Advantages of Worrying.

try not to worry. While contentment
is pleasing virtue, the people you
know who are contented would be bet

contentment and Indifference to the
possible troubles of tomorrow will
land anyone in the poorhouse. The

HE BROUGHT IT FROM THE
WORLDS FAIR.
And kept it two years.
How he lost it at last.

The great Worlds Fair, at Chicago, in
1898. while it gave pleasure to many, gave
pain to not few as an indirect result of
their visit to the White City. People were
lured along the miles of wonderful exhib-
its by the new marvels that met the gaze
at every step, and did not realize their
exhaustion until they dropped into a
chair in some breezy corner by the lake,
and COOLED off," That's what began the
trouble, in many cases. Of one such case,
Mrs. L. w. Stevens. Fort Fairfield, Me-.
writes:
"My husband took a severe cold and
cough two years ago last October-time of
the Worlds Fair. which we attended. This
cough lasted over two years. was accom-
panied by splitting of blood, and nothing
could be found to help him, although vari-
Gus remedies were tried. Several doctors
were consulted, but their prescriptions
afforded no relief. Finally, saw an ad-
vertisement of DR.. Ayers Cherry Pectoral
in my paper and prevailed upon my hus-
band to get bottle and try it. The very
first dose helped him and he was COM
pletely cured in a short time. We feel

OLDEST DOCK IN LONDON.
South Bank of Thames Once the Sole
Accommodation to Shipping.

South Bank of Thames Once the Sole
Accommodation to Shipping.
The oldest dock in London and the
first that was built in Great Britain is
now known as the Greenland dock II
is situated on the south bank of the
Thames. Until the early part of the
present century this dock, with
limited length of quays, offered the
only accommodations for shipping.
The space was inadequate and the river
was often blocked up with vessels. The
merchants determined to improve the
situation and the West India docks
were commenced in 1900 and completed
five years later. During the same year
the London dock, which had been com
menced in 1902, was opened. The East
India docks were commenced in 1908
and completed three years later. These
increased the water area inclosed by
the docks by 166 acres, but five years
later the Surrey docks, adjoining the
Greenland dock on the south side of the
river, with an area including the Green.
land dock of 100 acres, were begun, and
in 1915 they were completed. The two
systems are now owned by the Surrey
Commercial company. The West India
docks, three in number, were built tc
accommodate the West India trade.
The East India docks are two in mum.
Der and the five docks have a combined
area of 126 acres, with five and one-haEt
miles of quays. The London docks were
built in opposition to those of the India
companies. The western dock has an
area of 90 acres. The ST. Katherine
docks, two small basins of ten acres, are
the highest up the river, being just be-
low the tower. They were opened in
1928.
The idea that governed during this
earlier period of dock building was that
it was better to be as near to the city
as possible, but experience proved it to
be wrong. The river was crowded with
small craft. The London company de-
termined upon the construction of a
series of docks below those of the East
India company. The Victoria dock,
with an area of 90 acres, was opened in
1855. and the Albert dock, with an area
of "a acres, in 1850. The main Victoria
dock is 5000 feet long and 1850 feet
wide. The Albert dock is connected
with it by passage so feet wide, and
the two together have six and seven
eighths miles of quays. The Victoria
dock has castiron wharfng, with con-
crete backing, while the walls of the
Albert dock are built wholly of con-
crete.
The Albert dock soon attracted the
larger class of vessels. The East and
West India company met the move by
constructing the Tilbury docks farther
down the river. There is tidal basin
of 1919 acres; a lock connects this basin
with the main dock 1000 feet long and
600 feet wide. There are three branch
docks and coaling dock.
These are the principal docks of Lon
don. This brief review of their his
tory shows that the people of London
did not stick at any expense to main
tain their commercial supremacy.
These docks have been built by private
companies, who did not hesitate to ex-
pend many millions of dollars in their
construction. = San Francisco Argo-

Bigamy Common in Italy.

Italy is said to have more bigamists
than any other European country.
This is made possible because the
church refuses to recognize civil mar
riages, and the state does not regard
a church marriage as binding. The
result is that INSCRIPTIONS men marry
two wives-one with the sanction Of
the church, the other with the sanction
of the lawn. Y. Sun.
