Convict Doing Great Things
+. +. budding Helps Down And
Cutters" Who Served Prison
Terms

The world learns of some of its
great men only after they have died.
This is story of one who was dead
to the world but who came to life
again. The founder of one of the
greatest relief societies in America
is an ex-convict, T.. +. budding.
Probably two and half million OF
men who at some time have been
down-anl-outers will have budding to
thank, that they have had chance
to come up again. Half million
convicts and a million or two Of eX-
convicts know about budding, a man
with brains enough, heart enough and
backbone enough to successfully put
into operation an organization which
extends a helping and a lifting hand
to the convict il and out Of prison.
Most persons picture a convict as
an animal with 4 forked-tail and
crooked horns, says the prison maya
zine published in the State Prison at
Salem, Ore. 1t tells how budding
made good use of his horns. He
horned his way into and out of
prison, horned way to found and
pSiuDIISH GDe IlSUiclS ltelicl .Do-
ciety, and horned himself into the
confidence Of United States senators.
business men and members of the
general public. After Il long, hard
struggle his relief society, "The
Prisoners Relief Society, OF Wash.
ington, d. c." is now recognized az
thu chief organization Of nationl!

Wet who does things comparable to
what budding has done with his

story is fiction.

tact in manifesting affection and the
kiss is unknown as a salutation.
Rubbing of noses is the nearest ap-
proach to the kiss as salutation
among Eskimos, Laplanders, Mongols,
Malays and Polynesians.
The Russian father, no matter how
large his family, in the days of the
empire, kissed every member of the
family at each departure and return
from his house, no matter how many
times day it might occur.
Although in America the kiss has
become almost as prevalent as among
the Frcn h, men rarely are observed
to kiss each other.
The North American Indian, if true
to his natural tendencies, never kisses
except in the instance OF death, when
the kiss is bestowed upon the feet of
the departed relative.
Kissing is mentioned no less than
forty-three times in the Scriptures,
but only in three instances did men
and women participate. Jacob kissed
his cousin; in Proverbs the kiss was
used to illustrate the foundations in .
Young mans way, and Mary kissed
he feet of Christ.

Rome. Feb. 3.-Majestic statelinass
attended the solemn immuring IN the
Vatican yesterday of the Sacred Col
lege, comprising for the moment 53
cardinals.
Every detail of the sacred rites was
observed, and although the time fixed
for the closing in of the cardinals was
800 Yesterday afternoon, so long was
the ceremonial that darkness had al
ready enshrouded the Vatican palaces
before the doors were finally barred
and bolted, and the preliminaries were
completed for the task of the election
of new Pope.
The SO cardinals present in Rome
are now in the Vatican. Even Cardl-
nal Marini, who is suffering from IN
huenza, was conveyed there this morn
ing. He did not participate in the cere-
monies of the afternoon, but remain
ed in bed, resting preparatory to the
work of the morrow, when the first
ballot will be taken. All the cardinals
wore grave faces as they filed between

tine Guards, accompanied by their
attendants.

The conclave's isolation from the

ceremonial. Shortly after lunch the
cardinals met in the Pauline Chapel,
where "Veni Creator" was sung; a
procession then formed, led by Cardl-
nal Eanutel!i, dean of the Sacred Col

to the Sistine Chapel, where the hymn
was concluded. The cardinals entered
the Sistinc Chapel and behind closed

THE EGG MARKET

Editor National Leader: Just
few lines to you in regard to the egg
market and the difference in the
prices. That the Puget Sound market
is being regulated by the New York
market, is false, as shown by the pres
ent quotations governing the two
markets. -.. -.
New York is enjoying soaring
egg market. Puget Sound eggs bring a
premium at New York and are quoted
at 81 cents a dozen. The same eggs
sold to Seattle dealers are bringing
36 cents, wide margin between Seat
tie and New York. The producers are
getting less than production.
The poultry men on the west coast
are calling a meeting of all poultry
men and the commercial club is going
to help get them get better market
for their eggs. This poultry associa-
ton is headed by the Farm Bureau,
and the commercial club, to make
themselves popular among the farm
ers, are trying to help get better
price for the eggs. But in the first
place there was no occasion for a
drop. They were selling at Seattle,
before the drop came, at CO. cents a
Dozen. They dropped from to 10
cents a dozen in week and at the
present writing they are offering the
farmers 81 cents dozen.
