COULD EXPORT CEMENT AT
 ONCE.

The United States imports relative ly little hydraulic cement, only S9.- 630 barrels having been imported in 1913, whereas the domestic produc- tion in that year was nearly 93000,- 900 barrels. There is little or no need to import any cement, for all parts of the country are not fairly well supplied with mills for the manu- facture of Portland cement, and the supply of raw materials is practically inexhaustible. A significant feature of the cement industry however, is the fact that, though only about so per cent of the normal cement-produc- ing capacity of the country is en- ployed at the maximum, there is often an overproduction; yet the exports of hydraulic cement have scarcely ex- ceeded 100000 barrels in any year, this amount being only about per cent of the total output-not suffi- cient to take care of the surplus pro- duction in Q year of great activity
 There seem to be excellent reasons for stimulating the export trade in cement as rapidly as possible, for, although the export of a relatively bulky and low-priced material such as cement does not promise large di- rect profits t. an individual producer indirectly the creation and mainten- ance of an export trade should bene- fit the industry at large through the opportunity afforded of disposing of surplus stocks and thereby tending to maintain steadier prices.

Chance For Cement Makers.

American manufacturers have not
 1et made the most of their or pol tuni- ties to establish greater export trade, according to Geo. Otis Smith in Bulle- tin 599 of the United States Geological Survey. Statistics show that the ex- port of cement from England, Ger many, Belgium, and France not only have been considerably greater than those from the United States, but have borne a much higher ratio to the pro duction in these countries. The quan- tity of cement exported by France in recent years is estimated to have
 cached at least 23 per cent of her pro duction, and that of Germany about IT per cent. There are few cement plants in South American countries, and in
 he past these countries have been sup piled mainly from Europe. There is evidently an opportunity now for the cement industry of the United States to secure this trade.

He Knew That Money Talks.

He couldn't talk English, though per haps he understood little, but he knew thing or two. He was riding on huckster's wagon past a public school His partner had gone into a house to sell some truck, and he was learning the business. His clothes were ragged and shabby, much like those of the stage tramp. The chil- dren started to jeer at him, making remarks about his clothes. He seemed to understand that they were making fun of his clothes, so he reached in his pocket and pulled out the bromidic roll of bills that would choke a cow" These bills he waved at the children, for apparently he believed that money would insure respect. even if he did have oil clothes.

FRANCES NEW MINISTRY


 Although the announcement of the reorganization of the French minis try followed closely the news of the check to the French army in Belgium. it is not to be inferred that the resig- nation of the ministers was actually caused by the advance of the Germans. It Is customary in France, as in other countries, in times of great peril, to bury party animosities in the general desire to secure as strong and capa- ble a government as possible in which all parties have equal representation. France has done now exactly what Great Britain did at the beginning of the war. Perhaps France needed the stimulus of the unexpected fall of Ma mur to induce the Socialists to con- sent to representation in a body in which they had decided they would never serve But, as might have been expected, they have proved themselves Frenchmen and patriots rather than mere doctrinaries.

YOUNG FRENCH OFFICER
Paws For HIS Patriotin Heroism.

Like Rostands ''Cyrano de Bergerac"
Lieutenant de Fayolle. who fell at
Charieroi, fighting heroieaIly at the
head of his men, would not abate a
feather of his ''panache". His regi-
ment entered into action on August o.
In accordance with the vow which,
with his young comrades, he had taken
on leaving the military school at St.
Cyr, few months before, the young
Lieutenant put on white gloves to re-
ceive his baptism of fire. When his
section was given orders to charge
with the bayonet, De Fayolle drew
out from his haversack the white and
blue plume which he wore on his shak o
on parade davs at st. CYr, thrust it in
to his campaigning cap, ard crying
Forward advanced at the head of his
men.
The white and blue plume made him,
OF course, mark for the enemy s
sharpshooters, and he fell with bullet
through his forehead. His regiment
cherishes the plume and the memory
of very gallant death. The name of
Lieutenant Alain de Fayolle has been
mentioned in disr atches. -. - -..

WlFE's DREAM A LUCKY ONE
English "Coster" Accepted Omen and
Was Well Rewarded for His,
to Him, Daring Venture.

On Sunday morning before the Derby
Of 1873 q coster named Timson was
awakened by his wife singing out lus-
tily in her sleep, "The hoy in yaller
wins the day''-an old-time popular
song. Timson gave Sal a thump and
told her to shut up, and, both being
now wide awake, asked what all the
row meant.
Il dreamt | was on EPSON Downs, !"
she said, "and saw a jockey in yaller
pass all the others, while the crowd
shouted, The boy in yaller wins the
day. If there's a jockey in yaller on
Derby day, Ned, I'd put bit on him
If / was you
Ned again advised her to keep a
still tongue, but the dream had its
effect on him. On the great day he
saw during the preliminary oanter
that the jockey riding Doncaster was
in yellow Mr.. Merry's colors-so he
put all the money he had GO shil-
ings) on the yellow boy" and pock-
eted 60 golden soyereigns for his
pluck.
II was the making of him. He
bought a new horse and cart and
christened the former Yellow Boy,
while Sal had reason to exult about
her dream London Tit-Bits.

Worth.

IA young merchant went abroad. and
after many years, having large for.

When he reached home, he found
That his relations had gone to a feast
at a country house few miles away.
He was so eager to see them that he
did not take the trouble 10 change his
clothes, and was wearing the things
he had used on board ship coming
home.
When he entered the large hall
where the guests were all assembled
his cousins showed very little pleasure
at the sight OF him. Il was plain 10
them that he had come back poog
man.
A young Negro who had accompas
Med him from abroad was quite upset
by their GOODNESS to his master, and
said: "They must all be very bad
men to receive you SO cruelty"
WYATT a minute whispered the mer4
chant, land you will see a change Ia
their looks"
He quietly put a fine diamond ring
on his finger, and, loi every face began
to smile, and they pressed at once
around him and called him Cousin
William"
Has a simple gold ring the power
to charm people like thfsg" asked the
black servant In perplexity
ut is not that" replied his master;
but the ring is worth a good sum, and
they guess from 1t that I am rich, and
riches are dearer to them than any
thing

negro. They think more of yellow
metal and piece of glass than all
my masters virtues and loving kind
ness"

Dou Saved Lives Of Family.

Extraordinary sagacity on the part
of a canal-boat dog saved the lives
Of a family of three on board at mid
night. They were asleep in their
cabin hunks on barge lying off
Wheelock, near Sandbach, In Ches-
hire, England, when the man In charge
Of the boat, John Meredith, was awak-
ened by the animal springing on the
bed and barking. Meredith, still in a
somnolent state, knocked the animal
of, but In doing SO discovered there
was a big rush OF water. and that the
boat was fast sinking. Tho terrified
man aroused his wife and child, and
the three only just managed to
scramble from the cabin and gain the
embankment when the boat sank,
Meredith being compelled to wade
through water which was up to his
waist, with the child in his arms It
Is believed that the laundering was
due to a heavy load of iron bars,
which caused portion of the bottom
of the barge to give way. Hundreds
Of persons visited the spot to see the
bed clothing, pots, pans, and other
domestic articles floating on the wa
ter. Later the boat was raised after
her cargo had been removed.
