$12,293.76 at auction.
Mr. Costen, who was Ga years old,

some Big EXPLOSIONS
ONE THAT BLOTTED OUT TOWN
OF SIXTY THOUSAND PEOPLE.
Mans Efforts With High Explosives
Are Nothing Compared to Havoc
Mother Nature Can Cause.

Mans Ef1ortS WIN hIgn EAplosAFeS
Are Nothing Compared to Havoc
Mother Nature Can Cause.
The world is used to explosions in
these days, and has almost ceased to
gasp when told of the craters which
bursting she'll can produce in the
twinkling of an eye. But there are
still explosions, and a real big one is
novelty.
For instance, four or five years ago
200 tons of dynamite and 10000
kegs of gunpowder went bang at
some powder works sixty miles from
Chicago. Many people in that city
were at the theatre when that little
squib went off, and they thought it
was an earthquake and rushed into
the street ere the roof should fall up
on them. The little town of Pleasant
Prairie was only a mile away and it
was blown into unrecOgnizable ruin.
What do you think of an explosion
which scoops mole 30 feet long by
S. broad and 80 deep? That was
what a train lead of blasting gelatine
and so cases of decorators did to a
siding 800 yards away from the city
railway station of Johannesburg
Pieces of the engine were found a
mile away, and beside the so more
or less complete human bodies dis
covered 20 sacks were filled with
human fragments.
A most extraordinary piece of good
fortune attended this terrific explo-
sion. A red-hot missile, hurting
through the air, fell into another dy-
Mantle factory nearer the town. Had
that factory exploded johannesburg
would have been laid in utter ruin.
But it fell into the only pail of water
in the place and instantly quenched
itself
But all this is a mere nothing to
what nature can do 1t is like a
babes pop-gun to the broadside of
overwhelmingly. In modern times
the biggest explosion of this kind was
the one which blew the island of
Krakatoa to smithereens, blotted out
every trace of a town of 60, 900 peo-
pie, and killed 10000 more. 1t was
caused by the floor of the sea crack
ing and letting in the water upon the
interior fires of volcano.
The fine ashes were so thick that
it was necessary to burn lamps all
day in places 500 miles away. These
ashes were proved to have been car
ried completely round the world
three times. It affected the sunsets
of England for three years, giving
them exceptional brilliancv. The
whole northwest coast of Java wss
covered six and seven feet deeD in
ashes. The debris was shot miles
up into the sky. The city of Anger
now lies 100 feet below the sea.

THE GREATEST WAR BUDGET
IN HISTORY OF THE WORLD

creased, will mean only an extra pen
ny per pound burden for the general
public, for the sale of all sugar now
is regulated by the royal commission,
which will reduce the price to ref1n-
ers and dealers.
Tariff Reform.
The present radical occupant of
the chancellorship of the exchequef,
Reginald McKenna, was forced by
circumstances today to revert to some
extent to the principles of Joseph
Chamberlain. He was compelled to
half mast the free trade flag and re-
place it by an embryonic representa-
ton of a tariff reform banner.
Fiscal theories must go by the
board. Mr.. McKenna declared. The
chancellor was actuated by the two
fold principle of raising additional
fund and enforcing economy on all
classes by means of taxation.
Referring to the gigantic total OF
expenditures the chancellor said the
navy was costing 190,000,000 pounds
and the army 715, 100000 pounds.
The country also had to bear external
advances amounting to 423, 200, 600
mounds. The total daily rate OF ex-
penditure would be upwards OF A.
100000 pounds and in the latter part
of the year might rise to 5,OOO,O OO'
Ordinary services, he said, absorb
ed 10000, 900 pounds, excluding the
army and navy but including proVls-
ions for the national debt.
Tax on Incomes.
The super tax is to be increased
on incomes of 5000 pounds and over
from "a pence to 42-pence per pound
1t was proposed to introduce spe-
cial tax on profits which had 1ncreas-
ed during the war. Fifty per cent
of the proceeds above the amount
assessed for the income tax last year
will be subject to the tax.
The chancellor dwelt on the sums
the super tax on incomes Will Drlng
in. The man with an income OF w.
600 pounds, he pointed out, Will pay
& O29 income tax and super tax OF
virtually shillings a pound. Inc
nossessor of an income of l0O,OU0
pounds will have to pay S4'OOO
pounds.
Yield From War Profits.
The chancellor estimated that the
new tax on war profits will yield
10000, 600 pounds in the full year.
Including the income tax the new as
segsment works out at so per cent
of the profits.
1--WE have trebled our debt ana ana
doubled our taxes" he added. II
Arc wor continues these proposals
cannot be our last word. Our great
resource is the continued Willingness
of the people to bear their snare.

the Road to Success.
If the politicians get Joe Sullivan's
goat-or goats-they may sidetrack
him. With the goats he has not beell
sidetracked yet from anything he has
alv.ed at, and he has aimed pretty
high. He has been mayor of his ma
tive town out in Arkansas, and is
mentioned as candidate for secretary
of state for next March's election, and
every time his goats hauled him to
his success.
That's why he can't let 'em get

a paralytic for many years and has
only his right hand to do things
with-his right hand, his head, and
more perseverance and pluck and per-
sistence than most goat teams are
called upon to draw.
Back in 1907 when Joe was about
IS years old he took stock one day.
He found himself with a pretty good
right hand and he couldn't even hob
BILE on his paralyzed legs. He had a
good head however.
Joe looked himself over and de-
cided that if he was going to get any
where his head would have to take
him and that his head couldn't do it
unless it was trained. Ergo, he must
go to school.

IF one were TO ask which was the most
important article of woman's attire,
the gown or the hat, it would be hard
to answer, for the one is so necessary
to the complement of the other-a suit
able hat will SO often enhance the charm
of a dainty costume, and frequently an
otherwise very ordinary costume is made
to look quite smart when the wearer has
chosen something jaunty in the way of
millinery, but the most important con.
sideration to bear in mind when choosing
millinery is the becomingness of form
and color as well as the suitability for the
occasion.
AS have so often pointed out, the best
dressed woman is not always the woman
Of unlimited means, but the woman of
discernment. You will never see WELL
dressed woman dressed for walking in
tailor-made clothes wear a large-brimmed
hoppy hat any more than you viii see her
in touring car with hat trimmed with
outstanding feathers, for reasons which
are very obvious, for it all sits down 10
the practical, even in fashions, which is
a very good thing for us all. rich and
poor alike.
This season the models are more
fascinating than ever, and the large as
sortment of shapes will enable almost
any woman, young or old, attractive or
plain, to go into shop and choose be-
coming model in very short order. There
are small. close-htting jaunty shapes for
the pertfaced little lady; toques trimmed
with wings, ostrich or ghourra for the
older woman; large picture shapes for
the stately young beauty-in short, there
is a shape for every face.
