In 1906 and 1907 l published in

a large advertisement called

vantages from the use of strong
two-bottle dyes and particularly
the lead and sulphur preparations
with the thick sediment.

that as soon as the pure food laws
went into effect. makers OF various
preparations, which | warned you

forced by the new laws to change
their labels and correct their UNI

tening on the door Of the cage. He OBJ
served with much apparent interest that
when the keeper entered the cage he
handled a bunch of keys, one Of which
he inserted in a padlock. The keeper
sometimes gave him the keys because he
was so gravely curious to examine them
one by one, and often he would strain
up against the wire to look at the pad
lock outside. for the idea seemed to dawn
upon him that 1t had something to do
with getting into or out of the cage.
One day Jacob managed to break the
wooden piece on the swing and this put
an implement into the hands of the
chimpanzee. The bit of tough hardwood
was about three feet long and it had
broken so that one end was almost a
: point. DR.. Sokolovski could scarcely be-
lieve his eyes when he saw the ape thrust
the stick outside of the wire, push the
thin end up through the staple that held
the paddock and then pry with all his
might to force 1t out. The keeper was
notified, the performance terminated and
the chimpanzee was deprived of his new
implement.
One of the peculiarities of this fellow
was his antipathy for everything human
excepting his keepers. Jacob and Rosa
would blandly extend their hands for a
cordial shake with the public while the
chimpahzee lurked behind for a good
chance to snatch off the headgear of the
visitors. Spectacles aroused his greatest
ire and he had a way of swiping them off
the nose with a sort of backhand claw that
hurt and almost stunned the victim.
DR.. Sokoloviski advises that a number
Of young men trained in geological or COM
p~arative psychology be stationed in the
native homes of these animals to make a
thorough study of them. He does not think
that the anthropoid ape was the direct an

man originated through some striking diff.
ferentation from them.
At any rate in physical structure and in
mental process they are the nearest APP
proach which the brute creation has made
to man. They are worthy of the most mi
mute study, and with the present methods
of investigation DR., Sokolovski believes
it will be possible to reveal their whole
life history and to learn just what they
are.

Difference in TemperRments.
The three animals are excellent friends,
but there are marked temperamental diff
ferences between the chimpanzee and the
o~rang-utans. The former is full of life

WESTON, Neb, Oct. SOTO the Editor
Of The Bee: The democratic party has
worked the bank guaranty plank to a
fragile in order TO catch votes.
The democratic platform reads: eve
favor a postal savings bank If the guar
anty bank cannot be secured showing
their lack Of confidence in guarantee banks
and that it is being used as a vote catcher.
The republican party favors a postal saw
ings bank and sound banking laws.
The only state where there is a law
providing that the banks must create a
bank guaranty fund is Oklahoma.
1t is in its experimental stage there.
The Oklahoma law provides that a levy
of l per cent shall be made on the average
annual deposits in the banks there"
The state of Oklahoma does not guar
antee a single deposit; deposltors must be
paid out of the accumulated guaranty
fund. II it is insufficient an additional
levy shall be made upon and against the
deposits Of 1 per cent, and this may be
continued indefinitely until all the funds
deposited in the other banks, and the
capital Of the bank exhausted. to pay
the depositors OF the insolvent bank; pro-
vided all the other banks are solvent and
don't follow suit and go broke.
The state treasurer Of Oklahoma is afraid
of the guaranty law, for he requires a
bond in double the sum of the state funds
deposited in any bank there. If the guar.
anty law is good for the depositors, why
not for the state funds? No individual de-
positor gets a bond from the bank; he
must rely on the guaranty fund"
The banking board considered it unsafe
to issue a fourth charter to a bank in a
town of 1000 population Zone bank FOR every
$50 people.) The incorporators of the new
bank commenced suit in the supreme court
and the court decided that the banking
board must issue a charter. They con-
sidcred that there were too many "mush-
room banks springing up.
The guaranty fund in Oklahoma amounts
to $3.50 .O00; the deposits in Oklahoma banks
are over $4,000, 900. The guaranty fund
for depositors amounts to ! cent on the
dollar. II you have $1,000 deposited in any
bank In Omaha and are alarmed, with
draw $40 and keep it in your pocket, and
you have the same guarantee which an

of Tho Population.
1t takes a great army Of men to keep
the church bells going in Mexico. 1t is
estimated that IA Mexico City alone
there are more than 2,CCO bell ringers
This is the number regularly employed
On days of religious celebrations the
number Is augmented, rs the ringing
Of bells must be kept up almost con
Btantly through the day and-night on
such occasions. One of the most Silk
Ing features OF Mexican life to the cas-
ual visitor is the noise Of the church
bells. Every little hamlet and many of
the ranches In the country have II or
more Catholic churches, and each is
equipped with one or more bell towers.
The great cathedral which stands near
the national palace i'll Mexico City has
sixteen of these towers.
In some towns the constant ringing
Of the church bells Is prohibited by the
local authorities. The sounding OF the
bells is permitted once or twice every
hour. Some churches toll the quarter
hours and others toll every five mill
utes. Most of the churches in Mexico
,lty ol lbt tial h"ii ~ ~
The profession OF bell ringing is
looked on by the lower classes rs being
honorable and distinguished. The bell
ringers are r~everencrt as being All ad-
junct to the clergy. The bell ringers
themselves are usually proud OF their
work. In many cases this place in Il.
church is handed down from father to
SOL, through generation after genera
ton.
The towers of the large cathedrals
are spacious, and are frequently fitted
with room which are occupied BY the
bell ringers and their families. Here,
| far above the noise OF the traffic or tue
! streets below, the faithful tollers OF the
bells live q peaceful life, seemingly an
mindful Of the crashing noise which
constantly resounds about their heads.
They are away from the other noises
pH the city, but are in the midst or the
bell %clangings, which go on all through
the days and nights.
All Of the church bell ringing in Mex
leo Is done by hand. Some of the bells
are of ponderous size and great weight.
TO operate them requires the exercise
of powerful muscles and much bodily
strength. The bell ringers are divided
into day and night shifts. They are
required to tell the hours with precl-
sion. 1t is not necessary to carry a
watch in Mexico unless Il Is travel
ing in the country, out of sound of the
church bells. At any hour, day or night,
q person can learn the time by listening
to the tolling of the bells.
Many of the bells which hang in the
church towers Of Mexico We're brought
from Spain in the early days of Span
Ish rule. Some of them contain large
amounts Of precious metals, which give
them a clear, rich tone. The bell ring
ers take great pride in their bells, II
much care and attention are given to
keeping them well Furnished and their
parts oiled and always in a state OF
good repair.
