It is not so easy for society to shock the people who'are not in it. We always dislike the man who is proud, and who has nothing to back it. Sor.e people will'never admit the “iuth about others, when it is credit- able. = There never was a person so in- significant that they could not be annoying. The more talk of culture there is around a man’s house the fewer good things he has to eat. Don’t let that saying that you “will be dead a long time” excuse you for making a fool of yourself. In case where husband and wives quarrel in one case out of seven or eight thousand, the man is right, But no one dares say so.

Chicago, Jan. ~.—Confessing that she was an incendlary, a shoplifter, a sneak thief and a burglar a twelve year-old girl told the sheriff of Lake county, Ind., a tale of criminal ex- ploits which rivaled the record of most offenders four times her age.

The fire, started by the girl and her five- year-old brother John, whom she en- listed as an aid, spread to the ice: houses of the company and for a time threatened to wipe out the entire town of Robertsdale, adjoining Roby. “I just wanted to see it burn,” sald the girl in a childish treble. “I knew it was wrong, but something inside of me told me to light the hay and see a pretty fire.” 3 Then she launched into her story, which was corroborated by the police records of South Chicago and Ham: mond. .

RETIRES ALL BONDED NOTES Bank Money lIssued in Future to Be Based Upon General Assets, With a Guaranty Fund to Protect Both Notes and Deposits. ‘Washington, Jan. 9.—The sub-com- mittee of the house committee on banking and currency, to which was entrusted the framing of a bill to in- crease tbe elasticity of the currency, has reached a conclusion and will re- port favorably to the full committee & bill drawn in the main by Chairman Fowler of the committee. The bill provides for the complete retirement of all present outstanding national bank bond secured currency and authorizes in lieu thereof a cur- rency based upon general assets of the banks to be worked out in this ‘Way: The comptroller of the currency will designate throughout the country cer- tain redemption cities, so that there shall be a redemption city within at least twenty-four hours’ reach of each national bank. The national banks will indicate to the comptroller of the currency to what redemption city they wish to be joined. The comp- troller will then select a time and place within each redemption district for the organizing of that district in the following manner: Each national bank in that district, regardless of its capital stock, will be entitied to one vote. Representatives of the banks will meet at a time and place designated and elect a board of managers to consist of seven mem- bers. These seven will elect a chair- man, who will become a deputy comp- troller of the currency and assume control of his redemption district, ex- cept that he shall not have charge of the enforcement of the criminal stat- utes. Each national bank is authorized to present to the secretary of the treas- ury national bank notes and lawful monies in lieu of other national bank bond secured outstanding notes. Then it the bank’s application therefor is endorsed by the board of managers of the redemption district to which it belongs the bank will receive guaran- teed credit notes to the amount of its capital stock. These notes will be subject to a tax of 2 per cent per annam. Each bank will be required to deposit as a guaranty fund with the treasurer of the United States 5 per cent of its average deposits for the preceding twelve months and 5 per cent of the credit notes which it takes out. The revenue thus obtained is to create and support a national guaranty fand of $500,600,000 for the guaranty of both the deposits and the outstanding bank notes of every na- tional bank. Eighty per cent of this fund is to be invested in United States ponds drawing 2 per cent interest,” while the remaining 20 per cent is to be deposited in banks of the various redemption cities to redeem the guar- anteed credit notes of the banks in the various redemption districts. WALSH ON THE STAND. Chicago Banker Testifies in His Own Defense. Chicago, Jan. 9.—John R. Walsh, on trial in the United States district court on a charge of misapplication of funds of the Chicago National bank, testified in his own behalf. After re- counting, in reply to questions by John 8. Miller, of his counsel, his early business career Mr. Walsh told of the founding by him in 1884 of the bank in question. As its president, he said, he purchased in 1897 and 1898 certain receivers’ certificates of the Centralia and Chester railroad at 95. Prior to their purchase, he said, a careful inspection of the property was made by himself, F. M. Blount, then vice president of the bank, and oth- ers. The legal status of the road was also investigated by Azel F. Hatch, attorney for the bank, the witness as- serted. Eftorts by the prosecution to have Mr. Walsh admit that in purchasing the recetvers’ certificates he had in mind the ultimate control of the rail- road for the benefit of other holdings which he may have had at that time were without avail. “I had nothing in mind except that I thought the certificates were good securities for the money and that they were cheap,” said Mr. Walsh, * ~ SECURE ALL THE CASH.

He went on to say that, although his medicine did nothing but get the stom- ach in sound condition, it wonld, in many cases, remove kidney and liver| trouble and various other: ailments. He argued from this that the stomach wag the main causs of sickness, and stated that the success he has had with his medicines was due entirely to this fact. “I am now fully convinced that this theory is correct, and believe Cooper ¢ has a really remarkable medicine, | judging from my own experience, “I bave been @ sick man for five RETIRED BUSINESS MAN FAVORS NEW THEORY E.
