S IS $ S SKIPPER OFl VE$S$L RU 'THEW OLE ROOST On his ship the skipper rules the roost, and nothing he does can be questioned. Recently, for instance,tho bars on the ships belonging to a trans- atlantic line were closed down earlier than usual at night. At the bottom of the new order there was a note to the effect that the captain could close then[ still earlier if he ehose, or close them completely or treat then[ in any way he thought tit. There is no civilian who has so much power as a sea captain. As regards the navigation of the ship, the captain pleasea himself as to whether he will take a watch (a!- -though he often dues.) lie gives his 1 orders to his officers, who pass those on to the men. None of his officers ase give an order contrary to the cap- tain's wishes. In the matter of offenses by seamen, the captain is both judge and jury, and one of his duties as to "log" or record the crime for official purposes. He then reads over the entry to the et! under. Should his officers do anything con- trary to regulations, the captain has the right to remove them from office and degrade them. Years ago the captain's privileges in the way of punishment were abused, tied few of the .sailors of those days, in the mercantile marine especially, were accorded a fair trial as we 0n- th,stand the I phraseto-day. oit the smaller ships that boast oo ch: plain, the captain takes on his duties. He conducts divine worship, roads the burial service, and even per- f,.rms the marriage ceremony when required. He is doctor and surgeon ii necessary, and has the authority to pledge his own ship or sell part of her CUT go. Only to his owners is the sea cap- teir accountable. Sh uld he fail then], then he must e prepared to suffer the consequent S. This may be the cancelling of his "ticket" perman- ently or for a number of years. Should this happen, the captain finds it very difficult to "cone back," and may drift inti the coastwise trade at which he used probably to scoff. WHERE SHORTHORN IS DAIRY ANIMAL FIRST Crowing appreciation by Britisn breeders of the influence of the sir, on the milk yielding qualities of the off' -piing is the subject of comment by the agricultural correspondent of the London Times, who points to the fact that the recent Birmingham Shorthorn sale, whereas the deritand for cows aand heifers was moderate, the competition for bulls bred from good milking ;trains was unwontedly spirited. F'urthcr evidence of the growing regard fur the real value of the bull in tt dairy herd is found in the re - k: "A few years ago prices cf lou guineas to 2110 guineas at joint public sales of dairy bulls, whatever the tr'rod, would have excited general seriui<c, bw now, in thy. better under- standing o, things, these figures call for lint, comment." What strike= a Canadian used to terms <•mpluyed with regard to that particular breed in this country of Rate, is the use made of the word Shorthorn by the Times cone: ponder: in reference to dairy 'cattle, without employment of either "milking," or "dual purpose." Only toward the end of his story does he make reference to the Scottish type declaring in criticism of a statement made by the county. organizer for Derbyshire, "that the effect of using a beef bull on dairy cows was not a good one," -that "The idea that Cruickshank Shorthorns, for instance, are detri• mental to the milking propensities of a dairy herd had been disproved by the success with which bulls of this breeding have been used in the fam- ous dairy herds of Westmorland and Cumberland, and even by the late Mr. George Taylor himself." This being mentioned b1' the Times correspend- ent, only to warn the lees experienced breeders against a possible assump- tion that all sires not of Cruickshank lineage are suitable for a dairy herd, or, conversely, that all Scottish Short- horns are outside the requirements of the breeder of milking cattle. EX -GROCERY CLERK SHOCKS WALL STREET liickville-by-the-Hudson is a slang name that New York reluctantly an- swers to. It is celebrated for the number of clever criminals or alpp??ost criminal coups that are achieved tfiere and also for being the residence of the victims of these coups. 0. Henry's bunco artists had the idea that Nenv fork was of all towns the easiest to work, especially by the impresario from the West, and this is -probably tine. At any rate the city that prides itself upon its sophist,itsation figures more prominently ttidn any other American cities in news of which the general moral is that a fool and his money are soon parted. Now and then the victims of the parting process are not properly to be de- sc';hed as fools. Sometimes they are among the shrewdest in the city. A year or so ago, for instance, Allan Evan laid a neat trap for the stock - exchange brokers who Nought Stutz motor stock without being able to deliver it. Their failure to make de- livery was due to the simple fact that Mr, Ryan already had the stock in his possession, and he would not sell. Something similar occurred on the stock exchange recently. The outcome remain uncertain, but it would appear that Clarence Saunders, founder of the famous Piggiy-Wiggly stores, has caught a lot of speculators who have been recklessly selling stock in the concern. He says that of the 200,000 shares, only 2,000 are not in his possession, whereas, many thous- ands have been sold. Scores, or per- haps hundreds of speculators have sold stock that there is no possibility of them being able to deliver unless they buy from Mr. Saunders, and of course, Mr. Saunders does not want to sell. He scents to he in a position in which he can make those who tI I1 k,kt.t..11:s6arbla id' iL^ti;a'uw qr. .. ,' f , D roiberyl Beautifies your hair Removes dandruff Stop* ft.11ing hair Grows Hair ask for 7 Sutherland Sisters' COMPLETE TREATMENT Fertilizer -Grower -Shampoo Alt 3 in one package $1.00 FOR PEOPLE WHO CARE to keep up their atlpoururtttec SEVEN SUT'H- 8IILAND SISTERS' OOLURATORS will transform their hair to any ahude dn,tred.

He has indicated that he all accept some settlements at $1 Ju a share, 'and others at $250. His 1 u, nils say that ins profits will run into the millions. His enemies < of the other hand,n say that most � of the .stuck is pledged to the banks fur loons and that he is likely to have trouble in getting hold of it. For some time the antics of this stark have been puzzling the market. There were strong indications that somebody was trying to form a com- er Recently the stuck jumped 52 points, and the shorts were without any stock to cover their nakedness, as < lie writer expresses the situation. The next day the stock was truck off the list at the Exchange. �So now the matter is between Mr,. Sanders and the brokers who have contracted t., deliver stock at a certain price and find that no, stock ,is available, except at a price that Mr. Saunders dictates. What usually happens in these cases is that when a settlement is reached, no stock changes hands. The stock remains in the possession of the man who has it, and he merely r,ceepts a sort Of ransom from the rash sellers. The amount of this ran - of course, has no relation what- ever to the real value of the stock. If Mr. Saunders is able to make the wise men of Wall Street jump thre,ugh his little hoop it will he ,nes more added to the triumphs of the farmer boy when pitted against the brains of the city. Even with - <nit this sensational climax, Mr. Saunders' career has been senna-' U„ra1 enough. His has been a swift climb to fame and fortune. He was born in Virginia about Ltl years ago, or less and was brought up in Ter:- neasee. working in the local grocery .store u:l holidays. and after school h,•ar,.

When mai;] i t.p, his rounds ta,aug orders he mad., a .study of the litt;e practical problems of the grocery business. He did not adr ertise himself as an etticioncv man. tut he had the quick perceptive fatal. tie: that efficiency men should have, and was able to make dozens of valu- able suggestiutts to his customers. mostly of the time and labor saving kind. He would suggest that articles most greatly in demand should be kept nearest the clerk's hand; that space might he saved by moving the ca:•hier's desk, and similar little im- provements that might not occur to the grocer who did not visit other grocery stores. Then he organized 21 of his cus- tomer as The United Stores, Inc., for the purpose of co-operative buy- ing for the group, and opened a stare of his own through which they could buy, his profits coming in in- creased sales. This project was a success, and in 1916 he went into the grocery business for himself. and the next year opened the first Piggly Wiggly store in Memphis, with fixtures and arrangements which he had patented. The chief point about this store and the other Piggly Wiggly stores that soon sprang up in different parts of the country was that they saves labor. Customers saved themselves. The innovation swept the country, and Saunders sold the Piggly Wiggly name and method to New York and other Eastern Cities for a large sum a fewa-. e Iv v ago. The purchaser was Rosiness Builders, Inc., which is now bankrupt, and it is said that the men who sold the Piggly Wiggly stock were deceived in that they supposed' the Piggly Wiggly company of which Saunders is the head, had some con- nection with the stores that failed in New York, and drew from this mis- apprehension disastrous inferences. MORE WOMEN WITH MONEY IN BANK TO -DAY THAN EVER BEFORE "Among all the changing standards of recent years none is more notice- able than the change in the standards of saving among women throughout the country," states a prominent To- ronto banker. "The number of women having in- dependent bank accounts has increas- ed enormously. The number of couples having joint bank accounts has stead- ily increased also, but the system and standard of saving has changed greatly. Women bank money more spasmodically hut in larger amounts than formerly, "Seldom is anything less than a Send for book giving of Trench's World-famous prep- aration for Epilepsy and Fits -simple Over 80 years' mtooeni.

Ontario five-doilaip bill considered by the ad- era a radian adult to be worthy of ieeot in a bank Kook. Two or three dollars is something apologetic- ally tendered by a very'humble per- son, but the one dollar deposits which once formed the foundation of many tine fortunes are now made almost entirely by foreigners and minors. "No, I do not attribute this to the change in our standards of earning, so much as to the change in our standards of spending. People like •w to enjoy their money as they get it. Parents used to be ambitious to save money to leave to their children, Now they are ambitious to educate their children, and let them do thu money -getting themaelvee, and thii ambition they hope to realize as they go along." Up to about fifteen years ago it was the habit of many city and town women, whose husbands were in re- ceipt of steady wages, to. make a regular weekly, fortnightly or month- ly deposits in the bank. A dollar a week was the average amount depos- ited by wives of workingmen earn. - teat from ten to fifteen eiolistre a week. The weekly amount /deposited by wives of men earning from fifteen to twenty-five dollars a week ran as higl, as live dollars a, week. "'Those were the days when bank o 'cials had opportunity to get ac- q,ainted with their depositors," says tfw banker, "for there was not so • `,ch moving around on the part at either bank staffs or depositors ,then' its there is now. The effort to save on the part of sume of our depositors [moused our interest and often our aumiration. I particularly remember o'e woman, the wife of a railyway section man and the mother of u growing family. "For fifteen years as regularly as the rising and setting of the sun she barked five dollars a month. Know- ing her resources and soiSething of her responsibilities, 1 once asked her how she managed to do it. '"Oh, 1 just squeeze it out some, how,' she answered, cheerfully. • It is this fashion of "just squeezing it out somehow" that seems to have, gene out. Perhaps women thought• they were by this method squeezing the orange of life too dry. "The pretty young bride of a machinist started a bang account with o'e dollar the Monday following her wedding day, and every subsequent Mcnday morning, almost without a break, for ten years she depisited a like amount. "We watched the financial career. of that couple with a sympathetic in- terest, and there was quite a friendly little stir in the bank one day when they both came in and drew out their ten years' savings, which amounted to a tidy sum, I can assure you. They halt seen a chance of buying a piece of suburban property at a great bar- gain. and they had money to say, 'Come in' when opportunity knocked at their door. "inside of three years they hall doubled their money, and now they <;eposit their hundreds. "Another thrifty woman whose hus- band was' employed in a packing. hoose deposited two dollar's every 'fuesday for eight years, always malt- ingthedeposits in person and missing play two successive Tuesdays every 10o years of. thereabouts. On her a1pcarance after each of those absent occasions she brought with her a new baby. When the first baby came the hunk account stood at an even hund- red dollars. The bank staff christen- ed the baby 'Old Hundred.' When the fourth. baby came the bank account had grown to such proportions thct the staff bestowed the name of Brew- ster on him and presented him with a gold dollar, which his mother prompt- ly banked for him as the necleus of an 'education fund.'" The Penny Bank is a splendid boon to many women who cannot squeeze nut the humble dollar bill required for a regular bank deposit. Surprising amounts in nickles, dimes and quart- ers are rounded up through the schools. Many mothers depend on these savings to buy the depositors clothes. Mrs. Blalz, whose understanding of English was limited, checked up Jak- cy's bank book thus: "All Jakey's money I draw me oudt by overcoat time and now it's up to boots so soon again and him mit his toes not showin' already. My gracious we get rich by t}tc penny bank soon if Jakey don't wear out his clothes some more quick.'
