Senator Sherman Declares In

ILLINOIS MEMBER SAYS
Also Criticises Provision in Tariff
Bill Taxing Dealers in
Cotton Futures.

That the tariff bill, in lis income tax
section, contains an assault upon the
civil service which viii prove 4 danger
Gus precedent was the declaration Of
Senator Sherman of Illinois in a speech
in the Senate today. He said:
Paragraph O of the income tax sec
ton appropriates 81 ,2O0,Oo0 for additional
employees to carry it into effect. and eN-
euipts them all from civil service laws.
Why Is this necessary? Is the list Of
eiigibles under the civil service exhausted
or unfit? Is the work so difficult as to
be impossible of performance unless
touched and sanctified as spoils? It is
neither.
1t is an assault on civil service. 1t
is d legislative precedent. If this sue

ment departmental appropriations every
time a supply bill makes its appearance
in this chamber. 1t is the first break

:RE[|Cs]
 FOUND IN ARCTIC
Thirty-foot Bone Ribs Support ed Umbrella-shaped Roofs
 In the Stone Age.

A house, or habitation, built by human beings ages upon ages ago with stone utensils, stone knives and axes, was found last sum- mer in the vicinity of Point Bar TOW, Alaska, according to A. l.. Maxwell, government teacher.
 MT. Maxwell and three white men from Point Barrow, while prospecting along the beach of Behring sea in July, discovered high cliff of gravel, the strata i of which it was decided had been piled in that lofty way by ice bergs.
 At a point where the action of the waves had washed away gravel the framework of a prim- itive house was partly uncover ed. The remarkable dwelling was well preserved in the gravel. The roof was made of the ribs of all immense whale or some man. moth beast long ago extinct. The ribs, from 20 to 30 feet long, were set to center column of rocks after the fashion of an umbrella Over this framework skins had evidently been stretched. The gravel was washed in so grad ually that many of the ribs had scarcely moved.
 Convinced of the primitive na- ture of the dwelling because of the fact that there are no such bones seen anywhere in the nor- thern tundra, the men began dig ging to see what lay on the floor and were successful in unearth- ing a stone hatchet weighing P pounds, a stone knife, or skin ming knife, fashioned like the modern drawknife of the wood woRker, and bodaka, or boat bailcr,~a rock shaped like a trough. >
 The uttnsil and tools were car ried back to Point Barrow, but the bones were too bulky to be moved. They are in a we'll pro- tected spot and an expedition vii attempt next summer to bring them and such other articles as may be unearthed out for the purpose of installing in the uni versity museum the house as il stood in the primitive ages.
 The immense bones under S( feet of gravel and the stone tools warrant the conclusion that they ar" of the remotest antiquity.

start toward doing it.

out Of Grape-Nuts and cream. He SAYS:
Il should like to tell you how much
good Grape-Nuts has done my wife.
After being in poor health for the last
Is years, during part of the time
scarcely anything would stay on her
stomach long enough to nourish her,
finally at the suggestion of a friend
she tried Grape-Nuts.
Now, after about four weeks on this
delicious and nutritious food, she has
picked up most wonderfully and seems
as well as anyone can be.
Every morning she makes q good
breakfast on Grape-Nuts eaten Just rs
it comes from the package with cream

is wonderful.

when there is a sale made, someone
must buy, and when prices are forced
down too low by concerted aud ag-
gresstve selling, the market will some
time right itself, and may so t3o high.
Because one extreme Is apt to, or does
follow another, does not prove that it
eyens things up for the producer. The
producer may get the worst of it.

A thing that once served a good
purpose may become bad. Supply and
demand should govern values. If they
don't there is something either in law
or business practice, that does govern,
eXactnesS, as to what -four would cost
him at some future time, so as to
sell it profitably to some customer
who wanted to buy at a fixed price for
future delivery. The miller does net
have the wheat on hand and Goes not
want to have to sto-e and pay for 1t
until he needed it to grind, to fill this
order. Where there is a real need We
generally find a means. So the mar
ket for dealing in futures was estab-
lished. Now this man-created method
has over-topped and superseded the
fundamental law of supply and de-
mand. Now, the price OF our grain
is not measured by its cost, our need
or the worlds need; by a gambling
