Inhale thee in the fulness of delight;

LARGEST GUN IN THE COUNTRY.

An official attached to the ordnance
department of the United States army
conceived the idea of excelllng mis-
predecessors by building the largest
gun ever cast in the country Finally,
after much effort. he succeeded in hav-
ing bill passed in congress approprl-
ating money to build a sixteen-inch
gun, the first of ten" The enormous
piece of ordnance, which weighs one
hundred and fifty tons and is forty
nine feet in length, is now mounted at
Sandy Hook at the entrance to New
York harbor. Its trial was success
full, because the gun was fired with
out bursting, but it is safe to say
that the remainder nine will never be
finished. The needs of the service do
not reach to the extent of hurting a
ton of metal a distance of twenty-one
miles. Still the gun is a record
breaker" and thus serves a purpose

Man of Muscle Appeals to all Women.


Mans proves appeals irresistibly
to woman. She loves his strength
and power to do things that she her.
self could not possibly do. A thrill
of admiration runs through her every
time she sees one of these mighty be-
ings lift great weight. She loves
to see the knotted muscles stand out.
She loves to watch the strong, firm
hands that often are as tender as they
are strong.
No womanly woman could watch a
prize fight; each blow as it struck
home would find an echo in her heart.
That wonderful, beautiful strength
must be exercised in more peaceful
pursuits than prize fighting. 1t is in
contrast to her own weakness that wo-
man so adores mans strength. She
cannot help but think how strong the
barrier that those firm hands would
build between her and all adversely.
Since the world began woman has
worshiped mans superior strength.
Mere brute strength will often win
where nobler qualities fail. Every
bull fighter has string of adoring wo-
men at his beck and call. Every
Roman gladiator counted his con-
quests by the score. Every modern
prize fighter has women admirers by
the hundreds, and all because he pos
sesses that one great attraction
strength.
Though woman could not watch a
prize fight without fear and trembling,
she nevertheless intensely admires the
abnormal strength of the fighters.
The weakly man, be he ever so intel
lectual, rarely commands the homage
from womankind that his more strenu-
Gus fighting brother does.
Woman's intelligence prompts her
to side with intellect; her innermost
nature attracts her to the athlete, as
the needle to the magnet. Women have
suffered much for men of brain; they
have died for men of Drawn.

CONSUMES MANY HIDES.
as7,I65 Animals Required to Supply the
Big Mayer Shoe Factory at
Milwaukee.

What becomes of the thousands of
hides gathered together annually in this
country, and how are they consumed?
This question may come to the minds of
many stock raisers, but few have any
conception of the daily requirements of
a single great modern institution like the
Mayer Boot x Shoe Company of Mil
waukee. This concern made into shoes
last year the hides of 2S1, 165 animals.
Figured on the basis of 800 working
days year, the hides of nearly 1000
animals were required each day to keep
the working force and the machinery in
operation.
To supply the demand for the trade
during the last year, there were made
into shoes the hides of
41,5S5 steers.

1920 kangaroo.
Ii all these animals were placed in

line, 213 miles long, or about the dis
lance from Chicago to st. Louis. The
number of animals required to supply
the h des for each working day. if lined
up at the Mayer factory Q, cry morning,
would reach almost mile.
To work so large an amount of mate
rial into the finished product necessitated
the employment of over GOO people all
the year round. The wages paid would
support every man, woman and child in
city of 1000 inhabitants.
The Mayer factory has a capacity of

SITUATION IN THE PHILIPPINES
Pope Receives Long Report on Con-
dItiOn of Church There from
Mgr. Guidi.

ROME, Jan. 2.-The vatican is in receipt
Of the first long report OF the situation in
the Philippines from Mgr. Guidi, apostolic
delegate in the Philippines. The delegate
expresses the hope that as he and the
governor are minated with the desire to
maintain pacihcation and prosperity OF the
islands they will succeed in reaching an
understanding satisfactory to Rome, Wash
ington and the Filipino people.
Mgr. Guidi gives a summary Of the evil
dence he has collected with regard to the
selling of the friar lands, the settlement
Of rents, damages due to the church, the
conveyance OF titles and the administration
of charitable and educational trusts. He
thinks the question of the withdrawal of
the friar will be solved through the re-
organization Of the church.
The apostolic delegate says the schism
in the Roman Catholic church in the Philip
pines will be put down, although the sep
aratist movement is believed to be encou-
ragged by the peoples dislike for the friars
and their desire to have a Filipino church
not connected with the ancient regime.

Increased Grain Duties.

VIENNA, Jan. 2.-Increased duties on
grain and manufactured articles are the i'm
portant features of the new Ausgleich,
which it is learned are OF a highly protec-
Zionist character.
The details OF the higher duties will be
determined on within a fortnight. The du-
ties on both grain and manufactured artl-
Giles will be considerably increased, which
is likely to seriously affect both the United
States and Great Britain, who are respect
lively the third and second largest export
ers Of manufactured articles to Austria.
It is thought here that Great Britain will
be the greater sufferer, since the United
States is better able to protect itself by
adopting retaliatory measures.
The term of the new Ausgleisch has been
fixed at ten years, indicating that CONNER
ciaL treaties which will be based on the
new tariff agreement will be concluded for
a like period. The agreement is the result
OF a compromise on the part of both AUS
tria and Hungary. The two premiers
wished to resign, asserting that they were
unable to reach an agreement. Emperor
Francis Joseph, however, refused to con-
sent to this and insisted that the Ausgleisch
must be completed before midnight Deem

forces Of the United states from the
