Tho rate of Interest will dopond, no doubt, upon tho military situation during thb fall. If tho- war promises to bo brought to a successful close within a year tho now Issuo may bo put out at throo and one-half poV cont. If Russia hIiowb no lmprovomont In moralo and It Is apparent that wo havo under- wrltton tho wholo Job of tho alllos, It mny bo considered doslrablo to mako tho Intorost rato four por cent. In that caso tho rato on tho llborty bonds now out would rlso automatically to tho saino lovol. No Europoan nation has beou ablo to flnunco a war for any length of tlmo for less than 5 por cont. While wo atf.rt with ro- markablo advantagos, It dooo not soom posslblo for us to contlnuo to light for many months on a three and ono-hnlf poi cont basis. Tho necessity of In croaslng tho Intorost rato on loans af fords anothod reason for wanting to ilnanco tho war so far as It can be dono oult of current tax lovles.

Night Phono Black 688 Th'e Head of The Family By RUTH GRAHAM -a It was u mouth after their man-Inge. Not a word hud been spoken to Inter rupt that current of romance down which they had been snlllng ever since they became conscious that they lood. Rut there Is always a, beginning. "My dear," he salt pettishly, "I sup pose I must go through another dny with a safety pin for n suspender but ton?" "Another day. dear! What do you mean?" If I remember aright, this Is the third time I linrc asked you to re place the button that came off n week ago." She made no reply, but went to her worhbasket, got out what was needed and sewed on the button. Roiunnco hnd given pluco to reality. From that moment she begun the du ties of a wife. Her day wns all fot her husband. When she arose In tho morning her first duty wa3 to see that he had what pleased him for break fast. She poured ids coffee with her own hand. Then when lie hud gono for the dny she superintended the household affairs, planning that every thing might be in order against his re turn. In the evening she consulted his pleasure. If he wished to go out sho went out with him. If ho preferred to stuy nt home sho stnyed at home with him. It seemed to her that there was scarcely an hour in tho day that sho was not working for him. And he? Ho went down to business In the morulng nnd worked hard nil duy for her. When his competitors got nhead of him, when wrnngllng over disputed business transactions fretted him, when ho failed to mako money or when ho met with success It was all for her. Sho needed oxpenslvo clothing, and he bought It for her. Every spring she must havo now ap parel, and the next spring, though It was not worn or faded, It was no long er in fnshlon. One senson sho must havo a hat llko nu umbrclln, and tho next It must be replaced by one no larger than a dinner plate. Her win ter coat must bo short, and tho next year It must bo long. Since the hnt could not bo developed nor tho coat lengthened, they must bo east off and now ones purchased. He wondered why garments never grew smaller, so ihnt tlumn niirplinspil thn vnnr hofnro micut i, reduced One day she reproached him. "Tho dny Is not long enough," she said, "for mo to do all I havo to do for my master. I did not know when l mnrricu you tunc l wns unnging upon myself slavery. A? a girl I could devote all my tlmo to myself. Then I was light hearted becauso I was free. I had no one's clothes to mend except my own. I had no household duties. I spent my leisure time going to thea ters, balls and such other amusements as I preferred. Ob. woo Is mo that I should have married and becomo a slave!" And ho replied: "From morning till night I am down town unking money for you to spend for gowns and hats that won't stay In fashion long enough to get the 'now' off them. I must provldo houso rent nnd sustenanco for j'ou and tho thou sand other things that you require. I never go fishing or shooting, ns I did before I was married, for now, having your necessities to supply, I havo noth- ,nK foTr Indulging in those sports fowllK pIcco wcnt lnto n fur co'at for I yQU you (lr0 scaring my uShlng tacklo on your bend. Oh, woo Is mo that I over married and becamo n Blave!" Ono day a baby camo. Tho duties of tho wlfo were changed. Tho husband returned to tho uso of safety pins in lieu of buttons. Sho "nrt no longer tlmo to mend nis nnon. m. dothlug remained torn, Tho baby needed all her attention, requiring moro changes of clothing in a day tbnn her husband needed in n week. Sho spent much tlmo preparing the child's food. IIo had colic often, during which she must dandle him. walk with him and glvo him medicines Every dny ho must havo the sun and air In bis carriage, uud his mother, un- willing to 'trust him to a nurse, trim died him herself. When sho was not trundling him sho was making or buy ing clothes for htm, and when she was not doing theso sho was receiving In structions from the doctor ns to what sho should put Into his stomach and what sho should put over It. And tho busbnnd. Ho was now glad to get downtown in tho morning to es- capo tho baby's squalls. Ho passed most of tho night wnlklng with his son back and forth when tho boy hnd colic nnd was Ural out with loss of sleep. Rut In bis otllco thero was quiet. Be sides, In his office ho was master, which ho wns not at homo. Ono morning tho husband, who hnd taken care of tho baby during tho night that his wife might get "a llttlo sleep," began the old plaint, "I am your slave." This nwnkoncd her own former words, "It Is I who nm your slave." This started the wrnnclo ncaln. Words were BOttlng high when there " . rcro g ivcwlc wns a diversion. Thero camo a sudden yell from tho crib. Both rushed to Bee whnt was wrong with tho baby. "Here Is our mnstcr," said tho fa ther, "Wo aro both bis Blaves." But It wns a now kind of slavery that hnd como upon them. Somehow they accepted It as a matter of course, but they wero In constant terror lest they loso their sovereign. SCRAP IRON $6 per Ton.
