BRAZIL. ITS RICHNESS
 AND INDUSTRIES
A New Book Setting Forth Its Politi-
 cal and Industrial Development

Few persons are aware of the extreme richness oi the United States of Brazil, the largest and most important of the South American republics. and to sup ply full historical and industria! infor- nation. the government of that country has had prepared voluminous work in two volumes which is shortly to make its appearance in English.
 In 1905. the Brazilian Minister of Means. Transportation, Industry and Public Works ordered the preparation of this work. and it was accomplished after three years arduous labor under the di- rcction of Dr. Nicira Souro, Professor of the Polytechnic School of Rio de Janiero. and at present Director of the Mission of Economic Expansion with offices in Paris, France The work was fi-st published in Portuguese. then trans lated into French. and las just been pre- pared afresh in English. It IS in two volumes of 1000 pages each, copiously illustrated.
 The work describes in detail the ex- traordinary rapidity with which the pc litical and industrial development of the country has gone forward, and in the section devoted to the conquest of the soil. 1t reads like a great TO- nance of adventure The manner in which Brazil has taken hold of and solved her question of public health might serve as lesson to the nations, for she has driven out the yellow fever scourge completely. bringing her nor tality tables down far below those of any European city The Rio de Janeiro fig- ure now standing at 2o7, the European average running to POS
 Within the space of 34 years the pop ulation of Brazil has gone up from some 100000 to over 22.ooo.ooo. an increase of over one hundred per cent. In 1903, her exports were I85 millions. and four years later had risen to 272 millions. Every phase of industry has gone for ward rapidly, and the great republic with Iso,ooo square miles more territory than the United States, is coming rap idly to the front among the nations, for her richness of resource IS almost be- yond belief The new book will be ready for distribution within a few weeks.

.PER|lOUs PLIGHT
 0f DR. J. M. SWETNAN
How Nearly He Came to Sacrificing His Life in the Interest of
 Science.

one never knows in this world how closely death is haunting him nor the hazards he is taking even when he thinks he is the safest from all dan ger. It is hard tu think of any avo- cation less inimical to life and limb. less likely to lead to sudden and vio- lent death. than standing out quietly on ones own premises in the early evening and gazing at the stars. Nev ertheless q couple Of nights past Dr. ]. M. SWctnam came within gnat's eyebrow of being suddenly projected into the mysteries of futurity while counting the rings on the tail of Hal lcy'S comet
 He was standing near an electric light pole in front of his house, not far from the sidewalk. One arm was up. sustaining d field glass. and the other rested against the pole to keep his body from sWaying. so he could hold the glass more steadily. He was alone with his thoughts-and the comet. and stood not only mUtionlcss. but lost in meditation. He did not hear the approaching footsteps of woman, nor yet was he aware of the pause in her progress when she saw his figure in the gloom short dis tance ahead and little to one side.
 Though she was frightened she did not lose her nerve. She is q resident of the west end uf the city, one of those so far from the seat of govern ment that they no longer depend upon the blue coats for protection late at night. but rather. 80 prepared for all emergencies. She whipped out her little revolver. determined to prove that while she was not seeking trouble she was not afraid of the bravest hold-up that ever hid behind tree. Cooking the weapon she proceeded down the sidewalk expecting every moment to face a shooter, and pre- pared to fire before any assailant could utter a command.
 Much to her surprise the figure re- maincd motionless until after she had passed. Not having been accostcd she did not seek trouble. did not fire to scare the outlaw. and pursued her journey home. for it is q recognized convention among the West End folk that every citizen shall take care of his own highwaymen without bother ing the neiGhbors. She was fully con convinced that she had passed thug of some sort who failed to halt her only because she was woman. or be- cause he was waiting for bigger game. But when she read in The Republican

Presently Long came back with his prisoner and there was rush. led by Mrs. Goldberg. q beautiful young ! woman.
 "'Oh, there he is. there he si' she cried, running across the platform and throwing her arms about her hus- bands neck. to the great astonishment of the spectators in the little station. At the same time, oiier was thrust ing the copy cf the writ into the hands of the Spokane officer and informing him that it was q paper of court di recting that Goldberg should be turned over to the Burbank officer It was dark. and Long, puzzled by the fact that ne was not able to read the in , strument. permitted Offer to lead : Goldberg away.
 The discomfitted Long made his way back ,o police headquarters in lsoS -AllStifS anu HIS tIoubltS into the sympathetic ears of Detective Chapman. in charge of the office. The telephone wires were soon busy.
 Sheriff HammeI had no idea who it was that might have served the pa per on Long. He only knew that the paper had been turned over to Sparks. and Sparks was not to be found at that time. Also. it was certain that Goldberg was neither in the city nor in the county jail
 After much telephuninC. il was dis covered by the officers that Ojier was the man who had served the writ on Long. but neither Marshal Catlin at Burbank nor anybody else could tell any more about the whereabouts of Offer than they knew what had be- come of Goldberg and his wife.
 Offer went to Los Angeles with them said Catlin. I guess he must have put that man Goldberg in the county jail But the marshal missed his guest
 Attorney Sparks was not found un- til late at night. He declined with in- spring enthusiasm to give any infor- nation as to where he had hidden his client
 Mir. Goldberg is safe. and I will produce him at the proper time is the extent of his remarks.
 'The writ of habeas corpus. which was directed to C. F. Long and Alex ander Galloway. the chief of police. commanded these officers to produce the body of A. T. Goldberg in the court of Judge Wilbur at 10 o'clock tOmor- row, or as soon thereafter as possible"

Proven Eczema Cure

For several years we have am nOunced. with our recommendation. that we had found a positive cure for eczema: a simple skin wash. oil of win tergreen compounded with other heal ing ingredients.
 Yet we know there are people right an this town who have eczema. and still have never tried this remedy.
 We have. therefore. arranged with the D. D. D. Laboratories of Chicago for special offer of d trial bottle at 25 cents instead of the s1.00 bottle as regularly sold. Be sure of the correct name: D. D. Prescription.
 We offer this trial bottle with our recommendation and assurance that just as soon as the patient washes his itching skin. this mild liquid will take the itch away instantly.

THE PLEASURES OF RAILROAD
 ING IN NEWFOUNDIAN

Our own first journey was made by train. We had not yet decided where we were going. but in any ease there was but one train to take. and there would be plenty of time to settle on the destination after Ne were once aboard. We made an un- necessary stir about catching this train-a phrase that still chung to us because it was advertised to leave at a quarter before nine in the morn ing. The lady hotel clerk. when we presented our case to her the night before leaving. in the nervous. imper- ative American manner gave us du- bious reinsurance. In the soothing brogue of the Newfoundlander. with whom the upward infection signifies acquiescence in everything that is. we were told that the hotel did not serve early breakfast. and that, although it was possible that the truckmen who operate d raft on wheels might ap- pear in time to convey our trunks to the station. it was nevertheless not their habit to begin work before nine o'clock
 We did not succeed in altering the countrys customs. and therefore left St. Johns. when the train got ready to take us, which was not at the hour scheduled. But we were the only travellers who experienced any asita ton on that account. It is recognized that nobody bound for the cutports can possibly be in hurry. and the Newfoundlander enjoys and makes tl, fsf foe. We came to understand that an hours margin, both in advance and in retard of the nominal hour is allowed by all discreet travellers But if sociability is the pre- eminent feature of the New foundland railway service, it's picnick ing facilities are no less agreeable. That is to say, if you take a five hours journey, you may count upon spending three of them in waiting somewhere. If you are properly pre- pared with a picnic basket. you wan der out into the adjoining landscape and cat something. and later concede that q great charm has been lent to travel And stocking luncheon basket shortly becomes as simple a matter of routine as packing hand- bag. In no boasting spirit. but as a stimulus to later travellers. neither the tin opener. the cork screw, nor the vacuum bottle. whicn are the chief requisites of a railway journey, was once fOrgotten.-Olivia Howard Dun bar, in Harpers Magazine for March.
