Charles ST. SehwAb, President Of
the steel Trust, testified before the
United States Industrial Commission,
that the trust sold steel rails to foreign
countries at about s2S per ten, and
in this country at from $40 to s2s
per ton. As the freight from Pitts.
burg TO Liverpool is about e5, and
ihe trust pays this freight when selling
60 English purchasers, Il realizes about
els per tom bu, IN American buying
from the trust pays sac n ton, or 50
mora than the EnglishmAn, and pays
his own freight, The tariff on rails
enables the trust to rob the American
consumer Of IS on every ton Of steel
rails he buys, and yet the Republicans
tell us that is Just as il should be.

Temper Pointers,

1t is impossible to keep cool unless
the temper is under control.
Control your temper for the sake of
your health and good looks, If for no
higher reason, says the beauty doctor.
A smouldering fire is far more dan.
gercus to health than that which comes
to the surface and is quickly eXtin.
gulshed.
A disposition which continually
"boiis" within often finds outward ex.
preston in boils and ulcers, says the
health doctor.
Wrath has natural tendency to
curdle the blood, and anger interferes
with digestion.
Cultivate a serene franc of mind
under all circumstances. Do not allow
yourself TO be in the depths of gloom
and depression one day and on the
heights Of hilarity the next.
Remember at all times that the great
secret of keeping cool is to cultivate
Contentment and an evenly balanced

Seventy Years q Preacher.

Mr.. Robert Cleaver Chapman died
on the 18th of June at Barnstable with.
in seven months of the date on which
he would have completed his Tooth
year, says the London Times. The
son of Sir George Chapman, then the
representative of this country at the
Court Of Copenhagen, he was born in
Denmark on January 4, 1903. He was
called to the bar in George Tvs reign,
and for few years Travelled the West.
ern Circuit. Moved by deep religious
convictions, he relinquished his profes.
sion when still under thirty, and, after
a short period Of itinerant preaching
in Spain, settled down at Barnstable
to devote his life to good works. For
seventy years-under three British soy.
ereigns-he conducted religious serv,
ices in that town, ministering foi
almost the entire period to a congrega,
tion of Plymouth Brethren. His de.
votional writings attained considerable
circulation, and he was constantly re.
ceiving visitors from all parts Of the
United Kingdom, and even from
abroad. Mr.. Chapman spoke seven
languages with fluency. The funeral
on Tuesday was attended by members
of the Brethren community from va
rious parts Of the Kingdom.

One Hundred Years of Trousers.

Most people will be surprised to heal
that trousers, as at present worn by
the male portion Of humanity, have
just celebrated their centenary, but
according to Fashion, such is undoubt
edly the case. They "came in" on ac
count Of the high living prevalent a
hundred years ago. This produced g
good deal of gout, whose twinges the
tight-itting costume in use at that
period made unbearable. Hence the
invention of the wider form Of gar
ment, which soon became popular and
was adopted by many royal personages
at home and abroad. Among the dan.
dies of the period, however the new
style was regarded with contempt, anc
when Almack's was at its height as 6
fashionable resort, the great Duke OF
Wellington was once refused admission
because he presented himself In trou
sers instead Of the (for that time) or
thodox neither garments. So far has
their sway now extended that they
threaten to supplant even the Scottish
kllt.-London Telegraph.

Mistake of a Bridegroom.

An unfortunate mistake was mad,
by bridegroom in Canada a week OF
two ago, says the London Express.
After getting into the train which
was to take himself and his spos,
away on their honeymoon he noticed
shoe lying on the floor Of the car
riage. Thinking one of his friends hat
thrown 1t there during the send-off he
picked 1t up and flung 1t out of tn,
window.
A little later on he was surprised tt
see a commercial traveller who hat
awakened from deep sleep peerln,
under the seats and on the top of tn,
rack, and inquiring If any one had seer
a shoe, which he had taken off to ease
his corns.
Then the bridegroom discovered hi,
mistake, and the first purchase of bis
married life was a new pair of shoe
for an absolute stranger.

Tho british Barn Owls Eyos

The white barn owl Of Great Brit.
Oin has the most exquisite eye arrange.
ment and the most highly developed
sight Of any member of the owl fam
Ily. The ball seems to be a great globe
Of sight; the iris has enormous powers
Of dilatlon, and the irradlatlng power
from the back Of the eye is unusually
strong. All owls have disk Of feath-
ers around the eye. so arranged as to
collect rays of light and thro% them
on the pupil, but the eye-disks Of the
white barn owl take in the whole
face, in a sort Of heart shape, circllnS
above the eyes to the ears and coming
20 a point well under the chin. 1t finds
eats and mice in country barns and old
buildings on nights too dark and dense
for other owls to venture out.

on on a large scale. During the wheat
cutting season, when 10000 acres of
yellow grain stand rlpening in the not
sun, the managers Of the ranch are on
the lookout for men from every source,
From 200 to 300 are employed, and
they get 81 a day. Four hundred mules
are kept on the farm and are used dur
ing the harvest and corn husking
times.
The main ranch headquarters is three
miles from Bliss, Oklahoma, on the
Texas division of the Santa Fe Rail
way. Scattered about the ranch are
small houses wherein live the workers
Cattle shipments are made to the
Kansas City markets, both in Decem
Der and July. All cattle fed on the
ranch are under three years old, and
are bought in Texas. Considerable
money has been made by the Miller
boys by buying yearling mules, keep
ing them on the ranch one or more
years, breaking them and then, aftel
getting one seasons work out Of the
animals. selling them.
The 101 people are almost drouth
proof. That is, when a drouth affects
their wheat It fails to catch their late
corn. If it takes the corn. wheat and
Kafir corn are saved. Some of the
wheat Is sown on upland, some in the
valleys, so 1t is almost impossible fol
either a drouth or food to ruin the
entire crop. In this way no year comes
that will sweep away the profits en-
tirely. ="

The Telegraph Plant Of IndLn.

The telegraph plant of India fur
nishes an interesting illustration Of
how plants avail themselves of various
means of self-preservatlon. This plant
must have light on every part of its
leaves. and its device for securing It is
ingenious, If the word may be allowed.
The leaf is composed Of three leaflets,
the largest Of which holds Itself erect
during the day and turns sharply down
at night The two smaller leaflets
move constantly, day and night, de.
scriblng complete circles, with a pecu-
liar jerking motion like that OF the
secondhand Of watch. Thus every
part of the leaf Is brought under the
full action Of the sunlight.
