This Is a game In wtTich no one Is
allowed to smile and laugh. All the
players, except one, sit In a row or
half-circle, one goes out of the room
and returns with a Btick or poker In
his band, and a grave and solemn
face. He Is supposed to have just re
turned from a visit to Bull.
The first player asks him: "Where
do you come from?”
"From Buff.”
The next asks: “Did he say any
thing to you?”
To which the reply la:
"Buff said 'Baff.”
And gave me this staff,
Telling me neither to smile or to
laugh.
Buff says 'Baff' to you all hla men,
And I say 'Baff' to you again.
And he neither laughs nor smiles.
In spite of all your cunning wiles,
But carries his face with a very good
grace.
And passes hla staff to the vary next

If he can repeat all this without
laughing he delivers up hla staff to
some one else, and takes bis seat;
but If he laughs, or even smiles, he

“Unreasoned and U nscientific”
Banking and Currency System
Responsible for Panics.
W ashington, D. C.—Strongly u rging
radical reform of the “ unreasoned and
unscientific banking and currency sys
tem of the U nited S ta te s,” Franklin
MacVeagh, secretary of the treasury,
freely w arns congress in his annual re
port th a t the Federal governm ent, as
long as the present scheme exists, will
be exclusively responsible for the com
m ercial, industrial and social disasters
which flow from panics, and attack
directly or indirectly every home in
the nation.
He outlined his idea of
the necessary general provisions of an
adequate
relief m easure, such as
should bring the banks into organized
co-operation and provide for a central
agency, through which they could
work together, free o f political or
tru st control. The secretary foresees
a deficit of $22,556,023, exclusive of
Panam a canal expenditures, for the
fiscal y ear ending June 30, 1914. In
cluding the canal expenses, the deficit
is estim ated a t $52,730,455.
The es
tim ated receipts for th a t y ear are
$710,000,000, while the ordinary ap
propriations are estim ated a t $732,-
556,023, and the canal expenditures a t
$30,174,432.
These estim ates are
based upon present laws.
For the cu rren t fiscal year, ending
June 30, 1913, MacVeagh estim ates
th a t th ere will be a surplus of $40,-
200,000, exclusive of Panam a canal
expenditures, and a deficit of $1,800,-
000, including the canal transactions.
He estim ates receipts for this y ear at
$711,000,000, and ordinary disburse

Assay Offices Are Issue.
Indianapolis—“ Good cooks are more
necessary than governors,” said Gov
ernor M arshall in his address before
the Indianapolis Council of Women.
“ I think there is no one in this world,
aside from my w ife, th a t is more com
p e te n t than my cook.
I think she is
well educated.
I don’t suppose she
would be received a t m any of the so
cial functions, b u t she does her work
as it should be done. Any w orking
man in th is city doing honest work is
more im p o rtan t to th is sta te than the
governor of In d ian a .”
W ashington, D. C.—The fight over
W estern assay offices is to be renewed
a t th is session, the house com m ittee
on appropriations
having stricken
from the legislative bill reported all
appropriations for assay offices except
those a t S eattle, Deadwood and New
York.
A t th e last session the house re
versed the com m ittee on this issue, and
probably will do so again this session.
If the house does not, the senate will
restore the appropriations and thereby
keep the offices open.
