ga question which travellers often
ask each other in various parts of the
world is what is really the greatest
natural wonder on earth p 1t is easy
to answer now," says the Travel Maga-
zine, ''since the stupendous falls of the
Zambesi River have been discovered.
"David Livingstone called the main
fall the most wonderful sight l had
visited in Africa And when one inn
agines the spectacle of one of the worlds Is
mightiest rivers, two miles wide, fall
ing sheer 420 feet it is not hard to agree
with one of the greatest travellers and
missionaries that ever lived.
''Our own Niagara is only half q
mile wide and 15S feet high, so that il
figures as mere cascade in compari-
son."
This is all very well, but Niagara
still leads in the impressiveness of its
proportions. The Zambesi falls are
two miles wide, four times the width
of Niagara. In order to preserye the
relative proportions of the latter the
African falls should, therefore, be four
times its height, or 632 feet.
Its real height of 420 feet is less than
three times that of Niagara. This
changes its relative proportions decid-
edly and not in way to increase its
impreSSiVeneSS.

Use for Turpentine.

There are few housekeepers that are
not familiar with some of the numer-
GUS uses of turpentine, and as its odor
is clean and wholesome it has the adj
vantage over many remedies whose
odors are offensive.
Turpentine and soap will remove ink
stains from linen.
A few drops added to water in which
clothes are boiled will whiten them.
1t will exterminate reaches if sprin-
killed. in their haunts.
Turpentine will remove wheel grease,
pitch and tar.
A few drops on wooden cloth will
clean tan shoes nicely.
Clean gilt frames with sponge mois-
tened in turpentine
Carpets can be cleaned and odors re-
stored by going over them occasionally
with a broom dipped in warm water
in which little turpentine is added.
An equal mixture of turpentine and
linseed oil will remove white marks
from furniture caused by water.

Gathering of the Governors.

| When President Roosevelt calls to
order the opening session of the great
White House Conference, on May 13,
there will be gathered together in the
East Room of the Executive Mansion
the most notable assemblage of men in
the public eye that has ever met in the
history of the United States. The
Governors of all the States have sign
ified their intention of being present at
this Conference, and each will bring
with him three men carefully chosen
from among the learned of the respec-
tive states, to act as advisors in the
convention. Besides these Governors
and their advisors, representatives of
all the important national organiza-
tions, the welfare of which depends in
greater or less degree upon natural re-
sources, will be in attendance; and,
further, the President has invited six
special guests, for their superlative fit
ness to act as "advisors-at-large" to the
Conference. The reading public is
more or less familiar with the pre-
liminary steps that have been taken
for the coming Conference, and news
paper readers are aware of theincidents
that led up to the calling of the meet
ing; but few have considered the mag
nitude of the topics to be discussed or
the crying necessities that made the
Conference imperative.
The range of subjects to be discussed
will cover the entire program of nation
al observation. Preservation of exist
ing forests, and reforestation of lands
at present producing nothing; storage
of surplus waters; inland waterways;
irrigation; conservation of minerals
coal, iron, etc.-and the prevention Of
waste in mining; relations of water
ways to transportation, and the rela-
ton of railways to water lines of carri-
age; prevention of floods and their con-
sequent destruction of life and property;
care of the range lands of the West
their regrassing and proper utilization;
these are few of the grand divisions
of the questions to be threshed out at
the Conference.
And looking at the meeting purely
from its historical side, how many of
those who have read what the news
papers have been saying about this
Conference have realized that never
before in the country's history have
the Governors of all the states assem-
bled in convention, for any purpose
whatsoever? Considered simply as an
epoch-marking event, the Conference
will easily take rank with any assem-
bly, of public men ever held in the civil
lied world; for at this meeting the entire
Government of the United States, in
the persons of that Governments heads,
will be assembled together at one time.
If for no other reason, the public would
be interested in the Conference because
of this fact

The Lovers Parting.
(By Stephen Crane

w hOeOPAASAA OAAAN'/
A magazine editor took down a vol
ume dated 1894.
"Stephen Crane, the man Of genius,
who died in YOUTH" he said, fused to
write humorous paragraphs for me.
awfully good. I'll read it to you.
And he read this brilliant burlesque
of lovers parting:
1t was six o'clock and George Tres
ham had been spending the afternoon
with sweet Lillian Bellairs.
"Good-bye, George" she murmured,
nesting her head in the time-honored
place.
"Good-bye."
"Good-bye."
"In every parting, dearest, there is
the image of death,' George Tresham
whispered, kissing the girl passionately.
''Do you know that we may never
meet again?"
"Oh, George, darling," she cried,
clinging to him fiercely
"Who knows, my own, what may
happen ere we see each other once
more?"
ooh, George, say that you will come
back to me-back to your own little
loving Lillian! My George, the same
beautiful and brave George you have
always been"
'Trust me, Lillian, darling; trust
your George"
''Oh, George" she said, strong in the
faith which women have, 81 do trust
you. How could love you if did not?'
And she kissed him fondly.
"Then shall come again, Lillian,
my own"
"But when, George, when?" she
whispered pastionately.
"At eight this evening, darling"
"Oh, George" she walled, must it
be so long as that? So long, so long?"
He took her tenderly in his strong
arms.
Darling" he whispered, 81 will
make it 1907
And it came to pass as he had spoken.
