THE SIZE AND MOVE-
 MENT OF GLACIERS

Think of sections bigger than Rhode island being torn from a glacier and swept off in the ocean to be ferried 5000 miles on the bosom of the Labra- dor current until the heated waters of the Gulf stream cause them to vanish from human ken! Then can one form some idea of the. immensity of the ice area discharged from the Greenland seas each year. Thousands of miles Of valley are constantly emptying their contents into the bays and fiords of the north waters whence the tides hurry the detachments southward to cunber the wide Atlantic.
 The disposition of icebergs to turn turtle is one of their most dangerous propensities. It arises from several causes When they start out from Greenland their bottoms are heavy with the detritus gathered in their glacial period and this drops off at in tervaIs as they move south, causing their center of gravity to change and the berg to assume new positions. The scientific theory Of the formation of the vast submarine plateaus which ex- tend from Labrador to Fundy and are commonly known as the Grand Banks of Newfoundland is that they are the products7of the deposits of bergs dur ing countless ages.

FAIRBANKS IN CoGILEGE.

Young Fairbanks, by farm work and wagon making, had saved $41 by tha time he reached the age of 15 years. With it and one suit Of clothes he fravx eled to Delaware, O., where he entered Ohio Wesleyan university. He turned to account his rudimentary knowledge for carpentry by working on Stature days for local contractor for $1.25 al day.
 A few weeks after young Fa1rbanka arrived at college he fell and split his only trousers beyond immediate repair. 1t was necessary for him to borrow n pair from a fellow student, and the loan had to be continued because he was denied credit for new pair at the stores in the town. He had to send home for his mother to make him an- other pair.
 Working in college during the college year and in the harvest fields in wacssS tion he was grauuHteu frOrn the cols' lege and it's law course at 20. At 22 he was admitted to the supreme court of Ohio, and later he went to Indianapo- Iis.-Leslie's Monthly.

Report From CherbourG Says Body
 of Loomis Has Not Been Found.
 WASHINGTON, June 29.--A dis patch from Cherbourg, France, says that the report circulated that the body of the missing man Loomis, brother of American Assistant Secre- tary of State Francis B. Loomis, who disappeared from the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm H. shortly before her, arrival at Plymouth, had been washed ashore Neaa here is false.
 It is reported from Parkersburg, W. Va, that the name of the brother of Assistant Secretary of State Loomis, whose mysterious disappearance has attracted much attention, is Frederick Kent Loomis and not J Kent Loomis, as reported in the cables. Frederick Kent Loomis was manager of the SParkersburg Daily News. He was highly connected socially and in busi-' ness there. His wife has child only five weeks old and is prostrated over her husbands disappearance She has given him up as dead.

IF WOMEN SWIMMERS
 COULD ONLY REMEMBER

There a few rules which, in learn ing to swim. a woman especially ought to observe, for she Is the most likely to violate them:
 i. She should never go in the vat CT for swimming when she is fatigued. Since the late afternoon hours are the time for bathing at the seaside resorts, a woman is likely to be fatigued by the golf or bicycle riding or walking that have made up her day, and she is then not in fit condition for the ex- ertion of swimming.
 2. She should never go in swim mina within two hours after eating a heavy meal. This is a rule never to be broken, and failing to observe which almost wholly takes away from swim ming the benefits that the exercise would otherwise give. 8. She must not stay in the water a minute after she feels fatigue or chill.
 4. She should never allow herself to be dared" to swim farther than she has ever swum; over-exertdon in swimming is extremely dangerous to her health, to say nothing of the peril while in the water.
 5. She ought not to swim away from the crowd until she is an expert swimmer.
 6. She should learn not to be frightened or to lose her head if q limb becomes cramped. If 1t is raised from the water and rubbed for a min ute the pain will cease.
 '. If she ever has occasion to save anyone from drowning she can do so even if she is not an expert swimmer by remembering not to come in front of the drowning person in order to rescue her. She should approach her from the back, and seize. her firmly by both arms, near the biceps.

THE FISHERMAN
 AND THE sNEWSIE

Those who have patronized extreme ly early trains and ferries have noticed the peculiar outward bound crowd. A composite picture of that crowd surely would reveal a man quite worthy of a second glance. Being everlastingly bound seaward he might properly be rated as seaworthy. You can't meas Iire him on the water-line, because he hasn't any. He knows that water is solely for bathing and fishing in, and that the proper use merely depends upon the water being, fresh or salt, and his own mood. Instead of water line, he probably has a pipe line, to the shore end of which is firmly affixed some snug little brewery which has no objection against occasionally working overtime His hull never would cause loss of sleep to q cup-yacht designer. 1t is somewhat scow shaped, extremely broad, bluff in the bows, full in the stern, and showing considerable over hang forward and aft The depth of it's hold no man has been able to fathom
 Looking down the ear, we saw long array of almost uniformly stout men and painted baskets built on similar lines. In the heavyweight ranks, how ever, was an exceptional lean little "newsie' with an eye like snap-shut- ter. In few minutes the car was full of smoke and laugh. and the "newsie," l" good luck to him! got busy. The spark in his eye meant mischief, and hoped for the ssfiend,' but the hope was more than forlorn one. To my dismay. the eye fixed upon my yachting cap. Then it slowly travelled downward to the mustache, then lower, and began to sweat. for hanging to the watch-chain was a four -leayed shamrock between 1.-two crystals. The eye fairly gleamed upon this, then again shifted. and vain- ly was my left hand turned, for one finger bore an emerald. There was no 1lse funlxing; I was doomed, and in a moment we knew all about it.

 ST. LOUIS, June %, Charles A. Gutke. former member of the house of delegates, convicted on charge of bribery and soon to be tried on an other similar charge, has made com plete confession to Circuit Attorney Joseph w. Folk, in which he declared that former Delegate Charles F. Kelley had told him he had received S50,O0O for going to Europe when his presence in St. Louis jeopardized men of promi- hence. Kelley is also resting under one conviction and is soon to be tried in another case. Circuit Attorney Folk attaches great importance to the reve- lations which have been made by Gut Ike. He said that it opened up many new avenues of investigation and that 1t brought things to light which have not been heard of before involving the men higher up.
 { When he came out of the office of Circuit Attorney Folk, Gutke said: ''The best reparation that can make for the wrongs have done is to con- fess fully to everything in order that the public may realize what has been going on. Yielding to the pIeadings of my wife, I have determined to do all I can to atone for my sins against the public.

CAMPAIGN BUTTONS.
Fairbanks Nomination Started Stream from the Factory


 One of the biggest campaign button making concerns in the United States and probably in the world, has it's plant in Newark. Last week was a busy one in the factories, for while the plant was turning out Roosevelt buttons at the rate of a bushel or so an hour, sthere was no certainty un- til the convention at Chicago had taken formal action as to just who would be the Republican Vice-Presi- dential candidate.
 Roosevelt buttons were being ship ped by the barrel to various points throughout the country, but the but ton showing the two candidates could not be made. The heads of the but ton firm were willing to risk several thousand dollars, and even more on the chance of Roosevelt not being the candidate, and held it mighty a good risk, too. But when it came to the Vice Presidential nominee 1t was a decidedly different matter.
 So plates were got ready showing Roosevelt and Hit, Roosevelt and Fairbanks, Roosevelt and a number of others, so that no time should be lost when the convention should at last settle the question and give the button makers chance to. do busi- ness
 Within half an hour after the con yention acted, the combination Presi- dential and Vice Presidential buttons were pouring out of the machines in a steady stream. The plant can turn out 100000 buttons in one working day without any special exertfon.
 The photographic prints on cellu- Ibid are made by dozens on one sheet, and the other processes of combining the picture with the button frame are gone through with astonishing rapidity.

DEVELOPMENT OF ROGUE.
Taking Back in Big Stores Responsi- ble for New Kind of Thief.

n
 ble for New Kind of Thief.
 From the extent to which the sys- tenn of taking back merchandise is carried in Chicago stores has been the means of developing a new class of shop thieves" said the head of q re- tail goods department of one of the large stores. sThese are women who carefully price and select goods and steal them with the direct intention of bringing them back and demanding the money.
 "Of course the professional shop litter who returns goods to a store which has a duplicate article, or even sometimes to the store from which she took it, is not new. The tempta7 tion is great, as it is the only place where 100 per cent can be obtained on the goods. But there is also a class of women who, far from having any suspicion attached to them, have in- stead the prestige of general good ap- pearance, responsibility and perhaps a long shopping career in their favor.
 Perhaps from long practice they have developed faculty of unloading merchandise which may have come from have become stale or damaged upon their hands might reasonably be refused. They have also become adopts in all the little tricks of the trade, such as buying two articles of the same kind in which there is some difference in cost, exchanging the checks and price marks, and then re l turning the cheaper of the two and get ting the money back through the care { lessness of the person in charge of the best one. Success in these small lines of thieying proves too much for some I of them, and the next step is to make a small purchase and purloin two or three duplicates at the same time. Then the whole lot is returned, some I times with an altered check and some < times with the story that the check I has been lost.
 'The first is almost sure to lead to sexposure, for the alteration is seldom l cleverly made; but in the latter case Tit may go through without suspicion I If this happens it is not long before the shoplifter is getting the money on I things Of value; and though she may \ manage it very cleverly she Is even < more apt to be caught when returning I the goods than when she takes them l There is usually some little weak point in her story, or nervousness in the manner of telling it. which at first
