profita Of The packer.-

There has been great deal OF dis
appointment because the Garfield re-
port shows that the profits of the
packing industry only amount to
about two per cent OF the volume OF
business transacted. There is no
doubt. however, that the report is cor
rect.
The census reports compiled by the
government In 1900, before the aglta.
ton regarding the beef trust" began,
throw considerable light on this ques-
ton. 1t appears from the census that
the packing industry is conducted on
smaller margin of gross profit than
any other industry In America. The
gross margin OF profit of 81 -four and
grlst mills in Illinois, In the census
year, was nearly seven per cent on
the volume of business. The gross
margin of fifty.one wholesale slaugh.
tering and meat packing establish
ments in Illinois was only about one
third as large, or little more than
two per cent on the volume of busi-
ness.
The millers have not been accused
OF being In trust" and combina-
lions would seem impossible in a bust
ness where there are several thousand
mills In the United States competing
actively for the -four trade, but II APP
pears that the gross profits OF the mill.
ers are larger than the gross profits
Of the packers, 1t may turn out that
the agitation regarding the packing
industry will show the same result as
the devil found in shearing the pig:

ation of Fat.
Mrs. John Jacob Aston labors under
continual terror of becoming too stout
AS yet her figure has not noticeably
lost any Of its grace, but there is a
haunting fear that the curves are be-.
coming too curved. Mrs. Astor tells
of a visit she once paid to a Partisan
tailor in company with friend who
had taken on numerous superfuous
pounds. The stout woman was having
a gown fitted and complained it was
so tight she could not sit down. The
tailor, who understood American
slang, blandly inquired: Does
madame prefer a gown in which she
can stand up and look smart or one in
which she can sit down and look
sloppy" Madame ordered the tight
fitting costume, Of course, but Mrs.
Aston lives in terror of duplicating the
experience which befell her friend.

Original of "sindbad.v

That oriental tale of Sindbad the
sailor, is believed to owe a good deal
to the legend of st. Brendan, The
Irish saint According to the legend,
st. Brendan sailed the ocean for sew
en- years in search of the island that
had once been Adams Eden. During
that time he regularly visited the
island of Sheep, where the sheep are
as large as oxen; the island of Birds,
that are really fallen angels, and an
other island, which is really big
fish named Jascon, trying to get his
tail into his mouth. ST. Brendan used
to encamp on the fish on Easter day
and go on to the birds on Easter Mon
day. He found the Eden island at
last, but no one has seen it since,
though it appeared on seventeenth
century maps and in an eighteenth
century treaty between Spain and
Portugal. Probably Irish monks took
this legends with them TO the east in
the ninth century.
