USING UP REDWOOD FORESTS
Why It 10 Necessary to Call a Halt
Before the Supply Has En-
tireiy Given Out.

Constantly increasing production of
redwood lumber in Humboldt county
means that in less than a century the
only commercial redwood forest in the
world will be stripped bare. accord
ing to compilations made by George A.
Kellogg. secretary of the Humboldt
chamber Of commerce. In 1895 1t was
estimated that the standing redwood
timber in the country would be suffi-
cient for 200 years. but since that time
the capacity Of the mills has been more
than doubled with the prospects for a
continuous increase in the future.
Out of 53S acres Of redwood timber
standing untouched before numbering
operations were begun in the county,
$4,000 acres have been cut over. This
cut represents some Of the best tim
Der of the country, for the bottom lands
along the rivers where the best timber
stands have been harvested first.
Redwood lumber thus far produced
from the forests Of the country has
represented a value Of $160.317 .237 and
has totaled $500, 1855, 500 board feet.

Why One Foot La Easter.

Almost everyone walks faster with
one foot than with the other, accord
Ing to scientist who has studied the
subject. In majority of cases II is
the right foot that outdoes the left.
but some left-handed persons also
walk bit faster with their left. This,
argues the scientist. Is not due solely
to any failure of the sense OF direc.
ton. but to the fact that one of the
wanderers feet was imperceptibiy
moving faster than the other.
Under ordinary circumstances pc
destrlan turns corners. cuts into a diff
ferent road. or is carried In one gen.
ernl direction by the course OF high.
way or street. And he does not ut
tempt to walk In one exact line, but
moves about more or less freely Thus
the speed of his step is equnlized and
the difference is not apparent.
AS proof that person does not
walk In straight line the scientist
proposes test which he says has
proved almost unfalling. That Is, to
place two sticks about eight feet
apart. then start from n distance of 60
feet away while blindfolded and try
to pass between the sticks. He found
that very few persons could success
fully accomplish II.

DIPLOMAT OF HIGHEST RANK
Why II 10 Advisable That Country
Should Be Represented by Am
bassador.

Ambassador Is the highest diplo-
matte officer. Ambassadors, in addition
to the usual privileges accorded repre-
sentatives Of foreign governments,
have the special one Of personal audi
ence with the head of the state to
which they are accredited.
In the days Immediately preceding
the establishment Of the American re-
public the officers who were sent to
Europe on diplomatic missions were
officially termed commissioners. When
the diplomatic service was permanent
ly organized the title of the highest
representatives was made "envoy ex-
traordinary and minister plenipOten-
tiary," subordinate representatives be-
ing given the titles Of ministers or
ministers resident. In 1893 congress
passed an act providing that whenever
a foreign government elected Its rep
resentative at Washington to the rank
Of ambassador the United States gov
eminent would raise its representative
to that foreign government to the same
rank.

Nothing is more despicable than to

pressiOns that we can never eradicate,
try we ever so hard. In spite of all
the grownups can say the little ones
never feel the same love and respect
for those who have deceived them.
Even careless funmaking may leave

LUKE MeLUkE SAYS

This is selfish old world. The
average man doesn't care what hap.
pens just so it doesn't happen to
him.
Argument may convince man.
But it takes flattery to convince the
average woman.
When a man claims that he is
poor because he is honest, the bet
ting is that he is poor because he
is lazy.
If you want to know how to man
age a wife, don't ask married man,
ask a bachelor. A married man does
not know blame thing about it.
When an old man marries a young
girl the old man gets the sympathy,
but it is the young girl who is en-
titled to the sympathy.
We don't know why. But it affords
the average man heap of satisfac-
ton when an absconding cashier is
pillar in his church or a Sunday
school superintendent
Women know how to get bargains
in other things. But lot Of them
dig up mighty cheesy husbands.
The reason why man has a kit
ten when he has to sit in a barber
chair for 20 minutes while a barber
cuts his hair, is because he wants
to get out so he can stand in front
of bar for three hours.
1t makes q corn-fed girl mad to
have a thin man offer her his seat
in crowded street car. She could
not possibly squeeze into the space
he occupied, and he merely attracts
attention to the thickness of her
beam.
You have often noticed how will
ingly and cheerfully a druggist waits
on you when all you want to pur-
chase is postal card, haven't you?
Neither have We, brother, neither
have we.
The average married man Is so
selfish that he fails to realize that
his burden brings compensations.
A boy can do an errand in ten
minutes If he goes alone. But If he
takes another boy with him it takes
an hour and ten minutes.
