Already good finishing timber is made from
straw nice facings and trimming are made
Of terra Gotta or baked clay, which may be
nodded to any desired shape, and made as
highly ornamental as one could wish. 1t is
evident that inventive art combined with
esthetic tastes will in the future readily adapt
itself to the demands of civilization. and
and while building material may grow
scarcer, succeeding generations will think OF
the age of wood as well suited to the needs
Of q generation which, ia its rapid settlement
Of a new country, found it indispensable, at
the same time coDgratulating themselves
upon the possession Of more dnrable, fully
as ornamental, and equally as cheap substi-
tutes in clay, glass and paper and iron.

The Complexion as Q Detective.

In speaking o. prisoner who bad just

said 81 don't like bis color. In fact it be-
trays him." When asked to explain, he
said 1--WE can nearly always tell 8 newly
discharged convict who has served q long
time in prison by his color, which comes
over his face because he is denied the sun
light. Many a man has been picked up by
that fact alone, and detectives keep it con
staantly in mind. The face gets a paid look,
with q yelloWish cast. All the noted thieves
who nave served for q long time in prison
have this hue. Some of them are sharp
enough to try % overcome il by cosmetics
and they are as particular about fixing up
their complexion, under the circumstances,
as q woman going 10 8 ball, for they know
that the detectives vii spot them il they
once catch q glimpse Of their color" " Do

complexion T. Eyes, night editors. That'l

A Man Bound 80 Succeed.

We know of at least one man that is des-
tined, if he lives for . few years, to have a
bank account. Heis apparently an emigrant.
and probably arrived here last evening. This
morning he was met on one of our principal
streets, q sturdy-looking, Well-knit foreigner,
wearing 4 Wrinkled but clean blouse and
armed with d bran new saw and saWbuck,
the latter evidently being Of his " manu-
facture. He was just striking out to find
something to do. His bright, manly face
told Of the faith that was il him-faith in
the success of industry and aobriety. The
man is not of the kind that come to the Pa
ci6e Coast with the expectation Of finding q
gold mine or taking up . fine ranch within q
week after his arrival, nor Of that other class
that lounge about waiting for something to
turn up. Harealized the fact that be was

Wood Substitutes.

As anything begins to grow scarce and the
supply to fail, men put their wits to work for
substitutes, or make inventions and contri-
vances that will answer the purpose Of the
article that has become scarce. Therefore,
as timber and lumber becomes scarce, other
things are beginning to be used as substitutes
and we may speculate upon the details Of
architectural estimates in the future as in
Guiding paper for door and window frames,
floors, holdings and roofs, classic porches
and pillars as well as for lighting terra

Changes OF "a Century.

The nineteenth century has witnessed
many, and very great discoveries and
changes. "
In 1909 Ful on took out the first patent for
the invention Of a steamboat.
The first steamships which made regular
trips across the Atlantic Ocean were the
Sirius and Great Western in 1888.
The first public application to practical
use of gas for illumination was made in
1902.
In 1873 the streets of London were for
the first time lighted with gas.
In 1918 there was built in Waltham,
Massachusetts, a mill, believed to have been
the first in the world which combined all
the requirements Of making finished cloth
from raw cotton.
In 1890 there were only twenty-five post
offices in the whole country, and up to 1887
the rate Of postage WAS twenty-five cents
for a letter sent over four hundred miles.
In 1907 wooden clocks began to be made
by machinery. This ushered in the era of
cheap clocks.
About the year 1888 the first railroad of
any considerable length in the United
States was constructed.
In 1740 the first experiments in photo
graphy were made by Dagurre. j
About 1910 the express business was
established.
The anthracite coal business may be said
to have begun in 1920.
In 1886 the patent for the invention Of
matches was granted.
Steel pens were introduced flor use in
1903.
The first successful trial of a reaper took
place in 1888.
In 1916 Elias Howe obtained a patent
for his first sewing machine.
III The first successful method Of making
vulcanized Indian rubber was patented in
1889.

The Worlds London cablegram Of Novem
Der 10Th says: The question of the annexa.
ton of Canada to the United States is
beginning to excite interest. here. A con.
t%roYersy is going on between Professor
Goodwin Smith and Sir Francis Hincks.
Mr.. Smith denounces the policy of England
in retaining Canada as Jingoism, and points
out. with great force, that the scheme Of
imperial federation and of an imperial
Zollverein is madness, as Canada cannot be
divorced from her natural associations and
and her natural markets-and hitched on to
England as a sort Of donkey-engine.
Sir Francis, loyal British pensjoner that
he is, declares that there is 40 wish for
annexation il Canada. | think, however,
that no small proportion OF the fixing
loyalty Of the Canadians is assumed for q
purpose. When Sir John Macdonald comes
here he tells us at every opportunity tina
Canada has an army Of $50, 900 men ready
to spill their last drop of blood for the old
flag, and then he asks for an appropriation;
in other words, a neW loan, to be s%quandered
on railways and canals, which do not pay,
and which ultimately, like the new Canada
Pacific, fall under American control, or,
like the 1ntercolonial, are rendered useless
by shorter routes.
Unless have been %grievously misinformed
a plebiseite on annexation IN the city of
Montreal would astonish Sir Francis Hincks,
and in Western Canada, where the people
are ruhhi14 ahgulders with Americans in
their everyday business, the feeling in favor
of annexation is growing, although to be an
avoWed annexationist is not fashionable.
I am told also by English friends just re-
turned from the Northwest, where they had
every o%pportuity Of ascertaining the drift
of public opinion, that the annexation feel
ing IS rapidly growing there.
The new Canadian tariff compels the set
tiers to send for their farm machinery and
other goods all The way to Ontario, instead
of to Minnesota. The Canadian Government
is handing oyer its territory to Z brooa Of
m%onopolists, public and private, and the
Canadian Pacific Railway Company, which
is the st. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba
Company, has secured privileges and are *
ercising a tyranny that are both retarding
settlement and exciteing the people against
Canadian rule. The older provinces are
peopled, in the main, BY old countrymen,
who cling to British institutions, but the
Northwest contains q motley crowd, that
cares more for its own material welfare than
for any s~entimentalities.

Potatoes from Ireland.
american Grocer Nov. is 18S1.)

@ @@@@I@Es ~E~M#
Last week, we chronicled the importation
of cabbages from Germany, and now comes
the importation Of potatoes from Ireland.
The high price ruling here has rendered the
importation profitable. The English dealers
heard of this scarcity and lost no time in
making shipments Of the vegetable to this
country. It is not claimed at this time by
dealers here that there is a scarcity Of native
potatoes, but it is said that there are more
Of them in this city than anywhere else.
While the American potatoes are sold at
from 50 50@3 a barrel, the product Of
Ireland can be shipped to this country and
an agreeable profit realized BY the dealers
who sell them at from 80 5000 so a barrel.
The Irish potato bears a close resemblance
to the kind raised in America. It is, per-
haps, of more aolidity, and is said to be a
rare and e%nticing dish. Last week 800 bags
Of them reached this port on the White
Star steamer Celtic. Thirty tons we're
shipped on the Wisconsin and SO tons ara
on their way on the Britannia, and more
are expected on the Adriatic. The greater
quantity Of these potatoes come from the
North of Ireland.
