter set my
heart awhirl
From out her wondrous eyes OF
darkest blue
Shone forth soul all pure and un-
defiled,,
Ana an things Young and Beautiful
took on
And added charm because she was
a child.
Again l saw her as a maiden grown
A half-open blossom, whose rare
graces fulfilled
The promise of the bud, and yet gave
hints
OF greater glories, when, if God 30
willed
The half-grown rose should open to
fullest flower.
/ brought my gifts of frankincense
and myrrh,
To lay them at her feet; and ever
more
l reverenced Womanhood because
of Her.
And now I watch her rocking to and
fro,
And grooming low within the dim
ming light;
A tiny head is pillowed on her arm.
A tiny form is cuddled warm and
tight,
A glow is on her face-a, light me-
things,
That never on the land or sea did
rest,
All Motherhood is sacred now to
Because it is my baby at her breast
