 Canaan evidence is now complete.
 Canaan testimony is confirmed.
 Reports of early relief substantiated. Merit doubly proved by test of time. Let a Canaan woman speak.
 Mrs. Jacob Scamerhorn, W. Main St. Canaan, says: "I had dizzy and nerv. ous spells and my back and head ached. My kidneys were out of order, too. At night was restless and in the morp- ing felt all tired out. Doan's Kidney Pills soon made me feel better and the symptoms all disappeared.

 On September II, 1916, Mrs. Scam- erhorn said: "I still think very we'll of Doan's Kidney Pills and I am glad to confirm my former recommendation. I still use them occasionally and can honestly say they have never failed to bring quick results"

Strange Craft on the Tigris.
Strangest of all the kinds of float
ing equipment Is the kelek, seen on
the Tigris. The kelek is probably one
Of tho earliest forms of water trans
portation used by our ancestors in
Asia. 1t consists Of goatskins inflated
with air, tied beneath framework OF
light poles. Often as many as 800 such
skins are used to give the boat the
desired buoyancy.
The cargo is loaded onto the kelek
just as though it were a tlat-bottomed
barge, after which the craft begins its
journey down the Tigris or the Eu-
pirates propelled or guided by oars.
When it reaches it's journeys end it is
broken up and sold as skins and tim
Der.
The two great rivers OF MesopO-
tamia are very crooked and very irreg-
ular in their depths. The airline dis
lance between Diarbekir and Bagdad
is 400 miles, while the water route via
the Tigris is about 1000 miles. At
many places the river is deep enough
to accommodate boats Of considerable
draft, but at others it Is so shallow
that man has difficulty in swimming.
But even over shadows where a man
cannot go as a swimmer, a well-laden
kelek will float without accident. For
thousands of years this buoyant boat
has helped the people Of Mesopotamia
to move their commerce over the
shoals and shadows of two Of the
earth's modest rivers.

MAN MUST PAY IN THE END
Communities After AIl-Condi-
tions In New York.

It has been estimated by social sci
entists that $S4O year Is the lowest
income on which family Of five can
live in decency in New York. Tho
wages paid by New York city to labor
crs is $3.50 year. This is $3.50 below
the mark. But is 1t $3.50 saved? 1t
is not, declares Detroit Free Press.
There is a law, natural social law.
that when society refuses to pay the
price Of decency and justice, it pays
the price of indecency and injustice
and the latter is the heavier price.
Take the case Of New York. The
worker who earns $3.50 less than liv-
ing wage still lives, but he takes the
difference-and more-out Of the COM
munity. When his children are sick
the public doctor attends them. When
the child is injured, public hospital
cares for it at public expense When
work is not to be had public funds buy
the family it's bread and fuel.
When the moral fruits Of such life
manifest themselves in crime, society
pays the policeman and supports the
penitentiary by which legal expiration
is made And when the wretched
parents die, society pays for the fu-
nerals and supports the orphans. This
is not to mention the moral and physi'
cal menace to the community which
such an uncared-for family may be-
come.
Count these public "charities" and 1T
becomes clear that the $3.50 which New
York saves on each Of the laborers Is
taken out Of New York city's treasury
and orderliness and health-and more,
too.
Laws Of society are like any other
laws Of the material universe; they are
inviolabe Society cannot break them.
but society can bruise itself against
them. And that is what society has
been doing With this consolation,
however, that every bruise society III
nicts upon itself awakens it's intelit-
gence and concern in that particular
direction.

paths to the town of Porlamar to sell,
for a mere song, piece of work that
took the entire family some three
months to complete. Loaded down
with a couple of completed ham
mocks on their heads and with anoth-
er hammock or two carried on the
arm in a native-made basket, these
women present what is indeed an in

steadily talking all the while on sub

Three Towns Of Importance.
There are three towns of impor-
lance on Margarita island-Porlamar,
Pampatar and Asuncion. The entire
island has population of about 49,
600 souls, and Porlamar has about
5000. Porlamar is the busiest and
most thriving of all three towns and
the largest. It is at Porlamar that the
bimonthly steamers of the Venezuela
company call, although it must be
stated that this service is most I'M
certain A biweekly service is main
tanned by sloop with the town of Caru-
PIANO on the mainland, and intending
travellers for Margarita are advised to
make Carupano their objective, and
to there await the departure of some
small sailing craft for Margarita
island. While this method may be
more uncomfortable, it is far prefera-
bic to a long wait on an uncertain
coastal steamer, and one is certain
of having to remain in Carupano for
not over three days at the most.
pampatar is the official port of the
island, and it is here that all vessels
flying foreign flag have to enter. a

vt WAS my good fortune to spend
the first part of the year 1915 upon
the little-known island of Mar
i garita, lying off the north coast
of Venezuela, in the interests of the
Museum of the American Indian OF
New York city, which institution sent
me to this region to make an archeo-
logical survey, writes Theodoor de
BODY in the Bulletin of the Pan-Amer-
lean Union. The various handbooks
ON South America give but scant in
formation about this island, and,
strange to say, one finds a great deal
more mention made of Margarlta
island in the early historians of the
sixteenth century, such as Las Casas,
Herrera, Oviedo ct al. than one does
in modern works. Without going ex-s
tensively into the early history of the
island since it's discovery in 1893,
might mention that pearl fisheries in
the waters surrounding Margarita
and Coche were of prime importance
during the first 80 years after their
existence had been discovered. The

the careless management of the early
Spanish settlers, and Margarita island
became lost to public memory and re-
mains lost to this day.
Margarita was occupied by the
Guaiqueri Indians at the time of its
discovery. This fierce race of people
was not readily subjugated by the
Spanish colonists. Thanks to the war
like qualities of this race, large per-
centage of pure Guaiqueri blood re-
mains on the island today, more espe-
cially on the north coast in the vii
lagos of Juan Griego and Paraguachi.
It is in these villages that the locally
renowned Margarita hammocks are
made from the native cotton, and
these hammocks command a ready
sale on the north coast Of the main
land and are even exported to the
British island of Trinidad. One sees
the Guaiqueri women making the
thread for these hammocks from the
native cotton by the ancient spindle
whorl method, and cannot but admire
the industry of race that will walk
from Is to 20 miles along mountain

LONGEST Beard in History.

The longest beard referred to in
European history is that which
adorned the person of John Mayo
painter to Emperor Charles V. 1t is
said Of hin, ttat though he was very
tall his beard was SO long that he
could cad upon it. Naturally he was
very proud of his possession, and took
such great care Of it that he usually
went about with it carefully gathered
I'D in fcstoons, the points of the hair
being looped up and tied with ribbon
to a buttonhole of his cot. But some
times, by the express desire ci -+ie
emperor, Mayo would unite hiE feard
to its full length, whereupon his maj
esty would command the windows to
be opened so that the beard might
have full play. The emperor" we
are informed, took great sport in
watching the wind blow this eng
beard in the faces Of his courtiers.

Patience and orbearanceNeeded

By ROBERT LANSING. Secretary of State

The great war has caused so many conditions which
entirely and presented many questions which
were before raised thought Of that it has
been easy task to meet and answer them. The rela
tons between neutras and begerens were never more
difficult of adjustment 1t harder to preserve
neutral rights from invasion by the desperate oppo7
nens in the titanic conflict in which the power, if not
the fe of the great empires of the earth is at stake
The peoples and governments at war are blinded
by passion; their opinions unavodably based their
conduct frequently influenced by hysterical impulses
o madness Patience and forbearance essential to
