an ancient OF the earth to us.

A DIFFERENCE
IN LUNGS.

In the Edinburgh Uni
versity three human lungs lie
side by side. One is OF an
Eskimo and is snow white.
In life. this would be ruddy
with rich blood. Another IS
that Of a coal-miner and is
black. The other is of a town
dweller and is a dirty slate
gray, as are the lungs Of most
ecity residents. That's why
consumption thrives in cities.
One reason why SCOTS
Emulsion does so much to
keep down consumption IS
because It helps to keep the
lungs clean and supplies
them with rich, red blood. 1t
makes the lungs germ-re-
sisting. II the body is run
down and health Is at a low
ebb SCOTS Emulsion will
build it up quickly and per-
manently.

WEED AND WASTE.

About their gardens to and fro,
l see the busy people go,
or each in private orchard plot
Seeking a fruit that cometh not.
In sunny light of hopeful morns
They seek to gather grapes of thorns
And ask a nurture for their needs
From ragged, unproductive weeds.
The weeds are fair in flower and shoot
But only bear spurious fruit;
And that which on the trees they find
Is tart Of taste and harsh of rind.
There in the gardens they complain
1t is too late to SOW again
The grief of laborings misplaced,
OF barren hours and seedtime's waste
o blind In age and rash in youth,
Who have not learned this common
truth,
In earth or spirit, that alone
Is harvested which hath been sown.

Efforts of the Southern Pacific
company to stop the flow of the
waters of the Colorado into the Sal,
ton sea have proved unavailing. The
mighty stream continues to pour into
the sink in the desert, and it is said
the Southern Pacific tracks will have
at be moved once more They have
been moved once or twice already.
but the water is again encroaching up
on them. 1t will require a great dam
TO divert the river back to its old
channel, but the engineering prob
lens involved in such an undertaking.
are so great that many think it i'm
possible. Perhaps the sink is to be
filled once more and again moderate
the climate of the surrounding coun-
try. There are evidences that, when
the sink was filled in former ages, the
country was covered with verdure for
a great distance.

foreign commerce of the United States
has TO- the first time in our his
tory, passed ;he three-billion mark.
For the - months ended with August
last the total value of our exports and
imports combined (not counting the
trade with insular possessions) reach
ed $S,0iS,SlS,oOO. The exports to
foreign countries amounted to $1,759.-
41S,Ooo, and the imports from them to
about l,254,S9s, 700.
In connection with warnings such
as President Hill has been sounding
against the speculative element" in
our osperity-warnings that are al
ways in order, for there never can
be too little speculation-it is well to
consider the sound foundations of our
present extraordinary industrial and
commercial activity.
Speculation does not increase the
foreign demand for our goods. and
the steady expansion of our sales
abroad indicates a high degree of
prosperity among our principal old
world customers.
Indeed, direct testimony as to such
healthy conditions has been coming
OF late from several directions. Ger
man dispatches say that the situation
in the Teutonic labor market has not
been so favorable as now in many
years. In many industries there is an
actual scarcity of labor. Dividends
have been generally raised all along
the line, in many instances the in
crease being per cent. Increased
imports of articles of luxury are like
wise reported, while the savings banks
are increasing their deposits in Prus-
sa alone at the rate of SIPS, 700, 900
year.
At a meeting of the British associ-
ated chambers of commerce the chair
man and delegates stated that. meas
ured by every known test, the trade
Of the United Kingdom was enjoying
remarkable prosperity Railway and
bonkers' returns, shipping, the export
trade. in short everything that can be
regarded as an index, points to unu-
sually favorable conditions.
/ They say in England that American
ana German prosperity largely ac-
counts for their improved Industrial
situation 1t is equally true, of
course, that English and German
prosperity is an important factor in
| ours
