Washington tetter.
Senator Penrose and the Currency
Commission What He has done
for the Postal Service Old
In Service But Still Young.
Washington, Dec. 31st. Leaders of
the Senate are urging Senator Penrose i
to accept the vacancy in the Currency
Commission that will result from the
resignation of the Hon. Philander C.
Knox. When the commission was cro
ated last spring Senator Penrose was
selecU'd a niemher of it but declined to
accept the appointment because of the
condition of his health, which, at that
time, was such as to cause his friends
deep concern. It wim at his suggestion
that Senator Knox was named. $jt)pe,
then Senator Penrose has regained-'' :hf,
health. Ho linBsivon t he Senate leader
no direct reply, hut has the appoint
ment under consideration. His services
at a member of the commission are
especially desirable, owing to the fact'
that he is one of the highest authorities
in the Senate on the financial system of
this country. His familiarity with cur
rency legislation was emphasized when
he was appointed a member of the Sen
ate Committee on Finance. Pennsyl
vania had not been represented on that
committee for many year3, and a large
number of older senators sought the
honor that went to Senator Penrofu.
His selection was duo entirely to his ex
ceptional qualifications. At the time
the House and Senate conferees dead
locked over the Aldrich currency bill
Senator Penrose suggested the creation
of a currency commission to conduct an
investigation and recommend legislation
that would eradicate the defects of our
financial system. The conference com
mittee incorporated this proposition in
thp Aldrich bill.
The Commission has before it the
most important work relating to the cur
rency of the United States that has been
undertaken in the iia&t fortv vears. It
will recommend legislation, which, if
enacted, will bring about a reorganiza
tion of; the currency system. It is not
likely that this legislation will be brought
before Congress within the coming year.
Its preparation requires sound financial
judgment and a high order of construc
tive statesmanship. Pennsylvania has
been signally honore J in the selection ot
both of its Senators for membership of
the bodv that is preparing such legisla
tion. THE POSTAL SERVICE.
Senator Penrose's re-election will be
especially gratifying to the thousands of
men who earn a livelihood in the postal
service. There is not an employee in any
branch of that servicejwho has not prof
ited by his influence in the Senate. Soon
after he entered that body he began to
urge legislation that would provide more
adequate compensation for the men who
make the postal system of the United
States a model for every other country.
His appointment as Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Post Offices and
Post Roads enabled him to fully press
this legislation successfully. That liis
servicesin behalf of the postal employees
have been appreciated is indicated by
the fact that every national organization
of those employees has endorsed a reso
lution expressing gratitude for his ef
forts for their advancement.
A NOTA11LY I.OXd expkkiilnck.
When Senator Penrose enters upon
his third term, although one of the
young men of the Senate in years, he
will become an "old" Senator in point
of rontlnmnii service. Of the ninety
two Senators niin'toeiijliave been in the
Senate for a longer period than Mr.
IVnrose. Of these Senators nine precede
him by only two years. In 1SSI three
men came to the Senate who have been
there ever since. In that year Eugene
Hale, of Maine, entered the Senate
March -1th ; his colleague, William P.
l'rye, March loth, and Nelson W. Al
drich, of lihode Island, October nth.
When first elected to the Senate Mr.
Penrose was onlv thirlv-live vears old.

ANOTHER SUCCESS.
A Honesdale Boy a Member 'of the
Firm of Bloomingdale Brothers,
New York A Remarkable
Business Career.
Jacob JBlumenthal became a resident
of Honcsdale in tho early 'fifties, and,
being of the thrifty sort, as were many
others.of his faith in fact we might say
all of the Jewish- people who located
and engaged in business here he' pros-'
pered. His home-was in what is now
known as the Henry Bussa house on
River street, between the Farnham and
"Covered" bridges. There he reared a
family, among whom were three boys,
Samuel, Marx and Henry. Samuel and
.Marx eventually went to New York and
engaged in business; Henry died here'.
Mr. Blumenthal became proprietor of
a store in the Dittrich building, corres
ponding to the rooms now occupied by
Mrs. Spruks's millinery establishment.
His son Samuel was employed in the
store of the late Hon. Isaiah Snyder, on
the opposite side of Main street. In the
early evening of Tuesday, May 16, 1871,
a fire broke out in the second story of
the Cummings building, where Brown's
clothing store is now located, and, rap
idly spreading northward, caused a
damage of more than one hundred thous
and dollars. Mr. Snyder's store, among
others, was burned, with a large share'
of its contents, involving a loss of $48,
00(). When young Blumenthal decided
that. he could be of no more service nt
the Snyder ruins, he went to tho help of
his father, whose store was iri"such peril
that it was considered necessary to re
move the stock. Fortunately, however,
tho fire was restricted to the west side
of the street. For this abandonment by
young Blumenthal of what Judge Snyder
regarded as his post of duty, he refused
to pay him his arrears of salary, which
resulted in a law suit in which the boy
was represented by the late F. M. Crane,
and recovered judgment.
Two years later Samuel, accompanied
Sigmund Seeman, of the present firm of
Seeman Brothers, of New York, to that
city, and it was through Mr. Seeman's
influence that he secured a position with
the Bloomingdale Brothers, who though
of the same name were in no '.way 're
lated to him.
Jacob Blumenthal, the father, con
tinued his business here until Jan. 1875.
when he was one of the sufferers from
a $200,000 fire which started at half-past
two in the morning, in the old "Throop
Building," adjoining the 'then lateral
basin, and destroyed everything in its
path down to Cth street. His loss was
a stock of dry goods valued at $3,000.
After this misfortune, he also went to
New York, in after years visiting Hones
dale on peddling trips, on which occa
sions he made his temporary home with
Jacob Katz. He died in New York
some years since.
Of the boy Samuel's career, The New
York American, of Friday Jlast, gives
the following interesting particulars
"Perhaps in some instances a rolling
stone gathers a bit of moss; but here is
another instance of the successful ac
cumulation of a competency of the stone
that stayed.
From Honesdale, Pa., Samuel Blumen
thal, a boy of eighteen, drifted into New
York one day in 1873. His intention was
to embark in the wholesale business in
New York, but on the Tuesday after his
arrival, he dropped into the little 25x100
feet store then conducted by Blooming
dale Brothers, at 938 Third avenue, and
made arrangements with them which
resulted in his entering their employ
ment, the next day, at the munificent
salary of $8 per week.
His first post was in the hosiery de
partment. Tlu) store at that time sold
little else but notions, hosiery, corsets,
hoop skirts and a few white goods. The
installation of silks, dress goods and allied
lines came in due course, and young
Mr. Blumenthal was put in charge.
Ir 1870 the firm removed to the corner
of Fifty-sixth street and Third, avenue,
where considerably more space was
available. With the progress of the
business, Mr. Blumenthal's salary made
proportionate advances. ',His untirinf;
energy resulted in rapid increases of
business in the departments that drilted
under his control, one after the other.
Some of the great special sales in these
early days are interesting. 5,One of the
sak- that created a good hit of interest
was held about twenty-two years ago. It
consisted of 300 cases of cotton goods,
which in those days was a purchase of
untold magnitude. Another sale that
created a furore and diewsucha throng
that the police were obliged to take
charge of affairs in the street in front of
t the store, was held a few months later.
Tills consistedof several carloads of dress
j goods that Mr. Blumenthal thought bv
the pound. . r,i --4.I
1 lie calicoes were sold at one cent a
yard. Before the doors opened for busi
ness on the morning of the sale several
thousand people had congregated.
In those days, too, it was the custom
of the linn of Bloomingdale Hros. to
buy out stores in other cities. This work
was entrusted solely to Mr. Blumenthal,
and he bought out many largo stores in
cities close by and far away, for spot
cash. In all of the great ana important
steps of the store, Mr. Blumenthal was
identified.. He grow with his depart
ments, and in 1887 was admitted to an
interest in the business, which condition
continued for a number of years.
Mr. Blumenthal was one of tho best
known figures at the dry goods trade
sales. For many years ho has been well
known in the European markets, mak
ing a trip at least once a year, and
sometimes oftener.
In tradccircles in this city ami Europe,
Mr. Blumenthal is known (or his con
sistency and for persistently keeping his
word. In retiring, Mr. Blumenthal
carries with him not onlv the sincere
1 esteem of each member 01 the (inn, but
also of ins many fellow employees and
many of tho best patrons of the store.
It is his intention to take a long rest,
probably spending a year In Europe af
ter a sojourn in Florida during January
and February."
FLOWER 6UPS FOB ICfe
Charming Table Decorations For
Bridge end Puzzle Partiei,
With bridge and puzzle parties In
filll swing the hostess finds herself
asaln confronted with the problem of
offering- nttractlv6 favors and decora
tions fdr her luncheon 'dlUner oV 'tea
guests. Fancy paper ornaments are
always a satisfactory Investment for
the reason that they are effective, in
expensive and generally novel In shape
or Idea.
American Beauty rose cups are' truly
charming. One style Is made with the
large curling petals resting on the ta
ble, and In the heart of each gloriously
tinted flower Is placed a small ice cup
made of finely plaited paper held to
gether at the rim by a band'of "B6au
ty" crape paper' twisted Into a co'rd
and tied at one side. The petals of
the rose curl up around the cup so that
Very little of It shows. It Is not essen
tial to have leaves and stems with this
kind of cup. Another style Is more
true to nature, however, and It repre
sents a half blown La Franco rose
standing three or four Inches above
the table. The flower Is mounted on a
green stem which Is twisted spirally
so that the blossom sways as though
touched by summer zephyrs. Branch
ing from the thick thorn decorated
stem are realistic looking rose leaves
fashioned of green crape paper; then
the base of. the stem Is curled around
a green paper covered disk.
For a more elaborate ornament one
might have a cluster of cups Instead
of serving Individual ones. A spray of
blossoms with leaves looked charming
In the center of a luncheon table whose
decorations were pink. The flowers
were La France roses, six large beau
ties nestling in foliage. Each rose
heart was an Ice cup, and the spray
was laid on a mirror which was sur
rounded by more rose foliage.
Golden hearted flowers holding small
receptacles for orange Ice or an Ice
cream tinted to match the flower pet
als make a novel and pleasing decora
tion. These come In a variety of colors
and shades.
THE UNPOPULAR MOTHER.
Bad Policy to Trumpet Her Own
Children as Prodigies.
She who takes sides In children's
fights. The mother hen may fight for
her brood, but if the human mother
tries it even her youngsters are not
grateful for the Interference.
She who thinks her own lambs can
do no wrong, while her neighbor's
lambs are sheep of Inky dye.
The mother who trumpets her chil
dren as prodigies. They may be won
ders, but perfection palls when always
In evidence. Besides, what a store of
trouble for the children to live up to
their mother's boasting!
She who thinks It clever for her lit
tle ones to be brutally frank and can
not distinguish between-rudeness and
witticism.
The mother who Is such a poor dis
ciplinarian that her sole conversation
Is. "Johnny, don't do that!" "Mamie,
didn't I tell you to behave?" It pays'
to make children obey, both for their
own popularity and that of the
mother.
She who enjoys herself at the ex
pense of the neighborhood. Some
mothers play bridge all day, while
their children run wild, nor are the
Mrs. Jellybys extinct. ,
The mother who Is sure you are dy
ing to hoar Arabelle's latest effort on
the piano or Willie's newest recita
tion. The sufferer hates the mother
for tho forced fibs as much as for in
flicted eardrums.
She who thinks dirt Is healthy and
does not bother much what sticky
Angers touch. Mothers of flngerers
generally come under the social ban.
The doting mother, who not only
flatters her own offspring, but expects
all her friends to back her up In admi
ration. She who thinks manners are Inborn
and doesn't trouble to cultivate them
In her children.
HEALTH AND BEAUTY.
Iu massaging wrinkles use tho tips
of the fingers and thumb, always
working acrosd tho lino. Never follow
the lines of the (Teases.
For the baggy appearance under the
eyes rub gently with tho tips of the
Angers dipped In alcohol. Afterward
massage In the same way with cold
cream.
A pallid skin Indicates an anaemic
condition of tho blood, tho lack of tho
red corpuscles. A good Iron tonic Is a
necessity to Improve such n complex
ion. When shampoolug never rub the
soap directly on tho hair, as It gums
and Is nlmost impossible to rub or
rinse off. Always have tho soap in
some liquid form.
For falling hair try massaging tho
scalp nightly with a lotion made of
three drams of pure glycerin, four
ounces of llmowater and half an ounce
of tincture of cantharldes.
Iushy. Irregular eyebrows should be
brushed lightly with a camel's hair
brush dipped in olive oil. The same
treatment la good for stiff and harsh
eyebrows and Is said to make them
grow.
Pork should not be attempted as a
food except with thoso who have con
stitutions and stomachs of Iron, and
then it should be thoroughly cooked.
Children should never be allowed to
touch It or veal.
