Do Away With MiddIemen.

The English Cooperative Whole
sale society is one of the largest man
ufacturing enterprises in the world,
has factories scattered all over Eng
land, in which almost every variety of
useful article is made, and owns its
own farms, diaries and creameries.
Most of the other wholesale societies
carry on more or less manufacturing.
The English societies have $50,00O,-
600 invested in homes built for their
members. The two great wholesale
societies of England and Scotland,
created by consumers societies, be-
gan manufacturing and now produce
$5C0,O00000 worth of commodities
yearly. The largest tea warehouse in
the United Kingdom is that of the CO.
operatives, where 25,000,O00 pounds of
tea are yearly distributed from their
own tea lands in Ceylon.-London

HEAVY COINAGE DURING YEAR
MINIS and Assay Offices Have Been
Busy Dealing With the Amount OF
Gold Acquired.

The value of gold acquired by the
government at the minis and assay
offices during the fiscal year 1915
amounted to S5CS, CS3, 262.92, according
to officials of the treasury department.
This was a large increase over the
preceding year. and was due, 1t Is
said, principally to the heavy impor-
tations of foreign bullion and coin.
Gold deposited by the Cuban gov
eminent to be made into Cuban coin
was valued at $1,323, 291.9S; United
States gold coin received for recoin-
age was valued at S1,959695.71.
Silver purchased during the fiscal
year 1916 totaled 6,545, 1916 fine
ounces, costing $3,34S,642.49, at an av-
erage price of 81 cents per fine ounce.
According to the statistics, the
United States coinage for the same
period amounted to $37, 20S, 062S2, Of
which S31 OF 400 was gold; $685.
$3.50 was silver; $1,790, 46S.15 was
nickel, and S1,O12, 303.17 was bronze.
The estimated stock of domestic coin
in this country at the end of the fiscal
year was S2,4O3, 21O,O53, of which ST.
64G,O50150 was gold; S56S, 270,515 was
silver dollars, and $1SS, $3.50, S9O,2SS was
subsidiary silver coin.

STERN CALL ON ENGINEERS
Italian Army Had to Fight Nature as
Well as the Forces to Which 1t
Was Opposed.

A recent message from the field
Headquarters of the Italian army says
that the transportation romance of this
450-mile mountain front, set down in
cold, hard figures, reads thus: 2,44S
miles of railroad rebuilt or repaired;
800 miles of new railroad built; 80
miles of airline cables stretched for
the teleferica system; 10000 miles of
telephone wire put up; 10000 new
troop, hospital and freight buildings
erected; 200 miles of narrow gauge
railroad laid In or behind the trenches ;
10 new bridges thrown across rivers
and precipices to accommodate 2,O4O
miles of operating road.
The work is credited to 40 civil en-
gineers of the government department
of public works, aided by army en-
gineers proper; likewise by 100000
workmen and 100000 army mules,
hitched to $4,000 wagons.
The foregoing is the first official rec
ord of the exact extent of the con-
struction work On this front, carried
on steadily for 10 months, despite enc
my artillery, avalanches, snowfalls,
rains, floods, frost, lack of material
and all of the other ills by which en-
gineers are beset.

One Thing Not Gone Up.

It was in the market place of
northern town in England. The itin-
Grant auctiOneer was turning his at

blouses which his assistant placed in

said, tive come to blouses; but before
ask you to bid for one, let me re-
mind you that blouses have gone up.
Indeed, / would ask what has not gone
up? If any lady can tell me anything
that has not gone up, she shall have
one of these beautiful garments as a
free gift" There was a moments
pause, and then came voice from the
back of the crowd. "What about divi a

May Recover Priceless Books.

When the Turks seized Constantine
pie they put an end in that section to
western learning. Their theory was
that anything not taught In the Koran
was false and if it was taught in the
Koran other books were unnecessary.
Many precious books were destroyed,
but 1t is believed that immense stores
of manuscripts remain buried deep in
the vaults Of Saint Sophia and else
where. Some modern scholars have
made Investigations and doubt that
such treasures really exist, but recent
reports give some hope of recovering
books which would be priceless.-Phila-
delphia Inquirer.
