FOREST FIRES.
Hunters and Fishermen are Asked to Zee
Care SO as to Reduce Danger to the
Minimum Point.

Every summer and autumn large
areas OF public and private forests are
devastated by FIRE. This destruction is
universal injury. 1t not only de-
stroys valuable asset in the list of the
country's resources, but is productive of
floods. The forest is the most effective
means of preventing floods and produc-
ing more regular flow OF water for
irrigation and other useful purposes.
10 prevent the miscl1ievous forest
hres congress has enacted a law which
torbids setting fire to the woods, and
forbids leaving fires (camp fires and
others) without first extinguishing the
same.
The law provides maximum fine of
$1,000 or imprisonment for two years, or
both, If the fire is set maliciously, and
a tine OF $1,000 or imprisonment for one
year, if the fire is due to carelessness
1t also provides that the money from
these fines goes to the school funds of
the county in which the offense is CON-
mitted
Commissioner w. A. Richards of the
general land Office, has issued circulars,
warning the public against carelessness
inas1nuch as many fires start from neg
lected camp fires, and makes the follow
ing requests:
do not build larger FIRE than YOU
need.
2-Do not build your fires in dense
masses of pine leaves, duff and other
combustible material, where the FIRE is
sure to spread.
3-Do not build your fire against
large logs especially rotten logs where
it requires much more work and time
to put the fire out than you are will
ing to expend, and where you are rare
ly quite certain that the FIRE is really
and completely extinguished.
I'm windy weather and in danger
Gus places dig a fire hole and clear off
a place to secure your fire. You will
save wood and trouble.
5-Every camp fire should be complete
ly put out before leaving the camp.
6-Do not build fires to clear of
land and for other similar purposes
without informing the nearest ranger
or the supervisor, so that he may assist
you.
AS hunters, fishers and campers will
soon haunt the woods and streams, il
is hoped that newspapers everywhere
will circulate this warning and infor-

He is just plain dog, Jack of the
Kinau wharf. black dog, somewhat
ragged looking as to coat and with
swing that is most humanity seaman
like in his walk But he has a brown,
honest eye and tail that holds in its
waving all that has ever been express
ed of the virtue of friendship.
Jack of the Kinau wharf, in fact, is
a dog who has long passed the puppy
stage and has reached that age where
dogs know all, and more than all that
is written of mans frailty, and overlook
it out of their great love. For Jack of
the Kinau wharf has lived among all
manner of men-and has himself pass
ed through salad days of youth and
folly, as men do.
Jack of the Kinau wharf was a gay
dog, in those days, without the roll in
water in his blood that is the mark of
many a gay dog. 1t was in those days
that he took up his residence on the
wharf, making occasional trips to the
other islands in the Wilder steamers.
The wharf, however, was his favorite
stamping ground and, large or small,
he held the wharf for years against all
canine corners. He welcomed the
steamers when they came and speeded
them when they sailed, and he was the
sworn friend eff every man in the COM
pany-with a vagabond preference for
the deckhands and roustabouts who
shot craps under the sheds on rainy
Sundays. OF course Jack of the Kinau
wharf had his friends ashore. Every
Jack has. But the dog knew these for
fair weather. payday friends and was
faithful for many a year to his own
kind.
But time flies with all, and Jack of
the Kinau wharf grew old-and polite.
1t often happens that way. Your gay
dog ever looks out for sunny corner
to lie in as old age creeps upon him.
Jack of the Kinau wharf had put out
many wag of his tail to bear inter-
est in kindness in the vagabond, sea
dog days, and as he felt the coming on
of age he permitted one of his shore
friends to adopt him.
And so he left the sea, and lives UP
town, now, ard wears license tag as
every dog should who would not have
the fear OF the pound man to depress
his tail. But Jack still loves the sea
and the Kinau wharf. Every steamer
day he is there, renewing old friend
ships with steamboat men and making
new ones. Also. every time he visits
the wharf he is accompanied by a
strange dog that he seems to be show
ing the place to-probably recounting,
as he troIs about among the bales and
boxes. tales of the days when he was
a sad young sea dog himself, living a
life of wild adventure from steamer day
to steamer day.

The Worlds Oldest Coin.

That money, in the form Of coin.
should be comparatively recent in
vention. If we may use the word,
seems too odd to be true. But we are
reminded of the fact by the news sent
from Turkey ia Asia that German
archaeologist has just obtained The
Oldest coin in existence, which only
dates from the ninth century before
the Christian era.
It was from the mint, If the express
sion may be used of such an early
date, of an Aramean king of Schamo.
This Oldest known coin is, we believe
about twelve centuries older than The
Oldest existing book. But coins, being
made of precious metal, are enormous
~ durable. Some of the earliest and
best coins of the Mediterranean basin
are those of the old Greek colony OF
Czyzicus, on the Hellespont, and prob
ably the Oldest existing piece of metal
work Of which the date is known is
the tripod, made to celebrate the vic
tory of Plataea by the Greeks over
the Persians. The golden ball which
it supported is gone. But the tripod
itself, designed to initiate twisted ser
pents, is still kept in the mosque Of
st. Sophia at Constantinople.

How Chinese Cure Sick.

The Chinese have a curious way Of
curing their sick. When man sui
fers with serious illness, one of bis
friends, usually the dearest, performs
a strange ceremony to effect cure
For this he procures light branch
of a tree, strips off all the leaves,
with the exception Of a few at the END
and to this he fastens small mirror
of polished steel, and under this he
attaches one of the garments of tho
sufferer. Thus strangely equipped he
takes short walk in the country
throwing the branch across his shout
der while the garment is waving in
the wind.
During the time he is walking q
priest in the nearest church offers
prayers for the cure of the one who is
i'll.
The Chinese think that the garment
of the sick person will attract the IL
ness Of its master, and SO will relieve
him. This is regarded as an infallibls
means to cure those they love.

Holiday goods are moving freely,

Weather conditions have forced
jobbing and retail distribution of

but there is not sufficient moisture for
winter wheat or coke production. A
record-breaking yield of cotton is
bringing the price nearer the point at
which normal consumption may be re-

"Other manufacturing news is most
gratifying, especially regarding the
