Big GUNS To GUARD
| THE PANAMA CANAL
Plans Completed for Putting High
Power Batteries on Tobosa
Island. :.

Panama. Sept. n.-Preliminary plans
and specifications have just been COM
pleted quietly by army oficers here for
placing q battery. high power mortars
and possibly other guns on Taboga
Island. twelve miles out in the Pacific
Ocean from the canal entrance and the
present forts built to protec 1t.
This new battery il Of twofold interest.
Two years ago the fortifcations Of Ia
boga Island was proposed as necessary to
prevent a hostile fleet using 1t as a shell
ter from which to destroy the present
forts. but the military authorities held
that the guns on the present forts could
prevent this.
The present plan to fortify the island
after two years delay also suggests
whether after such q delay 1t will be re-
allied that the canal dredges without the
assistance Of steam shovels are insuffi-
cient to prevent such canal blockades
as the one we have just had which Is
liable to occur again at any moment.

St Louis. Sept. l2-when Miss
Matilda Dolive. 27 years old, was mar
rIed recently in East St. Louis to
Frank H. Dearing, Al. travelling
freight agent for the Georgia Rail-
road. she bound herself doubly. by
the ceremony and by a prenuptial
agreement, TO remain his wife until
death should them part. In the pre-
nuptial agreeemnt she pledged her
self never to sue for divorce or sep
arate maintenance.
She was not opposed to divorce on
principle, she said, but she thought
that a man and a woman should know
each other so we'll before marrying
that there would be no chance of the
marriage being a failure. She and
Dearing had known each other four
years.
The explanation given by Dearins
to Justice Driscoll. who performed the
ceremony after certifying the agree
ment. was that he wanted to shield
his children from the possibility OF
divorce or separate maintenance liti-

BY noon Helen had all the things
crossed off her list and Warren's s
trunk ready. His clothes were always
easy to pack-a man has so few ac-
cessories. Over her own trunk she la
bored all the afternoon.
The problem of what to take and
what not to take was always a diff
cult one. Warren always fumed at her
for taking too much.
Now, remember, we're not going
to the Fiji islands," had been his last
warning that morning. I'VE can al

heavens sake don't try to take the

Perhaps. after all. she had better
not put in that electric iron. Her blue
chiffon would be all that would need

do that for quarter.

Although quarry interests OF Jasper

troduce a resolution to Investigate the
question of whether Contractor X r.
Gill sis using the best stonen for the
construction of the new, state capitol,
Phelps will not stir up the matter, 1t
is believed
When Phelps was asked about this
report he said that he had heard moth
ing about 1t. "All | am concerned
about is that the contractor uses the
best stone in building the capitol. l
understand that the stone being used
is from Carthage" he said. Z
The contractor has opened quarries
at Cassyille and Carthage and is
dressing his own stone. A sample
wall vas constructed, which was APP
proved by the commission in SO far as
the stone was up to the standard Of
quality approved by the commission,
the standard being a chunk Of Car
thage stone. The commission sought
to find out whether Gill had used any
blocks from Cassville, but was unable
to detect them or to find out.
Gill is setting stone on the walls,
and this is said to come both from
Carthage and Cassville. the stone be-
ing identical and OF the Burlington
variety.

TALK ON WESTERN
CANADA.
You Don't Have to Lie About
Canada-The Simple Truth
Is Enough.

The natural resources Of the coun-
try are SO vast that they cannot be
told in mere figures. Man can only
tell Of what tiny portions have done.
He can only say, Il am more pros
porous than / eve expected to be-"
And yet II a farmer expects to sue
coed on land that he has been forced
to pay $50 to 800 an acre for he ought
to feel assured of attaining prosperity
when he finds the richest prairie soil
at his disposal absolutely free. If he
has a little capital, let him invest it
all in live stock and farm implements
he will find himself ten years ahead
of the game. Some day such a chance
will not be found anywhere on the
face Of the globe. But now the same
opportunities await you as awaited
the pioneer and not one hundredth
part Of the difficulties he encountered
and overcame. Success in Canada is
made up of two things, natural re-
sources and human labor. Canada
has the one and you the other. A
postal card stands between you and
the Canadian government agent. If
you don't hold these two forces and
enjoy the fruits of the result 1t is your
own fault.
Debt and Canada viii Not Stand
Hitched.
You want a coy home, a free life,
and sufficient income. You want edu'
cation for your children, and some
pleasure for your wife. You want in
dependence. Your burden has been
heavy, and your farm hasn't paid.
You work hard and are discouraged.
You require a change. There Is a
goal within sight, where your children
will have advantages. You can get a
home in Western Canada, freedom,
where your ambitions can be fulfilled.
If the Prairie Provinces of Canada are
full of Successful Farmers why should
you prove the exception? Haven't you
got brains, experience, courage? Then
prove what these are capable of when
put on trial. 1t is encouraging to
know that there is one country in the
world where poverty is no barrier to
wealth; own your own car; own your
self; be somebody.
For facts write to any Canadian
government agent. Advertisement.

Plants From BeIuium.

There is pathos in the fact. recently
announced by government officials,
that during the last three months
there have come to this country from
the most afflicted nation in the world,
larger numbers of beautiful plants
and flowers than from all the rest of
Europe combined.
Little Belgium, a smoking, desolate
waste, is seeking to save her flowers.
and she has taken the place which, in
times of peace, is held by France. The
plants are being sent to the United
States through Holland. After their
inspection for plant diseases, they are
turned over to brokers, who sell them
to individuals.

When you darken your hair with

another application or two, your hair
