Profitable psbbIes.

The flint pebble industry gives ,oc-
cupation to many women and children
along the French coast lying between
Havre and Dieppe. The pebbles col
lected in and near Havre are selected
for their spherical shape and are used
exclusively for pulverizing in certain
industries, particularly in the manu-
facture Of cement and in copper mines,
being employed in the interior of large
cylinders. In the cement industry the
slow turning Of the pebbles produces
q powder which becomes an ingredient
Of the cement, while in the copper in
dustry the metal is freed Of all impuri-
ties by the grinding operation. The
same kind Of pebbles is used for crush
ing purposes in the manufacture Of
paint. Another important use of flint
pebbles is in the manufacture of porce-
lain, the pebbles for this purpose be-
ing found between Fecamp and Calais.

A "Friday" shin.

A true story is told Of skepttcal
Massachusetts captain who way back
in the early years Of the republic de-
termined to exhibit the fallacy of the
Friday superstition. He contracted on
a certain Friday for the building Of
a ship, and it was arranged that the
keel Of this vessel was laid on Friday,
that she was launched on a Friday,
named Friday, commenced loading on
Friday and hauled into the stream
on the same day Of the week. To add
to the possibilities Of disaster, q negro
cook named Friday was engaged, and,
thus fully freighted with the sinister
name, the Friday sailed on a Friday,
bound to port In the West Indies.
From that day to this no tidings Of
the Ill fated craft have been received.

Mounting Newspaper Expenses.


Newspapers generally have assumed
that the public was not interested ir
their business arrangements. Such ar
situation has arisen,
however, in connection with the ad-
vance in the cost of print paper-and
for that matter, of practically every
thing that enters into newspaper pro.
duction-that newspapers all over the
country are being compelled to make
readjustment of advertising and sub
scription rates to meet the new con-
6itions.
White paper is the chief item of ex-
pense in newspapers of general circu-
lation, and in the last few months its
price has advanced 20 per cent, SO
per cent, and even in some cases 10C
per cent. For metropolitan newspa-
pers this means an added cost of pro-
duction of several hundred thousand
dollars per year. The advance of Other
materials, while not so great, is very
material, and increases the gravity CT
the problem.
The magazines are feeling the same
pressure. The August issue of the
"Worlds Work." for instance, devotes
space to the paper situa-
ton. while "Life," the "Independent'
and other periodicals have explained
tc their readers the necessity of
changes in their circulation schemes
because of the emergency.
Newspapers and magazines alike
are doing their best to tide over th
situation with no radical changes. IT
il only prudent, however, to recognize
the fact that if the advances of the las
few months continue--as they seen
likely to-the entire periodical busines !
will have to be readjusted.-Kansas
