Getting Weighed.

If the weighing machines that stand
around in public places with mouth
ever open for cents could talk odd tales
could they tell of the many and varied
people that step upon their platforms
of the stout lady who steps down with
smile glad that she has lost one
pound out of 300. of the stout gentle
man who steps up with 40-pound
suitcase in his hand and is astcnished
to find himself gaining weight SO rap
idly. of the merry parties of young
men and young women who. some
plump, some lean, step up one after
another; of the proud parent who sets
little Willie there and then little Ethel,
of the keen small boy who tries to get
his grandfather to let him step up be-
fore the old gentleman steps down so
that they can both get weighed for a
cent, and all that sort of thing.
In short. the Weighing machine meets
all sorts and varieties Of people, and
it comes to know them all. or
nearly all: and it knows as a
rule just what prompts them to weigh
themselves, whether it is idleness in
terest, curiosity. fear or just fun. But
probably it would puzzle even weigh
ing machine, though 1t knows many
people, to tell just why woman walk
ing along street on q rainy night and
carrying an umbrella should halt at

Rubber-Tanned Leather.

A British publication states that a
new sydicate has established a factory
In London and is placing upon the mar
ket new form of leather, for which
1t is claimed there is big future, and
WHICH it thus describes.
Th leather is submitted to a tanning
process of the chrome variety, which
preserves it: rubber solution is then
worked into the interstices, rendering
the hide thoroughly waterproof The
elasticity of the rubber permits of per-
feet flexibility and extraordinary
tougfness of some of the skins. espec-
tally of rabbit, goat and sheepskins. 1t
is impossible to forecast the many uses
for which this process may be avail
able. Tests have been made for mo-
tor tires. soles for bolts and shoes,
pump washers. machine betting, min
ers' boots. etc, and it is probable that
the multitude of articles that can be
made of rubberized leather will, in
time, create further demand for rub
Der. This new material, it is thought,
may also prove useful for motor and
cycle tires. as it Is almost impossible
to puncture 1t, while it is said to be
much more resilient and waterproof
than ordinary leather.

French Justice Seas No
. Reason foI Trial
Of GIacla Calais Husballd' tot:
Murder Of Her Broihef.
Several Circumstances Influence
Court In This Decision.

Paris. Aug. 22.-Examining magis-
strate Boucard has decided that there
was no basis for the prosecution of
Paul Roy, whose wife, Glacia Gala. an
American actress, accused him of muir
idering his brother-in-law, George A.
Carkins at Newington, N. H.. on Jan.
2, 1905.
Roy is French citizen and as France
does not allow her citizens to be ex-
tradited and tried in foreign country,
the American authorities asked the
French to consider the charge against
him.
Magistrate Boucard. whose decision
corresponds with that of mo bill" in
the American courts, ruled that in view
of the conflicting versions of Carkins'
death, given by the Carkins family, as
well as Roy's insistence that he had
fired in sclf-defence. and Glacia Calais
continued refusal to come to France
TO testify. no reason exists for trying
Roy on the charge.

Lending a Helping Hand.

Success is the thing that all desire,
though 1t prefigure itself under many
forms and different aspects. 1t may
take that of a merely selfish desire;
1t may be holy aspiration. For the
general individual, however, it is apt
to he mixture of both. A man wants
what he calls success as a basis to
stand upon: but most men and women
want higher than that, and wanting
first to be fairly well placed them
selves, they also want, after this to
reach out helping hand to others
Perhaps the fallacy is that we fancy
until we are ourselves tolerably well
provided for, for personal demands al
ways increase with the ability to meet
them. and he who waits to help an
other until he has everything he would
like himself might wait all his life and
mover experience the luxury of doing
a generous deed. One does not require
a fortune in order to give much service
that is valuable to humanity. The
wish to give it lin the communication
of sympathy with all right purposes,
of courage. exaltation, and honor)
the wish to communicate happiness,
all these will find out their way,
whether one be rich or poor. mo gift
can make rich those who are poor in
WISDOM" says Mrs. Howe. No lack of
material gifts can be poor when one
may offer spiritual stimulus That
has the supreme value.-Lilian Whit

GREENLANp,S BOOM.
Has Graphite. Asbestos, Copper and
Mica, Besides Coal.

What is known as the Greenland So
ciety of Copenhagen has been formed
for the purpose of developing the natu-
raj resources of Greenland.
The annual report states that inter-
estfng results have been obtained from
the explorations made for large Dan
ish syndicate during the years 19oS-1907
in Greenland, by Norwegian and Ger
man engineers.
Up to that time about the only pro-
ducts known were cryolite, which de-
posits are now extensively worked, and
coal deposits. The recent explorations
show that there is to be found graph
lite of very good quality, besides as
bestos, mica and copper.
It appears that copper is abundant in
Greenland. At present it is already
taken out at the Alangossak mines.
