BANKS Amy SWINDLERS. : A TreeLor so ago a New Jersey man, wintering la ITorida, was fleeced out of $75,000 by a gang of swindlers. The money represented the savings of . a life-time, and was drawn from a bank in order that It might be turned over to the thieveki" - t A fewdays later the newspapers told of a similar case In which a resident of Ohio narrowly e&caped the loss of $15,000, also drawn from a bank, under similar circumstances. .A large part of the money recently lost In the falhiieiof a string of bucketshops had previOTalyTtptwed safely la banking Institutions. If to? .were In the banking business, we thtr.Tg TTCjsriould find la theso and similar news items material for Interesting and business-producing advertising. , Probably not one cent of the money which passes sip- the hands of swindlers and shady stock-brokerage houshes would be lost If the owners wer to tako tie very airnplo precaution of consulting their bankers before Investing In gct-riclv quick enterprisea and worthless securtlea' . "It Is part of the tmslneas of bankers' to advise their clients about such matters. This part of the banking business ought to be more widely advertised la the newspapers. Itts not to the Interest of reputable financial houses to prevent tha publiofrom being fleeced by unscrupulous ogg)cza of other peoples money, to the cod that the funds now wasted should bo wisely sad safely employed? And is there any better way to accomplish this than by' heJj-tmdastruetimoewspaper advertising?""""""
His employers put this kind of value on Mr. Ruth's home runs or they would not pay him that amount of mnoey, but there is a value to baseball itself that these same employers might heed. Mr. Ruth is a basebaall specialist. His specialty is these home runs. He hits the ball and it goes over the wall $500. There Is some pretty plain handwriting on that kind of a wall for all of the games', magnates. Mr. Ruth is paid $500 for hitting the ball because he not only goes all the way round himself, but makes other things go around, to-with: turnstiles. However, organized baseball might take Into account right now, before it is too late, that there is something else going around, which is a sentiment among the fans that baseball of other days that was for "our side" and civic supremacy has been going down into the mire of commercialism. Baseball cannot be played in the mire. There is a sentiment that "the game" has given away to "the gate." There is a sentiment that baseball that once was a game for blood is today in danger of becoming one of blood money. The bleachers pay for these $500 home runs.
THEY HOPE IT WILL PAY. Attacking "the increasing decolletage both upward and downward" of woman's dress, silk producers of France suddenly awaken to their duty to champion feminine morals. Of course they hope to make it pay. In the early days of this country cotton was more expensive than wool and little clothing was worn made of cotton. But more and more cotton was raised, and there came a year when the cotton mills faced a crisis. Cotton was so cheap, and there was so little demand for the cloth, that the mills were threatened with ruin. So they hit updn the idea of bolstering up the market for their product by inducing the Chinese to increase their shirts a couple of inches. There is nothing altruistic about the French silk producers' concern for the ladies' morals.
IT MAY be literally true that Mme. Matzenaur picked her husband "out of the gutter," he being a chauffeur and so called upon to "get out and get under" on occasions. But why didn't she get him a better car?

"I once had a small affair with a lion escaped from a menagerie. He bounded on me -.8 he got elear of his enclosure and, well, of course, I wasn't armed." "What on earth did yon do? chorused the others. "Well," retorted the little man, "I just seised hist lower jw with my right hand and his upper jaw with my left hand, and held hi mouth open till ha gtarved." "The Japan of Lafcadio Ream and Loti is no more," said Hamilton Hartley, the author-traveler, at a Washington dinner party. "Labor troubles, you know. "You nave heard of the Japanese rickshaw runners? These men trot between the shafts of a rickehaw at the rata of five and six miles an hour. I mean to say they used to trot at that rate. Since they're been unionised it's hard to get them out of a walk. "Once, having forgotten my Talis. I offered a Tokio rickshaw man a double fare if he'd hurry back to the hotel for it. Well, as he galloped down the road hib fellow workers stared, after him in amazement, and one of them yelled: "TTey, what are you running far ? Aren't yoa working today ? ' "
