The tinkle of a banjo down in the cabin floated up the com pnnlonwny and Bpread Itself around the dock. The girl leaned against the rail. The captain was first. "Miss Oldgirl." he said softly, "from the first minute yon decorated this ship with your charming presence. I have worshiped you. Yea. worshiped. Worshiped. As an old sea dog. the word ought to have "ship" In It some where. Will you go halves with me for the rest of this earthly cruise?" The girl was just about to answer when the first mate appeared, "Hear me before you promise," ho bogged. "If you don't make me the happiest man on earth I will jump overboard and stick out my tongue at the lifo boat. Say, yes; ah, s'yes!" Softly, though. The second mate is approaching. "Hear me, ere yon decide." he be sought, "I love you so much It's a shame. Nobody did. Nobody could. ! Won't you?" With a start the rirl awoke and ; ruhheu her eyes with two knuckles ? and a sigh.

Leo hated parade, display and cere niony, hated above all things heir.;: made an object of public gaze and nd ulntion. declares a writer In the At lantlo. Ills Idea of high position Was high responsibility; a superior was simply one who had larger duties, and the mark of a gentleman was a keen sense of the feelings and susceptlbll! ties of other:'. No one has ever expressed this at tltude ntoro delicately than ho him self In a memorandum found among his papers after his death. "The forbearing use of power does not only form a touchstone, hut the manner In which an individual enjoys certain advantages over others is a test of a tmo gentleman, "Tho power which the strong have over tho wonk. tho mnglstrato over the citizen, the employer over tho employ ed, the educated over the unlettered, the experienced over the confiding, oven tho clever over the silly?tho for bearing or Inoffensive use of all this power or authority or a total absti nence from (t when tho case admits It will show the gentleman In a plain light. "The gentleman does not needlessly and unnecessarily remind an Offender of a wrong ho may havo committed against him. He cannot only forgive, ho can forget; and he strives for that nobleness of self and mildness of charaotor which Impnrt sufficient strength to let tho past bo b?l the post.

President Taft's Recommendation to Amend the Pure Food and Drugs Act. The Pure |i*ood and Drills Act, which has done so much for iho peo? pie of America in providing a supply Of pUI'O food and drugs, was adopted hy Congress nftor many years of In vestigation ami deliberation, and in spite of the opposition from import ant Interests. It lias protected (he dealer as well as the consumer ngnlnsl fraud and imposition as practiced for years by expert adulterators and suh stltutors. One of the splendid features of the act prohibited misbrnnding that is. holding out to the public that a pro duct was thus and so, when it really was not. The misbrnnding feature of the act was not as clear as it miglil have been and, under a provision of the act. the Rurenu of Chemistry of the Agricultural Department was em powered to make rules ami regulations for carrying the administrative fea tures of the act into effect. \i Ii ist misbrnnding applied only to claims Which appeared Upon the label or container of an article of food or medicine hut later on. under a ruling of the bureau, the misbrnnding pro vision was given a wider application nnd was held to apply to all state ments made with reference to iho in gredients, standard of strength ami purity, nutritive or curative values of a product. The enforcement of the law for some time was carried on under this wider Interpretation <>i the misbrnnding feature of the net. Aboul a year ago, in what is known ? .- iho .lohnson Cancer Cure Case, the Supreme Court of the Cnjted Stales held Hint the misbrahdlng provision of the act had hoch extended by the Rurenu nf Chemistry in nil unwnr ! ranted manner and that, in the opinion of this august tribunal, an article was .not mlsbranded except misrepresen tations were made upon the Iahe- or 'container under which or in which the article was sold. Ah the public gen erally hail regarded the act In its broad aspects and power for good, it did not make much difference with them whether a misrepresentation was ion the label, in a newspaper advertise incut, or hi n circular loiter, liecauso the r<'still was die name, that the purchaser was deceive'!. President Tail took this practical view of tho mailer in a special mos sage to Congress, in which h<- recom mended thai Ihn Pure Pood ami Di nes Aci ho amended so as to overcoine Hie tiercel made manifesl hy the Supreme Court decision in the Johnson Cancer Cure Case. President Tal'l held that misrepresentation, no matter when or how made, should he prohibited under t lie terms 1,1 'his act. \t the following annual meeting of 'he National Association of Retail Druggists, an organization compris ing abOUl thirty thousand retail drug gists throughout the country, a reso lution was adopted supporting the recommendation of President Tai ft to Congress and the Legislative Commit tee of tliis great organization of re tail druggists, which llio Chicago Tri biinc lias termed ? the greatest organ ization of retail merchants in the world,'! was instructed to aid in ovory possible manner the passage of such an amendment bill as would make the President's recommendation effect Ivo. It Is now probable that bet?re Hie present Congrss adjourns and surely at the next Congress at latest, all tnis ropresontnt Ions of food and drug pro ducts, on the label or elsewhere, will be prohibited bj the Pood und Drugs Act and violators of the law sevplH'i.y dealt with.
