United States in I9ie-an average year
would make a single band two inches
Wide and 26o. .825. 900 feet long. enough
to 20 twice around the world. with
enough left over to make nice bow
somewhere along the equator. The
Scientific American is responsible for
these figures and for the statement
that In this tape there would be A.
o0o. 900 square feet Of leather; that the
trimmings Of the hides used in these
hltbands amount to at least 100000
square feet more. This leather would
make the tops for 20.OO0.000 shoes.
No wonder leather substitutes are now

Pain, the Sentinel.

Ninety per cent Of all of our dis
leases are ushered in with pain, and In
most Instances the pain is either In the
head or is very quickly reflected there.
In this connection, DR.. W. Fl. Vail
writes in the Christian Herald. 1t is
Interesting to remember that the brain
rarely suffers pain. In fact. this is
the truth with most deep seated Or
gans. Surgeons assure US that in op-
eratIons. cutting through the brain
substance causes little or no pain, and
we know that hemorrhages In the
brain interfere with the functions Of
that organ, yet cause no pain. Para
dOxical as It may SEEM in one sense.
1t is sign of certain degree Of
health to be able to experience a head
ache. for 1t Indicates that the brain
has not lost Its power to warn its own
er Of impending danger.

Beautiful Volcanic Mountain.

No one can write much about Japan
without making enthusiastic mention
Of Fujiyama. the most beautiful OF the
volcanic mountains OF the world, says
a correspondent. While "yama" means
mountain" the author found 1t diff
cult to ascertain the precise significa-
ton Of Full" but his students finally
agreed that It meant ''rich samurni :"
samurai being the military retainers Of
the princes who enjoyed the privilege
Of wearing two swords before the abo-
iition Of the feudal system in Japan.
rujiyama. then. would be 'the noun
tain of the rich samurai." The slope
Of a mountain is almost always exag-
gerated by artists, the mountain being
represented In the picture as much
sleeper than It actually is. This is
the case with most pictures Of Full
yama.

Philosophy.

Men are put into the world to live
together. Most OF the time living
amounts to making the best of bad
business. They have to compromise
at every turn. But let them compro-
mise gracefully. 1t is worth while
having a philosophy that one can use
as one uses comfortable everyday
coat Some peoples philosophy Is
like a fne coat. only to be put on for
dress occasions: but a man can be
himself only when clad In the clothes
that are his everyday wear. Good hu-
NOR is a comfortable. everyday coat;
we feel Instantly AT home with the
man who wears it.-Exchange.

Good for Fair Sex.

The Saturday half holiday and the
observance of Sunday as day of open
air recreation, writer states, are
working powerfully and benefcially
toward health and longevity. Girls and
women stand peculiarly in need Of
exercise. and activities which give
them an entirely new set Of mental
and physical impulses. Gardening and
botanizing. motoring parties. eIcur-

that amuse and interest, including all

these can be practiced in the open air.
