The feeling of unrest that Is mani
fest in some commercial ccntcrs, and
the fear Of some persons that business
conditions will not adjust themselves
Will be disspatcd when they give tho
outlook tho same careful study and
consideration that has boon given the
subject by great financial minds.
Carter Glass, Secretary Of the Treas
ury, does not take pcssimistic view
OF the situation.
"A thing difficult of understanding
said Secretary Glass, sis the reaction
airy spirit which in some quarters
seems to have seized hold of Amcri-
can business. 1t manifests itself in a
gloomy and pcssimis'ic View Of tho flu
ture in no way justified by conditions
present or discerniblc and in a dispo
s. tion to cavil ut the further eXpendi-
lures the government is under tho
necessity of making in order to IL
quidate tho war.
Instead Of days of dark foreboding
these should he days Of rejoicing, of
confidence and Of high resolve. Amcri-
ca is the least injured Of any of the
nations which took part in the death
garppic with autocracy on tho soil Of
France and Flanders. Our fields have
not been dcvastcd our homes and fac
tories have not been RACED, famine
does not stalk among us. In all ma
tcr'al things the nation is richer and
stronger than 1t was before the war.

In Grand junction the other day .
railroad union which had voted to
stand out for . i've and one-half day
week called of Its strike when the
railroad laid OF 76 men In ad-
vance Of the walkOut. The
men were vastly incensed be-
cause the railroad company had
taken such high-handed attitude.
One OF the chief difficulties with
unions il that they are prone TO pic
ture employers - potbellied pluto
Gratis, whereas In truth and fact .
good many employers are particularly
marked BY the creases In their brows
and by tendency to sit up half the
night worrying over next weeks pay
roll. Too frequently week Of i've and
one-hslf days Of eight hours each for
the men means . week Of seven days
of Is hours for the boss. = Weld

Toy oeo Answers Call.

A toy dog which. at the word Of
command, will rush from Its kennel
10 one Of the ingenious products OF
those whose business 1t IL to please
the children. A microphone 10 placed
inside the Kennel. A sharp noise
causes 1t to vibrats and come in eos-
tact with . piece Of metal. This
closes an electrical circuit, equipped
with q small battery and connected
with an slectro-magnet. The pull OF
the latter on its armaturs releases the
catch Of the spring and out pops the
toy animal.
