Use for Old Pianos.

A Labrador tribe. 1t is said, made
the barrels stolen from a wrecked
whaler serve as chimney tops; the
West Indians utilized Timothy Dex-
ter's warming pans for sugar ladies',
and the Shans find no worse use for
English beer bottles than to stick them
up us household gods to keep away
evil spirits. But the drollest instance
Of converted usage occurred when that
adventurous Frenchman, De Tonnant,
while in Patagonia. gave an old chief u
worn-out plano which he had bought
for so francs. A few days after max
ing this generous present, De Tonnant
went one morning to pay IN early
visit to the Patagonlan. Hc found him
sleeping peacefully with his wife In.
side the piano. from which he had
carefully removed sounding board,
strings, etc, and which, thus trans.
formed, constituted a not uncomfort-
able bedstead.

Safety In Moderation.

A leading physician. famous for his
scientific attainments, has PUBLISHED n
statistical work on apoplexy. He says
It is the lazy, thlck-set. short-ncckcd
individual who eats and drinks more
than he should, who most frequently
falls victim to this disease, and he
draws the conclusion that the majority
Of seizures occur on Sunday and Mon
day, owing probably to the greater in
diligence in the joys Of the table on
the day of rest and the excitement con-
sequent on the return to business. Big
eaters and cocoa drinkers. otherwise
abstemlous are just rs liable to 1t as
heavy drinkers, and lie adds that "al-
cohol IS frequently made the scape-
goat for attacks Of this character when
really excessive eating is to blame"
His report concludes with the snge i'd
vice that the only cure which Is really
a preventive, lies In moderation.

FARMERS: RAISE LIVE STOCK!

I LIVESTOCK will be king on the American farm
l. Of the future! Europe at peace will be raising
grain and eating meat; and American farmers
Nncluding South American) must furnish the
worlds beef and pork. Grains, abroad. will be
drug on the market; but the demand for meat
will exceed any the world has known.
Such is the belief of Hugh G. Hughes "a north
western agricultural editor who writes on the sub
Ject for the Review of Reviews
impoverished farmers of the warning nations will
need quick money, when peace comes, and SO will
turn to grain raising, which will give them more
immediate profits than horses or cattle. Awakened
Russia will produce wheat as she never did before;
the fertile fields Of Hungary and Rumania will be
cultivated more intensivcly.
And at the same time the returning soldiers, used
to war diet in the trenches diet largely of meat
will demand more meat than he ate before at
war. The cattle stock in Europe has been heavily
reduced by the war; the European farmer will be
raising the quick-money crops, all of which means
that there will be huge calls on America and other
peace countries for export meat.
There seems to be no flaws in the argument
We expect the canny American farmer will pay
more attention to livestock raising in the next few
years-particularly in those lands of the west that
have been devoted mostly to wheat and corn.

Beacon Fires.

In these days. when 1t is possible to
chat over the telephone with n person
hundreds Of miles away, We have no
use for beacon fires, but in the old
days they served a very useful pur-
pose. When the Spanish Armada was
sighted they carried the tidings in n
succession Of flares from Cornwall TO
the Cheviots, and thence to London.
In the early part of the nineteenth
century they were scattered all over
the British Isles as a precaution
against the threatened French In
vaslon. The last occasions on which
bacon fires were lighted were the Dia-
mond jubilee Of Queen Victoria and
the coronation Of Edward VII. On
many Of these medieval castles the
fre-baskets In which the fires were
lighted may still be seen.-London Tit.

Once more at the conclusion of q

much energy and money.

stage-coach days when communication
was slow and difficult. Under exist

for making nominations before Sep

involve more than useless expense and

THE DEFEAT OF SUFFRAGE.

THE sulfragsts are making plans to renew their
fight for the ballot. Their attitude shows that
they have one important characteristic of sue
cess in practical potics-the ability to take defeat
with cheerful countenance. Moreover the returns
indicate that there is need of long and thorough
going campaign of education directed right at the
men who do the voting
Many men well versed in the peculiarities of
West Virginia politics were deceived into believing
that suffrage would either win or run very close to
success because of the lack of organized opposition
to it. The vote shows that there was not at any
stage of the campaign the slightest chance for suf-
frage, because the West Virginia electorate is so
indifferent about it that it has taken the trou-
BILE to find out what it involves The chances are
that whatever there was of organized opposition
actually helped the suffrage cause by helping to
remove the apathy.
Apathy seems to be the real explanation for the
failure Of the suffrage to progress in the east

THE OLD A. P.

IN times when the world is jogging along at an
even pace the Associated Press report gets about
as much affectionate attention in newspaper
office as the press or Of the units in the linotype
battery. It is just part of the office machinery
70 be sworn at when it does not function true to
form the livelong day, day in and day out, and
treated with indifference when briliancy char
scterizes its routine work.
But in time of STRESS like the past two days, not
emily the members of the great association but the
general public lean heavily upon the old A. P.
What does the Associated Press say about it? was
an inquiry that came into The West Virginian Of
Ice with increasing frequency yesterday as the stu
s4cn became more tense. The public wanted facts
that 1t could depend upon and it has learned that
~ the reports of this great news gathering associa
ton it can find them.
Another thing that impressed itself upon all who
were in position to learn what the public was think
Ing and saying during the most critical hours of the
nation wide count was the amount of reliance that
% placed in the good faith and enterprise of those
two great New York newspapers, The World and
The Herald.
"A good name" says the Good Book, 'is better
than precious ointment" And it is the cornerstone
Of journalism. Happy indeed is the condition of
the news association or the newspaper the career
Of which has been of such character that the great
American people turn to it with complete conf
dence in an hour Of doubt.
