Why He Remained.
When the officer of the day entered
the guardroom he found it empty,
save for a private, who, airily attired
In his shirtsleeves, lounged on a
chair, puffing a short clay pipe
"Where's the sergeant of the
guard." demanded the officer angrily.
"Gone across to the mess to have a
drink, sir." replied the private salut-
ing smartly.
"And the sentries*''
"In the canteen, str."
"Then, confound it. what are you
doing here?"
"Me, sir" was the calm reply. "1 m

He who is able to hold his tongue

Burning of the canoes at Camp Tek
akwitha is a good example. The use
of these extremely frail, unstable and
therefore dangerous chaft shoutd be
everywhere restricted to expert swim
mere. Any others who go out in them
risk their lives, since the least in-
cautious movement is likely to cause
an upset even when the water is quiet
While canoes may still be used by
thosg *ho are fitted and ready at any
moment to swim ashore, it would be
better if they were put out of use al-
together. There is always the dan
per as long as they are kept at hand,
that bovs who cannot swim may seiie
s an opportunity to venture out in them
They serve no purpose that is worth
while. An expert may derive some
pleasure from paddling a canoe about,
but to persons who want to en;oy a
ride upon the water they offer neither
security nor comfort—Albany Journal

Let bankers explain the technical
features of the new currency system.
Suttiee it here to say that it provides
a currency which expands as it is ueed-
ed. and contracts *hen it is not nett-
ed. a currency *hich comes into exist-
ence in response to the call of every
man *ho can sho* a going business
and a concrete basis for extending
credit to him. however obscure or
prominent he may be. however big or
little his business transactions.
More than that, the po*er to direct
this system of credits is put into it#
hands of a public board of disinterest-
ed officers of the government itself
who can make no money out of an>- ,
thing they do in connection with it
No group of bankers anywhere can get
control; no part of the country can
concentrate the advantages and con-
veniences of the system upon itself for
its own selfish advantage The board
can oblige the banks of one region to
go to the assistance of the ban^s of
another. The whole resources of the
country are mobilized, to be employed
where they are most needed 1 think
we are justified in speaking of this as
a democracy credit Credit is at the
disposal of every man who can show
energy and assets. Each region of
the country is set to stud> its own
needs and opportunities and the whole
country stands by to assist It is seif-
government as well as democracy.—
President Wilson.

Corn on the Cob

Post T oasties
—the toasted sweet
of the corn fields!
In the growth of corn there is a period when the
kernels are plumped out with a vegetable milk, most
nutritious. As it slowly ripens this hardens
finally becomes almost flinty.
Only this part of the corn is used in making Post
Toasties,' the husk, germ and all waste being rejected.
This nutritious part is cooked seasoned "just
right." rolled and toasted to a crackly golden-brown
crispness — Post Toasties the

And they cost no more than the ordinary corn

STATUS OF THE RIGGS BANK
Affdavits Seem to Have Made Out
Strong Case Against Conduct of
the institution.
Affidavits describe the Riges back,
through its officials, as persistently
breaking the banking laws; as unlaw-
fully conducting a brokerage and land-
loan business: as making illegal loans
to its own officials and to clerks on
stock collateral; as swearing false
oaths; as gaining government favors
from those about to enter its employ-
ment
Thev paint a blacker picture They
charge that illegal and improper Iosjis
were made to Senators Bailey, Quay
and Proctor; to the late Representa-
tive J. D. Richardson, who could favor
Standard Oil traction interests: to
Frank A. Vanderlip. now president ci
the Standard Oil bank in New \ork.
whose services to it in the purchase ot
the old customhouse are well remem-
bered; to former treasury officials,
among them Comptroller Ridgely. and
various assistant secretaries; even to
a secretary of the treasury. Leslie M.
Shaw.
If these sworn statements stand test
we shall have disclosed a veritable al-
liance between Big Business and the
government of the United States under
administrations more lenient with law-
breakers than the present We shall
see laid hare the secret course of pipe-
lines that led from the treasury-
straight to the lair of Standard Oil

Genuine Happiness.
A fact concerning modern religious
I activity, which seems to have escaped j
general remark, is that Christians J
know better how to play than ever !
before. In the normal times of re- ;
cent years a visitor at one of the sum- \
mer conferences of the student \ oung
Men's Christian association, for in- ]
j stance, would be surprised and de-
lighted at the hearty good times which
the delegates enjoyed Christian En
:: deavo-. too. has taught young people
how to play. The whole conception
of recreation and its place in life has
: received new attention of late years.
Anybody who Is seeking for it may
find abundant evidence that there Is
more genuine happiness and intelli-
gent pleasure among Christians than
among the follow-ers of frivolity.—
