We can now ship hosts of troops with the greatest ease from all parts of the empire to the scene of warfare yet in December, 1854, when Napoleon III offered to send re-enforcements of 10000 men to the Crimea, if we would convey them, the government was on the point of declining, on the ground that no transports were available for such work It was eventually decided to ask some of the great steamship companies for assistance, and at the next cabinet Sir James Graham an nounced that this had been done.

While making his midnight collec- tion a Wayne avenue letter carrier was greatly mystified recently when he discovered a new ten-dollar bill lying loose among the mail matter in the box. As even Santa Claus would hardly remember him in such an in formal fashion, the carrier turned in the money at the Chelten avenue post office the same night.
 Early next morning a greatly agi- lated young lady appeared at the of flee and explained that she had start ed out to mail a letter and pay the druggists monthly account the eve ming previous. On the corner she had met an acquaintance (here she blushed) and while engaged in con- versation had absent-mindedly mailed the banknOte instead of her letter. Philadelphia Record.

Battle of Alma.

Sixty years ago soldiers of Britain and France, fighting side by side, achieved one of the most brilliant vic tories in the annals of war. Never has the valiant fighting spirit of the British troops been better shown than when, on September 20, 1854, they waded through the River Alma, amidst shower of bullets, fought their way up the precipitous banks on the other side of the river and, nav ing burst through the dense under growth of vineyards, drove back the Russians, who were led by Prince Menschikoff.
 The British troops were led by Lord Raglan and the French by Marshal St. Arnaud Three thousand three hundred of the allies were killed and wounded, heavy loss when one con- siders that the British forces num- bered only about twenty-seven thou sand and the French thirty thousand.

A BIT OF HISTORY.

Experience has shown that the clos ing up of the saloons and the outlaw ing of the liquor traffic has always proved a great benefit to every legi innate industry. A chapter in the history of Ireland furnishes a graphic illustration. During the years 1S0910 and 1S13-14 the distilleries of Ireland were stopped on account of the fam inc, on the ground that these distil- leries wasted the grain that might otherwise be used by the people as food The results were surprising The consumption of spirits fell off nearly one-half. On the other hand, there was a tremendous increase in the demand for dry goods, blankets, cotton goods, sugar, hardware. crock cry, groceries and other necessities, thus showing that a year of scarcity with prohibition is better than a year of plenty without it.

NEW INDUSTRY FOR AMERICA
Camphor Is to Be Installed in Philadelphia.

The American Camphor corporation, incorporated for the manufacture of gum camphor, has taken the building on the southeast corner of Lehigh avenue and Edgemont street, which is being fitted as the pioneer plant in the manufacture of this product in the United States, remarks the Phila- delphia Ledger.
 While it's product will be available for pharmaceutical purposes, the cor poratiOn purposes catering to manu- lecturers of celluloid, who take about eighty per cent of the gum camphor imported into this country.
 Equipment for giving the factory an output of 25,00O pounds day will be installed in a few weeks, and by mid winter the plant is to be in complete operation, consuming daily 3,200 pounds of turpentine, the base of synthetic camphor As a by-product, the company will have daily produc- tion of about five tons of glauber salts, which enters into the manufac- ture of dyes.
 This cOuntry's consumption of cam phor is estimated at 12,500 pounds a day, of which the Philadelphia factory when running full can, it is said, SUD- ply about twenty per cent.

CHANGE NAMES OF STREETS
Frenchmen Find Time for Small Things in Midst of National
 Crisis.

The French are a curious compound of earnestness and lightness. No mat ter how imminent a crisis, or how threatening the ruin, they never fail to pay all due attention to the correct out ward form. In the present tremendous crisis of French affairs one would think that the last thing the Parisian author ities would concern themselves about would be the naming of streets. And yet, according to recent dispatches, the city council, upon hearing of the brave defense made at Liege, passed an ordinance changing the name of the Rue de Berlin to the Rue de Liege.
 This was more than duplicated in 1870. After the catastrophe of Sedan, the ruin of Napoleon ITS empire and the establishment of the infant repub- lie, the national assembly, sitting in Paris on matters for the safety of the country, while the Prussians were laundering down upon the city, con- cerned themselves largely with chang ing the names of things from "lmperi' all and Royal to National" Among others, they passed, after a heated de bate, a decree changing the name of the royal Bengal tiger in the Paris zoo to that of the national Bengal tiger and instructed the custodians to see that the signs were changed at once.

P0L!TENESS ON THE WIRE
Really Seems to Be a Fact That Good Manners Are Forgotten by TeIe-
 phone Users.

"I don't understand why anybody is impolite over the phone" remarked a woman visiting i'll New York, unless he is cowardly or unless the phone, like wine, brings out the real charac- ter of people. And I especially don't see why women should be impolte to women.
 The most provoking instance have had in many days occurred right here in New York. An old and dear friend of mine whom had not seen in years had married and come to New York to live. Her married name was Blank leigh, let us say, but l did not know her husbands initials and l had no idea where she lived. It was my first visit to New York and wanted to~see her.
 My only hope was that she was in the telephone book and to it 1 went l found six BlankleiGhs, any one of whom might be she, but which one? It was for me to find out and 1 began with the first one.
 T asked for Mrs. Blankleigh and she came to the receiver. l apologized and explained why l had called and asked if she were my old friend The way she snapped out that she wasn't and rang off was something awful.
 The following three were variants of the first, not much better and not any worse. Only one of them was man and he just laughed and said there wasn't any Mrs, Blankleigh in his house at present but if land then l rang off.
 The fifth was the one 1 sought and l didn't have to seek any further. Now I am thinking whether or not to call up the sixth and see if she is any more polite and considerate than the others And it would have been just as easy to have been polite and nice about it and tried to help me, wouldn't it?"

BUILD JAW OF SILVER WIRE
Philadelphia Surgeon Suggests Opera ton That Will Replace Loss of
 Bone

Surgeons and medical students at tending Jefferson Medical College and Hospital discussed with great interest a remarkable operation suggested by a leading surgeon at clinic on Wednesday in which an artificial jaw place of one whose entire removal IS made necessary because of infection or death to the bone.
 Removal of the jaw sometimes IS necessary if the life of a patient is to be saved. It always results in great disfigurement, as we'll as serious inter ference with swallowing and speech. A surgeon attached to the hospital said the suggestion of using silver wire for building up an artificial jaw was an idea worth the most serious attention. He added:
 Under certain circumstances we can remove the jaw, but leave the perl osteum and muscle attachments. This new idea is then to take silver wire twist it into the proper shape, and cover it with the periosteum. Under good conditions I have no doubt that there soon will begin process or bone growth from the periosteum, which will form over the silver wire model. which will act as a scaffold for the new bone growth. After a time we can begin to remove small sec tions of the silver wire as the new jaw grows stronger. The regenera- tion taking place from the periosteum should, according to all surgeons can surmise, form quite a good new jaw. Philadelphia Public Ledger,

WHAT LIQUOR MONEY WOULD Do

The American Grocer enumerates some of the benefits which might ac- crue to the citizens of this country if the annual drink bill, $1,724, ,607, ,519, were turned into legitimate channels, namely:
 Tt would pay interest and sinking fund on the amount necessary to buy comfortable homes for nearly nine million families.
 Tt would buy a suit of clothes for every man and boy and a dress for every woman and girl in the United States, with enough left over to buy a pair of shoes for everybody.
 If the money spent for drink were spent for homes tenancy would disap- pear in the United States within one generation.
 If it were spent for education every child in the country would receive a college education.
 If it were spent for automobiles, every family in the country would own car before 1924.
 If it were spent for religion, it would within less than a decade carry the Gospel to every living creature
 If it were spent for railroads, it would buy every mile of railroad in the United States in ten years.
 If it were spent for government, it would pay all the expenses of the United States. with enough left over to pay the bonded debt of all the states of the Union"
