WEDNESDAY,. NOV 2s, 1906.

The British consul at Munich re- ports that the brewing industry of Bavaria is responsible for about one- third of the entire production of beer in the German empire. There are over 10000 brewers in Bavaria, who last year manufactured 392.402,20O gallons of beer and exported 5S,- 609,400 gallons. The production and the export was practically the same as in the preceding year. Twelve of the companies paid no dividends and the average distribution of the rest was about 6& per cent, or one-fourth per cent less than in the preceding year. In the whole of Germany there are 4S6 brewing companies, whose production is 649,S75, 100 gal Ions and whose average dividend is 75s per cent. In Munich the con- sumption of beer is still very large, though in the last seven years 1t has fallen from about 120 to about sev- en gallons per head. In the German empire it is computed that the an- nual drink bill amounts to $72s,- 975,000.

"Writing two months before the

 business of making ice; the summer

 call it nasty without compunction.
 It was nasty. It was hot and 1t was
 wet. It bred mosquitoes in vast mul-
 titudes in mosquito districts where usually mosquitoes are unknown. It
 was moldy; 1t was sticky: it was pro- tracted. It made people weary of living. When has there been a sum- mer the idiosyncracies of which have been so generally execrated? And be- sides being uncomfortable the year has been calamitous. vesuvius has spouted fire: earthquake and fire have destroyed San Francisco and done vast damage to Valparaiso.

Dexter & Co will go further, and will give with every package they sell their personal guarantee to refund the money If Dr Ames' Pleasant Specific does not cure-a reliable medicine at half price, with a guarantee that your money will be cheerfully refunded if the remedy does not cure.
 Anyone who is suffering from liver trouble, constipation, sick headache indigestion, bad taste in the mouth, biliousness, specks before the eyes. melancholy, or tired feelings, should take advantage of this offer. Messrs Dexter & Go don't know how long they will be able to sell Ames' Pleas ant Specific at half price, for the sale has been something phenomenal.

CHOOSING OUR OWN TRousLEa
Writer looks at Chronic Bothers In a
 New Way.

We are apt to quarrel with our troubles under the mistaken idea that they have been set upon us and not realizing that we have all along un. consciously been approprlating them to ourselves. Every one has a choice of troubles, and it depends largely upon himself as to the ones he shall select. This being so, let us take thought of tomorrow, that we may suffer as we choose and not hlindly.
 There is a set of married troubles, and one for bachelors only. Which will you have? Yours is the choice.
 A baby is great trouble. Is 1t well to have him? Is it wise to take him on, or will some other trouble equally formidable be better for us in the long run?
 Any amount of trouble may be caused by too much money. Shall we run the risk or not?
 A kiss has often caused no end of trouble. And 1t is likely to lead to others.
 Let us have patience and take time to make our selection The worst of it is that by the time we have learned the standing of various troubles. their nature and ways, it is too late to change. And we cannot tagin all over again. So that in the end we may be saddled with troubles that we would willingly exchange for others if we had only known about them earlier.-Tom Mason in Puck

Tn view of the phenomenal rise in
 the market price of platinum and the increased production of this metal in
 the United States, the recent report on platinum sent out by the geologi- cal survey is of exceptional interest. This report shows that early in
 March, 1905, the price of ingot plati- nun advanced from $19.50 an ounce
 to $21 an ounce. surpassing gold in value. On April 1, 1905, the price fell to $20.5O and remained firm at this quotation until February 1 of this year, when it jumped to $25 an ounce. where it remained stationary until September l, when 1t leaped to the unprecedented value of $34 an ounce. The production of plati- mum in the United States increased from 200 ounces in 1904 to SIS ounces in 1905. The rise in the price of platinum and its increased pro- duction in this country may be as- cribed to two causes-the growing demand for the metal and the re- duced yield of the Russian platinum placers, which usually furnish about 90 per cent of the worlds supply. The anxiety felt by the platinum dealers during the Japanese Russian war has not abated since the settle ment of international difficulties, but has rather increased as Russia's internal dissensions have developed. Even before the uprisings, it is said, the large Russian mines were pur- posely curtailing their production.

Women and Change.

think there is no doubt, whatever
the trend of modern life may argue
to the contrary, that women are still
conservative in their ways and tastes,
and have liking that is almost feline
for at least one corner of their en-
vironment to remain unchanged. In
their private surroundings, at all
events, few women care for change,
and to the majority a chair or table
placed in different part of the room
will prove a cause Of irritation wholly
out of proportion to the cause, says the
Woman'S Life. Women may motor,
play bridge, waltz through the small
hours and weary themselves almost to
death by endeavoring TO do several
things at once in order to keep Gin the
swim," but it is always a joy to them
to know that in their own sanctums
they will find things just natural.
