SURVEYING IN FAR NORTH
Work Has to Ee Done Quickly or Party
Is in Grave Danger Of Being
Frozen In.

North Of the Porcupine river, on the
upper section of the Alaska Canada
boundary survey, the geodesists as
signed to this work by the two gov
ernments found that only 100 days
elapsed from the first navigation UP
the river in May until it was time to
retreat rather than take the risk of
being frozen in.
The highest and most difficult
climbs on the work were probably
made this last season. when one of
the Canadian typographical parties
occupied Mount Natazhat, 1900 feet
high. and joint American and Cana
dian party succeeded in getting up
without about two thousand feet of
the summit of Mount st. Elias, which
towers $4,000 feet above the sea This
party would probably have been sue
cessful in reaching the summit had not
four days snow storm depleted their
supplies to such an extent that they
were forced to retreat to their base. 40
miles away over the glaciers.-En-

WELL ADAPTED TO THE WORK
Oredge Employed to Dig Channel
Through Cranberry Marsh Credit
to Designers.

In Wisconsin there is a clamshell,
bucket dredge in use which at each
shovelful removes an amount of ma
terial much greater than the size of
the bucket itself. The reason is that the
outfit Is being used to dig a channel
through cranberry marsh where the
material to be cleared away varies
all the way from tangled weeds to
hardpan. The eventual object of this
channel, which Is 80 feet wide and 8
feet deep, is to drain 1900 acres of
cranberry land, In one section of this
land there is lake, the waters of
which must be distributed throughout
the bogs during certain seasons of the
year. The use of this type of bucket,
Which, besides digging into hard
ground, will also come away with bush.

etc, hanging from it's jaws, illustrates

SECRET OF RADIUM'S ENERGY
Particles Shot From II Are Declared
to Travel Through Atmosphere
at Speed of Light.

The energy, or power, of moving
object is proportional to it's weight
and its velocity. A motorcycle rum
ming at 80 miles an hour will strike
as hard a blow as a two-ton truck
moving at three miles an hour A
small caliber high-power rifle bullet
will strike as hard as a ton weight
travelling at slow speed. Microscopic
bodies travelling at high velocities
have an energy equal to that of much
heavier bodies travelling slowly.
This is the reason radium possesses
such enormous energy. The particles
shot out from 1t are microscopically
small, but they travel with the speed
of light, or $4,000 miles a second. It
has been well said that spiders web
running ever pulleys at the speed of
light would give enough energy to run
all the machinery In England. A small
stream of water under great pressure
will tear down a mountain more rap
idly than a slow-running river.
With this in mind 1t is easy enough
to understand how electricity travel
ing at the rate of 10000 miles a SEQ
ond is capable Of transmitting thou
sands of horsepower over a copper
wire no larger than a lead pencil.

His CHARGE.

A darky down in Georgia, in a
thickly-settled colored district, was
holding court as magistrate for the
first time, with jury before him.

Hidden Secrets Of Disease.

Although measles and chickenpox
are about the most common diseases
in every household, their germs have
eluded the most elaborate attempts at
detection. Back in the eighteenth
century Jenner conquered smallpox
with vaccinations; but the most indus
: trious search for 80 years has dis
closed no trace of the smallpox mi
crobe. Medical men deal with an un-
known agent today, just as Jenner did
100 years ago.
Reed and Carroll showed how to
conquer yellow fever; no one, how
ever, has succeeded in imprisoning
any micro-organism Of the disease.
Scarlet fever, one Of the most con-
tagious diseases known, has also sue
cessfully hidden its secret. Pasteur,
who discovered a way to control
hydrophobia, searched patiently for
its organism, but did not find it.
Typhus fever, the scourge of Amer
lean cities 80 years ago, still prevails
in attenuated form; but no one has
isolated its agent. Trachoma, a dis
ease introduced chiefly by immigra-
tion, has also so far concealed it's def
mite cause.

Sleepy Guest sues hiotsI.

Should hotel keepers be held re-
sponsible for losses incurred by their
patrons because Of the failure of hotel
servants to wake them in time?
This question has been brought be-
fore the Berlin courts in a suit by a
commercial traveller, who declares that
he missed number of important busi-
ness appointments because hotel por-
ter failed to call him.
The case has not yet been settled,
but the Berlin hotel keepers have de-
cided to protect themselves by post
ing In every room a notice that the
management declines responsibility
for late rising by it's patrons.

AnQleWorm "Earm,u

There are FARMS" it seems, the
products of which bear no relation to
farming as ordinarily pursued. The
latest addition to the list is an angle
worm farm conducted by Mr.. w.
Orton Moon, who lives near Grand
Rapids. Mich. His farm is one of the
curiosities of Michigan. 1t consists
of rs pals, pots, pans and old crooks.
Each receptacle, or field" contains
from 40 to 500 angleworms.
During the last three years his pc
culiar crop has netted him 81 900 an.
nually. He delivers his worms in oiled
paper packages, one dozen to the pack
age, at ten cents each. Here is his
way of rearing angleworms:

them in an ordinary pail, or granite

N0RSEMEN FIRST IN AMERICA
Inscription on Runie Stone Seems to
Prove Claim That Has Been Mat
ter of Contention.

London antiquaries have the oppor.
tunity of judging for themselves
whether Christopher Columbus dis.
covered or rediscovered America. for
at Charing Cross the celebrated
Fletcher runic stone, discovered near
Yarmouth, n. s., by Doctor Fletcher
over one hundred years ago is now
displayed
On this stone strange characters
can be seen, which, it is stated, for
over fifty years, baffled the leading
scientists throughout the world. IT
was left to Henry Phillips, Jr., of
Philadelphia, to decipher the mysteri-
Gus inscription. which he found rep
resented the words. "Harkussen Men
Vara" tHarki's son addressed the
mem.
Searching through ancient writings,
Mr. Phillips found that in an expedi-
tion of Norsemen which left Green
land in the year 1907. the name of
Harki occurred. This expedition
consisting of 100 men in two ships
under the leadership of Thorfinn
kariselfne and Biorne Grimolfsen,
took all kinds of live stock with them
for the purpose Of establishing
colony in Vinland (Massachusetts)
But on their way they landed and
partially explored Nova Scotia mark
land).
To celebrate this event, Harki, one
of their chieftains. addressed his fol-
towers, and apparently this stone was
inscribed in commemoration Of the
event.

MAKING OR SP0ILING SALE
Frequently Opening Expression Used
by cierk Determines Whether Gus
toner Purchases or Not.

In a little talk to his salespeople
not long ago a successful merchant
said:
One most harmful habit INDUCED
In by many salespeople is the repeat
Ing of some meaningless term to any
visitor who comes to the store. We
Will take an expression, for illustra-
ton, that you have all heard, Some
thing for your We hear It in the
store, in the cafe, In the cafeteria, in
the city hall. We cannot get away
from it, yet everybody Is tired of hear
ing 1t.
This term with others, What do
you want?' Anything for your What
Is it" Is that ALL? Nothing more p
Nothing else. is there?' You didn't
want this, did you,' ETC., are disgust
ing to the customers. They mean
nothing and kill sales rather than
get business.
The first thing you do or say when
approaching a customer usually de-
cldes whether you will be able to make
a sale or not. Every day we see pro-
spectlve customers who have stopped
at some counter really interested in
some line of goods, when they are ac-
costed with Something for you? i'm
mediately lose all their interest. Yes,
there is surely something they want,
but what is It? On real hot day
1t may be a cooling, refreshing drink
or what not, but then your question
did not create desire to purchase
dry goods, nor did it suggest any
wants along that line.
IF salesmanship is going to be your
profession, say something that will
bring out reply in your favor, make
some positive suggestion, give some
kind of information, give some kind
of selling talk that will be educating,
that will make your customer see the
benefits of the purchase the same as
you do"

Sheffield Cutlery laus.

Sheffield is famed throughout the
world for its cutlery, but this is no
longer the city's chief or even second
ary industry. In the finest class of
cutlery Sheffield probably still excels,
but good scissors from Germany are
now sold in the English town for less
money than the grinding of the COM
peting article alone costs in Sheffield.
The leading cutlery firm, doing a
world export trade, operates without
the use of telephone, and another,
OF equal fame, occupies quarters of
the most primitive character. 1t is
In the production of armaments and
ship material that Sheffield now
stands to the fore.

CASH AND CUPID FAR APART
Unhappy the Maid Whose Lover Is
Capable Of Thinking Of Filthy
Luere When She Smiles.

Missouri is changing its marriage
laws and a st. Joseph clubwoman is
trying to insert provision requiring
all couples desiring to marry to show
at least 5000. Poverty, shiftlessness
and failure to save cause more di-
vorces than anything else," she argues
She may be right, but the chances are
that the little winged god is not wor-
rying over the attempt to weight his
arrows with a few ounces of gold, re-
marks the Philadelphia Press. 1t may
be foolish to rush into the responsible
ties of matrimony minus cash, but the
world has grown on such foolishness.
Shall thoughts turn to saving of money
when the most glorious girl of the ages
smiles and gently intimates de-
sire for flowers or candy or pic.
MICS or trifles; when a simple Yes"
makes universe too small a gift
In return for that confidence; when
the generosity of soul is bound
less and only credit limited? La
ter it is true that 5000 might come
in handy. Later life may become more
a thing of commerce-but the glory of
real love is that 1t doesn't stop to
count pennies or calculate costs. II it
did-if this had been it's habit in the
ages past-precious few of us would be
here today, either to love or to carry
on trade and make and save money,
and heaven long forefend the day
when Cupid shall be caught stealthily
figuring up his bank balance!
