A. Useful Coffin.

A writer in an English church maya
zine once found in a GOLFERS cottage
IN Staffordshire a coffin used as
bread and cheese cupboard. Notwith'
standing his wife's remonstrance, he
sold the story of the coffin as follows:
Eighteen years ago l ordered that
coffin. The wife and me used to have
a good many words. One day she
said, I'll never be content till I see
thee in thy coffin We'll, lass said,
If that'll content thee it'll soon be
done
Next day / gave directions to have
the thing made. In a few days it
came home, to the wifes horror got
into and said, Now, lass, are thee
content?' She began to cry and want
ed the 'horrid thing taken away. But
that I wouldn't allow. In the end she
got accustomed to seeing it, and as we
wanted to turn it to some use we had
some shelves put in and made it into
bread and cheese cupboard. We have
never quarreled since it came"

Washington Letter
BY James A. Frear, M. C.

Congress settled down to work
last week. Newly elected members
will not take seats until December,
1917, unless called by special session.
Congressional contests are now pend
ing in the courts of North Carolina,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey and
the control of the next House may
be uncertain until it next meets.
President Wilson appeared Tues
day, December 9Th, before the joint
Congress and read a message urging
further railway legislation, including
compulsory arbitration, prevention
of strikes during investigation and
generally following the Canadian
plan. That construction is placed
upon the message While the presi-
dent was reading his message to a
crowded House and galleries, yell
low banner was unfolded by several
women and hung over gallery rail-
ing. 1t bore printed sign asking
what the president would do about
the female suffrage. The reading
continued while a messenger was
raised up from the House floor and
snatched the banner from the hands
of the suffragists. No demonstra-
ton of any kind greeted the banner
or it's removal. Militant methods
are not popular and the president
was accorded a respectful hearing
by members of all parties.
The writer received generous
words and some criticism for trying
to knock the head off from wasteful
pork barrel bills. At first the effort
was ridiculed but when results fol-
lowed and bills were fought and de-
feated for the first time in a score of
years, pork grabbers insisted results
were temporary. Last Wednesday
Vice President Marshall was invited
to welcome the Rivers and Harbors
lobby, an organization that tries to
put through Congress an annual $780,
100000 waterway. Marshall threw
a bomb shell into the lobby by de-
claring the present system bad and
proposing waterways be turn d
over to the Interstate Commerce
Commission along lines SINH a r
TO the waterway bill | introduced
last session. On the same day Secre-
tary of the Treasury McAdoo sent
his annual report to Congress de-
claring that by June, 1917, the
treasury deficit would reach $780,
100000. Equally significant he urged
in his report that the public building
bill now on the calendar carrying
$35, 900, 900 should be defeated. This
is the first help that has come from
the administration against pork bar
rels and it remains to be seen wheth-
er President Wilson agrees with Nc
Adoo and Marshall.
Thursday the writer was given ov-
er an hour on the floor and opposed
the pending public bill. Over 20
pages of statistics and arguments
were offered to show it is a steal
fully as bad as the river and harbor
bill and most of the loot goes to the
South. Northern cities beg for a
small slice of pork while Florida,
Missouri, Texas and other states cor
ner plums for cross road towns. Sew
