Soaring Given IN New Jersey
Paper.

In a recent issue of The Forum an
account was given OF the death OF
Chas. w. Soaring OF Dover, N, j.,
nephew OF ]. w. Soaring of The Forum
Office. At that time details could not
be learned. The Dover Advance says
that Chas. w. Soaring met his death
by slipping on the icy steps of the
Hudson river tunnel at Hoboken while
hurrying for train. In the fall he
struck the back of his head and was
unconscious when the nearest pedes-
trian reached him. He was hurried
to Bellevue hospital but was dead be-
fore he reached the institution.
Mr.. Soaring, who was the son Of the
late Manning Soaring, was born in
Dover forty-three years ago. He COM
menced work in the store OF Ephraim
Lindsey afterward taking situation
with the wholesale house by which he
was employed when he met his death
He worked for some time in the New
York store and then was assigned ia
a place as a salesman. He filled every
requirement and was one of the most
trusted employees of the company.

al rough estimate of the amount OF
money in circulation throughout the
world on Nov. places the total at $15,-
$50, 600, 900. This includes gold, silver
and uncovered paper. Gold comprises
nearly half of the entire worlds cur
rency. If 1t be estimated that about
half of the fresh gold produced from
year to year goes into the form of coin

$40e, 900, 900 added to the supply during
the last two years.

Profit in Waste places.

A New Orleans man is pushing a
scheme to have the government pur-
chase 100000 acres of cutover land
each year during ten years, reforest
1t, and thus insure to posterity at least
a limited supply OF lumber. The lands
to be acquired are those in Georgia,
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi. Louis
ianna, Arkansas and Texas that have
been denuded of yellow pine. The or
iginator Of the idea proposed to have
a bill presented to congress next
month embodying his suggestion, and
processes to be hopeful of success, says
The st. Paul Pioneer Press.
There is no doubt that 100000
acres OF yellow pine would be very
valuable asset to the government in
thirty TO fifty years from now: that 1t
could be handled so as to be a perman-
ent revenue producer, and made to
yield big returns on the investment.
The appeal for cooperation, however,
is being made TO the big lumber con-
Germs. They are not generally credit
ed with worrying about what the gov
ernment may make at some future date,
consequently ii is reasonable to sup
pose that the demonstration plan has
some special significance to them. That
probably can be found in the proposal
to afford to them ready sale for their
cutover lands than at present are OF
little value or are liability.
II those owning the pine forests Of
the south will be as farsighted as they
propose to have the government be-
come, the supply will not give out,
even though the cutover areas are not
replanted. If they are genuinely in
terested in the future of the lumber
supply let them demonstrate their in
terest by handling nationally the ma
I terial on hand. Intelligent forestry
methods will be just as effective now
as at the end of half century. 1t is
not necessary to replant 20,0O0,000
acres in order to demonstrate what
i may be done. The public is interested
in the future of the supply of timber
but 1t is not necessarily ready to stand
by to offer market for the waste Land
as soon as those in possession have
skinned IL OF the valuable timber.

A Royal Baby Carriace.

Princess Juliana of Holland has
joined the ranks of the caravanners.
A marvellous construction-shou it
be called "carambulator" or car
ram?"-has been devised for the
little Dutch princess wherein. when
the weather is cold and the sun shines
only in certain parts of the Het Loo,
she can be conveyed from the palace
to the sunshine.
1t IS, as a matter of fact. a giant
covered perambulator containing a
stove and seats for nurses, besides
the bassinette for the royal baby; and
it is. of course, drawn by a horse. If
she were an English princess she
would at once be nominated patroness
of the Caravan club.
The Queen of Holland herself is
said to have invented this new baby
carriage for her daughter. 1t is not
the first time she has displayed in
genuity of an inventive character.

and silver.

Up-to-Date Polar TOYS.

THE latest French toys are all fur
and ice and American flags and polar
bears. Look here"
The salesman took down a card
board representation of the white
north. Two fur-clad figures, each
holding an American flag, were la
beled Cook and Peary, and a socket
was labeled north pole. When the
toy was wound the two figures fenced
nercely with their flags about the
socket until, finally, one of them got
his Flagstaff into the hole.
Here is a new north pole game, -
the salesman said. This white pole
is the pole itself. and the figure in
white fur is Cook, while the one in
black is Peary. The game is played
by throwing dice. Each figure is ad.
vanced so many degrees, according
to the number thrown. He wins, OF
course, who gets to the top Of the
pole first" Another toy was an Es-
kimo sledge containing a fur-clad ex-
plorer and drawn, by six dogs. A
turn of the key and the dogs galloped
and the explorer fourished his long
dashed whip.

Christian BurIaIs at Jerusalem.

Until about fifty years ago Chris
tians in Jerusalem, and Franciscans as
well, were buried without coffin, the
latter simply in the habit of the order.
At the grave the hood of the deceased
was sewed shut over his face, and
thus he was bedded in the earth. The
former burial place of the Catholics
was in the valley of the Cedron along
side the Garden of Gethsemane at the
foot of the Mount of Olives, where the
Jews are still buried to-day Only a
century ago a new churchyard was
laid out on Mount Sion, the place
where King David and his success
ors are still buried. The exact spot
is unknown, although many attempts
have been made to find it. An old
tradition says that about the fifth CEN
fury some workmen accidentally pen
etrated this vault. They looked in
and saw the magnificent sarcophagi,
but in trying to enter the chambers
of the dead they were repulsed by
flames of fire bursting forth from with
in. The frightened workmen closed
the entrance to the vault, the exact
location Of which has been forgotten

HAVING FUN AT THE TABLE
Stimulating the Appetite by Cheerful
ness and Freedom from Worry
Is Good Thing.

1t is astonishing to one who has
not studied the subject thoughtfully
to learn how completely under the
control Of the nervous system, or rath-
er of the emotions, the entire diges-
tive apparatus is.
1t is a matter of everyday expert
eDce that the appetite is under the
subsection of the feelings, although
not of the will. The impulse to ceie-
brate any good news by a dinner is
founded upon the fact that when one
is pleased and elated hunger is ex-
cited. In early times this hunger was
grathed on the moment, just as the
accompanying thirst too often is now,
but the modern man usually defers
MS eating to suitable occasion.
The loss of appetite caused by bad
news or misfortune of any kind is too
well known to need more than men,
ton. Worry or physical fatigue will
often act in the same way. The same
causes that destroy the appetite will
arrest or greatly retard the process
of digestion. 1t is matter of common
experience that any disagreeable &C.
currenee during or Just after a meal
will stop digestion and may bring on
bilious attack with headache. nausea
and coated tongue Concentration
Of the mind or anxiety will act in the
same way.
On the other hand, as the appetite
is stimulated by good news and mental
citation, so digestion is favored by
whatever promotes gayety and high
spirits.
Laugh and grow fat" like so many
popular sayings. is an expression
which contains much truth. Dyspep

aside for the moment and to come t,
the table prepared to be light hearte,
and gay. This is not only a mora
duty, but rests upon the very physica
reason that his appetite will be better
and his food will taste better and will
be better digested.
In this connection it goes without
saying that bills and disagreeable let
ters should never be the accompani
ment of the morning meal, because q
day started with chagrin is a very
hard day to straighten out.-Youth's

FAR In THE NORTH
MIS- LIONS FOUNDED IN THE LAND
OF THE ESK.MOs.
Spread Of Christianity Has Been
Marked Among People Of the Most
InhospitabIe Land on the
Earth.

Rev. DR.. R. J. Renison, rector of St
Paul's Episcopal church, speaking here
before a large congregation on mis-
slonary work among the Eskimos, said
he considered the Eskimos were the
only civilized race in the world that
were secure from the encroachment
of the civilized white man and that it
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 a vast terri
tory, yet. Notwithstanding the vast
ness of their domain, there is only one
tribe. They speak the common Ian
guage and have the same customs.

In the Bafin's bay regions.
The speaker was unable to under
stand why they had chosen such a
habitation, If they really had chosen
it.
I'm the brief three months of sum-

cages in fishing to lay up a store OF
food for the nine months of winter,

In the Bafins bay country the pro
testant Episcopal church has the mos
northerly mission in the world. Il
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
and when it was finished the dogs de
voured 1t over night. The permanent
church was built soon thereafter with
lumber shipped from Canada.
Mr.. Peck found these people tc
have an innate sense of right and
wrong and found them faithful and
Trustworthy in all respects. Before
they became Christians the Eskimos
used to kill all their aged and decrepit
men and used to force the old women
to commit suicide. This was done
under what they conceived to be the
stern law of necessity, but since that
time the practice has been abandoned

The piriaibIe soap-Rubhle.

The catastrophe of Republique re-
minds me of what a French engineer
and constructor, M. Gandillon, told
me quite year ago: "The weak point
of all dirigible balloons is that
the safety margin in every detail of
their construction is too low saws a
Paris letter to London Truth. In or.
binary steelwork, say a bridge. the
stress put upon the rods is but a frac.
ton of what they could really stand.
In air machines, where lightness is
the paramount consideration, it is nee.
essary to cut things very fine indeed.
So that If you read in the papers that
the France dirigible balloon made a
run to Verdun at the rate of 43 kilo-
meters an hour, 1t means that at this
speed all her parts were strained
nearly to breaking-point, and that she
would have been quite unable to make
