HackIogs Made Of Stone.

1t will surprise many persons OF the
present day to be told that the back
iog" of which we read SO much in old
time stories was a large stone, a por
u stone being preferred If possible.
This stone vas buried in the ashes,
and on top was placed the back
stick" The back stone in those primi-
tive times played a very important
part in the economy of early house
keeping. Matches were not then In
vented. Flint, steel and tow we're the
only means Of lighting a fire or a
lamp. Imagine for a moment the
Bridget Of today thus engaged, with
the thermometer ten degrees below
zero in the kitchen, The stone, to-
gether with the ashes with which 1t
was covered, served to retain fire and
heat through the night, and all that was
necessary in the morning was a little
kindling and gentle use of the indis-
pensable bellows and a fire was as
readily made as at the present day.

Water and Health,

The part played by water in daily
life is not very we'll understood. Be
ginning with the bath, water is not
only a cleansing agent, but a healer
and a beautifer. A daily bath will do
much for the beauty of the skin and
the health of the body. The morning
glass of water. hot or cold, clears away
the accumulation Of the night from the
throat and stomach and prepares the
way for brea kfast and its digestion.
Taken at night, water acts as a sooth-
ing agent, and swallowed in liberal
quantities Through the day it is an
agent of health. curing many obstinate
cases of intestinal trouble.

Joy in Service.

"A life lived for self can never be
good nor great. There is only one
way to save a life and that is to lose
1t in service to others. Every child
is entitled to a chance ito do the
things" which he is able to do for
others. Service of this kind brings
home the highest joy as the years
come and go. It is true, this doing"
affords in childhood days an outlet
for physical energy; but better than
that it forms the habit of living for
others, which will some day prove to
be a fountain of perennial joy to
him.

Moisture Absorbed by Granite.

A coat made OF granite, while per-
haps not the most comfortable article
of wearing apparel-although granite
in thin sheets is f1exible-might be
thought to be storm proof; yet granite
will absorb a considerable amount of
moisture. If a cubic yard of granite
that had been completely dried out
were immersed in pure water, it
would, according to the United States
Geological survey, after a short time,
take up four gallons Of water.

There is Catarrah in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
Fer a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly fail
ing to cure with local treatment, pro-
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven Catarrah to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrah
Cure. manufactured by F. ]. Cheney &
Co, Toledo, Ohio, is the only consti-
tutional cure on themarket. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. It acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials.
Sold by Druggists. Price 75c per
bottle.

Toads.

There is nothing very attractive
looking about toads. If you should
find one of the homely little fellows
hopping about among your flowers and
plants do not allow anyone to disturb
him, as they are invaluable to farm
ers and gardeners. They destroy
many insects and bugs that would 9th
erwise ruin plants.

The First Telephone.

Robert Hooke, in 1867, conveyed
sound to a distance by distended wire;
and between Hooke's time and that of
Elisha Gray considerable progress was
made in the direction of the tele-

real telephone was given to the world
by Alexander Graham Bell, about
1877.

Study Efficiency in Grocery
Store.

How many steps does the clerk in
your corner grocer's store take in fill
ing an order? Could the stock be re-
arranged so that an order could be
filled in less time? Such questions as
these are the sort the students in eff
ficiency engineering in the new School
of Commerce of the University of
Missouri at Columbia are working on
every day. They visit the grocery
store, make chart of the movements
of one clerk during an afternoon, and
then suggest changes that would make
the work of the clerk more efficient.
Advertising, accounting, general
economies, money and banking,
crises and depressions, transporta-
ton, taxation, corporation finance,
contemporary history and govern
ment, business law, social ethics,
and other fundamental studies that
prepare the student for the investiga-
tion and mastery of the practical or
ganization and administration of any
business are included in the curriculum
of this new school.
Although the School of Commerce
is less than one year old, there are
now about seventy five students
either regularly enrolled or taking
the two years of work in the College
of Arts and Science preparatory to
entering the School of Commerce. The
commerce students have several clubs
and organizations for furthering their
interests. The school is equipped
with complete laboratory equipment
for the study of bookkeeping and ac-
counting, and a business library is
rapidly being accumulated.

am not an anti-railrosder and do
not seek any reputation as such. The
roads should have sufficient rates,
under normal business conditions to
insure them fair return. But am
unable to see the wisdom or justice in
granting raise in rates until it shall
be shown that the present rates,
under normal business conditions, will
not yield fair return on an honest
value, and for the services to be
rendered. This part of the press to
which referred conveniently forgets
that it cost the state of Missouri
thousands of dollars and took seven
long years following the enactment of
the two cent passenger rate law in
1907, to compel the railroads to come
to book and obey the law, and that
the opinion rendered by the Supreme
Court OF the United States in these
rate cases, held that the roads had
failed to show that two cent rate
would not yield them fair re-
turn. This same press conceals
the facts, that, although there
are more people living in Mis-
souri, for each mile of railroad there
| in, than there are in any surrounding
state or other state similarly situated,
except Illinois, the roads in Missouri
are now charging Missouri shippers
higher rates on their merchandise,
brick, stone, coal, lumber and other
forest products, live stock, agricultur-
al implements, grain and grain pro-
ducts, than they charge shippers in
these other states: 1t further con-
ceals the fact that the roads in Mis-
souri, are making certain discrimina-
tions against Missourians, compared
to their treatment of citiaens in other
states, for instance, in these other
states the roads have paid back and
are paying back to the people the
excess freight and passenger fares
which were collected during the
pendency of the rate cases. In Mis-
souri, they refuse to pay this money
back although it amounts to severa
million of dollars. These and Other
| like considerations moved me tC
criticise the portion of the press re-
ferred to, and to oppose an increase
in rates without requiring an investiga
tion as to the values of the properties
of the roads.
i Trusting ! have made my position
clear and that you will be kind enough
to give space in your paper for thil
letter beg to remain,
| Yours, very truly,
