Anolo-lrish Tunnel.

Not only is it thought that the long talked-of tunnel between England and France will be constructed at no re- mote date. but there is also talk of a tunnel between England and Ireland. This would restore to a slight extent the geographical union that existed be- tween the two countries in one geologi- cal age thousands and thousands of years ago. Great Britain and Ireland were then separated only by great valley.
 It Is proposed to carry the tunnel from some point on the coast of Lan- cashire to the nearest point in Antrim or down on the Irish coast, a subma- rine length of 24 miles. One of the great benefits of the tunnel would be that 1t would shorten the transatlantic Journey by at least 4S hours. It would also help the Irish cattle trade and the shipping of perishable goods, especial. ly fish, to English markets. Estimated of the cost of the proposed tunnel vary from $s5,00O,OOO to $sO,OO0,OO0.

MONKEY CHAIN CALLED MYTH
Recent Travellers in (south America Explain Probable Origin of Story
 Once Implicitly Believed.

An interesting article by Prof. E. w. Gudger, in recent issue of Natural History, deals with the time-honOred story on which most of us were brought up that South American mon keys are in the habit of crossing alliga- tor-infested streams by linking their tails and legs to form living bridge. Pictures of this feat once figured ex- tensively 'in the school geographies, and Professor Gudger reproduced such a picture from a Fourth reader pub Vshed as late as 1897. The story was first told, so far as known, by the Jes- uit priest Padre Jose Acosta in work published in 1889. Several later writers have repeated the tale. The first person to dispute its veracity was Baron Humboldt. Recently explor.- CTS of South America. when they men tion the story at all, express skepti- cism. Finally, Messrs. Leo B. Miller and George K. Cherrie of the Ameri- can Museum of Natural History, who have done so much travelling and col lecting in South America, have sug- gested to Professor Gudger plausi- ble origin for such tales. They think that the story of the monkey bridge" has come about through observation of a procession of monkeys crossing ravine or stream on pendent liana. -Scientific American.

THE VICTORY DANCE IN PARIS
(London Mail)

One of the great features of the Bastile Day festivities in Paris was the open air ball. All over the city the improvised bandstands that had been put up were filled with music ians, chiefly poilus. Tangoes, polkas, valses and twosteps succeeded each other during the festal night. And there under the soft light of Chinese lanterns, on asphalt or cobble stones, on the roadway or the. footpaths till the break of day.
 Such couples and such dancing are only to be seen on these joyous holi- days of France. The apache lunches his shoulders as he turns with a min inette. The intellectual gracefully two-steps with the Montmartre ar tist's model. The file de brasserie boisterously clasps her girl friend in a wild career of collisions. And ev- anywhere there are poilus, the wives and sweethearts in the simple step o1 the French polka.
 So the night passed away, and with the morning the cafes were filled with people, tired of head, but happy o1 heart, taking their petit dejeuner o1 coffee and croissant before vending their ways happily to bed.

CLAIMS HONOR FOR GEORGIAN
savannah Newspaper Asserts That Elias Howe Was Not Inventor
 of the Sewing Machine.

The centenary of the birth of Elias Howe, the modest Yankee who invent ed the sewing machine, took place on June 9. There was no extended of- servance of the day, observes Hart ford Courant. yet it was Howe who took a good deal of the drudgery out of the lives of millions of American women. He also increased the power of his fellow men to produce garments and other material that formerly needed the patient handwork Of indi- viduals.
 But it is interesting to observe, In connection with the anniversary, that the Savannah News undertakes the rather hopeless task of trying to con- vince its readers that 1t was not Howe, but Georgian, Francis R. Goulding, who constructed and operated the first sewing machine. This paper says that this man, a Presbyterian preach CT living in Liberty county, married Savannah girl and then began work on a sewing machine in order that he might save his fair wife much hard work. Alleging this was long before Howe patented his machine, and also that Goulding never patented his, they try to show his motives were purely altruistic and not commercial.
 It all sounds good, but it will take considerable "space" in the Georgia newspapers to convince the world that Goulding takes the prize.

FRENCH GOVERNMENT
 TO CONTROL PETROL
lL0ndon Telegraph)


 A big innovation will become a law ir France. Tobacco has been a state monopoly since the days of Napoleon I. Now, for the first time, petrol and mineral spirits will fall under gov ernment control. M. Klotz, finance minister, has submitted to the min isterial council, held at the Elysee Pal ace, the bill for the state monopoly of petrol. The minister in no way laid down any principle of doctrine in this important question, which might be quite as much an economic factor as a fiscal measure, but based his ar puments on the experience gained dur ing the war. The importing dealers entered into an engagement with the government to supply to the army in the field and to the civil population the quantity of petroleum and mineral spirit absolutely required, but in order to fulfill their contract these mer- chant importers were forced to appeal to the state for assistance. The gen. eral petroleum committee at once took the necessary measures in order to as- sure the supply of France in these products which were of so much fm- portance for the military operations. Civilians were in consequence almost deprived for some time of petroleum for private use. Hence, in consequent ce of the measures taken in various ways, the French importation trust of petrol and mineral spirits was founded in the beginning of last year.
 The bill is therefore to empower the state to continue to interfere by creat- ing special office, in touch with the finance ministry, to import into France all refined petrol, oil and min eral spirits.
 This importation maintained as a monopoly would return about mil lion dollars a year. The monopoly would, however, leave free the process 1 of refining the petroleum and the wholesale trade, but M. Klotz is exam. ming at present steps to enable the state to share in the profits resulting from these operations. It may be said, in order to underline the impor tance of this reform, that the com acknowledgement for petrol, has real ized savings for the state in less thar year amounting to 9 million dol lars.

He Had One Better.

One of our honest old farmers came home and found sewing-machine man in the house demonstrating to the women what fine work 1t would do. The agent asked the farmer to bring in shingle, and said: q will show you that the Wonder Worker machine will do heavy work for I will stitch right across the tip of the shingle where 1t is at least one-sixteenth of an inch thick"
 Mot interested" said the farmer. sOver 'crost here bout three miles northeast young man built house last summer, and I'll be durned if his wife didn't take her Mechanical Mar vel sewin' machine and stitch on ev'ry blame course of clapboards, from gable to caves, clean down to the sills."
 As the agent slammed his machine into his light truck and chugged away the farmer turned to his wife and said: "Well, Rita, sewed that agent up all right, didn't I? Now let's have supper."-Bangor News.

Why Americans Lost Contract.

"Speaking of Chinese railroads re- minds me of the failure of an Amer ican manufacturer to obtain a con- tract for locomotives because his Eu- ropean competitors made more care full study of Chinese peculiarities," writes Lynn W. Meekins in the Scien- tific American. "One locomotive was ordered from each of the competing companies. In every respect save one the American product was unmistak- ably superior. However, it had been painted black before shipment from the works, and on the way across the Pacific it became more or less rusted.
 "Its appearance, therefore, was far less attractive than that of the Euro pean locomotives. which were painted in accordance with Chinese preference, and had been touched up by the manu- lecturers agents after arriving in China. Don't get your colors mixed if you want to sell goods to the Chi nese."

OIL CUSTER IN LAKE
((Detroit News)

For hundreds of years Mexican In dians had horror of what they called the pest spot of Lake Chapala, near the shore at Tizapan. They would not bathe in it or sail around it, declar- ing that the water was oily. Then, after time, they cautiously began to paint their wooden boats with this oil, which proved so effective in keeping out the water that it became the gen eral custom to use it. They did not know that this was petroleum gushing up through the water-a magnificent flow, about two miles out in the lake, which to this day gushes apparently without varying. When the water is low petroleum floats in solid masses, each large globule weighing about twenty-five pounds.

URGES PRECAUTION
 AGAINST BLACKLEG

An appeal to cattlemen all over Arizona to take steps to prevent their cattle from contracting blackleg, has been issued by Edward Stephens, sec retary of the state livestock board.
 MT. Stephens said the present ex- cellent condition of the ranges doubt less would cause cattle to fatten rap idly, which would increase likelihood of their contracting the disease. He urged that catlemen abandon the us ual practice of vaccinating their herds only after blackleg had appeared and vaccinate all stock now.

CAN'T CANCEL THEIR
 CONTRACT WITH STATE

Due to a rush of business, shortage of labor and general industrial condi- tions, the Fl Paso Sash and Door company asked the board of directors of state institutions to cancel its or der for woodwork in the new wing of the state house.
 Secretary Baumert of the board stated that the order was placed with the Fl Paso company last April and that it was impossible at the present time to replace it and have the wood work here in time. For that reason he refused to cancel the order and in sisted that it be filled. The com. pany was unable to place an exact date of delivery.

Tobacco Crop

When the tobacco has thoroughly
cured and is ready for stripping, the
first damp spell it can be handled
without SCATTERING it should be taken
off the stalk and bulked down, but
Judgment should be exercised in thai
it should never be bulked down when
in too soft order, or it may heat OF

Small crops can be graded in four
or five grades to advantage, but crops
of 1000 to 5000 pounds should b.
graded in at least six grades.
