investment and Speculation.

When any one is buying a coat or a
fishing rod or a rose tree or laying
down a cellar or setting up library
either he knows what he wants, where
to get it and what to pay for it or else
he takes earnest counsel with his
friends and with the most trustworthy
professional advisers that he can find
and uses all the wits that he and 9TH
ers can bring to bear on the subject In
order to make sure that his purchase
is prudently conducted. He attends
sales, rummages in shops and dis
cusses the matter in his club until he
and it are voted nuisance. If only
half as much time and trouble were
devoted to the careful selection of in
vestments there would be fewer bad
companies, INSCRIPTIONS promoters
and ornamental directors, the world
would be very much richer. and its
riches would show less tendency to
gravitate into questionable hands,

Discovery of Turtle Soup.
According to some authorities, BIS
toll has a special claim to fame as the
city where turtle soup was invented
by a seventeenth century mayor, who
was also a shipowner. The captain or
one of his ships brought home a live
turtle, thinking that his worship would
like to have it in his fishpond. This
happened just as the mayor was about
to give civic banquet, and, deeming
that his guests might appreciate a
new dish, he ordered the turtle to be
stewed. The corporation was so de-
lighted with the novelty that it re-
elected its host to the municipal chair
nine times running.-London Chronl-

The margin by which the Glib

After the games the two teams
went to the LamoreauX hotel
where little spread was fur
nished by the winning team and

Ace of Granite,

1t used to be thought that graSte
was the oldest of all rocks and that 1t
formed the globes first crust. Now,
however, biologists believe that gran
lite may be of any age or epoch. The
GRANTEES found in Germany and the
Vosges mountains Of France date from
one period of the worlds history, those
found in the British Isles from an en-
tirely different period and those found
in the United States from still other
periods. Enormous pressure, combin-
ed with heat and water, must have
been necessary to produce granite.
Some scientists declare that the gran
ties in the highlands of Scotland must
have been formed when 10000 feet of
everything rocks were piled above them
and that those of Cornwall required
10000 feet of rock pressure. In other
localities it is estimated that the pres
sures under which granite consolidated
must have been equal to that of an
everything mass of rock nine miles In
thickness.-New York American.

Why One Feels "Mean."

The average adult man sustains
on every pleasant day an atmos-
pheric pressure of about fourteen
tons at sea level when the barom-
eter is at 80, and a drop of an inch
or more to 20 and below practically
takes off half a ton or more of his
load to which he is accustomed.
Periodically, instead of feeling
lighter and freer, man feels its dis
turbing, depressing effect on his
tissues. He has to become adjusted
to this alteration from normal ten
sity to one of unusual relaxation.

ant weather extending over a num-

II has been demonstrated that seven

great feeding value as one pound Of
grain, when given to pigs or hogs.
and that sugar beets have even a
greater value. SO II is hard to under
stand why pig raisers are 80 careless
about growing root crops for their an.

high feeding value, but they do more
