VALUE OF cocoANUT PALM
Trees Many Uses Have Made 1t Al
most Indispensable in the
Tropics.

There Is absolutely no part OF the
cocoanut palm which Is without its
uses. The tree grows all through the
tropics, but 1t is the natives Of the
Philippines and other islands In the
Pacific who most largely depend
upon II.
First, the nut is a valuable AND al
most complete food, and the liquid
which the shell contains is a refresh
ing drink. From the husk is made
ropes, sails, netting, and the familiar
cocoanut mating. The leaves are used
for matching and make the best and
lightest roofs In existence.
The leaf ribs are formed into brooms
or else are used for fuel, while the
ashes mixed with the oil crushed from
the nut form an excellent soap. The
shells form cups and goblets.
The trunk makes excellent pillars
for house buildings, being both strong
and light. while cut into sections. and
with the pith followed out, II forms
tubs, casks and water pipes. From the
roots is made red dye, and the green

KEPT THE WIRE HUMMINo.
Great Feat of Henry Bogardus, Who

Telegrapher.

Henry Bogardus was the original
tramp telegrapher. He had Travelled
all over the world and undoubtedly
was one Of the finest operators in the
business, but he wouldn't hold down
Q Job for more than two or three
weeks. One night he wandered into
the Office Of the Atlanta Times and
asked for Job. The paper needed a
man badly and put him to work.
The chief operator got hold - the
other man on the wire and told him
he had a new man on and to work
him out. That was the day before
typewriters came into general use.
Everything was written out in long
hand. The story began coming In.
Bogardus asked for pencil. leaned
back in his chair and slowly began
