The Mount Vernon Record is a

meats at fair prices and bought good

Now 1t so happened that a rich farmer

IOWA OPINION AND NOTES.

John T. Hmilton can preach about
reducing taxes, but IL Iowa land keeps
advancing by leaps and bounds the way
1t has the past twenty years. neither
he nor any other politician will shave
the eax receipts. There is a strong
streak of unreasonableness in the man
with 160-acre farm worth 5000 an
acre who objects to a taxable value
of $50 an acre. and he is very unmind-
ful of the things that have gone to
make that value-growing towns. good
roads. public Improvements and
handler markets" says the Anamosa
Eureka
The very fact that the election OF
Connolly to the senate would be
counted an endorsement; of Wilson's
economic policies makes it very clear
that this is just what Iowa voters do
not wish to do" says the Council Bluffs
Nonpareil. "A. B. Cummins stands for
fair American protection. He is OPP

Rubber az n Plavthjnu,

The world owes something more tan
gible than improved health to its ball
games, for 1t was its suitability as a
plaything that first led to the use Of
india rubber. One Of Columbus COM
panions recorded how the natives Of
Haiti played games with balls made
of the gum of a tree" centuries before
the plant and its possibilities were
known in Europe. The Spaniards in
Mexico. however. used it ut an early
date to waterproof their clOaks. In
view Of the present wide utility Of
rubber 1t is interesting to note that 1t
made its first appearance in England
as curiosity for erasing pencil marks.

WATERPRooFING CLOTH.
whey Got the Idea From an Acct
dent In a Dyehouse,

ee"t III Dychouse.
Inc waterprooflng OF cloth so univer-
sal today was unknown twenty five
years ago. In 1890 Thomas Fearnley
wiley Of Bedford, England, took out
the first patent for the process known
Is waterproofing cloth.
He got the idea from an accident in
Yorkshire dyehouse. Certain goods
lad been wrongly dyed, and the work
men were directed to wash out the sur
plus logwood color with alum. After
the goods had been dried the improve
ment was so marked that the dyer Or
dered a repetition of the alum wash
Ing. The cloth was sent to the wet
ting machine. but the workmen found
that they could not wet 1t. 1t passed
through the water and came out dry.
Thus was the discovery made that
cloth could be waterproof and vet re-
main porous.
The process used today is as follows:
Cloths intended for rainproofng are
first freed from grease and are then
saturated In specially constructed ma
chimes with the clear liquor obtained
In adding together solutions Of pure
sulphate of alumina and acetate of
lead. The lead is precipitated out, and
the acetate of alumina is dried in the
fabric. The cloth undergoes further
eeatment with wax, and in one sys-
TEN wax is applied frictionally from
u block under the pressure OF pneu-
matte roller. Under the method more
generally used the wax, or mixture of
wakes, is melted by heat and applied
In an enthusiastically fine film by the
action of ductor roller.-New York

DESCENDED TO ROYALTY.
Lament Of Bernadotte, Who Was Once
a Marshal of France.

Jean Baptiste Jules Bernadotte, one
Of Napoleon's marshals and king of
Sweden and Norway. was born at Pau,
France. on Jan. 26, 1854. and died in
Stockholm on March 8. 1914. He was
the son of u lawyer and was educated
for that profession. In 1850 he enlist
ed in the Royal marines and subse-
quently took part and achieved historic
distinction in the French revolution.
He worked his way up until he be-
came one of Napoleon's marshals, and
he ended by being not only the ruler,
but the popular sovereign, of Sweden.
whose language he really never mas
tered. With extreme intelligence and
in this initiating Napoleon himself he
surrounded himself with a kind of roy
al medieval atmosphere.
He always remained Frenchman at
heart and. though he soon ceased to
be on even friendly terms with the
man to whom he owed everything, the
news of Napoleon's overthrow at Wa
terloO filed him with grief. He was
then still only Prince Of Sweden and
did not proclaim himself king until
February Of 1918. when Louis XVIII.
actually found himself compelled to
send an envoy to bear his congratula-
tons to brother sovereign who had
begun life as one Of the humblest sub
jects Of Louis XVI. He lived long
to see Napoleon's remains tax

on this, he exclaimed:
