A few years ago when pelasic seal

vorite trick OF miIady to develop a
hollow cough which left her better or
worse half the alternative of send
ing her 10 Florida for the winter or
purchasing a sealskin coat. Seals
then became scarce through the un-
ceasing demand, ana the government
stepped In and halted the killing.

telligencer. brought relief to father,
and he, since 1910, when the govern

bureau of fisheries, with the depress-

Russian Enterprise.

The enterprise of the Russian peas
ants is continually giving evidence Of
the nations readiness for progress.
The phenomenal success of the con-
sumers' leagues has enabled the es-
tablishment of numerous factories
and distributing centers on capital
owned by the peasants themselves.
The mistaken impression of the mujik
as a moneyless dweller on the soil is
brought into sharp contrast by the
realization that the Russian peasant
is now thriftily investing his savings
in industrial enterprises. Thus, the
credit society Of, Sapojok, government
of Riazan, has just bought a factory
for the purpose OF manufacturing
agricultural machinery for 23,OOO
rubles. Members of the society alone
Will be employed in making the win
