Reports of foreien coun tries, Austria for example, show ttfat the Increase of thrift caused by postal banks has the effect of increasing de posits in commercial savings banks. The United States is the only enlight ened nation not In line on this matter, for the Swiss and Germans have mu nicipal banks." One "argument" advanced by agents of the American Bankers' association is this: "What this country needs is Sidney In the country, and the postal anks will take money out of the coun ty'.' The records show that about J350. 000,000 of this country's (3.000,000.000 of currency is hidden away out of fear of banks, most of which would be brought into circulation again to help the business revival along, if deposits could be made with Uncle Sara's post office department.

HANDS CRACKED Two Very Happy Small Boys. Here is a picture of two little boys, each 5 years old and each with but one parent, who chum together all day long all the time and who are unconsciously attracting a great deal of attention these days because they live almost in the heart of the city. They have no back yard and no attic in which to romp, but it's mighty little they care, for one has a soldier suit and the other a policeman's uniform with a badge, and a real helmet and a big club, and tbey have the whole town for a playground. One of them is Darrel Trine, alias "Sunny Jim" and the other is David John Julien, alias "Murphy the Cop.' Darrel is a son of the late W. O. ("Dad") Trine, athletic trainer at the Oregon Agricultural college, and David Johns Jullen's papa lives in the Klondike. David or rather "Murphy the Cop" doesn't know his father's initials, his traffic even then; hut in those days It was looked upon as the outcome of a diseased religious enthusiast and was given but little credence by the ordiaary thinking public. Now that all of the civilized nations of the globe have mado the abolition of the whole slave traffic a matter, of International agreement, per sons receive it in a different spirit." Hundreds of other tetters have been received which show the need of or ganized effort. A California woman saked for another article in the Worn an's World, upon "What the women of America can do to help bring about legislation that would stop the whlto slape trarnc. Grain to Turn to th Pacific. The first real indication of the revolu tlon in traffic routes that will follow the completion of the Panama canal Is contained in an announcement by the president or one or ttie Dig canaaian railroads that when the canal is opened a large part of the western Canadian erain that now passes through Port Arthur, Fort William and Chicago, will be diverted to the Pacific, when it will be sent by steamer to Europe and Asia. This prediction, of such practical im portance to the west, if only by Its sug gestion of other changes, is the latest utterance or u. M. nays, me neaa or the Grand Trunk Pacific and one of the most rar sighted men in tne railway world today. "At present," he said, "the wheat crop Is either hurried to the ports on the great lakes, Duluth, Fort Wil liams and Chicago, during the few weeks between threshing and closing of lake navigation in November, or it is held ud for six months in elevators at a con sfderable cost, or again, if It is carried through to the eastern seaDoard in win ter, when the St. Lawrence route Is closed by ice, the long hand through heavy snow maxes tne operation dirrt cult, costly, and even disastrous both for the railway and to the farmer. West bound from Saskatchewan and Alberta to Prince Rupert, the grades are easv there is very little snow in winter, so that when the Panama canal opens in six years I look to see Prince Rupert one of the very great grain ports of the world. To the East via the West. "I iave more than once ventured the prediction that in my lifetime we shall haul to the Pacific as much graln as we shall haul to the Atlantic. We expect that our easy gradients which are due not only or chiefly to our 'generous ex penditures,' but to our possession of the Yellow Head pass through the Rockies, will in a few years twist around a great portion of the wheat export trade of the northwest, and with the opening of the Panama canal in 114 sena wneat to Eu rope (let alone to Asia) by way of the Pacific. Already our trains are running regularly over tne wnoie section bbo miles west of Winnipeg into Alberta. The newly arrived settlers have har vested a great wheat crop great, both In quantity and in quality, greater still for the price it Is bringing. A our Pa cific terminal. Prince Rupert. from which I returned recently, good progress Is being made with the grading of the first hundred miles east, and I see no reason to doubt that by the autumn of 1911 our first train will break through to tidewater, passing from the Atlantic to the Pacific." ICaoh Score TJn Kin Tailors. The fashion center of the United States, so far as men are concerned, will be in Chicago soon, for during the first week of February the Merchant Tailors' National Protective assocatlon will hold its'annual convention at the Auditorium hotel This organization of the leading custom tailors of the country makes one of the features or lis yearly gatnerlngs an exhibit of new garments which pre sent innovations in fabric, cut or style. A committee of leading members of the organization sifts out the hundreds of ideas submitted st the garment exhibit and put forth at the sessions of the con vention and prepares a report as to what changes are to be introduced In the ap parel of well dressed men. In other words, the styles for men for the next half year are to be practically decided in this city between February 1 and 8, which Is th date of the convention. Two departures have been made by the tailors in connection with their gathering for 1909. -The first of these Is in holding the meeting la Chicago Instead of at some eastern point, as formerly, and the second is in deciding to admit tailors who are not members of the organisation to the exhibition of new garments upon payment of a fee of $10., In this way tailors In the smaller-, cities, or who do such a small business that they cannot afford to belong to the exclusive tailors' association, wll,l have he opportunity to profit ' hy-the Ideas- arid experience of the leaders of fashion In the big cities. The. reason for thus letting down the bar Of exclusiveness is announced to be mother is dead and his aunt In whose home he eats and sleeps wasn't home yesterday, so that's about all the his tory of David that leaked out. However, neither boy cares a snap for anything about the other's immedi ate ancestry and when they were asked they avowed that thev would rather display their ability In marching the buttlnskv off to Jail or hunting the In dians than "golng back into history about which they knew nothing. This picture was taken at Park and Alder streets In front of the Palmer house, where Darrel Trine lives. His chum lives at Twelfth and Alder. After the photographer had snapped the pic ture the little fellows scampered off up thj& street. "Come on. old pal, I see an Indian," said the soldier, "Let's get him and put him in Jail," came the re sponse, and then they dodged around the corner to buy some randy with the two nickels they received for posing. a desire to improve the standard of dressing among Americans. A menace to Chicago's continued growth was pointed out by the secretary of Mayor Busse's harbor commiftsion. George C. Bikes, in a report on the ob- i etacles to the elty's water shipping de- j velopment. "The balance between rail j oiiu water raica bi imcago is so aeii cate that it does not take much to turn the scale one way or the other." he said. "Because of the fact that the water haul from Buffalo to Chicago Is about 400 miles farther than the rail haul, the cheapness of water as compared with rail carriage is not so marked in the case of Chicago as it Is, for example, with Duluth. But while Duluth gets a large comparative Raving bv the water haul, it does not offer the same Induce ments to the railroads. Let Chicago, through its failure to provide adequate harbor facilities, deprive itself of the benefit of water transportation, ahd It will soon see the railroad doing less to auvance us interests, because the In centlve to do so will be removed. As long as the water route is available, the railroads must be on the alert to serve Chicago well and cheaply. It Is signifi cant that the present movement for the generul increase of railroad freight rates comes at a time when the rail roads have the water rate situation be tween Chlcaao and New York well In hand." Pointing out the value of water transportation to anv cltv. Mr. Kikes observed: "Chicago's supremacy Is due to the fact that It is the world's irreat- est railroad center and the railroad cen tralization at this point would seem to be due in turn to the city's strategic location with reference to lake trans portation. Deprive Chicago of Its ad vantages with reference to water car riage and there would be danger of in land rail centers approaching It in im portance." Saving Coal at th Furnace. The nation's inroads upon Its coal pile bv the wasteful methods of minincr and still more wasteful methods of using fuel have added a novel step In exact science toward the conservation of coal, now 96 per cent wasted In the Krocesses of producing power. A device as been perfected by the latest type of specialist, the "combustion engineer," with which one Is enabled to learn what eases are present In a furnace and what ones go up the chimney and thus deter mine why a chimney belches soot, how many heat units are wasted, and why, so that more power can be produced from coal consumed than has been the common practice. "The field of flua gas analysis in as yet an unexplored territory to most of us,'' said the in ventor of this device, Joseph W. Haves of Rogers Park, 111., who was called upon to explain to Chicago's smoke commission why the city is delugrd with unconsumed particles of coal In spite or efforts made in good raith to check the waste. In a monograph on How to Build bp Furnace Efficiency." which authorities regard as the last word on this very practical subject, be said: "There are dollars to be saved at the furnace, and only dimes at the engine. The problem Is to burn all of tne comnustinie wnn tne least surplus air. Low wages paid to firemen gets poor men, yet a man who knows how to Are a boiler right will save the amount of his wages over and over again." Partly because of the anti-smoke cru sade in Chicago, Mr. Hayes' Invention has been put to practical use in this cltv with success that shows when It Is generally used the country's coal sup ply will last longer than Is now prom ised hv the methods In general use. Ac. cording 'to figures of the conservation commission, the country's coal mines will be exhausted by the end of the next century unless we slow up in the reck less waste -of fuel, get more horse power out Of evry carload and devise more economical methods of power pro duction. ft LAWYERS EAT Grape-Nuts "It Builds the Brain" "There' a Reason"' awry Cleiraice Gil Clearance Sale of Gloves Clearance Sale of Hosiery Clearance Sale of Ribbons Clearance Sale of Silks Clearance Sale of Dress Goods Clearance Sale of Linens Clearance Sale of Trimmings Clearance Sale, of Books Clearance Sale of Underwear Clearance Sale of Veilings Clearance Sale of Stationery Clearance Sale of Leather Goods Clearance Sale of Corsets Clearance Sale of Infants' Wear Clearance Sale of Millinery Clearance Sale of Furs Clearance Sale of Waists Clearance Sale of Suits Clearance Sale of Lace Curtains Clearance Sale of Trunks Clearance Sale of Bags All UndcrmusISns Reduced Every Gar ment in Cloak Department Is Reduced All Pictures, Jewelry and Holiday-Goods Reduced Goods Reduced in All Depts.

Liquor consumption has Increased among the Indians of Yukon territory the last year or two ito an alarming degree. All the author ities and the clergy are striving to hold down the practice, but the reds, having had a taste of the white man's hootch, will not let It alone. in Dawson just now are four men serving time in the jail for supplying Indians with liquor, and two of thu Indians are doing time for having been drunk and disorderly. in n'hMiinrs Heveral of file Indian (are in 'ail for the same offense and some of the whites who provided the llminr are in durance.
