was the manner In which fire insurance
companies of the country provided for the
tremendous losses sustained, the appalling

this country and Canada in 1906 amounted
to $459. 10000, OF which $3.50 100000 was in
San Francisco. The excess loss of S179,-

you the truth, Mr.. Vice President, you
are mighty dry source Of news. You
may have a nose for news, but
doubt it; at any rate, you never give
up any. Now, when a newspaper man
is cunning for big, live news he hasn't

MANY SOURCES OF SALT.
That from Natural Springs 10 Gener.
ally Most Nearly Pure.

The purity OF salt depends upon the
source from which it Ia obtained and
the sanitary conditions under which
1t is prepared for the market. The
supply of common salt, the most in
dispensabie of all the seasoning SUBJ
stances both as relishing condiment
and a well-nigh universal food pre-
sentative, is exhaustless, yet even so
there is salt and salt, says the Pic
torial Review.
Formerly salt was obtained by evap-
Grating ocean water, a process that
left many Impurities in the residuum,
to say nothing of it's exposure to all
kinds of dirt in its shipment from sea-
ports. The Turks island or rock salt.
which is still largely used in pork
packing and in the manufacture of ice
creams, comes to the United States
in holds of vessels continually sub
jected to dirt and foul odors. Upon
its arrival It is again handled, then
packed In coarse burlap bags, permit
ting dust to sift into the salt. In this
condition it reaches the consumer.
Latterly, however, the product of
salt springs has largely taken the lead
In this country not only for table salt
but for meat packing. The annual
production from this source in the
United States reaches more than 49,
000, 900 bushels. the state of New York
In the vicinity of Syracuse furnishing
large proportion of this important
supply.

In the government service the married
man is very tenderly treated. and this
