THE FIRST CHOICE.
II Was Right. Too, Because the Braves.
Are the Tenderest.

Some years ago the excursion steam
er returning from Alaska to Seattle
dislocated its propeller in dreary
portion of the inner passage and came
to forced stop. For two days the
vessels engineers and machinists la
bored to repair the break. but without
success. Two Of the boats were man
ned and dispatched for aid. to Vic
toria, 800 miles away. In the mean
time it was discovered that the ships
stores were not abundant Alarm bred
in the minds Of pessimistic passen-
gers, and the contagion spread. Star
vation might assail the vessel before
help arrived.
A former California official took it
panions. but his effort was not per-
fectly adapted to raise dropping spir-
its. In fact. his closing sentences but
added to the gloom. Let us be brave y
he said. IF the worst comes and that
dread necessity which in such misad
ventures has met others must he faced
by us. let us remember that 1t is good
to die that our friends may live. The
one or more that may be sacrificed
Will be consoled by that thought"
There was moments silence. awful
In its intensity. then cheerful voice
was heard. "You should he taker
first. Governor Booth. You know the
bravest are the tenderest." And ever
the terror stricken smiled once more

In many cases in advertising, it
is necessary to go a little out Of
the way to attract attention. In
other words, the business repre-
sented must toot its horn loud
enough to insure attention before
it can attain to hearing.

Washington, Aug. S.-All records for
ifnportations of manufacturers mHteral
imported into the United States wee
broken during the fiscal year 1907. ac-
cordne to the bureau of statistics in

Raw wool, raw cotton. raw silk. nbrea.
hides, and skins. india rubber tobac-
co. tin. copper, lumber and certain ar
ficlcs included under the general group
"chcmicals." drugs and dyes are the
principal articles imported for manu-
featuring and in nearly all Of these the
Quantity imported In 100? exceeded That
Of any earlier year. There are few
EXCEPTIONS: Raw wool. pig tin. lead. cot
ton and lumber show In certain earlier
years quantities slightly in excess of
the nEure of 1909.
While this Is the highest record as TO
quantity of manufacturers material i'm
ported. It does not represent the highest
values. on the contrary the figures OF the
bureau show that the value Of crude
materials imported for use in manufacture
ing in the fiscal year 1909 was :24"o, COZ
below the value of this group Of imports
in 1901 and manufacturers in further Use
in manufacturing were $50 opo. o0o below the

The fail in value is nscribed To the
