Senator Beveridge of Indiana. who introduced the original meat inspec- tion measure in congress, urged 1T his bill that the cost of the inspection should be paid by the packers and that each label should bear the date of inspection. After a long contest, both ot these provisions were eiimi- mated from tho measure. Rather than have the bill fail of enactment, the senate agreed to the amendments proposed in the house of representa- tives. The cost of the inspection between $3.00O,000 and $4,0O0,0OO a year-was saddled on the govern ment and it was decided that the date of the inspection need not be placed on the package or can con- taining the product. Senator Bever- idge has determined to press an amendment to the law, providing that the cost of the inspection shall be borne by the packers and that each package or can containing meal products shall bear the date of in- spection.. He proposes to introduce his bill amending the law as soon a possible after congress shall convene and urge it insistently to a vote.

There is very little doubt that tn next session of congress will see u passage of ship subsidy bill. One of the strongest indications in this line has come from the session of the trans-Mississippi congress before which Secretary Root has just de- livered notable address. in which he spoke urgently in favor of the shipping subsidy as the one thing essential to build up the trade of the United States with South America. This is the first time that the admin istration has ever come out squarely in favor of such a bill. There is bill now pending before congress that is said to meet the requirements of the case, and 1t is interesting to see just what the appropriation will in- volve. This bill is designed primarily to help the mail steamship service. but 1t will of course furnish 8 series of steamship lines by which Ameri- can goods can safely and regularly be transported abroad. It will in- volve the expenditure In the first year of s1,70e,500 for a mail service and ultimately an expenditure of $2,- 932,000 per annum. The ships to earn this larger subsidy do not now exist in the United States, but it is believed that to earn the bonus they will be built.

 Made Brave Effort at Rescue.


 Editor of WeIland (Ont.) Tribune
 Made Brave Effort at Rescue.
 NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y., Nov. 27.-- An unknown man was swept over the Horseshoe falls in small boat after a daring attempt had been made to save him. An employee of the Ontario Power company first saw the little craft com ing down the river in the grasp of the swift current. The occupant, a man, was standing up, frantically waving his hands.
 Two rowboats started down the Chip. pewa river toward the Niagara to at tempt rescue at the mouth of the small stream. The rescuers went far beyond what Is considered the danger line. but cross current carried the unfortunate man away from them to- ward Goat island. and in few min utes he was carried over the Horseshoe falls.
 The would be rescuers were by this time in perilous position, and it was with great difficulty that they succeed ed in reaching shore. They were John Rapeujie, an employee of the Canadian Power company; Detective Greenwood and Louis B. Dudd, editor of the Vel land Tribune, in one boat and George Gray and Thomas Flommerfelt in the second.

TUESDAY, NOV 27, 1906.

Germany and Japan have made good use of the idea, first suggested in the United States, of equipping ships with products for sale abroad and sending the vessels to the ports where trade might be developed. In that way, according to a report trans mitted by Consul General Michael, Japan got her first order from the Argentine Republic, with which she now has considerable trade. .-

Human Decoy Shot For Duck.

PORT JERvIS, N. r., Nov. 27.-Si- las Sampson, colored, is a mighty duck hunter. A splendid swimmer, he is al ways his own duck decoy. He draws over his head the skin of duck, bill and all, in which he has pierced eye holes. Then, making a noise like a drake, he swims noiselessly to the flock nearest the shore, grabs two ducks at least by the legs and swims ashore with them. Sampson, with a duck in each hand, was returning when Amos Clifford and Charles Chris tianstein, hunting ducks, saw Samp- sons duck mask and let fly at it. They were mortified when they found they had wounded the man slightly in the face

A Menace to womankind.

UTICA, N. Y., Nov. 27.--When Miss Louise I. Hebson, the pretty trained nurse of twenty-two who shot and wounded Frank r. Nagle, book agent. was brought into the city court for examination she was accompanied by Dr. Willis k. Ford, one of the most prominent physicians in this city. Act ing as the young woman's spokesman, Dr. Ford caused sensation by de- claring that the shooting was not the result of nasty passion, but that Miss Hebson, wishing to rid the world of a menace to womankind, had consulted the Bible and felt actuated by what she read there.

The common people fear above everything the hospital, says the Paris Eclair. They are badly received and questions are put to them in a loud voice in the presence of patients, stu dents and visitors. The modesty of womsn is not respected. The poor have the right to demand when they are under examination the observa- ton Of the elementary laws of mod esty; they have also the right to de- mant of doctors professional secrecy

The finger pillory is still preserved
carefully in the parish church of st.
Helen Ashbyde-laZouch and is thus
described: AN ancient and rather sin
gular curiosity is a finger pillory. This
instrument seems to have been used
for the punishment of disorderly per-
sons during divine service. It consists
of two upright posts about three feet
high, which support a beam Of nearly
the same length, in which are bored
holes of various dimensions, cut first
horizontally, then perpendicularly, In
order that the first joint of the finger
may be inserted and the finger retained
in an angular form. The culprit Is then
secured by bringing down over the
holes another beam which Is attached
by hinge at the end to one Of the
posts and fastened at the other by q
lock. London Academy.

Arsenic has been known from very
early times as deadly poison. 1t is
believed to have been the means en-
ployed by Nero to remove his enemies,
and there Is little doubt that it was
also known to and employed by Mes
salina and Agrippina. During the mid
die ages it was extensively used as a
secret poison, being sold by alchemists
and poisoners Of Italy under the name
Of widows powders" or succession
powders" Its properties were definite
ly ascertained and made public by
Brandt in 1873. The plant from which
asafetida is produced is a native of
Persia, Afghanistan and northern
India. In all these countries the In
habitants use 1t as a seasoning for
their meat and vegetables, much as red
pepper is employed by the natives of
Mexico and South American states.
The odor Is not deemed by them in the
least offensive.

A recent English traveller In China
describes some remarkable examples
Of sounding stones, or "stone gongs, "
which he saw at Chufu, the birthplace
and burial place of Confucius. One Of
the stones, which are composed Of a
graytsh oolitic limestone, has been
shaped into cover for an incense dish
placed In front Of the tomb of the
grandson Of Confucius When struck
with q stick or with the knuckles Il
rings like bronze, and the sound is so
distinct that 1t is difficult to believe
without inspection that the object is
not really composed Of metal. A cor
respondent of Nature describes a
bridge at Corick, in County Mayo, Ire
land, which is locally known as the
musical bridge" because the stones
forming the coping give out a musical
note when struck.

pampered stomachs.

Even though 1t takes pork four hours
to leave the stomach and six more to
be dissolved and absorbed in the small
intestine, what does that matter SO
long as 1t Is completely assimilated by
the end Of that time, as it is In 80 per
cent of all digestive canals? 1t Is the
slowest but one Of the surest foods
that we have to give of all its energy
to the body. Its very slowness Is what
gives 1t its splendid staying powers for
hard work, whether muscular or men,
tai. AS a matter Of fact | have seer
more cases Of dyspepsia cured by the
use Of breakfast bacon than by any
kind of drug or restricted diet. An
adult alimentary canal which cannot
digest bacon or ham is not to be re-
garded as healthy, and, instead of hu-
moring and giving In to a weak diges-
ton. it should be braced up and, under
skilled supervision, educated to take
what is given 1t and make no fuss
Stomachs can be spoiled by giving
them too little to do almost as easily as
by giving them too much, A healthy
stomach fit to cope with the emergen-
cies of life must be able to digest not
only that which is digestible, but much
that is difficult Of digestion, and this is
the standard which should be aimed at
in dietetic therapeutic. Gods Hutch

1t Is not an uncommon thing for peo-
pie to carry needles, pins, bullets and
bits of steel around with them for half
lifetime, but no one can be found
who would be willing voluntarily to
undertake such a burden. And yet
there are instances where articles
which might seem to be Of a most dan
gerous character have been carried In
the body for years. A man, In repair
ing a building, fell through a window,
breaking the glass and severely cutting
one Of his arms. The wound was care
fully and antiseptically dressed, and
the man went about his business.
Three years later he called upon the
doctor who had attended him and com
planned of a boil on his wrist. The
physician casually mentioned the in
jury which he had sustained and asked
him If he suffered any Inconvenience
from it. He answered, mo, not much"
but said that at times there was a Pc
culiar sensation between the elbow
and shoulder. Upon examination the
doctor found a long splinter of glass
just ready to prick through the skin at
a point several inches above the place
where it had originally entered. The
glass was drawn out, the wound prop
erly dressed, and the man recovered,
thereafter being entirely free from the
annoying sharp pains to which he had
for years been subject.

africans never sneeze," said globe
trotter, land their descendants, the
colored people Of our own land, If they
are pure blooded, don't sneeze either
A cold, damp atmospheric condition is
the cause of sneezing. Since it is prac-
tically never cold and damp In Africa,
no man sneezes there whether he be
native or foreigner. The natives, be-
cause they have never sneezed in Afr1-
ca, can't sneeze when they leave Afri-
ca-for the same reason perhaps that
one who has never been In the water
can't swim when he falls overheard.
At any rate. be the reason what 1t
may, the fact remains that the Afri-

way, never rends the air with a kee-
