CAN'T SECURE CHEAP POSTAGE
ny New Ruling of Post Omcc Re-
turned Copies of Paper Are
Shut Out from Pound Rates.

Under the old regulations it was
possible for q newsdealer to send
back unsold copies of second-class
paper to another newsdealcr at the
pound rate. This privilege was not
extended to the Office of publications,
as the regulations were drafted, and
it was supposed to have been made
in the interest of the large news
companies, which in that way could
control considerable circulation of
the newspapers because they could
receive back unsold copies from their
agents at the pound rate, while the
publishers would have TO pay four
times as much.
There has been feeling in con-
gress that this application of pound
rates to the return of unsold copies,
either to news agents or to publish
ers, was perversion of the original
law, which was intended to keep
down the price to actual subscribers
and was not meant to reduce the cX-
penses of the Office of publication.
The order issued by the postmaster
general recently prevents the return
of unsold copies at the rate of one
per cent. per pound. They will have
to pay the regular rate noftoneu cent
fop ifour hounces, the same as ordi.

historic icdince in vehine Threat-
ened ~ the waters of the
Adrihtto.

Recent cableRrams from Venice nn-
hounce that the historic city Is IN
immediate danger OF being engulfed
by the waters of the Adrintic For
some days u conferences has been in
progress. attended by the highest en-
gineering authorities of Italy, who
are endeavoring to formulate some
plan. by which. the beautiful city can
be protected from the sea. The MEM
bers agree that the dnnger is press
ing in the extreme.
The experts have decided that the
palace of the 'tloges is : in extreme
peril. The majestic structure fndes
the lagoon and nothing but the low
esplanade called the Riva tiegli Schi-
avoni intervehes between It and the
waters of the sea, which at high
tide during the stormy Ssenson cover
the promenade and inundRte tho low
er floor of the palace. Gradually the
stout foundations Of the majestic edi-
fee have been undermined until now
there is cause for the gravest appre-
.hension as to their stability.
The "Palazzo Ducale" was first
built in $50. This structure, the
scene OF so tnany stirring events in
Venetian history, was burned in 1919.
The palace was rebuilt under Mo-
cenigo and Foscari. In RESTORED"
form It still stands. "rhe first ham
mcr stroke upon the old palace of
Ziani," says Ruskin, "was the first
net of the period properly called the
Renaissance 1t was the knell OF
the architecture of Venicc-and Of
Venice itself"

Good Advice.

The most miserable beings in the
world are those suffering from dys-
pepsia and liver complaint. More than
scventy-five per cent. of the people in
the United States are afflicted with
these two diseases and their effects:
such as sour stomach, sick headache,
habitual costiveness. palpitation of the
heart, heartburn, water-brash, gnaw-
ing and burning pains at the pit of the
stomach, yellow skin, coated tongue
and disagreeable taste in the mouth,
coming up of food after eating, low
spirits, etc. Go to your druggist and
get a bottle of August Flower for rs

ICE PLANTS.


say ''''
In all tropical and su~htrOpiCal III
tries there has been an active appre-
citation of late years of the luxury of
ice in hot weather, and the result has
been the building of many ice plants
and cold storage houses in those lands.
In Ceylon the natives will deprive
themselves of other things in order to
have money to buy ice, and in Japan
the ice plants cannot supply the de-
mand. Cold Storage in an excel
lcntly illustrated export edition, calls
attention to the great opportunity for
the building of many ice plants in the
Philippines. 1t says: There are sew
eral reasons in favor of this wholesale
building of ice plants. These islands
are well populated. with a score or
more large cities. The land is sO,riCh
that the business done in the cities is
profitable. This condition will attract

GROWS.


Only a very few of those who for
many months past have been arguing
for or against expansion have more
than a faint idea of how the United
States have expanded during the III
years that have elapsed since Great
Britain, by the treaty of 1888, reCog-
nized II sovereignty over the land
we claimed north of the Spanish and
east of the French possessions. During
all of those years VT have expanded at
the rate of thirty acres of land for each
minute. Our 5000, 900 of inhabitants
started in 1888 with sos, 679, 800 acres
of land. which satisfied them for 20
years. Then, in 1903. under an agree
ment with France. they consummated
the Louisiana purchase, and more
than doubled Il territory by adding
to it the AS, 1903, 800 acres that reach
from the Mississippi to the Pacific, in
Guiding the mighty eXpanse of plain
and mountain that falls into prairie
slopes, dropping to the great river, ex-
tending from Canada to the northern
lines of California, Nevada and Utah,
embracing nearly all of Colorado and
including parts of Kansas and the In
dian territory. Sixteen years passed,
and in 1919 We received Florida from
Spain. 1t included what are now
southern portions of Alabama and Mis-
sissippi, and added to the union A.
7l9,GSO acres. Then. in 1915. came the
annexation of Texas. with l70,247,O i0
acres. Three years aiterwlrd we had
the MEXICAN cession of 100. 563, $40
acres, that gave us the rich states Of
California, Utah. New Mexico. Arizona
and parts of Colorado. Kansas and
Oklahoma. To all Of this was added
ALASKA, in 1867. with IFS 3S3,GfG,7 20
acres. and on top of this. NOR" recent
ly, came the Philippines. Porto Rico,
Tntuila, Guam and Hawaii-partly as
a result Of the Spanish war-adding
9S, 492, 100 acres. All of these make
1,"03, 712,SOO acres after the treaty of
1888. Since then there have been 61,-
i95, 200 minutes. which, divided into the
number Of acres. gives thirty and a
large fraction of an acre for each min
ute. During those liz years the popu-
lattOn Of the expanding territory has
grown from 5000. 900 to Si.522. 029,
which is an increase of four inhabi-
tants for each three minutes.
