Missouri Has Largest Spring

The largest spring in the world is in
the Ozark region OF Southwest Nilsson
ri, on the line between Laclede and
Dallas counties, writes F. ]. Haskin in
the Pittsburg Dispatch. 1t flows many
millions of gallons of pure, cold water
daily, yelling up out of the ground
about hundred yards from project
ing cliff. 1t is about eighty-fve feet
in diameter and has been sounded to
the depth of 400 feet without finding
bottom. The water comes up so
swiftly that it is impossible for a man S
body to sink in the spring. The water
level maintains itself with exactness in
all kinds of weather, rain or drought
never making any change. Its only
variation is a sort of tidal movement,
which raises and lowers the level about
four inches from morning to evening.
The water flows from this spring
through branch a mile long to the
Niangua river. The branch is $50 feet
wide and in many places thirty to forty
feet deep. The water is so clear that
the smallest objects may be seen
through it. In some places the branch
is choked with a peculiar water weed,
which is not to be found anywhere else
in the United States. Columbia river
salmon, placed there by the govern
ment, thrive in the cold waters of this
remarkable stream. On account of its
remote location few tourists have seen
it, and very few people know of its ex-
istence

THE ECONOMIST ABROAD.
A Washington man. wishing to take
his family into the country for the
summer, crossed over to the Virginia
side of the Potomac to look at a small
farm with a view to renting it. Every
thing was to his liking, and negotia-
tions were about to be completed,
when the question of hiring also the
farmers COW came up. 1t was an ex-
cellent COW, the farmer declared, and
even after feeding her calf she would
give six quarts of milk a day.
Six quarts a day" exclaimed the
Washington man. THAT is more than
my whole family could use"
Then, suddenly observing the calf
following its mother about the pas
ture, he added;
I'll tell you what I'll do I'll hire
the small COW. She's just about our
size"

DOGS BLESSED IN

Ancient French Custom OBJ

PARIS, Nov 1.-(SpeciaD-S HUI
bert's day will be celebrated through
out France Sunday when, according
to custom dating from the ninth CEN
tury, settlers, pointers, staghounds,
bearhounds and beagles are permitted
to enter churches, where benedictions
will be pronounced invoking the pro-
lection and good will of the patron
saint for dogs of every description.
st. Hubert's day is still enthusiastic
cally cOmmemOrated by the great
sporting chatelains in La Vandee and
LIE PoitOu by assembling their dogs
in the chapels dedicated to st. HUI
bert, where the well-trained ami
mails are somlenly seated on their
hind legs in front of the image of

onicals, enunicates in Latin a prayer
beseeching that the pack may be free
form hydrophia, mango, worms,
ear disease, snake bites, wounds from
bear or stag, and from all evils or
dangers to which canine flesh is heir.
Aside from these religious cere-
monies, which are derided by large
majority of the atheistic French
sportsmen of today, the more demo-
cratic masses decorate their shooting
dogs with tricolor ribbons and take
them out in quest of stray rabbit, par
fridge or blackbird. In the evening
of st. Hubert's day there is scarcely

any town or village of France, that

AMERICAN WAYS
HAVE ADVANTAGES
English Glass Distinctions
Happily Lacking.

WASHINGTON, D. c., November L.
SpeciaD-Comparing America and
England, Commander Nicol, of the
Salvation Army, who is travelling with
Gen. Booth, found many things here
which were to the advantage of this
country.
Its your industry that forces it
self more strongly than any other
characteristic upon the foreigner
who visits the United States" said
Commaner Nicol. Work is idealized
here. England is an old country.
Leisure classes have grown up there,
which are not found in America Here
manual labor is not considered me-
NAL every one works, with the ex-
ception- of a comparatively small
number of very wealthy men. There
is a great field for the Salvation Ar
my here.
Another thing that makes the way
of the army in this country compar-
atively easy is the fact that there are
few hard and fast social rules to
break through to meet a man at close
range. The democracy of the coun-
try is a great help.
Your American press interests me
much, particularly as | have charge
of all the publications issued by the
army in London. The press in Eng
land is too conservative. You, in
America, play up the interesting facts
in story, though your methods are
too sensational at times. There is a
happy medium, however, and it is
time that England adopted that meth
