coal operators in the bituminOus dis
trict of Pennsylvania, non English
speaking foreigners no longer meet
the needs of the business, and
the operators are looking in all
directions for substitutes. For this
purpose agents have been sent to
canvass England, Scotland and
Wales for good miners who are will

others, the L. S. Steetscorporation
offers work to two thousand English
speaking men to take the places of
foreigners in the ConnpllsviIle coke
district. 1t Is understood that the
company will do everything in its
power to get rid of the Italians,
Hungarians, Poles and Slavs be-
cause of the number of holidays that
they observe. While English speak

days year. the foreigners observe
about thirty-five, including Ill the

Clinton county farmers are consider

ing ofHe State forestry commission,
whereby cattle will not be allowed
to Craze upon the lands owned by
the State, says the Lock Haven Ex-
press, The State owns $4,000 acres
in Clinton County, most of which
lies between the Beech creek and
the Susquehanna river, and owners
of cattle realize that they cannot
turn their cattle loose upon their
wild land unless they wander upon
the States domain. 1t looks as
though the hundreds of cattle turn
ed loose by farmers each spring will
have to be provided with other pas

Joseph ,Pepperman, the hornet

Joseph .Pepperman, the hornet
nest prophet of Butler county, pre-
diets mild winter from the fact
that the hornets have built their
nests high in the air. The hornets
in some way get an inkling of the
brand of weather to be dealt out
during the following winter and if
the signs are for severe cold they
build on the ground where the
snow drifts cover them and protects
the larva from the cold. If they
select a high place for their nest
they prOphesy an open winter.

Before any person permits him
self to get frightened he should try
to find out if any occasion exists
for alarm or excitement. The value
Of presence of mind and cool, col
lected action is proverbial. Some
timorous individuals say there is
something in the air", something
indefinable, that warrants plunge
at the banks to withdraw money
not because it is needed for cur
ent uses but to insure its safety. Is
it safe out ofa bank as init Mani
testify, it is exposed to multiplied
risks when kept in the house or
on the derson and if locked in Il
safe that could defy burglars Gun
ming and explosive ceases to draw
interest or to strengthen the pur-
poses of circulating medium. If
a food famine were impending there
would be ground for alarm. If em-
ployment were scarce, wages poor
and Industries closing down a
thoughtful concern for the future
would be justified. Nothing of the
kind is in sight. The American
people are busy doing we'll. Nature
in it's harvests rewards them amply,
and there is not the slightest sign
of any failure in this respect.

a conservative spirit is shown, in
lending of money. Is this a reason
able cause for panic? A great ma
jority of the people do not want
to borrow money. Money has been
tight in the money markets of the
world q thousand times before, and
the difficulty in due time ad-
justed itself. Stocks ore offered at
low figures, but these who have
paid for their holdings can lay them
aside for better prices. Those who
hhose who have been specMating
on margins are in trouble, but
is this any reason why n person
with money in savings bank
should draw it out and put it, in
trunk or under the carpet" Do
fearful souls imagine that stock
gambling is the corner stone of fl
nancial stability: 1t is by keeping
money in motion that banks are
able to pay interest on deposits and
to safeguard them for the con-
venience of the public. Dep9sitors
should proceed rs usual. There is
no occasion for general diFtrust,
and if there were Blind panit.

WOMEN IN HUNTING FIELD.
Increased Number Ore of Features of
Modern Sport In England.

1t viii be generally agreed, I think,
says a writer in the Pail Mall Gazette,
that the increase Of ladies in the field
is a most remarkable feature of modern
sport
The modern hunting woman differs ma
teriaIy from her predecessor in the
field. iuasmuCh as she is no longer con-
tent to leave the sport TO the men as
soon as hounds have found their first
fox She is eager and ready to take her
place with the best OF the opposite sex.
and it may be added that there are many
ladies'. especially in LeicestershiTe, who
are able to DO this quite successfully
The side saddle has not yet been dis
carded. and probably never viii be; but
without waiting for that the general
standard of riding among hunting women
has immensely improved during the last
few decades Really good lady followers
i'm the Midlands are now so numerous as
to arouse no special comment, and it is
marvellous how we'll the majority of
them manage TO maintain their trimness
and elegance to the end OF a lengthy
day in the saddle.
In his "reminiscences. the late Mr. Elliott
told how much admiration and stir was
created by the way in which Miss Holmes
topped her fences. Nowadays her riding
would be Teckoned nothing out OF the
common. and that. I take it. shows best
of all how great an advance sp0TtswO-
men have made in this direction

COULDN'T READ BIBLE.
Strict Observance Of Sunday Law in
Boston Century Ago.

From the Boston Herald
An effort is being made to have a
quieter Sunday in Boston, and the en-
forcement Of some so-called blue laws"
is obnoxious TO many
There was a time when asperson was
not allowed to sit on the Common and
read his Bible on the Sabbath day.
The following remarkable story is
found on page 1S5 of DR.. Alexander
Blaikie's History of Presbyterianism
in New England" published in 1881:
when John Lowe came to Boston
from Scotland in June. 1873. he found
his boarding house at noon on Sabbath
too noisy 10 allow him to read his
Bible ia quietness. and he went out to
the Common and commenced TO do so
under a tree. he was forthwith visited
by a seIeCtman, who said.
'YOunS man, / cannot allow you to
stay here to-day
Why, sir? I am doing no harm;
only reading my Bible. I found my
boarding house. when I came back
from meeting, rather noisy, and ]
thought I would be quiet and do no
harm here
That may all be, and I can give
YOU a room in my house to read in,
but / cannot let YOU stay here.
He occupied the room until the hour
of worship came when he revisited the
Presbyterian meeting house in Long
lane"

The fat nature of the bottom of Ross

on which no comment has been made is

HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO EAT.
The Better 1t Tastes the Better for
Your Digestion.

Here are tidings Of great joy I;
seems that things that taste good are
more easily digested than things we don't
relish. Thank Pawlow, the experimenter
for the news
The dogs on which Pawlow tried his
theories responded nobly. He found that
under certain conditions an abundant
flow Of pure gastric juice was poured out
wheIr not "a particle OF food had entered
the stomach.
The mere mastication of food. and in
some instances, the mere sight or smell
of it was sufficient to produce a free flow
Of very active gastric juice. called by
Pawlow appetite juice
Food which was not relishcd produced
no appetite juice while food for which
the dog had an unusual liking, especially
when the animal was very hungry
caused am unusual flow Of Juice
By comparing this appetite juice with
ordinary gastric juice, That is gastric
juice produced by the presence Of food
in tine stomach, Pawiow showed that APP
petite juice was much more powerful.
These experiments are % great signif-

concluslvely thd; food which is not at
tractive in favor lacks an element most
essential for its digestion, while food that

IN THE BLUE NILE REGION.
Great Improvement in the Condition
of the People Noted.

Sir William Garstin has made journey
up the Blue Nile and returned to Cairo,
Egypt. where he has given out n state
ment OF the great improvements that
were visible in the condition Of the peo-
pie he visited last year. as compared with
their condition in 1899
At present, he says. there is an almost
continuous line of cultivation, on both
slopes OF the river from Khartoum 70 The
point where the dense forests commence
a distance of several hundred miles The
villages are numerous and prosperous
looking. The chief need Of this part Of
the Sudan IS railway communication
with KhartOum. Owing 20 the fall in the
water levels navigation Of the Blue Nile
Is impossible for about half the year. and
the people IN the south are unable to
ind q market for their agricultural pro-
duce, owing to the lack Of any means Of
transport. The province OF GeziTa, be-
tween the Blue and White Niles, immedi-
ately south OF Khartoum, contains an i'm
mense area Of magnificent land, he as
sorts which. with a system Of artificial
irrigation, should become one Of the nrst
wheat-pfoducing countries Of the world.
The only thing which initiates against
the prosperity of the region is its un-
