Fiber Manufacture in the United States.

OF the S26,90G,0o0 worth of fibers i'm
ported, nearly one-half is sisal hemp,
which is successfully grown in Florida,
in the Bahama Islands just off the coast
of Florida, and in Yucatan, where the
conditions of soil and climate do not diff
fer materially from those of southern Flor
ida, says Everybody's Magazine. The
plants thrive upon the almost naked canal
rocks OF the islands and keys along the
coast Of Florida, and in large numbers
have been transported to the Bahamas to
stock the sisai plantations there, which
are rapidly becoming profitable. Jute, Of
which we import nearly $4.0O0,000 worth
annually, has been successfully grown in
the United States, and 50 have others Of
imported fibers. In addition to the $26,-
100000 worth Of fibers imported, there
are importations of manufactured tibers
to the amount of So, 100000, most of
which would be spun and woven in Amer
lean mills if the raw material were pro-
duced here The Agricultural Department
which has carefully investigated this sub
jcct declares: when S2O.0D0000 worth
of fibers are now manufactured in this
country it might be possible to manufac-
ture S+0.G0 GOO worth, and thus double
the home fiber industries. and it might
easily be possible to produce home grown
fiberS to the extent of one-half of the
supply needed"

WHAT EVERYBODY
WANTS TO KNOW
Especially the Ladies
How a Beautiful Head of Thick
Hair May Be Acquired and
How it rlay Be Retained.

Perfect preparations for the prevention
and cure of dandruff, falling hair and pre-
mature badness have existed in the past
only in theory.
We know that diseases Of the hair and
scalp are of parasitic origin.
This truth is the result Of modern inveS-
logical origin of disease.
We know now that the itching scalp,
the falling hair and the dandruff that an
noy and dishgure are the work OF para
site hidden deep down in the scalp.
To cure the surface Indications we must
reach the cause below.
This. Cranitonic Hair Food does.
1t penetrates to the entire depth OF the
hair-follicle and destroys the parasite that
causes the trouble.
1t does more-it feeds the weakened
hair-follicle back to health.
1t is Il natural food for the hair. It
gives the hair new life, luster and growth
by feeding the scalp which holds the hair
roots, for the life of the hair is in the
scalp.
1t is absolutely harmless, contains no
grease, sediment or dye matter.
Have you dandruff?
Cranitonic Hair Food will positively
cure it.
Is your hair falling?
The only way to stop falling hair is to
destroy the parasite which causes it.
Cranitonic Hair Food does this, and
then feeds the folicles and roots and re-
builds the waste tissue.
The result is new growth of strong,
beautiful thick hair.

four by eight feet, and the hillock, at the
top Of which the spring opens, from 30
to 20 feet across. This hilleck 10 appar-

for il is a mere dome-shaped shell. The
water is said to have valuable medicinal
properties, and a company was organized
at one tins togiocate sanitsrigm there;
but the instruction prevented the eIscu-
ton of the plan. Valuable mineral springs
are found at Tivi, Province of Albay; at
Sibul, Province of Bulacan, and at Lor
Banos. on Laguna de Bay; but Mariveles
is more readily accessible from Mania
than any of these points.
On returning to the wharf we found
another excursion launch, the "Luzon,
with party from Manila, and we had
a very pretty race from Mariveles to San
Jose. the port Of Corregidor.
The channel west Of Corregidor con-
tains some remarkable rocks; the western
most. some three miles from the main
island, La Monja, the nun, from the di-
rection we viewed it, hardly suggests the
name, but Santa Amalia, about half
mile from Corregidor, resembles classic
female figure sitting ON dome. Hora-
dada, very near the shore, shows an arch
at its base, the result, doubtless, Of wave
action.
The Island Of Corregidor rises over SOC
feet and has light at the summit visible
for 80 miles; it il about three miles long
and is said to have a population Of over
500 people. Though the native part of
San Jose de Corregidor is not specially
attractive, the arrangement Of roads and
display OF hospitals and Notifications
forms a picturesque view. From the road
to the fort the channels are visible on
both sides, and Caballo Island to the
west The Hooker" q. S. transport,
is still on the reef where she struck be-
tween the two.
A large stone monument, commemora-
tive OF some Spanish hero, stands in
rather topping condition in the valley
to the west of this road. We left San
jose at 4:45 p. m, and kept ahead Of
the Luzon to Manila. We were passed,
however, by the large Japanese steamer
"Kasuga Maru," from Yokohama, as a
greyhound passes a poodle, and she ac-
tually disappeared before reaching her
anchorage in distance of % miles, as
sisted somewhat, it is true, by the declin-
ing day. We met the q. 8. sc. T. Kin
TUCK" going out in a cloud Of black
smoke, bound for Portland with 4 Quar-
termaster cargo.
When we got ashore, at 7:45, It was
learned that certain launches had not
been allowed by the authorities to make
the trip, for the reason of not carrying
enough life-preservers.

Of Tennessee but that will testify that
this country never produced grander types
Of loyalty to Old Glory than came from

Glory, in the early eos, was assailed. II

that the angel Of liberty Is driven from
this land, her last lingering place will be
over the mountains and hills Of Tennss-

Queer Pension Reiection.
Warren GnJ sentineILeader.)

Late last year Commander Cullen, as
attorney, fled in the Pension Department
claim for pension for Moses r. Lever
ton. The claim was given a number by
the Department and nothing further was
heard from it until last March, when Mr..
Cullen received a notice signed by II.
Clay Evans, Commissioner of Pensions,
saying the claim was rejected on the
ground that the claimant was not dis
aBled TO 4 pensiOnable degree. Mr.. Lever
ton had never received an order for a med
zeal examination, and how claim could
be justly rejected before the Medical Ex-
amining Board had passed upon it is one
Of the many peculiar incidents of II. Clay

Evans can explain. The old soldiers have
brought great pressure to bear upon Pres
ident Mckinley for the removal Of Evans,
