One will provi i de that no foreign goods shall be | sold in this country at a price less than that in the place of origin, and the other will stipulate that customs duties shall be caleulated in terms of American dollars, instead of on the value in foreign exchange. Republican leaders indicate by the decision to defer tariff legislation that problems involved are different from those of | other years, and considerable time will be required to work out| schedules that will provide the maximum of revenue interfering adversely with the export trade of the United States. Agitation for a temporary tariff measure to be effective un-| til the whole subject can be given consideration is perhaps not| as strong as it was a few weeks ago, and the general impression seems to be that the purposes sought can be obtained by protect- ing American markets against the dumping of foreign goods! and taking more time for readjustment of tariff schedules. 0 WHY SUCH AN EFFORT? Sometimes people look upon attendance at church as a duty which must be performed, and yet one which requires| more or less of an effort. When we go to a show we pay the price to see performers! reproduce scenes of everyday life that are old to mankind. It affords us the change our natures require and we are satisfied. At every church service the minister tells us something we/ did not know hefore. He extracts his information from a source, that can not be questioned, from a book that never grows old, | from the fountainhead of truth and knowledge. The pages of the Bible contain more thrilling stories and more astounding wonders than all other prints of civilization combined—and every word is truth. All of this is yours for the going, as free as the air that you, breathe. There is no ticket taker at the door, and no ad- mission is charged. You are welcome without a price. Can you ask more?

The president stated to the two! commissioners that he was sending General Wood to the islands to make an investigation of existing condi- tions, and that he would not be pre- pared to annoumce his Philippine pol- | icy until he had received and studied General Wood's Teport. It was announced that W. Camer- on Forbes of Boston, a former gover- nor-general of tie Philippines and | director of the 1l/nited Fruit Com- pany, had been mnequested to accom- pany General Wood, who made ar- rangements to safl from San Fran- cisco on April 2.

J Overseas brides, procured through newspaper advertisements, is a new way of robbing the unwary and al- ready much-robbed immigrant, ac- cording to “Glas Naroda,” a Jugo Slav New York daily. In the present abnormal times, there are many young immigrants here with no ac- quaintances among the fair sex, while the girls of Europe are in sim- ilar straits. A newspaper advertise- ment sometimes solves the difficulty, often happily, but there has sprung up a class of supposedly would-be brides, whose aims are distinctly mer- cenary, says the paper. Some of these women persuade their unseen suitors to send them pre- paid steamship tickets, and that is probably the last the love-lorn swains will ever hear of them. One such sroman succeeded in obtaining tick- ;ts. o: the act}\‘ml cash, from four dif- lerent men through correspondence. “Glas Naroda” urges its readers to exercise great care in matters of this kind, and to write to friends in the would-be brides’ home town for ac- curate information before allowing themselves to be cheated of their lard-earned money.

It was entirely too disagree- able a place. “Well,” said the gir], “we’ve met so many nice people along the road.” “Nice?” screamed Mother Gossip. “You mean you thought they were nice and then found out how horrid they | were? That's it, eh?” All this time the Tattle-Tale Twins kept Interrupting to tell on the other while Mother Gossip smiled in her ugly | way every time they did so, The boy and the girl thought the Tattle-Tale A'wins were quite the most horrid crea- tures they had ever met. In fact, they thought the twins would never get through trying to get out of things | themselves and blaming each other and their relatives them. The dull brown suits of the twins were so ugly, too. Tley looked as If they were never brushed or cleaned. “No,” sald (he girl, “they didn’t turn out to be Lorrid in the least. In fact we've met some delightful peo- ple, quite delightful,” said the girl, “Didn’t you hear any stories about and telling on them which made you think differ- | ently?” asked Mother Gossip. “None,” said the girl. “Well,” she said, turning to the boy disappointedly, *“‘what have you o tell me?” “Nothing but about our adventures, if youw'd like to hear about them. 1 thought T had a lot to tell you, as the girl thought, too. We are so full of stories of our adventures and the In- teresting people we've met, but:your kind of news—we haven't any.” ” “You haven't any!” screamed Moth- er Gossip. “How perfectly horrible. Well, T'll tell you, that you can be pretty sure that most of those people you met, whom you thought were so nice, had something queer about 'them. Maybe they’'d eaten their neighbor’s cherries which hung over in their back yard, and pretended to their neigh- bors that the birds had eaten them, or maybe some of them pretended they sent their clothes to the laundry, and actually washed them themselves In o tub behind the house. “I've no doubt that you went along with your eyes shut, yes, that is what you must have done, for if you had had your eyes opened you would have thought it was very peculiar the way | the lady who lived in the white house with green Dblinds had two blinds closed and two open in the right hand room in front of her house. That looked very strange to me. She is without a doubt making herself a wig behind those closed blinds. Her hair has been growing very thin of late, and she doesn’t want anyone to know it. “But oh, dear, I'm so disappointed in you. You won't be nice to my dear twins, and you've brought me no news. I'mglad I don’t belong to your family. Why, you're both 50 pleasant and Kind and charitable. All those things don’t get along with we. “I wanted to hear of queer things, and of how you would tell a story on the boy, and he one on you." “They don't do such things,” said Mr. Wood EIf “They agree with me that the tattle- tale is always worse than the one who has done the thing which is be- « tattled about.
