It would have been extremely courteous for him to have done so, and were they on board the Roosevelt now instead of cached in the arctic regions it would have been well for Peary and prompted the people to have overlooked much of the ema- nations of jealousy which have come from Peary and cost him the respect of the people. Commander Peary talks ‘lfiply about the settlement of the controversy, but since Dr. Cook refuses to get into a quarrel with him or to talk otherwise than respectfully of him, he is having a hard time making the issue. It is apparent now that Peary had any and all forms upon the premises. “To conduct a place of business so that neighbors will feel it is a necessi- ty instead of a hindrance, and to re- spect the wishes of neighbors in every possible way. “To discontinue the promiscuous giving of Christmas presents in any form whatever. “To stop the sale of flve-cent growlers and limit the sale of beer in buckets to regidents of the immediate neighborhood. . “To exclude from all saloons and public bars all indecent pictures and cards, and discourage the use of in- decent pictures or labels for advertis ing purposes by the makers or dealers in liquors, cigars and cigarettes.” This is a “code of ethics” that is In line with the endeavors of the trade as given expression at practically all the liquor - dealers’ conventions throughout the country, and is follow- SCHOOL SUPPLIES A large assortment of the best qual- ity at the lowest prices.

Norwich, OV Turning from that picture of distress, it will be fresh in the memory of ev- ery reader what relief has been given by the constantly increasing gold pro- duction of South Africa. Prices have risen very generally. Trade has been stiraulated in every direction. The burden of debt has ceased to press overpoweringly upon the poorer na- tions. One after another these nations have been resuming payment of inter- est, and, generally speaking, the pros- perity of the world has enormously in- creased.—London Statis Didn’t Forget His Business. ‘harles Gold, a broker, .argued with oOrlin Kyle, another trafler, at the Broadway curb market the other day, and a fight followed.

Is it not, on the contrary, abuse of the president for the gratification of idle curfosity and municipal van- ity? e duties of the presidential office tax the strongest mind, the stoutest body. Should we saddle the incumbent with the added burden of travel for exhibition purposes? Why spend the public’s money to under- mine the president’s health?” The president knows what he can aires as the heir is attracting atten- tion and discussion. By such practice, is asserted, the prohibitions against entailed estates are, at least, partilly set at deflance. Undeér our laws a testator may se- lect his heir, but he cannot entail his estate nor can he determine how that heir shall devise it. But, the benofi- ciary of the will being a minor, the testator may establish a trust which shall endure for “a life or lives in being and 21 years thereafter.” That is, if a babe,.say one year old, is se- lected as the heir and a trust is es- tablished under strict instructions, an estate may be held intact, in the out- look, for nearly a century. Some rather interesting speculations are indulged in as to_the possibilities under such practice. It is pointed out President Taft said a pleasant word in Utah for Senator’ Smoot, who was useful in helping to revise the tariff. NORWICH DAILY LUNCH, 40 Franklin Street. TRY OUR REGULAR DINNER—20e.

HOW GEORGIA HAS THRIVEN. Georgla is getting now where she attracts attention as a manufacturing state as well as an agricultural, and the total value of her manufactures are a half again as much as the total volume of her cotton crops, or $150,- 000,000 against $100,000,000.
