COMPLETION OF CANAL.

The Panama canal will be completed
within the time limit. Indeed, large
steamer could pass through the great
waterway at the present time with per.
feet safety. The work has been well
done in spite Of the almost insur-
mountable engineering difficulties, and
will forever remain as a monument to
the skill and devotion to duty OF Col
onel Goethals. Much has been written
and said regarding the effect Of the
opening of the canal upon the COM
merce of the world. That it will be
a wonderful aid cannot be doubted, but
to what extent the different localities
west Of the Rocky mountains will be
benefited no one can foretell Al
though an inland state, Utah expects
a substantial increase in trade when
the big freighters begin 10 pass
through the canal. Happily the time is
at band when all the theories will be
put to the test.

SUIT FOR MILLIONS.

The receivers Of the st. Louis 4 San
Francisco Railroad company nave
brought suit against the former direc'
tors of the road for something over
$4,000 900, 1t isn't friendly suit, for
the attorneys for the receivers are the
same men who recently appeared before
Judge Sanborn and asked permission to
file the suit on behalf Of the stockhold-
ers. The court declined to allow the
stockholders to bring the action but ap-
pointed their attorneys special counsel

practice sscribed to the former
directors Of the Frisco was a develop
ment Of modern business in the twi-
light zone of morals. It became easy
for 6nanciers with liberal views on eth

promised such large profits. They found
it less troublesome to their consciences
TO take money in this way than to de-
prive their uejghbor of his goods by the
more direct methods of the burglar and

moral difference was that the fnancier
obtained greater plunder than the petty
criminal. We are beginning to see these
things more clearly now than formerly

WAR CLOUD" AGAIN.

The Dews that Turkey aud Bulgaria
have formed an offensive alliance
against Greece is not surprising, in

has no hope of ever expanding at the
expense of the former. All the terri

waged BY the allies against the "sick

Of her soldiers have been killed or

Men. women and children are dying
by the roadside for lack OF food and
shelter and there is no relief In sight,
except such as is contributed by pity
ing citizens Of foreign lands. The
Turks, although still suffering from the
war with the allies, are extending what
aid they can to the stricken Bulgars,
perhaps not wholly actuated by motives
Of charity.
The Bulgarians thirst for revenge on
Servia and Greece, and an alliance with
Turkey seems TO be the only method
by which they stand q chance of gain

or IN the wrong in the struggle over
the division of the spoils does not
make a particle of difference. The Bull

NEED MEAT IN THEIR DIET
Scotch Specialists Make Assertion That 1t Should Be Supplied to
 Young Children.

There is prevalent misconception that meat is not good for young chil- dren. Drs. A. Dingwell Fordyce and E. W. Scott Carmichael, two famous Scotch specialists in the diseases of children, in an article on "Glandular Tuberculosis in Children published in the Lancet, combat this old fash toned idea. They write:
 Constantly we see otherwise healthy children suffering from indi- gestion due to overfeeding with bread, porridge, potatoes, biscuits, cakes, sweets. Comparatively rarely do we see indigestion due to excessive meat eating. Most certainly large amount of meat in the diet of healthy young child is likely to cause digestive trou- ble. But the point is that an adequate supply of flesh meat and fish in the daily diet Is not only beneficial, but is, as a rule, necessary to hes 'th.
 During the first half of the sec. ond year the child should get this ami nal food in the form of egg, bacon or fish. Thereafter he should be given daily at dinner little chicken, rab. bit or butchers meat. We consider that deficiency of animal food-in the shape of meat, fish and eggs-in the diet, along with the common co-exist. ent carbohydrate dyspepsia. is a wide spread and important underlying fac tor In the development of various in- factions, and is more particularly one of the primary causes of cervical glandular tuberculosis

The Tangerlne.

When the tangesine orange was first introduced into China, it was so highly esteemed that it was given as a gift to the mandarins, and hence became known as the mandarin or ange. Our tangerine is simply a descendant of the ancient mandarin orange.
 In the last few years there seems to have been a falling off in the popu- larity of these dainty, little glove or anges, as they used to be called. Pos. sibly it is because the modern navel orange, with its sweetness and de- hghtful flavor, Is so plentiful.
 Even so, the appetizing little tanger- inc ought to have a bigger place than 1t has at present. It would seem that the very fact that the tangerine skin peels off so readily would insure it's popularity But there are fashions in food. as well as in clothes, and the wheel of fashion revolves from time to time. Perhaps when bustles are in again the tangerine will be a daily visitor to our tables.

The Winner.

A benevolent old lady in one of the streets which still retain the red brick houses of old-time New York looked out of her parlor window one day and saw a man walking up and down the sidewalk, apparently in great dejectfon. There was something pa thetic and appealing in his manner; so she took dollar bill put it in an envelope and wrote on the envelope, Never say die"
 She slipped out of the house in the most casual manner she could assume and handed the envelope to the man as she passed him.
 Next day the same melancholy man called at her house and presented her with ten dollars.
 Its funny he said, you're the only one that backed that horse called ''Never Say Die"

Some of the terms used to describe apartments are mystifying to the un- Initiated, declares the New York Sun. For instance, railroad fiat" conveys little idea to the novice until 1t is ex- plained that this special type of apart ment has no private hall. The back door and the front door both open into the public hall, and the rooms follow one after the other, like cars on a railroad train. which accounts for the expression railroad fiat.
 A box fiat" is one degree up the scale, for here, while there is no en- tire length of private hall, there is a sunicient slice taken from the bsd. rooms so that one may walk from the parlor to the dining room without crossing the two intermediate bed rooms. The tiny hall is boxed in, hence the name box fiat.
 A walk up" speaks for itself and IS easily translated into non-elevator nat. As matter of fact, many of the most desirable of the older apartment houses come under the head of walk ups"
 A push the button" is still another type which may apply to any of the others. It is never misleading. as it graphically describes its mode of en. trance.
 All these fine points of distinction can be gleaned from a days apart. ment hunting.

HIS PERIOD OF ENDOWMENT
Farmer Surely Had Earned Rest, But He Waited Just a Little
 Bit Too Long.

Once there lived a farmer who worked so hard he was too tired to go to church on Sunday, says Frank Tel ford in Farm and Preside His hired men refused to stand for the first and last call to breakfast at 3:45 in the morning and left before the end of the week. His wife milked the COWS and hoed the garden because help was so hard to keep. The farm CT voted against hard roads, and when he was elected to the school board hired for teacher young girl just out of high school, because she would take the job for S30 month In short, he squeezed the dollars so hard the eagle screamed. He would steal acorns from a blind pig.
 When the farmer was fifty he had a half section of good black land in the corn belt and money in the bank. He moved to town to enjoy hard earned rest. But his stomach was so tired of corn bread and bacon that J went on a strike and the farmer 2.e milk toast. He could predict a storm before the first cloud appeared by the creaking of his joints, and he had to call for help to turn over in bed One day his doctor said he had made enough money to buy a new touring car and the farmer died of heart dis ease.
