Feb. 20-One week ago today
Minneapolis May wheat closed at 74455 74455
at exactly which point it closed to-
day. It has been exceedingly dull
for the week; its usual performance
being to decline ] by about noon and
recover the loss about the last hour Of
the session. The narrow price
changes have reflected lack of de-
cided tendency in the news. The
weak features are competition Of
Canadian wheat in European markets
and lack of faith in the stability Of
present prices Of corn. The strong
features are-reports Of damage from
France where it is said wheat is now
without snow protection, and the
near approach of the crop scare
period in this country. Primary re-
ceipts for last week and for 4 days
this week are just about the same as
fol. the corresponding period last
year. Clearances for 4 days last week
from Atlantic and Gulf Ports are

larger than for sometime before.

The Inventor Of POSTAGE stamps.

The inventor of the gummed post
age stamp was Scotsman, Mr..
james Chalmers Of Dundee, who in
1884 suggested the adoption of the
practical system of afixing adhesive
squares Of paper to envelopes. Mr..
Chalmers was ridiculed, and, among
others, medical men predicted that
the constant licking Of gum would
be prejudicial to the health of the
nation. It was not until 1841 that
the plan Of Mr.. Chalmers received

the WONDERFUL HUMAN MACHINE.
Much Work Performed with Little
r~noo1ltura POr FueL

Much Work Performed with Little
Expenditure for Fuel
The human body forms an example
OF a machine which yields a very large
return Of energy in comparison with
what is spent upon it in the way OF
fuel, that is to say, food. Psychologists
calculate the work done by the body
in foot tons, a foot ton Of work being
represented by the energy required to
raise one ton weight one foot high. A
Woodworking man in his days labor
will develop power equal to about 5000
foot tons, this amount representing
both the innate work Of his frame in
volved in the acts of living and his ex-
ternal muscular labor as a newer OF
wood and a drawer of water.
A mans heart, in "a hours, shows a
return equal to 120 foot tons; that is,
supposing he could concentrate all the
work of the organ in that period into
one big lift, it would be capable OF
raising 100 tons weight n foot high.
The breathing muscles, in "a hours,
develop energy equal to about 81 foot
tons, and when are added the actual
work of the muscles and that expended
in heat production 5000 foot tons are
arrived at as the approximate daily ex-
penditure Of energy.
All this power. moreover, Is devel-
oped on about eight and one-third
pounds of food a day, the supply in
cluaing solid food, water and oxygen.
No machine of mans invention ap-
proaches near to his own body, there
fore, as an economical energy pro-
ducer, and this for the practical reason
that the human engine gets at it's work
directly and without loss Of power en-
tailed in other appliances that have to
transmit energy through ways and
means involving friction and other I'M
toward conditions.

PLAY GOLF UNDER DIFFICULTIES
Ancient and Modern Enthusiasts Are
Much Alike.

Ancient and Modern Enthusiasts Arc
Much Alike.
1t is not generally thought that golf
is a dangerous game, though now and
then a fore caddy is picked off, and
wanderers on the links often think
they are in danger of their lives. But
if not in itself risky to life and limb,
golf is a game for the sake of which
its devotees have run immense risks.
In this respect perhaps no other game
can compare with it, and only wild
game shooting among sports. The in
cidental dangers are suggested by a
writer in Golf, who has heard of the
golfing Of some Scotch soldiers in Al
RIGA. They acquired some clubs from
some quite unknown quarter, and used
to ride owe to Maseru to play the
game, in spite of the numerous snipers
in the locality. The enthusiasm was
more remarkable as it was necessary
to carry around a gun as well as the
clubs. But the riskiness Of the amuse-
ments is nothing to the dangers faced
by their Scots ancestors in the High
lands. A man with half a dozen blood
feuds, so 1t is asserted, would journey
down to the links, dispense his small
banl of followers as scouts on the
hills. take off his hauberk, and drive
his ball %furiously till the first note of
warning. Whether the tale is strictly
historical may be doubted by precise
historians; but the game is old enough
to justify the writer, and it is fair to
argue that If scotsmen and English
men to-day carry their golf clubs to
the seat OF war and play in the pres
ence OF snipers, the ancient hero show
ed no less courage in the pursuit of
his favor1te pastime.-London Globe.

PURE-FOOD LAW.

Kentucky Tests show Fruit Jelly Made
Wholly OF Glue.
The General Assembly of Kentucky
recently enacted a law providing for
the inspection Of food products sold in
that state, and intrusted the work to
the agricultural experiment station.
The station submitted a report show
ing that fully 40 per cent of all sam
pies of food taken were adulterated.
Some OF the adulterants used are in
furious to health; others have been
put in to cheaper articles Of food. Az
examples Of the former, the inspectors
found so-called fruit ~jellies" made
wholly or in part of glue and artificial
coloring and flavoring matters. They
found salicylic acid, sometimes in
large quantities. In tomato catsups,
preserves and other food products
which were sold as pure, and formalde-
hyde and other p~reservatives in milk.
which perhaps in some cases was fed
to infants. The most striking example
OF all Is in the case of essence of pep
permint and essence OF cinnamon.
These extracts contained wood alcohol.
a poisonous substance, as one OF the in
gradients. In the preparation Of these
essences a mixture Of wood alcohol
and common alcohol was used In place
OF common alcohol, presumably to
avoid the government tax on alcohol.
This condition Of affairs is by no
means confined to Kentucky. Equally
fragrant instances of aaulteration are
reported in the publications of other
stations engaged in the inspection Of
foods and from many other sources.
