THE CUCKOO BILL.
BILL ha passed both Assembly and Senate which makes it a
misdemeanor to insert advertising handbills or circulars Df
twseo the pagea of a newspaper in such innnnnr as to k'1s'
tht reader the impnaaion that they are part of the paper itself. If
the Governor appro-yes the measure, newsdealers who put unauthor
ised adTerttainf sheets into the paper they tsfl and persona who pro
cure thin aort of publicity can henceforth be punched.
The Erening World waa the first newspaper to uphold Uic rifilits
of Ha legitimate adyertiser by an aggreasiTe campaign Hginnst the
unscrupulous who steal adrertiaing. It went gunning for tlioxe
Cuckoo who lay egg in other folk's nest until the public was thor
oughly informed as to their ways.
Advertiser who pay for publicity have a right to protection
gainst deadhead adrertisemenU. Newspapers have a right to pro
tection against spurious imitations of their own sheet. The man
who buy a newspapeT has a right to protection against fraud.
Gov. Glynn should promptly sign the bill. Teach these nefa
rious bird that unless they stop foisting their progeny on others they
will be caged and exhibited as warnings.

WOULDN'T BUY FOOD AT COST.
rvlHE failure of Chicago's $85,000 municipal store, which aimed
It o sell food to the poor and unemployed at cost, seems to have
been due to two causes:
(1) It waa in the stock-yards district, out of the paths of traffic!
It delivered no goods. Therefore it failed to offer tho first induce- j
meat expected these days by everybody, high and low, who lives in i
the city convenience.
(2) By investigating its customers and insisting that they must
not own property and must bo unemployed, it fsstencd the "charity"
stigma upon people who came to trade with it.
No venture of this sort can succeed that fails to consider the
self-respect of its patrons, whoever they are. The poor man is often
as sensitive when ssked to furnish proof of his poverty as the rich
nun when required to show that he is solvent. Nor do you tempt
the poor man to trade at your shop by keeping out the well-to-do.
New York has seen a few experiments with co-operative markets
and similar scheme to cut down the coat of living that came to grief
for much the same reasons. This town has about made up its mind
that the only way to get New Yorker to go marketing and save money
is to build the market at the most expensive corner on Broadway or
opposite the Waldorf and make every customer feel that the last thing
(hat brings him there is thrift

MONUMENTAL MISTAKES.
rAN you build a monument to a murder? Why then a me
morial to the blowing up of the Maine ?"
If Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor, were given a supply
of dynamite and a wrecking crew to deal with New York's "bad and
meaningless" statuary "the monumental eyesore of Columbus Circle"
wouldn't be the only work of art to become dust on the landscape.
Mr. Borglum is an enthusiastic dynamiter so far as much of our
national out-of-door sculpture is concerned. But, as he explains in
The Sunday World Magazine to-morrow, he has three or four inter
esting projects for filling some of the gsps.
He would build a monument to Washington. We have no such
monument in America, he declares. "There is an obelisk in the Dis
trict of Columbia which goes by that name. Take its name away and
it might go as a memorial to Cleopatra." He would build a monu
ment to Lincoln that should be something more than a "psnedo
Greek temple with as many pillars as there are States in the Union."
Also he would build a monument to "A Century of Disarmament" on
"the longest international boundary which two nations ever left un
guarded," and which has no memorial whatever.
Besides being a sculptor, Mr. Borglum is a vigorous American with
strong views as to the folly of borrowing facades and friezes from
Greece via Pari to express our own great nation. He hits his mark
without wasting his shots.

Letters From the People
I ck of Patriotism.
TO tb Editor at Th. Emliif WorM:
1 recently attended a theatrical per
formance. A company of actors pre
eentlng a musical act patriotically
trunk up our noble national hymn,
"Tho Htar Spangled Manner." I Im
mediately arose to my foot to the
strain of the beloved sons as a token
of patriotism. To my utter aurprlae,
mlncled with contempt, the audience,
with the exception of a few patriotic
Individuals, shamefully remained
seated. Tho usual enthusiasm dis
played on such occasions was entirely
absent. The audience's features ex
hibited not the least symptom of In
terest or of devotion. I can truth
rally aay I think It waa a disgrace to
our flag- and national honor. 1 have
visited many lands and I have ob
served among other people strict ob
servation of such patriotic demon
strations. As a true oitlaen of the
United States I wish I eould encour

at large. They dwell In a noble re
public among golden opportunities.

Concentration.
A WANDERING mind oovera a
lot of ground except with the
task In hand. When the mind
Is only half on the work the work la
only half well done.
Huppoae you were told to walk In
a straight Uae toward a certain
stump, dropping a pebble every step
of the way. Sunpoae. Instead of
keeping your eye on that stump, you
let It wander here and there, toward
this stick and that atone even ran a
llltlo way toward the diverting ob
jects for closer Inspection how
straight would your line of pebbles
toward the stump be?
Answer that question and bear the
answer In mind. Remember that Il
lustration. For carrying forward your
oureer Is but laying a line of pebbles
toward a mark. The mark Is success,
and each pebble Ir the Job In hand.
Concentration " means keeping
your mind on your work, on your
pebble dropping. With wandering
wlta and roaming thoughts you will
soon find yourself dropping not
iH'libles but footsteps, and your line
not straight and true toward the
murk, but winding, meandering, wan
(loring hliher and yon, with the goal
still In the distance and with the day
grown too short to complete the
Journey.
iMt no thoughts that are trivial and
not pertinent to your task Intrude
upon Its performance. CK each thing
oiir work requires of you with your
whole mind and attention. Bring
evory needed faculty to bear upon It.
After all. It la all said In one word

laughed the Fhllosopher-ess lightly. 'That's It. I suppose. That
woman simply MtUsI for a living! She smiles when he's late
dinner without even glacing at the clock! She smiles at his moods
grouches and they roll off her like water off an umbrella. She smiles him a

next morning. She wouldn't SKK a blond naif on hlu cout or a pink note In
his pocket or a fault or a flaw In his whole conmos If you showed them to
her under a microscope. She wouldn't acknowledge that he had been flirting
with another woman or had swallowed a cocktail If you pointed the facta
out to her with a diagram and a moving picture to prove them. And, after
all," added the Philosopher-ess, glancing with a thoughtful smile under her
picture hat, "that's the only way to llvo happily with or without a hus
band!" "Oo you MEAN that?" The Bachelor stopped twirling his cane and
looked down at her In incredulous admiration.
"Take him "as Is," or leave him!" reiterated the Philosopher-ess, nodding
sweetly. "The Woman who spends her days looking for flaws In her husband
and yet sticks to him like a postage stamp in as bud as the 'boarding-house
Seat who Is always sniffling ut the meals and growling at the service and
yet simply WON'T move!"
"Hear, hear!" cried the Bachelor mockingly. "If you don't like your
hotel, move! If you don't like your husliind, remove him!"
"F.xactly!" agreed the Philosopher-ess. "Kvery hunband, like every
hotel, has his faults and his ST uttrnctive qualities. Kvery husband Is
simply a compromise; a problem In addition and subtraction, to which
you've got to find the answer. After a few months any woman can do this
merely by adding up his fuults and his virtues in separate columns and

"But suppose the answers balance evenly?" suggested tho Bachelor.
"Then you throw In LOVE," replied the Philosopher-ess promptly, "and
see on which side It weighs most. If you decide to keep him. you sit down
and accept the consequences, like like a sportswoman! When you buy in

mother, looking tenderly at me and
the baby.
"I think they might have given you
a little more fifty, at least," I opined,
already planning what I could do
with tho extra $26 a month.
"I'm not worth It yet, dear. It'a

I dimly wondered where It waa to

little Emelle was born that night.
Mother took entire charge of ev

I could leave little Emelle with them,

and must of ne

For no matter
whether she la
made to pay the peualty of her '
crime or not, one point Is evident:
Th very things she was anxious
should not be disclosed are now be
fore the public gaze in all tholr details.
Whether It la written law or un
written law, pure revenge never
righted a wrong or actually brought
the satisfaction that was sought As
long aa she lives, this woman must
carry with her the fooling that she
took a life. No matter how much
suffering her o-called enemy might
have continued to inflict on her, It
could not possibly equal the general
and specific i-esults that her own act
has brought about.
On tho other hand, underlying all
this there la tho ever present greon
