MEANS BETTER COOPERATION.

Since Secretary Hughes spoke so strongly in favor of the members of the cabinet being given the opportunity to appear upon the floor of the senate and present their views In regard to legisla- tIVe matters 1t has come out that the president and other members of the cab- met are heartily in favor of it.
 Stop and think of what is involved, and why shouldn't they be? It is not desired that they should have chance to vote ln either house of congress- but when it comes to clearly presenting views for the purpose of informing the legislative body. and presenting them in a way that will go to the heart of the subject without passing through several hands, the object is clearly to give n much desired improvement to legislative action.
 Under present conditions all sorts of misleading statements are put forth for political effect. Possibly that wouldn't be ended, but whether such was done or not 1t wouldn't be necessary for the sem ate to accept a lot of misguiding fnfor- nation, or for a head of & department to write letter to some senator, in order to have facts which are in the posses sion of government officials placed be- fore the lawmaking body. Facts are what congress should be guided by, and 1t Is reasonable to expect that depart. ment heads are in much better position to furnish reliable information to con. gress than some others, who may bt striving for political effect instead oi serving the best interests of the coun' try.
 The idea of giving the cabinet mem bers chance to be heard and questioned is not new one. It has been urged in different forms for a considerable time. Legislation upon this matter i' even now being sought. Increased at tention has been directed to the neet of 1t by the frequent misrepresentatiol of government intentions within the pas year. It discloses possibilities of close cooperation between congress and the de partment heads which would be beneh cial. The president sees it, the oabine members see 1t and it remains to be seer whether congress can be impressed witl It's merits.

If the wishes of the president were to govern Budget Director Dawes would still be directing the operators of that system which has been so capably inAug- nrated by him. But Director Dawes simply consented to devote his time and attention for the period of year. That he has done. and done in So excellent a manner that he has clearly established the fact that the president picked the right man for the job.
 Putting the budget system into opera tion was no easy task. The man who could see what was needed and stick to 1t regardless of the influences brought to bear from various directions was the one needed. It was new work for him, but he buclyled down to 1t from the begin ming in a manner that indicated he would make a success of the bureau of such a thing were possible, and he has amply proved that 1t was

 Thus there is sufficient reason why hia Felinquishment of the duties should be regretted. From the example which he has set, however. there are reasons to believe that his nlccessor will fully profit.

 Much reliance was placed upon the Japanese premier to exercise his posi- tion ill behalf of peace and thus far in the short time he has been at the head of the ministry he has fully justified 1t by his acts.

CHANGES IN JAPAN.

When 1t Is announced that Kato had been made premier of Japan 1t was re- eeived in this country with much enthu- Eiasm because of the fact that KaAo is well known here. because he made an excellent impression while in this ccun- try at the Washington conference and because there Is confidence in his inten- lions to have Japan adhere strictly to The treaties that were negotiated at that gathering.
 He started in early to let 1t be known that the Japanese army must be reduced and it got promises of support from in nuential partisans in behalf of his pro, gram He was likewise insistent that there must be a curtailment in the na- tional expenditures. He realized thai what was being insisted upon in ethel countries was quite as badly needed ir Japan. and that his country could no afford to get the beneft of greater econ omy. especially when 1t was possible tC obtain 1t without endangering the safe ty of the nation.

FREE FROM HER PAINS FOR FIRST

New Haven Woman Tells of Her Complete Restoration By Tanlac After She Had Suffered Nine Years = Re- gains Weight Rapidly.

Three bottles of Tanlac have done me more good than all the other medi- cine I have taken in nine years com bined," declared Mrs. Frank Bethkie, 474 Crescent Ave< New Haven, Conn. T hardly had a. /noment's comfort for nine years, on account of indigestion My appetite was very poor and could scarcely eat thing that did not hurt me. was hardly ever free from pain, palpitation of the heart, short ness of breath, or some other misery. At times was so dizzy and weak that would fall to the floor. My nerves were all undone, had backache, and rheumatism in my hands and arms so bad, sleep was out of the question.
 But Tanlac has made a wonderful change in me and my friends are commenting on how much better I look. My stomach is in good condi- tion. I am free from aches and pains, and picking up weight. believe Tan lac will help any one who gives it a trial"

HELPING Youn ArarA 1-Arrn.

There are those who go through cole lege and in appreciation of the work that 1t is doing and the benefits gained from the course of study use some part of the wealth they accumulate to AiA the institution in later years. Such gifts are made in ali forms, bat per- haps the most unusual is that 0f the late Major w. D.

 There Is criticism and loyalty at the same time Major Straight didn't for get his alma mater. but apparently from his experiences 1t dida't measure up to what he believed 1t should. He saw where It's shortcomings were and he believed that 1t hasn't been the human institution that it should be. That opened an ave- nue for him to do something for the uni- versity which. according to his ideas, 1t most seriously needed There Isn't | university today that cannot use mill lion in most any way designated, but 1t is most unusual for it to be applied to making 1t more human.

wu TING FANG.

Long and prominently identified with Chinese sftairs was Wu Ting Fang. whose death recently occurred. He was old in years and old in experience, and what he stood for and what he has done for China was plainly indicated when only few days ago he was asked to be- come foreign minister of the Pekfng government. This was a move that was expected to bring closer together North and South China, following the defeat of Sun Yat Sens forcss. but he was un- willing to undertake the work and hil death. following soon thereafter, indi- oates that he was in no physical condi- ton to do so had he so desired.
 Wu Ting Fang was an international figure. He received his education in England and was Christian. For four years he was the representative of China at Washington following 1897 and during that period he gained wide ac- quaintance and much respect throughout this country. His entire life was not given up to politics for he had been a railroad builder of note, but he was equipped to render signal service te China whether under the old empire or since. He was close friend of Sun Yai Sen and had been foreign minister in hii Canton government, but wherever he was placed his ability was recognized by his countrymen. No better evidence oi that could be asked than the calling oi him to the foreign ministry of the Pek- ing government from that of Carton. Ii will seem strange for China to get alons without his participation in some role 1T the affairs of that country, but 1t vii be no easy matter for 1t to put mar in his place who will stand as steadfast ly for his country and become such al international figure.

 Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen of New Jersey. who has been a strong op- ponent of the bonus and voted against the apparent sentiment of his state on the prohibition amendment, intends to car " his fight for reelection directly to the people. Senator Frelinghuysen bears a name that is historic on the roll of able Jerseymen, being the fourth member of his family to sit in the United States senate. Before becoming a national law maker MT. Freylimghuysen had a long and creditable experience in the New Jersey legislature and had served on the state boards of education and agricui- ture. For many years he has been prom inent in the management of insurance companies. His business interests are in New York city, but he resides at Rari- tan, where he is known as gentleman farmer" In politics Senator Freyling- huysen has been classed as partisan oe the progressive type.

 For two years Mother Ann worked In New York as a washerwoman then. in IT'S. she founded the first Shaker village at Watervliet, N. r.
 "In such strange fashion was instituted. the year that America. dates her national birth, the western worlds first experiment in communism. Later societies or fam.- lies grew up in New York, Massachu- setts, New Hampshire, Maine, Connecti- cut. Ohio and Kentucky.
 'HThe cardinal principles of the Shakers religion are virgin purity, confession of their sins. complete separation from what they term the worlds vanities. and a communism which approaches political socialism. If a man and wife join a Shaker community, they are supposed to live as brother and sister
 Until recently they prohibited the talk ing of photographs and they forbade pie lures of all kinds as idolatro1s. Even the cultivation of flower gardens for decora- tive purposes was drowned upon in former years. And there is still doubt among the older members about the propriety of musical instruments.
 ''The Shaker community is as nearly self-sustaining as possible and about the only importations in their beginnings were iron for their plowshares. In their industrial and agricultural development they have contributed many valuable l ideas which have been seized upon for general use. They are credited with the revolving harrow, cut nails and the plan- ! ing machine. Raising herbs for medicinal use was one of theS- early major indus | tries.
 "A famous description of their central l community, that of Nit. Lebanon, N. Y. | is applicable to all their settlements Nc Dutch town, has heater aspect, no Mora vian hamletNa softer hush, says this
 writer. The streets are quiet; for hert you have no grog shop. no beer house. nc i lookup, no. pound of the dozen edifices rising about you-wprkroo barns, ta- | bernacles, stables, kitchens, schools and i dormitories-not one is either foul oI noisy; and every building. whatever may 1 be it's use, has something of the air of a l chapel
 "An elder and an eldress are the pa ] triarcha1 heads of the villages. In the larger villages two of each sex are chos- len, and their authority is unquestioned
 The recruits of the societies are from
 world weary persons to whom the isola- tion appeals, and children attending their
 schools who are inbued at an inpres- l sionable age with their religious teach | ings. Each member of the community is l expected to perform a share of the work and by work the Shaker means manual labor Many attempts to carry out the
 economic ideas of the Shaker villages have failed, apparently because the ab-
 sence of the religious tie allowed mem bers to depart too easily"

 bon, that's different," scoffed Loretta, When we decided not to stay up there we were in predicament, if you know what mean, for there wasn't any boat that time of day and the nearest train was twenty-five miles away. There was a station nearer but no train was sched- uled to stop after noon, 50 we simply had to make that train. We locked up the house, asked a neighbor to keep an eye on 1t, and went to a garage where we got a car at an awful sum to drive those ter rible miles"
