PECULIAR ENGLISH CANAL

Between Worsley and st. Helena,
in the north of England, is the most
remarkable canal in the world. 1t
IS underground, from end to end,
and IS sixteen miles long. In Lam
cashire the coal mines are very ex-
tensiye, half the country being I'M
dermined, and many years ago the
duke of Bridewater's managers
thought they could save money by
transporting the coal underground
instead of on the surface. The ca
nal was constructed and the mines
connected and drained at the same
time. Ordinary canal boats are used,
but the power is furnished by men.
On the roof of the tunnel arch are
cross pieces, and the men do the
work of propulsion by lying on their
backs on the coal and pushing with
their feet against the crossbars on
the roof.

CHRISTOPHER AND THE ANT
Being the Modern Version of an Old
Fable That Is Familiar to
Every Reader.

A Grasshopper had spent her
summer in a merry whirl of gaiety,
and when winter came she was near
ly perishing with cold and hunger.
She went to community of Ants
who lived near by and asked them
for the loan of food and shelter to
tide her over until the following
summer.
"What have you been doing all
summer" asked the Ants, who did
not believe in indiscriminate charity.
81 have been singing and dane
ing" she replied.
They were about to send her away
IN scorn when the son of one of the
Millionaire Ants stepped forward
and said: ''Do you say you have been
singing and dancing? Let's see what
you can do"
Thereupon the Grasshopper, hav-
ing had splendid training, sang mel
Iifiuously and danced 1ivinely.
Good for you, little one" said
the son of the Millionaire Ant.
Thereupon they eloped to the balmv
sunshine of the Riviera and lived
unhappily ever after.-Life.

IN POSITION ID GIVE ADVICE
Elderly Gentleman, Inadvertently
Made Target, Surely Entitled to
Gentle AdmonItIofi.

Two young men in a. Massachu-
sets town went hunting on a holt
day. There was little game about,
and the hunters sat down in a grove
to rest. An object which appeared
to be a round block of wood lying
against tree, and which was about
100 yards distant, was selected as a
mark.
The first one to fire held too low,
as the bullet was seen to strike the
ground before it reached the mark.
The other held higher, and the
young men were pleased to see the
bark fly from the tree an inch above
the mark. AS they were about to
shoot again the mark was seen to
move, and presently it was perceived
TO be the head of a man. Slowly it
arose to sitting posture, and then
stood erect. 1t proved to be VEN
cradle gentleman of the town who
had taken walk, and, becoming
somewhat fatigued, had lain down
to rest. He had fallen asleep and
was awakened by the bullet striking
the tree above his head.
The old gentleman joined the
young men. and in conciliatory
tone remarked chat he didn't want
to interfere with their sport none,
but thought they ought to be little
more keerful in handlin' guns"

spoke TO him OF the project in his
mind, and went over with his friend
the details OF the some-day -to-be-
erected monument. Sketches were
made and plans formulated during the
next few years and. finally, some ten
years later, Colonel Edwards began to
see his way clear to provide the con-

Mr.. Bush-Brown had meantime been
doing notable work in his art, and
growing in reputation to be esteemed
as one OF Americas foremost sculp-

Finally, some five years ago, Colonel
Edwards invited Mr.. Bush-Brown to
visit him at his home in Kanawha.
and there, along through the month of
August, plans were formulated for the
creation of this work of art, and Mr..
Edwards entered into a written con-
tract with the sculptor and made his
first payment on account. The first
series of serious sketches and models
were then prepared by Bush-Brown
and the development of the statue be-
gan to go steadily forward. The fol-

READ THE ADVERTISING.

Newspaper advertising is so gener-
ally scrutinized that some people will
say this suggestion is unnecessary.
Still there are some people left who
would not discover a notice that $40
gold pieces were being given away,
even if prominently printed in every
newspaper. There are some who pay
needlessly high prices, because they
do not pay careful attention to news
paper trade announcements.
The publisher does not consider
that when his readers have seen
every news item, they have by any
means exhausted what the publica-
tion has to give them.
One of the greatest services the
newspaper renders is providing an
avenue by which merchants and
tradesmen can give information
about their offerings. Only by keep
ing track of these offerings can the
public know where the best values
are to be had. This newspaper hopes
that none ofV its readers is paying
needlessly high for living costs, by
failure to learn about the buying op-
portunities which these columns re-
port from issue to issue.

THE CROWDED COLLEGES.

Reports from the leading colleges
are to the effect that this falls en-
tering classes are much larger than
ever before.
In town known to the writer
some twenty years ago, only two boys
had been to college for a generation.
Within the past five years a delega-
tion has gone from every high school
graduating class. This tremendous
change is found almost everywhere.
Ten years from today there will
be vastly increased body of highly
educated men and women. They will
be powerful force in behalf of good
government and social progress.
AS the college doors open. wider,
college degrees become cheaper.
Many men are going to college for a
four years loaf and sports, or to
form personal pulls to help them in
business later. The colleges are
