Getting Around a Difficulty.

Automobile manufacturers of the
United States do not purpose allowing
serious matter, such as railway traf-
nc congestion, to interfere with their
business, if they can help 1t. When
the big freight tie-up first began to
look formidable, automobile makers
faced prospective loss running into
many millions of dollars, because, ap-
parently, they could not secure deliv-
eries. Not until then did it occur to
them that, If an automobile was worth
anything at all, 1t should be able to de-
liver itself. And now what is known to
the trade as the "drive-away" has been
inaugurated. The cars leave the fac
tory and arrive at their destination
under their own power. A drove of
g. cars was recently sent from Cleve-
land to Chicago in this way. 1t Is ex-
peeted that the "drive-away" will be-
come a fashionable thing during the
coming summer. = Christian Science

Paintings and Tapestries.

The relative value of paintings and
.apestries at the very time that tapes
tries were being produced in large
numbers-the fifteenth century, when
weavers of Arras, Lille, Journal, Brus-
sells, Bruges and Paris, to say nothing
Of those of Italy and Spain, were turn"
ing them out in prOfusion-may sur
prise some unacquainted with the his
tory of weaving. Pope Leo X paid to
Raphael the equivalent Of $1,000 for
the ten panels Of the Apostles. and
Peter Van Aelst, the Brussels weaver
who converted the design into cloth,
received $4,000. This suite, as now
preserved in the Vatican, is valued at
a million and a half, although much or
its color has faded. But while Raphael
probably executed his paintings in six
months, it took Van Aelst and his as
sistants four years to finish them on
the looms, while, of course, the intrin-
sic value Of the gold thread and other
loom materials was considerable.

Restoration OF Palestine.

Palestine is essentially an agricul.
tural country. as it has absolutely no
other resources, and in yast times sup
ported a large population. But II
should be understood that to restore il
to its former prosperity would require
considerable capital and a radical re
form of government. Though the
Israelites came out of the very produc'
tive land OF Egypt, their destination
was described as a land flowing with
milk and honey. This statement Is
most interesting in the light OF facts
concerning the production Of honey
here. 1t is we'll known to botanists
that Palestine is the meeting place OF
fora of three different continents. and
this circumstance combined with the
varied attitudes produces a condition
most favorable to bee culture.-Scien
