In Minas. The possibility of economical trans. mission of electric power renders It peculiarly suitable for underground pumping. While the steam pump itself may be an extremely efficient machine, the remote location of an ordinary mine pump—namely, at the bottom of the shaft—necessitates a long steam line. In which losses are bonnd to he heavy. Electric pumping therefore has rapidly won favor, and the electric mo- tor is applied to drive both plunger and centrifugal pumps The battle be- tween t mLi hesi rts . t . w x o tig ty a pe z l s ne i . uay be said to be still reging, with the phoiger some- what in the ascendancy and the cen- trifugal expecting an ultimate victory.

The interior of a Dell tent is full of surprises for the new hand He be- gins by eirpectiug it to be the airiest of lodgings; it is 'fealty the stuffiest Unless the flaps at the entrance are left open or the apron around the foot lifted It soon becomes Insufferable if there are many men sleeping in it. and , it is possible to sleep ten or a dozen' men or more in a bell tent, with feet to the pole, of course, and heads to the canvas. Another surprise is that there Is nowhere to hang anything up. It is contrary to regulations to drive nails Into the tent pole. The official way Is a ring with hooks on it to be clamped around the pole, but old campaigners say that the supply of these is never anything like equal to the number of tents and that only the lucky ones get them With all this a bell tent is the cheapest and most comfortable of tem- porary homes for a party of three or tour once they get used to its little ways and cease to mislay things in Its featureless circularity.—Liverpool Mer- cury. A Story of Dickens. M. Anatole France has an amusing reminiscence of Dickens—of whom he Is a great admirer -1n his \Vie Litte- raise \ One wonders whether it is au- tobiographical. \A Frenchman who made the jouruey to Loudon.\ tie writes, \went one day to see the great Charles Dickens. He was admitted end expressed his admtratfon as an excuse for thus trespassing on the precious time of such a being. 'Your fame.' be added, 'and the universal sympathy you inspire doubtless expose you to in numerable Intrusions. Your door iii ways is besieged. You must be visit ed every day by princes. gtatesmen scholars, writers, artists and even fluid men ' 'Yes, madmen, madmen!' cried Dickens, carried away by the agitation which toward the end of his life often moved him. 'Madmen! They alone amuse me.' And he pushed his Baton ished visitor out by the shoulders\ His Last Look. A church in the north of Scotland requiring a pastor had a beadle who tetatt an active interest in all ttint con (Trued the church. One of the candi- dates after the last service for the day was over stepped into the vestry to put off his gown. He thought he would have a look at the church and, meet ing the worthy beadle putting things to rights, Raid: \I was just taking a look at the church.\ \Aye tak' a guid look at it,\ said the beadle, \for it's no likely ye'll ever see't again.\—Dundee Advertiser. Progress is the attainment of brains and education rather than sustained physical exertion. BAKING POWDER Those who have had cakes ruined by jarring the stove, slamming the oven door or a heavy footstep, may have wondered how the dining car chef can turn out such marvelous biscuits, hot breads and pastry when his oven is being incessantly jarred and jolted and shaken by the motion of the train. To get pastry to raise and stay raised under these con- ditions, a baking powder must be used that continues t,p give off its leavening gas—that sustains the raise—until the dough is baked through. Iting Car Chefs have found a baking powder exactly suited to their needs in K C and you will find it just as well suited to your requirements. K C is really ak blend of two baking powders, one \active as soon as moistened, the other requiring both mois- ture and heat to start thegeneration of leavening gas. No matter how moist and rich you make your cake, K C Baking Powder will sustain the raise until a crust is formed and all danger of falling Is past. K C Baking Powder is pure and healthful. It is guaranteed under all pure food laws, and is guaranteed to please you. And it is sold at a reasonable price—no baking powder should sell for more. 64 Try a can at our Halt and be convinced. ECONOMY IN WARTIME MR. GWILLKIMBY FINALLY GETS DOWN TO BEDROCK. All Luxuries and a Few of the Neces- saries Eleihg Cug Out, He Now Buys Small Boys' Watches by the Gross. \It didn't seem possible that this European war business could ever af- fect our income in any way,\ said Mr. Gwillkimby, \but it did hit us finally in a way Mot_ we had _peirer even dreamed of; and then, like so many other people, we were forced to econo- mize. \A man never can tell what' he can do till he has to, but then he can do most anything. In our household ex- penses we found many things that were really only luxuries that we could lop off without suffering, and then we went through what in flusher days we should have considered as necessaries and cut down on them, finding among even these things many that we could do without; and lastly we cut the things we had to have right down to the bone. \With all these sacrifices, changes ancl revisions we finally got our ex- penses down on paper below our re- duced income; but somehow, in actual practice it didn't work out that way. Instead of having as we now should have, even on our smaller means, a little surplus we still had every week a little sho e. a rt.Itc is t never struck me where that 1 as till one day it came to me all of a sudden that I had forgotten to figure into our expenses the cost of our son's watches! \Our boy, like most boys at the present time, carries a watch; but I loubt if any other boy on earth is as hard on watches as our boy is. He regulates his watch about seven times s day and sets it seventeen times. Shout twice a week he takes the back it'd front off his watch, looks in at the wheels and stirs them up a little and moves the hands. \Once in a while he takes the works out of a watch, but I have never yet known him to put them back. Fre- quently he drops his watch, as likely as not on the floor. In one way and another he uses up two or three watches a week, an average of a dozen a month; and whenever he broke his watch he would come to me for a new one and I would eve him the money freely. \But cheap as these watches are, we couldn't possibly do that much longer now; and the question was what should we do about it, for he had got to have a watch somehow; we would sooner go without milk on the titble than ask our boy to go without a watch in his pocket. Then I had auother blightaclell,g1,1 _which I am now acting. \I now buy our watches by the gross instead of singly, thereby making a considerable saving; enough, in fact, to bring our expenses down to just below our income; t.nd I now expect that we shall be able to hold things so until the great war is over and our in- come gets back to normal.\ Finland. Finland is a grand duchy included in the Russian empire. Women won the vote in Finland as a reward for the active part taken by Finnish wom- en in the general movement for na- tional independence when the women struggled side by side and hand to hand with the men of the country. The diet of Finland gave to women who paid taxes the vote on municipal mat- ters in 1863—that is, to those who lived in the country or the small towns and villages. In 1872 this was extend- ed to taxpaying women who lived in cities. In 1906 there was a great up- rising of the Finnish people, and the czar of Russia granted a new con- stitution to Finland; the parliamen- tary suffrage was granted to women by the first diet that assembled there- after. Many good laws have been enacted since the glanting of equal suffrage in Finland, but as all laws can be vetoed by the Russian imperial council, some of these have not be- s_Qme oDera_tive. Indeed, the rights of all the Finnish people are subject more orleaa to the general action and decree of tile empire and its govern- ment Clgarmakers Get Good Pay. The Havana cigarmakers, who formed a large proportion of the au- dience that witnessed Jack Johnson's defeat, , ,- rank among the best paid workmen in the world. They certain- ly deserve high wages, for not a trace of machinery is to be seen in their factories Without a mold or binder or any pattern to follow, a Cuban cigarmaker can turn out fifty, seventy-five or a hundred cigars a' day, absolutely identical in shape, size and weight, the only implements used being a block of maple wood and a small curved knife. While at work he insists on being amused, and his amusement takes the form of being, read to aloud. At every cigar factory % In Havana you will find a reader, en- ' gaged and paid by the men, and re- galiug his audience with the daily pa- per or a novel. Some of these readers receive as much as $60 a week, and many were elected to the first Cuban legislature. WHAT TO DO FOR YOUR ITCHING SHIN Eczema, ringworm and other itch- ing, burning skin eruptions are so easily made worse by improper treat- ment that one has to be very careful. There is one method, however, that you need not hesitate to use, even on a baby's tender skin—that is the resinol treatment. Resinol is the pre- scription of a Baltimore doctor, put up in the. form of resinol ointment and resinol soap. This proved so re- markably successful that thousands of other physicians have been pre- scribing it constantly for 20 years. Resinol stops itching instantly and almost alwaye heals the eruption quickly and at little cost. Resinol ointment and resinol soap can be bought at any druggist's, and are not at all expensive. Great for sunburn. There is no more unpleasant and unprofitable business than mixing in a family row. The only scrap which Uncle Sam has been drawn into in half a century was in endeavoring to make his neighborhood peaceful, and it still looks as though he would have to lick Mexico in order to secure livable con- ditions in our back yard. Towering structur,es of concrete, brick and stone don't make a city. It is the activities which they house that support population and augment wealth, but this is a fact that is too often overlooked in the determination of civic policies. \My word, Jacob,\ said Steinberg, \that is a beautiful diamond you have in your pin. How much did it cost\ \I paid $1,000,\ replied Jacob. \One thousand dollars!

THOUGHT SHE COULD NOT LIVE Restored to Health by Lydia Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. mo.—\ I suffered from a female trouble and I -got so weak that I could hardly walli across the floor with- out holding on to something. I had nervous spells and my fingers would cramp and my face would draw, and I could not speak, not* sleep to do any good, had no appetite, and everyone thought I would not live. Some one advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I had taken so much medicine and my doctor said he could do me no good so I toldmy husband he might get me a bottle and I would try it By the tithe I had taken it I felt better.

Quaint Old Harvard Rules. -Quaint rules and customs regulated thisS days at Harvard university in the seveuteeuth century, for in 10131 the overseers ordered that the presi- dent \from time to time _commend it to the parents and guardians of the students that commence that they pro vide not above one gallon of wine for a student, judging it to be sufficient for that occasion.\ In 1003. \the cor- poration having been informed that the custom taken up In the college fol the commencers to have plum cake is dishonorable to the college, not grate- ful to wise men and chargeable to the parents of the commencers, do there fore put an end to that custom.\ In 1727 a private commencement was de termlned uRon and was observed tot several years, but was not a success The laws of 1734 provided that \no commencers shall have at c am- bers any plum cake, plain ctlice or pies or hot meats of any kind except what is left of the dinner in the hall or tiny brandy, rum or distilled liq- uors or composition made with any ot them.\ Modern Necessities. \One of the reasons for the cost ot living,\ observes a wise clubman, \lies in the fact that people buy wholly un- necessary things. I bad a conversation with the proprietor of a novelty shop in Fifth avenue a few days ago. A shiny object had attracted my. atten- tion, and I inquired about use. use. \ 'Those,' said the ptcprietor, 'are gilded pincers to pick up letters one has placed on the letter scales.' \'And that Ivory stick, carved and forked at tile end?' \'People use UAL to fish out things they have droppeffilitito carafes.' \'That square of morocco about the size of a nut; what is that for?' \'That's a tampon—used to press down stamps after sticking them on envelopes' \'That ornamental box with a whole battery of little brushes?' \'Those are to clean other brushes: brushes to clean hairbrushes, brushes to clean toothbrushes.' \—New York Post.

W. Griffith's $500,000 N Masterpiece ATO Adapted From oL^ Things We Owe to Coal Tar. This would be a cold, dreary world, indeed, without coal tar and all that through the magic touch of science awl industry it gives us, says Gas Logic. Among the things derived from it are the most delicate dyes, perfumes and flavorings, some of the most valuable medicines, the most powerful explosives, asphalt for pave- Ments, oils for lighting, lubricants and burning; photographic developers, be- sides benzine, naphtha, gasoline, etc. When, early last century, it was dis- covered that illuminating gas could be made by burning coal, the tar residue was almost a waste product. But Frederick Accum suggested that tar be boiled in a still and the volatile products be collected and condensed. The process - yielded two oils, one light _ and volatile, the other heavy. The latter was used as a preservative for wood under water. The former was adopted by a Glasgow chemist named Macintosh as a waterproofing for clothing, and garments so treated still bear . his name. It was used also as a solvent in varnish -making and, as coal. naphtha, for lighting. Hofmann extracted benzine from naphtha, and his pupil, Pergin, while trying to produce an artificial quinine, discovered that by treating benzine with nitric acid and powdered cast- iron it could be turned into aniline. This worked a revolution in the color! industry, .almost abolishing the vege- table indigo, from which so many bril- liant colors had hitherto been ob- tained. Perkin discovered also that anthra- cene, one of the heavier oils of coal. tar, could, by heating it with zinc fil- ings, take the place of the expensive vegetable matter as a dye. Thus, he produced alizarin, one pound of which has the coloring power of ninety Pounds of madder. In this way the rich purples, violets, reds, browns, blacks, blues and greens are produced. When the benzine has done its work in the aniline still, the dust is used by the gas manufacturers to cleafrse his coal gas from sulphur. Then if is passed on to the chemist, who burns the sulphur out of it and makes sul- phuric acid. Perkin made the perfume known as \New Mown Hay\ from another prod- uct of tar. He turned the vanillin of the gas works into vanilla flavorings, by treating benzine with an acid he imitated oil of almonds, and by mixing this with vanilla produced heliotrope perfume. Further steps in the refinement and distillation of coal -tar oils prodared carbolic acid, saccharin, antipyrin, phenecetin, aspirin, and many other medicines, antiseptics and preserve - t In et another direction some of the coal -tar oils have been turned into such explosives as are now being used in the shells and --- therts - nnoTrartits -----.
