R, TAFT continues to struggle | with the impossible task of sue-| cessfully intermingling Business with Government. The rather. wise founders of the nation and the framers of the Constitution hardly contemplated the state of things that has come to pass. Big} business is distracted at govern- ment interference. There are loud howls for a “constructive policy.” “Destructive policies” must cease before “business is destroyed.” All this because of a successful bear raid upon a strictly gambling stock, Steel common, which has no guarantee behind it of either dividends or value. Not a single legal step has been taken against the Steel Trust, yet its securities go to pieces in the market! The Standard Oi! Company has been “dissolved” without any visible Panic on the part of its owners. The Tobacco Trust is undergoing a similar process with complete calmness. ‘There is no rush to throw its 40 per cent. common stock overboard. Why does Mr. Taft take heed of gamblers and apologize to J. P. Morgan? Is it because he, too, is imbued with the idea that gov- ernment should be a factor in business. continue, and in the same breath hegs for an oppos the public mind. ‘The plain truth is that “business” is only in such trouble with the government as naturally results from its efforts to use government for business. As long as this is the practice there can be no such tranquillity as Mr. Taft bespeaks. . When government becomes government and not a vendor of privileges, and when business becomes business and not a manipulation of legislation, there will be no more public anger or artificial commercial distress. \ LANDMARKS, SCENERY AND NAMES. HE ffi@ofporated American Scenic and Historie Preservation Society, founded sixteen years ago by the late Hon. Andrew H. Green, “the Father of Greater New York,” is a patriotic and public- spirited organization for the prevention of eruelty to the face of the earth and of disrespect to the . various landmarks ereeted by man, especially in the big cities and along main travelled roads. ‘This society's work is national in its scope. It keeps a protecting eye on the petrified | trees of Arizona, while forbidding billboards as a feature of the rural | lundecape along the old Boston Post Road, and fighting the proposi- tien to utilize more of Niagara Falls for grinding out breakfast food. The successful protest against further encroachments upon City | Mall Park by the bridge terminal and as a site for the new County | Gourthouse is only one of the recent activities of this useful and en-| ergetic society that have deserved appreciative recognition from the Ppablic of our metropolis. Other undertakings of prominent local interest—not to take ac- count’ of what has been accomplished in other cities and States—in: clude the preservation or restoration of St. John’s Chapel, the First Presbyterian Church, Hamilton Grange, the Poe Cottage at Ford- ham, the Thomas Paine house at New Rochelle, Fraunce’s Tavern and the Billopp house on State Island; the creation of Inwood Park and Joseph Rodman Drake Par!

(The New York World), She Tells Why Men Are Lovable, 66 HY do you revile us #0?” inquired a nice “average man” of me th® W otber day. “Isn't there hing good about # man?” ANYTHING good! Why, my dear Boy, of all the sexes that roam the earth my favorite {s the masculine, The GOODNESS of men sometimes appais me, If it were not for the per- versity of hatping I would take off my hat every time L meet an ordinary, commonplace man. ‘Their virtues are few in number—mortifyingly few—but those few are so big, 4 fine, and ~vonderful that I contemplate them with awe of @ small boy watching a live cowboy at the circus. But, sh! Don't tell anybody. Because if a man really suspected that he were “good” he would do somes thing immediately to correct the impression. A man is good, not because he wants to be, but because he can't help it. He is rather ashamed of being caught at it. Call him a “perfect saint” and he will wonder what ts the mat- ter with him; call him a “perfect devil" and he will begin to think that he must be rather fascinating after all Nevertheless, when an ordinary man asks an ordinary | girl to de his wife she ought to go right down on her knees and thank Heaven Not because proposals are as scarce as Old Masters and as rare as Chippendale nowadays; not because she seea @ way of getting a living without working for St, but because she has had a revelation’ of human unselfishness that stands the elghth wonder of the world. ‘The missionary who offers Itmself up a martyr upon the altar of humanity hae at least the comfort of knowing that he is doing @ noble and admirable thing and paving his way to heaven; but the man who lays himself down, human sacrifice, upon the altar of matrimony has no such consolation. On the contrary, he 1s aware that most of his friends think he ts making @ fool of imeelt; and tt 1s just possible that he may be paving his way to the other Place—or to Reno, At the best, he ts placing hie tmmortal soul on a long shot. He has every thing to lose and nothing to gain—except the girl. Ho is deliberately giving wp Ris care-free existence, his cronies, two-thirds of his income, all his lberties, most of bis pet habits, eeven-eighths of the dressing-room and the attentions of all other women—to say nothing of the supreme and trreststible charm with which bachelorhood inves: man.
