The people of the island straight

Here follow his precise words:
AS l saw that they were very
friendly to us and perceived that they
could be much more easily converted
to our holy faith by gentle means than
by force, presented them with some
red caps and strings of beads to wear
upon the neck and many other trifles
of small value wherewith they were
much delighted and became wonder
fully attached to u.s."
Columbus comments that the people
appeared to him to be very poor be-
cause they went about naked. He
noted that all the natives he saw were
young, none being above thirty years,
and that all Of them had fine physique
and short, straight hair. He believed
they were from the continent and was
of the opinion that they would make
good Christians, as they appeared to
have no religion at all.

Corn cObS-a great waste product in

In addition to adhesive gum, expert

crystallizes well, and it is believed can

Hydraulic CARTRIDGES.

It lis often difficult and sometimes
dangerous to use ordinary explosives
for mining and excavating in confined
spaces, fact that has led to the de-
velopment of the hydraulic mining
cartridge.
The cartridge consists of a steel
cylinder containing numerous small
pistons that move at right angles to
the axis Of the cylinder and expand
when water is injected into them with
a hand pump. After drilling a deep
enough hole the workmen insert the
cylinder and then set to work at the
hand pump.
The tiny pistons expand until their
free extremities bear against the mass
Of rock with constantly increasing
force and the rock is gradually frac-
tured under tremendous pressure. The
operation, it is said, is not only cheap
err than the ordinary blast but disin-
tegrates larger area of rock.

New German DRYING Process.

The so-called Krayseska method, a
new means of drying eggs, fruit juice
and blood, has been demonstrated be-
fore the food authorities in Berlin and
found worth exploiting to large ex-
tent. The drying is done in a large
iron cylinder five meters in diameter,
in which pair Of big metal wings are
quickly rotating, driven by steam
turbine. The fluid is dashed to foam
and dried by the aid of a hot current
of air that is continually passed
through the cylinder. The dried prod
uct is in the form of powder, which
will keep for long time and can be
most economically transported. The
dried products go through no chemical
process and are directly soluble in wa
ter. Drying plants of this type for
treating about 100000 eggs day will
be erected shortly in Berlin and
Bucharest.

with what he with an air of infinite

RrOmfnent rakes Of Flushing
thronged to the premises at. once, a
thriving business soon was built up
and many lip was smacked and many
a genial jest was exchanged over the
s0tcalled cold tea, the consensus of the
best opinion being that our turner Of
an honest penny must have procured
for his patrons the private stock Of
some Old Kentucky cellar. Finally one
day there came along a phlegmatic, un-
imaginative fellow who ordered
beaker of cold tea in the accepted i'm
pOrtant but secretive manner, started
to Muaf and laid down the tipple with
something, we ARE sorry to say, very

American Willingness to Give. Up

STAND WITH THE ALLIES.
7y Reducing Consumption People Of
the United States Ayerted
Famine at Home liz Spite
Of Low Supplies.

The fact that the people Of the
! United States were able to reduce by
more than one-half million tons their
July, August, September ard October
consumption of sugar proves conclu-
sively that their war conscience was
thoroughly awakened and that the
country as a whole stood ready to fol.
low the injunctions of the Government.
Our normal consumption of sugar in
the four-month period beginning with
July has been 100000 tons per month,
a total of 100000 for the quarter
year.
In July, when our sugar stringency
began to reach it's height, consumption
was reduced to 100000 tons. In Au-
gust only $4,000 tons went into dis
tribution and in September only $780,
900 tons. In October the distribution
fell to 100000 tons.
If the general public had failed to
observe the injunctions of the Food
Administration this country would
have been in the throes of sugar
famine before the end Of August. Our
visible supplies were so low as to bring
great anxiety to those familiar with
the sugar situation. They feared that
it would be absolutely impossible to
reduce. consumption to point where
sugar would no longer be q mere lux.
ury in the American diet.
Few accomplishments Of the Food
Administration will stand forth so pre-.
dominantly as this reduced consump.
ton of sugar. BY it we have been able
to bridge over. the period of stringency
until the new beet and Louisiana cane
sugar crops were in sight,
Now the nation is in a position SO
that If we choose we may return to
our normal home use of sugar, and
Europe, with the release of ships to 60
far afeld, can maintain it's recent re-
stricted rations. If, however, those
nations are to increase their use of
sugar very considerably it must be by
our continued sharing with them
through limiting our own consump-
ton.

New French SIanQ,

The language Of the Poilu is as
double Dutch, to the uninitiated Any
one familiar with the slang of the
Quarter Latin would probably feel
more at home than most. But there
are many other ingredients some
patois, some picked up in Morocco, and
some are survivals Of the soldier slang
of the First empire. Such word is
"cleber,' which apparently means to
eat after one has been on the point of
starving. An explanation given of the
origin of the word is that it is a cor
ruption of 'kleba," the Russian for
bread. It is said that the French SOL
diers on the great retreat from Mos.
COW called out Papa, kleba," to Ma
p0leon.

Wars Far-FIunu Ruins,

Russian churches in Alaska have
hard times making both ends meet
since wars turmoil in Russia stopped
the payment of money by the mother
church toward the upl1eep of these far.
away parishes. All the churches in
that section are now being supported
solely by their small congregations
Many of the churches contain valuable
paintings and jeWoled robes.
In order to exc out his salary, one
member of the Russian clergy, Father
A. P. Kashevaroff, arch priest in
charge of the Russian church at
Juneau, took the post of inspector of
customs at Hidden Inlet, near there,
