Regular postage stamps may now be
placed on all pracels post packages. One
of the confusing and unsatisfactory fea
lures of the law has been the requirement
of placing special stamps upon the pack
ages, otherwise they were not forwarded.
This caused so many packages to be held
until regulations ws.re complied with,
that the confusing feature has been re
vokel by the Government. and hereafter
ordinary postage stamps will be used.
The special stamp requirement proved
such trouble. maker for this universally
popular system of package transportation
that the Postmaster Generals action in
resembling it has greatly simpli6ed mat
tiers. In future the regular postage
stamps will be good ON all classes of mail
matter and for all purposes.

Work of the Beaver.

The beavers conservation work is
accomplished principally by means Of
the dams he constructs. These dams,
we are told by Enos A. Mills, author
oft'In Beaver World" save soil. check
erosion, reduce food damage, store wa
ter and help to sustain stream flow.
provide waterholes for fish and are
helpful in maintaining deep water
ways by reducing the extremes of both
high and low water and also reduce
the quantity of sediment carried down
into the river channels. When we
take into consideration the fact that at
one time in the country's history the
beaver population was upward of a
hundred million" it Is possible to real
lie what may have been accomplished
by him along conservation lines. Like
other wild creatures OF mountain and
plain he suffered from the advance Of
civilization, though he was prime fac
tor In bringing this about.

The searchIieht and Fog.


IL will be noticed on a foggy night
that the beam of searchlight seems
abruptly to come to an end If the light
be pointed upward. On the other hand,
If the beam be directed horizontally &c
will gradually fade away into nothing.
Why should the vertical beam behave
in this curious way? The reason Ia
not far to seek. Where the end of the
beam seems to be at just that point
does the fog end. for the beam cannot
be visible to us unless there are small
particles In its path. This circum-
stance is of great assistance to sailors
in judging the state Of the weather,
since they can determine the thickness
or depth Of the fog. They can also
tell by throwing the beam horizontally
whether the fog is Of great extent or
whether it exists only in patches. II
the fog extends great distance then
the beam will become gradually more
and more dim. II the fog exists only
In patches. then the beam Is lighter
in patches, and If it proceeds through
place where there is no fog at all
that part of the beam win be black or

upon its warmest regions, and the
rapidity with which it is cleared of ice.

A Queer Bargain.

Some young men from Boston ap-
piled to an old fisherman up IN the
country to see If he could get some
bait. He thought he could and started
OF. Three hours afterward he appear
ed with q ten quart pail full Of angle
worms. The boys were alarmed lest
there should not be money enough in
the party for such wealth of bait.
but they put on bold front and some
one asked. "How much do we owe
your" well. | don't rightly know"
answered the old man: "the ground Is
kinder solid and the worms Is far
down, and it's been hard on my back
to dig 'em. but I've half mind TO go
fishin' myself tomorrow, an If youth
give me half the bait wen call It

There is a simple way to outwit these

age If you are buying pictures buy
for arts sake, not for names sake.
Names can be forged, age can be sjmu

possessions In themselves, no matter
from whose hand you get them.
True. this rule requires the buyer to
study pictures and furniture until he
knows something about them. But
without such knowledge the owner

The Short Term senatorslllp.

An effort probably will be made this
week by the old organization leaders to
line upa fight against Blair Lee for he

anything, the leaders themselves are
much in doubt. Senator Lees enemies
seem to have strong desire to fight him.
but lack plan.
There are many politicians who say
that nothing will be done by the old or
ganizatiou. In fact. there are many who
say there is no real State org nization at
present. but only few leaders here and
there, and that there is nothing In the
hoped-ior 6ght against Lee. either on
Lees part or on the part of any of those
proposed as candidates against him.

into coherent. effectual whole. And
without harmonious actioa of all men

As the situation now stands Senator
Smith. Congressman Talbot, John j.
Mahou, Arthur P. German and Dr. Geo.
Wells are classed as leaders of the forces
which would like to make fight against
