Iranan PiIferinq OF MANS.


One deplorable effect Of the Turco-
italian war is the bold pilfering of the
mails in Italy-especially of those from
from the United States. The Italian
government, doubtless struggling I'M
der the onerous task of carrying on
the war, seems to be quite unable to
insure safe handling of the mails.
That this is petty thievery is indicated
by the fact that not alone registered
mail, but ordinary letters as we'll are
being stolen right and left. Two or
three weeks ago the Italian police
captured a man with forty stolen let
tiers in his pocket. An American stu
dent at the North American college In
Rome reports that he receives only
half of the letters that his relatives
write him. He has lost six letters
since January J., 1912. Americans IN
Italy, unable to get any satisfaction
from the Italian post Office officials,
are asking their relatives and friends
at home to procure some effective &C.
ton toward safeguarding this interna'
tional correspondence,-National Mag
azine.

from business, is visiting the south

colony of artists by the western sea.
He has secured three hundred acres of
land along the beach at Cardiss, which

Waterproof Coats Of Grass.

In the tropics Of Mexico, where tor
rental rains fall a part Of each year,
raincoats are a very necessary part OF
mans apparel. Owing to the intense
heat which prevails In the summer
season the ordinary rubber raincoat
cannot be worn. A rainproof coat Is
made from native grasses and Is worn
by the men OF the middle and upper
classes. The grasses are woven close
together, and it is impossible for the
rain to beat through them, no matter
how hard the storm may be. Some OF
these coats are made with hood
which protects the head as we'll as the
body.

Laws on Vealing Calves

It is gratifying to find that the
New York Chamber of Commerce
has turned its attention to the eco
nomic evil of butcherlng calves,
SAYS an exchange.
The St. Louis Times says a spec
ial committee of the organization
named has been making an inquiry
and has made recommendations 1t
finds that the practice of killing
calves has gained ground in an
amazing fashion and that the loss
to the world in it's meat supply as
a result of the practice is almost
incalculabIe.
The number of calves slaugh-
tered has increased 100 per cent in
the last 10 years, )" the report says.
During 1911 there were slaughter
ed 100000 calves, weighing $780,
900, 600 pounds. If they had been
allowed to live one year they would
have produced more than 4 900, 600
pounds of beef to supply the search
ty we now feel"
TIE committee also finds that
other nations have adopted drastic
measures for the correction Of the
evil in question. Certain South
American countries, for example,
have laws prohibiting the slaughter
ing of fem ale calves.

the local "staff", who, in turn, gave
it the compositor to be brt ught to
