public was a young state, reared on
the ground OF the former Russian
empire after the decaying edifice OF

very rich and also possessed ele-

The negotiations were not quite

territorial demands which were

Dear Mrs. Thompson: First l will
say l am small, weigh hundred
pounds, have brown hair and blue
eyes. l am twenty-five years old,
but like to look younger.
(1) What shape and color hats
win be worn most this winter? What
shape should wear?
(2) What color of shoes will be
worn most?
(3) What is best for a person Of
medium complexion to use, flesh or
brunette powder? GRACE.
(1) The hats are two extremes
this year-sman turbans and tams
and large picture hats. Since you
are small you could wear a small hat
better than a large one, because in a
large hat you would look lost.
Black hats trimmed in vivid colors
will be worn great deal, also brown,
purple and navy blue hats.
(2) Black and tan shoes are very
good this winter. There are also
black shoes with light tops.
(3) Flesh is better than brunette
powder for medium complexion.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: / received
letter the other day from man
who is in camp. l saw by the paper
sometime ago that he was married,
but he never mentioned it to me in
his letters. / have known this fell
low for several years and have heard
from him frequently.
In his letter to me he asked me to
write him and tell him the news. Is
it proper for me to write him now
that he is married?
THANK YOU.
It will be all right to write to him
once. Tell him that you have heard
he is married and wish him happi-
ness. Also say that you hope you
will have an opportunity to meet his
wife some time in the future. Say
nothing that you would not want
his wife to read. IF he writes again
do not answer him, unless he is able
to prove that the report of his mar
riage was a mistake.

WOOD FOR sPooLs

Small things are not to be over
looked in considering the problems of
the future timber supply. says The
Dixie Wood Worker" The match
maker has as much trouble in getting
the grade of wood necessary for his
business as the dealer in telegraph
poles. The writer goes on to say:
One OF the industries which deals
with small things, yet which is one of
the utmost importance in the coun-
try's commerce, is the manufacture
and export OF spool wood. This busi-
ness is peculiar to the New England
States, and is centered in Maine.
Spool factories Of this State are now
turning out S00,000,000 spools an
nuaiiy, with market value of nearly
$l,000,O00.
THE best quality of timber is used
for the manufacture of spools. White
birch which is used almost exclusive
ly for this industry reaches the fac
tory in the form of bars from IL to
29l6 inches square, and from 2 IA
to 4 feet long. These bars must be

the winter and sawed in small porta-,
BILE mills, which operate near some
railroad line, about 1-3 cords being
required for 1000 feet of bars, After
saving, the bars are piled criss'cross.
in order to facilitate seasoning, and
protected from the weather, are al
lowed to season until June. The spool
bar mills in Maine turn out about 15.-
000.000 feet of bars during the year.
and approximately the same amount
OF material is manufactured into
spOols In the State.
"The machines for making spools
are complicated and require skilled
men for their operation. The spools
drop from the lathe at the rate OF one
per second. and must be perfectly
unifo.iL and true. The finished spools
are ;larketed in this country largely
in Rhode Island. Connecticut, New
York, and New Jersey. while the
spooi-bars are largely exported to
Greenoc.r and Glasgow. Scotland. and
to Hull and Fleetwood. England.
Shipments to these points are made
mostly from Bangor, as much 'as s.
oo0,0od feet having been sent from
