Judgment upon his own career
For this man who had aspired to the Pres-

will be remembered when lesser men who gained
that goal are long since forgotten. He is remem-

Daniel Webster"
But even If he were not remembered for what
he did, he would still be remembered for what
he was-"the Demosthenes of America" even
though more than century has passed since
Webster stood in the United States senate and
participated I'm the debate which grew out of
resolution introduced by Senator Foote of Con-
necticut which had to do with the sale of public
lands in the West. Comparatively unimportant
in ITSELF the subject of the resolution was made
the excuse for sectional controversy between
Webster and Senator Hayne of South Carolina
in which the doctrine of notification of federal
power by the states had become the dominant
issue.
After an oratorical exchange between the two
men which lasted throughout several days DAN
Eel Webster finally arose for his now-famous
reply to Hayne. There was a three-fold pur-
pose in his speech to answer Haynes per-
sonal taunts, to vindicate Massachusetts in her
participation in the Hartford convention during
the War of 1912 where the doctrine of nulIif-
cation had made its first appearance in our
history; and to show that the Constitution was
not mere compact between sovereign states
and to expose the fallacy of attempting to turn
the natural right of revolution AGAINST the gov
eminent into right reserved under the Consti-
tuition to overturn the government itself

BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

The person whose duty 1t Is to send
the formal notes records the name of

Then, when the bride does send the

they can easily be acknowledged in

AN HOJJR OF FEAR.

7 N the year 1912 Minor Spicer lived
in little house on the southern
shore of Lake Erie with his wife
L and children. There were two
other white families nearby, but
a band of Indians could have overcome
the little settlement.
One dark night call came from the
front of the cabin Spicer picked up
his rifle and opened the door There
stood an Indian, who had dismounted
from a horse he had been riding. Over
the back of the horse was a slain deer
''Injun tired, cold, sleepy" said the
stranger.
Spicer thought that the Indian
might possibly be a spy, but he invited
him to spend the night in the cabin.

to the deer and then to the fire.
He is hungry" said Mrs. Spicer, and
she prepared a slice of venison for the
guest. He accepted it with seeming
pleasure, but he ate only little of it.
The rest he slipped into bag.
'Ha" thought Spicer. He was only
making believe that he was hungry.

The Indian was told to lie down on
a couch. and Spicer went TO bed in

cooked. Then with smacking lips the
Indian ate 1t and went back to the
couch to sleep.
Years later the Indian paid another
visit to the Spicers. He could now
speak better English. and he explained
that the meat which Mrs. Spicer had
cooked for him had been salted too
heavily. He had not wished to hurt her
feeling by telling her that it was not
good.

Answer: I have no way of knowing
what you mean by formal dresses"
But the chances are that l agree with
your mother. BY which I mean that if
you are sitting in an Office in semi
evening dress too much cut out at the
neck or the armholeS, or transparent
material showing all your underthings,
the eye OF any officer of your company
who may happen to walk through the
department in which you work will not

type but that of an ideal business
woman. 1t may not make any diff
ference one way or another, unless the
dress you wear is so flagrantly insult
able as to challenge attention, but if
you have business ambition. one way
to show it is at least to look the part.
And the part" requires that you
look tubbed and scrubbed. brushed and
pressed and neat as paint. The reason
one associates tailor made clothes with
business women is merely that they
represent the acme of neatness and
utility, which inevitably suggests an
orderly and efficient mind. 1t is not
necessary to sacrifice feminine becom-
ingness. but whatever clothes you
choose, let them be tailored in cut
meaning merely that they are free
from an effect Of dangling trimmings
that get in the way.
Above all. have neat. well groomed

Since September seasonal import

Moreover, comparison of trade returns
