I am going away and all accounts not adjusted by August 20 will be placed with an agency for collection. GEORGE S. FULLER YOU are alive and hustling for your wife and children TODAY, but TOMORROW THEY may le doing the hustling, if yon discard our offer, which is this: If YOU will make a moderate annual deposit with us WE wlU guarantee your wife, after your death a FIXED, ANNUAL INCOME, FOR LIFE payable If desired In monthly installments. SSSHKKHNVltSS and the jobbing houses. It likewise agreed on all hands that no speculative "boom" Is ap proaching.

There Is still sucient conservatism among buyers to discourage undue expansion and excess ive optimism. In other words, the return to prosperity Is "sane and safe," as it should be. The railroads anticipating as they do a car shortage early In the fall and one local car shortage has already been reported, the first In two years are allowed time to take proper measures against it, to put their rolling stock in order, as it were, to issue instructions against bad practices of Certain shippers that contribute to unequal distribution ot transportation facilities. Prosperity, if it is to be widely enjoyed requires foresight and preparation, not only on the part of producers and carriers but on the part of banks and middlemen. Gradual commercial expansion is healthy for all legimate interests, while mushroom growth begets reckless speculations, overcapitalization of future profits, haste and overconfldence in the starting of new ventures.

Reasonable caution now, when so much ground has already been regained, Is infinitely better than the preaching of conservatism when danger signals have to be hoisted by sound financiers. A friend of Harriman denies that the ralrway magnate is ill, and explains that he suffers only from rheumatism and ptomaine poisoning. People who have had rheumatism and been ptomaine poisoned will at once agree that it Is ridiulous to consider such things afflictions. The city authorities of Jaurez, Mex-Ico, have voted to appropriate for the purpose of entertaining Presidents Taft and Diaz at a bull fight when they meet in that city, Oct. 16.

We assume that Jaurez has no golf course and that $20,000 would not provide one there. BETTER PAPER NEEDED. WASHINGTON, Aug. 24. Alarm ed regarding the permanency of their state papers and other valuable docu ments leading governments of the world, headed by the United States, are seeking paper of as nearly an indestructible character as can be made.

This announcement was made in a statement issued today by the depart ment of agriculture prepared by F. P. Vietch chief of the leather and paper labratory bureau of chemistry. Already several governments have In troduced stringent requirements with regard to which paper must comply. The need in this country for durable paper is a real one, Mr.

Veitch de clares, In order to preserve Important state papers, correspondence, deeds, bonds, certificates, ledgers, court records and certain printed documents. It is declared the quality of the paper is not the only problem that should give concern. So rapidly are records of all kinds increasing that their proper storage and safe keping is a ser ious problem. Papers should be not only durable, but light and thin, so that the burden of their proper hand ling and storage may be reduced as far as possible. There need be no fear, Mr.

Veitch states, that the demand for better pa per cannot be met. The American paper maker, he added can, and frequently does, produce paper which Is beyond criticism, and when the public insists on better paper, and will receive no other, it will be produced.

I have struggled with Fate and been conquered, I have wrestled with Fortune and won; And this is prize of the conflict, Your love is my own. When conquered, still have endeavor, ed To arise and to wrestle once more, And complaind not to any how Fortune Had smitten me sore. But 'tis harder, dear Love, when my fortune Turns kindly upon me again, To show a calm face, and from vulgar Loud triumph refrain. For I know, dear, since you are beside me, However my fortune may run, I have struggled with Fate, and havs conquered, I have wrestled and won. Pall Mall Gazette.

WHERE HONORS ARE DUE. Now that the carnival Is well over, now that the tents have moved and the amusement makers have taken themselves to new fields, people are able to look at the matter in an unbiased and unprejudiced way and to decide just what the carnival accomplished and what may be fairly said of it and of the management. It Is a notable fact and one that has been several times commented upon of late that the town was especially orderly during this week of merry-making. There were hundreds strangers in the city; there were bo many amusements that practically all of our citizens were in evidence most of the time; and added to this was the tendency towards what is popularly known as a "high old time," when some crowds go out for a lark. And yet the policemen found but little to do that week.

The crowd was sober and well behaved and the hilarity "nd gay times on the street were In general very harmless and Inoffensive. Those who believe that Deadwood is a very wicked city, fit to be ranked with only Sodom and Gomorrah, should look over the history of the place during and decide how other towns of the Bame size with so large an influx of visitors and under the same conditions could have maintained so orderly an attitude. The business men of the city, apart from the restaurants, the hotels and the saloons, report excellent business for those days. They say that the-crowd here was liberal with its money and that an unusual amount of shopping was done that week. -One Main street merchant said that he did a regular Christmas trade that week, and another said that he and his clerks had more than they could manage.

It might be mentioned also that both of these men are advertisers. Much credit is due to the carnl val committee of the Business Men's club, who had direct charge of the affair, for the business like way In which matters were conducted, for the order which prevailed and for the general satisfaction which the public felt. The Deadwood Business Men's club is one of the Hvest organizations in the west, and is doing much to put this city in the front rank where she deserves to be. PREPARING FOR PROSPEROUS TIMES, The trade organs, the railroads, the great manufacturing corporations agree in reporting or confirming business revival aU along the line.
