Dun & Co. show 13,771 mercantile defaults, with liabilities totaling $337,089,083. These are staggering figures. While the increase may be attributed to prevailing bad conditions in business, that does not folly explain Che cause of such failure. The same six months in 1929 showed 12,172 failures. The total liabilities were much less, being only $232,128,936. But for either year the totals seem overwhelming. These figures show not only the normal misfdrtunes of business, but appalling lack of business judgment both on the part of those engaging in business and those extending credit to them. Such a volume of business casualties seem altogether too large even for this country. It shows-genuine commercial maladjustment that 13,771 should fail even in a bad year, and 12,172 in a reputedly prosperous era. What were the defects? The causes which many investi gations have borne out are usually poor management or in adequate capital. Individuals start in business improperly equipped either in training or financial backing. And they seem to get credit easily. Wholesale houses crowd their goods on them; landlords are eager to rent them space. They start with high hopes; then the bills fall due. Often the proprietor has taken too much out of the till for his own salary to have enough left for meeting invoices for goods, rent and overhead expenses. He staggers along a few months and then goes out of business. The consequence i3 disastrous both for himself and for his creditors. We believe wholesale houses and sometinx s though not often, banks share a lot of the responsibility for these de faults. They encourage the abuse of credit by extending credit too freely to those who really cannot use credit right. We do not mean to discourage the launching of businesses, though in settled cities this should be done only after care ful survey of the field and of one's resources. We do not mean that only those should be encouraged to enter busi ness who give reasonable promise of success. The loss from these failures falls on the creditors eventually, and in the meantime established businesses have suffered from the increased and unjustified competition. The figures that we have quoted do not include indi vidual nor financial failures, but for commercial and manu facturing lines including agents and brokers. There is one interesting feature of the Dun summary of the retail trade division: the grocery classification shows fewer failures than in previous years. This was reported for the month of Jime of 1930 as compared with June of 1929 and 1928. For about a year grocery insolvencies have been declining. This would seem to indicate that the retail grocery situation is becoming more stabilized and the mortality induced by the invasion of the chain grocery has largely spent itself. This would seem to be borne out by the present pause in expan sion of the grocery chains, and the declines in some of their stock prices. The National Association of Credit Men has done much toward the study of credit. But its work has only begun. Such a record of mercantile insolvencies as reported for the six months this year shows that all too many of our bus inesses rest on the insecure foundation of too much credit. A Woman with Money RICH women are often rather peculiar. There was Hettie Green whose eccentricities supplied manv a reporter with an interesting story. The other day a rich New York woman died, Mrs. Rebecca Swope, granddaughter of John G. Mendel, who like John Jacob Astor, his contemporary, put the profits of his fur business in real estate. Mrs. Swope was worth fifty millions or so and lived with her two sis ters, one of whom died in 1929. She was the only one of the trio who went out, and that was very rare. They all lived in a great brick mansion which survives among the tall bus iness blocks at Fifth Avenue and 39th street, now the heart of the retail section. The women kept up the tradition of their grandfather never to sell any land which they acquired. The press report gives more information about the fam ily: "The brick mansion, set among department stores, has been for many years one of the unusual sights of the city. Beside it is a apacioua yard, as city yards go, fenced off from Fifth avenue by a high bar bed-wire topped wall. "The yard was retained by the Wendel sisters, the atorv roes. la order that their pets might have self is aaia never to have contained radio set. "Six years ago family traditions of the Wendels delayed for eight weeks the beginning of building, operations on a 22-story structure on Seventh avenue almost, behind the Metropolitan Opera Mouse. "Tha Wendela refused to sign; isfaction tnat emergency medical kits, la the clothing; factories -which were to till the bunding, would not contain ta all more than 'one pint of liquor. The estate's net income from tho leasing of that property waa fixed at $1,000,000 a year tor 21 years. j One thinks at once, that gets no more enjoyment out of his millions than these her mit women. On the other hand, we middle class folk ar for. ever criticizing the wealthy classes for their extravagance and ostentation.

It la In the late sum mer and early fall that we are apt te ran across the snake that is dangerous. When the water dries In the hills and mountains they come down Into the low lands for water and food. Recent researches made at Washington university in ST. Louis, seem to show that snake venom is the enly poison In the world known to kill by atfectlna all the body at once. First Aid Ttreatmeat In cases of snake bite, the pur nose of any sort of iocal treat ment which may be applied, is to prevent the poison from getting into the general blood susoly. If not prevented from doing so the poison is carried to every part of the body by the blood stream. It the foot or band nas Dee-n bitten, a ligature of some sort should be tied tightly around tha the limb, being careful to bare it above the wound, or between the wound and the heart. A torn strip of shirt or handkerchief may be used. Or a string, ahoe lace, neck tie, a piece of rope, a wire, a piece of grapevine or a flexible switch, is good for the purpose. Whatever yon use. tie it firmly, after which a stick should be inserted under the ligature and tightly twisted. This stops the circulation of the blood from the wounded limb. Then suck out the poison and wash the wound with soap and water if available. No harm will come from sucking the wound if the mouth is healthy and without broken tissues. If access can be had to permanganate of potash crystals, these should be rubbed into the wound. Keep the patient warm and ad minister small quantities of cof fee until the doctor arrives. Various aerunu are Used for snake bite, but these should only be used by a doctor, mey may be had by telegraphing the New York Zoological garden, or pos sibly gotten through your local board of health. In the northern and eastern por tions of the United States, snake bites are rarely fatal. If you should happen to be bitten by a snake, do not worry yourself into a fever or fear. Quick action with the local treatment immediately on being bitten, together with tho use of a serum, make it probable you will have little trouble.

"Brandert The thief that's lying now in the irons I put upon hlmf Him? Him you say I love?" The very force of her anger should have told Dan'l the truth; , but he was so blind that it served only to rejoice hint. i I knew it!" he cried. "I knew it! So you love me, Faith." "Must a woman always be lov ing?" she demanded wearily. "Aye, Faith. It'a the nature of them always te be loving some one. With you. Faith, it'a me. Listen and see!" "Dan'l," ahe aald steadily, "what's tbe end of all this? What's the end of it all? What would you have me do? "Love me," he told her. "What else?" "See the truth." he eaid. "Un derstand that the Sally la lost fast aground here to rot her bones away. See that it's hopeless and wild to stick to her. We'll get out the boats. You and I and Roy and a man or two will take one; the others may have the other craft. It's not fifty miles to M "Leave the Sally?" she demand ed. "Yes." "I'll not talk with you. Dan'l. I'll never do that!" "There's the ambergris," he re minded her." We'll Uake that. It will recompense old Jonathan for his Sally and her oil.' "No!" Her word was so sharp that it checked him. He was up on his feet, lending above her, pouring out his pleadings; but she threw him into silence with that last word. The red flush of paTssion in his face blackened to something with the heat in him. He bent a little nearer, while her eyes met his steadily; and his hands drop ped and gripped her arms above the elbows. She came to her feet, facing him. "Dan'l" she said warnlngly. "If you'll not go because you will, yon'U go because yon must," he told her huskily and harshly. YouH whine at my feet afore I'm through with you. You'll beg me to marry yon in the end." It she bad been able to bold still, to Tiold his eyes with hers, she might have mastered hita oven then; for in any match of courage against courage, she was the stronger. Bat the horror of htm overwhelmed her; ahe tried to wrench away. Her struggle fired him. In a battle of strength and strength she had no chance. He Bwun- her against his chest, and she flung her head back that her lips might escape him. He laugh. ed. Hla lips were dry aid twitch- lag as she fought to be away from him. He held her for an Instant. held her striving body against hia own to revel in ita struggles. He had her thus in his arms, forcing her back, crushing her. when the door flunr ooea and Roy KUcob stood there. Th boy cnea la desperate warning: "Dan'l, Brander.is " Then he comprehended that which he saw. Ho creamed with the fury ot aa aaiaaL and flung mmseif at Dan'l, tearing at the man with ni strength of a boy. Dan'l had laid his Diana well: ha had tett sure of success; bat he- had not counted on trouble failure to float the Sally, she would bo crushed and road to taU Into his arms, ready at least w yieia to Us advtoe and come away and leave thh ship where it lay. - After that Danl had counted on geparatiag lb erew ly; losing the ouer Boats, too ambergis would be his; he would master the men with him. Faith and the treasure weald he hla. Brander was to stay in the Sal ly, ironed in the after 'tween decXs, Danl thought Brander was destroyed by the evidence of his thieving; he no longer feared the man. Not all the crew would go with him when he left the ship. Old Tichel had refused. "I've waited all my days to be cap'n of a craft." Tichel declar ed. "With you gone, I'm master o the Sally. I'll stay and get the feeling of it. And Dan'l was willing to let him stay. Willis Cox agreed to do as Faith decided. Long Jim, the harpooner, was loyal to Tichel. Loum. Dan'l did not trust. The man might stay with Brander if he chose. But Danl had on his side Kel lick, the steward; and Yella Boy, and Sllva, and four seamen from forward, and seven of those who had shipped as green hands. Silva hated Brander no less than Dan'l. tor Brander had taken the mate's berth that Silva had hoped to get. Sllva was Dan'l's right-hand man la his plana. And Roy, Dan'l thought, was his own to do with as he chose. Manger got some whisperings ot al this of course, in the fo'c's'le. There was no effort to keep it secret from him; no effort to keep the matter secret at all. Dan'l had said openly that If the Sally did not float he was for deserting her; those might come with him who choose. Save Mauger, there was none openly against him. Tichel would stay, WHlis waited on Faith's word, but the rest held off and swung neither cne way nor another. All of which Mauger, with In finite stealth, told Brander, sneak ing down into the after 'tween decks at peril ot his skin, night after night Brander, fast-ironed there, and taking his calamities very philosophically, praised the little man. "Keep your eyes 6ez," he said. Bring me any word you get. Warn me in full time. And find me a good keen file." Mauger fetched the file, pilfer ing it from the tool chest of Eph Hitch, the cooper. Brander work ed patiently at his bonds, submit ting without protest to hia cap tivity. That night of the full moon aft er they had failed te float the Sal ly Dan'l called Silva and bade him to prepare tho boats. "Get food and water into them," he said. "Take plenty. Make them ready. Tell tha rest of tha men to lower if they're a mind. Ita for leaving." Sllva grinned his understand ing. He asked a question. "I'm going down now to con vince her," Dan'l aald. "She'll come, no fear." He went below and left Srtva to prepare the boats. Old Tichel was on deck, bat Willia had gone below. Tichel did not molest Sil va. Discipline had evaporated on the SaQy; ft was every man for himself. Those who were tor leav lag ship were hotly impatient: and one boatful of men lowered and drew plowly away toward thet month ot the core when the Salty iay. There was no wind; the sea waa glassy; and their oars stirred tha water Into sparkllag showers like Jewels, Kellick, Telia Boy, and four seamen were la that boat. Five of the green hands and Tlach, th cook, eaaght tha in fection, dumped food and water Into another craft and followed. Sllva got his boat overside. He had with him two men mea of hia choosing, wha had signed as green hands, but were stalwarts f now. -He made sure tho boat was ready, then stood In her holding with one band to the ralL and waiting for Deal to ome with Faith. Roy, who wonld also go 1 this boat, aa on the after deck. The me fa tha two craft that had already left the shin were ly lag on their oars half a mile away, watching the Saily. Ia aU their THE ROMANCE OF AN EVENTFUL WHALING CRUISE minds was the hought of the am bergris. They had no notion of leaving that behind; and they did not mean to be tricked out of their share of it. Silva could see the boats idly drifting. Mauger slipped down to Bran der and told him what was afoot. "Two boats gone a'ready," he said. 'Silva waiting for Mr. Tob ey now." "Where's she?" Brander ask ed. "In the cabin. Mr. Tobey went to ber. He's not come up yet." Brander considered. "Bring me a handspike, he said. "It's time I took a hand." When Mauser had crawled on deck and returned with what Brander wanted, he pried open the filed Irons, stood np, and shook himself to ease the ache of his muscles. "Now," he said, "let'a go see." He reached the deck, Mairger at his heels, and started aft. Sil va. head above the rail, marked Brander'a movementa and sign ed hia two men to follow, and swung up aboard the Sally. Roy saw Brander and leaped down to the cabin to warn Dan'l. Brander followed him. Mauger. at Bran-der's-back, heard Silva's rushing feet and turned t o meetr his charge. Brander was at the foot of the companion ladder when Roy threw open the after cabin door; he saw, as Roy saw, Dan'l grip ping Faith so brutally. He heard Roy's cry, then Roy leaped to grapple Dan'l. Roy's eyes were opened in that moment; he had become a man. Dan'l had told him they would leave the ship, had told him nothing ot anger against his sis ter, and Dan'l counted on this, and feared no trouble from him. He forgot that the anger of a boy is not overstrong. It was swept away now in a lightning flash of understanding. When Roy saw Faith in Dan'l'a arms, helplessly fighting against his kisses, he leaped to protect her as If there had never been harsh words be tween them. The boy gripped Dan'l from be hind. For an Instant more Danl clung to Faith. His encircling arm tightened about her, so that ahe thought her ribs would crack. When he flung her away ahe was breathless and sick with nau sea, and she ten on the floor and lay there, gasping for breath. Danl flung her away and swung on Roy. "Yon young fool!" he swore.

HENDRICKS ; Voyage of the Lausanne: S - The coming of the Lausanne was the theme ot the annual Methodist day meeting held at Champoeg Park on Thursday. July 10th, under the direction of the Oregon conference historical society. The ship Lausanne carried 32 adults and 19 children. This May flower of the Pacific went to sea from the harbor of New York October 2th, 1839. (The reader should fix thia date in his mind for it la Incorrectly given in sev eral histories, ranging in their statements from the 6th to around the 20th.) "It was the greatest exodus ever sailing from an eastern port to any coast," says the history of the Catholic church of Oregon. Bishop Blanchet said: "No missionaries were ever dispatched to repre sent the various sects in any land Tinder more favorable aus pices than were the ladies and gentlemen belonging to the Meth odist Episcopal church amidst the wilds of Oregon." ".la This is certainly high author ity. They represented in the con tributions ot funds to the mis sionary society of their church the adherents of every other church then known in America, and of many who belong to one church. The government of the United States, from the secret funds of the president, contrib uted about 1 100 each for all the members of the expedition, in cluding the women and children. This "great reinforcement," as it was called, was the direct result of the work of Jason Lee, per formed in the Interval after his arrival at the site ot Kansas City, September 1. 1838, following his ride east from the old mission below Salem. Atwood in "The Conquerors" wrote: The Great Reinforcement "Lee brought to the coast in 1840 The largest missionary party That ever came o'er land or eea, To Oregon, to make her free; They built mills, and opened farms; They erected storehouses and barns; They established homes and schools; They built churches, and adopted rules American; in form and fact, The result of Lee's work and tact." S "a The Lausanne brought the ma chinery for the gristmill and saw mill that made possible the be ginning of the settlement on Chemeketa plain; the sawmill furnishing the lumber with which was erected the first dwelling in what became Salem, still stand ing at 960 Broadway. Then there was no street. The space be tween the mills and the first dwelling became Broadway when that part of the town that was named Salem, 10 years later (In 18S0), was platted. At first the settlement, after Chemeketa, the name of the Indian camp, was called "The Mills," and the first postoffice was "The Mills." Then it was called "The Institute;" the government mail carrying con tract waa to "The Institute." Then came the name of Salem, suggested by David Leslie. In 190t, when Atwood wrote "The Conquerors," he was allow ed by Rev. John O. Foster to copy a letter to him (Foster) from Mrs. Sarah R. Beggs, the last survivor of the Lausanne missionary party, then living with her nephew and niece. Dr. and Mrs. E. J. DeBell of the Rosebud Indian ageney, South Dakota. Readers who followed the Champoeg meeting ot July 10th will be interested In that letter, on the voyage of the Lau sanne.
