the native attaches small cups to

Para rubber tree yields two ounces

WOMEN HAVE NEVER FAILED
All History Shows Their ouIckness
TO Respond When Duty Has
Called Them.


II Great Britain really needs any
form OF military service from her
women, she has but 10 speak the
word and millions OF volunteers will
respond. Lord Kitchener could begin
organizing a corps of amazons tomor-
row II he chose to ask volunteers for
such service. The women OF the Brit.
ish races. in the home isles and on
this continent, have ever been ready
to serve their, country effectively in
time Of war. When Mr.. Lincoln was
unwillingly drafting men INTO the
army, women we're volunteering for
all sorts of service. At times then
and since the number of such volun-
teers for hospital service has been
embarrassingly large. The women Of
the Confederacy made amazing sac
rifices to aid the ragged armies in
the field. Some OF them took their
lives in their hands and acted as
spies. Thousands and hundreds OF
thousands sewed and knitted and
spun, and not a few actually worked
in the cornfields and cottonfelds. The
need for such work was not so grave
in the North, but millions of women
above Mason and Dixon's line were
ready to volunteer for any service
that the government at Washington
might require of them. In all this,
the women on both sides but initiated
fbpir oraat.Uro N n r,ofbaro Of tha Do,ra
luton. No modern war has been
fought without the aid of women, and
such women were always volunteers.
Men sometimes have to be dragooned
to serve their country, but thus far in
human history the simple call 20 duty
has been sufficient for the women OF
any nation.-Vogue.

WONDERS OF GRAND CANYON
No other Spot on Earth Is Believed
to Possess the Same interesting
Formations.

Many people still living can remem-
Der thrill Of wonder and admiration
that ran through the world in reading
of the daring exploit of Major Powell
in 1869 in navigating the rapids of
the Grand Canyon of Arizona in a
small boat. II was his account of his
trip more than anything else up to
that time that called the attention of
the world to the magnificence of that
wonderful gorge and to the brilliancy
of the coloring on its rocks.
The United States has recently pub
lished bulletin, No. $40, report on
the geology of a portion Of the Grand
Canyon by L. F.. Noble. This gorge
offers an opportunity OF studying the
history of the formation of our globe
presented In mo- other spot now
known. On the top are deposits Of
the Carboniferous period. and below
this strata, some of them Of immense
thickness. ranging down to the Cam
brian period at the base. In the Grand
Canyon we come to the basic rocks
of the earth, the granite and gneiss.
This panorama is described as prob
ably the most complete geological rec
ord Of the world revealed to the eyes
OF man.

TO HONOR WIFE or BOONE
Daughters Of American Revolution
VIII Place Tablet at Grave
Of Pioneers Wife.

The state conference OF the Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution Of
Missouri will be held in st. Louis the
last week in October and directly aft
erward, on October 20, the Daughters
will place marker on the site in
Warren county, where Daniel Boone
and his wife, Rebecca, we're buried.
The daughters have been indie
fatigable in their efforts to place
markers at all historic spots in the
state, and will continue the good
work. II is all very well for the men
who blazed the way and the men who
fought for their country's honor and
way. but sometimes 1t seems as IL one
would like to hear of a society, a
vanguard Of peace. as II were, that
would mark the deeds of the real he
roes of the world. those kindly, unpre-
tentious persons in the modern equiv
alent of fustian, who never blazon
forth their heroic efforts in any way.
There are thousands of mothers, de-
priving themselves of all the good
things in life that their children may
have an education. The president of
q college told me once that In far
away New England town his mother
had Just died He could not go to
the funeral, and, while IL possibly was
being held he told me something Of
what his mother had been to him.
"She was left with poor little New
England farm" he said, "and four
sons. She sent each Of US to college,
and don't understand to this day
how she did it,"
Every woman can imagine how she
did 1t. how she worked and shaved
early and late, and saved the money
that was the means of giving each of
her boys what the proud New England
woman considered the greatest thing
she could give them, an education,
and a real one, with a collage degree
as it's goal. There will be no mark
ers on the graves of such women, and
