Aniuvestigation by the treasury de-
partment reveals the fact that millions OF
dollars worth Of the United states bonds
subscribed for at the recent offer of
bonds on the popular subscription plan
have bean taken up on fraudulent appli-
cations by bankers and capitalists.
Peoples names have been secured to the
applications for amounts under $500, the
limit placed to give the common people
a chance, who had no interest whatever
and ia many cases the ns,aes are absolute
forgerles. By putting in a number Of
such applications bankers and capitalists
were enabled to procure large blocks OF
the bonds, and many of the deserving
and poorer people were thus crowded
out Of them. 1t is stated a further iu.
Investigation Will be made by the de
partment aud III all cases where it is
established hat bonds have been pro-
cured in this way they will be cancelled
by the department.

4 good instance of how republican
leaders can lggle with Their party and
yet have every man Of the latter walk
up TO the polls and endorse the action of
the machine Is brought out in the re,
cent change Of the Mitchell platform
since it was adopted by the convention.
The platform was a very loosely gotten
up affair, with many extravagant ex-
pressions in it that made the document
a buriesque on the face of it. 1t was
about t%wo.thirds buncombe or lies and
the other third %bypocricy and while
neither the leaders the party in order
to win dare change tho latter the ma
chine has concluded that the former had
better be toned down and not provoke
the disgust Of it's own adherents and the
ridicule of it's opponents. So q secret
~oonclave somewhere has shortened the
wording Of the platform about five inches
and cut out many Of the false and ex-
t%ravagant expressions as read and
adopted by the convention. The latter
platform has been issued from Sioux
Falls but under what authority is not
stated, the Argus-Leader becoming
sponsor and godfather for it's issuance.
A comparison Of the original platform as
taken by the stenographers, in which
they all agree, while being read to the
Mitchell convention and the spurious
document now issued by the Argus.

In This Story.
Once a farmer had l,SOO bushels of
wheat. which he sold not to a single
grain merchant, but TO 1880 different
dealers. a bushel each. A few of them
paid him in cash. but far the greater
number said il was not convenient then;
they would ray later. A few months
passed, and the mans bank account ran
low. How is this:" he said. MY
1900 bushels Of grain should have kept
me in affiuence until another crop is
raised, but l have parted " it'll the grain
and have instead only o vast number of
accounts, SO small and scattered that I
cannot get around and collect fast
enough to pay expenses"
So he posted up a public notice and
asked all those who owed him to paw
quickly. But few came. The rest said,
milne is only a small matter, and l
will go and pay one of these days, for
getting that though each account was
very small, when all were put together
they meant a large sum to the man.
Things Went on thus. The man got to
feeling so badly that he fell out of bed
and awoke, and running to bis granary
found his 1900 bushels of wheat still
safe there. He had only been dreaming.
Moral.-The next day the man went
to the publisher of his paper and said /:
Here, sir, is the pay for your paper,
and when next years subscription is

bread" from Armenia is made from clover seed, flax or linseed meal, mixed with edible grass.
 In the Molucca islands, the starchy pith, of the. sago palm furnishes a white, foury meal. This is made mp into flat, oblong loaves, which are baked in curious little ovens, each being divided into oblong cells to receive the loaves.
 Bread is also made of roots in some parts of Africa and South America, It is nude from mani oc tubers. These roots are a deadly poison if eaten in the raw state, but make a good food if prepared. To prep are it for bread the roots are soaked for several days ln water, thus wash ing out the poison. The fibers are picked out, dried and ground into flour. This is lnlxed with milk, if obtainable; if not, water is used. The dough is formed into little round loaves and baked in hot ashes or dried in the sun. Sanitary Record.

Bread of the Nations.

It is a curious and interesting study to compare the various materials which serve the different nations of the world as the basis of their bread. In this country, where good bread, made from spring and fall wheat flour, is
 within reach of all, rarely q thought is gwen to the fact that after all, the inhabitants of only a small portion of the earth's surface enjoy such food. In the remoter part of Sweden the poor
 make and bake their rye bread twice year and store the loaves away, so that eventually they are as hard bricks.
 Farther north still bread is
 made from barley and oats. h Lapland oats, with the inner bark of the pine, are used. The two together, we'll ground and mixed, are made into large, fiat cakes, cooked in | pan over fire. In dreary Kamehatka pine or birch
 bark by itself, we'll macerated, pounded and baked, frequently constitutes the whole of the native
 bread food. The Icelander scrapes
 the "lceland moss'' off the rock land grinds it into four, which
 serves both for bread and for pud- dings.
 In some parts of Siberia, China and other eastern countries 2 fairly palatable bread is made from buckwheat. In parts of Italy chestnuts are cooked, ground into meal and used for making bread. Durra, a variety of the milleI. is much used in the coun-
 tries of India, Egypt, Arabia and Asia Minor for making bread.
 Rice bread is the staple food of the Chinese, Japanese and large portion of the inhabitants of India.
 In Persia the bread is made from rice, flour and milk it is called s1awash. 7 The Persian oven IS built in the ground, about | the size of a barrel. The sides are smooth mason work. The l fire ;s built at the bottom and kept burning until the walls or sides of the oven are thoroughly heated. Enough dough to form a sheet about one foot wide and two feet long is thrown on the bench and rolled until about as thin as sole leather, then it is
 taken up and tossed and rolled from one arm to the other and flung on the board and slapped on the side of the oven. It takes only. a few minutes to bake and
 when baked it is spread out to
 cool. This bread is cheap ( cent a sheet) it is sweet and nourish- ling.
