times how the action of the County
Board at its last session affected the
salary of Mr.. Happie. During the
past Two years, the sheriff has been
paid salary of $4,000 per month
during the same p riod he has also
received $1,000 90 per year for board
ing prisoners, aud in addition t..
these he has received his actual ex-
penses while travelling for he C u :

troll and guide his superior

wife is not a horse. Where
two persons are we'll married,
the wife is superior to her
husband in as many respects
as he is superior to her in
others. If happiness is to be
the result of the union the
first business of the husband
is to manage himself SO as to
keep himself always his wife's
respectful friend, always her
tender lover, always her
equal partner, always her
protector. This will
necessarily stimulate the wife
to be always an admiring
friend, always an affectionate
sweetheart, always a thrifty
housewife, alwaysa confiding
ward. And this will so react
upon the husband that his
love for his wife will grow so
as to make it easy for the
husband, with all his faults,
to bear with the infrmities of
his 'one and only wife. y

The effect on the campaign is that

licans who desire to have their party

national campaigns have put republi-

IMPORT MUCH LUMBER.

Few people have the slightest con-
ception just how important a part
timber and manufactured wood
/ play in the trade between the world S
great nations, and doubtless it is
news to many to learn that the lum-
ber importations of the various coun-
tries amount to S2S5, 100000. This
is according to estimates for the
whole world compiled by DR.. Ernest
Friedrich of the German commercial
high school at Leipzig.
Notwithstanding the feet that it
finds its own supply dwindling. the
United States furnishes about 20 per
cent of the lumber imported by other
countries. Austria-Hungary furnish
es 1g per cent. Russia 6 per cent,
Canada l3 per cent. Sweden Is per
cent, Finland 10 per cent, and Nor
way and Roumania a small guam
tity.
The countries importing wood are
those on the highest economical
plane. which were themselves in earl
ier times densely wooded. but whose
forests have been denuded to a great
er or less extent to make room for
agriculture and other industries, says
Vice-Consul James l.. A. Burrell, of
Madgeburg, in report to this gov
ernment. Only 4 per cent of the
territory of Great Britain is covered
with forests. and during the year
1906 that country imported lumber
to the value of S133,561. $50. Ger
many has still 26 per cent of its ter
ritory covered by forests, but import
ed in 1906 lumber valued at S61.-
2S5,0OO. Belgium and the Neither
lands, that have but 8 per cent for
est lands. Denmark. that has per
cent. France and Switzerland. with
a small percentage, are all compelled
to import lumber.
Besides these countries, those
lands lying on the dry western side
of the sub-tropical zone lacking for
ests are forced to import wood.
Egypt imports wood and coal to the
value of about 81 6,660,000 annually:
Algeria, Tunis, Spain. Portugal with
only 3 per cent forest land). Italy.
Greece with per cent forest land).
the eastern part of Asia. British
South Africa, the western part of
Chile and Peru. the Argentine Re
public. and Australia, all poor in
wood, are dependent upon import.

THOUSANDS WANTED
TO GET THE
WORK
Especial to The Sentinel. }

Philadelphia, Sept. 1S-In re-
sponse to the announcement of John
Wanamaker that 1000 men would
be given employment demolishing
the last section of his old store
building, work on which was begun
this morning, an army of fully 5000
unemployed mechanics and laborers
assembled about the building this
morning surging about the streets
and impeding traffic to sucn an eX-
tent that the police reserves were
turned out to enable the street cars
to run.
The broad plaza on the City Hall
side of the building was blac-- with
men; Juniper street. near Chestnut,
was also packed; Chestnut street was
also packed; Thirteenth street be-
tween Chestnut and Market. was also
overrun with hundreds anxious for
employment. Even before daylight
the plaza and pavements about the
great building began to blaclSen with
workmen, and by o'clock the first
scattered groups had swelled to the
proportions OF o small army. BY s
o'clock the small army had become
a big army, which required every
available foot Of standing room. But
ii was q well-behaved crowd, the po-
lice having no difficulty in controll-
ing the work-hungry.
Soon II wcs evident to ell that only
small proportion of the men could
be given work. 1t is true that about
200 were required to start the big
job of tearing down the old building
to make room for the splendid new
structure that is to take its place. but
unfortunately the men clamoring for
work outnumbered many times the
jobs which the contractors had to
give.
Those less fortunate accepted their
failure in good part and extracted
comfort from the thought that the
army of the unemployed had been
appreciably decreased and that their
chances would be greater next time.
inen the crowd faded away slowly
and without disorder.
