the conclusion Of the war than they
were before its outbreak, said George
Z. Roberts, former director of the
United States mint, in an address at

Roberts, who is an Iowan, sounded a
note of warning against the concen-
uation OF gold in this country. saying
mat a surplus of the yellow metal
would tend to isolate the nation from
the rest Of the world.

Sreat Britain and Germany are prac-

workers. will undoubtedly impair the

tries; but on the other hand there
are reasons for believing that the

1T is hard to make the average
man believe that a country can have
too much gold. And yet gold or
capital is only one factor in industry
You cannot use gold without labor
and we are not getting more labor
The only way you can put more gold

Kind words will be spoken by the
fraternity men as they quietly go
about on their errands of good cheer,
bestowing garments upon those who
sadly need them, inquiring into their
necessities and providing for them.
That was the occasion for the big
hurrah last night when the walls of
the Elks' home were almost pushed
out by the throng within. 1t cost

JAPAN POTASH SUPPLY
ABSORBED AT HOME

Chlorate of potash is reported to
have been advanced to rs cents for
January February delivery by agents
for the manufacturers. The rise is
attributed to the steadily advancing
prices for muriate of potash. as high
as $475 per ton being now a current
demanded quotation. Chlorate of pot
ash on spot is firmer, with the ma
jority OF sellers asking 81 to 67@
cents per pound. While Japan had
been regarded as a factor in the
market on chlorate OF potash, it is
now pointed out that her own need
are quite extensive and these are
absorbing large share of the output

OF thrift and saving by soliciting and
selling life insurance protection, but
am extra and permanent effort might
profitably be made to check the
extraordinary wastefulness of our
people individually and collectively.
THE prosperity of our patrons
necessarily interests US. for with ex-
travagance comes poverty and in
creases in policy borrowings and cash
surrenders and the loss of insurance
protection to numberless families
Extravaganza not infrequently leads
to excesses that result in i'll health,
which contributes to the physical de

the Ceneland room, where barkers
with foghorn voices beckoned and

The gambling spirit, which exists
in every well regulated citizen, was
amply gratified by the wheels OF
fortune. where ladies won cigars,
dyspeptics secured boxes of candy
and old maids became possessed OF
French dolls. There were chances on
such commodities as a ton of coal,
manicure and toilet sets, silver serv.
ices and whatnots.
Meanwhile the orchestra played on
and on and on, the floor being always
filled with dancers. Something else
was also full, and that was the jail

rulings of Judge Grier, for he had
the habit of doubling up the penalty
on anyone who wasn't satisfied with
his particular brand of justice.
Altogether. 1t was one grand, glori

How Much Iron Can We Make7

Iron furnaces of this country. in,
Guiding all in blast or idle, could, &c,
cording to the Iron Age. apparently
produce about 100000 tons If they
remained in blast year" This would
be 100000 tons above the maximum
calendar year output. The Iron Age
doubts, however. if all the furnaces
could stay in blast a full year, and
suggests trifle over 3S,00O.O00 tons as
maximum capacity.

Since Australia is at the antipOdes

best from May to November, contrary
to the habit of hens here. 1t is now sug-

laying period In the southern hemi-
sphere were rushed across the equator
to the United States she might lay dur
ing the rest of the year at the same
rate and thus establish new record
for years production. Still. it looks

Animal Etiquette.

No one who is at all Observant OF
the ways Of animals can have failed
to notice how gentle large dogs, like
the st. Bernard and the Great Dane,
are to their smaller canine fellows. 1t
Is rare that a big dog turns upon one
Of the little fellows, no matter how
aggravating and snappy the latter may
be- Instead, he invariably treats the
small dogs antics with unruffled and
dignifed tolerance. For there is a
recognized code OF etiquette among
animals, If you please, quite as much
as there is among human beings In
truth, there are not few respects in
which the animals can give points on
politeness and good behavior to man
himself.
