In accordance with the widespread interest in the new parcels post bill which congrgss recently passed, the prompt action of the department in preparing to put it into use by the first of the year means that an early oper- atfon of the new law is to be effected in aceordance with the provision. This will be welcomed after the long and hard fight that has been made In its behalf. M In the making up of the rates placed in the blll it was realizea tnat per- fectlon had not been obtained and the postmaster general is given power, with the consent of the Interstate tion, to modify rates, weights and zone distances, when experience has dem- onstrated the need thereof. He can also make provisions for indemnity insurance and collection on delivery with additional charges for such serv- ice. The bill provides that any article is mailable if not over 11 pounds in | weight ner more than 72 inches in length and girth combined, nor likely | to injure the mails or postal equip- | ment or employes.

EXPORTING AMERICAN AUTOS. The automobile industry is one of the big industries of the country, hav- ing sprung up within the past decade and developed to enormous propor- tions, Is doing & business which is by no means confined to this country, though at the present time the marker is by no means overrun here. The worth of the American machines is evidently appreciated abroad, both as to comstruction and price, when it is realized that thirty million dollars’ worth of autos manufactured in this country found markets abroad last year, whereas ten years’ ago the amount exported was less than a mil- lion. The export price of autos from this country in the past year averaged |less than in any earlier year in the | history of the export trade, the aver- age being $990 each, while the year commerce commisgion after investiga- “The great unwashed” is a political phrase by favor, but much broader of application; in fact, it knows no line except that of cleanliness, and it is in society as well as out of it. It is more than likely that there is a great variety of noses. Perhaps this is dem- onstrated by the varlety of scents which find favor, for you know musk and vioiet, or lavender and eau de co- lowne, are s great ways apart, to say nothing of scores of other perfumes. I have never wondered that some great mind said: “Cleaniless is next to god- liness,” or that the world recognized at onice that this was a gem of thought and kept it alive. Cleaniless needs no perfumery, and mixed smells are no delight. Musk always seems to be a cover and most other drug shop smelis excite suspicion. The starchy smell which seems to be fresh from the laun- dry, or thebureau drawer, i§ evidence of the use of soap and wafer, and it doesn’t need to be retouched. If every- thing was sweet, the idea of universal brotherhood would be more taking. The great unwashed can never attain to saintship—soap and water as well as clean thought leads tq that. There are two acts in life which form a balance—giving and forglving —and there are too many people who do neither, and too many more who do one or the other grudgingly. An able writer has well sald: “In giving and forgiving reside the bols of spirit union. When you give you do not deny your right of property—you emphasize it; when you forgive you do not low but raise, your self-es- teem. This Is the mystery of sculs, we find ourselves only as we give our- selves to another.” Do you know a seed thought when you see it? This is one! Grasp and hold it thag you may secure to yourself power and wisdom. We all grovel too much—we expect another to lift us up when we should lift up ourselves: The power of self-elevation resides in our own minds; and we have only to become conscious of it and to command our sleeping energies to wake up, and we feel our broadening zome of spiritual power. We have eyes to see the nat- ural and the spiritual and why should we be blind? It was a good thing for me when I took a nmew view of heredity. In the first place this' is something a bedy may fool themselves with by thinking too much about it. One day I com- celved the idea that if T had inherited something I didn’'t want I'd cast it out of my mind if I could not cast it out of my body, 1 saw it was no use to allow it a place in my council of life; and I denied that to it, right away. I refused to recognize it as a gift or a parasite. It did not take me long to conquer that bit of self-created folly. It clears the way so that you feel your blemishes and your blessings are all your own. You do not want rats of misconception n near your heart. It doesn’t pay are not obliged to shelter the megrims your great-grandparent did. You can't shun evil and nourish heredity in any way. To the pure all things are pure and to the whole all things are whole. (Written Specially for The Bulletin.) ‘When we hear the crickets and katy- dids during the evening we know that summer is waning and with them come other warnings to foretell the end of the season. Plants and birds add their testimony to that of the insects to prove that summer is passing away. The roses are a thing of the past, and dahlias and astefs are coming into notice. Out in the fields daisies are giving way to golden rod. Even the street hucksters have changed their cry of “Strawberries! berries! berries!” into “Peaches- fou. quarts for 25 cents!” We are told that'ragweed and its companion, hay fever, have come, and fortunate is he who eludes the grasp of the latter. Is it mental suggestjon alone, I wonder, that brings hay fever every year on one of three consecutive 87 i A friend of mine was certain of a return of that malady each year o. one of three days in September, and I never knew, her to be disappointed in that respect. Another one I knew, was told that oné never had hay fever on the ocean, and so/left her usual -remedies home as unnecessary, but midw her ocean voyage on a return trip sneeze, and all the other disagreeable features of her yearly visitor. Were it not for all of these wit still there are other convincing evidence to notify us of tke passing of summer. Every copy of our daily paper has long columns mostly filled with ‘“re: turns” not election returns. Of th we shall hear later if the campaign does not become so fatal to all con- cerned that, like the Kilkenny cats, there is nothing left to return. Short has returned from her r home and reopened her city “Miss Long has returned after sev- eral weeks at the geashore.” These are but samples of the items with which the columns are filled.

Come on, goin’, and the water’s fine!” The words are near ernough to at- tract others, whose reports of hut- building and pota'o-roasts show that to many the leafy woods have a charm beyond all else. A rifle and target shooting some- times completes the outfit to fill the day’s sport. Many a lad cuts short his morning nap for such pleasure who will find it difficult to be awake in time for the school bell two weeks later on. An occasional frog suffers, too, I fear, from that rifle, but I hope the boys are merciful to the birds whom they may chance to see. When all these fail to please, there is still remaining the fishing at the riverside. when the word is passed around that the little biues have come at the drawbridge and elsewhere.

In reference to the promises which the third-termer is making in his canvass for votes, Mr. Long says He is power of attracting public applause only to secure his own return to po- Jitical power. His cry against bosses s wonderfuily funny, in view of the fact that there is no such colossal hoss as himself. Everything is made subservient to his personal dictation. I believe he is striking at the very foundations of our constitutional gov- ernment by his theory of the recall of judicial oficers by popular vote thus making our courts subservient to pop= ular caprice He preaches the com- monpla of good s and virtu- ous conduct, but not an item among them in which Taft is not as good, if no Tvery- ody who thinks s that | t sevelt - were 1ing 0 any n of living, life." position on Mr. termer hits the situation on the head and expresses the opinion of the salf- thinking voters of the country, Long's Those who slept through the, con- flagration have the watisfaction of knowing they didn't bother the fre- mem Nerwich can be proud of the | still |on bis visit to Columbus ¢ manner in behalf | using his great ! ice.
