IS A HAVEN FOR AMERICANS
island of Porto Rico Prophesied as .
Future Mecca for Our Wealthy
Citizens.

Washington.-With the next 30
years Porto Rico will be occupied ex'
clusively by American millionaires, &C.
cording to the opinion Of Alfred Ze-
vas. resident OF San Juan, who says
that Americans already are awaken'
ing to the picturesqueness or the
island. its climatic inducements, ana
its generally healthy conditions.
"The weather. people OF America
are gradually realizing what great
acquisition the island is to the United
States. Americans are looking for
places of beauty and rest. They are
seeking places where they can get
away from the ordinary, and for this
reason I say" continued Mr.. Zeyas,
..Porto Rico will eventually be desig-
mated as the mecca Of Americas rich.
Here they can motor through miles
of mountains, where the scenery
equals that of any part of Switzer-
land. The country is threaded with
miles of good roads, the majority OF
which are macadamized.
"When the automobilist reaches
certain attitudes In the center of Por-
to Rico he can look to all sides Of
him and view the sea. Not only is
the scenery of the island ideal, but
the climate is that Of perpetual spring.
Not once in the last decade have we
experienced a storm which has
caused material damage. This mod.
crate temperature, coupled with the
salt breezes, makes the climate exu;
berating. American tourists already
are visiting Porto Rico in large num-
bers during the winter months"

ment. enlarged and turned into the
government house.
There are excursions every steam
ship day to Vailima and Stevenson's

Many of the travellers who make the
pilgrimages are Australians and New
Zealanders, who seem to be among his
most devoted admirers No, we do not
have much excitement in Samoa, as a
rule. though the volcano on Savaii
has provided lot OF it. In the first
years of its activity 1t destroyed lots
Of fertile territory. The natives were
transplanted to Upolu. But lately the
lava has found an outlet underneath
the older lava, by which it flows d.
rectly to the sea. We hope this will
continue open and that there will be
no more outbursts. A great region is
now covered thick with lava, and, Of
course, the land is destroyed for agri-
cultural purposes 1t is quite black"

From his Dutch wife he acquired some

young children were dependent on
him, and he purchased large tray,

would not change his way of living
except for something absolutely per-

Satisfied with an occupation that
procures him a living, he has his
books and his pen for intellectual
companionship. Every morning he
gets up at three o'clock in order to
read and write for some hours before
taking up his stand on the street. He
has written four one-act and two four

been highly praised by q London man

His library Is small, but select; It
includes a fine copy of "Oedipus Ty.

Growth of Sugar Beet Industry

Lincoln, Neb.--A few years ago a
great deal was said about GROWING
beets In the United States and the in.
dustry was supposed to have a great
future. During the last eight or ten
years sugar beets have dropped out of
the public mind, but 1t is quite evil
dent they have not dropped out Of the
mind Of the farmer or of the sugar re-
finer. The consumption of sugar in
this country last year totaled $780,
100000 pounds, or nearly 80 pounds
for every man, woman and child. OF
this amount the sugar cane fields sup
piled 750,000,000 pounds, while the
beet fields supplied 1,025, 900 900
pounds. Ten years ago, in 1S99-1900,
the beet sugar production was only
70 100000 pounds. 1t has grown to Is
times that amount in ten years. Until
1907 the quantity of cane sugar pro-
duced in the United States exceeded
that of beet sugar. In 1907 the beet
sugar production amounted to 967,000,,
600 pounds, and the cane sugars high
est mark was S29.000.ooO pounds Ia
1909.

ATHLETICS TO CHECK TALK

larity of athletics. A girl among girls
in college has the time and the in
centive to go into things of the sort
that in many cases she does not have

MAKE THE BEST MATTRESSES
College Girls Employed to Exclusion
of All Others In Mountain
Hosiery.

There is hotel up in the White
mountains that has only college girls
as mattresses. There are more than
fifty such girls employed in the hotel,
and Gen. M. G. Wentworth, proprie7
tor of the hostelry, now says he would
not have any other kind of servants.
He has applications from Wellesley,
Smith, Vassar. Wells and many other
girls colleges for positions as wait
resses, and, in fact, has so many Ncal-
didates he selects his help by most
rigorous examination. The girls are
on duty only for breakfast, luncheon
and dinner, and have the rest Of the
day absolutely free. AS the majority
of these girls rank high in class, and
as many children are in the, hotel
with their parents, they have abund4
ant time to do tutoring in the summer
and make large fees in that way
General Wentworth is satisfied with
the arrangement and usually encour-
ages the girls to make all the money
they can. He has found his scheme
successful and observes his guests
invaribly are satisfied. There Is q
superstition" said Wentworth, "a col
lege education units a girl for eff
cient work, but this Is nonsense. /
have had experience with all kinds Of
servants, and If am given my choice
! invariably pick the college girl.
Not only does the college girl attend
to her work better than the ordinary
servant, but her work is much more
finished. She has a better idea Of
what is required and she has better
idea of the place Of work in the
world"

Artificial. camphor.

There is in operation in New York
state an artificial camphor factory.
the product of which Is intended to
compete in the market with the nat
.ural substance. 1t is maintained that
1t does not differ, except in the man
ner Of it's origin, from that extracted
from the camphor trees of Formosa.
Artificial camphor is made from es-
sential oils derived from turpentine.
Chemically the only difference be-
tween turpentine and camphor is the
possession by each molecule of the
latter of one atom of oxygen which is
lacking In the former. By chemical
process the needed oxygen is sup
piled. Three-fourths Of the entire sup
ply of oamphor is used in the arts,
and one fourth in medicine.

HER TIME WORTH s64 A DAY
Woman Called Upon to Dig Deep for
Little Accommodation Rem
dered.

II know woman, that is, I have
speaking acquaintance with her over
the telephone, whose time must be-
worth about $64 for a working day of
eight hours" said the woman. From
little bill she sent me the first Of
October I have figured that is what
she values herself at. She is an ac-
commodating woman. We got ac-
,quainted through her going to all
kinds of trouble to deliver telephone
message. One afternoon she. called
out our number and asked II there
was anybody living there named
Maude. My name is Maude. ! told
her so. Then she said that about an
hour before some man had called her
to the telephone and without waiting
to find out whether he had the right
number or not he had said: Hello,
Maude, that you? I'll be up about
six o'clock tonight. Be sure TO be
ready to start the minute / get there
Before she could say word he
had rung OF and she set about trying
to corner Maude who used her own
telephone number on another ex-
change. 1t took fifteen minutes, and
she called up seven numbers in all.
The message was mine and thanked
her, gave my full name and address
and offered to pay for her trouble.
She waz quite indignant; forbade me
even to mention such thing, but
upon second thought she concluded to
mention it herself. Her bill Is for
s2.S5-35 cents for the seven calls and
So for the fifteen minutes. 1t is upon
that basis that I figured out my vail
uation of $64 a. day. Pretty valuabls
time, seems to me-"

Horse Racing Is Principal Amuse'
ment of Island.
Leading Native Product Is copra'
Made From Cocoanut-Also Ex-
pertinent With All Sorts of
Rubber Plants.

New York.-The volcano in Savaii.
the largest of the Samoan islands
which was awarded to Great Britain
when Samoa was divided up little
more than ten years ago and which
was later ceded to Germany in ex-
change for valuable rights in the Solo
mon and Tonga islands, is still active
and lava has ruined large part of
the island. according to DIR. w. H.
Solf, the governor of German Samoa,
who arrived from Apia on his way to
Germany to take holiday.
Doctor Solf has been governor of
German Samon ever since the colony
became such. He is popular with
American diplomatic and consular
representatives. He speaks English
as easily as his native language. He
had good word to say for Captain
Parker, the governor of Tutuila
Captain Parker, very able man,
Is much beloved by the Samoans."
said Doctor Solf at the Holland house.
Relations between the Americans
and Germans are most cordial and the
natives have become quite pacifed.
They have also begun to show lit
tie more interest in. their work. They
will never work for other people as
contract laborers, however, and this
is the reason why the German govern
ment felt obliged to import Chinese
labor. The Chinese coolies have SO
far been found satisfactory. There
are now about 800 of them and there
is Chinese consul at Apia- The
country is developing fast.
'The leading native product is
copra, made from the cocoanut The
government has made stringent laws
that only a good quality of the stuff
be produced, and this has raised the
value of Samoan copra. The natives
are obliged to plant cocoanut trees
on all idle lands. The white planters
go in for cocoa and rubber. In Apia
there is invested English and Ameri-
can capital beside Germans. The
three nationalities and the natives are
living together tremendously. The
white population is growing. and so
Is the Samoan,
"As for rubber, so far there has been
practically no output For five or six
years we have been trying all sorts
of rubber plants. The samples are
very good. Several companies are
planting, but none of the product has
been exported yet. The revenues of
the country are now five times bigger
than they were ten years ago. We
have a telephone service and good
roads Automobiles are few, but we
have fine horses. In fact, horse racing
is the principal amusement of the
place. There is a sports club. of
which am the protector, and good
prizes are offered. 1t is our boast
that we have the best horses in the
Pacific"

Patients in English Hospital Suspend'
ed by Neck Mt Ropes End
for Nervousness.

London-Hanging from the neck by
a rope has become recognized form
of treatment for certain nervous dis
eases at the National Hospital for the
Paralyzed and Epileptic in Blooms
bury. In wrynech, in particular. this
hanging is said to have given results,
certain cases totally unrelieved by
other more conservative methods OF
treatment responding well to this
strenuous cure. The apparatus used
consists of metal tripod eight feet
in height, with pulley at the top.
Over this pulley is passed a rope at
tached to two large metal stirrups,
well padded with leather, one OF
which fits beneath the patients chin
and the other beneath the protrud1ng
part of the head The principle OF the
treatment is that the weight OF the
patients body is used to stretch the
contracted neck and muscles, which
cause the head to be held on one side.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1910-12-15
UTILIZE HANGING AS CURE

I'VE begin the treatment" said one
OF the hospital staff in explaining it..
by gently pulling the free end of the
rope until the patient is raised up on
his toes. After being kept in this po-
sition for a few seconds he is given a
few moments rest. The second time
he is raised little higher, so that
more strain falls on the neck's mus
cles. The process is continued every
morning for fortnight, the dose be-
ing gradually increased until toward
the end of the treatment the patient
can stand being suspended clear of
the ground for twenty or thirty sec
onds.
Immediately after each mornings
treatment the patient is at once put
back to bed, where he stays until the
next mornings treatment. While this
hanging cure has given good results in
certain cases, it must not be under
stood that We treat all wrynecks in
this way"

For a moment his customary as
surance failed him. The poet was so

as gentle voice as he could assume
on short notice, II don't want to dis,

here is fairly good-and perhaps
little better-it is standing rule OF

sudden snort.
