WOOD GETS SCARCER.
disappearing Before the Worlds In

~" 'eh''' h' -"
creasing Consumption.
DR.. w. Schlich, the well-known for
est expert, in a recent address before
the London Society of Arts, predicted
q positive timber famine in the near
future unless systematic measures for
increasing the worlds supply be speed
lily adopted. He pointed out that the
use of wood, in spite of It's replacement
by coal as fuel and by steel in con-
struction, was steadily increasing.
The per capita consumption in the
four chief countries of Europe is now
fourteen cubic feet each year, and in a
few years will probably reach twenty
cubic feet. For this increase the use
of wood in paper making seems chief
ly responsible. The steady rise in
prices. especially of coniferous woods,
in spite of much cheaper transporta-
ton. shows that the worlds supplies
are rapidly diminishing. Only five out
of eighteen European countries export
more timber than they import. Scan
dinavia and Russia are the principal
exporters. The limit of production in
the former seems to have been
reached. Russia still has large for
ests. but domestic demands are rapidly
increasing. and an eXportable surplus
cannot long be depended upon.
The North American supplies are
visibly declining. China has no tim
Der to spare, and that country, when
developed on modern lines, will be
an importer rather than an exporter.
There remain the rest of Asia, South
America and Africa as sources of sup
ply. But these do not furnish n con-
siderable amount of coniferous woods,
which are most in demand. DR.. Schlich
therefore concluded hat the danger
of a deficient supply of coniferous
wood was practically at hand, and
that deficiency of all would soon oc-
cur unless remedial measures were
adopted. The remedy is easy, although
time is required for its application. 1t
is. as DR.. Schlich pointed out, to cul-
tivate timber upon waste land, just as
other crops are cultivated upon more
| fertile soil. In Great Britain alone
there are %, 200, 900 acres of such
lands. One quarter of this area, DR..
Schlich asserted, would make the
country Independent of foreign sup
plies of timber. The same remedy
would restore the declining timber in
dustry of the United States.-The For

Indianapolis, Sept. ga step that
is regarded as the most remarkable
ever taken as to the secret work of
Odd Fellowship was recorded when
the sovereign grand lodge, the SUI
preme body, voted to allow duplicate
copies of the secret work of the order
to be made. The resolution adopted
provides that each state jurisdiction
shall receive one copy of the secret
work. No additional copies will be
made. There was a long and spirited
discussion on the resolution, its adop'
ton having been stubbornly opposed
by many of the prominent representa-,
tives.

How to Travel in Comfort.

The best way to emove my dust
Ia to dip a rag in elder flower water

face all over with a thin cold cream.
and leave on until you make your ap'
pearance among your friends, When.
wipe of with a soft towel; then use a
vaporizer Tor sponge with warm wa
teri, and finish by LAYING well with
cold water to close the pores and give
firmness to the skin. If powder is used
in travelling, it should be put on only to
dust it OF again. To keep 1t on makes
the skin dry and harsh. At night rub
on a very little cold cream when re
firing as the close air and electric
light arc very injurious to the complex

Water Cure for Chronic Constipation
Take two cups of hot water half an
hour before each meal and just before
going to bed, also a drink of water, hot
or cold, ABOUT two hours after each
meal. Take lots of outdoor exercise
walk, ride, drive. Make a regular habit
of this and in many cases chronic con
stipation may be cured without the use
of any medicine. When a purgative
is required take something mild and
gentle like Chamberlain's Stomach and
Liver Tablets. For sale by Frank H

PORTO RICO ORANGES.
First Shipment Under Free Trade
Reaches New York.

New York. Oct. 24.-Much interest is
being taken in local fruit circles at the
moment in the receipt of oranges from
Porto Rico and in the prospects of an
increase in the trade in the Porto Rican
product in competition with the fruit
grown in California and Florida, says
the journal of Commerce.
During the past fortnight between
1900 and 5000 packages of oranges have
arrived in this market from Porto Rico
These represent the first shipments of
the season and are, moreover the first
shipments reaching this country since
the establishment of free trade rela-
tions between the United States and
Porto Rico. They have nearly all been
sold at auction at prices below the nor
NAL figures for California fruit early
in the season. The question of the
price the Porto Rican fruit may COM
mand has not yet had a fair demon
stra ton, in that the receipts thus far
have been particularly inferior in quail
ity. especially so far as the packing
of the fruit is concerned. The latter
bears every indication that the shippers
are new at the orange business. How
