The Wisconsin Weekly Blade takes
great pleasure at this time in pre-
senting to its many readers a true
likeness Of the Hon. Henry Builder,
who is candidate for reelection.
One good turn deserves another. His
record is an open book. The follow
| ing is a brief sketch of his record:
Henry Builder, the county treasur-
er, in going over his official records
for the year 1921 finds that because
of his thoughts for the welfare of
Milwaukee County financially he has
earned the sum of $13,6SO13 from
sources other than the usual aven-
ues of income.
During the said year he invested
the sum Of one million dollars in u. S.
Certificates of Indebtedness, which
sum, If same had been left with the
banks of Milwaukee County as depos-
itories of county funds. for the same
length of time would have earned in
interest a total of $11,60528. In
placing this million dollars in certi-
ticates OF Indebtedness he earned for
the county the sum of $25,2S541.
In the year 1921 the depository
banks paid to the county an interest
of 2 Y % on the average daily depos-
it, while L. S. Certificates if Indebt-
edness paid as high as 5 u % interest.
Due TO Mr.. Builders efforts the Mil
Haukee County depository banks were
induced to pay an interest of three
per cent on county funds to be left
with them during the year 1922. The
treasury OF Milwaukee County, he
finds, will therefore be enriched by
about the sum of $12,576.94
Praises come to Mr.. Builder very
frequently because of the courtesy
and dispatch which the public meets
n doing business with his department
and there seems to be a pronounced
readiness on the part OF his employ
ees to serve.
He has the finest staff of employees
in his Office second to none in the
state. They are kind and courteous
to everybody. Re-elect the above
gentleman to this office and you will
make no mistake.

EXCITED WRATH OF DICKENS
Great Writer, at His Best, Denounced
Public Hangings, Which Were
Disgrace to English Law.

Charles Dickens, at the time of the
execution of Manning and his wife for
the murder Of Patrick O'COnnor, was
at his fullest power as a writer In
letter to the London Times he wrote:
II believe that sight so inconceiv-
ably awful as the wickedness and levi
ty Of the immense crowd collected at
the execution this morning could be
imagined by no man, and presented by
no heather land under the sun. The
horrors of the gibbet and the crime
which brought the wretched murderers
to it faded in my mind before the
atrocious bearing, looks and language
of the assembled spectators. When
came upon the scene at midnight the
shrillness of the cries and bowls that
were raised from time to time, denot-
ing that they came from a concourse
of boys and girls already assembled in
the best places, made my blood run
cold. When the two miserable crea-
lures who attracted all this CHASTITY
sight about them were turned CULVER
ing into the air, there was no more
emotion, no more pity, no more thought
that two immortal souls had gone to
judgment, no more restraint in any of
the previous obscenities, than if the
in this world, and there were no belief
among men but that they perish like
the beasts

Lao-tsze Wrote Gospel of Taoism.

LaO-tsZe wrote the gospel of TaOism,
from whose pages an immense re-
lfgiOn grew up. Having been librarian
of Chinese king, and having much
time for meditation, he came after
many years to the conclusion that hui
mility was the supreme virtue. He
resigned, and desired to hide in Sc
clusion. While passing through the
gate of the palace on his way to soli-
tude the warder besought him: "You
are about to withdraw yourself from
the world. l pray you write me a
book before you co.
Lao-tsze thereupon sat down and
wrote a book about half the size of
st. Marks gospel. He gave this to
the warder, passed through the gate
and no man knows where he died.
The little book is the gospel of Tao
ism. The word "Tao" means way
man of destiny. The advice was that
men should become like little chill
dren and act without reflection.

CHINESE MINISTER AS CUPID
Testing Remark Made by WI Ting
Fang Led to the Union Of Two
Loving Hearts.

WI Ting Fang was, while minister
at Washington, attending the wedding
of the daughter Of the chief justice
at that time. At the breakfast he
asked one of the bridesmaids when it
would be her turn to become a bride.
She modestly said that she did not
know, as she had not yet had an Of
fer. Turning to group of young men,
Doctor WI jocularly remarked to one
of them, '"This is a beautiful lady,
would you not like to marry herr"
He replied, II should be most delight
ed to-" "Will you accept his offer?"
said Doctor WI to the bridesmaid.
She seemed slightly embarrassed and
said something to the effect that as
She did not know the gentleman she
could not give definite answer.
Meeting the Chinese minister at an
"at home" few days later, she scold-
ed him for his bluntness, and he ex-
cused himself by saying that he was
actuated by the best of motives.
A few months afterward WI re-
ceived an invitation from the young
lady's parents to attend her marriage.
The bridegroom was the young man
who had figured In the unconventional
incident. To Wu's agreeable surprise
the mother Of the bride informed him
that it was he who had first brought
the young couple together, and both
bride and bridegroom heartily thanked
him for his good Offices.
