north. Florida is shipping to the north about oC.ooo,Ooo crates of fruit and vege- tables.
 If within few years southern Florida should rival Louisiana as a sugar cane producing section of the country, then one of the forecasts which was made by Henry M. Flagler when he began the construction of the Florida railroad sys- tenn will be justified by the event. MT. Flagler received reports from experts that told of the semi-tropical conditions that prevail in southern Florida and among them a statement that the su- gar cane could be cultivated with great profit in the vicinity of Lake Okeecho- bee, especially if the swamp lands of the Everglades were drained and made ready for agriculture.
 When MT. F'lagler said to some of his intimate friends shortly after his re- tiroment from active connection with the Standard oil company that he contem- plated developing the east coast of Flor ida and constructing a railroad which would encircle the southern point of the peninsula and have a terminal at Key West, many of these friends wondered whether MT. Nlaglers' judgment had not become impaired by his excessive devo- ton to the interests of the Standard Oil company. There was not one of them

Rev Alexander Robertson, in the Chris tian Herald.
 When Italy declared war on Austria in May, 1915, the famous horses of St. Mark were taken down from the ter race above the main portal of St. Mark $ church, and stabbed under an arch on the ground floor of the Ducal palace But now, this would not obviate their
 being carried off to Vienna or Berlin. should the Huns reach Venice, just as Napoleon carried them off to Paris in 1791. Accordingly, they were removed from the Doges palace. put on board a warship and taken to Ancona. There they were unshipped, conveyed to the railway station, and sent off to Rome, where they arrived = few days ago. In
 Rome they have found a quiet and se- euro resting place in the old Castle of St Angelo, ecross the Fiber, where 1t
 is to be hoped they will remain until victory crowns the efforts of the allies
 and peace returns to the world, when
 they will make return journey to Venice.
 Perhaps I may here be allowed to rectify a very prevalent error in regard to 'St Marks Horses" They are gen. orally spoken of as made of bronze. and if so. they must have been cast. But
 there is no bronze about them and they
 were not cast. They are made Of the

Kaneko, was then in charge of the business as he is now, and enjoyed the greatest freedom of action in the world-a freedom in handling the funds which would be utterly inconceivable to American business minds. Kaneko spec ulated and lost the net loss amounted to good many thousand yen more than the entire fortune which his late master had left to his widow and children. Kaneko actually had his foot on a cross bar of bridge railing over the Yodo river in Osaka ready to jump into the cold beyond, as the only fit apology for his terrific ,blunder 1T can die," said he to himself solemnly enough. and that is easy enough. But my dying now would not help the widow and her chill dren.''
 He went to the widow, told her of the loss and asked her to go hack to her ma ternal home while he tried to do what he could to straighten matters out

In 1909, in order to straighten out it's indebtedness, the great and his toric Higashi Honganji, one of the great est Buddhist temples In the empire, sold off It's precious treasures. It was the greatest sensation in the sale of art works since the treasures of the Shogu- nate were taken over by the Dutch mer- chant. literally for a song-for a couple of stanzas of it, I mean--in the closing days of the Tokugawa Shogunate.

Should the experiment which is now about to be made prove satisfactory the probabilities are that the | large area in southern Florida will, within few years be devoted to the sugar industry. Heretofore these lands have been exclusively utilized for the production of grapefruit and some or anges and also for garden truck.
 They must this year be yielding in abundance. for it is reported that the railroad traffic from southern Florida northerly is very heavy, many cars being
 loaded to their capacity with garden truck which finds ready market in the
