Down in Marion , Mass. , Richard

his new job of keeping the streets of
that town clean. Three boys with a
new push cart and a prod apiece , mads

have started In to make a record as
the working force of the new depart

Mrs. Webb Dexter offered to share th
cost of the cleaning , and at an im

the members elected Mr. Davis to take
charge and carry out his own ideas.
He hired the boys and will pay them
$8 apiece for one month. The next
month Mrs. Dexter will settle with
them.

Blaster Your Mood * .
Conquer your moods.
Don't let your moods conquer you.
People who give way to moods never
amount to much because they are
never masters of themselves.
They never know in the morning
whether they are going to do a good
day's work or not. whether they are
going to be a cheering or a depressing
influence on the people around them.
If they feel like being good tem
pered they will be.
If they feel like "snapping" at every
thing they will snap.
People who suffer from moods should
be careful about their habits.
They should be regular about meals ,
sleep , exercise and work.
The condition of the health has much
to do with moods , and there is noth
ing that contribute ? so much to health
as absolute regularity.

Before Final Adjourment J. W. Van
Cleave Is Put at Head of Per

The national tariff commission con-
rention came to an end in Indianapo
lis Thursday and its officials and del-
egi t * , before their departure , ox-
pifjsecl confidence that its work wouM
soon be perpetuated in the form oi a
permanent tariff commission , toward
the attainment of which their labors
have been directed.
Tlie convention was small in num
bers , but large in enthusiasm. Its del
egates represented great commercial ,
agricultural and civic bodies and many
were United States Senators , Congress
men or national and state officials.
James W. Van Cleave , chosen as its
permanent chairman , had behind him
scores of members of the National As
sociation of Manufacturers , and from
the platform on the last day Thatl
Snow , who declared himself "just a
plain , unattached fanner of Indiana , "
joined with his predecessors in what
had been a remarkable unanimity of
expression from various sections , pro
fessions and occupations for the estab-
lisbment by Congress of a permanent
scientific and non-partisan tariff com
mission.
During the session hundreds of mes
sages of congratulation and encour
agement were received. The messages
bore the names of many great manu
facturing firms and business houses.
None came from Andrew Carnegie , although -
though the Pittsburg ironmaster had
previously expressed his approval of
the purposes of the convention.
Before the final stroke of Chairman
Van Cleave's gavel each delegate
pledged himself to continue in his
home territory the work for which the
convention Avas called.
The permanent committee of TOO , of
which .T. W. Van Cleave is chairman ,
will give the widest possible distribu-
tion to the records of the convention
proceedings and carry on the work of
agitating for the creation of a permanc
ent tariff commission. The chairmen
of the permanent committees of the
convention selected by Chairman Van
Cleave are II. E. Miles of Uaeine. Wis. .
of the Executive Committee , and John
Herbert , Jr. . of Dayton. Ohio , of the

"Equally important with the im
provement of steamship facilities , the
establishment of banks backed by
United States capital and the thor
ough , legitimate exploitation of the
markets of South America by respon
sible agents of Ameriman manufactur
ers , " said Mr. Barrett , "is the need of
framing our tariff with some reference
to ' the interests of our sister republics. 5
"In other words , if the United States P
expects these twenty growing , re Pbi Pd
sourceful and ambitious countries to bi
purchase our manufactured products
in ] greater volume we must in turn give
them an opportunity to sell within our
limits their natural products in. larger
quantities. "
He said that the undeniable import
ance of the Latin American field of trT
trade was proved by the fact that in T
the year 1QOS these twenty countries
conducted with the
outside world a
commerce valued at 92,000,000,000 , an ir
increase of $ 1.000,000.000 in ten years , ce
or an average of $100,000,000 per an ceBi
num.
"The share of the United States in
this total , " he declared , "does not ex th :
