Big Camp Means Much.

According to the Tacoma News
the American Lake camp is to be
che greatest OF all the governments
sixteen environments. 1t is to have
46,464 men and 1889 animals, to
which has to be added the guns of
she artillery, the great wagon trains,
the howitzers carried by mules, bal
looms. airplanes, hydroplanes. truck
trains and much other interesting
and costly paraphernalia of war.
The camp will be one of the great
sights of the United States and prob
ably will draw tourists from great dis
tances.
1t certainly is an imperial gift to
lay at citys door, and in world
history few cities have ever been the
beneficiaries of opportunities so i'm

brought to market, and the rule of "on-

has never even been heard of. Bar
gaining goes on at endless length, and
the purchase Of a score Of eggs may
take half an hour. Eggs are not sold

All sorts of curious things are for
sale in Galway market, brought from
many miles away In little donkey carts
or carried on foot by sturdy old men
who think nothing of a tramp of doz

are wrapped up in gunny bags with
nothing but the head projecting when
a shipment has to be made. Peat is
for sale by the CARLOAD, fowls and
vegetables. Most curious of all per-
haps is peculiar seaweed, which is
popular as salad dish. TO the visitor
it's taste is rather unpleasant, but, ac-
cOrding to local tradition, it has the

Idaho Has Money to Loan
And Finds Borrowers Scarce

John w. Eagleson, the state treas
urer, calls attention to the fact that
4he state has on hand $723,000 avail
able Tor farm loans, and that this
amount will soon grow to $1,000,000.
He thinks it should be out earning
sfroney for the schools. In discussing
the sfuatien the state treasurer says:
THE state gets but per cent on
daily balances, while if the money
were Invested in farm mortgages 1t
would earn 6 per cent. During the last
few snonths the cash available for
farm aoans has steadily increased each
month, and could the cash on hand
which was available for lending, even
the Lass SIX months, have been lent to

How Houses Explode.

The most remarkable phenomenon
connected with tornadoes is the ex-
plosiOn of houses which literally
burst, scattering their fragments in all
directions. Sometimes substantial
dwellings are carried high into the air
and then explode. 1t is now under
stood that this is due to the fact that
the funnel cloud (revolving at q rate
of at least 500 miles an hour) has a
vacuum inside. Thus it sucks up
everything in its path, even emptying
wells. It sucks all the air from around
a house over which it passes,' and the
house Ga vacuum being thus created
outside of it) promptly explodes, ow-
ing to the pressure of the air, at 30
pounds to the square inch, from with
in. The house, in a word, is trans
formed into bomb.

THIS SEAL HAD CURIOSITY
Mammal Got Into Trouble Through
Nosinp Around Too Promiscuous-
ly Among Strangers.

Seals are very plentiful among thu
when asleep on the skerries. They are
! attracted by musical sounds, and al
one time a considerable number were
said to make their appearance in the
bay Of Hoy when the bell Of the parish
church close by was rung.
Seals are usually much on their
guard against the approach of men,
but when unmolested frequently come
close to boats or people ashore. An
Instance Of this occurred recently of
yawls were at paddock fishing, writer
In the Edinburgh Scotsman says.
A seal made its appearance, and
showed great curiosity as to what was
going on. 1t swan repeatedly between
two boats a short distance apart, and
ultimately devoted its attention to one
of them, diving under the boat and
coming up first on one side and then
on the other. At last it made q spring
at fish which was being hauled out
VI Tic WdtcI Vi lduu liue. IL ldlleu
to get proper hold, but the fish was
thrown back to afford another chance,
which the seal quickly seized. 1t kept
so near that eventually one of the fish
ermen got hold Of its tail, and by the
assistance Of another it was taken into
the boat.
1t was young one, about three feet
In length. 1t did not seem to appreciate
its new quarters, and made strenuous
efforts to escape but was kept pris-
oner until the fishing ceased, and then
taken ashore. Subsequently the seal
was restored to it's native element,
which it seemed to appreciate all the
more after Its detention.

Magnetic Pole Moves pendulumwise

The magnetic pole does not, as has
generally been believed, move in a cir
Gle around the geographic pole, but
oscillates exclusively on the Pacific
ocean side. This has just been proved
by Emile Belot, who has presented to
the French Academic des Sciences a
curve representing the motion of the
magnetic pole since the year 1541.
The motion of the magnetic pole is
almost q spiral, but it's speed varies.
From 1880 to 1855 it averaged u kilo-
meters a year. For the last 100 years
it has averaged only s kilometers a
year. M. Belot likens it to the oscilla-
ton Of pendulum, which slows up
as it approaches the ends of its swing.
The period of It's swing is about 800
years.

Analysing Waters.

Mineral waters are easily analysed
by means of the spectroscOpe, as
shown by M. Jacques Bardet, and this
is likely to prove one of the best meth
DDS for this work. He sends beam

alyzed and thence through the spec
troscope prism, in order to permit Of

germanium and gallium which are
very rarely found in nature.

Love Hides the Scars.

Love covers multitude of sins
When scar cannot be taken away
the next kind office is to hide 1t. Love
is never so blind as when it is to spy
faults; 1t is like the painter. who, In
drawing the picture of friend, hav-
ing blemish ia one eye, would pic
ture only the other side of his face.
1t is noble and great thing to cover
the blemishes and to excuse the fall
ings Of friend; to draw curtain
before his stains, and display his per-
fections; to bury his weaknesses in
silence, but to proclaim his virtues
from the MISUNDERSTANDING.

from direct taxation means much"
Il would send man to every coun-
ty in the state, begin an advertising
campaign and let the people know
that we have money to lend.
There are quite a number of dis
tricts in the state issuing school bonds
and the state has the right to take all
of these issues.
when man applies for a loan on
his farm you have your appraisers go
out and appraise the land, but in
nearly every case the board cuts down
on the amount asked for. That is a
big mistake.
Il have received numerous letters
from landowners who say they have
been compelled to go to private banks
to get money when the land board cut
down the amount they asked for This
works a great hardship upon the farm
er, and compels him to pay s per cent
or 10 per cent to a private institution
he could borrow from the
state for per cent"
