the same saw they use for cutting the wood. In this way the teeth of the saw are generally ruined. as they are not tempered to withstand the rough work. To avoid ruining the wood-cut- ting edge of the saw. additional cut ting teeth are attached to the opposite edge of the implement. The teeth ex- tend about one-third the length of the saw and are especially hardened to offer greater resistance to nails and other pieces of metal. When metal object is encountered the carpenter re- verses the saw and uses the metal-cut- ting teeth which are made of the same width as the wood-cutting teeth on the opposite edge. To prevent the saw bending 1t is reinforced at the end.

lens confronting him when he took charge of the engineering department. One of these was the lack of Organiza- ton and the other the labor problem. Red tape ruled everywhere and caused costly and veXatious delays: steam Shoyels were installed, but could fill the cars more quickly than the dirt could be removed, for the tracks were always blocked. Consequently, owing to lack of railroad facilities, there was seldom more than two shovels work ing at one time In the Culebra Cut The dirt was being made to fly, but the movement was spectacular rather than practical. At the rate things were going the canal would have cost many times more than the estimated cost and required a generation to complete
 Eleven steam shovels were working in the Culebra Cut. which is about sev- en miles long. and about 5000 men. two-thirds of them Jamaican negroes. were slowly going to sleep over their task.
 This state of affairs is being reme- died. Many new American dredges have been installed, additional railroad facilities have been constructed so that the loaded cars can be quickly taken away and empty cars put in their places. About 50,OOO,O0O cubic yards of earth and rock have to be removed from the divide. now known as the Culehra Cut. The steam shovels ac- compliSh an astonishing amount of dig ging in few minutes. but the qnes- ton of what to do with the dirt thus displaced will soon require a serious answer
 More important at the present how

ever, is the question of labor. As has been said, the Jamaican negroes upon whom SD many hopes were built, have been proved to be failure. recent visitor to the Canal zone says: "The commission Is unfortunate In that the Jamaica negro is the most easily ob- tained workman for common labor. He Is a happy, laughter-loving person, and he can stand the climate. but here his eulogy switches to profanity. Foremen say that he Is absolutely the laziest brute of the human kingdom. His in- genuity Is unsurpassed for prolonging q single, simple motion, such as tamp- ing drill, Into a complex series of tlme-killing processes. He thinks loaf Ing Il quarter minute worth while and does It whenever the boss is not look ing. When 1t rains he stops, or Is al lowed to stop. His other excuses for not working are innumerable and con- stantly employed. Already such work
 men have received hundreds of dollars for which they have given no value. Before the canal Is completed the amount thrown away by us on these negroes will climb to a staggering fig ure unless some reform takes place."
 It Is estimated that between 15,0O0 and 20,OOO men will be needed event. ually. but at present the commission has been testing the various kinds of obtainable labor. The need of the canal grows more urgent every day. Under the best conditions eight years probably will be necessary to complete the work. and 1t seems to have been demonstrated that a much longer pe- riod will be necessary If the conditions which have existed are to continue

Demand for More Furs.

Samuel Leon, who represents large fur interests and has charge of sup plying the trade, reports greatest de mand for fur in the history of the country.
 Tn the last three years the demand for fur in the United States has h. creased more than 200 per cent The demand is so large that it cannot be met at all, and the result has been to increase enormously the price of skins.
 "A large amount of the furs of the United States are being imported from Russia, which shows a great change, as formerly We relied in this country to a great degree on the furs of our own continent The seals have been slaughtered In recent years in large numbers, and although there seems to be. no sign of an early extinction of the animals, the skins are not So common as formerly. More and more the trade Is looking to the countries of northern Europe for their fine skins.-San Fran cisco Chronicle.

Work on the Panama Canal Is to be hastened and practical results are to be in evidence from this time on. we are told. Impatience to make the dirt fly" Is said to have been the cause of much of the troubles during the first year of the American occupation. La Dor was only secured with difficulty, for there Is a legend. more or less founded on fact, that the French left trail of corpses in their wake. With in few miles in the Culebra Cut, It Is said, 10000 men died. White men could not stand the malaria and vel low jack which like spectre of the black death lowered over the isthmus. However, II was believed that modern scientific methods could at least lower the death rate to something like the normal. and the first efforts were made in cleaning out the cities at either end of the line. and in building habitable and sanitary homes for the men who were to dig out the great ditch.
 The Canal Commission is divided Into three principal departments. Of these Chairman Theodore r. Shonts is head of the first, which Is concerned with the fiscal affairs of the commission and the purchase and delivery of supplies. The second department is headed by Charles E. Magoon, who is Governor of the Canal zone, In addition to the ad- ministration and enforcement of law, and has charge of the important work of sanitation. The latter now Is prac- tically left to the direction of Col. W. c. Gorgas, chief sanitary officer The third department has to do with the actual work of canal digging This Is the engineers department. and comes under the supervision of the chief en- gineer. John F. Stevens.
 Doctor Gorgas' sanitary squad has thus far done considerable toward giy- ing the fatal district a clean bill of health. With great regularity houses are fum! gated, all rain barrels are coy cred, all puddles or ponds treated so that mosquitoes do not breed and where necessary infected buildings are burned

teacher of her childhood. whose theory of life was reduced to a simple prlnci. pie: Learn to read well. young la dies-to enunciate distinctly, to modu- late the voice pleasingly, to interpret the words of the author with sympa- thy and understanding learn to read well, and all other virtues will follow" It Is possible that the requirement of all the virtues seems a slightly more complicated matter than it did to the old gentleman of seventy years ago. Nevertheless, the advice Is not to be laughed away, if only because 1t recalls the days when reading aloud was count ed one of the most desirable of the fine arts of life. This Is no reflection upon the art of reading as taught in these latter days; the question is not of the actual process, but of the place that reading aloud used to hold in family life. Many a grayhaired man or wom- an who never heard of round tables" and never discovered that authors had early or late styles, yet knows his Scott or Thackeray or Shakespeare as few ' In part. this is due to the fact that the field of reading now covered by young people Is much larger than It was half a century ago. A deeper cause lies in the decline of the habit of reading aloud We have no time now to read aloud, we say. Perhaps not; yet be- fore we decide, might 1t not be well to consider whether any other recreation offers more permanent pleasure or greater enrichment to the life. Books read aloud winter evenings about the fire, with the whole family sharing the interest and the discussions, will hold warmth of color which time will not dim Between their pages will lie countless happy memories-a treasure whose value will deepen through all the years to come.

Restoring Domestic Peace.

A new way of restoring domestic peace is detailed In the Buffalo Con- mercial. A man there was approached the other day by distressed looking young man with whom he had slight acquaintance, and asked to do this lit- tie kindness: My wife and I have had a fight" the unfortunate chap said, by way of explanation, "and I'm afraid to go home. I wish you'd telephone to her that you caught me just as was leaving for Albuquerque, N. M., vowing never to return, and that you persuad- cd me to finger and try to patch up diff ferences with her" The possibilities seemed so great that the man did as requested. Result: The young man and his wife are living together again as If they had just started on their honeymoon.

The Faithful White Mule.

A Georgia man has written the fol- lowing on an oak slab which marks 6 supposed grave In a meadow:
 This spot Is sacred to the memory of a faithful animal--a white mule. born ten years before the civil war, and went through that war on a rush, from Bull Run to Lees surrender. We ain't certain that the mule died here, but when last seen the faithful critter was grazing on this identical spot and trying to kick lightning-fash back to the clouds. ."-Atlanta Constitution.

While certain elderly gentlemen of athletic procllvities were disperting on the links of a New York golf club Tn competitive eldeavor to reduce records, a Chicago doctor of theology was h. weighing vigorously against the humor- ous pr. Osler. whose merry jest at the expense of 60 bObs up occasionally to plague the representative. The theolo- gian pointed out that Moses did not be- gin to preach until he was So years Of age, and from this undisputed assertion be drew the conclusion that there is no age limit until a mans vigor has gone. If any argument were permissible it might be contended that much of the great work of Moses was performed while he was yet young-young not merely from the ancient but the pres ent way of looking at years. But mo- body now takes seriously the limita- tons prescribed by pr. Osler except possibly few overwrought gentlemen who are, unhappily, devoid et the say- ing grace of humor. To calm the feel ings Of these sensitive few we may speak not only of the preaching Moses but of the elderly golfers who went forth to battle amid ''wintry blasts and hurries of snow" It is recorded that of this goodly array of competitive an- cients and honorables not enc was un- der 55, while most of them had passed the Osler age of usefulness, and several of them were over So. A merry young fellow of IS carried of one of the prizes. and a stripling of two and sey anty figured proudly in the running. And in order to accomplish the task presented it was required of these hus- ky athletes to cover ground to the ex- tent of seven miles, a mere bit of at .endant exercise which they considered hardly worth mentioning. In all likell- hood Moses thought nothing of walk ing seven miles day, even after he be- gan preaching. for he was pedestrian of large experience and was In excel lent training But the conjunction of the patriarch and the contemporary golfers, for illustrative purposes, is fe- llcitous chiefly as showing that in all ages of the worlds history decrepitude. physical and mental, is usually not So much a matter of years as of tempefd- nent and mode of life. The octogenar- Ian on the golf links and In the pulpit Is constantly with us to remind us If the humor of Dr. Osler's quips and fan, .ies
