fact that there are roads operating through Hammond who pay their employes better than Monon employes are paid, and that other roads give their employes no recognition for long service, does not enter Into the discussion. The point that can be made in this day of economic readjustment is that
a man who Is worthy of a medal for
long and faithful service is worthy of
a pension. In a way a few American corporations have made a beginning which Is however not to be compared
with the regulated systems that the
working classes have demanded and
secured in England and Germany. These foreign systems, we realize, are
open to adverse criticism too, but1 how many years will elapse before we In these United States shall have obtained a federal law on the subject providing 1'or a system on a par with those across the Atlantic? If employers could be made to see the economy of the old age pension system as well as the employe, it would become a fact within the next five years. Under our present industrial conditions the moral law is with the employe. His employer recognizes his loyalty his faithfulness and his good service. He even presents him with a medal for It, and yet
while the one has grown into a gigantic corporation, whose pros
perity, let it be understood adds to
the prosperity of all .the other has
merely existed, probably gone backward If he met with the misfortune
to which the Individual is heir to.
Who will deny that one is responsi
ble for the condition of the other and
vise versa? Who can .when one of
the parties recognizes hi3 obligation
with a medal and the other admits
his position?
And fire insurance companies estimate the fire loss of the past fifteen years at two billions of dollars. Efficiency experts believe that labor in America is but seventy-three per cent efficient and capital but thirty per cent, and that a scientific management of our Industries all told, would mean an increase in total capital of twenty-two billions. Here's a chance for the high school graduate! A golden opportunity for those seeking a foothold!
CANADA'S CROPS. General disappointment seems to be felt throughout Canada over the crop report. Although there Is an increase, it is smaller than was anticipated. The total estimated wheat production this year is 207,575,000 bushels
as compared with laa.aab.uuu
bushels last year ,an increase of 4 1-4
per cent. Oats show a total yield of
391,418,000 bushels and an average yield of 4 0.57 bushels as compared
with 361,733,000 bushels and an
average yield of 39.25 bushels. Bar
ley yield of 4 4,348,000 bushels.
For the three northwest provinces
the tota lyleld of spring wheat is estimated at 183,832,000 bushels of
fall wheat at 5,264,000 bushels, of
oats a 239,595,000 bushels, of barley
a 27,904,000 bushels of rye at 686,-
000 bushels, of flax at 14,808,000
bushels.

PEACHES AND MATRIMONY.
A new and Infallible test of the
character of an intended husband Is announced by a French writer.
Varying the old maxim, it may be
summarized as "Watch the brute feed." Tenderness and sympathy are
lacking in the man who bolts his food, immoderate fondness for sweets
betoken a nagger, and the best test
of all is to watch the fiance's method
of eating a peach. The perfect husband Is he who swallows the dainty elowly, and "peels it with the air of
an artist."
day; for the new girl is the most
striking of modern social phenomena,
and the most conspicuous. She is
the newest thing out. She has chang
ed because her environment has changed. Economic conditions, with
their inevitable influence upon the
home, have forced her into the in
dustries. The self-supporting girl
could not possible be the same creature as the supported girl, in either appearance, manner or character.
Cut the changed environment has
not lessened the charm she exerts upon the youth of the opposite sex.

MELANCHOLY DAYS. Gloomy days have descended upon the statesmen who have been fighting for the pe-pull. Witness the sad fate of that noted tobacco-chewing legislator, the Hon. Battleaxe Castleman, who was ousted from the Gary common council. Of
later date look at the ungrateful way
in which a great state has discarded its humble servant, t the Hon. Bill
Sulzer.
Bill Sulzer's love for the pe-pull
extended even to have twelve spittons in the executive mansion at Al
bany?
If the cruel hand of fate hadn't in
terferred Battleaxe, too, might have
risen to a post where he could have
twelve spittoons.

You all have a five or ten to throw
on the bar. But do you ever think of
paying up your subscription to the

terests us most vitally! Say, you ranchers! Bring us In a sack of potatoes or the front leg of a chicken
on that subscription. It all counts.
We have four little girls. They all

THE M0N0N MEDALS.
Within the last month, two Monon employes in Hammond, who have
worked for the company a quarter
of a century were each presented
with a medal a3 a signal honor for their loyalty and faithfulness. A
personal letter from the president of the road accompanied each medal. The recipients of the rewards are proud of them, no doubt, and their friend3 rejoice with them for the recognition that was given to honest merit. The charge that corporations are soulless is again refuted. The
WASTES. "We shaH see larger fortunes made," said Philip D. Armour, "out of the things that we now throw away." Free land is taken up. All the basic industries are under exploitation. Forests no longer exist to furnish mushroom fortunes. Everything grabable has been grabbed. American Industry has about expanded to cover its area of new resources in tho natural state. The next step is to begin making fortunes by improving the processes of
manufacturing and management. Harrington Emerson believes the railways of the nation are wasting a million dollars a day through sheer mismanagement. Senator Aldrich thinks the federal government lets three hundred millions leak away. Tractor experts calculate the annual loss through use of horses as millions.

Members interested in mileage
allowances view with alarm the evl
dent determination of the President
to keep Congress in session continu
ously until December 1, when the
regular term will begin. Under these circumstances there would be no mileage. Any attempt to get the money on the gauzy plea that thert was a "constructive recess" would
raise the cry "mileage grab!" something a statesman hates. It is grati
fying to see that despite world
changes the patriots in Washington
are guided solely by the precepts of
the fathers the Old Flag and an ap
propriation.

THE NEW GIEL. Lithe and slender, independent and self-possessed; complexion rather too
pale or sallow, perhaps partly on ac
count of the climate; looking a little
bit tired and worn; given to sitting
up too late at night and to wearing
shoes that are too thin; addicted to too much steam heat ,too much candy
and too little sleep; lacking the stay
ing power of the English girl, but alert, well-informed and exceedingly interesting. Such is the new type of American girl that Mrs. Harriot Stanton Blatch says has been evolving during the last few years. Her outline sketch of the new girl can easily be filled in lfrom observations on the street any

POLITICS IN INDIANNY. Our own confederation of cities and towns isn't the only one in the Hoosier commonwealth where politics is rampant. Over in Fort Wayne even the very editors are at each O'her's throats as this clipping from the Fort Wayne News will show: "Moreover, if Mr. Scheiman ia a hylock, an oppressor, and a crook, the publisher of the Journal-Gazette is likewise, for while it was all going- on he stood oa the side lines yelling- 'Hosanna!'"
If this isn't enough paregoric for
