A number of little girls were
boasting about their respective fam-
ilies. They had passed from clothes
to personal appearance. then to in-
terior furnishings. and finally came
to parental dignity. The minister's
little girl boasted; “Every package
that comes for my papa is marked
, D. D.”
. "And every package that, comes
‘ for my father is marked M. 1).." se-
torted the doctor's daughter.
Then followed a look of contempt
.from the youngest of the party.
"Ho!" she exclaimed. “every pack-
in that comes to our house is mark-

The Jury Bill
(New Britain Herald)
Justice of the state supreme court
Who addressed ii letter to Governor
Trumbull against the bill designed
to eliminate “professional jurymen"
from the state courts. claimed JUS-
tice would be delayed and ditllcul-
tlcs thrown in the way of prosecut-
ing cases. especially criminal cases.
Governor Trumbull. however. was
not swerved from favoring the bill.
which prevents any prospective
.iuror who has seen such service
. during the previous five years. from
I serving the state in that capacity
‘ during that time.
It seems that our justices of the
high court have a faculty of getting
on the unpopular side of state con-
troversies with some degree of reg.
ularity. Chief Justice Wheeler was
a recent example. his prohibition
mcasure being blocked after much
discussion. and now the entire bench
of justices unite on an attempt to
retain a system of jury service
which most people have not regard-
ed as tending to aid justice.
When the so-called professional
jurymen see such service at repeat-
ed intervals they cannot help be»
ing well acquainted with the state's
ofilclals. and vice-versa. Even an
elementary student of psychology
knows that such acquaintanceshlp
by sight is of value in a criminal
trial. To be tried by one‘s peers
should not mean to be tried by
persons who have had a looking ac-
quaintance with state officials upon
previous occasions.

CHAPTER 133.
No railroad Journey ever “01‘4". on
Michael's nerves like that trip back
home from New York. The hot
stufllncss of the Pullman gave him
a Jarrlng headache. and he was
bored by the mile after mile and
winter-desolated ilelds. hazy with
dusk at first. and then heavy with
night: interrupted dismally now
and then by ugly little towns in
which a few lights flickered hope-
lessly. Perhaps he would have
been in a lighter frame of mind
when they retired at last to their
berths if Lilah had been less re-
served and distant. Wrapped up
in her thoughts—brooding. per-
haps-she had stared out of the
window. with its chilled glass
icing her nose. all evening.
Their "good nights" were per-
functory. It was as if they were
less than friends.
The porter regarded Lilah qucs~
tioningly as he made up the last
berth in the car.
The train was delayed in the
night. and ~breakfast found them in
the dining car with still two hours
of travel before them. Lilah was
brighter.
"if you don't mind. dear." he
said, over his cereal. “I‘ll go to the
office directly from the station.
You can go home in a taxi."
she nodded.
"Looks like I'll have to cling to
the old job for a while longer." he
smiled. making light of his fruit-
less journey.
"You appear to forget the atti-
tude of the directors. You surely
realize that they will try to get rid
of you now."
"Oh. I don't know.” He was an-
noyed because she had reminded
him of it. He had pondered the
matter considerably the previous
evening. repoeing in his berth.
waiting for sleep to come.
"0h. Michael! Don't be silly!"
she said irritably. thinking. "What
is the matter with him?"
"You don't understand the situa-
tion. dear. That gossip you heard
doesn't indicate anything."
"Very well. dear. I'm sorry I butt~
ed in."
"Don’t be peevish. honey. We
haven't anything to Worry about."
She finished her grapefruit in
silence. She was puzzled. A new
man eat before her. not the Michael
Mcnlow she knew. That is the way
she felt. .
"Don't forget. dear." she said
suddenly. "that Aunt Mary still
wants us to come out there. . . .
Maybe California would be a good
location for the business" Interest
kindled in her eyes: here was an
idea! “You could develop the
Orient as a market. Think of what
will follow the development of
broadcasting in China. with a re-
ceiving instrument in every home.
You know there are three times as
many Chinese as American!”
"Japan will attend to that. They
can imitate anything we make.
stealing designs. trademarks. etc..
and make it cheaper than We can.
They're doing it now in every-
thing."
"Well. just be Aunt Mary's mana-
ger. then."
Ho reflected sourli'. “No that
doesn't appeal to me." His break-
fast was done. They lingered a
moment longer. then. the bill paid.
they went back to their Pullman.
Michael sat down opposite his wife
and regarded her intently until. un-
comfortable. she took up a. book.
He caught it and laid it by his side.
“You think I‘m a failure. don't
you?"
"Why. no dear!" She looked
hurt. -
"Yes. you do. I can see it in
your eyes." His voice went down
a note in pitch: "And it hurt me."
And it did. Disappointment and an
injured ego were gnawing at him.
"It's ridiculous of you to talk
that way. Michael! Please stop it!"
She was worried now. Her love
for him began to show itself.
"Honey. dear. you know I believe in
you. You know I do!"
But that afternoon. after a mis-
erable hour alone in Menlow House.
she went to her mother with tear-
ful eyes. A memorable scene was
enacted there.

Watch For Bond Calls
. By GEORGE '1'. Bonus.
(Copyright. 1925.)
The business of investment is one
that demands constant vigilance to
insure success. Take as a minor ll-
lustiatlon the matter of called bonds.
When a corporation decides to avail
itself of the privilege in certain cases
whatever abilities they may possess.
the agreed upon price. prior to ma-
turity thereof. the only way holders
of coupon bonds. as distinguished
from registered bonds can” be noti-
fied. is by an advertisement in the
newspapers. If the holder does not
see the advertisement and has no
financial advisor to keep him inform-
ed on such matters. he is likely to
lose. six months‘ interest. at least.
An instance of this kind recently
is that of the Northwestern Bell Tel-
cphone Company. which calls for 1’6-
dcmption at 107 1-2 on February 1st
of this year its entire issue of first
mortgage 7 per cent. bonds. At this
\vritlng over 81.500.000 of these
bonds have not been presented for
redemption. notwithstanding every
effort on the part of the company to
get in touch with the bondholders.
Of course. in the case of registered
bonds. the holder is notified by mail.
but there is no way of keeping a rec-
ord of the owners of coupon bonds.
Consequently on August nrst next.
when the holders of these unredeem-
ed bonds present their coupons at
the bank for collection. they will
learn too late that there is no money
to pay the coupons. because the
bonds have been called. They will
receive the face value. but they will
have lost interest on their money for
half a year. This is not a serious
matter. but pretty sure to arouse re.
sentment although resentment is un-
justified.
Investment bankers and bond
houses make a business of notifying
their customers when bonds are call-
ed. provided they have a list of the
client's holdings. A trust company
will perform the same service. but
it is only large investors which avail
themselves of this help. If you are
the owner of any band which can
be called it is up to you in one way
or another to keep yourself informed
on this subject unless you are will-
ing. from time to time. to lose inter-
est. which will make a substantial
reduction of your income.
“1!“ Be Gets in nu. '
(Brooklyn Eagle)
Possibly Anderson is too confident.
We have a notion that any person
who had contributed friend or foe
—-John C. King or John Somebody
Else—accusing Anderson of getting
money under false pretenses would
have his day in court. This might
be an uncomfortable day for Ander-
son. Meanwhile the‘ dry agitator is
not sailinlr under false colors. The
black flag is nailed to the masthead.
What is given goes to him. And he
recalls the Reconstruction period
politician who was accused of divert-
ing funds intended for the relief of
widows and orphans into his own
bank account. His answer was: "Of
course I am not a widow. but the
man who says I am not an orphan
lies in his teeth." We believe he es~
ceped prosecution under the crim-
inal law ,but he never ran for of.

Dollar Chasers.
(A. D. Welton in Nation‘s Business.)
Are we a nation of dollar chas-
on?
My instinct is to answer: Yes; why
not?
What is dollar chasing?
There is one answer and that is
one word:
Business.
To the oraculsr reply nothing
need be added by way of illumina-
tion. business were accepted aca-
demically as well as practically for
Just. what it is. What is called busi-
ness—production, commerce. trade
and finance—engages the serious at-
tention of nearly all the people of
the United States. Those not direct.
ly so engaged are indirectly con-
cerned.
Nothing so conclusively demon-
.'(.. l')
honest, mt? skint"
strates that this is a demoeretld
country as the fact that business
claims all of us. it may be that we
have made a business of some things
that are not or should not be made
business. I
Preaching may not be a businead
but running a. church is. A collegd
president needs to be as much busi-
ness man as educator. and failure iii
the latter field will be less noticed
than in the former. There may be
poets and painters starving in attics;
but. not if they know how to market
their wares or to and some one yvho
does.
In a democratic country business
is the thing: business does not per-
mit fixed classes. It cannot survive
if there is denial» of equality of op.
