4FIDDLINGy CONGRESS

Wonder cannot be restrained
as to what kind of excuse con-
gFess can evolve for not getting
down to work after March a
One reason the sixty-sixth con-
gress has done so little is that
it has been so bdsy devising ex-
cuses for doing nothing.
For months congress delayed
imperatively needed legislation
until after the singing of the
peace treaty of Versailles. For
months thereafter it delayed
many forms of constructive ac-
ton until after ratification of
the treaty in the senate. When
it became apparent that the
treaty would not be ratified, con-
gress refused to do anything un.
til after the election. Since the
election the favorite aim of the
sixty-sixth congress seems to be
to- do nothing until after the
Inauguration of Mr.. Harding.
AS has been said, wonder per.
sists as to what kind Of excuse
congress can evolve for doinl
nothing after March 4. Imagina.
hon can conceive no honest rea
son upon which further procras
tination might be based.
But, if the sixty-seventh con
gress is like its predecessor, j
will need neither reason or ex
cuse. A pretext will suffice.

western University in advising
women to meet the surly conduct
Of mean and devilish husbands
with an instant and practical

Gault. He recommends a dish
pan of soapy or greesy water, a
rolling pin or fiat iron as appro-

There are few men who could
stand up before such a fusillade,
There is something so uncom-
promising about a rolling pin. 1t
reminds one so much of those
first biscuits, that impenetrable
piecrust which graced the table
during the honeymoon. You
cannot argue with a rolling pin.
To be sure, there are some
husbands who will not be con-
tent to let the little domestic
scene end there. They will retail
late, but after all is over and the
wife has had the last word, the
air will be clearer, the husband
far less likely to fall into a
grouchy mood again. Professor
Ganlt has raised domestic strife
to the level of d university lee
ture. But he has really not told
the women folk anything they
did not know already.

OF LEE INSURANCE.

" fAl-QE VT LII NJ OIettINOG
One day of thrift week, which
was observed throughout the u
nited State last week, was de-
voted to creation of greater in
terest in life insurance. 1t is
probable that there are still a
few persons who regard life in
surance as "aying into the face
Of Providence" as some oppo-
nents Of insurance protection
have designated it, but insurance
is now recognized as of such
business value that persons of
intelligence no longer make any
pretense Of opposition.
The business of promoting in
terest in insurance in its approx
ed forms should not be left to
those who are directly engaged
in the selling of policies. II
should be the desire Of every
person that his neighbor be
amply protected from any loss
that is avoidable, either through
his death of because of accident
or sickness.
Insurance constitutes a great
mutual organization, in which
its members undertake to pro.
tect each other against certain
kinds of losses. No person con
siders himself a good business
man if he neglects to protect his
buildings or other property from
complete loss by fire. Loss o
the earning power of the indi
vidual because of death or in
capacity should be euardedo q
aslnst as wen.

COTTON GOODS REVIEW.

Cotton goods buying continued steady
although. not as broadly active in the
gray goods division as It did a. week
ago. Several large mills are being re-
started In full and sales have been large
enough In some instances to assure a
full output for the next ninety days.
Printers are unwilling to pay higher
than 10 per cent. advance from the low
point, and converters hesitate to make
further engagements at the higher
values until large business shall de-
velop on finished goods
While the largest volume of business
has been done on print cloths and fine
convertibles in the gray cloth divisions,
there has been a very substantial busi-
ness placed on bleached cottons, ging-
hams and miscellaneous lines of colored
cottons. Several of the leading lines
have been withdrawn from sale to await
further developments at the distributing
end OF the market. There has been "a
larger movement of goods to the con-
verters Of tailors' Innings and for gem
eral manufacturing purposes
The automobile trades are still quiet.
The yarn markets have been more ac-
tive at rising prices. knitting yarns sell
ing rather better than weaving yarns
combed yarn prices still continue rela-
lively low. Converters of wash fa5rics
report that buyers are operating oione
for needs thirty to sixty days ahead
The attendance of buyers In the mar
kets last week was the largest known In
many years.
