TRADE IN NEW GUINEA.

There is no country in West At
RIGA which is more accessible and
whose government, perhaps, is more
benevolently inclined toward British
enterprise than is the government of
Portuguese Guinea. Such is the
opinion expressed by his majesty's
consul general at Dakar.
It's area is $4,000 square miles,
and, for its size, he states, the col
ony is probably the richest in west
Africa. None of the foreign firms
in the colony seem to be able to com
pete with foreign cotton goods, con-
siderable quantity of which are an
nually exported from Manchester.
These goods are popular among the
natives and are becoming more so.

TAKE INTEREST IN SKELETON
Remains Found in England. Remark,
able for Large Size Of Head, Have
Aroused Scientists.

Professor Keith of The British
Royal College Of Surgeons has been
investigating the history of skele-
ton dating from about 1000 b. c.,
which was recently found during ex-
cayations by J. Reid Moir at the base
Of the Red Crag at Thorington hall,
Wherstead, near Ipswich. 1t is the
skeleton Of a twelve-year-old boy. His
stature must have been much the
same as the average height of a mod
ern boy Of the same age, but the large
size of the head is remarkable. Close
to the skeleton was a good vessel for
the use of the boy on his arrival in
the next world. The vessel is of
type which was only made in the late
neolithic and early bronze periods,
1t is decorated all round with marks
pierced by thumb nails, method of
decoration which is very ancient.
Professor Keith said:
owe are trying to get hold of the
people of every period, going as far
back as we can. We are trying TO
follow the English people right
back, beginning with the Roman
period. We shall then be able to de-
scribe the people who lived in any
period and the changes that came
over them. So far there has been
very little change"

EASY TO PRESERVE HEALTH
Immunity From Disease May Be Ac-
quired by Exercise of Care
and Proper Living.

Perfect health is the best possible
immunity from disease. Millions of
germs are breathed in with every
breath We take, but their injurious
effect is nulifed so long as the
health is good. Many of the germs
so taken are necessary for health,
others would be disease breeders if
they fell upon the proper soil. The
habit of deep breathing that the
blood may be purified with the oxy-
gen thus obtained, at the same time
keeping the bowels open, with such
articles Of diet as contribute to the
manufacture of good red blood, will
go long way toward making a per-
son immune from ordinary diseases.
When an epidemic is around the
persons first affected are those with
debilitated blood otherwise every
body would go down together. So
little is necessary for the production
Of good, healthy blood that there is
little excuse for any person having
anything else, and with such
healthy condition there is the slight
est probability of acquiring any of
the diseases that are so frequent in
some communities. The responsible
ity is largely an individual one, and
if everybody exercised an intelligent
supervision Of his habits and his sur
ropndings there would be practically
no reason for the existence of boards
Of health or any other such restric-
tive measures.

What OF THE HOME

In a great many Of our large
cities a u7 ovement is being start
ed for the purpose Of sending q
ship load Of Christmas presents
to the orphans in Europe. The
idea taxes because it is new and
novel and affords an opportunity
for a lot Of cheap notriety. The
fact t. a a ship load of food would
give more relief does not matter.
There is no glory il sending food
to the starving.
There are plenty yet who would
not give a droit TO relieve q lame
beggar but would lay out ten to
see a dear Indian. "
A great daily in another city
comes forward with a scheme
for having the orphans Of Eur
ope adopted into the homes Of
Americans. That, like the Christ,
mas ship, is more or less com
mendabIe; and it, too affords an
excellent means Of advertising

COST COUNTRY LARGE SUM
Late Shah Of Persia Had Rare BaubIe
Set With Precious Stones
Worth $50OOoo.

Among the royal treasures Of Per-
sia is a pipe set with diamonds,
rubies and emeralds to the value, it
is estimated, Of no less than $780,
coo. This pipe was made for the
late shah and is said to be even more
valuable than his famous sword.
In the matter of swords, it is said
that the gaekwar Of Baroda, who on
the occasion of the coronation of
George V in India added to his fame
by snubbing the monarch, possesses
the most precious blade in existence.
It's hilt and belt are incrusted with
diamonds, rubies, sapphires and en-
eralds, and its value has been put at
$1,000, 600.
There are many costly swords in
the treasure rooms of eastern and
European rulers, notably those Of the
czar of Russia, the sultan of Turkey
and the king Of Siam, but the sword
of the gaekwar outshines them all.
The most valuable sword of Europe
is that presented by the Egyptians to
Lord Wolseley. The hilt is set with
brilliants and the whole saber is es-
timated to be worth $4,000.

THROWS IT OUT

New York Dee. 15.--The 100000
libel suit instituted by James NJ
Lynch, former president OF the Inter-
national Typographical Union of
North America. against John Kirby
and other directors of the National
Association of Manufacturers. for
passing resolutions charging the union
with responsibility for the dynamite
explosion which killed q score Of en-
ployes in the Los Angeles Times bifild-
ing in 1910, was dismissed by Justice
Guy in the supreme court today
In sustaining the demurrer of the
directors, Justice Guy stated that no
officers Of the union were specifically
mentioned in the resolutions and held
that where libel is against a whole
class, no single individual can main
tain a civil action for libel against
its author
The court also stated that criti-
cisms against corporations, organlza-
lions and associations have been free
" made in New York state since 1916,
without exposing the critics to pro-
secutIon for civil libel by any and
every aggrievcd person or officer Of
tho organization so criticized" and
that the present case does not fur
nish sufficient ground for departure
from this wholesome rule.
