Salmon is salmon to most persons, but there are many kinds of salmon to those who know a "hawk from a handsaw" and a salmon from a salmon. The bureau of fisheries, In a report on Pacific salmon fisheries, lists Jie following Pacific species of the renowned fish. Chinook, qulnnat or King salmon; humpback or pink sal-uon; dog or chum salmon; sockeyed olue-back or reH salmon; silver or who salmon, and steel-head trout. All these salmon, with the exception of the steel-head, are included In the genus "oncorhynchus," and that tough-looking word Is made up of the Ureek word "oukes," meaning a barb or a hook, and another Greek word 'rynchus.*' meaning a snout, so that genus of fish is distinguished by a "hook snout." The steel-head trout, classed as a salmon, belongs to a closely related genus called "salmo," which is a word probably derived from the Celtic and the significance of which is disputed.

Bobbed-Haired Blonde Girl Gets Tired and Decides to Go Back
to Dixie.
"Yes," said the serious bobbed-haired blonde, "I've at last nyide the decision, so with trunk packed and some regrets I'm going hack to Dixie. When I came up to New York I came straight from college, full of pep, enthusiasm, modern In every way, I thought, nnd confident that a great place was wait-fug for me—maybe star for Belasco. I'd always been told I was a born actress.
"So I arrived in the big town, and you know my rugged .road, trying to do something, to be independent, and loving It all—hull bedrooms, uninteresting work mid what not. But I have come to my senses. I know I shall miss New York, Its theaters, bright lights and Fifth avenue. But I see the little southern country town, with Its friendly gossip, its 'socials' and sewing partle/i, its simplicity, and I find I love it best.
"What, how did you guess? Well, I have known him for ages, and always declared I wouldn't, but three years of New York and never meeting the men I wanted to know, for New York is a manless place for most girls, made me ready to go back. Yes, lnte fall perhaps, and you must come down. I'M see that you meet the catch of the town."—New York Sun.
STOOD BY HIS CONVICTIONS
Seventeenth Century Englishman Refused to Change Them at the
Behest of Tyrants.
Recently a book of William Prynne's brought a high price In London. I'rynne was a Puritan writer of the Seventeenth century whom torture could not Intimidate. He wrote a book, "Histrlo-Mastlx, the Players* Scourge," In which he attacked play-acting, particularly by women. Unfortunately for Pryjine, Queen Henriettu Marin had just taken part In a play and he was accused of denouncing her. His ears were cut off, his book burned by the hangman, and he was sentenced to life Imprisonment in the Tower of London.
While In prison Prynne wrote two pamphlets against the English bishops, and for this the stumps of his ears, which had been left on the previous occasion, were cut off, his cheeks branded and a fine of $25,000 assessed. He was later released from prison by warrant of the house of commons, served two years more as the result of a controversy, and was appointed keeper of the Tower records by Charles II, which post he held until his death In 1669.

religious intercession is to be made in behalf of success for the conference oo limitation of armaments and on Far East problems, in virtually every Washington church and perhaps in the churches throughout the United States, special prayers wiil be offered for the guidance of the conferees in the right paths, on the Sunday, preceding the meeting of the conference on Armistice day.
The plans for a "conference Sunday** are being made by representatives of all the churches in the Capitol City. Protestant bodies, Catholic bodies and Jewish bodies will Join in prayer for n common cause. It la possible that the President baa written a special message to the country, asking for a special religious observance of the time.
Brooklyn is, or was at any rate, called "The City of Churches." It seems as if properly the name also might be applied to the city of Washington. There are churches here of virtually every known creed, and nearly every congregation is thriving in number* of parishioners and in Interest in the services. Sunday is quite well observed in the City of Washington. It is perfectly true that here, as well as elsewhere, part of the day is given over to outdoor recreation, but Washington shows on Sunday mornings that it is a church-going community. The Presidents of the United States always have set an example of regular church attendance.
Episcopalians Building Cathedral. There are some particularly interest
ing churches in Washington. The
has been In Washington collecting material which bears on the life of Theodore Roosevelt. Already. Mr. Hagednrn has secured a considerable amount of valuable memorabilia. \
It is the intention of the association to give a public exhibition of Roosevelt material in January in the public library In New York city. A permanent Roosevelt museum will be established to hold the association treasures.
There is in Washington a great store of Rooseveftlana. Nearly every public man who was in office during Roosevelt's administration has letters written by the colonel, and many of these letters, it Is understood, will be given Into'the keeping of the Memorial association.
Recently I saw some of the most valuable of the Roosevelt manuscripts. They are the property of Rudolph Forster, executive clerk at the White House, who served in virtually the same capacity all through the Roosevelt administrations. It is not probable that Mr. Forster will part with these manuscripts, although they may be shown at the public exhibition In New York. I do not see how Mr. Forster can give them away, even to a memorial association, for in a real sense they are dedicated to him by the written word of Theodore Roosevelt '
First Drafts of Famous Addresses. These manuscripts which Mr. Fors
ter owns are the first drafts of the Roosevelt addresses in Berlin, in Paris and in Oxford, addresses made when he was on his return from the hunting trip In Africa.
At the top of the first page of each of the manuscripts, In a broad, black-inked hand, appears Rudolph Fors-ter's name, and following it the colonel wrote to the effect that the addresses by right belong "to you." Mr. Forster took the addresses at dictation and later took them to the colonel for revision. The revised first drafts are those which he has in his possession. They are underlined, crossed, re-crossed and sub-noted, with alterations, additions and amendments, some of them written with a blunt lead pencil and some of them in ink with a broad stub pen. Each one bears the signature, "Theodore Roosevelt."
It was Rudolph Forster who took at dictatibn most of Theodore Roosevelt's more intimate personal correspondence. His store of material is a Roosevelt treasury.
If a personal note is to be allowed, I will sav that I have a Roosevelt

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never
Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from druggiiti who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions.. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease;
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham-ton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper. Advert isement

on a height well within the District of Columbia and overlooking the entire valley of the Potomac. The cathedral was planned by the late Bishop Satterlee, whose body now lies in a crypt under the finished part of the great building which he planned.
The Roman Catholics have an interesting and beautiful church on Rhode Island avenue of the eastern style of architecture. This has been called the lnrernatlonl church, for here, every Sunday, worship most of the foreign ambassadors, ministers, secretaries and attaches who are of the Roman Catholic faith. It was of this church that the late Chief Justice Edward Douglass White was n member. .
The Unitarians are constructing what In effect Is a national church; that Is, the building is nationally representative of their denomination. The present chief justice of the United States Supreme court, William H. Taft, Is a member of this congregation. This Unitarian church is called All Souls. Its edifice for the greater part of a century stood at Fourteenth and L streets, but*recently new 'ground was purchased on the hilltop of Sixteenth street, and it is to be used as the site of the new church, the old building having been torn down.
The Church of All Souls has a bell which has been tolled on every occasion of' national Importance for much more than a century. This bell was cast by Paul Revere in his foundry at Boston not very many years after a* spread "the alarm through every
^ ltlddlesex village and farm." Unlvorsalists Also to Rebuild.
The UnJ versa lists have a church at Thirteenth and L streets. At present they have no settled pastor, for their last minister died recently while a comparativ.ely young man. For some years Dr. John C. Van Schalck was the pastor of the Universalist congregation. At the time of the entry of the United States into the war he re-
' signed his pastorate to enter the service of the Red Cross, With Krnest P. Bicknell he worked in France and
^Belgium for two years, having for a part of the time the interests
the needy Belgian people under charge.
The UnlversaHsta, like the Unitar-lt Is said* intend to erect a new
building In Washington and to make It nationally representative of their faith. This seems to be the aim of many of •the Christian denominations of the country.
The Methodists have many churches in Washington and in several of them Presidents of the United States have
'worshiped. The Methodists also have wtabUahed a great educational institution here called the American university. It is still In the building stage, ft occupies a commanding site to the northWjBjrt part of the city.
The Presbyterians are strongly represented to the city ot Washington.
, It was on Presbyterian Initiative that '•''the plan for a religious observance of • Jthe opening day of the conference was ^adopted.
Exhibition of Rooseveltiana. ' Bennans Bagedoro, director of the Jasjreau of research and Information 4«f the Roosevelt Memorial association,
"""entitled: "Roosevelt on ntnTTSafurT Fakers," which I wrote and which appeared In "Everybody's Magazine" some fifteen years ago.
The "Nature Faker's" Story. I spent three hours one evening In
the upstairs study in the White House with President Roosevelt while he talked to me about the iniquity of teaching school children a false natural history. He talked of some of the writers of the day who said that their writings were truths, and he laid bare their falsehoods.
I took no notes but wrote the Interview from memory the next day, and I wrote a short Introduction. Then I took the manuscript to the White House for the President to read. He made few or no corrections in it, but taking a blunt lead pencil .he-added enough material to increase the length of the article, about one quarter.
I have this original draft of the manuscript and it is a fearful an? -wonderful looking affair. It is inter lined on nearly every one of its fif teen or sixteen pages. On the top 01 one page the President, from some whim or other, wrote his name wltl the blunt lead pencil of correction. At the end of the article he wrote: "Corrected and approved by Theo dore Roosevelt."
I have in my possession a long letter from Theodore , Roosevelt which I shall not give to the exhibitors nor yet present to the Memorial associ ation, for the time for the appearance of such letters is not yet. It was written to me, not in zesponw to any letter of mine, but apparently simply to give Colonel Roosevelt ar opportunity to say to a friend what he thought about certain conditions, notably that of unpreparedness, during the days when it was said that we, as a people, were "too proud to fight."
Explaining Rusting of Iron. A new theory explaining the rust*
ing of Iron was advanced by J. Newton Friend of Birmingham, England, at the meeting of the American Electro-Chemical society.
What happens when iron rusts is a metallurgical mystery. Friend believes the corrosion starts "by the formation of colloidal ferrous hydroxide, which latter is alternately reduced by contact with iron and ox* idlxed by contact with aAr, thus co» tinning the corrosion and the produo tion of rust."
He also has found by experiment that although a piece of Iron rusts badly when In water moving about a half a mile an hour, that when the velocity Is 2½ miles an hour or more, there Is practically no rusting at all*

"Yes, Fve More Time For Myself
Since I Got a Fordson"
The Foidson Tractor is taking much of the drudgery out of farm life; it is solving the labor problem; it it reducing the cost of preparing land by almost one half of what it was with horses^ and it is saving one third to one half of the farmer's time; and making farm life more attractive.
The Fordson will run your threshing machine—and at the most opportune time for you. It will operate the milking machines, saw your wood, nil your silo, pump the water, and take care of every kind of belt work
And don't forget—it will plow six to eight acres in a ten hour day, handling two plows with ease. Thus the Fordson is the ideal year-round tractor. It will pay for its fall and winter keep in many ways.
There's a big story to tell you about the Fordson—and a true one—come in and get the facts. Or, if you prefer, telephone or drop us a card and we will bring them to you.

SUDDEN DEATH TAKES PENNSYLVANIA SENATOR
Washington—Sweeping denial of charges that the Ku Klux Klan contained within its ranks a lawless band of hooded hoodlums was made before a bouse committee by William J. Simmons, of Atlanta, Ga., its founder and imperial wizard.
Turning squarely upon members who had listened intently for nearly two hours to a dramatic defense of the organization, Simmons declared that, "standing here in the presence of God," he wanted the world to know that if one-thousandth part of the charges were true he would call together the grand councilium of the klan for the purpose of forever disbanding it ,in every section of the United States.
Collapses Under Strain. Closing his all-day defense, Sim
mons toppled over while the chairman of the investigating house committee was attempting to stop the applause which broke before the wizard collapsed. Friends rushed to his side and supplied stimulants and it was made known that his condition was not serious but it was necessary to adjourn the hearing.
A solemn stillness prevailed at times while the wizard, holding aloft the ritual of the Klan, read parts of the oath taken by Klansmen. And then in husky tones he told the committee that while Julius Caesar had his Brutus and Washington his Benedict Arnold, he too could enter that fellowship because he had suffered from treasonable conduct from those within.
Turning to the crowd, Simmons declared lie wanted to "call upon the Father to forgive those who had persecuted the Klan," and as the words left his lips, he tumbled into a heap.

he explained. " Twaa a promise 1 give the kid, she could see you alone first Just sit here, 'til I come back. You don't want to see Pendlehaven, eh?"
Edith shuddered and shrank back. , "No, I don't" she whispered, "1 Just want to talk to the baby a xntn-ote. I want her to forgive me before we go away. We been cussed mean to that kid, Uriah."
Devon made a grunting assent left Edith sitting behind the rose bush and slipped up the steps of the bouse.
A little while before, Reggie Brown, well filled up on brandy, had descended to the library to wait for Devon. If he hadn't had this thing on, and the importance of it hadn't weighed on him all the long day, he'd have gone to bed, his head ached so, but his desire to capture Tony Devon kept the fumes of alcohol from completely be-fuddling his brains. Inside the library. he stood swaying near the door, tapping his pocket from time to time to make sure he was armed. Then he stumbled across, the room, threw himself on the divan and in another moment bad forgotten in a drunken sleep that there was any such person In the world as Tonnibel Devon.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Curtis waa walking the floor upstairs, half mad with anxiety, and Katherine, in a state of nerves, was smoking one cigarette after another.
"God! When she's gone",M broke forth the girl, "I'll know what happiness means!"
"So will I," echoed Mrs. Curtis.
"What?" she demanded, "la Philip—-
MNow, don't get nervous, my dear," came In quivering interruption. "But —but you were not correctly informed about your mother. She's—site's downstairs."
A violent emotion overtook the girl. She knew then she had never really believed what Uriah told her.
MMy mother!" she breathed, her eyes deepening In color. "My dear little mother! Oh, let me go to her!"
"She's in the library. This is a happy day for you, my dear—for—all of us. You'd better dress, hadn't yon ?"
Tonnibel- hadn't even heard the last words. She fled down the stairs and into the library, pantlrig for breath. Her cup of happiness was full to the brim, now that Edith hid come back to her. She halted, closed the 1oor and ran Into the room.
"Edie, mummy dear!" she called softly, so overcome she could not, raise her voice.
Then Uriah Devon stepped from behind the grate-screen and came toward her.
"Daddy," 0ried the girl, "where's mummy? Where's my mother?"
Uriah dropped the bag and laid the revolver on a chair. He had never seen such a vision of loveliness. The masses of dark curls flung over the flimsy dressing-gown, the small, bare ankles peeping from the soft blue slippers sent an unholv desire for possession over him. What a fool he had been to promise her to a fellow like Reginald Brown!
"Tony," he faltered hoarsely. T v e been a dog to you all these years. I've come to tell you I love you, kid.
Idly speechless, the revolver hanging from her Angers.
"Mummy," cried the girl. "Oh, God! You've killed him, Edie darling!"
Still the woman didn't Bay a word. She only gazed at the speaker tin-seelngly. Tony snatched the gun from her hand.
"Edle," she groaned. "Mummy, sweet, go right away, before any one comes. You've killed Uriah. Go away, go away, I say."
She grasped Mrs. Devon's arm and hurried her toward the porch door.
"Run," hissed the girl, "Get back to the boat quick. Don't ever say a word to any one." Then Tony spied the little black bag she'd seen so often on the Dirty Mary. Picking It up she thrust it Into her mother's hands. "Here! Take this, too. Oh, mummy; kiss me, kiss me!"
She flung herself upon the woman frantically, kissed the pallid, impassive face again and again and then shoved Edith out upon the dark porch. It was while Tony's whole attention, was centered on her beloved that Reginald Brown seized the opportunity to sneak stealthily from the room.
The nervous women tn the upper part of the house had not expected to hear the piercing scream that came to their ea'rs, and, as It was repeated more than once with such terrible insistence, Mrs. Curtis, followed by Katherine. fled down th« stairs.
Tony heard them coming, and a surging love for her mother brought a resolution full-born from the loyal young heart. She was standing over the prostrate Uriah when Sarah Curtis and her daughter rushed madly in.
"I shot my father," gasped Tonnibel, looking at Mrs. Curtis, her fingers locked tightly over the handle of the revolver.
"Where's your mother?" came from Mrs. Curtis' lips.
Tonnibel didn't answer for a minute, then she shook her head. -
"She hasn't been here!" she swallowed hard and continued: " 'Twaa my father, and—and I shot htm."
Katherine took a long breath of excitement.
"Don't you know you'll he arrested, you wicked girl?" she ejaculated.
"And executed!" Interposed Mrs. Curtis. "Katherine, call the police.**
As Katherine made for the tele* ohone, a motor car driving up to the house stnyed her action. Her hand
For a moment everything was con* fusion. Doctor Johr, forced Mrs. Curtis into a chair when she tried te fling herself Into his arms. With every one but Tony talking at once, neither he nor his brother could understand the meaning of the seemingly dead man on the floor.

"Tony shot him, if you want to know," Mrs. Curtis dared to fling out
Doctor Paul gave her such an awful look that she quailed beneath it.
"He's not dead," he said after a hasty examination of Uriah, and one dry, tearless sob burst from Tony Devon,

appoint us." "Don't fear about that," sneered
Katherine. "He's even more anxious than we are. So's Reggie, but I don't envy you telling Tony her mother's alive.'*
"1 think you might do It." complained Mrs. Curtis with a sniffle. "All the anxiety and worry of this thing has fallen on me."
"That's because you're so clever, ray sweet," retorted Katherine, sarcastically. "Oh, go on down and don't act as If you were afraid of your own' shadow. Say, Rege was drunk as anything at dinner."
"Disgustingly so," sighed the mother as she went out. "I hope to the high heavens he'll straighten up some day."
First Mrs. Curtis stole down to the library. There she found Uriah Devon, standing with his hat In his hand, and, as he saw her, he made a-grinning bow.
"Where's Rege?" he asked eagerly. "Upstairs, I think," replied Mrs.,
Curtis In a low voice. ''He's had too much to drink. Did you bring yonr wife?"
"Yep; she's outside," was the man's answer. "And the kid? Does she know Ede's still In the land of the Uvln'?"
"No, but Til tell her now," returned Mrs. Curtis desperately. "Here's the five thousand dollars." She thrust a roll of bank notes Into his hand. "I'll send Tony right down," ended the woman and she went swiftly out
Uriah glanced about the room In anticipation. He intended not only to take Tony w»th bin, but everything else of value he could lay his hands on. Edith had often described the valuables kept in a wall-safe in this -very room. Mrs. Curtis had no more than closed the door before, revolver in hand, he began his search. An exclamation of delight almost escaped his lips when he discovered the safe-door was unlocked. He grinned at the carelessness of the rich as he flung into the black bag the boxes of Jewelry, completely stripping the safe of Its contents. He dtdn't take time to look over his haul!
All through the day Tonnibel Devon had told her Joy over and over to her-•elf. Now, almoit ready to retire, she was sitting reading the Bible. It teemed most appropriate that oa this night she should ting with the Poet the Psalms of Thanksgiving.
A knock at the door caused her to dose the book and put it on the table before she called: "Come in."
At the sight of Mrs. Curtis she rote to her feet startled.
•Tve good news for you. child," choked the woman, tnd Tony went f>»rf-nrrt f>neerly.
^^g^^Sf^gistfp^gs^iafaai^^Ep TonnlbeT doffgeff tSTft tirastrBicneir arms and flames of anger leapt into her eyes at his words.
"But ray mother." she exclaimed, trying not to cry out.
"Never mind her, Tony, never mind any one," commanded Uriah. "The fact is. I ain't your daddy at all. I'm not any relation to you—"
Then he snatched at her and, as she tried to flee from him, caught her in his arms. One long cry left her lips and Edith Devon heard It plainly out there under the rose bush. How many times she had fled to an appeal like that from the same lips! In another moment she was in the room before Uriah's red mouth had touched Tony's face. The girl saw her and screamed:
"Mummy! Mummy darling! Moth-er dearest! Take me away—"
The words were strangled In her throat, for Devon was forcing her head backward with his strong fingers.
Edith's eyes caught sight of the revolver where her husband had placed It. In a twinkling she had it in her hands. Lifting it she ran toward the struggling pair.
"Take your hands offen Tonnibel, Uriah," she hissed. "You dirty, lying dog. You fooled me good, you whelp! Drop 'er, I say, Uriah Devon."
At the other end of the room a tall boy arose out of the shadows; Tony's screams had aroused Reginald'Brown. He stood swaying, rubbing his head, trying to remember where he was.
Tin done with you, Ede," he heard Devon utter. "I'm done with you forever. Tony's mine. Tve Just told 'er I wasn't her daddy. I was a fool to say Reggie Brown could have 'er. He can't; I'll have 'er myself."
"Put 'er down," gritted Edith un-der her breath.
Almost lifeless, Tony was hanging from Uriah's arm when suddenly through the room a pistol shot sounded.
The moment his gun barked, Reginald, now sober, saw Uriah Devon throw up his arms and crumple in a heap on the floor,. He saw, too, the girl stagger forward and sink down. He had committed murder, perhaps, and, for an awful moment, he imagined he was going mad. A scream rose to his lips as a pain shot through his head, but he bit savagely on his tongue and held it back. If he waa discovered he would be arrested, and If Devon died— He dared picture the future no further. Shuddering, he slunk back, crouched at the head of the divan and remained absolutely quiet
Tony struggled to her feet stared in wild amazement at her father, 'then at tier mother, who waa standing rt*>
Salesman Would Walt but He Had No Idea of Losing 8lgnt of a
Poaaibility.
Some years ago I went into a store to Inquire the price of something, an expensive thing this was, that 1 wanted to buy some day when I had the price, says a writer in the New York Herald. They were Just as nice to me as they would have been if I had come in ready to buy and plank down the cash.
Then for the time being I forgot all about it, but they didn't About a year after my visit to the store the salesman I had seen there came in to see <ne. He wns a very agreeable gentleman and In no way Insistent; he had Just looked in on the chance that now I was ready to buy; but my bank account hadn't looked up to any great extent and I was not ready, aa 1 told him; but I added that when I was ready I would come In. and I would come to him.
That, I thought, ended It as far at hearing from them was concerned; but not so. A year later I had another call from the salesman, my friend, If he will now permit me so to call him, on the same errand; a pleasant call and a pleasant little talk, but with the same result as before; and now, a year to a dny%after that second call, he has been In 'to see me again. We had our usual pleasant little talk, and then I asked him:
'Don't you ever give up a prospect?"

dropped fromjthe receiver when Philip MacCauley came In. For a moment he didn't see Devon. With a quick, flashing glance, he noticed how pallid and deathlike his Tony was.
"What have you two been saying to her?" he demanded In deadening tones. "I suspected something like this,.and—and got away as soon as I could. . . . Darling girl, don't look at me like that." J
Mrs. Curtis was fully herself now. "The wicked girl has shot her own father," she told Captain MacCauley, making an effort to keep the satisfaction out of her voice. "There he is, dead on the floor!"
Then Philip saw Devon. In horrified amazement and disbelief his gaze came back to Tonnibel.
"Darling," he said, and he went swiftly to her. "I don't believe a word of it. It's all t He!"
Tbny flung out her hand. "Don't touch me, please don't!" she
mumbled. "I told her' I did it, and I—I—I—did."
She backed away from the outstretched arms.
"But yon couldn't have," groaned the boy. "What happened?. Oh, God! Won't someone tell me what happened?"
"Mother,has told yon quite plainly, Philip," gulped Katherine, noticing with a thrill that Captain MacCauley had not covered the few steps Tony had retreated. "Sfhe said she killed her father, and no girl admits such a thing as that unless If s true. Heavens, there's Cousin John and—"
"Cousin PatM," fell from Mrs. Curtis, who looked at if the had turned to ' stone.
Not another word was uttered by that silent group of people until after the two doctors entered the library.
How Burmese Women 8mok«. Merchants smoke their pipes from
dawn until dark, in Korea, writes a correspondent They squat down when they smoke, and as the stems of the pipes are 3 feet long, the bowl can rest on the ground. In Bethlehem the hookah Is very popular among the women and it accompanies the morning and afternoon coffee-drinking hour. Several tubes extend from the water bowl through which the smoke passes in a cooling process, and the women gather about the hookah, each selecting n tube, and all drawing smoke from the common bowl. The Burmese muldens smoke a cigar 10 inches long and as fat as a good-sized candle and with a white paper covering. The longest pipes known are those used by natives of the Belgian Congo. These pipes have stems 10 or 12 feet long, with small bowls. If matches were used to light them a friend would be needed to apply the flame, but the native gets his light by merely thrusting the bowl into his camp fire.
Pets of Prisoners. Visitors to prison have noticed that
prisoners, like other folk, are^fond of pets and that their pet is generally a canary or other species of bird., There is a reason for this: A bird takes np little room and requires little food, whereas larger animals could not very easily be kept In confinement. Most prisons have rules forbidding Inmates to keep pets, but visitors to several of the smaller prisons have sometimes observed mire as well as birds and an occasional dog sharing cells with prisoners. In one of the. large state pri*» ons a long-term prisoner was permitted to have as pets several dogs of the toy variety,—New York Times.

"No, my lord," replied the parson, "but she lectures."

Wonderland of North Queensland
The tropical Wonderland of North Queensland, ons of the most exquisite scenic resorts In the world, has been generally regarded as a glorious hothouse. How far this is from the truth Is now emphasized by Senator Pearce, the minister of defense. He has visited the rich-soiled high Atherton tableland and 'finds Its temperate climate equal to that of the far south
ern state of Tasmania. The ubieland Is capable of close settlement by white citizens, and affords magnificent opportunities, In common with other portions of North Queensland, for the development of a garrison of the white race sufficient to hold • Australia for all time. Probably the new enthusiasm which characterizes the minister for defense will make the federal gov
ernment take a kinder view of Queensland's request for a development loan of £2,000,000.
Safeguard From Influenza. During an epidemic of cerebro
spinal meningitis in Uganda, Dr, J. A. Taylor found that a drop or two of
.iodine on the tongue was useful in preventing persons from catching It This led him to try It for the sams purpose in an epidemic of influenza. The result was that among Europeans, all of whom took the Iodine, there was
not a single case, although many of them were In daily contact with persons suffering from the disease. Dr. Tajrlor mixes tincture of iodine (B. P.) and honey in equal parts and places two or three drops of this on the tongue every three hours. Of course he isolates patients at well.

BRIGHTON COUNCIL IN A QUANDRY
The village council at the hist regular meeting lust Thursday night could not decide whether or not to allow Brighton's fire-fighting outfit to leave the corporation to help put out the fires of their neighbors. The vote was a tic and the president withholds jiis vote tor a month.
It moves one to wonder a little concerning the town's reason for existence and whether it does not owe the farmers' in the neighborhood something
Firstly, what is the reason for the existence of any fawn? Some kind of industry.
Then, what is the industry which ntakes Hrighhm possible?
There is no industry in the town which <does not depend upon the farmers. Attempts to create other in-0
dustries independent of them have failed, thus far.
Stores exist to help supply the townspeople and farmers. . But hack of it all is the farmer, who is the only real producer in the neighborhood, and who was the pioneer in the neighborhood.
And, vol, is the village, whose life depends upon these fanners, "refusing to loan them its means of protection uyuinst lire and let the farmer be ruined? I

KOWLERVILLE—Soon after the n<»on hour on Wednesday the large barn of S. I>. Feagles was discovered to be on tire and the lire whistle sounded an alarm that brought hundreds of people to the burning building.
The burn was formerly utfed as a feed barn and was located just south of the Pere Marquette tracks, and was totally consumed, together with the scale house of the Co-ops which stood in close proximity.
Mr. Feagle had about L0 tons of waste paper baled and stored in the barn and was just making a shipment having removed about half the contents, which was consumed with u number—trf chickens.
The grain elevator of K. W. Uurk-hurt and son had a pretty close call, the wind being in that direction, setting the elevator on tire four different times and it* safety is alone due to the fine water system and those who manned the hose.
The loss falls pretty heavy on Mr. Feagles, the insurance carried" being only #200.—tii-dew.
