mond suffering annually from the dust during the summer months appears to be a street oiling equipment for . the street department. An oil sprinkling wagon would cost little and every street not permanently improved could be oiled at a minimum expense. It is to be hoped the city council will give this matter its serious consideration.

What About the Dust The recent action of the board of public works

in refusing to again accept petitions for the oil

ing of streets and having the improvement done

under public contract is undoubtedly justifiable.

for past experiences have shown such a policy

always leaves the city to "hold the sack." But some solution of the dust problem, a ser

ious one in Richmond because of our many miles of macadam and gravel streets, must be found. Oiling streets under private contract, as the

board has suggested, will not be satisfactory. A few property owners, by refusing to meet their share of such an expense, will prevent many

streets from being oiled under such an arrange ment. The most practical method to prevent Rich

Inconsistency If a railroad engineer is injured in the performance of his duty and through no negligence on his part he not only, receives his salary while

incapacitated, but the company is appreciative enough to assume the added expenses its employe

incurs. This also holds true of other corpora tions. ' :. . ,'.

But the public, which often takes delight in lambasting corporations, indignantly referring to them as soulless, heartless and predatory, permits its "holier-than-thou" attitude to be shown up

quite frequently. . "V v

If our favorite target for abuse, the street railway company, for instance, should refuse to pay the medical, surgical and hospital expenses

of one of its motormen injured when an automobile plunged into his car, popular indignation

would rise to fever heat.

But .with inconsistent indifference the same public views a condition which compels one of its

own employes, a police officer, to pay all the ex

penses he has been put to by being shot while

trying to arrest a desperate murderer.

Vvhy!" gasped Gertrude In amazement at the term Catherine had used. "No. Why?" ! "He will, and when he does, don't" . "Why, what do yon mean?" I Catherine stared at her ImpotenUy, then shrugged her shoulders. ': "Those things never sound right when they're told. YouH find out in time and I hope without regrets." "I don't understand," insisted Gertrude, staring at this cocksure young woman, utterly at a loss. Catherine Wiggins walked up to Gertrude and looking her In the eye, asked: "Has that old Romeo tried to make love to you yet?" "You mean Mr. Scott?" asked Gertrude, shocked. "Yes," said Catherine calmly, "Mr. Scott." "No. No. He has been very kind to me and very patient " "Such patience is unusual. Kind to you? Put his hand on your shoulder in a fatherly way? Tell you you were a brave little girl In a fatherly way? And how much salary is he paying?" "Ten dollars." Catherine pointed at the waste basket where she had flung Gertrude's impossible transcription of Scott's letter. "For that?" she asked. Gertrude looked confused. Catherine took her arm, and spoke seriously. "Look out, girlie look out," she said seriously. "I didn't talk to Scott two minutes when 'I bad bis number. I know bis kind. That sort of man wouldn't put up with an incompetent stenographer for a minute. If that poor old bookkeeper ever made a mistake, he'd be thrown ' out of the window. When Scott hires a new secretary, and a young one and a pretty one, like you. and pays more than the market price and puts you in his private office where be doesn't want outsiders to peep in he doesn't want a etpnogracher!"

See i man today with his akin all broken out ; tee him again in a week or two after using S. 8. fl. and he is a wonder to behold, all cleared up, skin healthy, eyes bright, ft big imlle replaces the droop. What is S. S. 8. that con accomplish such wonderful results? First cf all it is a natural medicine. Like milk, egss and other foods that pan not be imitated, S. S. S. owe It to Nature for Its power to overcome disease lust as food prevents emaciation. S. 8. S. is not a combination of prescription drugs. It is a preparation direct from medicinal plants that retains all the virile potency of what we need, what we must have in the blood to counteract those destructive tendencies that assail us throughout life. If it were not for our natural secretions to ustain us, aided by such known helps as B. 8. 8. there would be small chance of any of us surviving childhood. Get a bottle of 8. 8.

-what doeaue 'want?" asked Gertrude, thoroughly mystified. "A playmate." For a minute the younger girl did not get the meaning of the term. Then she gasped and drew away from Catherine. "I don't believe you!" she said. Catherine gazed at her in amazement. "Are you blind?" she asked In desperation. "You're only a child; but even a girl of seventeen ought to know something. They dont teach it to you in business college, but it should be part of the female instinct here, give me your pencil." Gertrude handed over her pencil. Catherine took it and wrote something in Gertrude's notebook, then handed the book to the girl. "You can't read your own stenography," she said. "See if you can read mine. Can you read that?" " 'Stop.' " "Yes," said Catherine. "'Stop!' That's the one word they don't teaeh you. Keep it on the tip of your tongue. YouH need it. Say, let me give you a little tin. You're in a new world, now.

You'll meet a lot of men of the kind you have never met before. Men who do things and are things. Men who don't have to wait till Saturday night for their incomes and their holidays. They'll hypnotize you with their forcefulness. Then they'll tell you that you're beautiful, and your little bead will spin around at the consciousness that little you have been noticed by such giants. They'll rave about your lips and your eyes and your hair till you'll wonder why you never found out before that yon were lovely. They'll get you drunk not necessarily with wine but with hopes and promises and dreams and new sensations. They'll have so much to offer and you'll have so little to return. And nobody, not even a girl, likes to be a bad sport." Gertrude stared at her, a spark of

terror flaring into her eyes. "Don't talk like that; you scare me," she whispered. "I only wish I could. The tragedy Is that you usually can't, until it's too late." Gertrude looked at Catherine

sharply. Perhaps she was envious of the position and wanted it for herself! "I don't think you judge Mr. Scott right. He is a gentleman. He wouldn't think of such things; besides, he has a wife and a family and he's so rich and important he wouldn't dare " Catherine laughed shortly. "Dare?" she demanded. "Why. hell dare anything! His kind will lie and act and smile and tell you that their wives don't understand them. They wrote the system and can play It safe.

While they're looking into your eyes, they're framing an alibi in their heads. They fight and swindle one another, these business men, and a child like you is well, just a child. It's the salt in their busy lives; it's the gambling fascination; it's the lure of the hunt They see you they want you they take you they drop you." "I won't believe it," said Gertrude stubbornly. "Thousands of girls work, and nothing nothing ever happens to them." "Yes, many thousands," agreed Catherine, "but they are the girls who have sense and who don't run across men like 8cott." ' Gertrude refused to be argued with, however, persisting that she could not give up a fine position that paid her so much more than she had expected to get. and told Catherine how kind and patient Mr. Scott was, and how she was sure that he was a fine man. Catherine tried .to argue with.ber. tojd hef

not to let hlm'talkfnafler abo any

thing but business. Gertrude, already

overwhelmed with his power and hit

diplomacy, kept repeating almost me

chanically the things that he had prom

ised to do for .her.

Finally, Miss Wiggins gave np im

despair.

"Oh, what's the use!" she cried to

the world In general, and went out,

slamming the door emphatically after

her. "You can't do anything with that

wide-eyed kind!" she said to herself on the other side of the door. It Is hard, for those who have learned to

see a small soul through a big body, to realize that to the unsophisticated, the only thing that appears Is the big

body.

As Catherine went out. Jack Scott

came in through the private office

door. "Where's Mr. Scott?" he asked. - "He's gone into the outer office,1 said Gertrude.

"Oh! Will you please tell him I am

taking the touring car. I've phoned for the limousine to call for him at five. I'm going out of town on business for a few hours." "I don't quite understand," said Gertrude faintly,, wrinkling her brow. "I'm taking the touring car" Jack smiled suddenly, realizing the cause of her perplexity. "That's the open one. The limousine that's the one that looks like a big taxlcab will be here for him at five." "I'll try to remember that," said Gertrude doubtfully. "1 have never noticed much difference in automobiles. One doesn't, just to see them fly by." "I don't suppose you do ride in them very often, do you?" asked Jack reflectively, still smiling but suddenly realizing that there is "another hair that knows very little about automobiles. "I never rode In one in my life," answered Gertrude simply.

"Well!" It had never occurred to Jack that there was anyone who had never ridden in an automobile. "I'll have to take you out some pleasant Sunday. I'll call around and take you and your mother through the park if you will let me." There was a plea in the last phrase. "Oh. no." Gertrude thought of Miss Wiggins' advice at once. "I think you had better not." "I am sure your mother would enjoy it," said Jack, surprised.

"She never goes out," said Gertrude, j

except to the orphan asylum to see my little brothers." "Are your little brothers In an orphan asylum?" asked Jack. "Yes. Mother and I have been trying to save enough so that we could bring them home, but mother doesn't earn much, and this is my first job " "Aren't they treated well there?" demanded Jack. "Yes; but an orphan asylum isn't home." All of a sudden it seemed to Jack that the whole world began to revolve around the Idea of getting Gertrude's two little brothers out of the asylum. He was trying to suggest a way to do it without being untactful enough to offer her the money for it outright, when suddenly Jerrold R. appeared from the outer office and stared. "Thought you had gone," he said meaningly to Jack. "I'm on my way now," said Jack. "Oh, I see." "I'm taking the six," continued Jack, going to the door, but unable to take his eyes from Gertrude. "The Hmousine'll get you here at five. Is that all right?" His stepfather murmured an acquiescence and Jack tore himself away, en route to an engagement which had suddenly lost its Interest for him. Scott Bat down and began to go through the papers on his desk again. "You may go to lunch, Miss Meyer," he said formally. "Be back about onethirty, please." "I I wasn't going to lunch today," stammered Gertrude confusedly. Jerrold R. looked up from his desk. His voice boomed musical, fatherly concern. , f "Not going to lunch? Why, yon can't work all day without eating!" Gertrude's confusion grew. She blushed pitifully, her eyes on the floor. "I I didnt expect to stay downthat is " "You mean yon didn't bring any money with you?" he interrupted. "No no, sir: Only my carfare down and back." . (To be continued.)

Editor Palladium:

In regard to the controversy be

tween Mr. L. A. Knonf and 'myself.

concerning the removal of the street lamp at the corner of. South Fifth and

D streets, I wish, to state your paper

did not near, publish all .the questions I 'asked this saloonkeeper about his

objections and. cause for the removal.

I wanted to know by what, ways and

means thlB light had - been- kept off this corner all these years: if that was

not the proper place for a light, it be

ing tne only corner south of Main street having a.buslness place on three corners, and no light; why some of the former ccuncilmen had not brought up this question before council, when they had , been repeatedly .approached ; on this aubject,' but the question hart always' been, dropped or squashed? Why not accord all the saloonkeepers the same privilege T Let them remove the lights in front of their business places and get some of that automobile trade, as Mr. Knopf terms it, , and which he thinks can, only be catered to in the darkness? - - -. In regard to that petition circulated and headed by Mr. Knopf . ..About half of the number of signers are resident property owners. It's often an easy tack for one' In business to get plenty of signers to a petition. Sometimes it's his business, or the merchandise or goods he handles have a pulling power. Now I will let this matter drop until I can learn how council or the city acts upon the question.. Then if this light is removed to please one individual, I shall publish all facts, plainly and truthfully, as I have known and seen them the past ten years or more. Very respectfully. GEORGE W. SCHWEGMAN.

tribute to the departed brothers of

Wayne Aerie, No. 666. It speaks far more eloquently than I can hope to do of the esteem in which these departed brothers are held and this outpouring of the citizenship of your city attests the esteem in which the Fraternal Order of Eagles is held in this community. "In Eagledom 'The virtues of our brothers we will ever treasure, their faults we have forgotten.' This custom of paying tribute to those who have gone forever from our midst is as old as civilization and in every Eagles' Aerie, reaching into the hundreds of thousands of members of the order, it is the goodly custom once a year to hold these memorial services as we are doing today and there in solemn ritual and appropriate exercises we commemorate the loving memories of our departed brothers who have crossed the bar. Origin of . Order. "February 6, 1898, just a little more than seventeen years ago, there gathered together In fraternal spirit on the shores of Puget Sound at the .Tidewater Flats of Seattle, a few actors of the drama, and there was founded the first aerie of the Fraternal Order of Eagles. At a later meeting this temporary organization was made permanent and in times of sickness and distress, this society, bound together in ties of common sympathy and brotherhood became a permanent organization with the principles of Liberty, Truth,

Justice and Equality as the principle? and foundation upon which they built the temple of a great fraternal organization. Within a comparatively short time the infant organization there christened in Seattle has become the greatest faternal society of the century, aye of all history. It has for its model our own, our native land the United States of America, the mightiest reoublic in all history, since the

It is idle to profess Liberty, Truth, Justice and Equality if the deeds that come forth as the flower of our faith are lacking. We should not be faithful to that charity which is the strong arm of love if we did not out of our abundance give to those in want and sorrow. - "Let there be no stain upon the white marble of our manhood and each

him be measured by the standard of

Do men gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles? Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit shall be cut down and shall be cast into the fire wherefore by their fruits ye shall know

them.' Let our lives stand for untar

right, for integrity that is truly representative of American manhood, the

highest order of American nobility

Let charity abound in our hearts and tolerance of thought and speech be

ever with us. In the heyday of our power let us remember the lessons of the founding of the republic. Let us remember Valley Forge and the heroes of that day who gave the highest

deed and let those in our land who feel that the constitution of our fathers is no longer efficient, that we have outgrown its limitations, remember that liberty and and all its kindred and beneficient children have come to us under this great bill of rights and it Is my prayer that we will hold to that priceless heritage and in so doing insure to posterity to the last generation the sweet fruits of liberty and justice that we, in our age and generation, have enjoyed under its fostering care. "The story of Christian manhood 'as It applies to the members of this order is the story of Its principles. In this order the great love and respect

of womanhood is the cornerstone of

bagledom. We have declared ourselves her special champion. We have

taken the view that her pathway will ever be lighted by the stars of honor and uprightness. We believe that the woman who adorns every home, brightens every pathway, the woman who shares every burden and rejoices in every promotion in life, the woman which we have sworn to honor and protect. Is the great cardinal principle which lifts this order un on the eter

the name of womanhood and home

Out of the very cardinal principles of Christianity the founders built this great fraternal organization embracing thp virtues of older orders and rekindled the fire of patriotism, a love of country and of flag, and renewed faith In the existence of a Supreme Being, an Omnipotent Creator, thus joining thr religion of love and the gospel of humanity. Tribute to Dead. "I would pay this tribute to our departed brothers. Of them it may be said they were ever faithful to their principles, ever ready with charity, that charity which scripture tells us of, 'If I speak with the tongues of men and angels and have not charity I am become as sounding brass or tinkling cymbal' that charity which comprehends the woes and miseries of the poor, that charity which means tolerance of spirit, purity of heart, bigness of soul and these are the principles they typified in their daily life while they walked among men. Here they wove about them the tender fabric of Liberty, Truth. Justice and Equality, clinging closely to these Christian principles of Christian manhood they breathed forth the blessings of human sympathy with the afflicted; with Truth they brought themselves in closer bonds of fraternal affection with their brothers. With Justice their lives shed forth its resplendent rays of Equality, knowing neither class or clan they made the homes of each and all a temple for honest men, standing united in the bonds of Eagledom around the fireside of its enduring principles, there with fearless liberties and a belief in the righteous laws of mankind they stood unimpeachable in their power for good. Always a foe to hypocriscy; they sought to perpetuate Liberty, Truth, Justice and Equality, the principles that makes men free, that makes men honest with each other, that keep honor bright, that does not fetter the temporal or spiritual liberty of men but which bids bim to hold fast to the religion taught him at his mother's knee.
