President Harding last week precipi-
tsted original thinking in the financial
niiieu regarding Liberty bond pro-
gram. From a Cabinet member in
! Washington came an intinlation of a
cropping for a tentative plan to retire
Liberties as they matured by selling to
investors the obligations of the Allies
to the United States Treasury. Bank
ers called the suggestion an "ideal
theoretical solution but doubt has
been expressed as to the practicability
of the plan. Before any part Of the
debt can be transferred to investors,
the Treasury must work out with the
Allies funding plan, as the obligations
are now in the nature of floating in
debtedness on which in 1920 interest
was deferred FOR three years. In any
plan that may be worked out the United
States Treasury has moral obligation

EARLY KNOCK ON STRAW HAT.

One of the first mentions of straw
hats is to be found in the London
Times, July 4, 1899.
"Straw, in the head dress, accord
ing to the laws and immemorial GUS
toms of the stage, denotes the UNI
soundness of the brain it covers.
Several of those useful and respect
able young men who make the cam
paign of Bond street have thought
proper to invest their temples with
the sacred symbols and wear straw
hats to give notice of their light
headedness."
If true this would hit all of us
rather hard. And yet, come to think
of it, how many Of us who wear
straw hats could successfully and
truthfully refute the charge?

STEEL CAR WHEELS UNLIKELY
Present Ones of chIlled-Iron Are
Cheaper and Have Given Most
Satisfactory Service.

More modern and expensive met
ais will not replace chilled-iron as
material for car wheels for use on
railways, if the present wheels are
made heavier with thicker flanges,
III. J. Force, chemist and engineer
of tests of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western Railroad company said
at the meeting of the American So
ciety for Testing Materials.
"The cast-iron wheel has a mar
yelous history" he said. "The gem
eral public knows little of the won
derful progress of the chilled-iron
Industry; nevertheless, it has grown
steadily with the railroads and to-
day the commerce of the nation de-
ponds upon it. Approximately 26,-
100000 chilled-iron wheels are now
IN use in the United States and
Canada, serving under freight cars,
passenger coaches, refrigerator cars,
engine tenders, city street cars, in

all the equipment in the United
States and Canada is equipped with

SHOWS PATH TAKEN BY LINE
Illuminated ProIectiie viii Make Work
OF Live Savers, at Night,
Much Easier.

Guns for carrying life lines to
imperiled vessels cannot be used to
any great extent at night, and this
has often stood in the way of rescues
at sea. 1t is frequently necessary
to stand by idly and await the
break of dawn before attempting any
relief. Sometimes this is too late.
The difficulties are that the guns
are not very accurate or efficient and
frequently for lack of care they are
quite useless. Then again the wind
win often carry the rope to one side
or the other of the unfortunate craft.
If this could be seen it might be
secured from the ship, but in the
darkness it may rest almost within
reach without its presence being
known.
An Illuminated projectile has
been recently invented by F. G. Hall
of Philadelphia and was recently
given trial at Hog Island, the adj
vantages of which is that its passage
may be followed from the muzzle
of the gun to the end Of its journey,
says the Vancouver Province. This
will be of great assistance to the res
cuing party as well as those of the
endangered craft. If the projectile
should go wide of its mark the fir
ing party may readily note it and
make correction and those on the
crippled craft can follow the path
of the projectile and the rope which
it is carrying.

VOICE OF CONSCIENCE.

More than one type of man, all
forced into one stratum for the time,
pass in and out of the Helping
Hand.
A few days ago E. T. Brigham,
the superintendent, was reading at
his desk when man who often had
been there and received aid, dropped
in and began, casually, but with
evident effort:
''You know you've helped me and
I've tried to get right, and last night
as ! was on my knees-er-er-
praying, l thought of something.

SKETCH REVEALED TOO MUCH
of Maliciousness to Influence
His SkilIful Pencil.

Freddie, the Office boy, has a re-
markable talent for caricatures. He
can get a likeness to an almost dis
agreeable point of perfectness, and
as he's only 10, he hasn't learned the
art of diplomacy as yet, remarks the
New York Sun.

he set about it with a viii. She
kept fdgeting around to see each
carefully penned line as it fell into
place and annoyed the young artist
to the point of desperation, but on
his declaring that he wouldn't fin
ish unless she'd stop "shimmying,"
she subsidized.
However, when the picture was
completed, Freddie handed it to her,
folded and then made a bolt for the
door. When she opened it excitedly
she gave a gasp of Indignation, for

SCARED EACH OTHER.

When thief meets thief the sill
ver's safe.
This fact was established in Min
neapolis when two providers, each
unaware of the presence of the 9th
er, bumped noses in the home OF
o. E. Wolyen. They frightened
each other away.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wolyen saw one
prowler silhouetted against the win
dow of the room in which they slept.
They lay motionless. Soon they heard
a second open door and creep in
to the room.
The two men moved stealthily
about the room and finally collided.
Each gave a cry of surprise and
dashed from the house.-Minneap-
