THE MERCHANTS DREAM.
J. 0. Rooms,
Acting Postmaster Gen

Last evening was talking With merchant old and gray, When he told me of vision he had, think, last Christmas Day. While snoozing in his office This vision came to view, AS he saw an angel enter, In garments white and new. Said the angel: "I'm from Heaven; The Lord just sent me down To bring you up to glory; And here's your golden crown. "You've been friend of everyone, And worked hard night and day; You've supported many thousand And some have failed to pay. "So we want you up in glory, For you have labored hard And the good Lord is preparing For you just reward" Then the angel and the merchant Started up toward Glory's gate But when passing close to Hades The angel murhnured: "Wait." "I've a place wish to show you, It's the hottest place in hell, Where the cres who never paid you In torment have to dwell" And behold, the merchant saw them His old debtors by the score, And grabbing up chair and fan He wished for nothing more. He desired to sit and wstch them AS they'd sizzle, singe and burn, And his eyes would rest on debtors Whichever way they'd turn. Said the angel: "Come on, merchant There are pearly gates to see." But the merchant only muttered: "This is heaven enough for me-"

Room For Thrift.

The American Society For Thrift is sounding a warning that should not go unheeded. The statistics it has gath cred indicate how reckless we are with our money and how little we lay up for a rainy day. We are pre-eminently a nation of spenders who believe in liv- ing while we live.
 Statistics show that ninety-ive of every hundred Americans who reach the age of sixty are dependent upon their daily earnings or on others for support. The total, of course, includes wives, mothers and daughters who had not tried nor expected to accumulate competency. But after they are elim- mated the percentage of workers who have a nest egg at sixty is very small. even if that is generally considered too young for retirement.

candid effort followed to carry it out the result would be without difficulty accom- plished It is true that it might follow in some cases that because of particular terms of employment or exceptional sur roundings some change might be neces- ground for holding the act void because its provisions are not susceptible in prac- tioe of being carried out.
 Being of the opinion that congress had the power to adopt the act in question, whether 1t be viewed as a direct fixing of wages to meet the absence of a standard on that subject resulting from the dispute between the parties or as the exertion of power by congress, which it undoubtedly possessed, to provide by appropriate legis- lation for compulsory arbitration-a pow CT which inevitably resulted from It's au- thority to protect interstate commerce In dealing with a situation like that which was before tive conclude that the court below erred in holding the statute was not within the power of congress to enact and in restraining its enforcement, and it's decree therefore must be and 1t is re- versed and the bill dismissed
 Strike Called Of.
 Only few hours before the decision the threatened strike was called off by a practical surrender of the railway managers to the demand of the men for basic eight hour day and pay for overtime.
 The settlement means that approxi- mately $1,000,0O0 week will be added to the payrolls of the railways and that about $13 100000 in back pay since Jan. 1, when the Adamson law was to have become effective, will be distributed among 100000 brotherhood members.
 The brotherhoods win their long fight for an eight hour day and yield noth- ing but their demand for time and half pay for overtime. Instead they receive pro rata pay for overtime.

Tho British Manicure Ladu.

Tn English barber shops you do not have to pay for mirrors, elaborately tiled floors and a manicure girl" writes Homer Croy in Ererrbodyts. lover there a manicuriSt is considered the last vocable in the way of smartness. The manicure girl hasn't the run of the shop there as she has here. She has a little cage down in one corner, where she is bottled up as if she were a rare liquid. When a man wants to have any light housework done on his hands he thrusts one of them through the bars, while the proprietor hurries up with a newspaper for him to read. In America we would be insulted if the owner of the shop put something into our hands to read while the mani cure girl was working on us. In Eng land the art of jollying the man.curist is unknown"

5 PER CENT RATE
 l 0k TkDM D0NnC : UN nhlW DUlVDO
U. 5. Board to Save Farmers . $1OO,OOO, 900 Yearly.

The Federal Farm Loan Board has adopted a resolution fixing a rate of Az per cent to be paid on farm loan bonds to be issued as a means of rais- ing money to lend to farmers. The board also fixed a rate of per cent to be paid by farmers on farm mortgages for the use of the funds.
 The difference of one-half of 1 per cent is to be used to pay the expenses of operating the system. The board hopes ultimately to bring this margin down to one-eighth of 1 per cent. To do this it will have to keep dividends down low, but the board takes the view that the farmers would rather get money at low interest rates than re- ceive high dividends.
 The mortgage rate is 1 per cent un- der the maximum which could be charged under the law.
 The present farm mortgage indebt- edness of the United States aggre- gates approximately $4,0OO,OOO,OOO, at an average interest rate of "A per cent. The , per cent rate fixed by the board will mea:t a saving of about $1OO,OOOOOO year to the American farmers.

There was a Butchers bridge on the Thames side near Baynard's castle, writes H. B. Wheatley, ito which the offal was brought from Newgate street through the streets and lanes of the city, by which 'gricvOus corruption and filth have been generated.'

 The young man will leave tittsfield Thursday for New York, from where he will sail on Saturday for European war zone. Inasmuch as the suppressing of publication of all information as to the sailing of steamers from American ports has been asked by tho United States government, Pittsfield people will have no knowledge of the name of the steamer upon which he will sail for Europe. The French liner Rocham. beau is in port at New York and per- mission for clearance papers has been given and it is not unlikely that it will be on this steamer that the local chap will sail,
