Whist as a Brain Developer

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
 If all America would develop its brains and Intelligence in the way that whist develops them we would need to fear nc Zoe. The flnesse, the clear foresight the careful calculation, the dependence upon Individual judgment the strategy taught by the game would create an army of minds that would carry victory Into the midst of warfare. Japan or any other possible foe would be baffled and helpless before such trained intelligence"
 w. L. Harris, here from Minneapolis to attend the tournament being held at the Auditorium by the American Whist League, waxed eloquent last night as the cards were being shuffied in the finals of the tournament, and discussed the game with all the enthusiasm of an expert.
 Tt Is the greatest game in the world for brains" he said. It is clean, geu- tlemanly sport. It builds the brain and teaches human nature. It teaches pa Hence coolness in action, decisiveness. hlertness. It is incomparable; 1t is grand. Every one ought to play, and every one will some day.
 And this has been the red-letter waalS In the history of whist. The array of talent here at this tournament represents the best players in the world. Masters of the. game have been pitted against each other in mental wrestling matches where you could fairly hear the brains cracking under the Titanic efforts. We cannot have too much or too good whist. Amer lea needs it. and it will do us good in all walks of life. Long live whist and long live America"

Eating Dogs in Germany.
From Harper,s Weekly.

From Harpers Weekly.
 North American Indians eat dogs be- cause they love them so; also because they are convenient, and, moreover, an eaten dog never bites. But in Germany the peaple eat dog because beef, mutton and poultry are very scarce and high.
 During the year 1906 there were slaugh- tered for food in the Kingdom of Saxony (which constitutes one thirty-sixth of the area and contains about one-thrteenth of ths population of the Empire) 1922 horses and 3796 dogs This is an increase of PA horses and 133 dogs over the year 1905. Ill all Germany during the year 1906 there were slaughtered for food 1S2,- GOO horses This is an increase of about 20,Ooo over 1905, and of about 47,00o over 1904
 Complete figures are lacking in regard to ,he' slaughter of dogs for food in the German Empire. but fragmentary sta tistics indicate that the total number was about 7O00-probably more. rather than less.
 In the city of Chemnitz alone 69s dogs were slaughtered in 1906, an increase of bS over 1905, and during the same period lc70 horses, an increase of S7 over 1905 While these two items show an increase of l75, the total number of animals slaughtered for food In that city during 1906 was 1885 less than in 1905. Saxony hlso consumed 2l4640 head of cattle Csteers, bulls and cows). 422S31 calves. lll2n4 swine 2O6OS2 sheep. and 74,247 goats These latter figures, excepting those for the goats, are all slightly lower than those for 1905.
 Horseflesh is very generally advertised in the German newspapers, especially in those in the large industrial centers, and most German cities have at least one market which makes it speciality. claiming for it d higher percentage of nourlshment than that of either beef veal, mutton or pork. Neither is 1t un usual to find advertisements of dog meat or Tor the purchase of dogs for slaughter.
 Tor is 1t possible to read the German newspapers for any length of time with out coming to the conclusion that a great many dogs are killed and eaten that do not give up their lives under official in spection News items detailing the ar rest trial. conviction and punishment by line or Imprisonment of men charged with killing and eating dogs that be- animals or cherished household pets. are not infrequent. Quite recently such an Item told how the police at Cassel. a city or Hesse-Nassau. while searching for a lost dog. for whose recovery q reward was offered. located private dog slaugh- ter house and arrested four men who were apparently making q regular business of stealing and killing dogs, several freshly Slaughtered carcasses, and evidence of the slaughter of dozens of other dops were found on the premises

Paintlnq the White House,
the Washington Post

From the Washington Post
 The White House will soon appear in q new dress of paint. A small army of painters, under the direction of Contrac- tor McCabe, one of the governments vet eran workmen, is busy on the finishing touches. When the task is finished. within A month, the historic abode of the Pres ident will seem to the eye more magnih- cent and stately.
 For more than fifteen years the White House has not undergone such thorough painting as Is now under way. Every inch of the exterior is being thoroughly burned. This novel process involves the use of torches, chisels and other devices in the work of removing from the stone the thick accumulation of paint that is now corroding.
 In order to prevent any possible deface- ment of the walls and pillars, only the most skilled laborers and painters are en- gagged in the work, and all are under ex- pert supervision.
 The work is necessarily slow and diff cult The painters find that the old paint averages about one-eighth of an inch in thickness. In previous years 1t has been customary to merely give the White House a spick- -and-span look with a few coats of paint.

The Goidfeld Syndicate Mining Cd. owns splendid Goldfield property. which in my opinion will rival any of those Goldfied claims winch are o=ing exploited today. All of the veins on the great producers in Gold field trend directly toward our property. We believe that when VIC get down with our shafts we will have as rich a property as any in the district. because we are sur. rounded by rich properties.
 It was our intention in tho first place to be. gin the sale of this stock at z5c per share. bat l said no; the small investor has had no opportunity so far of buying Gold field stock at low price. and think that this Company should let him in. for it is the small investor In almost every case that makes It possible for mining companies to begin operations and bring their property into a producing state.

 We arc going to make tremendous sue. cess of this Company and from the way the stock sales are going should say that the entire allotment of shares at the opening prices of 10c cash and i21sc on time pay. ments. woald be subscribed before Saturday night of this week.
