Wooden stocklno,2

Turning trees into silk stockings
has become an important industry in
the United States in recent years.
During the last fiscal year more than
5000 pairs Of stockings made from
artificial silk, obtained from wood pulp,
were exported, the National City bank
says. The United States has now be.
come one Of the leading world pro.
ducers Of artificial silk.
From being large importer Of this
product. this country has become a
considerable exporter. While the tex
tiles made from the artificial fiber are
not yet fully equal to those produced
from the natural silk, the growing use
OF the artificial silk is illustrated by
the fact that our imports of artificial
silk. chiefly in the form Of yarns or
threads, aggregated about $4,000 900
In the last decade. With the openisg
Of the war the supply from Germany
and Belgium was entirely suspended
and that from Great Britain and
France materially reduced.

Too Much Tor the Skunk,

90 MUCH TOT SOe SKUNK
Mr.. Cackle Berry vouches for the
following story:
A Frenchman, an Engiishman, an
Irishman and a German prisoner were
in an argument as to which was the
bravest.
A Yank overheard the controversy
and decided to settle 1t. Pointing to
a nearby poultry house, he told then,
that there was. skunk inside and
asked the Irishman to step inside and
see how long he could stand it.
Pat did us he was told. In five min
utes he came out. The Englishman fol-
lowed, but he stood it only four min
utes. The Frenchman next tried it,
but five minutes was enough for him.
1t was the Germans turn. He went
in and the others waited. The minutes
passed -one-two-thre e-four-five
-six-seven, but no German. Eight
minutes-ten-the skunk came out.
