LAST EXCURSION TO ATLANTIC CITY

The last opportunity to enjoy one
of the cheap-rate excursions to Allan
tic City, which have been run during
the summer by the Baltimore and Ohio
R. R.. will be offered on Thursday,
: August 25th. The low rates will be
provided as heretoforef rom Pitts
burgh, Wheeling, Parkersburg, and
all intermediate station to Washington
junction, Nd, and as it will be
the last excursion of the season
no doubt it will be largely patro-
nized by those who have not yet visit
ed the seashore during the heated
term. The train service provided for
these excursions is unexcelled, and the
country through which the express
trains pass stands without a rival in
the picturesqueness and variety of its
scenery.
Tickets will be valid for return jour
ney for twelve days from days of sale,
also to stop off at Philadelphia for the
night of August 25th, and will be good
On all regular trains. On return jour
9sy they will be good to stop off at
Washington, thus affording an oppor-
unity to visit the numerous. public
buildings, which are open to visitors
Tree of charge, and to take trip
down the Potomac to Mt. Vernon, the
t'nb of Washington as well as to visit
U trr places of interest IN and near
Washington.

The American Doctrine.

The thiHgs that we cannot make
for ourselves or produce for our
selves we must buy elsewhere, and,
therefore, we want no tax upon
them, but the things we can produce
among ourselves and tor ourselves,
it is economy for our people 70 buy
from each other, and if the foreign
producer wants to enjoy any part of
this market he must be subject to
the terms we shall tax in the interest
Of our own countrymen. That is
the principle Of protection. That is
the doctrine Of patriotism. That is
the principle of our country first
and our countrymen first. That is
the principle of home and family.
That is the doctrine of true Ameri-
canism. - Cor. HcRm1ey.

The Rockford Register-Gazette
very perlinently calls attention to
the fact that the cry Of the free
traders that no diversified home
market for farm products exists Is a
falsehood of the absurd type. The
hay crop cone year with another, is
the greatest money crop of Ameri-
can farms. Only / of l per cent. is
exported, and that for accidental
demands that do not effect the gen
eral market. OF the American oat
crop ! of per cent. is exported.
The corn market of the world is
nearly all in the United States.
Only ? per cent is exported, and
when foreigners buy they pay the
price fixed by the market here. OF
the butter product only fraction
of , per cent is exported Eveu i'm
the one food item, the product Of
field tilIage, on which the exports
are heavy, namely, wheat, the ex.
ports for the last decade shown in
the agricultural reports (Secretary
Rusk's last rePorl were but TO-
per cent Of the total production"
Such figures are without appeal.
The market for all home products
is diversified and strong, and such
things as we have been compelled
TO import at high prices are, under
present laws, being produced in our
midst, giving profitable employ
ment to thousands, putting millions
of money in active legitimate cir
culation, and adding to the general
weil-beiug.
Coz. SPooNER is, emphatically,
what The New York Tribune called
him-"the dragou-sIayer Of the
Northwest" He has driven his
shining spear straight to the heart
of another gerrymander monster.

MADE OF HIS wlFE's HAIR.
Tho Pair of Mittens Which q German
Seaman Gave a Yankee Captain.

The Pair of Mtttens Which German
Seaman Gave Yankee Captain.
In the extensive collection of curiosi-
ties that Capt. Alvin Hall, of Deering,
Me-, has been accommodating during his
many voyages in the past twenty-five
years, is a pair of mittens that at a
casual glance has very ordinary ap-
pearance and look rather out of place
among the beautiful corals and shells
of the cabinet. But closer inspection
shows that they are no commonplace
mittens, but are made of human hair
very neatly woven. When drawn upon
the hands they feel as if the coldest at
mostphere could not penetrate them or
the roughest usage destroy them. They
are undoubtedly exceedingly warm and
durable, for they have seen hard service
on the hands of second mate of Capt.
Halls vessel, whom he shipped in South
America two years ago. The man was
a German and said that the mittens
were made from his wife's hair. He
gave them to Capt. Hall, since he had
another pair made from a mixture of
the hair of his mother and sisters. The
hairs of this second pair were of several
colors, the white of his aged mother
being prominent He said it was not
an infrequent custom among German
sailors to be thus supplied with mittens
for a voyage, and certainly it is sensi-
BILE economy to thus utilize the comb
ings from the heads of their families,
which would otherwise be thrown away.
Another curiosity in Capt. Halls col
lection is tiny boat about three inches
long, fashioned from a fragment of the
British man-of-war Samoset, that was
sunk off Cape Cod over one hundred
years ago, and that during an unusually
violent storm about five years ago, was
washed ashore from out the depths Of
the sea and thus brought into the light
of the sun after centurys entomb
ment The wood is black oak and is in
a perfect state of preservation. No de
scription could do justice to the beauti
full coral specimens in this collection
In point of quality this collection o.
corals has been said by many to sur
pass anything in the country.-Port

The Age of some Temples.

Near Fort Yuma the mummy of an
ancient parsonage has been found ia IA
sitting posture in an artificial care fac
ing the entrance, which is so orieiIted
as TO admit to him the first rays OF the
rising sun On what day Of the year the
rays are so caught does not appear, but
from the date of the discovery it would
seem to be at or near the vernai equ1-
nox. This is a matter of extreme in-
terest. A scientific person is now en-
gagged in the investigation of the orienta-
tion of Egyptian and archaic Greei(
temples. In many cases he is able TO
determine the star TO which they we're
directed and then, by an Astronomical
determination of it's place, fix the
approximate date of the temples foGn-
dation. That Stonehenge was i.r-
ranged in obedience to similar rule il
also known. The same motive has
been operative in Inca temples oi Perm
The present discovery, linking the
operations of the primitive mind Oh this
northern continent with that of
the other ancient races named is sig
nificant. Should it turn out that
the construction of this cave does really
recognize the equinoctial position of
the sun, we perhaps have novelty liz

A FAMOUS WOMAN AERoNAuT.
Madame Blanchard and Her Terrible
Death.

Madame Blanchard and Her Terrible
Death.
Francois Blanchard and his wife
were among the best-known and most
successful aeronauts in the early part
of this century. Soon after the inven-
ton of the balloon by the Montgolfier
brothers Francois constructed an air
ship with rudder and wings. In 1885
he crossed the British channel in bal
loon and for his daring was given a
life pension and gift of twelve thou
sand francs by Louis XVI. His ascents
were numerous in all parts of Europe
On on occasion he took up party of
sixteen persons from Rouen and land
ed them safely at point fif
teen miles distant. While making
his sixty-sixth ascent he had
an apoplectic stroke, from the effects of
which he died. His wife, who had ac-
companied him on most of his perilous
trips, continued to make aerial voyages,
and was quite successful Her reputa-
tion as a skillful navigator of the air
became as great as that of her husband,
and her exhibitions were witnessed by
thousands. For about ten years she
made ascents without single serious
accident, but the fate of so many other
aeronauts overlook her on the 9Th of
July, 1919. On the evening of that day
she assembled from the TivoH in Paris.

had reached a considerable height

HAVE YOUR SLEEP OUT.
Only in Rare Cases is There Any Merit In
Early Rising.

only In Raro Cases Is There Any Merit In
Early Rising.
The fact is that early rising is COM
mendable only when early rising is
necessary. 1t may broadly be stated,
in Majority of instances, to be a mis-
fortune rather than merit. Granted
ones duties require him to rise very
early IN the morning, and that, cores
pondingly, he is able to retire very
early at night, then the degree of hard
ship in the matter is reduced to the
minimum. To go to bed when the
birds tuck their heads under their
wings, and to rise with their earliest
Weakening chirp, is not so bad thing.
Who thIt has seen the marvel the
miracle of dawn in the countryside
wonderful tints and tones of the sky,
the unrolling of the mists, the revela-
ton of beauty ON field on hill, slope and
river-can feel aught but envy of those
to whom this pageant is daily recur-
! ring delight? But if one sits up till
midnight, occupied in study or in socle-
ty, and, conforming to his environment,
rises in a leisurely fashion to a some
! what late breakfast; according to the
! customs of his family and his world, is
/ ne JNeEHIOTo 10 Dt UIdnutu DIS
/ gard? May not the late risers engage
as fully - as successfully as the early
riser il tne business of the day, the
| chief r,9uisites T, for success in which
! are, perhaps, good temper, equa BILE
nerves, prompt attention and a brain
alert al quick to decide on matters of
import; nee.
Thou 7ands of people have no choice
whatev r about their hour of rising in
the morning. Later or earlier, that
hour is fixed for them by the require
nents IF the off ce, the shop or the
classroom, by the time table of the rail
read, by the arbitration of their employ
ers or necessity of their employees.
But in the cases manifold where per
sonal liberty is enjoyed it should not be
thoughtlessly restricted simply because
of the domestic tradition that early ris
ing deserves praise and late rising
blame. Breakfast may often be NOV
able feast without materially disturb
ing the routine of an orderly house
keeping day. Invalids, mothers whose
rest has been broken by teething babies
and. above all rapidly growing chill
dren, should have their sleep out. Ma
