NEW COLD SNAP PREVENTS FLOOD
 CARRYING COAL

Pittsburgh, Jan. S0-A sudden cold snap in the mountains of West Vir- ginia checked the flood in the head waters of the Monongahela river early today and ice gorges at Brownsville, Pa, and Morgantown. W. Va. in- stead of moving out as the local weather bureau expected. held fast, with the result that mills in the Pittsburgh district were still short of coal.
 Water, the weather bureau expect ed, would seep through the piled up ice, but not in sufficient quantity to force the masses out. Towboats were sent into the third pool to try to force a way through the ice to the coal mines, but early reports were that little headway was made The fourth pool was said to be frozen over solid, while gorges and piled up ice along the banks made the fifth and sixth pools impossible. Until these pools are freed of ice, or a chan nel wide enough to permit of the passage of tugs can be broken, there is little hope of getting. coal to the Pittsburgh mills.

What ISCOncrete?

Concrete-a manufac- tured stone-is made by mixing together Port land Cement, sand and stone Cor gravel.) Var ious proportions of each are used, depending upon the use to which the con- crete is put. About half an hour after mixing these materials together, the mass begin to stiffen, until, in from half a-day to a day, it becomes so hard that you cannot dent it with the hand. By a month the mass is hard like stone-indeed, hard CT than most stones.
 We have many book lets relating to concrete and cement work which we would be pleased to send you.

Of all the great guilds of the City of London, or so-called Livery Com panies, one of the most important is the Society of Apothecaries, which has just celebrated the tercentary of its foundation The Apothecaries origin ally formed part of the Guild of Gro cers; 300 years ago King James I. transformed them into a separate guild of their own at the instance of his physicians, Sir Theodore de Ma herne and Dr. Henry Atkins, in order that ''the ignorance and rashness o1 presumptuCus empirics and ignorant and uneXpert men may be restrained, whence many Accommodates, incon- veniences and perils do daily arise to the rude and credulous people," The apothecaries previous to that time, and while forming part of the Grocers Guild, had virtually controlled, as they do today, the dispensation of drugs and medicines, and had also been au- thorized to engage in medical prac- tice. Indeed, the household records Of Henry VIII. show that he appoint ed "an apothecary'' of the Grocers Guild to hls daughter, Princ1%s (after- ward Queen) Mary, who was "deli- cate, and in bad %ealth," at salary lNof forty marys a year, "pro neliore cura ct considerations sanitatis suae."
 Even to this day apothecaries are allowed to practice medicine, br;t only after passing qualifying examination in medicine, surgery and midwifery. Otherwise they are barred from prac- tice. They do, however, retain by royal charter and act of Parliament tke monopoly of granting licenses to men engaged in the business of the sale of drugs, medicines and poisons, and no one in Great Britain can en- gage in this business without being duly registered and licensed by the So- ciety of Apothecaries.
 The Apothecaries' Society is govern ed by a master, two wardens and a directorate of twenty-two assistants The members are olvided into the Freemen, the Liverymen, and the Court Women are not admitted to the society. Its hall is situated in Wa ter lane, London, and covers an area of about an acre. The original build ing, erected in 1883, was destroyed by the great fire of London, and rebuilt immediately afterward. It is there that the meetings of the society take place to this day.-N. Y. Sun.

BRITISH LOOK FOR SOME MILITARY GENIUS SOON
 TO RISE FROM RANKS

humblest walks of life. It is the same in France, where Dukes with ances- tries going back to the Crusaders have been doing duty as troopers under lfeutenants, and even captains, who had been peasants on their estates, From a social point of view the caste distinctions in the army have been entirely obliterated to 8 degree that would have appeared absolutely in credible before the war.
 The only thing that remains is the professional military caste, and while Lord Northcliffe's campaign, in the face of all that has taken place, is justified, there is good deal of ex- cuse and right to indulgence for the military caste in question against which he is directing his criticisms. For naturally men who have spent their entire existence from boyhood in the study of the art of war and of military science imagine that they know more about their profession than an officer drawn from civilian life and whose military experience dates only from the beginning of the present war.

defraud the Government, says she

LINE DIRECT.
ORS REJECT new PLAN

Judge W. W. Bolts, Secretary of the
Mexico & Santa Fe Traction Co, is
sued a written statement Monday con-
corning the directors of the line re-
fusing to accept a proposition made
them for the continuance of traffic
on the road for the purpose of keep
ing fit from being junked. Judge
Bolts drew attention to an article in
the Literary Digest of January 10.
which tells of 1900 miles of privately
owned railroads being junked and
which referred to a list of "A lines
which had been abandoned as refcrr
ed to in the Railway Age. The fol-
lowing is the statement issued by
Judge Bolts:
Statement
At a meeting Of the board Of direc-
tors for the Mexico & Santa Fe rail-
road, Saturday, January 26th, . pro-
position for reorganization Of the
company was made, in substance AS
follows:
Unnamed parties would undertake
to raise 100000 in cash and take
stock in the company to that amount.
All the present board Of directors and
officers to resign and a new board n
directors, containing at least = of the
present directors, to be elected. The
new organization then to make 4 new
trial at the operation of the road.
This proposition was rejected BY
the company, BECAUSE
LIST - 1t takes care of only abon
one-third of the debts now due to out
side parties, payment of which is be
ing urgently demanded.
End - 1t makes no provision for tn
thirty thousand dollars advanced b.
the stockholders for building the eS
tension from Moline to Santa Fc,
Bird = 1t is unreasonable that tn
owners of an eighty thousand dolla
Investment should be called oa to su'
render control to unnamed parties VII
, propose to furnis'' only five thouI

1t was decided at the meeting an
placed on record that in case the raj

sold that all cash donated for the e'
tension of the line from Moline

AUDRAIN TEACHERS
MEET IN MCMILLAN
HIGH ON SATURDAY

Teachers from different county
in Audrain county met at the
High School building Sat-
urday and discussed the Club Work
for the country students. K. H. En-
berson, who is at the head OF the or
ganization of the Clubs in Missouri;
G. H. Reavis and Mr.. Keller, who are
connected with the extension work
of the College of Agriculture, met
with them and showed how they
should work with the clubs in their
schools.
The teachers seemed greatly inter-
ested and a good many more clubs will
probably be organized in the country
schools in the near future. The clubs
most discussed were the corn, poul-
try and gardening.
The war makes these clubs all the
more imperative as they can be of
great value in helping to win.
