A small boy of my acquaintance became highly Interested, not long ago, In the adventures of a naughty youth presented In the comic sup . plement of a well known newspaper. The youth In the newspaper sham pooed his sister's hair and annolnted the poodle with a mixture of Ink, glue and the family hair tonic, leav ing the remainder of the compound In the bottle for the use of his father and mother. The results as ptctorlal )y set forth were so Intensely amusing that the small observer Immediately took steps to repeat them In real life. Much mischief Is suggested In such ways as this, and the suggestions come from artists who have, little aympathy with children knowing them mainly as a theme to make jokes about. Analyse the humor In the funny pictures of our newt-papers, and you will find that In nine cases out of ten It rests upon somebody's misfortune an apple-woman upset by an automo bile, a sleeping tramp annoyed by mall boys, an absent-minded old gen tleman walking Into a tank of water. Such are the subjects that are given to our children to make them luugh while we are trying to teach them to be thoughtful of the comfort of oth ers, genuinely polite, and considerate of every one. Walter Field, In Fin gerposts to Children's Reading. Under the primary nominating sys tem, the charge la general all over the state that the larger cities In measure control the nominations. There are nHturally two reasons for this. One la, the largest cities natur ally have quite a perrenlutrc of the voters or they would not be the larg est, but a more potent reason is the fact that It eusler for the thickly set tled communities to register thun In the rural precincts. The candidates naturally work harder in' the thickly Settled places and tit to it .hut th-lr friends register. Unless the voter register they cannot p.artl-lpote In the prlmnry ruminating election In or der tha' the rural (!l.-tiui can com pete with the cities, they must make an effort to register their full strength for by so doing and atieni itig the pri maries, they will not permit the cities to dictate to the extent that they would otherwise, A month of prohibition In ttlrmlug ham, Ala., shows a decrease of a third In the aggrexnte arrests, a fifth In murderous assault, a sixth In gam bllng, four-fifths In drunkenness, a third In disorderly conduct, a third In 'burglary, two-fifths In vagrancy, and seven-tenths In wlfe-bc&tlng. One of IUiipen Knickerbocker. , ForiiM-r Leading FlitaiM'lul Institution Heady to Open Incurs. New York, March 25. After hav ing been declared a hopeless wreck by no less an authority than J. Pler pont Morgan, the Knickerbocker Trust company, most important of the New York financial Institutions to , suc cumb during the panic of last fall, will reopen its doors at noon tomor row. The assets of the bank are given as approximately $60,000,000, while the liabilities are about $49,000,000 The gross deposits amount to $46, $70,000. Deoositors representing $38,000,000 assented to the reorgani sation plan. Among these was Mark Twain, who Is said to have $50,000 In the bank. Principal credit for the reopening of the institution is ac corded to Commodore Frederick G. Bourne, one of the directors, who Is alleged to have spent $1,600,000 of his personal fortune In the4 effort to re organize the company. It is believed that the opening of the bank will have a favorable effect In restoring public confidence. The reorganized Company will start in afresh under a board of directors chosen by three men like Messrs. Lew Is Cass Ledyard, Henry C. Frlck and Myron T. Herrlck. Everybody Is con vinced that the regeneration will be thorough, for Just as surely as a burnt child dreads the fire so does the "soaked" depositor dread "water" and "plunging." To this belief Is added the reassuring knowledge that large sums will soon be brought back. Into the normal channels of business. The phychologlcal effect of such consid erations may be strong.
