All Statements Calculated to Hurt
Foreign Nations Are Cut Out.
In the bureau of trade relations the
consular reports are carefully read
and, when necessary, so revised as to
eliminate everything unsuitable for
publication from the standpoint of the
interests of the government, says the
Atlantic. Not infrequently report is
of such character as to make it mex
pedient to publish any portion, in
which case it is filed In toto in the
archives of the department of state for
future reference. All statements in
the reports calculated to cause adverse
criticism In a foreign country or to
bring about diplomatic representations
on the part Of another government, or
to embarrass the administration of any
executive branch of our government are
omitted from the material transmitted.
to the department Of commerce and la
Dor for publication.
Under the head of matter that is OBJ
jectionable because of its probable ef-
feet in a foreign community come
sighting illusions to any nationality or
race; adverse criticism, even implied,
of the political, social, or religious in
stitutions; disparaging statements In
regard to the enforcement of the laws;
charges Of dishonesty and inefficiency
of the officials, ETC. In short, anything
that reflects on the integrity and eff
cheney of the foreign administration,
or that might offend the sensibilities
of the people Of the country, is elimi-
mated In the state department, which
is, Of course, the best judge of the dip
lomatlc properties.

Did you ever think" said an old
printer, that we really notice only the
upper halves of the letters. The lower
halves are In many cases only the
stems, the remainders of ornamental
fourlshes which have been gradually
reduced in size and length and are now
meaningless.
Take, for instance, the heading Of
a paper. Cover up with a blank sheet
the lower half of the letters and even
If you did not know what they were
you would have no difficulty In reading
the words. Now reverse the process
and cover the upper half and If you
did not know the words 1t would be
impossible to make out the letters.
This fact is even more plainly seen in
the case Of the Roman letters used for
headlines. An L might be mistaken
for an I, but nearly all the other let
ters are so plainly indicated by the
shape of the upper half that the lines
may be read without difficulty.

Sailors Side Lines.

Every sailor has side line" he
said. "Many an old shellback makes
more out of his side line than out of

Watch 'em come aboard for long voy

and developer. He'll snapshot spouting
whales, lcebergs, porpoises, wrecks,
anything Of interest that turns up, for
such pictures sell to magazines and
newspapers, and he'll photograph his
mates at so much head. Here's a
man with S. worth of fine wool. He'll
knit 1t all up into ladies' shawls during
the voyage. With his skillful work
he'll change 1t into $50 worth of WOOL

Nature designed men and women to
live out Of odors the most Of the time
where the sun can strike their faces,
where the pure air can get to their
lungs. Just take the rose and see what
1t will do when kept away from the
sunlight. 1t may blossom after long
time, but the petals will be half grown
and the color will be faded. Then take
that rose and place 1t In the sunshine.
1t will open and bloom in all Its glory.
Well, boys and girls and old boys and
girls are much more finely organized
structures than the rose bush which
gives us these wonderful blossoms.
They grow pinched and puny when dali
ly cooped up in the shade. Even the
chickens teach the value Of sunlight

According to some curious inestiga-
tions conducted by English scientists
eldest sons tend to be criminals and
youngest sons paupers. A great many
thousand school children and many
family histories have been examined to
yield these results. First born children
were found to be, as rule. taller and
heavier, with greater ability and en-
durance than the others. This is in ac-
cordance with the popular feeling ia
many countries that the Oldest child Is
superior to the others and deserving Of
special privileges. 1t Is well-estab-
lished fact that among men of genius
an undue proportion are eldest sons

Considering the number and opulence
OF our American mlllionaires, it must
be deemed strange that the steamship
managers have been so slow In pro-
viding for them exclusive and high
priced accommodations on the ocean
flyers" Until very recently the best
cabin that money could secure differed
very little from the ordinary frst-class
quarters except perhaps in location.
The richest man in the world went to
Europe last summer in suite of two
staterooms that were no better than
the accommodations enjoyed by 200 or
5oO poorer people. The possibilities In
the way Of exclusiveness and CORE
spondingly high prices were not ,appre-
clated by the steamship designers. This
omission is In fair way Of being re-
paired by the construction of what
might be called ''sea fats on the ships
of one transatlantic line. On the
steamship Minnetonka, which arrived
at New York from London the other
day, the first Of these apartments was
exhibited. The "sea fats are located
on Saloon square," which is a broad
corridor amidships. The flats flank

quently and the air is excellent. These
flats are the latest development in
ship designing and they are for people
who can afford them. They offer every
homelike advantage that is possible on
shipboard. The servant girl question
is, of course, eliminated. 1t costs a
pretty penny to occupy one of these
flats" but the landlord does not re-
quire a lease for year. People who
have plenty of money and a desire to
escape the society of their fellow men
Will be glad to pay whatever the price
may be. 1t is pretty safe to predict,
however, that the very richest people
will not patronize the "sea flats" Such
people are ordinarily satisfied with the
same accommodations that ordinary
folks enjoy.

ELECTRIFICATION OF STEAM RAILWAYS.
By Bion r. Arnold

Previous to 1904 the officials of the steam
railways of the country had paid but little at
tention to the subject of electricity, but were
beginning to realize the inroads that were
being made upon their local traffic by the in
terurban roads This caused the more pro-
gressive ones among them to begin carefully
to investigate the claims of. the advantages of
electric traction. with the result that at that
