WASHINGTON, April 22-President
Taft's Canadian reciprocity agreement. sup
ported by all but handful Of democrats
and opposed by a majority of the repub-
leans passed. the house OF representatives
last evening by a vote OF 2e5 to 49,
With nearly 200 democrats in control, and
their action endorsed by many of the re-
publloans, the bill wss adopted with no
amendments, and in almost identicaily the
form in which 1t passed the house in the
last session.
The bill seeks to put into effect the
formal agreement reached between Presi-
dent Taft and members of the Canadian
cabinet for a reduction of tariff rates on
many articles and free trade in many
others, across the Canadian border.
Added to It, by the democratic leaders,
is a section which authorizes and re-
quests" President Taft to make further
efforts TO secure still freer trade relations
with Canada in the form Of additional
reciprocal relations.
Measure Never Threatened.
The passage of the bill marked the close
OF fight that had ragged in the house
for six days. In that time the safety Of
the measure was at no time threatened;
but the democratic and republican leaders
working for its passage, conceded all the
opportunity desired by its opponents for
debate and protest.
Following the same policy, amendments
were admitted in the house for almost
every section of the bill and in each case
they were rejected by an overwhelming
vote.
Ten democrats voted against the bill
on it's passage, while 1877 democrats voted
for 1t. As in the case when the bill passed
at the preceding session, majority of the
republicans were found against 1t, the
party vote being 81 for and rs opposed
Representative Berger of Wisconsin, the
socialist member. voted for the bill and
Representative Akin of New York. who
ranks as an independent, voted against it,

WORK OF HEN ACCELERATED
Electric Food Heater Invented to
Serve Warm Meals in Chicken
Yard at All Hours.

There are all sorts of devices to &C.
celerate the barnyard hen to greater
activity in the matter of her chosen
profession Of laying eggs. Nearly ev-
cry chicken raiser has some individ-
ual opinion on this subject, but there
are great many who adhere to the
notion that the hens do their best
work in this direction when they are
given warm feed. The preparation Of
this is a matter of some considerable
trouble, and for the sake of conven-
fence many owners make a compro-
mise by giving the hens a warm meal
once day. Now, then, If a warm
meal once day is good for the chick
ems, u warm meal all day long should
be so much the better, and, acting on
this suggestion, an inventor has made
an electric food heater by which it
will be possible to serve warm meals
at all hours in the chicken yard. Cur
rent is conveyed to the device by
means of wires connecting with the
household circuit, and this, passing in
to small electric heater, keeps the
chicken food at very desirable tenn
perature at all times. The invention
is also Of value In the winter time
when the drinking fountains of the
poultry yard freeze up in short time.
This heater will keep the water in
proper condition at all times. The
amount of current consumed is said to
be very small.

Quinine and Men.

The worlds quinine market ia some.
thing about which the world doesn't
know great deal. The source of oui.
nine has usually been considered the
corner drug store, where it grows in
little glass bottles or gelatin CAPSULES.
But there is quite a disturbance in the
qu1nine market.
Thirty years ago the principal sup
ply 1t quinine came from the western
coast of South America. A small
amount was obtained in India and Cey.
Ion. The average quinine content of
the cinchona bark was two to three
per cent. Better methods of handling
the cinchona bark. however, have re-
suited In recent years in yields Of from
SIS to even II per cent. Monthly sales
of quinine bark are held in Amster-
dam. Java, which was scarcely in the
market at first, now sends from IS to
70 tons Of quinine sulphate a month
there. These enormous increases in
production have brought down the
price.
1t is thought, however, that the con-
tinued opening Of dark places and the
increase in the population will succeed
in causing the demand to meet the
supply.

All jewelers. say that watch

suits. It watch is permitted to run

the spring may on rewinding take on
a somewhat different tension. This
difference may be extremely slight,
out 1t may be enough to affect the
running of the watch.
While some watches are long lived,
many are short lived, the long lived
watches being of course those of fine
quality that are also we'll cared for.
But there is limit to the life of any
watch that is kept constantly in use.
Inc best OF watches, like the best of
anything. will wear out in time.
A matchmaker had lately brought
IN to him for repair a watch 1875 years
old that had been running practically
continuously. 1t might be difflcult to
say OF just what duration it's intervals
OF rest had been. but it was supposed
to have been run practically continu-
oosly, and though it had stopped at
least once. it was still in fairly good
condition and good for some future
use. But this was an extraordinary
case. Most watches, however excel
lent they may have been originally,
would with constant use wear out in
far less time.
Sometimes there are brought in to
jewelers. fine old and once valuable
watches whose owners, desiring now
10 ouy new watch, wish to offer the
ola watch at some price in exchange;
but 1t is Of no value except for the
weight of the metal contained in its

which are of no value whatever. ex.
cept that at long intervals there may
be found among them a wheel or a
part that may serve in some other old
time watch brought in for repair.

good average watch. with fair care.

and fine watch SO years; it might
last Is. but so years would probably
be nearer the figure.
1t may be thought that a superior
watch would last longer than that but
really the wonder is that this delicate
piece of mechanism running year after
year ceaselessly should run so long
And as a matter of fact, comparative-
ly few watches are put to the final
test OF their endurance. Fashions
change in watches as they do in ev-
eryth1ng else. and men tire Of their
old watch and want another, and they
are more than likely to buy a new
watch before the old one stops.-New

AUTOMATIC SIGNAL FOR CAR
Operated by Controller Handle IIlunI.
mates Sign az Warning to Street
Car Passengers.

August May has invented an auto.
matte danger signal for street car pas
sengers, which, it is believed. will be
the means of averting accidents. A
small housed" circuit closer, as
shown at 13 in the drawing, is ar
ranged on top of the controller box
OF an electric car, and in the path of
movement Of the controller handle,
says the New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat. This circuit closer, acting in
combination with the controller han
die. operates to illumine two sets of
advertisements, which may be located
anywhere inside or outside the car,
but which are preferably located on
the upper and lower plane of the
now unoccupied car roof.
When the controller handle is in the
"current-on" position and the car is in
motion, one set of advertisements is
illumined. When the car stops to put
of passengers and the controller han
die is in the "current-off" position
the first set of advertisements Is
darkened and the second set illumined,
and vice versa. The first set Of ads.
may be on the lower roof plane and

TALK THROUGH A TELEPHONE
Strained, High-Pitched Voice Abso-
luteIy Not Needed in Carrying On
Conversation Over Wire.

Most men-and women-use more
nervous force in speaking through the
telephone than would be needed to
keep them strong and healthy for
years.
Nature knows no strain. True sci
ence knows no strain. Therefore, a
strained, high-pitched voice does not
carry over the telephone wire as we'll
as low one, writes Annie Payson
Call, in Nerves and Common Sense
1mpatience, rudeness, indecision and
diffusement blur communication by
telephone even more than they do
when one is face to face with the per-
son talking.
It is as if the wire itself resented
these inhuman phases of humanity
and spit back at the person who in
suited it by trying to transmit over it
such unintelligent bosh.
To a demanding woman. who is
strained and tired herself, wait of
10 seconds seems 10 minutes. have
heard such woman ring the tele-
phone bell almost without ceasing for
IS minutes. l could hear her strain
and anger reflected in the ringing of
the bell. When finally she got her
party" the strain In her high-pitched
voice made it impossible for her to be
clearly understood. Then she got an
cry again because central" had not
given her better connection" and
finally came away from the telephone
nearly in state of nervous collapse.
and insisted that the telephone would
finally end her life. do not think
that she once suspected that the
whole state of fatigue which had al
most brought ali illness upon her was
absolutely and entirely her own fault.

BUYING FAMILY MEAT
MARKET CONDITIONS SHOULD BE
CAREFULLY STUDIED.
No Matter What Cut 10 Selected It
Can Not Be utilized to Best
Advantage Unless It 10
Well Cooked.

The choice of meat cuts should cor
respond to the needs of the family
and the preferences Of its members.
Careful consideration of market condi-
tons is always useful not only to
make sure that the meat is handled
and marketed in sanitary way but
| also to take advantage Of any favor
able change in price which may be
due, for instance, to a large local sup
ply OF some particular kind or cut of
meat. In towns where there is oppor-
tunity for choice, it may sometimes be
found more satisfactory not to give
all the family trade to one butcher:
by going to various markets before
buying the hOusekeeper is in better
position to hear of variations in prices
and so be In a position to get the best
values. Ordering by telephone. or
from the butchers boy at the door
may be less economical than going to
market in person as the range of
choice and prices is of course more
obvious when the purchaser sees the
goods and has a chance to observe
market conditions Each housekeeper
must decide for herself whether or not
the greater convenience compensates
for the smaller range of choice which
such ordering from description en-
tails. No matter what the cut, wheth-
or expensive or cheap. it can not be
utilized to the best advantage unless
it is we'll cooked. Poorly prepared
meat dishes are almost inevitably
wasted at the table. AS an illustra-
ton Of the losses arising through un-
wise selection and poor cooking may
be mentioned facts observed in die
tary studies carried on by the expert
ment stations. In many families
where the income was fairly good the
table and other conditions were far
from satisfactory. In such cases the
marketing was quite commonly done
by child or someone without knowl-
edge or experience. In a particular
instance. the selection was expensive
steak, which later was so badly cook
ed that it was hardly possible to eat
1t. A cheaper cut well cooked would
have been much more satisfactory as
well as more economical.
There is sometimes an advantage
in using canned meat and meat prod
ucts. and. If they are of good quality
such products are wholesome and
palatable.
