Holiday Home
cOmings.

The holiday period is one of home
comings. Gay throngs of students
crowd the trains. Their trunks. par
ticularly those from the girls
schools evoke the maledctions of
baggage men. A small army of city
people return to their former coun-
try dwellings for brief outings. An
air of jubliation is pervasive.
1t is with mingled sentiments that
one returns to dwelling and
community that was once his home.
1t is or should be a joyous and heart
swelling moment. The sight of fam
illar objects, ugly as they often may
be, awakens many pleasant memoir
les. Every scene conveys sugges-
tons of formers associations. There
are vague ideas of melancholy, the
suggestion of days and pursuits that
can never return and of friends that
are gone.
Human nature shows out in strong
relief at these homecomings. Some
people affect to despise their form
err haunts. They swell around with
big talk about their more advanced
surroundings and speak contempt
uously on the Inconvenience of Its
life. The chances are that such peo-
pie are very inconspicuous figures in
the community to which they have
gone. If It has greater advantages
they are entitled to no credit for
them.
Other people are more generous
toward their former dwelling places.
If they have done we'll in the local
tiles to which they have gone. they
feel it was probably due to the train
ing they got in their earlier life at
home. Most successful men can look
back at some patient school teacher,
inspiring minister, or energetic bust
ness man, as one who gave them a
long push along the pathways of life.
One of the frs. things to be done
on coming home is to visit such
friends of yore.
The return of the college student
brings new life to many quiet homes,
The spirit of youth returns into pla-
cid dwellings. and the racket is =
welcome echo from the big world
\outside. In later life these home
cpmings are apt to be all too few.
Business men and women scatter ov-
err tAe whole face of the country. A
holiday. trip to the old hearth stone
may not occur for many long years.

Danger Sigre,.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with a cough. A cough
is danger signal as much as a
fire bell. You should no more try
to suppress it than to stop fire bell
when it is ringing, but should cure
the disease that causes the cough
ing This can nearly always be done
by taking Chamberlain Cough Rem
sdy. Many have used IL with the
most beneficial results. 1t is especi-
ally valuable for the persistent cough
that so often follows bad cold or
an attack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas
Beeching. Andrews. Ind, writes

The Romance of
The West.

A news dispatch from Denver,
Colo. reports the serious illness at
his home in Denver, Colo, of that
ancient friend of the American peo-
pie, Buffalo Bill. The news brings
a reminiscent thrill. A very big
section of the American people used
to go to see Col. Cody in his famous
show as often as he made the rounds
To people who dwelt in convention
allied cities and towns, there was
sohrettiRg very romantic and allur-
ing about it.
Young people became weary OF
factory walls. whirring machinery,
ink spotted ledgers, and rafting
typewriters. The life among horses
and cattle and sheep and fruit ran
ches and mining prospects seems
one of joyous freedom and boundless
possibility. The Buffalo Bill show
brought to Eastern and Central cit
les as much of the atmosphere OF
that life as could be transferred un-
der circus tent. No doubt it was
the agency that melted great many
ambitious and energetic young men
to undertake pioneering
The same sentiment is today APP
pealed to by moving picture men.

BRITISH INFLUENCE.

The refusal of the British to grant safe conduct to America for the Austrian ambassador is piece of unexpected and inexcusable impotence.
 If Count Tarnowsh ordinary Austrian, we should expect nothing else.

INCOMES.

The income receipts for the fiscal year 1916 af ford another proof abounding prosperity The produced nearly s125OOOOOO against SSOOOoOOO the year before. The individual income tax rose from S410OoOOO nearly s6SOOOOOO and the corporation from sS9,OOO,OOO to nearly $57,OOOOOO.
 The number of individuals contributing greatly Creased But striking than this fact is the increase of income reported by those previously subject the The most notable gains have been in the upper levels
 While the total amount paid by individuals in the normal income" class of sSOOO S2O,OOO year creased 4S per incomes from $2OOOO $50 900 paid 46 cent supertax than the before; incomes from s5OGOO s7JOOO paid 62 per more; incomes from s75,OOO S100OOO paid 72 per more; from s1OOOOO s25OOOO paid SS per cent more and comes above $25O,OOO paid 93 per cent
 The inference is plain. If in ordinary times, it is true that "the more money has, the more he can make,' that ability is accenuated in abnormaly pros porous times With prosperity increased earnings for nearly everybody but those who least enjoy the smallest percentage of gain. Those who most have the largest percentage gain If workngman the small saaried wins total raise of 25 per the mumillonaire is likely to be making from 50 to 100 per cent than he made before It's of the strange and apparently inevitable nusces of life.

HOME STUDY.

Dr. Frank Crane wants to know why, if eight hours long enough working day for it isn't long enough for boys and girls.
 He condemns the system of "home study for school children Tt is pedagogcaly mscientfc" he says. Tt is economically mistake. It is morally barbarous When a child gets through his school hours. he ought to be through for the day"
 There is great deal said for his point of view The child is usually weared by his schoolday just person by his days work in office or store or factory. It is hard him study the evening his brain Jagged It is also hard the distractions Isn't familiar that child boring his books with the of the family around can't keep his mind his lessons? And without focusing
 But the school day, may be argued than eight hours. The may be given that eight hours is too long nobody but of mature mind and unusual vgor really study anywhere that length Of time. There is harder work than study. And length of time is criterion. One of the worlds scholars and thinkers Herbert Spencer said 10 have studied only about hours day. He might not have learned so much in hours
 School hours be heightened however if tlst seems desirable The Gary system keeps the children school longer, and requires home work The pupil home then with mind and conscience free Then he play And Dr. Crane says, the child needs play and family life and social life just much as he needs booklearning

 The trend of discontent has been partly against the government system partly against certain members of the cabinet. Slowness in reaching decis- ions and inaction is the gist of the in dictment. The principal counts Of this are the man power and food ques tions, while recently dissatisfaction was expressed in the management of the bureau of the navy and weakness in the foreign office has been increas- ingly expressed.
 The appointment of a food dictator was announced>more than a fortnight ago. but none has been appointed yet This is one complaint The unwieldi- ness of a cabinet of 23 for managing a great war is a point on which the critics seem unanimous, but less To- cal sentiment that they fail to credit the administration with the great work fl has accomplished in the mili- tary and financial fields within two years.
