"Well had the boding tremblers learned to trace
The day's disaster in his morning face,
Full well they laughed with counterfeited glee
At all his jokes, for many a joke had he;
Full well the busy whisper circling round
Conveyed the dismal tidings when he frowned."
(Goldsmith's "Deserted Village.")
L
BEFORE THE SANDMAN COMES
WOULDN'T you like to be the
sun?"
"Dear me, no! I would
much rather be the sunset. I like the
whole sunset better than just the sun
alone!"
Now who do you suppose was talk
ing? Birds? Fairies? Children?
No, none of those; Two flowers
were talking together and their talk
was in the long ago fairyland time
of the world.
In those days all flowers were
white white as the clouds and as
snow, and every flower could talk so
plainly that the fairies and birds and
creatures could understand and talk
back equally well.
These two particular flowers who
talked about the sun were cannas.
Lovely white cannas that thrust their
glistening petals above the green
leaves like icebergs pushed out of the
sea.
"But the sun is so lovely and gold
en," said one canna, continuing their
talk, "I'd rather be yellow like that
than any other color in the whole
rainbow."
The fairy queen was puzzled.
"How stupid you arc!" cried the
other. "Don't you see that yellow ia
a flat pale color? Now, I like the
flaming red of sunset, that is a gorge
ous live color worth talking about
you ought to wish to be red, as I do!"
Just at that very minute, before
there was time for the first canna to
answer the fairy queen walked by.
"Good afternoon," she said to the
cannas, in her cordial, polite little
way, "is there anything I can do for
you today?"
"Do for us!" exclaimed the cannas
together, "what do you mean?"
"I mean this," answered the fairy
queen, "this is wishing day. I am
around collecting wishes, every plant
may make one. and who knows?
maybe they'll all come trucl"
"Then I wish to be yellow!"
"I wish to be red!"
Both the cannas spoke at once, and
so suddenly the fairy queen was sur
prised. "Dear me. how quick you made up
your minds," she said, "you must have
been thinking about it before."
"We were," the two cannas assured
her. "And I want to be yellow," the
first canna repeated. "And I want
to be red," added the second.
The fairy queen was puzzled. You
sec .she had expected to make each
kind of flower a color, and now two
flowers of the same kind wished to
be different colors.
"I don't know what to think about
that," she said; "won't cither of you
give up?"
"I don't like red," said the first
canna, "I'd, rather be white!"
"I'm sure I don't like yellow," the
second canna assured her positively.
"Very well, then," said the fairy
queen, making up her mind quickly,
'you may both have your wishes,"
and she waved her magic wand.
Quick as a flash, the white of the
blossoms melted to yellow and to red,
and the gorgeous cannas faced each
other.
But alas! the canna that liked yel
low had to look at a red canna, and
the canna that liked red faced a yel
low blossom all the day.
At first that seemed very dreadful
to them, but as the days of sunshine
and shadow passed, each flower s,aw
ungucsscd beauties in the other's
color.
And. would you believe it? When
the fairy queen came by next time
she saw streaks of yellow on the red
canna and blotches of crimson on the
yellow bloom.

THE MOON IN THE CLOUDS
BY MALCOLM S. JOHNSTOtf."
I havo watched when tlio moon goes
so fast,
Fnr above all tho trcea so high;
And breathless ho rushes along and
straight past
All tho clouds, when they fill tho
sky.
And I've wondered Just why, when so
swift In his flight,
Ho never Is ablo to get out of sight.
And I've wondered and wondered Just
why,
(And I novor can guess alone),
When all of tho clouds have flown over
tho sky,
Then tho moon stands as still as
stone.
But perhaps ho takes rest when they've
all gono away;
Or, lonely, he's sad and Just don't
want to play.
And one day I watched while the rain
fell down fast.
For Lcerlo to nod
passed;
up to me as ho
But I didn't see him nor hear his quick
feet,
Before the light shlned high up over
the street.
Why didn't I see him, when I was close
by?
And how did ho ever reach up thcro so
hlRh?

BREAD LOAVES MUST
HAVE WEIGHT STAMPED ON
New Law Will Let Buyers Know
What They Are Getting.
Every loaf of bread to be sold. In tho
future. In this city, must bo marked ac
cording to its weight. By authority de
rived under tho new "commodities" net
an order to that effect will soon be Is
sued by tho Bureau of Weights nnd
Measures of tho County Commissioners.
The exact quantity of all goods sold In
sealed packages will also have to be
stamped upon tho boxes. In tho selling
of groceries, for instance. It will no
longer be possible to buy n "box of
ttarch" but Instead the housekeeper will
receive a "pound box" or a "half-pound
box of starch."
Tho traditional "box of candy" will
also give way to the pound, for the rea
son that tho law creating tho new Bu
reau of Weights and Mensures requires
that It compel nil merchants to sell their
wnres according to an exact standard of
measurement. Such measures as a
"bagful" will hereafter be held Illegal by
the bureau.
The order concerning the solo of bread
Is of paramount Importance. According
to E. J. Cattelt, municipal statistician,
about 1.00O.00O loaves of bread are sold In
Philadelphia dally. There are about 1200
bakers, each of whom will be obliged to
comply wltli tho new regulation.
Olilclal notice has not yet been sent to
any of the bread producers, but an at
tache of tho bureau sal.l today that such
action will soon bo tnken. Every baker
will be notified either Indirectly or direct
ly thut he must stamp the weight of tho
bread ui each loaf.
The putposo of tlio law Is to enable the
consumer to Judge the amount ti,.,. h.
fcho Is receiving for 5 cents. Heretofore
a loaf of bread could be made In any size
or weight without tho knowledge of the
purchaser. In some States the law even
dictates a definite weight for a S-cent loaf
and unless that amount Is given the store
keeper may not sell It as "a loaf."
POLICEMEN EXONERATED
Trial Board Acquits Four Accused of

MERCHANT MARINE
SUCCESS A NATIONAL
TEST, SAYS MAGNATE
Responsibility in Great Op
portunity Rests on Govern
ment and Business Men,
According to Delaware
and Hudson President.
NEW YORK, Sept. 24. Judge L. F.
Lorce, president of tho Delaware nnd
Hudson Railroad, arrived hero today
aboard the Southern Pacific steamship
Antilles from Genoa. Speaking about the
plans, nqw being promoted for tho expan
sion of the American Merchant Marine,
he said that not since tho Napoleonic
wars has so great an opportunity been
presented to the United States to build
up Its shipping and to extend Its foreign
trade.
"The extent to which we utilize this
opportunity to establish a Merchant Ma
rino and extend our foreign commerce
wilt be n fair mensuro of the capacity of
our bupiness men nnd the Washington
administration. Tho responsibility for any
failure, partial or total, must reht upon
ono or both of these forces."
In referring to the economic losses sus
tained by tho warring nations. Judge
Lorro said:
"The thing that most appeals, to the
man whoso habit of thought has been
along business lines, after mnklng due
allowance for tho vast destruction of
life and. tho distress which will naturally
follow with tho loss of heads of fam
ilies and the support of tho disabled, Is
the tremendous waste of capital and tho
effect of that loss on the future. Mod
ern Industrial condition require tho capital
Investment of about JKXO for each work
man employed.
"The total dally expenditure of the
powers engaged hns tho proetlcal rrrpct
of destroying the means through which
ICOO men can be kept permanently at
work. Tho Indirect effect must bo half
again as large, so that tho ability to
employ permanently COno men Is destioyed
each day as the war progresses, uf
course, this does hot mean that those
men will be absolutely Idle, but rather
that the loss must bo distributed over
thoso who are kept at work.
"The effect necessarily will bo espe
cially severo on the younger men seek
ing employment for tho first Urn. The
destruction of capital through taxation
of savings, tho Inheritance t.ixeB nnd
the income tnx Is just as certain anil
hns Just as baneful nn effect as Its de
struction through war.
"Tho uuthors of these taxes may not
seem so culpable ns tho authors of
wars, but considering the relatlvo
periods of duration of their activities,
these civil destroyers undoubtedly work
more harm to civilization than the mili
tary ones."

BOSTON, Sept. 2.-"After witnessing1
the sad scenes of devastation and destruc

Europe, wo havo reason to congratulate
ourselves and to ebthankful to Almighty
God that our beloved country Is enjoying
the blessings of peace," en Id Cardinal
Gibbons, who, with Cardinal O'Connell,
returned from Naples today on tho liner
Canoplc.
"Tho United Stntes Government de
serves great credit for Its splendid work
In facilitating tho return home of so
many American citizens In Europe as
a result of tho war. Thcro wero thou
sands of our fellow citizens there. Mnny
of them had gono to Europe with only
enough moony to defray their regular
travelling expenses and were wholly un
prepared for tho conditions they found
thrust upon them. Our American ambas
sadors and consuls deserve unstinted
praise for what they did to help those
people to return to America."
Cardinal Gibbons nnd his traveling
companions, accompanied by Bishop
Corrlgan, of Baltimore, nnd Monstgnor
Shahnn, rector of tho Catholic University

In the full possession ot national honor
and lasting peace.
TOO LATE FOR CONCLAVE.
"Three of the American cardinals ar
rived too late to participate in the elec
tion, Cardinal Gibbons. Cardinal Begin
and myself. The ancient regulation of
beginning tho conclave on tho 10th day
after tho death of tho Popo was made
when cardinals did not reside ns such a
great distance from Rome as they do
now. nnd undoubtedly a new regulation
will bo made In relation to the opening
of the conclave that will enable tho
In
American cardinals to reach Rome
time to participate In the election.
"Tho cholco of Cardinal Delia Chlesa
as Pope has nlrendy produced a most fa
vorable Impression. At this particular
tlmo there Is great need of a vigorous
Pontiff, with a knowledgo of diplomatic
relations and with wldo, practical ex
perience In tho affairs of the Church and
the State.
"The present time Is a most trying ono
In which to begin the arduous lahors of
Pontiff, nnd Pope Benedict XV will at
the very outset of his pontificate be cnllcd
on to face ns serious and as difficult a
problem ns ever fell to tho lot of a sov
ereign Pontiff, but in his labors he will
havo the prayers and cooperation of all
his bishops, priests nnd people throughout
tho world.
"On throe separate occasions during my
short stay In Rome tho Holy Father re
ceived me In private conference, and I
wns amazed at the wonderful qua'lties
ho displayed. His readv and quick grasp
of affairs, his Intimate knowledge of men
nnd conditions, his gracious tact nnd
courtly benrlng, his manifest love and
burning desire for tho betterment nnd
happiness of the people, his deep knowl
edge nnd simple faith. Impressed mo In a
marked degree, and promises a glorious
reign for the Church nnd for tho peoplo
