An Ancient Doll,

If you ever go to independence hall
In Philadelphia ask to see the quaint
little doll that is carefully preserved
there. She came over from Paris
dressed in the fashion Of Louis XVI.
long before these United States were
In existence. She came to bring into
william PENIS woodland a flavor OF
the old world that was much sought
after in those days. She served two
purposes-frst, she was fashion plate
from which the ladies of those days
eagerly made their dresses; second
when she had served her purpose in
this way she was given to the children
to play with. Think how well made
she was and how carefully she has
been preserved to outlast the wear and
tear of the centuries! She may well
be called the 'oldest inhabitant' OF
Philadelphia.

BrotherIy Love,

Ee and Chi were two young princes
in an ancient Kingdom of China called
the Lone Bamboo kingdom, for in old
en- times China. like Britain, was split
up into a number of little kingdoms.
which often went to war with one an
other.
When the king was about to die, in
stead of commanding that his eldest
son, Ee, should become king he said
that Chi. his third and favorite son,
should rule. Afterward, however, Chi
would not consent to be king, for he
said that would be putting himself
above his elder brother, whom he loved
and urged to take the crown. But Ee
replied, Did not our father command
that you were to be kingT And in or
der to put an end to the discussion he
ran away from home. Thus, says the
historian, Ee disobeyed not his father,
while Chi kept true the relationship
that should exist between brothers.
Both felt that brotherly love was great
er than throne. The two princes.
runs the story. met on the great Sun
mountain and lived together in hiding
until their death.

ENORMOUS SLIDES
FILL THE PANAMA CUT.
bc,zs5,s13 More Cubic Yards Exoavated
Than Were Originally Calculated.

New estimates on the excavation of
the Panama canal have been made
public by the isthmian canal commits
sion. These estimates are materially
higher than those Of July, 1910 The
total increase over the estimates of
that date amounts to 12,785,613 cubic
yards, raising the total estimated ex-
cavation for the entire canal to 1885,
823,379 cubic yards.
The chief reason for this increase in
the estimates is found tn the huge
slides in the Culebra cut. These slides
present the most embarrassing prob
lem with which the engineers have to
deal. 1t is stated officially that these
increased estimates will not increase
the estimated cost as determined in
December, 1908, nor affect the time of
completion, because the cost per cubic
yard has decreased and the capacity
per excavating unit has increased as
the work has advanced.
At the same time it is apparent that
the task of having to excavate this
enormous mass of material delays the
time Of completion Of the canal beyond
the time when 1t otherwise would be
finished. The statement that the in
creased excavation will not delay COM
pletion merely means that in making
the original estimates for finishing the
canal in the year 1915 ample allowance
was made for just such hindrances as
the present one.
By reason Of the slides in the Culebra
cut about 100000 cubic yards have
been added to the estimates. At that,
the slides in this region Of the canal
are said to be in more satisfactory con-
dition than in any September since
1907. One Slide at Empire contains
about 100000 yards of material. The
exact amount cannot be ascertained
owing to the fact that the depth Of the
moving mass is unknown. This slide
is unique in that steep side Of the
bank, ridge of earth, moved toward
the prism of the canal from the back
and both sides at apparently one time.
One of the interesting phases Of the
work of construction relates to the
enormous quantities Of dynamite re-
quired 1t is estimated that about 49,
100000 pounds Of dynamite remain to
be unloaded before the canal is COM
pleted. To promote safety new dock
for the unloading Of dynamite is being
established ON the Atlantic side some
distance from Colon and Cristobal. 1t
is feared that if unloading is continued
at the present docks shipping in Colon
harbor and the localities Of Colon and
Cristobal might be damaged. No ex-
plosion has occurred, however, since the
first shipment arrived seven years ago.

Seeret Societies.

Secret societies are so ancient that
their origin Is lost in the mists of the
past. They existed, in Egypt, Persia,
India, at the earliest times with
which history or legend gives us any
insight. 1t seems to be natural for
men to organize such societies for both
good and evil purposes. Nearly all the
ancient religions were Of two faced
character, popular and secret, or, as
they are called "esoteric" and Tex
oteric," the first for the few, the in
itiated, the second for the rank and
file. The philosophers would teach one
thing to the masses Of the people and
another to the select few who made up
the Inner circle" Cicero tells us that
the wise men Of Rome and Greece be-
lieved quite differently from the COM
mon run Of Greeks and Romans.

II you are subject TO constipation,

relief and their reaction Is harmful and
sometimes more annoying than consti-
