The Effective Blockade.

Down in the Ozark mountains in
Missouri good old Baptist of the
hardShell type was called to preach at
a church where the young men of the

if the preacher said anything they

the old preacher looked his congrega-
lion over and said:

How's Your Hearth

1t is known that n perfectly sound
heart is not necessary to successful
athletics. A heart that is originally
weak will, when properly trained,
sometimes carry man successfully
through a severe athletic contest. New
crtheless, such heart will not carry
him very far on the Marathon course
against the Grim Reaper.
A careful study made by men who
have been strenuously athletic In early
life shows that the benefits derived
scarcely compensate for the dangers
incurred. 1t appears that athletes are
quite as susceptible to infectious dis
ease ms others, and that they die from
heart disease, tuberculosis, typhoid fe-
yer or pneumonia, just as do their less
strenuous brothers.
Feats of strength and endurance are
particularly harmful to young persons
and should be carefully regulated and
supervised In all schools. II should be
made fixed rule that no boy be al
lowed to compete In contests II his
heart gives the least evidence Of weak
ness.-Exchange.

MANY NEW PAPER PROCESSES
Process Of De-Inking Old Newspapers
So They May Be Used Again Has
Been Evolved.

Two of the more recent develop
ments in the crusade to bring down
the high cost of paper have been the
the tests for making newsprint from
old papers and further considerable
of the subject of producing fbrous
pulp from cotton stalks, the Wall
Street Journal states.
A process of de-inking old newsprint
has been evolved by DIR. Thomas Jes-
person Of Neenah, Wis. Doctor Jes-
person has invented a solution which
successfully removes the ink from old
paper and bleaches it pure white.
The ink used in printing newspapers
Is largely constituted of lamp black
and various oils.
Although it has been generally
known for years that chlorine would
accomplish this de-inking process, no
attempts, prior to Doctor JespersOn's
experiment, are known to have been
made to introduce this system as n
commercial factor. About 5000 tons
of newsprint are consumed daily in
the United States in the printing of
newspapers. The old papers are gen.
orally sold to paper manufacturers
as old stock. Every paper mill has
a number Of girls in its employ who
assort' the old papers received, and
about three tons daily are thrown
aside. This CASTOR material is now
used in the manufacture of cheaper
grades of paper, boxboard, etc.
A mill Mt Neenah has made paper
by reducing such castOff paper to pulp
after it has been bleached. Paper
made by this method, using the de-
linking substance. has been used by
some small newspapers, who report
that it is apparently not different from
the brand-new material. The subject
of manufacturing pulp for paper from
cotton stalks has come up repeatedly
in the past and has been under con-
sideration by chemists in Germany as
well as the United States department
of agriculture.
A meeting was held recently in the
Office of the state commissioner of ag-
riculture to consider the ACCESSIBILITY
of using stalks from Texas cotton
fields for this purpose. Texas annual
ly has about 100000 acres sown to
cotton. and stalks in this area have
an estimated weight Of 15,OO0.OO0 tons,
which would be available for paper
manufacturing.

The Broccoli Plant.

If the man who succeeds in grow
ing two blades of grass where only one
grew before is one of the greatest
benefactors of mankind, what shall be
said of him who is able to produce six
or eight heads of the cabbagelike broc-
coli where only one grew previously,
and what is more, has made the plant
a perennial?
That is what an English horticultur-
list recently achieved. A writer in
Chambers Journal tells of one of these
fifteen heads six or seven inches in
diameter.
The broccoli should be of inestimable
value to the small gardener, especially
If he happens to have an odd corner
where he can let the plants grow undis-
turbed. Once they become established
they assume the proportions of young
all directions. They demand very 1T
tie wedding; and as their roots thrust
themselves deep into the soil, they are
not appreciably affected by dry wealth
er. In the spring, as soon as the shoots
begin to run, the plant needs some
thinning; but there is no waste, for the
shoots when cooked form an appetizing
dish of the flavor of asparagus.
The fact that to cut 81 massive
heads from n dozen plants is no un.
usual achievement gives an idea of the
prolific yield of this novelty among
abbages.-Youth's Companion.

About the Pullman.

After the long night of sleeping and
humping, you get up and hasten to the
washroom for the hurry-up cleanup,
only to find that the man who talks
loud in the smoker has beaten you to
1t. He has evidently talked all night
so as to be back on the job before any
-one else.
He has received a travelling case as
present from an admiring friend or
wife. and he is busily using it. His
bag is deposited on seat, his coat and
vest are on hook. his collar and tie
on another one. His travelling case
takes up the space of one of the birds
tub basins, and with feet outspread, and
much splashing he is worrying the
,brisiles off while the train rounds cor
ners. and the engineer applies brakes
with no apparent reason.
You are lucky if only one man has a
-case-generally there are two-and by
the time the train has reached its desti-
nation and the porter announces that
ehere will be five minutes allowed to
.sclear the coach, you have been able to
worm yourself between the shavers
and their outfits and apply sufficient
water TO relieve the strain until you
are able to get to your own blessed
Sanctum-and can spread out over
things yourself.-Detroit Free Press.

rs THE "NEw YORK" OF EGYPT
4AIexandria's Port Harbor Ships Bear.
ing the Flags Of Every Nation
In the World.

There are few cities that can look
back to past like that of Alexandria,
and fewer still with such a past that
can contrive to keep up with the times
and look forward to the future. The
relics of % dead centuries of Alex
sandrian history have to be looked for
in the guide books. In the city itself
they are covered up by the latest mod
ern improvements. A few erudite AL
exandrians may argue about the real
nationality Of Cleopatra, but most of
them are talking about cotton prices
and the latest project for dredging the
harbor.
Cairo has been called the Washing
ton of Egypt. 1t is the seat of gov
Ternment, the city where diplomacy and
politics abound. If Cairo is Washing
ton, Alexandria Is New York. 1t is
the great port of entry for all Egypt.
Every flag in the world floats ON the
ships behind the breakwater. Every
tongue in the world is heard on the
crowded streets. The past may have
been glorious, but the present is con-
siderably closer and more vital. There
fore, let us see about floating an is
sue of paving bonds and get that string
of street lamps up.
This Is the attitude of the typical
modern Alexandrian. If he belongs
to the educated classes he has an en-
tirely adequate acquaintance with the
history of his city; but neither he nor
his city is interested in history. They
are both primarily commercial. Yet
to the visitor the past must outweigh
the present. Alexandria today is, af-
ter all, no more than weak imita-
,tion of Liverpool or Hamburg. Alex
andria in the past was the heart and
the turning point of events that de-
termined the history of the world.
From the lighthouse on the Pharos
-lineal descendant of the first light
house in the world-up the harbor and
through to the Nile, Alexandria and
the country around about are full of
memories of the conqueror who found
ed the city, Of the Romans who con-
quered 1t, of the Pharaohs who lent
it their patronage, of Cleopatra the
queen, who lost 1t, of the victorious
Mohammedans who swept through it
and destroyed the greatest library the
world has ever seen. Alexandria's
present, with its paving and it's street
lamps, fades into insignificance. 1t is
nothing but commercial sideshow.
