slaughts of time. yet now, 1t Is surely be- ginning to decay, and unless prompt steps are taken to save 1t from destruc- tion 1t Is very probable that 1t will within few years be dethroned from the post ton 1t has occupied so proudly for cen- turies.
 The experts say that the terrible sand storms during the last quarter of a cen- tury have gradually worn away portions of the rock which supports the sculptured figure, and 1t Is only question of time when the ruin will be complete. Tne sphinx itself will not suffer, however, for 1t is fashioned out of solid rock.
 A day or two ater the doleful news reached France a few leading archaeol- oglsts met for the purpose of devising some effective method of saving the sphinx. and ater a long debate they de- cided that the best thing to do would be to erect huge umbrella over the monu- Fs9nt. They agreed that only in this ~ay could the sphinx be protected against Ghe destructive sandstormR which sw sep periodically over the desert
 A thorough Investigation has shown that these storms more than anything eiJe are ruining the monument, and If these can only be wardcd off," say the archaeologists, there Is no reason why the sphinx should not last until the end of the world.''
 If an umbrella is constructed for thls purpose 1t will unqusstionably he the largest in the world. for the recumbent man headed lion which 1t Is designed to protect is 10S feet 1-2 inches in length. Such an umbrella would have to be fashioned out of rock.

Doping Is term usually applied to the trick of making horses appear spirited and high-steppers by means of drugs and chemicals. An animal Is often made to pick up his legs in the quick, nervous style of a thoroughbred by having the ba ck tendons of the leg rubbed with tur- pentipe, cow-itch and ammonia; which burns like fire and makes the animal prance with pain.
 Occasionally the copper is successful in buying very cheaply what is known as a rogue horse-one which resists all at- tsmpts to be put into harness. With a sharp razor the sides of the horse will be shaved in certain places, making 1t ap- pear as though the animal was just out of harness and thorough carriage horse.
 The same performance will be gone through just below the wlthers. where the collar chafes, while. if the horse be a tricky one, chloral hydrate and opium will be administered. It is not until the unlucky purchaser tries to harness the horse to a carriage that he discovers the animals temper and it's unmanaGeable Woy0.

IS A MODEST CHAMPION.
Miss Genevieve Hecker Embarrassed
 by Her Golf Honors.

Miss Genevieve Hecker, a little 1S-year- old New York girl, is the most wonderful woman golf player in the United States and probably in the world.
 She won the national women's cham pionship recently for the second year in succession, and ever since she was lo years old golf critics have said that there was no woman in the country who could compare with her. That their opinion was quite correct the wonderfully easy way in which she has won championship title the last two years m the grace ard power of her shots prove conelusively. Although for four years there has not been a newspaper item printed about women's golf which has not contained a nothing has ever been printed of her per- sonality. She Is a slender. blue-eyed girl, feet or 4 inches tall with a great mop of beautiful golden hair. which she wears in an enormous pompadour on the golf links as we'll as off. When one hears of the 200-yard drives which this apparently fragile girl thinks matter of course. one cannot understand how she does 1t. and she could not do it were it not that she is able to put every ounce of strength and weight she possesses into her shots.
 Notwithstanding all the fame and glory and honor which have come to her she is still as modest as when she had never been heard of. and when anyone compli- H1eute HcT ou Hcf bhAil UT OfcT d NlCtOEy she blushes with an embarrassment which time or frequency cannot overcome. She cannot seem to understand ths public in- terest in her.
 When she Is not playing golf she leads the usual quiet life of the average New York girl of breeding and position. Dur ing the past year her chief interest has been in the writing of book on Golf for Women" which Is now nearly com- pleted. It has been running in serial form for several months and if has aroused most favorable criticism, both from the merit and originality of its ideas and the excellency of its literary style, which is remarkable for what is really a girls first attempt.
 She is tremendously fond of the theater. likes dancing and all the other pleasures which fill odt the round of the average young girls life.

mules and horses shipped into Alabama every year and paid for with the proceeds from the sale of Alabama cotton; doubt less the value of such farm animals runs up into the millions of dollars. The same Is true of b sef. pook, mutton and corn, all of which could be produced in Ala bama with saving profit to Alabama farmers
 To some extent our merchants stand in the way of introducing livestock. The small farmer must have advances which the merchant will not grant unless the farmer puts in the requisite amount of cotton. This In some cases prevents the small farmer from beginning. but when tae small farmer is once well esta ahl!she l in the meat-producing industry in con nection with diversified crops he might soon become independent of the advanc- ing merchants-he could buy for cash.
 Scrub cattle are not by themselves profitable. In 1900 the average valuation of all cattle in Alabama was $l2i9 per head and at that time there were less than S00.0o0 cattle in the State. At the same time Iowa had over 5.o00,0o0 cattle with naverage value of A26.55. Acclima- tion or Texas fever has prevented the introduction of purebred breeding animals into Alabama. But now we are in fair wy to eliminate that indigenous disease; at least we can safely produce cattle that are immune to that very fatal diseaEe and thus secure new blood for improving and grading up our herds.
 Tn era!lroads also are standing some what in the way of introducing livestock husbandry in Alabama. In order to fos- ter and start an infant industry the rail- roads should grant llbsral and special shipping rates upon sll registered breed ing animals shipped into Alabama. es- pecially when shipped by an Alabama farmer, and when the animal or animals are to be used on the purchasers farm However. I must admit that some of the railroads have not only granted low rates upon breeding animals, but have also brought in breeding beef cattle without cost to the owners in order to stimulate the stock industry along their respective lines Many farmers have suggested that they would be willing to pay d req s0aabie rate if the animal when cratod was billed at the actual weight of the crate and animal
 Some say that negro labor Is not com n@tIDle with stock husbandry. No dourt most negroes are ignorant of the elernen- tary principles of stDck-feeding and of the care and handling of breeding ani- m9ls Yet there is no doubt about the fact that an intelligent stock farme. could soon learn to use the negro la- borer to as good advantage as the sam grade of laborer Is now used in the cot ton field. The negro has been used 1T Kentucky and Tennessee on stock farms Again 1t Is said that the white man has left the farm and has no manifest desire to raturn to 1t. In some cases this ma! be true. Nevertheless. the stock business will offer new inducements in the way o more fascinating. more interesting ana more profitable work 10 the young mo- who seek the freedom, independence ant uealtElu,nsss of profitable farm hfe;

CAUSES TASTE FOR DRINK.
Tea Drinking Nations Are the Larg-
 est Consumers of Alcohol.

Scientists have about reached the con- clusion that the drinking of tea stimu- lates the appetite for alcoholic liquors. Great Britain. Russia and China lead the tea-drinking nations, with America as the great coffee-drinking nation and the beers second as a'coffee-drinking people. Of course, the English tea bibber who raised the question believes the tea-drink- ing nations will rule. and as proof points to the alarming tendency to early col lapse, to premature death, to nerve and brain diseases of all kinds in America. As added proof attention is called to the boers. whose downfall was due to one Of the drinking nations
 A curious point that should interest the tea drinke. is that in nation an inordi- nate consumption of tea and a craving for alcohol would seem to go together. for in national intenperancs Russia, Great Britain and Australia (where tea is largely consumed) arc still lamentably conspicuous in this line.
 Every year the individual Russian drinks six pounds of tea, while the Eng lishman consumes five. In Muscovy, however. the samovar Is always ''on the boil" In veal or in woe the first thought

cuBA's FINANCIAL STATUS
Causing Distress in the Agricultural
 Districts of the Is1aud.

The Cuban-American newspaper. La Lucha, of a recent date, has long ar- ticle on economic conditions in Cuba, the conclusion being as follows: s,
 Gan we say that there is security in the country? This is very important in an essentially agricultural country like Cuba; yet 1t is well known that 1t does bers. and they are not lacking but there is no desire to declare 1t in an official manner, the truth is that criminals who carry on their wok are abundant. Those criminals have correspondence with the cities. where they have accomplices and protectors. and they do not cease in their demands of money to the owners of ru- ral estates, threatening to harm their persons and damage their properties,
 Many landholders have been compelled and those who cannot incur the expenae have purchased firearms for their selx- defense against the outlaws who desirM to live like droaes In the hive.
 The only classes who are satisfied In Cuba are those who collect salaries from the public treasury. It is to be presumed that the immense bureaucracy that cana LID with the establishment of the repuh- lie Is highly pleased. The legion of enn- plcyes of the State. the provinces and the uation of the country, as they enjoy fat salaries and they are still punctuaily paid. they arc surprised to hear that things are in a distressing condition.
 'As long as the parasitical classes col- lect their salaries they will go on bs- tons. But producing classes who create the wealth that gives living to the bureaucrats see things in very different light. Let those producing classes Dc full, but this will not be heard in the palace nor in public offfcea."

The x-Ray in Dentistry.

The X-ray is being used indentistry with considerable success. It sometimes hap pens that the permanent or "second" teeth are not properly cut. The nlnpth is thus disfgured by the loss of the first set of teeth and the non-appeat tan.e Cf the second teeth. With the x-ray the den- tist can determine whether the second tooth Is in the gum. and. if so. why it has not appeared. The obstruction is re- moved, passage opened and the tooth works gradually down to it's place.

of all is for the cup of tea and the slice

of lemon.
 Whether due to the influence of his tea or not. the Russian already owns nearly half of Asia. He Is covering the wilds of Siberia with his railways and making 1t easy for civilized persons to get into a Pullman car at Ostand and travel 70 Pekin. The tea-drinking Anglo-Saxon has laid the Canadian Pacific Railway, has founded Rhodesia. has created the Australian commonwealth.
 Curiosly. the peopie of the Latin na- u ms use only half ounce each of tea a year. In France tea as form of dissi- patton is stationary. Twenty years ago it was regarded as a potent form of med!. vine. Even now the French citizen con. sumes three-quarte.s of an ounce in the entire yesr. It Is still difficult to per- suade the average Frenchman that cup of tea Is anything more than remedy for a cold in the head.
