BUSINESS N RELIGION.

The religion OF 0 people is of such a pecu.
liar shade that it will not do very well to mix it
with their business interests. In every church
throughout our state we find men and women
whose professions are not carrying weight be-
cause everybody knows that they would give up
a seat in Heaven for the chance of making dol
lars while on earth.
The pursuit of pleasure and the mad race after
money is going to cause a lot of disappointment
when the family circles are being made up under
the beneficent eye of the Great Jehovah. There
will be families with more than one vacant chair.
and the sadness about the absence will be it's
everlastingness. The remorse which will then
rend their hearts will more than pay for what
ever illegal enjoyment they get out of this world
through wrongful acts and conducts.

THE SUB WAR GAINS RESULTS.

Lord Robert Cecil, minister of war trade in
Great Britain, admits that the present rate of de-
s%truction, without considering the possibility of
a resumption of unrestricted submarine warfare,
means a serious loss to the worlds tonnage.
While the minister makes this statement as an
excuse for his country to tighten its grip around
the neck of the blacklisted firms, it seems to be
borne out by the facts in the case.
It is estimated that between June / and Sep

running fight.
The number of drowned sailors in the engage
ment is estimated at 2,432 men and the British
prize court has just awarded to the officers and
sailors OF the British squadron a bounty of $50 a
head for each drowned German. The attorney
for the officers and the men explained that only
"a small number of prisoners were taken" and
whether this was due IN any part to the bounty

'Possum Hunting.-The time of
year has come when you want to go
possum hunting. The sight of the
sllVery Autumn moon makes you want
to trail behind the dogs and hear
them bark freed. The sound of a dis
tant horn makes you forget that you
are walking pavement and you imag-
inc yourself treading the forest lanes.
'Fossum hunting is a wonderful
thing. You can undergo hardships
upon a 'possum hunt that you would
not undergo if you were being paid
for it. No amount Of money could in
duce you to work all night in the rain
and wet, in a dark swamp-why, you
would have your death Of cold before
two hours ~passed-but you can spend
two-thirds of the night in the rain
and wet without once a thought of a
cold when you are 'possum hunting.
The race is run, the 'possum freed
in either tree Or sink hole. After
much hard work he is captured and
his tail slipped through a split stick
and the trip home begun. O'possum
is put in a box to fatten and you cast
about for some big juicy yam Eaters
to bake with him. The next thing is
to find some old niger nanny to do
the baking, and it must be done upon
the embers, too.
Such a feast! Postum and ia.

SHIPPERS SHOULD AID RAILROADS.

Dir. J. F.. Porterfield, General Superintendent
Transportation of the Illinois Central and Yazot
& Mississippi Valley Railroads, is making a tril
over the fines explaining to the shipping public
the Importance of assisting the railrods in reliev
ing the existing car shortage by loading and un.
loading cars on the day received, also by loading
cars to their full carrying capacity. He states
For some time these companies have been
delivering cars to their connections, principally
the Eastern roads, at rate of some 4,500 more
cars per month than have been returned, approx
imately 1900 of which were their own cars. There
is no doubt but the Eastern cotton movement
will increase the loss, further reducing the car
supply.
'These companies. own 66,601 freight cars,
which is considerably more per mile of road, than
owned by similarly situated roads, but on ac-
count OF the large amount of business which they
originate, taking the cars off the line, at the
present time they have, including foreign cars,
only some $1,000 revenue cars on their lines,
which is $4,000 less than the number owned.
within the last two or three years, by the ex-
p%enditure of large sums of money for additional
locomotives, yard facilities, main tracks, etc.,
these companies have increased the average daily
per car about IL miles per day, which
With the equipment owned is equal to placing
1926 additional cars per day at the disposal of
patrons, which indicates that these compa-
are doing their share toward conserving the
of freight cars.
"The shipping public can relieve the car short
2ge by loading and unloading cars on the day
laced, or the first free day, which would enable
.nese companies to place 1000 additional cars at
d~isposal-this is borne out by the fact
in California where the demurrage rate is
800 per day, with no average agreements or al
owances for weather conditions, only 1.74 per
ent. of the cars are held beyond the free time.
The loading of cars to their full carrying capacity
'ill correspondingly increase the car supply.
These companies have made every effort
ossible to force their connections to return their
ars without success. The Eastern railroads
lain that the demurrage rate is too low to force
ne prompt release of cars during the present
times.
These companies are now appealing to the
ubllc to assist them, and at the same time them
elves, by exercising more rigid economy in the
of their cars"
