Husband and wife sat up late talking over the family finances. They 61scassed the expenditures that would be necessary the forthcoming week. Every cent of the husband's salary for the past week bad been spent, and ome bills were unpaid. Said the wife: "Where does the money go?" "Search me," naively replied the man. They did not know. Many husbands and wives do not know. Whole families do not. Which breeds trouble. It was the business of this husband and wife to know where every cent of the husband's salary had gone. The business of a family is as much a business as any other. The fault? There was no record. They could figure how much had been paid to the grocer and the butcher and for this and that, but when the total was made by memory a good sized margin was left unaccounted for. Of course they did not know. Every family should have its bookkeeper, and every expenditure should be accounted for. The account should be accurate and in detail. Because The high cost of living often may be traced to carelessness in spending money. So long as there are funds in hand or the credit is good, it is easy to buy whatever the mood may sug gest. "it doesn't cost much" only 5 or 10 or 25 cents. But The aggregate spells extravagance. If an accurate accounting is made and each item, however small, is set down it will be found that not only . will there be less freedom in expenditure; but, what is better, the family will know where it is at financially. The record is in black and white. So that the family firm can make an analysis of lta finances just as a merchant does when he gets his statement from the bookkeeper. Furthermore The" welfare of the family demands that the family should know where the money goes, because j Failnre and debt and disgrace and , discord and divorce are often caused ; by lack of business sense in family affairs. Know where the money goes. Dangerous. "A person should think twice before speaking."

Harmonious Democracy. The Palladium is patiently waiting to extend congratulations to our next postmaster, whoever he may be. Yesterday we were just on the ragged edge of grasping the right hand of Charles B. Beck and working it like a pump handle, following the announcement that he had been selected to adorn the executive office of the local federal building. Then, like a flash from a clear sky, came the request from Congressman Gray that the announcement of the appointment be placed on ice for awhile, as he had been petitioned to grant another hearing in the Richmond post office contest. However, Mr. Gray's request.like that historical document in the stirring play, "The Fatal Message," arrived too late, for the Palladium was at press with the premature tidings from Connersville. While we must bide our time in extending congratulations to our next postmaster the Palladium can now consistently offer Mr. Gray its sympathies over the trouble patronage, that old disturber of political peace, has brought down on his unwilling shoulders, and we can bluntly assure him that when he def nitely announces his appointment he will have to vigorously enfotce the clause in his application blanks which provides that unsuccessful candidates for the job shall accept their disappointment gracefully and not go out on the warpath. Local Democracy is about as harmonious as a pack of timber wolves, and the "faithful" have smelled the rich odor of the pork barrel so we predict blood on the moon and some excellent exhibitions of knife play. In the meantime we wish we were a little mouse and could gnaw our way into that conference room todary where the dispensor of patronage meets with the local Jeffersonian lords to decide whether Mr. Beck is to have his plum taken away and a lemon substituted. But perhaps we will be able to hear the "discussion" out on the sidewalk just as well as though we were in the room. .

The Tragedy ot Truth.

There is living in New York a woman who calls herself Mary Goode. She admits that the name is assumed. It is her nomen atque omen; her name that carries with it a meanir.g; her "name of war." According to her own story, she is a high school graduate. She has, also, studied at one or more colleges. She has a clear mind; she has heaven help her no illusions. She "knows It all." This woman who calls herself Mary Goode has lived in New York for many years. She has not made what we call an "honest" living. But she says that she had to live, and the way she follows was the only way she found when finding it was urgent. She is not, it eeems, a beautiful woman. She has no apparent fascination. She has neither grace of figure nor charm of manner. She wears nose glasses, pince nez. Her appearance of normal health witnesses that she neither drinks nor uses drugs. There is nothing about her that is flighty or silly. She is just a female with a plain face and a mind for facts and a soul that has been dried up in realizing the darker facts of human depravity. And this woman has told the aldermanic committee which is investigating the alliance between the police and vice in New York a story of her experiences with the police and the bullies of the police and the "vice trust" that shows just how far a certain kind of man will go when he is after money. The story this woman told was just as simple as the story of Robinson Crusoe; it was as direct in its power of terrific conviction as some of the psalms. It was an old tale, in a way, because tales like it are told every day by half-sobered, tousled, blearing women in the police courts of New York. But it was a new tale as Mary Goode told it, because Mary Goode is an intelligent, educated woman, who keeps sober and has the courage of sane despair. This woman, in her evidence, gave names, dates, times and places. She named the policemen and the bullies of the policemen and the "vice trust" protected by the policemen who prey on her and her like. She proved that immorality in New York is commercialized; she proved that the police and the men who assist the police in handling this commerce are bereft of all feelings of honor or fair play; and she said that the only way to stop that heartless and abysmal graft was the creation of a special committee that should frankly recognize this colossal fact in life and give it the protection of that recognition. It wa3 an appalling story that she told. She told it as the experience of a woman to whom tragedy has become commonplace. It was a tale that should have made hypocrisy shiver for the suffering it has inflicted on a class of women to whom suffering is a normal part of life. And if it does not awaken New York to a sense of its responsibilities New York will slumber until the wrath of retribution smites it heavily. Philadelphia Times.

A STITCH IN TIME

Richmond People Should Not Neglest Their Kidneys, No kidney ailment is unimportant. Don't overlook the slightest backache or urinary irregularity. Nature may be warning you of approaching dropsy, gravel or Bright's disease. KidDey disease is seldom fatal if treated in timv, but neglect may pave the way. Don't neglect a lame or aching back another day. Don't ignore dizzy spells, irregular or discolored urine, headaches, weariness or depression. If you feel you need kidney help begin using the ! reliable, time-tried remedy, Doan's Kidney Pilla. For 60 years, Doan's have been found effective. Endorsed by Richmond people. Mrs. J. C. Genn, 522 N. 16th St., Richmond, Ind., says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are alright. Whenever any of us have any symptoms of kidney trouble such as backache and disordered kidneys, Doan's Kidney Pills give relief." For sale by all dtalcs. Price 50 cents.

I Fanny Kemble when In the United ' States years ago was persecuted by the attentions of a wealthy lunatic. ! When finally rejected by her he flung ' a package upon the table, exclaiming. I "Well, at least take thisT' and disap- i peared. The parcel proved to contain j a very beautiful Jewel. The actress I was not long permitted to retain itShe saw no more of her persecutor, but did not remain under any sense of obligation to him. The gem was stolen from her before she quit the United States. She forget all about it in the course of the years that followed. A very long time afterward she was in Italy. A peddler displayed the conI tents of his pack before her at Sor rento. There lay the long lost jewel. Through whose hands it had passed there was nothing to show. Accidents at Home. A man who, despite the fact that he has several grandchildren, is still fond of his club and the pleasures which lie beyond the domestic circle said in defense of his weakness that he went out to prolong his life "and to avoid dangers." "According to a table recently published by an accident insurance company," he said, "more than I one-quarter of the accidents 'happen at home,' " and in proof of the statement he showed this statistical record of accidents: At home, 25.9 per cent; pedestrians, 1S.2; automobiles, 11.1; recreation, 11.0; horses and vehicles, 9.9; on street cars 7.2; on railway trains. 4.3; bicycles, 1.2; steamship travel, 1.0; miscellaneous, 10.2. New York Tribune. Cost of Revolutionary War. Justin Winsor in his "The Westward Movement" quotes Thomas Jefferson as his authority for the statement that the money cost of establishing American independence was, in round numbers. $140,000,000. According to the same authority, the war of the Revolution cost England Just about five times the above figure that is to say. about $700,000,000. Thus it will be seen that there are several present day -Americans any one of whom is worth much more than it cost to establish the independence of this nation. New York American.

The kittle Waif on Christmas Eve Wonders if Santa Ctaus Remembers Her

"Twas Christmas Eve. the good night of the year, the ni;ht to which : the Little Waif had looked forward for many a week. How t-aserly she had counted the days, as they rolledone by one off the calendar ami brought Old Saint Nick just a little bit nearer to her! How long the v.oks had seemed, and how patiently she had waited. And was it really trut that tonight, this very night, was Christmas Eve? As she stood before the window of the big store gazing willfully at the many-colored toys, the Little Waif could hardly refrain from naming them over; there was the hi; wax doll with golden hair, the little blueeyed one with a dainty blue sash, and still another with eyes of brown and yet another and another. My, how she wanted to hold one of them in her arms, just for one minute! There were so many pretty things in the windowthat she had never had that she couldn't help looking longingly at them. Picture books galore, sets of dishes, parlor sets, blocks and books, beautiful golden balls and hearts hung from the chandeliers the sieht of nil of which filled the Little Waif with a feeling of lonsomeness, with a fuller realization of her own poverty. She watched mothers bring little packages out of the store. Often, she wondered what was in those nice, paper wrappings; sometimes, she wondered whether or not they were intended for other children. For several hours The Little Waif watched eople jostle past her in their mad rush for the counters at the last moment the j proverbial '"eleventh hour." J Then, she thought of her own fhristmas. To the Little Waif, Christmas was a mere name, but she knew that it meant something to some people. She had no mother to tell her Christmas tales by the fireside before going to bed. And her father? poor, unfortunate girl, she had been an orphan ever since she could remember. But had not Ellen told her that Santa Claus would come down the chimney and leave a present in every good littie girl's stocking? Then she began to cry, for she remembered that Santa ;had forgotten her last year and she jhad been a good girl, too! Last Christmas she had wanted a new dress, oh, so much, and she had told Santa in : her letter, that she wanted a new doll, with eyes that open and close. But she had been disappointed, bitterly disappointed, when she woke up on Christimas morning to find her stocking empty! Nice Assortment of Pendant Necklaces from $1.50 to $40.

Thus, it was not unnatural that the! Little Waif simply cried. She could not help it.
