A Home Industry.

An industry by which the woman liv-
ing in the country can add to the family
income, without going to any great out
lay OF capital, is the weaving OF willow
baskets. If in addition the willow wands
can be raised on the farm, she is able
10 provide another source of income,
since there is a ready sale for the willow
at the rate OF one and one quarter cents
pound unpeeled, or seven cents a
pound peeled. The rate OF production
Ifs about $500 pounds of rods to the
acre, and the willow requires little labor
either in cultivating or gathering.
The Department OF Agriculture at
Washington has prepared booklet ON
the subject, which will be sent out to
inquirers, and not only this, they will
furnish in the spring, cuttings from the
best varieties OF basket willows free to
those who desire to establish what are
known as ''holts, " that is, willow plan
tations.
There are 100 manufacturers of will
low-ware in this country, but still the
supply does not meet the full demand,
as NAV be seen from the fact that only
lately dealer in Chicago advertised in
German papers for one million willow
clothes baskets. The home grown rods
are equal to the imported ones, and un-
like most plantations, the holts WELD a
profit the first year, although OF course
the yield OF succeeding years is much
greater. There are dozen or more
varieties OF willows which grow suces-
FULLY IN this country, and all OF them
are available in the basket work.
The weaving itself is pleasant work
light and clean, and can be made profit
able even if engaged in but a portion
Of the time.

Science In the Upper Air.

Still another OF sciences unsolved
problems has been brought to light
the fact that II you get high enough in
the air the north pole is warmer than
the equator.
Professor Hergesell of Strassburg uni
versity claims that he has proved this
to be a fact by means Of balloon as
tensions made under the auspices Of
the international committee which has
been investigating the atmosphere at
varying attitudes. Unnamed balloons
with recording instruments attached
were sent up, reaching attitudes OF ten
to twelve miles.
In the tropics the temperature at this
height was 14S degrees below zero.
while In middle Europe and farth er
north at the same height the instrl-
ments only recorded sc to IS degrees
below zero.
Another theory heretofore accepted
by scientists, but which now has been
contradicted, is that the temperature
diminishes as the height increases.
The balloon ascensions are said to have
shown that the coldest temperature is
reached at heights of six to seven
miles. Above that height it has been
found that the atmosphere becomes
warmer.-Scrap Book.

dilemma. If Mr. Root should take the
public life it is considered likely that
Whitelaw Reid, now ambassador at
:he court of st. James, would be In
vited to the vacant cabinet seat Mr..
Reds successes as American repre-
sentative at several of the leading Eu-
ropean courts have given him much
prestige as diplomat.
Whatever other changes there may
De, it is regarded as almost foregone
conclusion that Frank IL. Hitchcock
will be invited into Judge Taft's cabi-
net. The post he would be most likely
to take is that of postmaster general,
now held by George Won l. Meyer.
Mr.. Hitchcock was first assistant post
master general before he undertook
The management of Judge Taft's can
Tass for the presidential nomination.
His success in this work made him the
logical man for running the campaign
for Judge Taft'S election. As for Mr..
Meyer, it is predicted that he will sue
reed George B. Cortelyou as secretary
Of the treasury.
Another new figure in the cabinet of
President Taft besides Mr.. Hitchcock
will probably be Frank b. kellogg of
Minnesota, who is slated to succeed 10
Charles J. Bonaparte's shoes as attor
ney general. AS an assistant attorney
general engaged in the prosecution of
suits against trusts Mr.. kellogg has
made an especially brilliant record
and Judge Taft is understood to feel
that he would strengthen his admins
uation greatly by having an aggres-
sive trust buster" like Mr.. Kellogg
in charge of the legal affairs OF the
government during a period which will
be crowded with important actions
against big industrial combinations.
Another new member will probably
be William Loeb, Jr., secretary to Pres
ident Roosevelt Mr.. Loeb could prob
ably have had cabinet honors before,
but he preferred to stay in his place
as the presidents right hand man.
Mr.. Roosevelt considers him invalua-
BILE, and Judge Taft shares the presi-
dents opinion as TO MT. Loeb's excep-
tional executive qualities. The secre-
tsry has had the opportunity several
times TO take business positions offer
Ing much greater financial induce
ments than his present post, but has
declined them to stay by the president.
1t is believed that he will succeed Vie
tor II. Metcalf as secretary OF the
navy.

that at a very remote period Egypt
and Nubia were inhabited by the same
race, which had persisted in Egypt
with little or no change in physical
characteristics throughout the inter
vening 6.000 years until the present
day. They had been and still were a
small people. the average height of
the men being about Eve feet three
inches at every period of their history.
Their hair was very dark brown or
black, usually wavy, but not 'woolly"
or In any sense negroid. Their heads
were long and narrow, usually ovoid
or pentagonoid or coffin shaped" as
the result of a frequent presence of a
protuberant occiput. On the whole
they shared those characteristics which
distinguished the majority of the p, -
pies fringing the Mediterranean.

people that had lived from the dawn
OF history on the fringe Of the negro
territory, there was some slight evil

Ii is generally believed that the head

A Boom for q Former HOaesdster-
Why j. Beaiamta Dtmmick

Last Fridays Scranton Tribune de-
votes in the neighborhood of a column
and a hall of its valuable space to a
whirlwind boom for conspicuous ap-
pointment of ]. Benjamin Dimmick, the
mayor of that city. 1t halls him at the
outeet as Minister Dimmick," and
then, in breezy, way gives us the pa
per's reasons for regarding it as "best
bet that President-elect Taft ought to
and will make him United States Min
lister to Switzerland when he comes into
his kingdom.
The Tribune boils the proposition
down as follows for a beginning:
-. Benjamin Dimmick, minister TO
Switzerland ~
Ii is in the cards it may, with the
advent OF the Taft administration, be
on the cards-Mayor Dimmick sand, &,
besides, it looks good.
What is the basis of the hypothesis?
Well, let's see. 1t takes some figuring.
It's quite story. Let's put II this
way:
First, the mayor likes Switzerland.

Second, the mayor knows Mr.. Tart
knows him well. But, better still
Third, Mr.. Taft knows Mayor Dim
mick-knows him well.
Fourth, Mayor Dimmick ought to get
what he wants, because:
Fifth, Mayor Dimmick is worthy of
what he wants.
And there it is in tabloid.
After this bit OF logic, the Tribune
tells MS how Mayor Dimmick has al
ready been proposed for Senator to sue
ceed Penrose how he iourneyed to
Philadelphia, invaded the lair of the
boom-busters, and caused the ''smug
and complacent non-partisan reformers"
&c sit up and take notice; how he call
ed on Governor Stuart and outlined the
legislation he desired him TO recommend
in the interests of the Anthracite region
in his next message how he impressed
his views as to a required revision oi
the school laws on the honest leaders OF
Philadelphia sentiment how he figured
in the cave-in campaign, and finally
how his name was mentioned by the
New York Sun as a guest of the recent
Psi Epsilon dinner in the Metropolis,
between those of such distinguished
people as Rev. c. b. Smith and Chester
n. Fair, Jr., in connection with which
event he is alluded to as ''the coal baron
Of Scranton"
The article closes as follows:
Mayor Dimmick is a graduate OF
Yale his brother who died, was a class.
mate OF the next president, who will
have the doling out OF the honors. Also,
the mayor himself can shake hands
with President TAFT and need not say
".You remember me?'' They are friends

mayor has been there, spent Summer
there and fell in love with the country,
He is actually "Swiss-American,' as
his speeches have frequently shown, ar

ed, scholarly, capable man. OF course
We don't know that the mayor wants IL
go to Switzerland, or that Mr.. Taf1
wants him to go to Switzerland. Maybe
ne would rather be governor. But it''

warning against the wasteful methods

sumption of coal. NO comment is
