HAS 20 MINUTES SUNSHINE

There is busy town OF 500 lnhab-
'tants in Colorado where the sun
shines but 20 minutes out OF each "a
hours. This town is River Portal. 1t
Is located in Gunnison canyon and is
the point from which the great Gun
nison tunnel was run that the waters
OF that river might be conducted 10
the deserts beyond the mountain
range. The Gunnison canyon was
steep and precipitous and opposed
great difficulties to the engineers who
sought 10 divert its waters. These
engineers cut road in the solid rock
or the canyons side and at the foot
OF that road planted town. This
town was the headquarters for the
spectacular engineering enterprise
that they had In mind In the town
lived the working force which was
driving the tunnel through the noun
tain.
This town was perched upon the
piece OF ground at the foot of the
great cliffs that was most nearly
level. Even this spot, however, Of
Tered an opportunity of placing the
dwellings only in an irregular way
and one above the other. Here in
the mountains has existed for four
years a busy little village with all
the elements of modern civilization
brought with il into this isolation. In
the picture Uncle Sans publk school
appears as the highest building In the
right hand background
The strangest thing about this vii
lage is the fact that IL has but 20
minutes of sunshine every day. This
is due to the PERCEPTIONS walls that
rise on each side OF the stream and
shut out the rays of the sun. There
is the brief period of 20 minutes be-
tween 11:20 and 11:40 when the sun
peeps over the bluff on the one side
OF the stream and before its rays have |
been cut OF by the high cliffs on the |
other side. This one short span of |
sunlight is all that these people of |
the canyon get year in and year out. |
Artificial light bills run high here.

CzAR'S WARDROBE COSTLY

The czar of Russia is the European
sovereign who spends most on his
wardrobe. The tailor who makes his
ordinary suits says the net annual
profit from them is $4,000, and the
army tailor who is responsible for the
uniforms and court dress makes $751;
600 a year. His majesty never puts
on suit more than three times. and
each one costs about $50. For silk hats
the car pays $26, and $40 a pair for
gloves. Every year, II is stated, he
purchases a sable cape costing $2,400.
King George. on the other hand. is
one of the most economical OF living
monarchs, allowing himself only $780,
900 year TO dress on. This sum is
spent annually by the kaiser on uni
forms alone The German emperor,
however, pays very little attention to
his civil wardrobe He never pays
more than $50 for suit. which he
thinks nothing OF wearing thirty times
The principal luxury In dress he al.
lows himself is In neckties.
With the king Of Spain the favorite
article OF dress is silk shirts, In which
he always hunts, and OF which he buys
many dozens every year at $50 each
The most frugal of all the crowned
heads in the matter OF clothing is the
king Of Norway, who spends no more
than an ordinary well-to-do citizen.

FerryIns Horse over River.

enjoys the experience Whoever the
ingenious native was who first sug.
gested this mode of crossing a river
he probably came from the jungles OF
Assam and had seen monkeys crossing
the river there by means of growing
creepers-there is no doubt that he
found the one method which is ap-
plicable TO the big rivers, exaggerated
mountain torrents, OF eastern Tibet
and far western China. The obvious
way for natives to cross river is by
canoe, but, unfortunately, neither the
Salween nor the Mekong, big as they
are, are navigable even for canoes in
Tibet. The single-way rope bridge
|overcomes every difficulty Two small
platforms are made, one on either side
of the river. one high up the other 20
or 80 feet lower down; stout posts are
driven into the rock and the bamboo
rope is slung across from post to post
and frightened so that IL slopes steeply
from one bank to the other. The
slider consists of a halfcylinder of
wood, about three inches in diameter
having two slots cut IN its upper sur
face, one at either end, through which
pass the leather thongs; to these
thongs the man, baggage or animal is
tied, so that he hangs just beneath the
rope, and, being pushed off the plat
form, the slider carries him safely
over the river. II will be seen, there
fore, that two ropes are necessary at
each crossing, one for going each way.
The advantages of such a system are
obvious. The rope is cheap TO make
and the materials are ready to hand
1t is quickly put in place and, though
II Will not stand the wear and tear of
constant use for very long. 1t can be
replaced in a few hours. II can be
suspended so high above the river that
II is completely out OF reach of sum
mer floods. but very often II is only a
few feet above the water at it's lowest
point, and such ropes are under water
and impossible during the summer.
On the other hand I have seen ropes
as much as a hundred feet above the
river; they look rather alarming, but,
as a matter OF fact. il would make no
difference whether one fell one hun
dred feet or five feet into such a
river as the Mekong in Tibet. After a
few weeks use the rope begins to sag
at the lower end and may require
up. especially IL animals are
being slung across; a man can pull
himself up the last few feet, hand over
hand, or haul up box which has got
stuck, but an animal is helpless unless
he lands right on the opposite bank
Hundreds of these single-way rope |
bridges are in use on the Mekong and !
Salween rivers alone, and they occur
a long way east of this on the La-lung |
md Li-tang rivers, and many others.
But ] have never seen one on the
Yangtze, which is too big a river.-F.

Stains are the great trial of woman
who does the family wash in the old way.
Coffee stains, fruit stains, egg stains, occa-
Sionally blood stains, and many others which
defy all ordinary soaps and hard rubbing
as well. In despair, the housewife boils
the clothes until their fibre is softened and
weakened, but even then the shadows of
the stains remain.
Such stains are easy for Fels-Naptha
soap. They are but minute particles of
colored matter clinging to threads of the
cloth. The Fels-Naptha dissolves them
into tiny atoms which can't cling to any
thing. A rinsing separates them from the
clothes entirely. The stain is gone, leav-
ing the clothes clean, white and pure.
And mind you, all this is done in cold or
lukewarm water, without boiling or hard
rubbing. Fels-Naptha does not in the
slightest degree harm the fibre of the cloth
as boiling does. No other soap, no matter
what it is called, will take out stains with
out boiling. Be sure to get the genuine
Fels-Naptha. ItcomeS in the red and green
