Meat-eearIno Tree.

In Mexico grows a tree called the
Avocado, whose pear-shaped fruit is
reputed to be composed Of the sub
stances which are to be found in meat
It contains about twenty per cent. OF
fat and many other ingredients OF
great food value, and one good-sized
meat" pear is quite sufficient to make
meal for the average man.
The reason why the fruit is SO little
known at present Is because it is
grown nowhere on large scale, what
few trees there are grow round the
huts of the natives, where they -four
ish with little care and afford easy
meals for the indolent owners.
Cultivated on extensive lines 1t

that serious subject, the high cost of
living.

Costs Less Than a TWO-Cent
POSTAGE tamD

An average Of less than a cent and
q third a pair Is paid for the use Of all
our machines in making two-thirds Of
the shoes produced in the United
States assuming that all our ma
chimes are used. The most that can
be paid for the use Of all our ma
chimes in making the highest-priced
shoes is less than 5% cents pair.
The average royalty on all kinds Of
shoes is less than 1913 cents pair.
From this we get our sole return for
the manufacture and use of the ma
chimes, for setting them up in facto-
ries and keeping them in order. You
pay two cents for a postage stamp or

Two Republican Leaaeles.

Without stopping to deduct current
liabilities, which reduce the actual
treasury surplus to a bare working
balance of around $60,000,O00, we can
frankly concede that the Republican
financial legacy to the Wilson admin
istration is an improvement on the
legacy left to the last previous Demo
cratic administration.
Some little cash in the treasury is
better than no cash. Even small
working balance is better than left

Soda Lake In Africa.

In English East Africa is the rich
est bed of soda in the world. Engt-
neers say that it contains 2OO,OOO,O0O
tons. The lake has q surface of more
than so square kilometers. During
the rainy season, which in this local
ity is short, its surface is covered
with shallow layer of water When
a block of soda is taken out, another
forms, and the natives say that this
occurs so quickly that an equal
amount of soda may be distracted for
a number Of years from the same
place.-Harper's Weekly.
