Farnam Scores

President Henry W. Farnam of the American Kconomic association, who met in Washington, in his address to th' members of that body severely scored the members of rich families. "Wealthy tamili'-s often contain parasitic members, those who derive large incomes from society without rendering economic or public service in return." he said. "We often find sons of distinguished parents displaying real ability in an academic test, yet doing nothing to make th-ir lives useful or distinguished. If cows could choose a life of celibacy, we would find many a pedigreed tiuernsey chewing her cud and yielding no milk." Professor Farnam advocated an ecc-nounc expedition of exploration into the homes of the rich as well as of the poor.

SWALLOWED FALSE TEETHJETHOOGHT Suffered Intense Pain and Consented to Operation Later Molars Found COLU.MHUS, ()., Dec. 30. Unable to find a full plate of false teeth, and convinced that he had swallowed them B. .1. Brubacher. a department mana-; gor of one of the stores in Columbus, tossed on his bed in agony for a day iind night, convinced that his missing molars had resented the indignity of being swallowed ami were vengefully gnawing holes in his stomach. Physicians called in attendance were mystified at the intensity of the pain, and Brubacher was about to submit to an operation for the removal of the teeth from his digestive tract when his wife interfered and prevented the "small incision" into the stomach because of her unfounded fear that the physicians wished to excavate her husband with a steam shovel and go exploring for the teeth with a section gang. In her anxiety she had an inspiration, learned where her husband had eaten his lunch Tuesday, and, upon investigation found that the pretty cashier had been safely keeping Mr. Brubacher's teeth in her cash drawer awaiting his return to get them. He lost the teeth while eating lunch, and they were found by a waitress. The physicians cannot understand the sudden cessation of pain when Mr. Brubacher looked with unbelieving eyes upon his own teeth. Chinese Music. All Chinet-e music is Trelrd and; i screeching.

"It is a representative government that is really and i truly representative of the people.

"Every man and woman in this audience knows there is something wrong with this government, and it's for the purpose of correcting these abuses that we have had the temerity to take exception to the methods and practices of the two great political parties," vigorously asserted the speaker. "There is not an intelligent man or woman within the sound of my voice tonight but knows that we do not have a

I At this juncture Senator La Follette j paid a substantial tribute to Congress-' man Cox. w ho was in the audience, j halting in his excoriation of many of ' the state and national legislators to declare. ,hat fortunately the people of the Third Ohio Congressional District now have a representative in Congress who does really represent the public interest. "Friends, you have only the ballot box through which you can keep in touch with your Government, and you

Do you knowthat there are seven million women who earn their own living. I believe they ought to have a voice in the Gov ernment under which they live. I'll tell 'you I'm for justice and I want you to ; feel that your ballot is a vital thing." Senator La Follette gave his unqualified indorsement ot the initiative, referendum, ncall, inheritance tax, taxation of franchises and income tax.

The Wettins of England. If the king of England were to renounce the throne and resolve to become an ordinary citizen he would be called George Wettln. How does the name Wettln come to be the king's surname? This is the answer: Queen Victoria married Albert. duk of Saxe-Coburg-Goth:;. of the senior branch of the house of Saxony. The family name by which this house, dat ing frouj the middle t the tenth ecu tury. came to be known afterward was Wettin. :nid thi was and is the surname of both branches the Ernestine and Albcttine -of the house of Saxony.

Business During

Bradstreet's Report Shows that Despite Caution and Repression, a Fair Business Was Done Over the Country.

(Palladium Special.) NEW YORK. Dec. St.'. Nineteen hundred and eleven was a period of striking irregularity in trade and industry, but despite evidences of widespread caution and repression, a fair, in some lines a record, business was done. This, it is conceded, was generally at the expense of profits, which latter, rather than the aggregate oiunse of business, came in for widespread complaint. It was a ear ot generally Inch commodity prices, broken, however by some remarkable extremes of movement in staples, causing ei-pecial strain alike upon manuI'actuntm industry and consumption, and eventuating in a lessened volume of business and much iule machinery. It w.s. ! urtheiinore. a e.ir of d - citied unsettlemeiit. oi intense agnato untried methods of legal regulation. These, at first viewed with decided alarm, later lo.-t most of their terrors, and with the passing of the ear toward its cl.- somewhat san r views of politico-economic questions led to a perceptible improvement in general sentiment. For the purposes of a trade review, indeed the year should be divided into two parts, with the first eight months generally a period of disturbance, of short time in industry, of withdrawals from savings hanks, of tariff revision and tinkering, of crop scares, of closely considered hand-to-mouth buying and of slow collections, while the last four months was a period of some relaxation of caution, of growth of more cheerful feeling and of a disposition to look on the brighter side of things. There were many drawbacks to trade and industry aside from real or ; fancied obstacles finding their origin j in 1K,W- applications of old laws. The cold spring restricted retail trade, ami widespread drought and excessively hot weather from May to July damaged crops reverely, cereals and foods for man and beast alike suffering, this resulting in smaller yields of and higher prices for all crops but cotton, which because of low prices at time of heaviest movement, showed a net return smaller than has been realized fr.rvi uiini earlier frriria fT" liirhtr ill i yield. A wet harvest in the North , seriously lowered grades. In 1911 Wall street acted very much ! the part of a weather vane, extreme : permission being visible at times. while at other periods a disposition to ency was apparently to fear the worst. spreading gradually to other lines and sections of country, but not affecting the South until low cotton prices made their appearance. Speculation, whether in stocks or commodities, was closely restricted throughout a large part of the past year, but despite this, and as illustrative of the fact that capital was not entirely prostrated, new stock flotaj tions were of large volume, bonds sold : bettor than in 1910. short time obliga- ; tions were actively bought, and the close of the year finds most stocks higher in price than at the opening. ; Withal, money was easy, a reflection . partly, no doubt, of quiet in genera! ! trade and speculation. Some idle cap- ! ital, indeed, sought more profitable employment abroad, where, by the way, the course of international affairs did not run with entire smoothness. Domestic trade was large, but not of a record volume. Repression was in evidence in buying, stocks of goods were kept. down, and small and frequent rather than large orders were the rule. Business was therefore, perhaps, less profitably carried on. Basic conditions appeared sound, however, economies were practiced and credits were not apparently overextended Collections were made rather slowly. city payments being easier than those from the country; but, except in parts : . , PACKAGE IS MAILED TO "SWEETEST GIRL EVANSVILLE. Ind , Dec. 30. Postmaster Charles Sihler is puzzled. A package addressed to "The Sweetest (jjrl in the World" with no other name or no address was dropped into the postotfiee. The package is still in the hands of Postmaster Sihler. He says that there are so many sweet girls in Kvansville that he cannot make a decision as to the rightful owner. An Ov-.a Indent of War. In the rhiiippine portion of his bor.k "Th Memories of Two Wars" Ienernl Fun'.'n tells of a unique instance at the --ii'ge of Ma!r.lKn: Company L was tiring a few volleys, and one of the men. havine just discharged his piece, felt a second biow acainst his shoulder. i. ..ict . o., .. i ! i. .. ... -.-i us lii i us iur a. .i the jrrm.

the Past Yearly MARKET IB

of the northwest where past crops had been deficient, and from the south, where low-priced cotton late in the ear repressed both purchases and 1 aments, no real concern seemed visible. Wet or mild weather retarded ret id trade in December, but holiday trade was of good volume. Commodity prices justly came in for Mrtine as hampering some indus tries. Thus, high-priced cotton and failure to place goods made therefrom t:s.ised much short time from January well into September. Later, uncertainty as to the extent of the decline hampered dealings. Kf forts to sell iron and steel were not crowned with Miceess until low. perhaps cost, prices were reached in some instances. Then, however, consumers acted promptly, and although the railroads were out of the market early in the year, their i urch;ics of cars and equipment latr on was a welcome support to the market. Building was quieter than in the preceding two years, but still exj t ndite.res bulked large in the year's operations. Foreign trade made new record-;. Kxports especially were helped early by lower prices for foods, ami European markets were reopened f our ceivals and meats, while iron s.nd steel and cotton also swelled the balance of trade in this country's favcr. Later on low prices for cotton reduced the favorable balance slightlv Imports, despite reduced purchaser of manufacturers" materials, were only a; shade below- the U10 record. Labor came- through the year quite well, re-; ductior.s in working time rather than j in wages paid being the chief charact ristic. The number of strikes and , of strikers was less than half those of 1!M0. The number of those in busiress increased largely during the year, but the number failing was not greatly enlarged, and liabilities in tact fell off. Looking Forward. One of the most notable features in many lines of trade and industry as the year draws to a close is the air of conservative cheerfulness in evidence. While there is testimony to this having a solid basis in actual improvement already registered, it is plain that some of it has had its rise in the feeling that there have been many worse years, in the country's past history, and in the very apparent belief that some of the year's doubtful questions have been settled. It may be well, however, to call attention to a fevr cautionary signals that are visible. The coming year will in all probability witness an actively fought, if not, indeed, a very exciting presidential campaign, efforts by both the party in power and that in opposition to play politics and incidentally tinker with the tariff, and it no doubt will see continued efforts to put the anti-trust act to further use in a legal way. Then, too, present and probably future high prices for food will constitute a bar to fullest buying of the secondary necessaries of life. Finally, the effects upon consumption of shortened agricultural yields, or, as at the South, of much reduced financial crop returns, are yet to be reckoned with. On the other hand, it is probably true that un der existing conditions neither a presi (U,Iltia! eiection nor a prospect of tariff revision creates the feeling of unsettlemeiit that it formerly did. Furthermore, the basic facts cannot be obscured that stocks of goods are down to hard pan; that any change after two years of repression and of growing up to the country's productive capacity is likely to be in the diwetion of expension; that money is and promises to be reasonably easy, thus inviting new investment, and that new crop prospects in the spring are a source of possible stimulation. It has already been found in several industries that given right prices an excellent trade is possible of development. There are problems still to be met and solved, but the cheerfulness after trial shown by the people at large augurs well for safe methods of trade expansion, for saner views of possible political progress and of legal regulation of business, and for real national conservation ana upDuiiuing , in the year to come. . - MEN AND RELIGION MPPTIvr TA1UAPDIUV The men's meeting at the Y.
