Sleeping In Hot
Nothing so fortifies one against at-
tacks of hot weather as a good night's
sleep. -For lots of people nothing is
harder to get. If you have not taken
amount of exercise, per-
haps you don't deserve much sleep. If
you are troubled with Indigestion, eat
a light fruit supper, or omit It en-
If your room or your bed Is
hot. or If you are too warm to go to
sleep quickly on a bot night, take a
cool bath Just before A tub
bath is excellent, but a cold rub down
with a doth or sponge Is almost as
good. After thus becoming throughly
cleansed and cooled by such a bath, it
is comparatively to get a good
night's sleep in spite of the hot

any such dross philosophy. He was
grateful for having had so beautiful

honest a sire; and if either of them
had endued him with false weights he
did his best to even up the balance.
The mother had been as romantic
as any heroine out of Mrs.
novels, while the father had owned
to as much romance as one generally
finds In a thorough business man,
which Is practically none at all. The
very name Itself Is a bulwark against
the intrusions of romance. One can
not lift the imagination to the pros-
of picturing a Jones In ruffles
and pinking a varlet In the
midriff. It smells of sugar-barrels and
cotton-bales, of steamships and rail-
roads, of stolid routine In the office
and of placid concern over the dally
news under the evening lamp.
Mrs. Jones, lovely, lettered yet not
worldly, had dreamed of her boy,
bayed and decorated, marrying the
most distinguished woman In all Eu-
rope, whoever she might be. Mr.
h d had no dreams at all, and
had put the boy to work In the ship-
ping department a little while after
the college threshold had been crossed,
outward bound. The mother, while
sweet and gentle, had a will. Iron

Algernon and a decent

man agreed if. on the other hand,
the boy's first name should be George
and that lie should learn the business

tilts over the matter, but at
length a truce was declared. It was
agreed that the boy himself ought to

fifteen, when he was starting off for

It seemed just an ordinary
of routine for him to pick up French

his mother's ambition was to see him

himself to the task as if everything

financial relations of hanks

A poll of the banks In this city,
which is fairly representative of other
communities shows that out of
institutions only two have
complied with the made by the
House committee statements of
their business. According to these
bankers most of the financial
of the country are awaiting fur-
developments before taking a
stand In the mater.
Bankers generally have closely fol-

and Robot L. Fryer,

of Buffalo, N. Y. who flatly re-

the ground the committee had no right
to demand them. Mr. Fryer has not
forced to furnish
yet, and until he is. members of
financial concerns here say, that bank-
generally will take steps.
The congressional committee has
taken no action in the matter. Ac-
cording to Representative they
are awaiting the action of Congress
on an amendment to National

Personally, Mr. is of the

no right under law to force any
bank or trust company to disclose the
details of Its business.
At the Capitol, the same general

authority to compel bankers, trust
companies or other financial

them to the committee. Its powers
are so curtailed that a hearing such

conduct such an inquiry. Is impossible.
The committee, although well supplied
with counsel has no means at dis-
of obtaining direct evidence.
It can send out detectives, agents or
