Well Guarded Trade Secrets.

There are two trade secrets at least
that the world at large may never
learn. One is the Chinese method of
making the bright and beautiful color
known as vermilion, or Chinese red;
and the other is a Turkish secret-the
in'aying OF the hardest steel with gold
and silver.
Among the Chinese and the Turks
these two secrets are well guarded
Apprentices before they are taken
for either trade, must swear an iron
clad oath to reveal nothing of what
passes in the workshop. These APP
prentices, furthermore. must belong
to a family Of standing, must pay a
large sum by way of guarantee, and
must furnish certificates of good char
acter and honesty These secrets
have been handed down faithfully
from one generation to another for
hundreds OF years.-The Sunday Mag

The Mullet in Gulf Waters.

The mullet has always attracted a
goodly share of attention His fame
is not circumscribed by the boundaries
OF the gulf Whether the visitor b.
from the Atlantic or the Pacific coast
or from the shores of the Mediterran.
can or the Baltic, he wants 20 see eX'
anime and feast on the mullet.
He is the best known fish that
swims Some have prejudice against
him, but like all feelings of this ma
lure, it rests on an unsubstantial foun
dation. 1t cannot bear investigation
tor the mullet plays a greater part
In appeasing the craving for sea foods
than any fish that inhabits the waters
of the gulf He is here in summer
and winter, in fall and in spring
When the fisherman contemplates his
plight, when luck is against him anG
a feeling of depression creeps over
him, the mullet. always ready to give
him a helping hand, rushes into his
seine and contributes to his fortune
and to the gastronomic pleasure OF
the thousands of people to whom they
are shipped He is a regular standby
In prosperity and in adversely he is
always in abundance. - Pascagoula

ADVOCATES FLIRTING.

Prof. George Herbert Palmer Of
Harvard, 67 years old, has come
forward with the statement that a
little flirting, properly conducted, is
not only advisable, but even ilnpera-
tive for the average college boy and
girl. Flirting is the surest road
toward the proper knowledge of So
cial life" says the professor. q be-
lieve the girls of Radcliffe and the
boys of Harvard devote too much of
their time to study. They actually
bury themselves in their books, and
the result is that that when they get
through college they don't know a
thing about social life, They should
mingle little frivolity with their
studies-in other words, they should
hirt little"

P. R. HODGE FOR ASSESSOR.

P. r. Hodge of Damascus, Walker
township, announces in this issue of
The Log Cabin Democrat his candi-
dacy for the office of tax assessor,
subject to the Democratic primary.
Although he has lived in the county
only four years and is not so widely
known as some of the candidates, Mr.
Hodge is highly respected by those
who know him. He has been a cripple
since birth and unable to do manual
labor, and his experience in clerical
work he believes qualities him for the
position he seeks. He has been a life
long Democrat and has never before
been a candidate for office. He says
he will greatly appreciate any support
given him, and if elected will make an
honest effort to assess the county prop
.erty on an equal basis.

FAR in THE NORTH
MISSIONS FOUNDED IN THE LAND
OF THE EsKlMOS.
Spread of Christianity Has Been
Marked Among People of the Most
lnhospitabe Land on the
Earth.

Rev Dr. r j. Renison, rector of st
| Paul's Episcopal church, speaking here
, before a large congregation on mis-
sionary work among the Eskimos, said
he considered the Eskimcs were the
only civilized race in the world That
were secure from the encroachment
of the civilized white man and that 1t
therefore escaped extinction, or at
| least degradation, from contact with
so-called civilization, a San Francisco
dispatch says.
Unless the earth shall change its
axis, thereby changing the climate OF
the bleak and inhospitable north, he
said, no nation will ever attempt to
deprive the Eskimo of his land. This
| peculiar people inhabit vast terri
! tory, yet, Notwithstanding the vast
ness of their domain, there is only one
| tribe They speak the common IAN
! ,u2ge and have the same customs,
whether in the Hudson bay country or
in the Bafins bay regions.
The speaker was unable to under
stand why they had chosen such
| habitation, if they really had chosen
! it.
In the brief three months of sum
mer." said the speaker, the Eskimo
| hunts the seal and walrus and en-
cages in fishing to lay up store OF
cod for the nine months of winter,
| and when the winter comes he saws
the hard snow into large blocks and
with these builds a house in the shape
of a bee hive, pours water over II and
| it freezes hard and makes a tight
dwelling, secure against the wind.
| The opening of the door is so small
that one must crawl on his hands
| and knees to enter the igioo. Bushes
| are spread upon the floor and seals
| blubber in a followed stone is lighted
and serves for lamp and cooking
| stove
In the Baffin's bay country the pro
testant Episcopal church has the most
noftherly mission in the world, 1t
was founded 80 years ago by Rev.
Mr.. Peck, who, after learning the Ian
guage. spent several years in convert
| Ing the people of the ice-bound land.
The first church building he erected
was built of sealskins sewn together
! md when it was finished the dogs de-
Noured it over night. The permanent
church was built soon thereafter with
lumber shipped from Canada.
Mr. Peck found these people to
have an innate sense of right and
wrong and found them faithful and
trustworthy in all respects. Before
hey became Christians the Eskimos
used to kill all their aged and decrcpit
men and used to force the old women
10 commit suicide This was Conc
under what they conceived to be the
stern law of necessity, but since that
time the practice has been abandoned.
They are sincere Christians, or at
least those of them that have come
within reach OF the missionary intu-
ence"
