Literature's First Need.
Richard Watson Gilder had a dry
wit of his own. He once received
a call from a young woman who
wished to secure material for an
article of 3,000 words on "Young
Women In Literature." "It was a
fetching subject, full of meat," ex
plained the young1 woman after
ward, "and I saw not only 3,000
words In the story, but at least
6,000. But I never got any further
than the first question. Mr. Gilder's
answer took the very life out of me.
I asked him, 'Now, Mr. Gilder, what
would you say was the first, the
chief, the all-eRsential requisite . for
a young woman entering the literary
field?' I waited with bated breath,
when he answered,. 'Postage
stamps.' " Philadelphia Record.

"Oh, dear!" said Mrs. Youngwife,

"Oh, yes, mum he's all right now, i
but he was bad at first, I found his I

"Good gracious! What have you

this week has been the great weak
ness in securities. The failure rec
ord has been greatly expanded In
amounts Involved during the last
month, but the record seems worse
that it really is, because Its big total
of liabilities Is due to a handful of
larpe defaults, chiefly by brokerage
firms. The record, nevertheless, has
necessarily a depressing effect. It is
dllllcult, however, to discover any
material falling off In the volume of
trade ,alt hough it is undoubtedly
true that there Is less of the tremen

ago.
"While there has been no return
to the remarkable activity of a few

busily enpagtd In filling contracts on

slackening of demand in a few fin

stocks on hand and buy conserva
tively as a result, but, on the whole,
orders for materials are numerous,
although for smaller amounts than
of late.

Meaning of Ccnictcrv.
It Is not correct to say that "cem
etery" means the "city of the dead."
The word is from the Greek "Klo
meterlon," meaning sleeping place,
not the t'luee of the dead. There is
nothing in the etymology of the word
to warrant us In thinking that it was
originally intended to convey the idea
that the departed were really dead
any more than there Is In the old
Hebrew term for cemetery "Bet
halm" the house of the living.

TKKGi: OF COLLAPSE.
The chief bookkeeper In a large
business house In one of our great
Western cities speaks of the harm cof
fee did for him:
"My wire and I drank our first cup
of Postum a little over two years ago,
and we have used It ever since, to the
entire exclusion of tea and coffee. It
happened In this way:
"About three and a half years ago
I bad an attack of pneumonia, which
left a memento In the shape of dys
pepsia, or, ratber, to speak more cor-'
rectly, neuralgia of the stomach. My
'cup of cheer' had always been coffee
or tea, but I became convinced, after
time, that they aggravated my stom
ach trouble, ) happened to mention
the matter to my grocer one day and
he suggested, that 1 give Postum
trial.
"Next day It came, but the cook
made the mistake of not boiling It
sufficiently, and we did not like It;
much. This was, however, soon rem
edied, and now we like It so much
that we will never change back. Pos
tum, being a food beverage instead of .
drag, has been the means of curing
my stomach trouble, I verily believe,
for I' am a well man to-day and have
used no other remedy.
"My work as chief bookkeeper tn
our Co.' branch house here Is of a
very confining nature. During my
coffee-drlnklng days I was subject to
nervousness and 'the blues' In addi
tion to my sick spella. These have
left me tine I began using Postum,
and I can conscientiously recommend
It to those whose work confines them
to long hours of severe mental exer
tion. "There's a Reason."

Interests.
stories of fraud, chicanery, corrup
tion, outrage and oppression have
followed each other In such bewilder
ing succession that the ordinary cit
izen can hardly keep abreast of the
headlines describing them, much less
become acquainted with the multitude
of details, there is one process, started
years ago, which has never halted,
and which steadily and relentlessly
keeps its course, utterly regardless of,
t.nd unaffected by, the narratives of
fraud and corruption that ostensibly
form the important news of the day.
It 1b the Morganization of the United
States. A list of the present holdings
of the Morgan group would make all
former lists look pitiable and trifling
in comparison. The one billion dol
lars of wealth controlled by It, which
used to bo spoken of as if the
amount were so stupendous that it
could hardly be graaped by the
human mind, has grown to the still
more Incomprehensible figure of ten
billions.
The process of wiping the small
capitalist off the financial Blate
through the superiority of the Trust
form of organization, has of course
never halted, but in addition to this,
we have seemingly arrived at the
point whero the large capitalist the
erstwhile master of from ten to fifty
or one hundred million dollars is be
ing absorbed or eliminated with ap
parently as much ease as his smaller
brethren. This is the day whon the
large capitalist is called upon to stand
and deliver.
Hardly had the lato E. II. Harri
man been burled when the fact was
mado public that the control of his
vast railroad properties had passed
into the hands of the Morgan interests.
The results of the panic notably en
rtched this financial group. Coal and
iron companies, railroads and Indus
trial plants by the dozen wero Irre
sistibly drawn in their direction.
Little more than three years ago,
Charles W. Morsa bad consolidated a
coastwise steamship trust, an Ice
trust, and established a chain of
banks. Morse has disappeared from
the financial world disappeared into
a Federal Jail, wiiere he is row known
merely as "No. 2814" and his hold
ings have gravitated in the same gen
eral direction. Pending the confirma
tion of his centence be was permitted
to leave the prison for the purpose of
securing seven or eight millions of
collectable asstts, which he duly
turned over to the creditors and was
then thrust into Jail again. ' '
Heiuze, the estwhile copper king,
has been eliminated. His holdings.
accredited at about the same as that
of MoVse sixty millions have dis
appeared, and in ail probability have
taken the same course.
John R. Walsh, banker, railroad
promoter, mine owner and general
all-round financial crook, has gone
the same route as Morse. A search
for the heirs of bis financial power
would disclose' the trail running In
the same general direction.
In a little more than a week after
the municipal elections in New York
City, came the news that the financial
control of the enormous assets of the
Enultable Life Assurance Compauy
had passed from Thomas F. Ryan to
J. Plerpont Morgan.
And this Is but the beginning of the
passing of Ryan as an active financial
power la the economic life of the
country. Sigus are not wanting that
his grip on the existing traction prop
erties of New York City is being loos
ened, and the ever ready band of the
Morgan group Is waiting to act as
receiver.
Just as Mr. Ryan compelled August
Belmont to stand and deliver several
years ago, so now Is Ryan himself
confronted with his future devourcr,
the insatiable Morgan.
In the face of these impressive ex
amples of the ruthlessnes of one-man
power there has grown of late even
a greater personal dominion of the
financial world. By purchase, by com
bination and by community of Inter
est there Is now a J. P. Morgan power
which, embracing banking and trust,
insurance, industrial and transporta
tion companies, controls or influences
capital amounting to more than six
thousand millions of dollars. - It is not
necessary to say that this power is
abused to maintain the assertion that
its exercise Is altogether too great a
restionsibility for any individual, no
matter how good or how able. Con
servatively estimated, with no account
of corporations in which this one man
is on!y moderately or sympathetically
interested and with no reference to
the four Morgan banking houses of
New York, London, Paris and Phila
delphia, the principal Morganized or
partly Morganized institutions to date
are as follows:

Woman s Power
Over Man
Woman's most filorions endowment is the power
to awaken and hold the pure and honest love of a
worthy man, When (ho loses it and slill loves on,
no one in the wide world can know the heart aony
she endures. 1 lie worcon who suffers from weak
ness and derangement of her special womanly or
ganism soon loses tho power (o sway the heart ol
a man. Her general health suffers and she loses
her Hood looks, her attractiveness, her amiability
and her power and prestige as a woman. Dr. R.V. Pierce, ol Buffalo, N.Y., with
the assistance of his staff ol ahto physicians, has prescribed lor and cured many
thousands of women. He has devised a successful remedy for woman's ail
ments. It is known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is a positive
specific for the weaknesses and disorders peculiar to women. It purifies, regu
lates, strengthens and hciits. Medicine dealers sell it. No honrsl dealer will
advise you to accept a substitute in order to make a little larger profit.
