Tha Blndle Stiff. The blndle stiff Is a bum found In southern and central California mostly. You can see them any day, rain or shine, either In the Jungles or walking along the railroad tracks, lie Is either carrying his bed roll or blndle or Is followed by a young boy whom he calls his punk and who carries It for hint. Most blndle stiffs are too lazy to carry It themselves. The blndle consists of a piece of canvas, two blankets or quilts, a tew pieces of clothing, soap and towel, shaving and sewing gear and cooking utensils. It Is tied lip and slung over the shoulder. The pack stilt Is somewhat like the blndle stiff and you find him mostly in and around Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana ; almost anywhere in the Pacific Northwest lie almost always carries bis own pack. Lumberjacks carry a pack looking for work, but they are not to be classed as tramps like the pack stiffs. The mission stiff Is seen mostly In Ihe big cities where there are lots of missions, soup lines and bread lines and they can live without work. They get up In the mission prayer meetings and tell how religion has saved them, and tell about their wicked, sinful lives before they were Saved. The wilder the story the better, because It arouses the sympathy of the worshipers therein. The mission always feeds them and gives them a place to sleep, and old clothes until they find a job. They never find It. When one mission wears out they tackle another. 1 even found several who made such X i i Rock Cork Is Used to Deaden Sound - wine. lie started fast on his first forty, but lagged a little the next ten and coasted on toward sixty.

Some might have laughed about it later but many would have said nothing the New Yorker does not like to seem a sap, and thats the way most people feel when they receive the attentions of a pickpocket But Holland, a law student In St John's law school, over In Brooklyn, Is of different stuff.

AYRES Cleveland Economist. BUSINESS recovery took place long depression of the 70s when the people of this country became convinced that this nation was going to adhere to sound money, return to the gold basis, and refuse to agree with the claims of the greenback propagandists. Again business recovery came after the long depression of the '90s when the people of the country became convinced that we were going to maintain a sound currency and to decide against the claims of the silver propagandists. If In this depression the Supreme court should decide that the abrogation of the gold clause was unconstitutional, and so force the congress to restore the old one hundred cent dollar, the verdict of our own business men and of the foreign nations might be that this country had finally decided upon a program of upholding the soundness of our money and the validity of our contracts.
