NOVEMBER.
November'-’a frost is on tho. IiIUb,
Tho woods nro brown nnd sour,
By babbling brooks and rhythmic rills
No more tho flowers appear;
Tho goldenrod and cosmos bloom
Aro withered, cold nnd dend,
But whilo tho earth is bluek with "glooip
Tho stars shine overhead.
November skies our thoughts invito
To realms wore constant glow
Immortal 1 blossoms of the night
That in God’s garden grow:
Though Dentil’s cold hand tho flowors
furled,
Their souls are In tho skios,
And from the shadow of tho world
We seo bright angel eyes.

WHERE AMERICA WAS NAMED
Many readers who koop BCrap-bookH
will bo glad of this morsel of curious
loro.
On April 25, 1507, the learned bonds
of the University of St. Dio, in Lorraine,
decided, incorrectly, that Amerigo Ves
pucci wns entitled to ttie honor of dis
covery, Christopher ColumbuB having
only reached tho IslniiflB of tho West
Indies, and that the wostern hemisphere
should benr Ills nnme. Tho name
America” wns, as a inattor of fact,
first used In the book “ Cosmogrnphlno
Introductio, ” by Martin Wnldsoomullor,
professor of cosmography at the uni
versity.
It hns sinco been shown that Amer
igo Vespucci wns precodod by both Chris
topher ColumbuB and John Cabot, but
it was too Into—tho new world had boon
dubbed “America,” nnd tho fnct adver
tised in print. Tho liouso whore the
mooting was held nt which tho classical
error wns made still Blands at St. Dio
(VoBgos,) and is nnnunlly visited by
many tourists, especially those from both
North and South America.
Banco tho error of learned mon is re
sponsible for America being named after
Amerigo Vespucci, who wns given nn
honor lie clearly did not deserve.

THE BUSINESS SITUATION.
N, Y. Financial Chronicle.
For flvo years this country Hub boon
moro than prosperous. Everyone lias
boon milking money—employers and
workers alike. Wages have gone up uiid
up until' their present level is beyond
tho wildest fancy of labor leaders in
1914. From tho position of a debtor
country, America bus taken a lending
place 'among tho creditor nations of the
world, nnd now foreign requisitions on
our wealth nro being mmlo dally, Yet
tlm Irritating fact remains that, for moBt
of us, our extra wages or profits nro
bnlnncod "by an increased cost of living,
During tho war tho sharp lino drawn
between essontinl nnd non-ossontinl in
dustries almost eliminated tho country’s
reserves for ninny nrticlos wo normally
eoimtdor nocossnry to our comfort and
happiness. Individuals also hold tholr
purchases to a minimum. Bociiubo of
our depleted stocks of things consid
ered non-ossontinl during tho war, nnd
because of Europe's insistent demand
for goods, a buying movement bus de
veloped which has coriiplotoly outrun
production. As a eomioqiionco prices
have boon pushod up to lovols novor ex
perienced by this generation.
Individually wo make moro money;
in our hearts we fool • that wo ought to
bo nblo to save moro or afford luxuries
formorly beyond our reach. Whan we
linvo difficulty In doing oitlior, wo fool
that something Is wrong and somebody
Is to blame. Wo do not stop to cnlou-
Into how much our ndvancod wages or
salaries and our shortonod , hours have
nddocT to tho soiling cost of tho things
wo produco, distribute and consumo,
Wo liavo hoard and road so much about
tho billions mid billions of dollars worth
of goods sont abroad, of enormous trade
balaticos “In our favor,” that wo begin
to wondor whnt hns linpponod to our
own particular share in' tho national
dividend. If nil the world is in ilobt
to America, wo nsk, why haven't wo
moro money oursolvost
In trying to flml tho answer, wo over
look four important fucts. Flret, a large
part of this foreign debt to us repre
sent war loans of our Govormnent to
other govormnonts;. it does not belong
to individuals. Socond, our oxports
In recent yeare have boon mado up
largely of foodBtuffB, raw materials mid
munitions, t)in profits on wliieh linvo g6n<
ratlior directly to farmors mid other re
stricted groups' of prodneorB. Third,
much of tho national dividend hns boon
absorbed in wngo and salary advances,
high rents and heavy expenditures for
now construction and equipment for
toinporary war uses. Fourth, tho oner'
nious shipments of foods, clothing, shoos
mid other necessaries to Europe—-which
must continue for n time until Europe
hns again restored something like a bnl-
unco botwoen production nnd consump
tion—linvo been rosponBiblo for the rise
in prices which hns neutralised tho ad
vance in wngoB, Biilarlos and profits.
A teacher wns instructing a class in
English mid cnllod on a Hinall boy namod
Jimmy Brown.
“James,” sho said, “writo on th#
board, ‘Richard can rldo tho mulo tf
ho wants to.”
“Now,” continued tho toucher, whon
Jimmy had finished writing, “can you
find a bottor form for that sontoncof”
‘Yes, am’am, I think I can,” was
tho prompt answer, ‘“Richard can rldo
tho mulo if tho mulo wants him to.’ ”
’‘Dubloigh says ho doesn't know
whotlior to mnrry a beautiful girl or a
sensible girl.”
‘Ho noodn’t worry. A beautiful girl
could do bottor and a sensible girl will
know bottor.”
