ABOUT SHARK SKINS.

Shark skins are tough and durable,
and some Of them show a beautiful
surface pattern which persists In the
the skins of the larger sharks has
considerable body and such sharks
will be in greatest demand If the ex-
periments of the bureau of fisheries
prove as successful as anticipated, al
though the skins of minor sharks and
the grayfish are also being handled.
Arrangements have been made for pro-
curing from Florida fishermen a sup
ply of large shark skins, and further
specimens are expected from other
sources, especially from a number of
lightships off the south Atlantic and
gulf coasts The bureau of lighthouses
is cooperating in this matter and win
authorize the men on southern light
ships TO catch sharks and preserve
their skins The bureau of fisheries Is
supplying fishing tackle. The skins
will be sent to tanners for treatment
in various ways. and it is hoped that
such ray material will prove so useful
that fishermen on all parts of our
coast may hereafter find a market for
the skins OF all kinds of sharks now
incidentally caught in line and net
fishing. The bureau of fisheries So
lcits correspondence with tanners,
leather dealers and manufacturers
who may desire to cooperate with 1t
in exploiting this waste product.

carry them out to the garage. She
had the babies, she testified, and part
of the time was without help, but it
appeared to make no difference to her
husband.
SCARED HER AS A JOKE.
On their return to New York in 1912,
she testified, her husband further en-
barrassed and annoyed her because Of
his foolish, boisterous ways. When
automobiling, testified Mrs. Stevenson,
her husband would often inform her he
intended to turn into certain gate
while driving fast and would then
suddenly swerve and scare her and
think it was a good Joke. She testi-
fled that while visiting at the home of
her brother-in- law, a Mr.. Little, Stew
enson used the home as his own,
drank freely of the imported wines.
used her brother in laws cigarettes at
Will, was noisy and fooling embar-
RAISING and annoying her greatly.
After nearly day on the stand, Mrs.
Stevenson completed her story OF her
unhappy welded life
Karl Paine. attorney for Mr.. Steven
son. asked the plaintiff if she thought
the custody of the children and $3.50
q month for their support was not too
much TO ask when the father resided in
New York and she intended to reside
in Idaho She replied her father
would give her money to go home each
year and Mr.. Stevenson could see the
children for several weeks at time.
She stated she did not feel that she
was asking too much.
HAD NEVER QUARRELED.
Again Mr.. Paine asked her if she
blamed her husband. because he had
not grown old when she experienced a
change of heart and matured after the
children We're born. Her answer was
that she did not blame him, but that
she felt he should realize the RESPONSE
bility of fatherhood and sober into
manhood She admitted to Mr.. Paine
that they had never quarreled in the
sense that either got angry. With
few more questions concerning house
keeping, the plaintiff was excused.
Miss Carol Kobbe, sister of the de-
PENDANT, who accompanied her to
Boise, testified to noticing the change
in her sister after her return from
California. She stated she could plain
ly see the suffering and humiliation
Mrs. Stevenson suffered because of her
husbands actions. She seemed to think
Mr.. Stevenson was uneoncerned about
everything but haVin Il good time. was
always embarrassing his siste" and an
moving her by his actions. Mrs. Stew
enson. she testified, made no complaint
but she could see her struggle and suf-
ferlng. On one occasion, she testified,
the baby was i'll at the home of Mrs.
Stevenson's parents, and that he seem
ed unconcerned about it.
WITNESSES FROM NEW YORK.
The case will likely occupy another
day in court. Both the plaintiff and
the defendant each have brought two
witnesses with them from New York
and evidently propose to fight the case
to the end Exceptions to certain rul-
ings are being taken by the plaintiff,
which indicates that If favorable de-
cision is not rendered, the case will be
appealed to the supreme court, The
! PENDANT does not seem to take partic-
ular interest in the case, but sits be-
side his attorney during the trial writ
| ing leisurely.

ional cooperative canteens, the French
army has solved the problem of the
high cost of living in such a manner
that a soldier or officer at the French
front can have a better meal and at a
cheaper price than in any European
capital at the present time, yes, or In
New York. either.
COOPERATIVE cANTEENs.
In the French army's divisional CO.
operative canteens, as they have now
been perfected. supporters Of the Co
operative" theory would find power
full argument of support Every divis-
ion OF the French army, consisting
usually of four regiments. now has
one of these divisional cooperative
canteens established in such a manner
ass to constitute n veritable surprise
for any visitor to the French front.
AS rule the canteens consist of
two departments, usually in two sep
arate barracks or buildings. The first
department consists of all the staple
articles necessary for soldiers bod
lily comfort at the front, and includes
everything from Cologne water to ar
ticles of clothing. pipes. writing mater
ial. hardware, and razors, both safety
and otherwise. The second depart
ment consists entirely of food stuffs
mostly fresh.
PROFIT OF FIVE PER CENT.
Everything in the canteen is sold at
q profit of per cent over the actual
cost This per cent margin Is used
principally for two purposes, First of
all. a reserve fund Is created out Of it
to insure against war accidents AS
the canteens are usually all within
mile or two from the first line trenches
there Is always the possibility that Il
well directed shell will completely
wipe them out of existence. In this
event the reserve fund created would
permit of the rebuilding and restock-
ing Of the canteen without further as
sessing the regiment. The profits from
the per cent margin also permit Of
! the selling of butter, fruits, eggs, vege-
tables and meats at fixed price en-
tirely regardless of market fluctua-
tons. Finally the remaining profit
| that results from this margin is turned
over to the general commanding the
division, who disburses It as a benefit
| fund for the regiments comprising the
division.
| The cooperative canteen where |
| enjoyed the above meal, does an aver
age daily business of over $1,000. while
some days it's sales amount to over
! $780, 1t sells on an average 500
pounds of butter a day. and 1000
cheeses. 1t has already laid aside :.
reserve fund sufficient to re-establish
itself should a shell wipe it out Of ex-
istence and turns over every few days
several thousand francs for the benefit
Of its soldier patrons.
