whistle as a salute. At such times the
dog runs to the bell rope, seizes it in his
mouth and tugs vigorously. The dog
never rings the bell except at the right
time, and never misses ringing it when
1t should be rung.
Capt. Oliver, of the excursion steamer
Forest Queen, was the first seaman to
learn of the four-footed helper that the
keeper of the Wood island lighthouse
had trained to ring the bell. Several
hundred excprsionists on the boat saw
the dog Juggling at the bell rope, and
they afterwards made inquiries about
the matter.
They learned that it was an old story
with the dog, and that during fog the
patient animal rings the bell without
complaining for hours at time. He
has never been known to desert his
post, which is more than can be said for
some of the men engaged to ring fog
bells and tend lighthouses.
At nearly every lighthouse that
guards the coast there is one dog, and
sometimes the keepers have several.
They help to while away the long, lone
some hours, and are almost as good as
human companions. But, SO far as is
known, the dog pictured herewith is
the only one that has proven to be OF
any real service to his master.
1t is perhaps needless to say that the
dog is highly valued by his owner, and
money would not buy him. He is mon
grel dog, being more nearly a shepherd
than anything else. No particular eff
fort was made to teach him his duty
He picked 1t up" from observation
md it took few lessons to make him
perfect.
The animal is perfectly contented
with his lot in life, and, as he is well
fed and well housed, he has no reason
to complain that he has been forced t.
leave of the usual habits of doghood
and tug at the end of a rope to ring O
bell which will warn mariners who have
lost their way in fog.

We are told as an actual fact that
man can go into restaurant in the
city of Mexico and get good dinner
and if he presents an American silver
dollar in.payment he will get for
change Mexican silver dollar. The
difference between the two dollars pays
for his dinner, and yet there is more
silver in the Mexican dollar than in
the American. This, upon the sur
face, looks little singular but when
one goes to the bottom it is all very
plain. Mexico has free coinage and,
in consequence, is on a silver basis SO
her dollar although it contains more
silver than ours, is only worth about
55 cents, while the United States
hasn't free coinage of silver and conse-
quently is on a gold basis-her silver
can be converted into gold-hence it is
worth from 40 to 80 cents more than
the Mexican dollar containing more
silver and the restauranter who made
change in that way got that difference
for his dinner. Do our laboring men
want to be paid for their labor in these
kind of dollars?

At the Republican County Con-

Hapgood of Peru was defeated in the
nomination for State Senator, al
though he received the solid support
of the three mountain towns.
Treachery and false reports secretly
circulated in the south shire concern
ing his standing as Republican,
where his friends had done no work,
was the chief agent in his defeat. 1t
is evident that either those towns
must 60 on unrepresented, or there
must be a change in the political
methods and rulers upon the other
side of the mountain, or else a candi-
date must be presented selected by

to have no part In the matter. Mr..
Hapgood can have the consolation of
feeling that he was well supported at

export, 55,26l 1924 hundred weight
of wheat-a large increase over the
preceding annual average. In 1895
it imported sl,749,955 hundred
weight.
@. What has made possible this
remarkable increase in wheat produc-
ton A. The exceedingly rapid
development of transportation facili-
ties in newly cultivated grain coun-
tries; among them India, Russia and
the Argentine Republic
Q. Has there been an increase 10
the United States itself ? A. An
enormous increase.
@. How large A. In 1875
there were &c, 1881 ,5l2 acres of wheat
cultivated in this country in 1891
there were SO, 916,S97, an increase of
so per cent. The yield in 1875 was
292, 1876, 900 buehels, heavy increase
over preceding years. In 1891 the
yield was 611,7S0,000. Even last
year, with greatly reduced acreage
and a partial crop failure, the yield
was 467 100000 bushels.
@. Has the yield of other crops
increased correspondingly ? A.. 1t
has.
G. Give instances. A. The cui-
tiyated area of corn in the United
States in 1871 was 81, 091, 1877 acres
in 1891 it was rs, 204 ,515, increase,
ia per cent. The yield of corn last
year was more than double that of
any year prior to 1875. Both the
acreage and the average annual yield
of oats doubled since 1871. Our
cotton crop in 1894 was 80 per cent.
greater than in any year prior to l8S7.
Q, Was decline in grain and
cotton prices, under such conditions,
inevitable A AS inevitable as
decline in the price of clothing, or
furniture, or books, or steel rails, or
pins, when competition in their man
ufacture has extended enormously.
Q. Would free coinage help the
producers of grain to larger profit,
under such conditions ? A. Not in
the least.
Q. Why not ? A. Because if
the>nominal price of grain we're to
rise through initiation of the currency,
the price of everything else would
rise also, aud the farmer would be
relatively no better off than he was
before.
@. Do the free coinage advocates
use in their speeches these statistical
facts which we have examined ? They
do not.
Q. Can the subject be understood
without examining them A. 1t
cannot; the whole question rests on
these facts regarding money and pro-
duction.
| G. Why do the free coinage
speakers not use these facts and fig
ures ? A. Because the facts and
figures are against them.
G. Is there any dispute over the
truth of the figures quoted in these
answers =? A. They are undisputed,
even by free coinage men. They are
taken from the reports of the United
States treasury, of the department
of agriculture, of the director of the
United States mint, of the United
States bureau of statistics and Of the
British board of trade all of them,
in their respective spheres, the high
est known authorities.
