A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK
BY HERBERT PLUMMER.

aboard, but the owner Of the vessel
Senator Tess Of Ohio had arisen to
observe that he thought such action
rather drastic, and Howell replied that
it was no more drastic than certain
provisions Of the prohibition law.
And then, while temporarily side
tracked, he gave expression to his
views that started the whole contro-
versy.
Howell felt at home discussing this
question. Prohibition is subject close
to his heart. He is bone dry" through
and through and has repeatedly de-
clared that prohibition Is at the heart
of prosperity in this country.
The Nebraska Senator is one OF the
most distinguished-lo men in that
body. Standing feet 212 inches high,
he has the bearing of an Annapolis
trained athlete. He has blue eyes. light
row.
He is a graduate of the United States
Naval Academy and spent two or three
years at sea before he decided to resign
and become a civil engineer.
He returned to his home in Michigan,
where he also found time to take a
course in law at Detroit. Becoming
afflicted with pulmonary trouble, he de-
cided to go to Colorado. He got as far
as Omaha, Nebr.
In Omaha. Howell soon got into poll
tics. He was a member Of the Ne
braska Senate and ran for governor

But his biggest hobby is public

The second wife of the Due d Orleans,
brother of Louis XIV, had hard time
at the court Of France.
Elizabeth Charlotte, Princess Pala-
tine, was first, last and always a Ger
man. She did not have French tastes
and manners, and she did not intend
to acquire them. She was homely, and
this did not take the edge from her
blunt outspokenneSs. She never knew
the art of flattery and always spoke
her mind, calling spade a spade.
Actually she was splendid woman,
possessing great good sense and a fine
wit. Louis recognized her worth and
remained her friend. Her son Philippe
was later regent of France.
Elizabeth Charlotte took many hot
shot at the court Of Versailles. Here,
she said, "duplicity passes for wit, and
frankness is looked upon as folly"
Speaking of her ugliness, she OBJ
served, IF I had not good heart, no
one could endure me"
When she came to France as the wife
of the Due dOrleans she was made to
hold conference with three bishops. :.
"They all differed in their creeds,
later said the duchess, land so, taking
the quintessence Of their opinions, !
formed religion of my own"
Her husband, the due. was known at
court as Monsieur" He was eHemi-
nate, though brave. Elizabeth Char

To My Friend, a Young Tradesman
(merchan0:
AS you have desired it of me, write
the following hints, which have been
of service to me, and may, If observed,
be so to you, on how to succeed IN
business.
Remember that time is money. He

labor and goes abroad or sits IDLE one.
half of that day, though he SPENDS put
6 pence during his diversion or IDLE
ness, ought not to reckon that the only
thrown away, shillings besides.
Remember that credit is money. II
q man lets his money lie In my hands
after 1t Is due, he gives me the interest,
or so much as can make OF 1t during
that time. This amounts to cons1d-
cradle sum where man has good ana
large credit, and makes good use OF 1t.
Remember that money is OF the pro-
life, generating nature. Money can be
get money. and its offspring can beget
more, and so on. Five shillings turned
is 6, turned again it is and pence,
and so on till it becomes 100 pounds.
The more there is of it, the more 1t
produces every turning, so that the
profits rise quicker and quicker. (To
turn money was to keep 1t in circula-
ton or use; or, as we might say today,
to invest it prof1tably) He that kills
breeding sow, destroys all her offspring
to the thousandth generation. He that
murders crown Cor a dollar), destroys
all that It might have produced, even
. scores of pounds.
Remember that pounds a year is
but groat day. For this little sum
(Which may be daily wasted either IN
time or expense unperceived) man OF
credit may, on his own security, have
the constant possession and use OF a
hundred pounds. So much in STOCK,
briskly turned by an industrious man,
produces great advantage.
Remember this saying: THE good
paymaster is lord OF another mans
purse"
He that is known to pay punctually
mad exactly to the time he promises
may at any time, and on any occasion
raise all the . money his friends can
snare. This Is sometimes Of great use
After industry and frugality, nothing
contributes more to the raising OF
Young man in the world than punctu-
atty and justice in all his dealings;
therefore never keep borrowed money
an hour beyond the time you promised
lest a disappointment shut up your
friends purse forever.

Why This Campaign ?

with the city's growth and progress. More hos
pital beds are needed To close the doors Of the
Indiana Christian Hospital would be an economic
step in the wrong direction Such action should
not be permitted by the altrustic citizens or the
business men Of this city.
This effort to raise money to permanently
establish the hospital erect buildings and
modernize its equipment is an appeal to the good
minded citizens of indianapolis to bring che work
of disqualification the care Of the sick and al
Aicted nearer to the city S requirements.

of Indiana Can it afford to be far in the back
