Finland Must Be a Good Place
If You Need the Money

Denmark claims that there is not a
single person in her domain who can
not read and write. On the northeast
coast of New Guinea the island of
Kutaba, surrounded by a wall of coral
800 feet high on one side and from so
to 100 feet on the other, maintains
10 villages of natives, to whom war,
crime and poverty have been un-
known since the beginning of their
traditions. The most peaceful and
comfortable community in Europe Is
the commune of the Canton Vaud. in
Switzerland. Nearly every one is well
of, and there is no paupers. Finland
is arealm whose inhabitants are re-
markable for their inviolate integri-
ty. There are no banks and no safe
deposits, for no such security is es.
s%ential. You may leave your luggage
anywhere for any length of time, and
be quite sure of finding it untouched
when you return, and your purse full
of money would be Just as secure un-
der similar circumstances. The Firms
place their money and valuables in
holes in the ground, and cover them
with a big leaf. Such treasure is
sacredly respected by all who pass 1t,
but in the rare event of a man wish
ing to borrow of his neighbor during
his absence he will take only the
smallest sum he requires, and place
a message in the hole telling Of his
urgent need, and promising to repay
the amount on a specified date. And
he will invariably keep his word, for
the Finn is invincible in his in~depend-
ence.
Agneta Park. near Delft, in Hol-
land, is another Utopia example. A
tract of 10 acres has upon 1t $50
houses, each with its little garden and
with certain common buildings and
common grounds. The houses are oc-
cupied by the employees of a great dis
tilling company, who form a corpora
ton which owns the park. Each
member owns shares in the corpora
ton and pays rent for his house. The
surplus, after all expenses have been
paid. m back to him as a divi-
dend. If he wishes to go away or If
he dies his shares are bought up by
the corporation and sold to the man
who takes his place.

the waterspout heavy, dark masses of
clouds were cen rising to the east
ward in the shape of mountains, and
a heavy downpour of rain was exp
rienced. Later a fierce squat fol.
lowed, and the waterspout churned
the sea up like the propeller of a
steamer, and made a noise like that
produced by a waterfall. The second
waterspout passed within 200 or 800
yards of the Gaelic. 1t was a much
larger waterspout than the first one,
and made more noise and churned up
the sea with great violence. The wind
at that time was very strong, with a
rough sea and fierce squalls, and rain
prevailing at intervals.

Cheap Ore Shelter.

Vancouver, b. c.. April 2O.-Tht
p~racticability of smelling ore by an
electrical process, which, when car
ried into effect, will mean great things

the satisfaction Of the government
commission, which recently sent tc
Europe to make an investigation and
inquiry. Extensive investigation was
made, and at Livet, in Southeastern

1t is understood that the cost OF

EXCURSIONS.

There has been a constant gain in the
attendance at Chevy Chase lake this year.
The cool evenings of the early week have
been just right for dancing, and at 8
o'clock, when the regular evening con-
certs terminate all roads lead to the pa
vilion, where one may dance to the splen-
did music of the L. S. Marine Band until
IL. The motion pictures in the rustic
theater are popular, a new series being
installed weekly. Bowling, shooting and
other amusements are also patronized.
A delightful and inexpensive outing is
afforded by the special weekend excur-
sions of the Norfolk and Washington
Steamboat Company to Old Point Com
fort and Norfolk, giving the entire Sun
day at Fortress Monroe or nearby places
with two nights aboard the steamers
Ilckets good from Saturday night to
Monday morning are obtainable at a re-
ouced rate. Daily connections are ma de
at Norfolk with steamers for New York
and Boston. The daily hour of sailing is
G:3O.
Those who are not so fortunate as to be
able to get away from the city this hot
weather look forward with much pleasure
to the Indian Head trips on the steamer
Charles Manchester Thursday. Friday and
Saturday evenings of each week. Those
who are fond of dancing may stop off at
Marshall Hall, as the boat stops there
both going and returning from Indian
Head. Prof Schroeders band plays the
latest concert music on the down trip and
Steamer Charles Manchester leaves every
Thursday, Friday and Saturday at $50
pm, in addition to regular trips at 10
a. m. and 2:3O pm.

Best Time to Cure Dyspepsia.

The warm weather months are the best
in the whole year for the treatment of
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. The out
door life, the fruit and berries which are
so literally eaten, all help to restore tone
to the digestive system.
If the food you eat gives you pain and
discomfort and does not digest readily a
Mi-o-na tablet taken after each meal will
soon bring relief and complete freedom
from all stomach troubles Mi-o-na
SootheS and heals the inffamed stomach
lining, mingles with the food, aids diges-
ton, gives tone and strength to the whole
system and makes complete and perma-
nent cures in the worst cases of stomach
troubles.
If by chance M-o-na should not give
you perfect satisfaction and do all that Is
claimed for it, return the empty box to
Henry Evans and he will refund your
money without question. You are the sole
Judge. SOC. box contains two weeks
treatment, and this guarantee covers two
boxes.
Take advantage of the summer, the best
time in the whole year to regain good
health and to enjoy 1t.

BEYOND EXPERIMENTAL STAGE.
City Gardens a Source of Profit to
Those Interested.

Several of the promoters of the city gar
dens have been given an ocular demon
stfation of the fact that these institutions
have passed the experimental stage. Su-
perintendent Charles B. Bartlett collected
yesterday a large market basket of the
vegetables that had been grown by the
city's amateur farmers. In the basket
were a large head of cabbage, tomatoes
that would make the mouth of an epicure
water, cucumbers that were luscious, beets
and potatoes, summer squash, and other
edibles that would have made proud the
most expert market gardener. All the
vegetables were grown on vacant lots, by
persons to whom the gardens were loaned
without cost, and from seeds supplied with
out cost by the City Gardens Association.
Mr. Bartlett says the basket gathered by
him yesterday a fair sample of the
output and that the production is large.
