WHY BRlAR WOOD is SCARCE.

Worshipers of "NIy Lady Nico-

not to tarry, for we hear shat the
price Of the briar root is to be raised
by 20 per cent, and this almost inn
mediately. The news was confirm
ed by j. S. Weingott, a New York
tobacconist.
''The increase in the price Of
goods" explained Mr.. Weingott, sis
chiefly due to the advance in the
price of labor and the recent strikes
that took place on the continent
especially at st. Cloud, in France
which is the center of the trade il

eruptions have ruined hundreds o
acres of plantations in the Cam

southern Italy. Hence the scarcit
of the wood at the present time
and, as an inevitable consequence

least appreciated feature of the

within a DAYS travel one will come
upon strong climatic contrasts.
Whether you go TO the lovely, cool
mountain plateau' or down to tire
warmer cities of the sea level. YOU
will find that though there are the
changes of the seasons, still the cli-
mate from day to day varies little.
BY dressing properly one does not
feel the heat so much.
Manila, the hottest place in the
Philippines, is often intensely warm
in March, April and May. Yet
prostrations never come as they do
in New York in midsummer. and
above all there are cool nights
everywhere.
Perhaps no country in the world
possesses so many scenic maryels as
the Philippines; regions which, were
they known, would attract tourists
The world over. There is the beau
tiful Taol volcano, rising from the
middle of lake; there are the vast
{ ordilleras. not surpassed in beauty
and grandeur by any ranges in the
world; there are the wonderful
IGountain plateaus and valleys COW
c~ed with seas of rich waving grass
and bordered by forested hogbacks
which project into them as eapcs
project into the ocean.
Here wild deer and boar roam in
great abundance, while occasional |
herds of wild carabao move clumsilyI
over the ground. Perhaps for days
