QUEER OCCUPATIONS.
,'uncie Sam" Provides Employment
for Members of Every Trade
and Profession.

There is hardly any kind OF
labor or knowledge that Uncle
Sam cannot use. Possibly there
is not II single profession or oc'
cupation in the United States
that has not at least one repre-.
sentative who is i'll the employ OF
the United States government.
OF course you all know that he
has lots of doctors and lawyers
and bankers in his service. The
doctors are III the army and the
navy, in his revenue and immi-
grafton service and scattered
through all his various depart
ments Thousands OF them are
drawing his pay, from the polar
seas to the Philippines.
His lawyers are represented al
most everywhere, too. Many OF
them are in the Philippines, and
they must be good ones, for they
have important questions tc
answer. A mistake might not
only cost Uncle Sam great deaI
Of money, but involve him III
deep trouble with other nations
The lawyers who are in Uncle
Sans employ in Washington have
to be sharp ones, for there are
many extremely shrewd and clever
lawyers in congress who would be
quick enough, you may be sure,
to catch Uncle Sam mapping.
Uncle Sans bankers are scat.
tered everywhere, like his lawyers
and doctors. Some of them sit
in places called subtreasuries
Others are here and there under
all kinds of titles. Some good
ones have been working lately in
the new possessions trying to put
affairs there in order. They had
to know all about the currencies
of various countries and Just how
much actual money the depend
encies could raise at pinch and
how to provide against reckless
ness and extravaganza and I'M
expected misfortunes.
Uncle sam has lots of book
keepers, of course. He employs
an army of errand boys. He has
thousands of stenographers. He
has porters and shipping clerk:
and all the other helpers needed
by great business concerns.
In his printing shops he has
every grade of help from the
printers devil, who is the boy
that runs around with copy fol
the compositor, to high-gradt
photographers and color artists.
He has hundreds of literary
men in his employ. Some famous
artists have been glad to pain
pictures for him. They have
painted his fish and his game anc
his forest and his Indians. Thei
work has been reproduced by
Uncle Sam in beautiful book
that would cost many dollars /
copy if they had not been printed

nothing was done about it, prob
ably because it was everybody's
business, and, therefore, no
body's. The wrecks were in the
open sea, and therefore, under no
one nations jurisdiction, So,
they ali looked toward each 9TH
er instead of pitching in.
But, finally, Uncle Sam and
Uncle John Bull got tired of do
ing nothing, and they fitted out
warships to cruise for wrecks.
These ships get all the logs Of
incoming vessels, which report
having sighted anything that
looks like menace to naviga-
ton, then they steer out to the
latitude and longitude mention
ed III the log. If it is an aban-
doned ship not worth salvage,
the cruiser lies off and fires eX-
plosiye shells into it until it
sinks completely, If it is wa
ter-logged wreck that cannot be
readily sunk by gun fire, boat
parties are sent to it to blow it
up with dynamite, or to to satu-
rate it with kerosene and set fire
to it.
Many wrecks that had become
famous because they had drifted
so many years have been destroy
ed since the work started. And
many a ship is sailing strong and
beautiful today that would be
lying shattered and split on the
ooze of the ocean bottom from

sea terrors if it were not for I'm

Two Kinds of journalism.
BY ARCHBISHOP IRELAND

journalism that is honest and
honorable is one of the nations
most precious inheritances. That
which places notoriety and pelf
above truth and virtue and adopts
as its tactics of war the stunning
sensation rather than the calm
statement of facts is one of the
nations direst calamities. MI
merous in America is the journal
ism which is honest and honor
able; here and there is found
that which worships above all else
notoriety and pelf, There is here a
duty of conscience and patriotism
for Americans. May they ever be
mindful of that duty.

Uncle Sans foresters showed
Kansas how to plant trees SO that
they would break the violent
winds that swept across the state
As a result, the velocity of the
famous Kansas storms have nc
tually been reduced by many
miles an hour.
Once Uncle Sam had even
more uncommon persons than
foresters in his service. They
were rainmakers, and for several
months they tried experiments
with cannon and dynamite
bombs, that they exploded high
in the air on the presumption
that the shocks to the atmos-
phere would cause the collected
moisture 10 fall as rain. The
rainmakers were not very success
| full, and folks poked a good deal
of fun at Uncle Sam. But other
governments followed him, and
have been trying experiments ON
the same lines.

lowed by a number Of Uncle
Sans employees is that of read
ing illegible addresses. In every
large post office there is at least
one man who can read almost
every kind of n scrawl. Adj
dresses that look like the marks
of n ny's feet after it has been
in the ink bottle. are as PLAIN to
these queer employees as if the
addresses were written in the
finest copper plate. Sometimes
ingenious persons write addresses
especially designed to puzzle the
experts, but they do not often
succeed Foreigners often write

that Of looking for wrecks and

Besides the well known occupa-
tions, Uncle Sam provides many
that are not known in ordin airy
commercial life.
For instance, he has n small
army of foresters-men who 90 all
over his country year in, year out,
studying his forest. This is a
comparatively new business, but
it is going to be a most important
one for the United States, for the
forests are vital to the life of the
land. Reckless destruction OF
them, such as has been almost
the rule through generations,
would mean floods and droughts
without cessation in the end.
The trees are great balancers.
The woods are like immense reser
voirs. Without them there would
be no little streams, but instead
the waters that gather from the
rains would rush down the barren
hillsides in torrents and drown the
cities ut their bases. In hot, dry
weather there would be no moist
ure seeping down thro ugh the
earth as there is now when the
woods preserve 1t.
And then, too, if we keep on
chopping down all of our trees
there will come IA time when nc
more wood is to be had, and that
would mean ruin to nearly every
industry, for, although men call
this the age of steel, yet if you
will look around you you will find
that almost every other thing
that you see has some part in il
of wood.
Uncle Sans foresters have
learned all about trees-how long
they live, how they should he
treated, how many may be cut
each year in forest without
harm, and what trees are the best
ones to plant in certain places for
certain purposes.
| Many of Uncle Sans foresters
studied the business at his eX-
pense in Germany, where men
have been foresters for hundreds
and hundreds of years. Such
places as the Black Forest in the
Hartz mountains are famous be-
cause, although there has been
numbering in it for centuries, yet
the great woods are still ms SthicR
as ever-so thick, indeed, that
they look quite black and there j:
the darkness of evening in then
from morning till night. Scienti
fc forestry did that. For every
tree that was cut down, many
more We're planted. No tree car
be cut there until the scientist ii
charge permits 1t.
This is what Uncle Sam is try
ing to do now. lfpny state, com
munity or private individual tina
owns forests wants to know thu
wisest way to treat them, how tC
lumber in them without harmins
them and how to preserve them
the foresters will visit the plac
without charge and draw up full
plan of procedure.

early in the season, are laying 1t aside
for the more uniformly becoming

FASHION

NEW YORK, June 2S.-About all the
were on exhibition at Sherry's on Sun
day night. The day had been warm
and humid. the evening was June-like,
and every woman appeared to have Sc
lected from her new summer sartorial
acquisitions her most novel. If not her
most becoming costume. The dining
rooms were veritable parterres of ves-
ture. Laces predominated-laces Of all
sorts, made up with delicately shaded
moires. taffetas, crepes de chine, or
old-fashioned grosgrains. Everywhere
this lace and silk combination was in
evidence.
A princess gown of yellowish Cluny
had a very deep fiounce Of pale blue
taffeta about the bottom of the skirt,
and over the tops of the short lace
sleeves there were little button
trimmed strips of the same material,
and these were used upon the body of
tn gown as well.
Another habit-back gown, Of pure
white heavy Irish crochet, had tucked
squares of yellow moire let into both
skirt and bodice. By way of contrast
with these costumes there was a silk
organdie. figured in tiny pink flowers,
with q deep lace fiounce. And apropos:
some sort Of fiounce about the bot
tom Of the skirt seems indispensable.
The bodice Of this costume, which had
q garniture of fine lace inserts Of flower
design. was fulled into a crushed ribbon

All the handsomely gowned women
who wore white had large pearls in

a certain elegance is added to the toll

bouquet of orchids. With this excep-
ton no flowers were worn.
