TURKEY NEEDS FLOUR.
Merchants Invite Americans to Send
Samples.

Consul E. L. Harris of Smyrna,
calls attention IN the following report
to the immediate market in Turkey
for American flour
Local mills have hitherto supplied
the city of Smyrna, as we'll as the
neighboring town. of the littoral and
, the islands Of the Archipelago, with
flour. Owing, however, to the wheat
famine the export of the grain from
one region to another has been pro-
hibted, and as soon as the millers'
present stock of grain is exhausted
large quantities of foreign flour will
have to be imported.
The sample of flour forwarded
marked mo. l" sold on November
at 9.614 cents per oke of 2.S2 pounds
and those marked "5" and 20" at
sos and 1921 cents, respectively. the
two latter qualities containing a
small quantity of crushed white
maize
American millers wishing to OBJ
tain share of this commerce should
send samples Immediately 10 this Of
flee for distribution among interest
ed parties. The flour should be put
up in sacks Of 165 pounds and prices
made c. /. (. Smyrna, or f. o. b. New
York.
About 1000 sacks are daily requir-
ed for this city and at least the same
number for the islands of the Arch
ipelago and the other places former

that at Constantinople the duty on
imported wheat, IL per cent ad va
lorem, has been removed, and that
on flour reduced to per cent, and
that a similar measure is contem-
plated for the provinces OF Turkey

rh. Slow. pott.rlna Gordon setter.

Years ago tae Gordon setter w2s
quite a favorite and much In use by
sportsmen Of this country. In later
years, however, this really good dog
was displaced in greater part by the
pointer and English setter. The Cor
don. says Ed F. Haberleln in Dogdom,
is the largest and heaviest Of all bird
dogs, more clumsy and usually slow.
Where most hunting is done In wood
land and thickets and slow working
dog is needed so as not to get lost
almost continually he fills the bill well
works close to gun, has good nose, Is
steady on point and If properly trained
a very good retriever from land and
water. The Gordon Is easily trained
and retains his training well, Is also
Of good pleasant disposition and an ad-
mlrable companion. At this age, how
ever, when 80 very much stress Is laid
on speed and wide range, the Gordon
is not 'in IT, because he is slow,

ODD WAY TO COOL WATER.

Nicaraguan Woman Has Process That
Involves Severe Labor.
When native woman of one of the
broiling hot little villages of interior
Nicaragua wants to cool some water
she sets about it in way little cal
culated to cool herself The average
native woman looks frail and listless,
but there is no suspicion of listless-
ness about her process of water cool
ing.
She files a half-gallon earthenware
jar about two-thirds full. The jar is
made Of baked clay and, not being
glazed, is practically porous, so that
it soon becomes moist on the outside.
BY means of two leathern straps firm
ly attached to the neck of the jar the
woman causes the same to rotate
swiftly in the air. The mouth is wide
open, but centrifugal action keeps the
water from flying out. The endurance
exhibited by the woman is marvellous:
When the operator thinks the water
is sufficiently cooled she stops the
movement by dexterous twist of her
wrist and hands the jar to the man
who has been waiting. 1t is said by
this process tepid water can be re-
duced to the temperature of a cool
mountain spring.

SCULPTURE OF THE INDIAN.
Only Three Specimens OF Los Rock
Carving Have Been Found,

Only Three Specimens OF Los Rock
Carving Have Been Found.
One of the three known examples in
the United States Of the famous In
dian sculpture on two of the inn
mense rocks which form the great
falls of the Connecticut river at Bel
lows Falls has been entirely obliter-
ated, not a trace Of the marking which
recorded some important event in the
history of the aborigines being left
The sculpture was favorite subject
of discussion for antiquarians and de-
veloped much controversy as to the
manner and time in which it was
made. When first discovered it con-
sisted of a group Of sixteen or eigh-
teen variously ornamented heads
plainly cut into the rocks The main
piece of work was shown on a fiat
space about fifteen feet wide and six
feet high, and consisted of four heads
each surmounted with pair of rays
and numerous heads without any dec
Grafton On the other lock was one
large head with at least eight rays,
this head being fourteen inches across
at the forehead.
There may have been originally also
an inscription, but if SO it had become
obliterated by the action of the water
years ago. The markings were sup
posed to have represented victory
at or near Bellows Falls by four bands
and their chiefs, under one principal
chief. The fact that the action OF the
water has removed what was discover
ed on the rocks hundred years ago
indicates to not a few that much more
of the record must have disappeared
previously.

Stuck lin for Him.

The following dialogue was heard
between two friends few days ago:
81 say, Johnson, met your old
friend George Knight yesterday"
ooh, you don't say SO, Alfred. Nice
chap, isn't he; very affectionate?" an
swered Johnson.
Eyes, and very thoughtful of what
he is talking about. He told me that
you wern't fit to live with the gorillas
at the Zoo Gardens; but, mind. you,
johnson, stuck UP for you, Johnson"
said Alfred.
Thank you, old chap, you're a
brick. What did you say?" said john
son.
81 told him you WERE" said Alfred.
Johnson walked away, his heart too
full to say another word.
