Railroad a civillzing Power.

Railroadsa civilizing Power. -@*
For preserving the peace in a partly
civilized country a railway, according
to famous statesman, is worth more
than an army corps. Although The rail-
ways which are building from Haifa to
: Damascus, in Palestine, and from Da-
mascus southwark toward Mecca, are
primarily for military purposes, they
will open up country which was pros.
porous and fertile 1000 years ago, but
has since become one of the waste
places Of: the earth. They are already
using American harvesting machinery
on the plain of Jezreel.- When the pro.
posed railways are finished there will
be demand for the accompanying
modern agricultural machines. Cali
lee and the country beyond Jordan
will again blossom as the rose. .

Umbrella as a Life Buoy.

Very curious IS story which reaches
US from Marseilles. where the steamer
Vile dOran has just arrived from Al
glers- a boat had been sent to fetch the
doctor of the ship. and it was on the point
OF sailing and it had hardly started on
It's return journey to the vessel with him
on board when tremendous thunder
storm burst over the town and the port
the rain falling in a perfect deluge. The
worthy physician is a careful man and.
having prudently brought an umbrella,
with him. he opened it. He was making
the best Of bad joke when, owing to a
sudden lurch Of the boat. he toppled over
into the sea. The sailors, who were pull
ing for all they We're worth, did not no
tice his disappearance from the little
craft, and 1t would have gone very hard
with the doctor, who did not know how To
swim. II he had not retained his hold on
his precious Bingham" The umbrella.
In fact. acted as a life buoy and kept him
above water for upwards OF half an hour
when as he drifted along. his shouts
attracted the attention Of his friends in
the Vile d'Oran who had been wondering
what had become OF him. the sailors who
had come I'D with the boat. having been
utterly bewildered when they discovered
that he was not with them. The physi-
clan. who has to thank the umbrella for
his marvellous escape has not yet recOy-
cred from the shock and will have To
take little rest ere he Is himself again

The Wisconsin growers of wormwood

nearly all their output to Europe, but now
they find a good market for it in this

OF course, the drug houses of America
