ST. Louis Post Dispatch: (Which
ocean, writes Il reader from Edge
brook, Mo, contains the most mpor-
tant islands,"
Well, let's see. There's Cuba; that's
In the Atlantic ocean,; so is Porto
Rico; so is Santo Domingo and so is
Hayti. There are two whole repub-
lies. Newfoundland. where we get the
dogs, is in the Atlantic, and so are
the British Isles, including such WELL
known countries as England, ireland,
Scotland and Wales.
Manhattan island, on which little old
New York is located, is in the ATTAIN
tic.
The Bermuda islands. where the
onions come from and where thin
skinned Americans go to spend the
winter, are in the Atlantic.
Then there's Madagascar in the In
dian ocean. Don't overlook that; it is
one thousand miles long. And there's
Australia in the fscific, which is ALL
fred big for an island, but a shade too
small for Il continent. n there's New
Zealand, also in the Pacific. where they
lave municipal ownership and no
strikes. And there's Long Island in the
Atlantic. the site of oyster BAY and
:he home of Teddy; and there are the
Philippines. which Dewey put the
i'd on: II there's Hawaii, one OF
he Sandwich islands. where sand
wiches are unknown; and there's Juan
Fernandez in the Pacific. where Rob-
;nson Crusoe lived; and there's Sicily
IN he Mediterranean, where they
raise the biggest stiletto crop in the
world, II Corsica. nearby, where Ma
poleon was born; and there's Bornco in
The Pacific, where the Wild man was
bOrn-e-o.
And While you are looking for Islands
don't pass up Japan. It's an empire of
Islands: there are 1850 of them. Go
and count 'em for yourself.
Scarcely less renowned is our own
Chesley island. in the Mississippi river.
which is ar arm of the Atlantic ocean.

Technical Education.

We are pleased to contemplate the wonderful progress in the arts and SCI ences, in manufactures and agriculture, in commerce and finance made by America. and, especially, by the south during the past 90 years. says the Manufacturers Record That progress, however, be it remembered, is, after all, largely in natural sequence. Its foundations broaden through the cen turies of English speaking civilization. Contrasted with the progress of Japan, as demonstrated in its ability to wage war of an almost unhroken series of victories against western power, it seems to shrink bit For the Flow cry Kingdom has not only adopted the machinery and the methods of the west but las apparently improved upon them and set a new pace for civ ilization. It has, however, only proved again most naturally the value of tech nieal training, not only in building and handling modern war vessels. but also in financing a great war and maintain ing at home the integrity of its peo- pie The value of technical training was never more clearly shown. The lesson should not be lost upon the south, which has vast revenues in min erals, timber, soil, climate, water pow CT. but still vaster in its undeveloped and untrained boys and men. It can, however, never make such n record ip made unless it initiates Japan and trains its boys and men how 10 util- ixe and develop its vast stores of raw materials to the best advantage.

HAD BEEN LONG INSOLVENT
The Salmon Bank Affair Grows
 Worse and Worse.
But He'd Been Bolssered ID by Forgery.

Clinton. Mo, June 2S.-Aceording to the statements of those who have re-
 gently examined into the affairs of the
 defunct bank of Salmon & Salmon. of
 this place. the institution has been in-
 solvent since the failure. in Novem-
 Der. 1903. of George M Casey, the short horn cattle king of Henry county,
 whose paper the bank and it's owners had extensively guaranteed.
 The last state examination of the bank before the present one was made in January. 1905, just before Secretary of State Swanger succeeded Sam B. Cook in this office. This eleventh hour examination kept the incoming secre- tary of state from examining the bank until the present time.
 State Bank Examiner R NJ. Cook de- clines 10 discuss this feature of the bank failure. He is now turning over the assets of the bank 10 the receiver just appointed by the circuit court, John B. Egger. cashier of the First na- tional bank of Appleton City, Mo.
 R. M. Cook says that it his belief that the bank will pay little less than 60 cents on the dollar. Here is his statement of its condition: Assets Good notes, s506, 800; Salmon bank building, 7.50o; real estate, s75,000; total s606,000
 Liabilities-Deposits, S6S4 GOO; loans of St. Louis bank, $53, 800: loans of Kansas City banks, $l50,600; total, $SS7 .500.
 The deficit thus shown was concealed according to MT. Cook. in the banks periodical statement. Notes of the Sal mon bank were hypothecated to St Louis and Kansas City banks. Dupli- oates of the hypothecated notes were kept in the Salmon bank and entered up in the statement as assets

HISTORY OF PRINTED BOOKS

 Centuries Ago.

"The Evolution of the Printed Book from the Ancient Manuscript to the Present Day" was the subject of an interesting lecture recently by William D.

The lecturer first pointed out the antiquity of the movable type and its having been known to the Romans. Chinese and Koreans. but never applied III large way or with knowledge of us possibilities until applied by Guten- burg about 1439 Soon after this came the period of the "Humanities' lh h'. erature and the making Of eiegan. manuscript books.

Law on Women,s Hats.

It is SO seldom that one can find anything to criticise in the admirable decisions of the appellate court tha, U seems like heresy to differ from the able jurists who compose 1t even ir . matter so trivial, apparently, as the trimming of hats. The court has sol smnly declared, and thereby estab. hshed a legal precedent. that trimmers of millinery are not artists. AS a strictly legal proposition, remarks the Chicago Chronicle, this view of the matter may be eminently correct. Doubtless arguments were adduced to raise reasonable doubt in the minds of the eminent jurists. and tn such
 cases negative decision is always
 safe and usually has a solid founda-
 ton in law. From a sentimental and
 artistic standpoint, however. there Is an abundance of evidence to show that
 trimming hat as 1t should be
 trimmed is not only an art, but prop erly should be so classified as one or the fine arts. As "the apparel oft pro- claims the man." so does the hat or bonnet in multifold ways proclaim the woman. If "a man is known by the company he keeps" how much better is a woman known by the hat she wears. Indeed, one may almost read at a glance the character, the temper ament and the life history of the av- craze woman by closely observing her hat A woman's hat is in truth the index to her heart and mind. By the harmonious blending of color, the curl of feather or the droop in flower one may perceive the evidences of cul- ture, of artistic appreciation and deli cacy of taste or the utter lack Of the qualities that make women admirable. By the same tokens beauty of face and ensemble may be aceentuated or destroyed. By means of changing hats Hebe might be transformed into Medusa and vice versa, and whether or not a hat may work this transfor- nation depeLds entirely upon how it Is trimmed. F" \.

 In making and in truing up very large surfaces or in making long glue joints the No. jointer plane, 22 inches long and having a plane iron 2as inches wide, will be found very helpful, but not always necessary.

the spoke shave is used to plane and smooth out curved edges after being sawed to shape by the scroll saw or bow saw. It is to be found in a great variety of styles both in metal. as shown at A in Fig. 32 or in wood. as shown at B. For the beginner the boxwood spoke shave without metal facings will be found very much the easier to use. If kept well sharpened it is easy to control. and may be pushed from or drawn toward the operator as the grain of the wood in the curved edge which is being dressed will permit.

 For all small and close curves. and in angles which cannot be reached with the spoke shave, cabinet wood files are used.
