What is perhaps the most curious
book in the world is possessed by
Prince de Ligne This work is Meth
er printed nor a manuscript, the text
being formed of letters cut in vellum
and pasted on blue paper. Notwith-
standing this extraordinary method of
presenting the text, the book is as
easy of perusal as if printed in the
boldest type. All the characters
shown are cut with marvellous dexter
ity and precision This unique val
ume bears the title, 1.-THE Book Of All
Passions of Our Lord Jesus Christ,

Got His Just Reward

An editor died and slowly wended his way to where he supposed a warm reception awaited him. The Devil saw him and said: "Por many years thou hast borne the blame for the many errors the printers made in the paper. The printers have deviled thee on Saturday night for wages when thou hadst not one cent to thy name. Men have taken the paber without paying for it and cursed thee for not getting out a better one. Thou hast been called a dead beat by passenger conduc- tors when thou hast shown thy pass to envious gaze. All this thou hast borne in silence. Thou canst come in here." And he fired him.
 Heaven is his home; and, be- sides, if we let him come in here he will continually dun delinquent subscribers. for our habitation is full of them, and thus create disor. der in my kingdom."-Ex.

Publications Misquoted

The department of agriculture has recently been informed that certain of it's publications dealing with eucalyptus have been misquo ted by several companies interested in selling lands. For instance, Cir cular 97 of the Forest Service has been misrepresented as saying tha, California will in a few years be the only source of hardwood sup ply in the United States. Such a statement has never been made in any of the forest service publica- tions and is not considered fact.
 The department experts believe that there is promise of censidera- ble success in the cultivation of eucalyptus trees in many parts of California, but estimates of profit and of growth have been attributed 10 the department which are -unau thorized. There are many uncer- tainties connected with eucalyptus culture. the govern ment experts say which the investor should te ke into account.
 In some cases statements falsely attributed to the forest service in advertising matter have been cor rected when attention was called to the facts, but not before the mis- statements had been widely circu- lated Secretary Wilson says he does not intend to allow the name of his department to be used as a means of victimizing the public, and that in future any concern which attributes to the forest ser vice unauthorized statements may expect the statements to be pub licly disavowed.

Proper Advertising Pays

Is it not a fact the world over that the extent and skill of firms advertisement is taken as an indi- cation of it's importance? None but the best. largest and most sue cessful firms advertise intelligently and continuously. Others may make show, spasmodically, but their intermittent efforts lose them the benefit to be gained by unceas- ing effort in any pursuit. As we'll might man expect to accomplish success in business by striking out with all his force in unsympathetic efforts for a day or two, and then loafing for an equal time, as to achieve the best results from ad- vertising shiftlessly or intermit- tently. If you think it pays to ad vertise at all, set aside some fixed sum or per cent for this especial purpose, select carefully the medi- ums to be used, then write your advertisement skillfully and truth fully, and have them printed con- tinuously, with frequent change, and if you have anything that anybody wants you cannot fail to secure satisfactory results.

With slight variations, what we call the golden rule is found in the sacred literature of nearly every civilized, nation says the Atlanta Georgian. For example, the follow ing is extracts which have been compiled from the religious teachins of the various people of antiquity will show the notifications which the old adage has undergone:
 Do as you would be done bY.- Persian.
 Do not that to a neighbor which you would take i'll from him Grecian.
 What you would not wish done to yourself, do not unto others Chinese.
 One should seek for others the happiness one desires for oneself. = Buddhist.
 He sought for others the good he desired for himself. Let him pass on.-Egyptian.
 All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do you even so to decentralization.
 Let none of you treat his brother in way he himself would dislike to be treated.-Mohammedan.
 The true rule in life is to guard and do by the things of others as they do by their own.-Hindoo.
 The law imprinted on the hearts of all men is to love the members of society as themselves Roman.

The reports on tuberculosis are to be privately kept and are to be considered in the light of a confidential con- munication not for the purpose of olation, but with the object of education in sanitary precautions and to supply literature of the state board of health. A number of new regulations in regard to the quarantine of contagious diseases and the sanitary requirements of hotels and sleeping cars are also contained in the new code, which has the absolute force of law.

PRESIDENT TAFT IS
 KEEPING THEM BUSY

Washington, Feb S-Presidenl Taft, like his predecessor, President Roosevelt, seems to be determined to keep congress busy the balance of this session. One of the meas ures that he is vigorously urging is the enactment of law for further, more thorough and effective federal control over railroads and other interstate corporations.
 The way our railways have been built in the past has produced great and lasting evil. For instance when a road is to be built that will cost $5O,OOO,OOO, company is or ganized and stock is issued to that amount and sold. Of this $50, ,O0O,- GOO received from the sale of stock. about $45.0OO,O0O goes into the pockets of the promoters, which is nothing more or less than grating. Then the board of directors has to issue bonds for that $45 100000 in order to raise money with which to build the road. When the road is completed it must necessarily earn enough money to pay dividends on this $5O,OOO,0OO of stock, of which 90 per cent is water and interest on the bonds.
 In order to do this the railroad has to charge double for the pas senger and freight traffic, whereas, if the road had been built honestly it would only have to pay divi- dends on the stock, and could of course transport cheaply. It is the iniquitous origin of the railroads of this country that has caused the people to take such violent action against them, and for this antagon- ism the railroads have no one to blame but themselves.
 The state of Texas has developed the best railroad system of laws of any state in the union. When a railroad is to be built in Texas the promoters must submit their plans to the railroad commission of that state, who will not permit them to issue any larger amount of stocks or bonds than is necessary to build the railroad, and when the stock is sold, the proceeds of the sale must be accounted for to the railroad commissioners. If the legislature of every state in the union had passed as wise laws as the state of Texas. the railroad evil would have been very much less than it is.
 President Taft wants congress to regulate the issuance of all stocks and bonds by railroads which cross state lines, and this will include, of course, every railroad of importance in the country.
 Every individual state should see to it that when the federal au thorities take control of railroads and such things, that the authori- ty of each state is still undisturbed so far as controlling the railroads that come within it's borders.
 Secretary Root, former secretary of state under Roosevelt, has warned the states of this union that they should see to it that their rights are not absorbed by the federal govern ment, but the two should work in harmony with each other.
