Grace.

A paper out in northwestern Kansas tells of a pious old farmer who has the habit of gazing at the rafters in his dining-room when saying grace One day while so engaged he for got himself, and his grace sounded something like this: We thank thee for this food and-by Joe! there's that darned gimlet I've been looking for for the last six months I'll have Jim go up there and get it. Thou hast been gracious to us, o Lord, and again we thank thee. Amen!"-Kan- sas City Star.

A RESULT of having lost it's Pacific seaboard province of Antofagasta, follow ing the war with Chile in 1879, Bolivia found itself shut off from the sea and de- pendent upon it's neighbors for an outlet to the great world.
 Great as was the blow to national pride, for the Bolivians felt the loss of Antofagasta more keenly than even the French that of the Rhine provinces, and serious as was the loss to the national treasury of the revenues derived from the rich nitrate fields of the lost province, yet the blow was perhaps less heavy than the Bol1vlans themselves then thought

Rebuilding the Canapanile at Venice

The construction of the new Cam panile at Venice is proceeding apace, and 1911 should see it's completion. It has been fortunate in being relieved of all pecuniary embarrassment-a fate which our tottering cathedrals have not avoided-and the originally estimated E72.000 and later calcu- lation of f80.000 have already been supplied, together with a comfortable surplus for emergencies.

to Bolivia is railways This need was recoenized to certain extent prior to the war with Chile AS far back as June, 1863, the national assembly authorized the president to enter into contracts for the building of railways and in 1888 a com cesslon was granted to a citizen of the United states to build a railway from Cobiji to Potos With government guaranty of seven per cent on the capital invested In addition, the conces- sion carried a grant of land one league on each side of the line. number of other concessions were made in 1869, 1873, 1874 1877, 1878 and 1879
 In 1904 the Bolivian national office of immi- grafton and statistics issued volume of nearly 400 pages containing the acts decrees and con. sessions in aid of railways covering the years 1880 to 1904 Every effort was made by the gov ernment during this period to induce capital to invest in railway construction in the country Perhaps nowhere else in the world were such in- ducements held out by any country to secure the end sought as by Bolivia following the termina- tion of the war with Chile. These inducements were offers of land, mines, exemption from taxa ton and customs duties, government guarantees financial aid and exclusive privileges. But unfor- tunately for Bolivia the offers were not made in the right quarter. In it's eagerness to secure re- suits, concessions were granted to and contracts made with the most irresponsible parties in many mere adventurers without capital or Influence. The net result naturally to retard rather than to help railroad construction
 In 1904 all that Bolivia had to show in rail- ways as result of 40 years legislation and in- humerdpie contracts were the Guaqui and the Antofagasta roads The former gave an outlet from La Paz to Lake Titicaca whence passengers and freight were transported across the lake by boat to the Peruvian port of Puno and thence by the Peruvian railway to Nollendo on the Pacific The total length of the road from Alto of La Paz to Guaqui on Lake Titicaca was S7 kilometers (54 miles). The gauge was one meter (3937 inches) and the rails weighed IS kilograms per meter-about 12 pounds per foot.
 The Antofagasta, Bolivias first railway. had a total mileage of 925 kiometers (573 miles), gauge of 75 centimeters (2953 inches) and rails weighing 17.40 kilograms per meter, or about Il pounds per foot
