and specifications wanted. Speaking
generally,I presume there are some
thing like fifty to seventy-fve differ
ent prices on Southern pine lumber
and equally as many grades orkinds,
and the Southern consumer uses all
of the different grades and prices of
lumber in the construction work Of
the South. About one-twentieth of
the amount of lumber consumed in
the South is the roofer or box grade,
this being the grade on which the tar
iff helps the Southern manufacturer,
and such small portion of it used
South that the price to local con-
sumers is not affected, and as the
Southern mills have large proper
ton of roofer and box grades, they
are compelled to seek a market d.
rectly in competition with Canadian
common, low grade lumber on the
border line where this grade is used
extensively in the numerous box fac
tories; there are very few box facto-
ries South, and Canada offers no COM
petition whatever, regardless of tar
ifs, ON the better and higher grades
of our Southern pine and no compeh-
ton whatever on dimension sizes for
heavy construction work, house
framing, railroad trestle work, etc,
and no competition whatever, re-
sardless of tariffs or otherwise, on
heart long leaf pine timbers and
lumber, because they have no such
timber to sell anywhere; therefore
the Southern lumberman is helped
by the tariff to market a grade of
lumber that would otherwise be
Ecompelled to rot in the forest un-
touched, for want of q market at
any prices IS great deal OF it's now
doing. This grade is called locally
,culls and very little used oy farmers.

Coald a man. had he the opportunity,

from his ewnr Modern philosophy tells
us that life Is then at It's highest and
best when the organism is perfectly
adapted to its environment. II this be
pe. then 1t is clear that any large, sud
Den and abrupt change in the environ
rrent must impair the vitality OF the
organism and might eve destroy 1t al
together. There are many worthy peo-
pie who delight to call themselves old
fashioned, and are always longing, SO
they pretend. to live in some other and
better g than their own. 1t is a vain
aspiration. and those who entertain 1t
only succeed, SO far as they succeed at
al in getting hopelessly out Of touch
with their own age. We have no other

true wisdom OF life is frankly to live in

Queen Mary of England is an expert
needlewoman. She is not only an ex-
pert dressmaker, but Is wonderfully
clever at lacemaking. She has taught
her daughter the way OF making lin
Eerie gowns and has insisted that the
princess be trained In the same severe
school as herself. Her training was
most rigorous. She WAS taught the
value of practical arts, n despite the
royal position she never was led to be-
tieye she should fritter away her time.
Her husband has been serious in that
respect. for he is earnest and fond
more of solemn pursuits than society
affairs. The queen has met many
American women, but she has made
warm friends only with those who are
Interested in charities, literature or
have some special aim. To such wom-
EN- the queen often has said she wished
society women would give UP high
heels and long earrings and learn
neediework. In fact she ever has said
that learning to cook WAS much better
than spending an afternoon at the
races.
