DOM stretches into the back country
for six or eight miles, as far as the
timber reaches-a back country that
hides valleys with green trees $50
feet high and dozens of half hidden
homes were live the simple woodsmen
of the Philippines.
Eight years ago, when Orr first went
to Dalupaon, the people of that re-
gion were living in hutS built in
trees. With Orr came a small saw
mill to square the logs, shipbuilding
plant and civilization. With him
there came also people of the Taga-
log race who spoke the dominant dia-
lect of the Philippines, and they en-
deavored to teach these Bicols, which
was the name of the people who lived
in the trees, as much civilization as
they knew, and a more comfortable
way of living as they knew it.
John Orr rules his people wisely.
He knows the Filipinos, and treats
them from their point of view, rather
than from that of the white man.
When they are bad he treats them
like little children. If he knows that
the offense was committed with mis-
chievous intent he ''spanks'' them as
one would a naughty child. The Fill
plnO Will accept just punishment ana
will follow one who has administered
it wisely.
All the men who work for Orr are
paid in cash on Saturday of every
week. If they like, they can buy at
his store, and if they prefer they can
go to Pasacao or Neuva Carceres. But
the stores are always there with plen-
ty of rice and provisions, so that a
man would not starve should poverty
or famine catch the country.

HERE'S A VENUS AT LAST.

the beauty of the great statue IS still
the beauty which we all admire, de-
spite the great difference between it
and our women of to-day.
In height Miss Montague, La Milo
is five feet eight and three-fourths
inches, exactly the stature of the
marble Venus, according to estimates
by experts. Miss Montague weighs
166 pounds, but four pounds less than
the authorities believe the Venus
would have weighed had she been
living woman.
La Milo's'' neck is 13 inches, half
an inch less in circumference than
that of the statue, had the latter been
a woman of equal height with her
living prototype. Their bust measure
ments are alike, and, most remarkable
of all, 81 inches is the span of the
waist of these two contestants for SUI
premacy in the field of womanIy per-
lection.
This closeness of measurement is
perhaps one of the most noteworthy
comparisons ever made, for it proves
that the modern woman can be almost
Identical with the figure of the Miles
ian Venus, and still command admira-
ton. Alas, it also proves that mod
ern conditions cannot bring woman
to such perfection of details in her
measurements, for Miss Montague
skaters that expectancy the moment
she begins to tell how she came to
achieve such ideal lines and proper
lions.

scoTcHMAN WHO IS LORD OF
LITTLE Philippine KINGDOM.
Pleasant and Helpful Relations Sus-
tanned with the Natives, and
Everybody is Prosperous
and Happy.

With the frequent reports we read
In the papers of trouble with the Pula-
James, it is refreshing to read of more
tranquil life in the distant Philip
pines. Fourteen years ago John Orr
went to the islands, and since that
time ne has come to be autocrat of a
little kingdom, as one might say, OF
$50 square miles in extent, and num-
boring among it's subjects 500 fam
lilies This little isolated kingdom has
kept busily ON it's way, untouched by
wars, cholera, famine, politics and
rinderpest, the pests that have
seethed around it's borders, and all
these have been incidents not in the
career of an empire-maker, but the
everyday life of a matter-of-fact bust
ness man.
When Orr went to the Philippines
he was a young mechanic fresh from
a long service of apprenticeship in
the machine shops of Glasgow. Like
most of the Scotchmen from Alden to
Yokohama, he was a marine engineer.
He shipped as second engineer on a

Vanishing Rural Industries.

The gradual cessation, one after
another, of the countryside industries
is one of the principal reasons why the
peasant owner has vanished from the
land Thatching and woodcraft have
been killed BY rural councils, with
their craze for slated roofs, and by the
substitution of other materials for
timber. The oottager can no longer
even burn wood, but must buy coal,
since his fireplaces are not fashioned
for the consumption of fagots.-Lon-
don Estates Gazette.

All Chemically Pure.

The mistaken idea of few years
ago, about Alum in Baking Powders
being injurious, no longer prevails, or
scarcely exists 1t is a well estab-
lished fact by chemical analysis that
Cream of Tartar being less volatile
than Alum, when exposed to heat, is
not entirely vaporized as is the case
with Alum, but leaves residue in the
bread, which is Injurious. Alum, on
the contrary, is entirely evaporated
while performing it's function during
process of baking, leaving no atom of
injurious residuous substance. The
words Chemically Pure" enormously
used to designate Cream of Tartar
from Alum baking powder is a mis-
homer Baking Powder made of pure
Alum is as chemically pure as made
from pure cream of tartar. These
words mean nothing more nor less
than pure chemicals, and in no way
can they imply that one baking pow
der is Alum and another Cream of
Tartar. Alum has been declared to be
wholesome; an established fact. Ev-
cry large water system in the cities
along the Missouri river use Alum in
large quantities to purify the water
before pumping it into their water
mains for consumption. Cream of Tar
tar baking powder is perhaps good
enough for any one; Alum baking
powder is better, and very much
cheaper.

North Dakota Solves the AduIteration
Problem.

North Dakota seems to have found
the key to the question, How shall
we protect the people from frauds in
manufactured products?" A new law
has recently gone into effect designed
to make it impossible to deceive peo-
pie into buying inferior and adulter-
ated paint under the impression that
they are getting real paint, VIZ: pure
white lead and, linseed OIL
The North Dakota lawmakers did
not attempt to absolutely prohibit the
inferior pigments, or mixtures of
pigments. They adopted the slogan,
Let the label TELL" and then left to
the people to buy whichever they
wished.
Under this plan. if any one wishes
to buy a mixture of rock-dust, ground
quartz and other cheap elements
which are found in many paints and
so-called white leads no one can
object; for they do it with their eyes
open. But If they prefer genuine
white lead and linseed oil, they can
be sure of getting it, for none but
the genuine article can bear a label
which says pure white lead"
In all other States mixtures are of
ten sold as pure white lead which
contain little sometimes no real
white lead
1t would seem that were this same
principle applied to food, beverages
and all other prepared articles, where
deception is practiced upon the buy
er, the question would be solved. 1t
would leave us free to buy what we
pleased, but would protect us from
unwitungly buying what we did not
want -

Lady Poie-carew, Who Has Been
Called 1.-THE Modern Venus de
Milo" Finds Dangerous Rival
in Australian Girl.

Is La Milo to be found in Miss
Pansy Montague, an Australian girl,
who has just come into the limelight
of publicity, owing to her almost ex-
act reprod uction in living flesh of
the dimensions of the famous Greek
statue? So far as her features are
concerned, Lady Pole-Carew, who has
been called by her admirers the
modern Venus de Milo, has nothing
to fear in the contest for supremacy
with Miss Montague. Not only does
the lady of title more nearly realize
our twentieth century ideal of beau
ty, but she also comes closer to the
likeness of the marble statue. She is
more beautiful than the Venus, say
her millions of admirers, which is not
so much to the statues discredit.
when it is considered that Lady Pole
Carew has the advantage of life, color
and expression over the pale marble
divinity.
But in the matter of figure, Miss
Montague seems to win Her profes-
sion of poser has made it possible
for the world at large to perceive
how much she is like the statue. Lady
Pole-Carew is, on the other hand, dis
tinctly a modern woman, with the
fashionable waist instead of the am
pie proportions of the Milesian Venus
But Miss Montague boasts a waist
like Venus, and other measurements
in proportion. This is due to the fact
that she is what has come to be
called a Mature GIRL living an out
door life, adjuring corsets or any gar
ment that might Eetard the amplify-
ing of her waist line, and, generally,
going in for athletics, among which
she favors rolling a hoop.

In Pennsylvania you have made a be-
