Assistant Secretary Roosevelt announced that an effo;t would be made to have the North Caro- lina overhaul the Tennessee at sea and take aboard some of the army officers and treasury officials now crowded into the overtaxed quarters of the latter ship. The intention is to have the Tennessee gu to the North Sea after touching at London and Paris, while the North Carolina steams through the Straits of Gibraltar to the relief of Americans along the shores of the Mediterranean. Tennessee Sails With 986,000,000 for Relief of Americans. NEW TORK. Aug. 7.—The armore4 cruiser Tennessee, converted for the time into a treasure ship, left port at 9:45 last night with about $6,000,000 in gold for the many thousand Americans who are in want in European countries. Three million dollars was from the Bankers’ Trust Co., $2,750,000 was ap- propriated by Congress and about $300, . 00 entrusted to the Paymaster’s care by personal friends of individuals abroad, The gold was insured against marine risk. Two millton dollars intended as part of the cargo did not go. Bankers ar- ranged that it be held here against money that may be drawn by the French Ambassador in Washington. The French Government has deposited with J. P. Morgan & Co., through their Paris house, 30,000,000 frames (about %,- 000,000), which has been placed to the credit of the French Goverhment. Ex- plaining this arrangement, J. P. Morgan & Co.. said: “This is considered a significant and encouraging sign, as evidencing a move- ment on the part of foreign govern- ments to establish credits in the United States. 1 Morgan, Harjes & Co., the Paris house, have arranged that a large por- tion of the $6,000,000 shall be payable in gold in order to provide for the wants of travelers in Paris, this ar- rangement to be carried out in con- nection with the same group of bank- ers which is forwarding gold to London by the Tennessee for the same purpose. Prominent bankers here expressed the opinion that the ruling of Secretary Daniels to the effect that only Govern- ment officials may accompany the gold on the Tennessee will add te the dif. ficulty of distribution. The Tennessee is a slow cruiser. It is believed it will, be ten or twelve days before she reaches England, Bankers representatives: planned to sail today on the American liner St. Paul for Liverpool, hopeful of making connections with the gold cruls- er at a British port.

There is the greatest activity in re- recruiting, not.only in London, but in all the chief army centers. Though no one underrates the seriousness of the situation, the public feeling is one of éalmness. When boys rushed through the streets late last night shouting “Great British naval disaster,“ little excitement was caused. When it was found that this cry meant only the loss of the small cruiser Amphion, some re- sentment was shown against the pub- lishers. Minor Losses Expected. The Amphion, in earlier dispatches, got the credit of sinking the German mine-layer, Koenigin Luise, but it turned out later that this feat was accom- plished by her sister ship, the Lance. stroy the Amphion was one which had bi laid by the Luise, and while It ie delleved that the mine which de- Pacific Railway Co. last night that the British coasting steamers Prince Ru- pert and Prince George, operated by the company between Seattle and Prince Rupert, B.

The Canadian Pacific liner Empress of Russia salled yesterday from Van- couver, B. C., for Hongkong, where she will be delivered to the British Govern- ment for use as a transport. Aboard the Empress of Russia were 8 Rus- sian reservists returning to join the colors. The British ship Titan of the blue funnel fleet, which has been held at Se- attle since Wednesday, her sailing date, is expected momentarily to sail for Liv- erpool via the Orient with a million dollar cargo, including 1500 tons of flour, 25,000 cases of canned salmon, 3500 tons of box shooks, 2,000,000 feet of lumber and shipments of provisions and general merchandise.

The situation of the large number of Germans in London is becoming more unenviable. More than 106 have been arrested on suspicion of being spies, and there is a public demand that all Germans remaining here should be seg- regated, as France is said to be prepar- ing to segregate them. After the declaration of war a large number of Germans clamored at the German Consulate for facilities to re- turn home. but the Consul replied that he Was powerless to help them, and add- ed that they “might be more useful by remaining here.” This hapless remark, when it became known, greatly in- creased the British suspicion of espion- age, and aroused ill-will against many Germans who have lived in London for years and have been on the best of terms with their English neighbors.

How Money Wife of Representative of italian Government at Cairo Asks Partition of Estace. Mrs. Plorence Ghiglia, wife of Ettor Ghiglia, representative of the Italian Government at Cairo, Bgypt, who ar- rived in St. Louis two days ago, accom- pauled by her husband and is staying at 4036 Castleman avenue, filed suit at Clayton Friday for the partition of the residence property at 7000 Washington avenue, in University City, that is oc- cupied by Her mother, Mrs. Sarah Brennan, widow of Daniel B. Brennan. The suit is directed against Mrs. Ghig- lia’s mother and five brothers and sis- ters. The sult discloses dissatisfaction of Mrs. Ghiglia with the agreement of her brothers and sisters to allow Mrs. Brennan to have the University City residence for a homestead in lieu of the house at 4622 Olive street, Which was Brennan’s will Daniel B. Brennan died March 13, 1914. His will gave his wife the home- stead at 4622 Olive street and divided the rest of the estate among the chil- dren. The Brennans were living in the Olive street house when the will was drawn. Later they moved to a much finer home at University City. Daniel Brennan Jr., who shares the exeoutorship with his mother, told 4 Post-Dispatch reporter that the children had agreed that it was their father’s wish that their mother should have the homestead occupied at the time of his death. He said the filing of the suit was the first intimation he had hed that Mrs? Ghigila was displeased with this arrangement, Mrs. Ghiglia, in her petition, asks that her mother be ‘required to set out what claim she has to the University City property and that it be partitioned among the children.

Gates to the grounds were closed, only the most pressing busi- ness was transacted at the executive offices, and attaches and servants, all of whom Mrs. Wilson knew personally, showed deep grief. A procession of carriages. bringing cards and callers froin the official and diplomatic circles, circled around the White House offices. On every hand throughout the capital expressions of tenderest sympathy for the President were heard. Under the heavy strain of domestic legislation, the situation at home resulting from the European crisis, the long, hard vigil through the Mexican crisis, he worked unceasingly. Scene at Death Bed. The scene at the deathbed was de- scribed today by one of those present. As the last hour drew near the Presj- dent sat on the bedside, clasping Mrs. Wlison’s hand, while Mrs. McAdoo, Mrs Sayre and Miss Wilson knelt on the floor, their eyes upon their mother’s face. Dr. Grayson and a nurse came and went silently and the President looked beseachingly to the doctor for a sign of encouragement. No words were spoken. Although Mrs. Wiison was un- conscious, she smiled. Her breathing grew fainter and fainter, and Dr. Gray- son realized that the end was only a matter of minutes. His thoughts seemed to be communicated to the family and they. moved nearer. At 5 o’clock exactly, a clock chimed softiy from the executive offices. Dr. Grayson leaned over his patient and as he realized the end had come he spoke Wilson's daughters. sobbed. The body was kept today in the room where Mrs. Wileon died, in the south- western corner of the White House, sec- ond floor, overlooking the Potomac, The President went into the room at midnight last night and again several ‘times today, and sat alone. He was leit undisturbed. Other members of the family went in from time to time, but even intimate friends were kept out. Every effort was made by his friends to divert the President from his grief. ‘Flowers began to arrive at the White all walks of life. Among messages of sympathy were those of Cardinals Gibbons and O’Connell and of clérgymen of all denominations and organizations, of many kinds.

You aré, I think, premature in announcing the defeat of the German legions, the destruction of the German nation, the triumph of the allied English, Franks and Slavs. | You are, I think, unfair in your analysis of the causes of the war. 92 The German people, ringed around with racial and industriel enemies, have evolved during the past 40 years a social, industrial. political and mil- itary organization best suited to their needs, in that situation. In a land not rich in natural re- sources, they have made out to feed, clothe and netter 66,000,000 persons on only 210,000 square miles, and have through ‘co-operation, led by their governments, provided a guaranty for all against want in sickness or age, accident or death. They have built and maintained under public control the best, safest, most economical railways in the world. They have created by public effort meg- mificent harbors. They. have built the cleanest, most humane, best administered and most genu- ay democratic cities in the world, in which the aim of government has been to insure the th, the education, the comfortable housing, tlie entertainment, the cheap transportation and § continuous employment of the masses of the snshi They have made their army the: | foremost school in bodily fitness and men- ‘al for their men.

The outcome of the league’s work emphasizes the soundness of the Post-Dispatch’s criticism of its methods. Doubtless many voters resented at Voters do not want to exchange party bosses for nonpartisan bosses. They do not want their candidates selected for them in star chamber by an irresponsible committee. They want to be informed about candidates. They want to exer- cise intelligent judgment. The Municipal Voters’ League must work in the open and justify ite work with sound measures. It could probably induce good men to run for office and having openly persuaded good men to offer themselves ask citizens to support them for sufficient reasons. It might openly condemn candidates whose records prove them to be unfit for office and give reasons therefor without dan- ger of Iibel. i The best work of a league of this kind is in organizing and directing the independent vote. But to be efficient it must co-operate with, not dictate, to voters. It must prove its motives by taking the voters into its confidence. The inde- pendent vote is the hope of the city for good gov- ernment. Boss control in local elections must be broken. 4 = = 5 „In. WILSON’S DEATH. The heart of the nation goes out to President Wilson and his family in their great loss. Per- sonal poignant grief for such a bereavement cannot be increased or dimifished; yet there is a sense of profound regret that Mrs. Wilson should have passed away in the middle of Mr. Wilson's administration, just as he was complet- ing the heaviest work of his term, which laid upon him unceasing care and labor. He is de nied sharing with his devoted wife the fruits of successful toil. The blow falls on the living—she has passed beyond this world’s “joy and moan.” Mrs. Wilson adorned the place to which ‘her husband's election called her, She set a shining éxample of simplicity and modesty, grace an good works. : 4 **CANNED’’ STRATEGY OF WAR EXPERTS. “It is a delusion,” said Gen. Helmuth von Moltke in his history of the Franco-Prussian War, “to believe that a plan of war may be laid for a prolonged period and carried out in every part. The first collision with the enemy changes the situation entirely.” 0 For 40 years French strategists have been lay- ing plans for the protection of France from at- tack. They have figured out and committed to paper what ought to be done if the attack came via Italy or via Switzerland or the old line of Metz or via Luxemburg and Belgitim. And for the same period Berlin strategists, when they had nothing else in particular to do, have put in their time planning the reinvasion of France, which they believed would some day be inevita- ble. If we are to credit the admiring eulogists of Germany's wonderful preparedness, they had it all figured out what the fiftieth day after mobilization was to bring, what was to be done when the frontier had been passed by 30 miles, what exact number of men would be requisite to capture this and that stronghold. But an unexpected courage and patriotism on the part of little Belgium has changed the whole problem for both sides. Berlin must devise new methods of attack. Paris finds defense simpli- fied. Experte have wasted a lot of time on “canned” strategy during these 40 years. == Dg i hn i WITHOUT STOCK MAREETS. Men who make their living by betting on the rise or fall of stocks and bonds are hard hit by the closing of the world’s stock markets. But the average man doesn’t seem greatly to miss them. He begins even to ask himself if it is not possible that water would run, grass grow, cattle fatten, corn ripen and cotton mature if these centers of speculation were to remain closed or to be restricted to registering bona fide sales. = — OLD BUT GOOD METRICAL ADvicE.

CONCERNING WAR NEWS. Our German-American fellow citizens, who are protesting against the character ot the European war news published in the newspapers, should bear in mind the news situation. The newspapers tare printing all the news they can get; that is, all honest, unbiased newspapers. Unfortunately It is needless to assure Post-Dispatch readers that news is neither colored nor suppressed in this office. The Post-Dispatch has access through the Associated Press and its allied press services in Europe and through a great staff of corre spondents to the best available sources of news. We print every word that ean be relied upon. We are exhausting every resource to give the pub- lic complete and accurate news reports. = — * . TOLEDO FOR MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP Toledo’s voters, in a referendum held Tuesday upon an ordinance proposing to issue $8,000,000 of bonds to municipalize the consolidated street rail- way, electric light and power plants of that city, cast an affirmative majority of 1188 votes. 8 The ordinance carried in 11 of the 15 city wards; it lost in four —the wards where machine poll- ticians are strongest and the purchasable vote largest, by reason of the poverty of the infab- itants. i The issue will now, of course, be fought out in the courts, since the private owners of the prop- erties resist municipal ownership. : But the people of Toledo have made it plain th want no more franchises granted to privately owned public utilities, and that they want public ownership of those utilities just as quickly as it can be established. — WHY RICH AMBASSADORS, Americans stranded in European countries, un- able to buy food-or shelter or transportation with the traveler’s checks, many of them “broke” by the sudden inflation of the cost of absolute nec- essaries or the closing of avenues of communica- tion, will be able when they get back home to offer at least one perfectly sound argument in fa- vor of sending only rich men to represent the United States as Ambassadors in foreign coun- tries. An empty-pocketed intellectual giant could perhaps reflect more honor upon this country in a foreign embassy than the average mere multi- millionaire; but he could never have gone down into his own jeans and brought up, as the rich ambassadors are doing, the price of temporary relief for his ill-plighted countrymen. —— — W VIOLET RAYS IN WAR. An Italian lately announced the invention of an apparatus by which spectrum rays outside of the violet rays could be used to discharge ex- plosives at a distance of several miles. Is this apparatus a part of the confident Kaiser’s war equipment? Will the magazines on the ships and at the fortified places of his enemies and the begin soon exploding from mysterious causes? Is red war to become variegated with violet? =~ * '-— = = A SOOIAL USE OF NATIONAL OREDIT. If a way can be found to set the nation’s credit back of the Southern cotton farmers, in the crisis done with all possible promptness. What they need is a resource of cash or credit which will enable them to hold 6,000,000 bales of this year’s cotton crop until the close of the war, or the restoration of ocean transportation enables them to sell it at normal prices to the Huropean spinners. If forced to sell their crop in the immediate fu- ture, at prices reflecting the utter absence of the customary Buropean market for one-half of it, the farmers of the South will suffer a loss of not less than $150,000,000. This loss will not fall, as many at the North may suppose, chiefly upon, rich plant- ers, but almost wholly upon hundreds of thou- sands of small cultivators, the poorest-paid farm- ers, as a group, in America, and the least able to sustain guch a loss. The way should be found to protect them, and quickly. 2 drop deadly charges of high explosives.

Her father and mother were poor, but they managed to make Agnes comfort- able. She had a wheel chair and a pot of flowérs in her window and several books which she knew by heart. But the dearest thing in the world -o Agnes-emeepting her father and mother was a doll, whose name was Flora. Flora had been given to Agnes on? Christmas: by the lady for whom her mother did laundry work. One lady sent Agnes a box of odd Lends of lace and trimmings and she had made Flora a beautiful evening gown and coat, so that Flora seemed to Agnes to be a very rich lady, and she never was permitted to pass a day without attending some social function. At least, she was dressed for it and then put in a chair behind Agnes, where she remained for a while and then re- turned to tell her little mother all about the affair and the handsome gowns that the lovely ladies wore. One day while Agnes was looking through the paper for a reception or wedding which Flora could attend sh: read the notice of a fair to be held for crippled orphan children, and contr:- butions were asked in the way of ar- ticles to be sold at the fair. GNES thought for a long time about the little cripples. She did not think for an instant that she was poor, and, indeed, she seemed very rich when she thought of the poor chil- dren who were crippled and without a father or mother. wish I could give something to the fair,” she thought, but my books are old and this pot of n is not growing well just now.’ Ther her heart gave a hard thump.

She held her close in her arms and the tears fell fast on Flora’s head. Then she put her on the table in front of her. Yes, she would give Flora to the fair. She called her mother and told her what she had de- cided to do. “But what will you do without her?’ asked her mother. “I have you and father,“ replied Ag- nes, “and I have a home and the poor orphans. have nothing. Flora is the only thing I have to give and she must go.“ And so Flora and her extensive ward- robe were packed in a box and taken to the fair. The lady who had given the doll to Agnes learned the story of the gift from Agnes’ mother, and when the fair opened she told the story of the little cripple girl who sent her only doll to help the children who were more needy than herself. HARES were sold, and when the fair closed Flora earned more money for the little cripples than anything else at the fair. The gentleman who held the lucky number that won Flora and all her lovely clothes was a rich bachelor. He took Flora home, and the next day a big team stopped in front of Agnes’ home. “This box does not belong here,“ said Agnes’ mother, as the driver brought in a large packing case. Fes, ma’am, it does,“ said the man. “IT was told to unpack it and set if up in the room where the little crippled girl sat.“ And what do you suppose was in the huge box? A doll house almost as high as the window Where Agnes sat. It had four rooms, and in the hall in a chair pat Flora, dressed in her street clothes, and in her hand she held a note ad- dressed to Agnes.“ Agnes opened it anti read: “To the little girl who thought of others and gave her doll to help the crippled or- phans.

They chose a place where there were trees and birds and flowers and sea—an alluring spot. When they ar- rived they met some other women friends, and mer- ry parties were planned. But each of these women had a different vaca- tion. One woman, wh») was employed at sewing in a large establishment, had been looking’ forward to this vacation all the year. Every morning she would go down to the beach, enjoy the bath and the sunshine and go back to the little hotel where they were stopping, sit in the shade of the porch and listen to the birds in the trees, and then per- haps go in the afternoon for a sall, and retire early, to begin the next day with similar recreation and change. How she revelled in it all! It was so different from her work in the city, sitting sewing sleeves. Every day cio gained strength. Her pale cheeks be- gan to gather color.

A few times she dipped in the ocean be- cause friends were going. In the main, however, she was so busy buying that she did NOT HAVE TIME to watch the birds or the trees or the flowers or the sunsets.

She had bought everything her meager allow- ance would permit. leaving, and was really GLAD to go home, She looked forward to her work with DREAD. She had changed her work only in scene. In fact, she had worked harder and spent more energy than she did at home. She had not relaxed a single moment except when she was asleep. These are two kinds of vacations that are taken by many, many people. Which kind is yours? First Sewing Machine ) } , nee T= fifst successful sewing machine was the invention of Elias Howe, who was born at Spencer, Mass., A years ago. After a meager country school educa- tion he became a mechanic, and he was only a youth when he began his efforts to invent a method of sewing by machine. English, French and Amer- ican inventors held similar ambitions, but their machines were not suctess- ful. A machine that would really sew was completed by Howe in 184 and patented the next year. Royalties from his in- vention nade him a multimillionaire be- fore he died in 1867. Plans for honoring Howe on the occasion of the centenary of his birth, six. years hence, are al- ready being considered. @The wealth of the United Kingdom in 1814 was, computed at about $12,500,000,000, while a conservative estimate would place it now at about $85,000,000, an in- crease of 58 per cent, while population has grown per cent. The income of the British le in this period has in- creased 700 per cent—from $1,500,000,000 to $12,000,000,000. in enh A set d She did not regret |e France and Sardinia also gave Aus- tria a crushing defeat in 1859—in a war in which the general fighting lasted less than a month. This list does not include Italy's earlier and feebler strug- gles for liberty, against Austria, as in 1848-49, etc. In July, 1870, France and Prussia went to war. The general fighting in that war lasted barely a month. Of course, the siege of Paris and other maneuvers dragged on much longer. But the actual clash in the field began early in Atigust and ended early in Sep- tember. The Russo-Turkien War, six years afterward, was longer by a year or more, but the Turco-Greek war in the nineties was a matter of one.swift cam- paign. The Russo-Jap War was also comparatively brief. In our own history here is—roughly —the duration of the important wars: Revolutionary War, eight years; War of 1812, two years and eight months; Mexican War, two years and ll weeks; Civil War, four years; Spanish War, seven and a half months (with the bulk of the fighting done in two and a half). All but one of the forsedine tere duels between two nations. The last German quarrel spread until it involved almost .every nation on earth, and is known to history as the “Thirty Years’ War.“ 1 So, with a very few exceptions, we see that the more modern the war the shorter it is apt to be, especially when only Central Europe’ is involved.

The fu exposure of Johnson’s frame-up with Moran, as published in LEcho des Sports, has finished the black cham- * career in France, and as he's arred practically everywhere else in the world, he’s through with the sport, L’Eeho prints what is said to be a facsimile of a typewritten agreement given Moran’s manager by Johnson, which reads as follows: ' June 27, 1914.

One spectator of the fight, describing it to me a week ago, said: “Moran was to He down in the eighth round, and I was let in on it, so I could get some bets down. in the eight Moran, who had only been stalling along, seemed to hesitate and be undecided.

Situation Appears to Be Clearing; Prices on Street“ Fairly Steady. —ʒʒ —— By Leased Wire From the urea of the — e Post, In its copyrighted finanelal ern todas, says: ae nancial review “Interest in nancial deve of the day oncé more n don, rather than on New York. The London overnight news comprised the suspension of the Bank of England Act for the firat time since the Overend- Gurney panic of 1866, and the decreeing of one month's “moratorium’’ on finan- clal indebtedness, which has never been resorted to, in London, since financial and commercial relations were created, after the Napoleonic wars. “Nothing more forciby illustrates the complete uprooting of tions and the absolute disappearance of habitual nts of view, since this 1 War egan, than the matter-of-fact indiffer- ence with which these portenuous. an- nouncements were received by the finan- cial world today. “Why England had to resort to such expedients was sufficiently indicated by the Bank of England's weekly state- ment, published on resumption of or- dinary business in Lombard street to- day. It is fairly safe to say that no such extraordinary. reduction, in the bank’s reserve, or im ita total stock of — witnessed reserve of gold and notes paid in 3 been redu Bank of England. Liabilities having in- creased in the same seven days, the ratio of reserve to Hability falls to the figure of 14% per cent, against 0 per cent last week. One must go back to the panic of 1866, when an unrestrained domestic run on the bank occurred, to parallel these figures. The reserve ra- tio then, for a single week, fell to 3% per cent. net is & — suspended “Suspension of bank act of 184, as is generally known, hot necessarily sus- n of specie payments at the bank. British Government has declared that it will not under present conditions resort to that expedient: The bank act requires that every note outstanding be govered in full by gold in the institu- on's vaults; its suspension gives the th t to increase its note cir- out increasing the — d behind it. The gold“ holdin might go a good deal lower than 27, — nds sterling now held in the bank, still leave t notes as well sup- * as are the notes of the banks of rene or Germany or the notes of our own Governments. The very low ratio of reserve against deposit liabilities is, however, another matter, and this un- doudtediy had a part in the Govern- ment’s action on a ‘moratorium.’ “As for the moratorium itself, that announcement comes with less of shock since it follows a three-day arbitrary deferment of indebtedness and an actual month's postponement of the sort in France and Germany. „It naturally does not apply to the contract dues of life, such as taxes and insurance; but ed to protect a banking com- munity whose daily maturing indebted- „ on transactions with. conti- nental markets. “At the moment one can only joctu rally whether t one month deferment will de sufficient, what will be the process of just- ment when the moratorium is termin- ated, and how our own international banking engagements will be affected: in meantime. “The wheat market, which was once more the central point of interest as an phases of. the then ad- ef wheat from both coasts for the then Page oF the Brad- street figures, were . 6,500, bushels—a t dut comparing with revised figures for last week 9,614, - 000 bushels, which broke all weekly rec- ords in our history. “But the Government's monthly e crop] Ar report, which was given out today, h influence not altogether determin- The report was unfavorable so far as concerns the prospect on spring} Vio wheat and corn. Spring wheat's con- dition, lowered from 92% to 76%, caused reduction, in the estimated yield, from 000 bushels a month ago to 236,- ow. This with today’s — el estimate on the winter eat still leaves a total indicated crop 000,000 bushels, and in view of the present situation of the markets the reduced expectations in the Northwest po have a very serious bearing on af- airs. con- om, ae eld, — — NEW YORK, Aug. 7.

And well attendance. “For the dimple but a simple oper- ation is needed,“ said the doctor. “Show the lady the pictures of Mrs. Blank before and after we gave her a dimple.”’ The head nurse got out some photo- graphs showing a pretty young wom- an with a mole, which in the second picture was transformed. into the most fetching ‘of dimples. Mrs. Jarr and Mrs. Mudridge-Smith could not repress exclamations of as- they might they were not present when the first „ form the mole. The picture with the dimple being taken before“ and not after,“ although it was labelled to the contrary. “How old would you think I am?“ asked the head nurse, as she took away the mole-turned-into-a-dimple pic- ture and brought two more photos la- belled “Before and After the Parisian Paraffine Treatment for Saddlenose.”’ Mrs. Jarr said. the nurse couldn't be a day over 2%, and Mrs. Mudridge- Smith thought, owing to the serenity of poise of the head nurse, that she might be 26. Jam 82 years of age, said the head nurse with a smile. I shall always Mook 28, although I am 82 while I am With the great Dr. Cosmos! The doc- tor affected to be covered: with modesty, that finest trait of genius, and stepped over to the instrument cabinet to get the dimple-scapel—which by the way looked like a nickelplated apple corer, being a being filled with protruding putty to pointed scoop-like affair. Drawn fer the Post-Dispatch By MAURICE KEFIEN, | DISCOVERED The head nurse followed him over and Mrs. Jarr could have sworn she hissed in the seeming head of the er- tablishment's ear, Parker, you big rum! If vou booze on this job I'll can you!” “She does not need skinning, does she, doctor?” was what the head nurse did say aloud, however. And the great Cosmos replied: ‘‘Cer- tainly not! If we could transplant such a complexion, Mrs. Von Garlick, the great dill pickle importer millionaire’s wife, would give us $10,000 a square inch for it! No, all this beautiful lady needs is the most simple manipulation to off- set a threatened droop in this classic contour!“ And the great Cosmos again gave Mrs. Mudridge-Smith a profession- al chuck under the chin. A simple, simple manipulation,” he repeated. “But not without the static treat- ment,“ said the head nurse. The doctor took a step or two away and looked out of the window and hummed a song. “The fact is,” whispered the nurse to Mrs. Mudrdige-Smith, ‘‘your case is so that the doctor wouldn't take it, espe- cially as he would have to give you a half-hour every day from Mrs. Astor- Countess Panne-de-Menage—though the Countess would be furious“, “What do I care for those women? I’m as good as any of them!” snapped Mes. Mudridge-Smith. „Perhaps you think I could not pay for the treat- ment”’— “Oh, we wouldn't think of saying such a thing; pray do not let us discuss mon- ey or terms,” stuttered the great Cos- mos, as though embarrassed. “The easiest way is to sign a con- tract,” whispered the head nurse pro- ducing a. printed blank and a fountain pen; “with a contract you get the static treatment at the rate of $20 alone. The golden imported olive oil to massage with is $2 an ounce. Yes; sit in the chair, please. Doctor, kindly attend to the lady! And Clara Mudridge-Smith started in to get a beauty treatment in the establishment patronized by dames of the grande monde exclusively. Both the doctor and the nurse told her so. No Punch to It.

When his little sister began her studies Herbert watched her progress with in- terest. One day he confided to his mother. “Ruthie showed me her new Maden book today, and it’s the queerest thing you ever saw! Why, it just says, ‘Is it a dog? It is a dog. Can‘the dog run?
