SOMETHING WRONG. As congress closes, the spokesman for the republican majority solemnly rises in his seat and sends word to the country that the present administration saved the tax payers an even billion dollars last year.r. That sum, has he asserts, has come from the many economies and through the wise legislation of congress. Unfortunately the echo of the presidential veto had hardly stilled, a veto which forbid any tender of justice to the service man and which was based upon the ground that the public treasury is empty, that there is a deficit of six hundred and fifty millions of dollars, that all business would be bankrupted and the country driven upon tha rocks if any payments are made at this time. The ordinary' citizen has Fcr-n little or no reduction in his taxes. It is true thit fome taxes were lowered but these were upon the higher levels of excess profit. Ford, for instince, was Faved somethin?: like thirty-five millions by the operation of the nw schedules. : . : . i. .:.( a s'.Iarht lifting: of burdens of those who urn ?2.000 a ye.ir, but in between these two. the burden still remains and the old tributes are still levied. - The nun or vornan who goes to the picture f'iows still rays a tax. They pay on every deed or note that is drawn. They pay on each little lnexper.rive luxury that have come to mean necessities under tho American standard of living. Until thnt billion dollars Is interpreted to the srrat mass of men and women in termfl of real money ar.d real savintrs on expenses, there will be a doubt qp to its correctness. A country that paved a billion a year ought to be able to p y something on it3 deM to men who were treated with discrimination during the war. It ought to be able to run alonjr without borrowing vast sums as temporary loans, totaling hundreds of millions of dollars. The evidence will not bo complete or satisfactory until every man, woman and child can And some part of that billion in their own pockets. o A BABY'S DREAMS. Turn from the sordid sensations, the nimors of -ars. th- latest scandals to something mo.-t important. A bab celebrate its advent Into the world by calling "mother." distinctly and plainly three times before it had been a resident ten minute. Such at least is the ftory that comes over tho wires. Doctors will smile and tell you that it is imposnble. They will shake their heads and say that no chili ever utter? a word until it learns from its e'dens and that all of its knowledge and impre.ssiona nii't be obtained by experience. P.ut n doctor will deny that a baby, a month old. smiles in its dreams and that its slumbers are olten a mask for something pleasant. Reformer.? who lament some of the present day customs and habits of life, who protest against f-enfatlonillsm in the news, who thunder against t-.ilaclous picture- and who lift their eyes in horror at the n''.: style, are commended to study the smi upon the face of a sepir.g babe. When they ! am the secret of that smib. they will have a f-tartir.g point from which to reform the world. The phychologist who has studied dreams tells ..u that they ccmo from that subconscious mind .hich is the storo hou;e or the reservoir for the rnr'io;:? mind. They will explain that in sleep the active or con.sc'.cu mind is subordinated to that other mind -vb'.h rMA.r-s th'' ir.ir .-sions and the memories muvh lor.por than does the alert and thinking brain. Thy will tell you that It Is impossible for dreams to picture anything outside of the dreamers human -xperier. :e. The picture may be distorted, but it a! way:- comes In terms of experience. Apply th it sage wis lorn to the sleeping bah. At a month It ha had but three sensations, that of appetite sniffled, cf warmth or cold, and of the southing formation of touch of flannel. Io you boheve that the rrllfs that come to its l.ttle i?.c a? it kicks and gurls in its sleep is a K.'TV.Gry of its last meal? Or do ycu believe that pretty leerend of the housewives that It smile because the ar.gelfl are playing vi 1th its toes? Something really greater thin that Is happening, ?..r ur.douMe I'y the t abe b; ir.p? to tbe world mem-rii-s thit have been fathered throurh centuries of cr.ccrtors. memories that are transmitted through the I.::'..' e ll', memories that have tendencies for good and for evil and that can come to cheer or frirht.n the new born. Yh'T: i -. t mystery of life is solved, human beings vil! b m re careful cf their own conduct and of r'.-.e i:.,-r-.or:es that they are sending down through hi ,:rs.

The finest triT-ute that can be paid to the uful-rse.-e of ary irtltution Is & -willlngnMs cn the part rt the i'c; to part riih money in crder that It r.ay continue. That tribute tt-.s rail to the T. M. C. A. during th v. ee; when tho rr.ory needed for its rvork during the nr.t year was raiM In a few days. Cu:;;paidd to the Ltneilta which it brings to the
community, the $25.000 r.edel for its expense is triflingly small. Five yean ago. however, this amount would have been obtained only by the hardest anj mot pTfistest of appeal, through arumPt and persuasion, through numerous visit to men and women of in far. s Today, the announcement of lt reeefs!tl is a sufficient appeal to public purse and Interest to obtain an irr. mediate response and the work of the business men who er.?agd In Its collection vraii Wrg-ely a perfunctory matter of finding the rigrht people In their office. This institution ha made a real place for Itself In the community life of this city. Its training of bcy3 In gymnasiums. Its night schools, its attention to crippled children have won for it a place in the f'fTectlons and In the thought of the city that is more than enviable. The money that It needed waa not given grudgingly but with a hope that it fine work may be continued and its influence be even deeper and broader upon the character of the youth of this city. o YOUR POWERS. Lulu M. Carglll. clerk In the New York postoff.ee. takes from Nina E. Holme of Detroit the title of "champion letter sorter of the world." Miss Holmes attracted attention by sorting 20,610 letters in eight hours, or nearly 43 a minute. Miss Cargill sorta 30,215 letters in eight hours, which U better than one a second. And she sorted 'he first 23.500 letters without paueing. Then che stopped for a cup of tea. Sorting a letter means picking It up, reading the address, recalling- the postal route to reach the address, then tossing the letter into the proper bag. Misa Cargill is 2 6 yesrs old. She has been a postal clerk only three years. Miss Cargill. you reflect, muft have wonderful coordination of body and mind. A brain that works with lightning swiftness has automatically perfect teamwork with a body that perfectly obeys her rapid brain. The body 13 a collection of machines, each trying to work co-operatively for the good of all. It Is a mo-e perfect system of government than man has been able to devise. Mis Cargill. judging from her work, has what scientists would call "an extraordinary well-bal-r-.nced system of endocrine glands." In the so-called "efficient" person, the body glands peei up when needed and slow down when the energy of the body is required by the other glands. In a boy who is growing too rapidly, as a result of abnormal activity by the pituitary gland in the b-ain, the other gland. slow down and surrender part of their share of the body's energy. With moft of his energy devoted to growing, the lad is ant to te otherwise languid. Or, for example, you suddenly are in danger, which requires a quick use of reserve energy. The word is telegraphed through the blood. The message is sent out by the adrenal glands, which stand guard as a mobilizcr of reserve energy. Other glands slow down, a If saying, "If the adrenal fail in this emergency, we all perish." The heart responds to the adrenals and rushes blood to the arms or other parts of the body that have to meet the danger. This rush of blood is why "tnc face goes white" in a time of peril. The crisis met and conquered, the blood rushes back to normal distribution through the body. Tho other glands "come to lifo." The sudden change makes the person, calm in danger, half-collapse "after it's all over." o OUT OF THE SPACES. Astronomer?, who went to Australia to photograph an eclipse of the sun sa.y that they saw a corona 40.000 miles wide from which four long streamers of light shot forth, one of them extending two and a half million miles from the center of the sun. A- philosopher might reach the conclusion that man is but the tiniest of atom.s in the great univers, so insignificant as not to matter much, when millions of miles of space suggest a defying vastnes3 of .?pace and time. Only a scientist has any idea of what that distance might mean. Imagination can hardly follow the light, to ay nothing of trying to translate that distance into terms of ordinary human experience. Taking it for granted that these astronomers know what they are talking about, there is ample room for thought as to what lies out in tho-'e vast spaces, in those millions of miles that stretch away Into Infinity of endlessness. And after you have tried your best to people it with your dreams and to chart it according to your own iden. it might be well to remember that the Insignificant human atom, following that lijht with his eye. must have some great importance In the scheme of things or he would not even care to measure that illuminating shaft. Less than two thousand years ago human beings, confronted by a sclar eclipse with Its sudden darkening cf the source of heat and of life, fell upon their knees to pray. The savage today, when thia phenomenon occurs, offer? sacrifices to his particular idola ar.d attributes it to the working of evil spirits or angered demons. In a very brief space of time, man has learned to study the tkies, the planets and the suns, to know that they run upon their courses according to definite and regular law? and that order is the rule of the universe. And man has only Just begun. The only thing greater than that shaft of light Is the Intelligence of man which measures it. Limitless as the great spaces seem, there Is one goal more limitless, and that is the power of thought and the possibilities oi the human mind. Fome thlnjr that are most unusual today will be well understood tomorrow, just as the eclipse to a thinking man became a natural order of affairs and not the miracle of a demon. Study those 5paces. Study, too. the spaces of jour own mind and try to send ew.e piercing shaft cf licht into the dark mysteries of thtngs that now make for tragedy and before which men shrink and shudder. o "We have too many single men." jays a minister. An old maid tells us there are even more than that.

What Is Love? Specialist in Love Philosophy Tells
What's Your View? What do you think about love? And marriage? And divorce? Look at this novel questionnaire prepared by a man who says he has made a scientific study of the subject. The "love philosopher" of Bridgeport recommends: Make marriage harder, divorce easier. Abolish wedding rings. Keep wives out of business. Men not marry until 30, women until 25. What do you think? How would you answer the love questionnaire?

Gland Transplanting For Youths and Aged Cause Chimpanzee Death
By HERBERT M. DAVIDSON, (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent.) PARIS, Sept. 20.--Man's insatiable desire to prolonged youth has sounded the death-knell for the race of chimpanzees. Every chimpanzee and other large ape in the jungles of Africa is doom.ed to extinction within a comparatively short period unless the transference of monkey glands to weakened and weak-minded children and to old men who have lost their vigor proves to be based on false theory, or unless some way of keeping chimpanzees healthy and happy in captivity is discovered by zoo-keepers. Neither of these last events seems likely, alas, for the chimpansee! And, alas for Dr. Serge Veronoff, who has announced from his Parisian laboratory that he will soon make positive and scientific assertion, following three years of satisfactory clinical experimentation, that any chimpanze gland may be transferred with good result to the human body.
Already Dr. Veronoff has succeeded in increasing the vitality of the old with the use of interstitial glands from the chimpanzee and of the young with the same ape's thyroid glands. "It requires three years for the full effects of the transference to be felt," he told newspapermen. "And as I began work three years ago I shall soon be able to announce definite results." The only trouble, according to Dr. Veronoff, is in getting enough chimpanzees. He has nine at present and needs. more. Each costs at least $500 to bring from Africa As yet the glands of no other ape have been discovered to be adaptable for the purpose. The operations will become more common -- the chimpanzees more rare. Dr. Veronoff, whose wife was Miss Fanny Bostwick, American heiress, supports his own laboratory and pays all costs of his experimental operations, including importing and maintaining the chimpanzees.
