Provides for Postal EXigencieS.

The Postoftice Department
has met with great embarass-
ment in certain localities
where labor has been scarce
and wages high owing to
land rushes, mining excite
ment or other causes, because
Of it's inability to secure as
sistance in handling the
mails at prices within the
limits of the appropriations.
The committee on postoffice
and postroads has approved
a bill authorizing the Post
master General to meet such
conditions by paying higher
compensation to clerks and
carriers when unusual local
conditions make it necessary.
There is a fund of 1925, 900
out of which such payments
may be met.
The necessity Of some such
authorization as the one ask
ed for is evidenced by the
experience of the Depart
ment at Goldfield, New,
when it was necessary for a
time to pay clerks IS a day;
at Butte, Mont, where the
pay was thirty cents an hour,
at Fairbanks, Alaska, where
the salary allowed by law
was $500 a year and the low
est salary at which a clerk
could be had was $4,000.

Nobody is going to poke
out a good eye for the sake
of getting a glass eye" said
the city salesman, but |
know a man who makes
money on his glass eye. He
goes to Europe three times a
year on business. While
there he does a little trading
in jewels as a side line. 1t is
on the homeward trip that
he turns his glass eye to good
account. In the cavity back
of it he carried two or three
small but valuable diamonds.
Half the duty saved is his
commission on those stones
alone. The customs inspec.
tors have never got on to
him. Naturally they can't
go around jabbing their fin.
gers into peoples eyes.

The Hatpin Evil Solved.

There is a good deal of
selfishness in the way that
women run men through
with their hatpins in crowd
ed conveyances. | have
sometimes thought that /
would fill my pockets with
little corks, and whenever a
pinpoint was about to enter
my optic nerve | would stick
a cork on the pin and thus
render it innocuous. 1t could
be done with all the forms of
the most rigorous politeness.
Just say to the lady whose
pin you are dodging: please
hold your hat still for a mo.
ment. The operation will
be perfectly painless. Then
clap on the cork, remove your
hat, smile pleasantly, bow,
and the incident will have
been closed.-Charles Battell
Loomis in Smiths Magazine.

The Great Treadins Down the Little.

Five hundred years ago
John Ball, looking ont over
England, tells Us that he
saw the great treading
down the little, the strong
beating down the weak, and
cruel men fearing not, and
kind men daring not, and
wise men caring not, and
then with his heart burning
within him, he cries aloud,
''and the saints in heaven
forbearing, and yet bidding
me not to fOrbear.
If We compare our time
with his, we will admit that
although the great still tread
down the little, and the
strong beat down the weak,
that the cruel are at last
becoming afraid of public
opinion, that kind men are
more daring in their schemes
OF alienation than they used
to be, and wise men are more
sOlicitOus. Jane Addams at

and Correction.

Australia's last drOuth
lasted seven years, and there
never has been one like it
since Australia was settled.
At the beginning of this dry
spell there were twenty mil
lion sheep in Queensland,
and when the rains came only
seven million were left, the
dry spell ending in 1903, and
to-day there are as many
sheep as ever. In these
seven seasons the focks have
trebled themselvs. Fortunes
have been made since those
years Of disaster at a single
run, and an irrigating lesson
has been learned that will
minimize their terror if they
should come again. In the
interior Of Queensland the
yearly average of rainfall
sinks to below ten inches;
rivers are scarce, creeks are
few, and in summer dry up
to a chain of water holes.

While making long expedition

numbers Of deer crossing at various
points. We must have seen between
twenty and forty thousand. The hills

them and at dozen or more places

Grinding Tire E.,y Matter.

If an engineer tries to stop toe
quickly his wheels are likely to slip
and spin. That is likely to mean
grinding tire. These steel tires are
expensive. aud the possibility OF
grinding tire fiat is the bane of the
life Of the engineer and fireman.
Grinding wheel, even to the thick
ness of needle, will start 1t to
pounding.
The greatest danger to the wheels
is in applying the air too quickly and
trying to stop the train too suddenly.
You watch and you will notice that
lots Of times an engineer will let his
train run past the station and apply.
ing the emergency brake-stop to lock
the brake-shoes instantly. A sudden
application Of the brakes usually
means that the wheels will slip on
the rails, and when locked wheel
slips it is almost certain to make the
tire fat. Grinding tire often means
80 days for the engineer.

HEAVY CATTLE SUFFER BREAKS

NONE TAGGED FOR EXPORT
DURING ENTIRE WEEK
Hogs Advance Early But Later Market
Reacts-Fair Tone Prevails, How
ever, and All Offerings Are Taken
Sheep and Muttons Steady-The
Market Review.

Chicago, April 23.-Cattle receipts
were only 200 and the market was
without change. Heavy cattle suffered
breaks of 1925 cents this week, and
there We're similar declines for some
light cattle, tho the bulk of light steers
did not show more than 10 cents de-
cline. Not single head of cattle was
tagged for export from Chicago this
week.
Weeks receipts have been $500,
supply considerably larger than antici-
pated and an even 10000 larger than a
week ago, while more than twice the
volume arrived two weeks ago. Also
the run this week stood 13.100 larger
than year ago, and there have been
liberal supplies at western points as
we'll. All around the killers have been
able to accumulate a surplus stock of
beef and at cheaper prices than last
week. There has been plenty of de-
mand to care for the liberal supplies,
but in spite of the freedom of killers
buying they have forced general de-
clines of 1925 cents from last week,
the good to choice grades. barring ex-
treme tops, showing most decline,
while the kinds least hit have been
handy and light weight medium to
good killers of value a t $500 4I.75. The
call for the latter has been moderately
good, both on packing and shipping
account, but eastern shippers had the
fed pretty much to themselves in buy
ing high priced grades for the reason
that demand for high priced beef cuts
has shown a sea sonable slump in the
nearby territory.
Time of the year is at hand for

big cuts of beef Steaks are getting
the call instead of rib and pot roasts.
and on this account killers are chiefly
after this and handy weight medium
priced steers.
Most of the early advance on hogs
was lost near the close. Choice would
not bring over s9-45 and light and
mixed 1910. The market had fair
tone. nevertheless, and all offerings
were sold.
Provision people, discussing the re-
moval of the German restriction on
American meats and permitting their
importation into that country on the
American inspection, without micro
scopic tests, is regarded as favor
able move for the American meat
trade as soon as there is anything
here to be exported. A. S. White. IN
discussing Germany's move, said: 1--WE
used to sell Germany many boxed
m eats when prices were around and
Z cents, but since they have advanced
above cents Germany has not bought
many meats, altho it has taken great
deal of lard. / look to see the hog sit
uation reach its normal condition in
about two years, but it will take
longer time to get back to the normal
in cattle, and prices are likely to re-
main high until that period is reached"
Supply conditions toward the week
end suggest that the country is less
bearish than is market sentiment. The
dollar break early in the week has eff
fectively curtailed supply and it has
been a palpable case of not enough to
go around.

Taste and smeIl.

Psychologists have long known that
many sensations ordinarily ascribe4
to taste are in reality due to smell,
but this fact has been made clearer
than before by the Investigations 81
German savants. Air enters the olfac.
tory chamber, where the nerves con.
nected with the sense Of smell are
centered. both through the nostrils
and through an inlet leading from the
mouth. In consequence, breath d
perfumed air manifests its odor not
only when it is breathed in, but whom
it is breathed out. For this reason
we are sometimes deceived az to the
source Of the pleasure we derive from
things taken into the mouth. the
agreeableness of the impression being
due. in some cases. rather to smell
than to taste.
