tROW PROTECTION
WORKS IN GERMANY
Emphat!Cally DEMONSTRATED In
the Progress Of That
Country.

Baron Speck Won Sternburg, German
Ambassador TO the United States, de-
livered a most interesting address
Saturday before the Chamber of Com
merce at Tampa, Fla, his subject be-
ing "Germany's Economic Strength"
He made the matter exceedingly appro
pirate to the time and occasion by
showing Il & connection between this
enormous trade Development. A large
part of Baron Won SiernLurG's talk
was a presentation of statistics sAow =
ing how Germany had grown from p
position of economic weakness fifty
years ago to the present strength and
prosperity. 1t appears from this ex-
hibit that while international trade
has had some effect the greater share
of this increase in wealth and in
economic power has come from pro-
scouting the opportunities found at
home. Agricultural mining and in
dustrial developments has been extra
ordinary, until to-day Germany is in
an enviable position.
In a sort of summing up Baron Won
Sternburg said: THE total produc-
ton of wealth according to the latest
estimates, represents enormous sums.
Agricultural productions are estimated
at 3.6 billion dollars annually gross,
and the industrial productions figured
at Sc billion dollars gross per annum
Approximately four-fifths of this out
put is disposed OF in the internal
markets. Consequently the German
economic syetem ranks among the
most efficient of the world, agricul-
turally as well as industrially. 1t is
in splendid condition, and sound foun-
dations." These conclusions harmon
lie with facts and figures furnished
by impartial authority. Germany has
made amazing advancement until she
she has a foreign trade second only to
, that of Great Britain among Europ-
can nations. And this foreign trade,
as the German Ambassador points out
is simultaneous with unequaled do
nestle progress.
How has Germany done it? The
answer is to be looked for in the
same direction as in the United Sta
ties which has become the industrial
and commercial marvel of the world
Germany has Protected its home in
terests, and she has done this so
scientifically and effectively that the
nation has gone forward by leaps and
bounds. The secret of true and last
ing prosperity is to make the re-
sources.-Troy Times"

Why Paper Decays.

The brownish spots which appear in
old books are really due TO the rava-
ges Of bacteria says Popular mechan-
les. The tiny destroyer is es-
pecially fond of starchy ma
terial and its propagation is
promoted by damp. 1t has been
we'll understood that damp produced
discoloration and decay but the share
of the microbe in the operation has
not hitherto been suspected. Tiny
fungus or mold is responsible for gray
and black marks upon old PAPERS. In
spotting the surface the fungus helps
TO break down the fabric and hasten
the process of its obstruction.

SacredneSS of Letters.

A problem which must be nearly as
old as writing itself is whether hus-
bands should read the wives letters
and vice versa. OF course many OF
the communications received really con
Germ one as much as the other but
when a married couple make a regu-
lar practice Of opening each others
letters it does not seem fair to the
correspondents Of either. For instance
a woman may have friends OF her
own sex who ask the advice and SYM
patty in their worries and it would de
cidedly cause them to be less frank II
they imagined any eyes except hers
would read their outpourings. A hus-

Mete0rS ana Steel.

A study of the great collection of
meteorites in the Natural History Mu-
scum of Vienna leads DR.. F. Bert
werth to the interesting conclusion
that meteoritic iron, as it falls from
the sky and the various steels pro-
duced in our modern steel works are
the result of essentially similar chem
ical and physical causes. One Of the
more striking characteristics noted
in meteoritic iron is the presence of a
considerable quality of nickel. But
the mechanism by means of which ma
ture operating in celestial space, has
produced what is virtually nickel steel,
remains to be explained.

ways has often been the subject OF
comment, and the statistics of the
English roads for the year past lend
added weight to the comparison be.
tween these roads and our own in
the respects mentioned. From this
showing it appears that in the period
named in Great Britain passengers
were killed, or out of every 1919,
75S,000 carried, and 534 were in
jured, or / out of every 2,244,472
carried. In the United States, in ths

were killed, or out OF every 2,73O,
600 carried. and 534 were injured
or l out of every 149,107 carried
With regard to the railway employees
the net result is that In America /
in every 357 was killed and l in 19
injured, while in Great Britain 1 In
every S45 was killed and In every
S6 was injured. 1t should be added
in justice to the American railway
management. that the risks OF travel
and employment on American roads
are necessarily greater. since the dis.
tances Travelled here are much longer

A Hint For Tall Girls.

Here is an interesting extract from
"The Secrets of Successful Dressing, "
which appeared in the Royal Maga-
zine:
The tall girl may add large hat
to her attire. which. If worn by her
small sister, would bury her beneath
it. Far too often the Amazon, so
greatly embarrassed by her superfu-
,ous inches. makes the mistake of alb
juring picture millinery In favor of
tiny, fiat, pill box toques that seem to
cry aloud I am so tall already that
l must not add one-half inch to my
stature.
The tAt need not, indeed, have
eccentric feathers sprouting erratical-
ly from it on every side as we'll as up
right, nor should 1t be aggressive as
to color; that would be absurd. But
1t should be artistic as to line. The
very tall girl may also wear feather
boa, or one of The big Pierrot rufiies
that frame a swanlike throat so pret-
ily."

and though 1t was dreadful hard
work to get through the brush and

they'd given that name because of
the battle in the Revolutionary War?
Nothing but that ornery, kicking bur-

Cooper and Peck hadn't bothered

him, and seeing as how nobody
seemed to claim him they just appro-

The matter of keeping the hands
young and pretty is one that every
woman should consider seriously, and
before the time that it is really neces-
sary for heS to do SO. says the Delin-
Gator. The hands begin to age at
thirty, and there is no greater telltale
OF woman's age than hands not
properly cared for.
The woman whose hands are short
and thick. whose nails look as II they
had been chopped Of with coupon
clipper, has much to contend with.
She arouses antagonism the moment
any one looks at her hands. With
out well-groomed hands a woman is
unclassed; she can not possibly Inn
press one as being refined And. after
all. well-groomed hands are merely
q question of care.
Women nowadays are beginning to
realize that pretty hands are second
only In charm to a pretty face: a
pretty hand is not fat and rudgy, ss
