THE MENACE OF FAME

LIE UENANG OC rAIuL
He went to bed humble man.
Content with all that he possessed
He thought himself better than
His neghbors living east west;
His hand out to all he knew,
From was he estranged-
., Fame honored him night through,
. 49,. And in the morning he changed.
The cheers of men in his ears
Some little dream he hal achieved;
They praised have praised for years,
He gladly heard and he believed
The drug Of fattery turned his brain,
And those who had been friends before
Could never go to him again
And find welcome at his door.
The oldtime neighbors he forgot,
The little house closed for good,
Henceforth he felt that he could not
Be seen in such neighborhood;
Yet, such little time ago
, .,. Both peace and joy had crowned him there,
And until fame his to know,
The little street seemed wondrous fair.
....- Oh, why is it that fame should spoil "a
The man and turn his love to hate?

Forget te toiler when he's great? .

And underneath the worlds acclaim
And honors which reward the fair

1890. by James Morgan
JOHN QUINCY ADAMS

THE chieftainship of every great
L nation still passed from father to
son until the presidency Of the. United
States was created, when the first
free-fOr-all race and an even start for
the highest prize was opened to the
sons Of men regardless of the accidents
of birth. In this fair test, new blood
has won every time with only two ex-
ception In century and quarter.
Even John Quincy Adams did not
win the race, but was outrun at the
polls by Andrew Jackson, the son of
an immigrant. Political parties hav-
Ing disappeared in 1924, four men en-
tered the contest and deadlocked the
electoral college, which left the house
Of representatives to choose from
among the three highest candidates.
This eliminated the fourth man-Hen-
ry Clay-who aided in the election of
Adams and who received from the
new president the appointment Of
secretary of state.
The only non-partisan admlnistra-
ton the country ever has had was not
shining example of success. Uncom-
promising, alone, John Quincy Adams
stalked his solitary way, never once
turning to the right or to the left from
the strait and narrow path of indepen-
dence. With no sense of humor to re-
lieve his sense of self-righteousness, to
light up his view of his fellows or to
thaw his own Icy virtues, 1t was i'm
possible for his supporters to feel any
enthusiasm for him.
John Quincy Adams led the simple
life in the White House. Getting up
at 8, he built his fire, read his daily
portion Of the Bible and while the

LIKE THE PREFERRED STOCK
Why Experienced Investors Prefer
That Form Of Security to Old
Form Of Bond Issues.

A. B. FarQuhar in his memoirs, in
System, tells how the idea of pre-
ferred stock originated a good many
years ago when corporate organiza-
ton was less general than it is today:
1.-THE preferred stock was devised
by the longer-headed corporate organ
izers, who saw that in the case of an
industrial organization an issue Of
bonds constituted danger, for the
interest had to be paid whether or not
any profitable business was done. A
company was safer with the preferred
stock issue than with the bond issue,
which generally involves a mortgage.
But 1t was not until very recent
years that more astute investors real
ly began to appreciate the fact that
the preferred stock of n company
without bond issues Is sometimes
better security than would be bond
of the same company. 1t took long
time to get away from the real-estate
mortgage idea and to realize that an
investor could In any event get a re-
turn only from what the corporation
earned, and that perfectly sound
corporation might, by reason Of
couple Of bad years, be forced to bor-
row money to avoid default in bond
interest, and thus invite failure that
would not occur If 1t had been per-
mit'oh to husband It's resources

Why Face is Uplifted.

Holding the head upward in rather
strained position has nothing to dc
with vision. The real reason is to be
found partly in the effort of strained
attention natural in such circum-
stances, partly In the instructive at
tempt to make the greatest possible
use of the senses that are left, that
Of touch excited by contact of the
air as 1t meets the face, and that
of smell. The shifting to catch some
faint odor is always accompanied by
an uplifted face. 1t begins with this
and soon unconsci"usly becomes q
habit.

government clerks still slept, he took
his walk or swim.
John Quincy Adams alone has solved
the problem Of ex-presidents. He forgot
that he had been president at all and
went to work like any other citizen.
With his houses in Quincy and Bos
ton mortgaged and the income from
his estate too slender for the support
Of his family. John Quincy Adams
heard the bark Of the wolf at his door
as In his gloomy fancy he closed 1t
upon public life in his sixty-second
year. When some neighbors ventured
to ask the next year If 1t would be be-
meath his dignity to represent the old
Plymouth Rock district in congress,
this great American, who had been a
senator, minister at the courts of
The Hague, Berlin. st. Petersburg and
London. secretary of state and
president, replied that he was not
above serving the people as one Of
the selectmen Of his town.
Washington was aghast at the sight
Of an ex-president taking his seat in
the hurly-burly of the lower house
only two years after leaving the
White House. Without joining the
Democrats or the Wings, with no fac
ton about him, John Quincy Adams
faced alone the Jackson administration
which had supplanted his own and
alone he met swarm of his old-tIme
critics on level. Under his incessant
pounding, the majority against the
right Of petition fell session by ses.
sion until 1t disappeared entirely In
1874. He had won his long fight
against the gag rule and his diary is
lit up with his rejoicing in victory.
His life was crowned. His work was
done. Still he labored on. Although
he fell in a Boston street under
stroke Of paralysis. he insisted upon
returning to his duties in congress.
where the members stood as he en-
tered the hall and cheered him on his
way to his seat. A year afterward, as
he seemed, about to rise to address
the speaker, he suddenly pitched for
ward upon the floor.
The veteran had been MORALLY
stricken on the field. Although he lin
gered two days. he was not removed
from the capitol, but remained In a
little room of the old hail Of the
house. There, still at his post, died
this old and devoted servant Of his
sountsy.

WHY-=======-===.=======:===
Law .oGce-., /-s !
Known as r., - ;.

In We olden days t.e al. u".sgT IN
England whose duty ii was Ia uppre-
bend criminals. was known as THE
catch-pole" because of a peculiar in
strument he used to catch criminals
by the neck.
The pole was about six feet long
and the collar was slightly flexible,
and In "catch-poles" used on serious
offenders the collar was studded with
spikes on the inside.
While such instruments were being
used In England, the French had
adapted the name police" from a
long line Of language ancestors, be-
ginning with the Greek word for
state"
From the Greek the word was
transferred to the German "polizel,"
and by the Italians as "polizia." The
French corrupted 1t into police, and
as such 1t was finally adopted by the
English and eventually found its way
to America as the term for officials
entrusted with enforcing the laws of
the state.
AS late as 1920 the word was still
considered foreign by English writer's,
and 1t was not until many years after
that that it came into common usage,
Other countries still use different
names for law enforcement officers.
The military police of Italy, for in
stance, are known as sblrrl, and in
France they are called gendarmerie.
Americans, as usual, are not con-
tent with calling policemen simply po-
lice, and have invented number of
nicknames, such as "copper"" which
came supposedly from the fact that
many police wore copper buttons on
their uniforms, and ''dicks," slang
shortening for observation-disclosures

Why L. a Curly head2

This question is asked thousands Of
times, but never stays answered. Yet
the answer is slmple-if you know the
secret. The twist in an African ne
gro's hair, for instance, tends to keep
him cool during the heat of the sur.
Examine the furs of the different an
imals and it will be seen that those
with STRAIGHTFORWARD pelts live in the
northern sections Of the world, while
those with curly fur come from the
warmer climates. In the same way
those which have white hair come
from the region Of snow and ice, while
those with black or brown hair inhabit
the more temperate climates. The
explanation is that the fur of the
northern animals is intended princi-
pally to keep its wearers warm, and
that of the animals which live in trop-
ical climates is to protect them from
the direct rays of the sun-this result
being accomplished by the curls and
kinks of the black or brown fur.

TO GUARD AGAINST
FOREST FIRES

As result of the excessive dry
weather of the past weeks, the forest
service has placed fire lookout on top
of Castle Peak, north Of Eagle, and a
careful watch is being kept for forest
fires in this section of Colorado.
A small glassed-in cupalo occupies
the highest summit of the mountain
and from the map table it is possible
to train the alidade or sighting device
on any smoke and record the bearing
and approximate distance. The loca-
ton of these smokes is then telephoned
to the rangers and is investigated and
extinguished, if burning uncontrolled.
Four such smokes have already been
reported, but all of them proved to be
on ranches and under control.
An especially fine view is had from
Castle Peak, it being possible to over
look the Blue river country, Burns
Hole, White river flat tops and almost
all of the Colorado river drainage
above Glenwood canon. The lookout
is manned this summer by II. H. Brown
who has been ranching north of Eagle.

 Seasoned steels, equipments and af- filiated issues were comparatively neglected and the narrow movement among rails indicated an absence of more than casual interest. The sales amounted to 100000 shares.
 There were no untoward incidents in the money market, demand and time loans holding at prevailing quo tations, notwithstanding the new strain by new financing and the new demand from mercantile sources.
