Where is the economy in washing a;
home?
Where do you save-in money, in
work or in results?
Did you even figure up the cost Of
the extra fire and water used in wash
ing; the soap, starch, blueing, etc, re-
quired; the value OF the time to you
that it takes to do the work at home;
the hard, back-breaking labor that IT
costs you, and the unsatisfactory re,
suits that you obtain?
Is there any economy in it when we
can save you all this and only charge
you 25c. per dozen for rough dry work?

II Cured Him.

An elderly man once consulted Sll
William Gull, the eminent physician
about stomach complaints, but there
was II formidable obstacle to diagnosis
IN the patient being deaf.
"What do you have for dinner?
roared Sir William into his right ear.
"Oh, no." was the reply; plenty of
that-two miles regularly after break
fast and two more before dinner"
"How long do you lie abed of a morn
ing?"
"Well, doctor / shall be siXty-nne
this day three weeks"
Without further parley the doctor
gave him some simple prescription. At
the door the man turned round and in
the loud, rattling tones of one very
deaf called out;
Doctor, can you cure deafness"
Sir William shook his head and made
his lips express mo"
II thought so, You've been very
kind to ME, therefore l make you
welcome to this prescription" which
he pulled from his pocket. adding, ut

Easy Marriage.

Marriage by contract is an exceeding
ly simple process. The two persons de-
sirous of being welded go to lawyer
to have the contract drawn up or OBJ.
tain a blank form at the Office of the
city clerk. Then they appear before a
notary public, justice of the peace or
any other official holding the necessary
legal authority and acknowledge the
contract. That is all there is to it, I'm
der the laws of New York they are
legally married. MS though they had
gone through Il solemn ceremony in q
big cathedral
The policy of the lawmakers of New
York has long been that of making
marriage as easy rs possible. The rest
of the country, however, is beginning
to suspect that what is needed is more
carefulness in this respect. Marriage
by contract, if extensively practiced,
seems bound to bring results not at all
desirable. There is nothing in the mere
signing OF an agreement to comport
with the seriousness of marriage. 1t
makes bigamy. miscegenation and the
marriage of those who are under the
legal age easy. Instead of tending to
lessen the number of divorces the CON
tract system undoubtedly has the eff
feet of increasing matrimonial ship
wrecks. 1t removes checks to injudi-
cous wedlock.

The stenm schooner.

The steam schooner, Il vessel whose
build and habits are peculiar to tho
Pacific. often goes to sea with her
load line over her hatch" which means
that after her hold has been crammed
with cargo a deckload of lumber is
piled halfway up the masts, so that
her skipper puts out with the water
washing green over his main deck and
an occasional comber frlsklng across
his battened matches. Along the har-
Dor front of Seattle runs the story Of
passenger who loped down to the
wharf In a hurry to get aboard a de-
parting steam schooner. He balanced
himself on the strlngpiece for an in
stant,. looked down at what little he
could see of the laden craft and hove
his gripsack down the only opening In

"Here's a cup / got in Morocco" said
the enthusiastic tourist, showing his
collection of souvenirs. You see it
has an Arabic inscription"
His friend was turning the cup Curl
ously around. AT length he remarked
dryly:
Eyes, the inscription Is Arabic all
right"
'Surew replied the returned tourist,
little miffed at the intimation of a
possible doubt.
you can read it better if you turn
the cup upside down." suggested the
friend, and, sultlng the action to the
word, he showed the tourist that the
mysterious characters were nothing
more than 1909 engraved in rough,
irregular figures on the metal.

collector. "He told me that 1t was an
Arabic inscription when he sold it to
me"
"He told you nothing more than the
truth" was the reply. You forget
that our numerals are Arabic"

collector lost interest in the souvenir

Dug From the Mines In One Year.
In view OF the many stereotyped
warnings from economists TO the Amer
lean people to go slower In the CON
sumption of wealth taken from the
mines. notably the pesslmlstlc appeal
recently voiced by j. J. Hill, the sum
mary OF mineral production in the
United states in the year 1905, just
published by the geological survey, Is
interesting.
In 1905, for the seventh time, the
total value of our mineral production
exceeded the enormous sum of $1,000
100000 The exact figures for 1905 are
$l,G23.ST7.12T rs compared with $780,
SS3.55l in 1904
AS heretofore, iron and coal are the
most important of our mineral prod
ucts. Tie value of the iron in 1905
was S3s2, 450,000 the value OF the coal,
SAG, ,750963. The fuels increased from
S5S4, ,043,23 in 1904 to $G02, ,417,217 in
1908, Il gain of S1S,433, ,9S1 or 3.16 per
cent. Anthracite coal showed an in.
crease in value of S2.904.9 $50 from S13S,-
074,020 in 1904 to $141 $4,000 In 1905.
The increase in value of the bltumi-
nous coal output over 1904 was $780,
4S0,O62, n combined increase in value
of coal of $50 ,3S5, ,942 in 1905, or 73 per
cent.
The gain of $262, ,993,573 in the total
value of our mineral production is due
to gains in both metallic and non
metallic products, the metallic prod
ucts showing an increase from $501,-
099950 in 1904 to $7O2, ,453, 1OS in 1905,
gain of $2Ol, 1853, 1853. and the nonmetal-
lie products showing an increase from
S59,3S3,6 GOA in 1904 to 1921 ,024019 in
1905, gain of $G1,640,415 To these
products should be added estimated
unspecified products, including molyb-
denum, bismuth, tungsten and other
mineral products, valued at $400,000
making the total mineral production
for 1905 of $1,G23, ,S77,127.
The production of gold increased
from 3,91O720 ounces, valued at $780,
S3564S, in 1904 to 4,265,742 ounces,
valued at SSS 1sO,711, in 1905, an in
crease of 355,013 ounces in quantity
and of $7,345,0 in value The pro-
duction of silver increased in quantity
from 55,999,S64 ounces in 1904 to &c.
101,594 ounces in 1905. gain of 101,-
73O ounces But it increased in COM
mercial value from $50. o35.37S in 1904
to $34 ,221 ,972 in 1905, gain of So
1864
If one cannot own u gold or silver
mine or exploit the coal. iron, copper
and other deposits to the tune of mil
lions year there is still chance to
pick a living out of those apparently
insignificant side products, which foot
up 100000 in value in the course of a
twelvemonth.

A New Pain Killer.

According to Birmingham newspa-

patient who has nerves strong enough
can watch a surgeon operate while un.
der its influence.
Stovane Is injected into the lumbar
region of the spinal canal and acts on
the roots of the nerves entering the
spinal cord. The injection produces u
certain amount of shock as well as oc
casional sickness and headache. How
long the effect of this anaesthetlc will

injections may be made during an op
