because transportation should be COM
p~aratively cheap, and not subject to
interruption at n season Of the
year.
No matter how great may be the in
crease in the supply Of raw rubber,
the demand for 1t will grow in equal
proportion If the price continues to
decline. It Is estimated that last
years total production of raw rubber
throughout the world vas about 1
900 tons, and the consumption ex-
ceeded 100000 tons, so that accumu-
lated stocks are negligible in quantity
and of themselves would have little or
no effect on the market price. The
increase in production from a to
year since the automobile became i'm
portant has exceeded 5000 tons, and
this alone will account for the con-
sumption Of increased quantities in
the ratio that has prevailed even dur
Ing the last five years. when the COM
petition of the plantations in the East
Indies has begun to be felt.

RIVER AND RING
AN EPISODE THE LONDON THAT ILLUSTRATED
AN OLD AND TRUE SAYING

BY AN IFtONf HOFE
Copyright, 1914, by the Newspaper
Enterprise Association.)
It was dark and gusty night; rain
now drizzled and now whistled down;
the wet pavement cleaned under the
lamps, and the policeman's water
proof cape flashed back as it were an
answering signal. The few people
about scurried hard for home or
some makeshift shelter-nO need to
bid them move on! The policeman
had his beat, and his thoughts, pref
ty well to himself. His beat lay along
the Embankment at the Westminster
end; his thoughts were wholly set on
wondering how long the hands on the
clock in the tower up there would
take to cover what was prOfessedly
only half an hour; the boom of ten
o'clock from Big Ben would set him
free.
He stroIled along with the pom
derous passivity that characterizes
the policeman unemployed. Yet the
next moment his eye-his human
eye, not his professional brighten
ed somewhat at the sight of a grace
full figure leaning against the par
apet just under a lamp. He stroIled
more slowly, aiming at noiselesspess
for he did not wish to disturb the
girl; she was obviously engrOssed in
thought, gazing across. to the wharfs
on the Surrey side, her hands clasp
ed and her elbows resting on the
parapet She was draped from neck
to feet in a long cloak; to the pelt of
the rain she seemed quite Indifferent.
When the policeman was some ten
PAGES from her, he stopped sudden
ly; she had Unclasped her hands, and
by that action revealed a small OBJ
ject which had lain hidden between
them. It was a little case; the next
moment the policeman-her preoc-
cupatiOn allowed him to steal grad

with the other she flung the case in
to the=FiYer. Then she put the ring
on the third finger of her left hand
and seemed to study the effect it
made so placed.
In an instant the policeman be-
came professional. He was by her
side.
Seeing how it looks on your" he
asked.
She turned to him with start,
