VIDENTLY valorizin;, caffee and soothing a panic have at least one thing in commo a: You do either—# you know how-—with somebody elso’s money. If it looks like your own so much the better—and nobler. Counsel Untermyer, fia’ the Pajo Committee, after examining George B. Cortelyou and a.representative of J. P. Morgan & Co. declared : “The evidence is conchasive that it was not the philanthropic/ Mr. Morgan but the Treasury of the United States that came to the rescue (in 1907) of the panic4stricken gamblers of the stock market.” The $24,000,000 that Mn. Morgan eo nobly and generously ecat- tered among the frantic brola2rs was not the money of J. P. Morgan & Co. at all, but money of the United States deposited that same day with the.national banks iby Mr. Cortelyou, then Secretary of the Treasury But seewhow much gretter.in one respect to soothe than to valorize! When\yeuvnlorize coffeesor what-not you use money that e lot of people have put into the bartks as savings. You may be using the savings of a ~ood many, but sfill, you can't fletter yourself that you've got everybody’ into the game. Whereas, when you soothee-panic yon take the wherewithal out of the funds of the Treasury of the United States. These funds cer- tainly belong to all citizens of the nation. So, if you are a first- rate soother like Mr. Morgan, you have the prond feeling that you are doing all the soothing right out of the pockets of the whole country, leaving ncbody out,,andeusing -everybody’s money share and share alike. Oh, heightseof:finance! Te ee SOME SIGNIFICANT STATISTICS. 0 THE Richmond (Va.) Times-Dispatch we owe exhaustive facts and figures of « terrific fly-swatting contest which the great South is watching as one man. The contest is open to white and colored on equal terms. So far the whites are running away with it. Out of a gramd total of 2,446,472 killed, counted and cred- ited, the fourteen leaders of the whites have slain more than twice as many as the lesding colored fourteen. When it comes to single scores the Boy Scouts (number uncer- tain) ere in the lead with 314,822, But their lead is a precarious one. The real honors of the strugglerso far go to a single individual female who is & close sesond. What shall we ssy, indeed, of Sarah Johnson (white), who alone and unaided has slanghtered 313,780 flies! The nearest single com- petitor of the masculine sex hasn't done a third ae well! The highest colored score is only 90,000. It is perhaps too soom to draw serious conclusions from this contest. The final results must be weighed end analyzed with pa- tient care. But-do not the data thus far accumulated already indicate the inevitably pre-eminent powers and endurance of that rece which approaches more nearly to indigeneity, and aleo the unquestionable | superiority in all.conceivable respects accruing to the female of our species? ease HILE we are shuddering at the awful things some of our W public men are saying to cach gther it is real nice to know that a British lord said to a strike leader “I shall certainly hotsewhip you for a mischievous scoundrel who ought to be shot!” And that the strike loader answered right back: “Bring your whip. ll take your size into account and will depend upon nature’s weapons, Come along, if you are not a scoundrel, dear Lord Devonport!” te We're not so very American. ———_—+——_. —— HAT seven-year-old girl who ran away thirty-two times because, as she frankly put the case, home wae dull and she had a longing to be where dhe could ee the cars, go to moving picture shows and hear music, will start a leap of sympathy in many an older, sober@r breast, ‘To how many hearts does the spring bring visions of tho gay, unfamiliar spaces of the world?
