Wholesale Calamity.

Another gentleman with long whisk-
ers and glitter in his eye has gone
into the profitable prophecy business
and has pulled out of his box a predic-
ton that Lake Michigan will tip up
and wet Chicago twenty or thirty feet
deep, so that those with the skyscraper
habit will have to come down to their
offices in boats
This would indeed be annoying to
the people Of Chicago, not all Of whom
can swim or are the proud pOssessOrs
Of fOrty-nine cent pocket folding boats.
However, those Of them who believe
the words Of the prophet can busy
themselves building light, serviceable
arks on the tops of their houses, equip
ped with a stock of canned goods and
some ten cent magazines. Then when
the wading gets up to their necks they
can launch their banks and sail away
to Iowa or Kansas or some state that
Is dry, at least on the statute books
1t is to be hoped that the prophetic
gentleman Is not interested in some
life preserver factory.

The Latest Worlds Fair.

When the hardy adventures came
over to this country looking for gold
or congressional nominations little
did they think that in 400 brief years
we would be saving our pennies for
the purpose Of going down to look at
the spot where they set foot.
How hard it is for us to know when
we are doing a specific act whether
future generations will applaud or
present day policemen will call us
down for it!
As there were no police nor keep-off-
the-grass signs in the new world at
that time the landing was not inter-
fered with, and as a consequence we
are celebrating 1t by having one of the
finest pocket editions of a worlds fair
that have been published for some time
If the men who first set foot here
could come back they would be so sur
prised at what they would see that the
press agent would have the time of his
life making them believe their eyes.

Stove to HAND on the Wall,

A heating apparatus that is cheap,
efficient, sanitary and of light and or
namental construction is claimed nv
Professor Junkers of Dessau, Ger
many, in his novel gas stove for hang
ing on the wall The lower half Of the
stove consists simply of a corrugated
reflector, behind which is a passage
for the cold air, which rises into q Sc
ries of fiat tubes over the burners, be-
comes heated and escapes into an eX-
ternal casing surrounding the upper
half of the stove. One series of open
ings in the casing allows the heated air
to rise to the top of the room; another
series projects it forward, while the
heat passing downward IS turned by
the reflector against the floor. The gas
Is completely burned, the heat is used
to best advantage, the strong circula-
ton insuring quick and uniform warm
ing Of the room, and the products Of
combustion are led from the burners
to any convenient chimney flue. The
stove is usually suspended at q height
of twelve to twenty inches. 1t econO-
mics space, dust does not collect be
meath it, and it does not heat the wall
behind it.

Virtues In Yawninu,

Systematic yawning seems to have
proved highly successful in Austria as
a method of vocal and health culture.
DR.. Naegli advises deep yawning with
arms outstretched, thus insuring com
plete change of air in the lungs, and
at each treatment he has his patients
make six to eight yawns, each being
followed by swallowing He regards
the exercise, with deep breathing, as
the best means of strengthening the
respiratory organs and muscles, while
1t gives astonishing relief in catarrh of
the throat. For singers a like prac-
tee causes the tonsils and uvula to
retract and harden, and the clear pas
sage gives the voice greater volume
and improved quality.

Humor ono Philosophy
YIELDING TO NECESSITY.
BY DUNCAN NJ. SMITH

We're going to stay at home this year
And lead the simple life right here;
We're going to quit this pleasure race
And get acquainted with the place
Cut out the mountains and the shore.
Pa can't get passes any more.
We used to pine the winter through
And meanwhile plan what we would do.
If pa could work the x. Y. T..
We'd start the year In Tennessee.
If that was stingy, then at least
We knew he'd send US off down east.
Some years he'd have to do his best
Before he fixed us for the west
And other times they came so slow
We couldn't choose where we would GO.
However, we did not repine;
We knew he'd win on some old line
1t seems too good to have been so
That we could just climb on and go,
With not single penny due,
But just pas pull to see us through.
We worked 1t hard while 1t was there
It's tough to give them up; still we
Saw everything there was to see
We took in all the sights from Maine
To Frisco, so we can't complain;
Besides, it does no good to roar.
Pa can't get passes any more.

FORESTRY IN GERMANY.
System of Tree Planting Provides For
Future Timber Supply.

System of Tree Planting Provides For
Future Timber Supply.
The kaiser is preparing forests for
the future. Systematic cutting of tim
Der and refOresting are practiced in
Germany. The province of Lorraine
alone will furnish S,0SG,22G cubic feet
Of timber; 3, 41O, 245 cubic feet are build
ing timber and 5,5O4,340 cubic feet are
fuel wood. Lorraine also furnishes
over 100000 cubic feet of brush
wood for kindling and small willow for
basketry and 500 cubic feet Of stumps
and roots, which are carefully gathered
and used for fuel
The mountains never are entirely de
nuded of timber over any large terri
tory or area, and small strips are in
dicated for cutting by the authorities,
and thick forests are frequently thin,
ned out All the underbrush and small
branches are sold in bundles for fuel
Aside from the large amount Of tim
Der furnished by the forests Of Baden
and AlsaceLOrraine, new timber is
constantly being planted to supply the
wants of coming generations.
The forests are provided with splen-
did drives and walks, making them at
all times accessible to tourists. On
Sundays the trains in Alsace- Lorraine
and Baden are crowded with people
from the cities and towns, who spend
the day in the forests.
