The fight In the annate upon Jonea and Warburg hh member* of the Fed eral Reserve Hoard strikes ua ns a moat deplorable waste of force nnd tlma In unnecessnry friction, Tha president's choice of these men has been earefuly and deliberately made. I/e may be mistaken in them, but it Is not likely that he Is, because of a'l men he Is the one most respon sible and the one most anxious to see tha Federal Hescrva Board presided over by men who by natural sagacity and training are most gitted to con duct affairs ably. In the problem of choosing men there ta bound to be an Immense va riety of opinions and an Immense amount of prejudice, but If those who are so stubbornly opposing President Wilson's choh e think they can find tha right men for the responsibilities of the Federal Reserve Hoard, outside of all oonnections with monopoly and big business they are adventuring Into a field of experiment at tbn. Part of the opposition to Mr. Jones and Ur. Wu rhuig comes from unreas oning prejudice and part of tt springs from a wish to see the reform of the currency system go aground. It would ba a shame Indeed l r earnest, though narrow advocates of these reforms should play Into the hands of those whose chief ileaire is to defeat them. Big business, when It sins, sins egregtouely, hut It Is the height' of fa naticism to maintain that the business men of big business do not average as high In honesty and trustworthiness as the men of little business. Natu rally the ablest men In the country are to tie found among those who have large responsibilities. It I* a surprise to find democrats showing such a narrow and destructive spirit. BACK TO BLUE BACK SPELLER. If the reactionary spirit In (leorgls will Just confine Itself to the re-htrlti of blue back spelling, progress w ill not ha hurt. We can still limp along at a pretty fair pace under the burden of ol<l fashioned accuracy In spelling To be sure this fancy for good spall ing Is conservatism In Its most intense form. The enthusiasm which has been amused for the blue back speller tells a tale. It shows that men of more than middle age have a voice In (leor glo, that the traditions of the old school are tempering the heedless ex uberances of the new. tThs blue back speller takes us hack to days when school »«i no Joke, when tha greatest lesson the schools taught was tha lesson of hard work. No child pith a naturally logical tendency of mind t» a good speller. English spell ing Is about the most capricious and contrary thing In the world and the child that finds It easy Is not general ly of tha temperament that works th'ngs out by logical deductions. In fact, good spelling is a thing which for nearly two generations has been perstsiently fought Modern ed ucators are tn favor of reformed spell ing. which of course, menus no spell ing at nIL or spelling of the any-otd whlch-awny sort The experts on ed ucation are bold and bad enough to declare that the blue bn> k speller should have no place In the public schools of today. They wnt(| the >oung folks to use their minds to better pur pose we suppose, but correct spelling la hers to stay. Thing* we have fought nn<LJ>led for live a long tlma. Those who have agonised their young minds over the caprices and contradictions of that blua back apeller. those who have bean spanked and punjehed for s fail ure to do 1t reverence are not going to see It set aside without a hard strug gle for Its reinstatement And after a'l. why pot hold to a few of the old fashioned ways? Good spelling never really Injured anybody’s mind nor permanently soured any body's disposition. It is an art which to an me persons will always seem as useless as It la dlftcuH hut It te estab lished and what’s ths use of trying to do away with ItT Besides which It Is a discipline which Vouth nods and tt Inculcates In us ths \ aluabla Ue- c of learning to expect tha unexpected. THE LITTLE HUNTERS. Charles ami Frank were cousins, and one summer they visited their grandparents, who lived on a larg larm. "This must be 1 br- place we reel about," said Frank, "where the hunt ers find the wild beasts and the rob bers sleep |n caves." "Is t s run away,'' said Frank. “I read about a boy who did I be climbed a mountain and cooked his dinner over a fire In the woods and slept In a cave.” „ There was no one In the kitchen, ard they hurl no trouble In getting what they wanted. "We better take a fish line," said Charles, as they were going out the door They had many stops, for their bun dle was heavy, and they wanted to •jo a long distance Into the woods, but after a w hile'they came to twq rocks that formed a low arch. "This will make a good cave," said Krsnk. They unpacked their bundle and ajowed the things In the cave. "Now we can go fishing," said Frank, "and we can cook the fish for our supper.” There was a lake near this cave, so they dug for worms and baited the hooks After a while Frank, who was holding the line, lelt a tug which made him get lip so quickly from his seat on the bank that ha nearly fell Into the lake. The line slipped through his hands and if Charles had not caught It, THIS WILL MAKt A GOOD CKVI would have been carried away. But they succeeded In landing a fish which looked very large to them. Their faces were red from exertion, and their eyes were big with excite ment as they labored to remove the flub from the hook. "I am afraid we are hurting It," said Charles, hn the fish flopped about. Frank did not reply. He was thinking only of getting the fish to the cave and cooking It, and, with one hard SiLEEPYTIME ®TApf TABBIE'S DREAM. On.** upon a time Tahhle went went to sletp under the hay mow and had h dream. Didn't you know cats dream? Oh, yes Indeed, and they snore too and sometimes they "mew, mew” tn their sleep. Tahhle %sd a dream and she went “mew, mew" In her sleep. I will tell what she dreamed about. She |a.v In her basket with her paws and nose curled up under her amt dreamed that ten big fat mice were right In front of her asking that she make a dinner of them, and If that was not enough there were ten more out in the barn. Tahhle said, yes, she was very hungry, ami If they wanted to he eaten she would he very glad to do It for them. So she put out her pHw for the first one and It changed Into a bin dog that chased her down the street. She was just resting and ready for the next when that bit her tall and scamp ered away. The next turned Into a big rat and looked so tough that she decided to try some of the others Two of the others made s dash for a hole and got away, ao she reached out her paw quick for at least one of the rats and woke up and found she had fallen out of her basket onto the floor and had given her head a good bump and that was what had woke her up. “Well," she said, "of course It was a dream, for 1 never heard of mice that would run up to a cat and ask to be eaten.” That night, when she went out to call on her friend. Mrs. lllackey, she told her about her dream and Mrs. Rlackey aatd: "'Don't you re member 1 told you not to eat so much at noon and then go tn sleep It ts sure to make you dream." "Yea 1 do know that you spoke of It and 1 won't do that, again, you may be sure, I am so glad you reminded me. Now come with me and i will show you where there Is a nice field of cat-nip that will make us both feel better," and off they walked, arm In ortn THE WAYS OF THRIFT (Copyright, 19H, American Society for Thrift.)

The fish slipped from his hands, and It seemed to the Jmys It ran toward the water, They caught It, and again It slipped from their grasp. At last, however, Frank put his foot on it, and removed his blouse. ''What are you going to do?” asked Charles. "Wrap It in my blouse," replied Frank. And, suiting the aetlon to the words, ho covered Mr. Fish with his waist and rolled him fast In Jts folds. They ran all the way to the rave, and prepared the fish as well ns they knew, then they started a fire and put the wish on two sticks and held it over the flames; the stick caught fire and had to be changed so often that the fish did not look very appe tizing when they finally decided It was done. But It tasted good to the hungry lit tle fishermen, and, although they had many things that they had brought from their grandmother's pantry, nothing tasted so good as the burned ftst). The sun had set when they finished eating, and as they did not have any dishes, there was no work to be done. "Let us go to bed," said Frank, "then we can get up early and hunt for a lion,” They spread out the blanket and then rolled themselves In It, and in a short time they were asleep. All this time their grandfather and grandmother were looking all over the farm for them, and when tha supper hour hail passed and it was dark thek' grandfather and the farm hands took a lantern and the dog and began searching for them. It was late in the evening when Frank was awakened by hearing some thing outside the cave. The sound came nearer and nearer, and then It came to the entrance of the cave. “It may be a lion," thought Frank, as he saw the form of an ani mal, and It crept closer and closer un til It touched his face. With a loud cry Frank tried to free himself from the blanket, hut the space Inside the cave was small and then the blanket held him. / His cry awakened Charleß, and by that time they heard voices outside. They crawled out and there was their grandfather wdth the dog standing beside him, wagging his tail as though to say, "Here they are; I found thein.c "We were playing hunter," explained Charles; "we want to stay here all night so we can shoot a lion In ths morning.” But Frank had got over wishing tl be a hunter. The dog had taken the hunter spirit out of htm for that night, and he walked along very meek ly beside his grandfather, holding very tight to his hand. The next morning the sun was some hours high before either of the boys opened their eyes, and Frank was glad to find himself In bed.

The last report of the New York Postal Savings Bunk has some Inter eating facts which bear on the rela tive thrift of foreigners and Amer icans, It above that Italian born resi dents lead immigrants front other countries by a wide margin, while the | deposits of foieign horn white persons lead those of Americans by sixty-three and two-tenths per cent. In dollars and cents this means that white per sons born in this country have in the government hank only 1466.038, as compared with 12,146,688 by foreign er*. "Of the 12.663.674 on deposit June 30th, last" the report of Edward M. Morgan postmaster of New York City, stated, "139.678 was deposited by ne groes and only $2,036 by Chinese and Japanese. The average principal per depositor for native white persons was $43; of foreign horn whites. $115; for negroes. s6l. end for all other non white $65. Classifying the depositors by sex it was found that 20,634, or 65.5 per cent are males and 9,604, or 31.6 per cent females. By country of birth foreign born depositors are listed as follows: Italy, 5.262; Russia, 4.698; Great Brit ain, 3,149: Austria, 2,358; and Ger many, 1,076. Depositors from these j countries numbered 16,548, and com prise about ninety per cent of the 18,586 foreign bom depositors." Many of the most successful men In this country were immigrants com ing to this land of plenty penniless.
