The F. w. Dodge company says. -''No one assumes that union scale of wages in the building industryis going down in some years. Nor does anyone expect that building material prices will go down to where they stood be- fore the war Hence, all things considered, many owners will unquestionably decide that it is more advantages to build now than to wait.

Our Book of Doom.

A doomsday book of new sort has been produced by the alien property custodian. It approximates 500 pages and sets out the names of the enemy concerns that have been found in the United States. The custodian thinks his efforts have been without real cost to the country, since he brought to light for the treasury to collect more than S600,000 in income taxes which were being evaded. Besides the GUS todian turned some of the German con- cerns to war work and had them pro- duce $3O,OOO,OO0 worth of supplies.
 The custodian's new book, says Ma tion's Business, contains a deal of comfort for Americans who have claims against Germany and who have been wondering if they will have to wait for payment until Germany makes up her mind about the variety of gov ernment she likes best. The state de- pertinent has hinted that American claimants may get immediate reim- bursement from the funds the custo- dian has collected.

FAR BEYOND ALLOTTED SPAN
instances Of Remarkable Cases of
 Longevity Which Seem to Be Well Authenticated.

The death at Nenagh, County Tipper- ary, Ireland, of Mrs. Bourke, who was reported to have reached the age of 121 years, has led the London Daily Express to make a record of some of the other famous cases of longevity. In 1904 the regimental chaplain of the 18th Bengal infantry was still conduct ing services in Calcutta at the age of 130. In 1908 Andrei Nikolaievitch Schmidt, Russian, produced papers which showed that he was 136 years old, and had enlisted in the Reval battalion in 1796. The same year Hadji Raouf was 133, and was still earning a living as a saddler in Con- stantinople, but he was juvenile com pared with Quo-Ka-Num, an Indian chief who roamed the shores of Puget sound at the age of 160. He was gen. orally conceded by Europeans more likely to be POO, and he claimed to re- member the time when iron was un- known to his tribe. He was 2 feet 5 inches in height and did not weigh 50 pounds. A few years ago a Chinese woman reached Montreal. She had left her native land when 70, and had lived in Demerara for 100 years. In 1912 Europe had 1000 living centenari- ans, of whom 9,SsS were Bulgarians.

sKILLFUL PIECE OF WORK
Novel Feat of Engineering Recently Put to the Credit of American
 Bridge Builders.

Not long ago 1t was discovered that the piers of the combined highway and railroad bridge across the Missouri river at St. Joseph, Mo-, were in bad condition and 1t would be necessary to build new piers. At first it was proposed to build the new piers on the downstream side of the old bridge and shift the bridge laterally to the new position, in this way maintaining traffic over the old bridge while the new construction was going on. But the war department required the in- stallation of larger draw-span in the bridge and so it was decided to build the new piers between the old piers. After they were completed, the fixed spans of the bridge were moved shore ward endwise, so that they rested on the new piers. A temporary span was constructed to fill the gap thus oc- casioned, so that traffic was closed over the bridge for less than ten hours. Then work was begun upon the new swing span, which was built as a canti- lever in open position. To permit of this, a portion of the old swing-span had to be cut away and temporary Lft-span was put in to take care of river traffic. Thus the bridge was re- constructed without changing its alignment.-Seientific American.

New Canadian Coat of Arms.

The Canadian government is con- sidering adopting a new coat of arms for the dominion-one which shall rep resent all the provinces in the confed- eration. The present coat of arms Is representative of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick only, for those were the original provinces ; and since 1t was adopted in 1858 Prince Edward island and British O. lumbia have entered the federation, and finally Saskatchewan and Alberta have been carved out of what were the Northwest territories. When de sign emblematic of these nine prov Inces has been chosen by the cSnmit- tee and approved by the government 1t will be submitted to the royal col lege of heralds in England to be reg istered. A royal warrant declaring 1t the official arms of Canada will then be issued.

Double Bottoms Put to Work.

For many years few steamships from the far east have brought fuel oil back to Britain in the ballast space between their inner and outer hulls. The practice never became general, however, and ''tankers" continued to handle the bulk of the trade. But in June, 1917, increased submarine activ- ity and the expansion of the allied fleets made immediate additions to tank tonnage so imperative that not a few, but hundreds. of British and American double bottoms" were fitted for this auxiliary cargo. Apart from its wartime results this new practice has taught marine engineers many les sons that will guide them in designing the oil-burning ships of tomorrow Popular Mechanics Magazine.

LEARNING TO BE A CIVILIAN
Discharged British Soldier Testifles That He Finds New Feeling
 Out of Uniform.

Is the glamor of uniform wearing off?
 After three years of service clothes have just spent my first days in civilian attire. Surprising to tell, believe have met with more civility out of uniform than In 1t, "R. G." writes in the continental edition of the London Mail.
 Two possible solutions of this re- first is that most officers appear to be rather stern and stand-offish in uni form. The other solution, and per haps an equally probable one, is that the public is getting tired of seeing so many officers going about aimlessly with apparently nothing much to do except to spend money and kill time Naturally, I suppose, when I first went out in "civvies" I had the in grained inclination to salute all su- perior officers I met and to prepare to take Salutes from the ranks. It took me the best part of day to overcome this impulse.
 The "sir' habit was very strong, too.
 
 On my first morning as a civilian had to see a colonel at the war office on business-buSiness in which our standing was at least eQual-and I immediately "sirred" him, of course. Force of habit, pure and simple.
 Again there is the matter of running after an omnibus or across the road in uniform one tries to make a point of not doing these things. Now, how ever, when "example" has not longer to be considered, find 1t practically impossible to chase an omnibus or flee from an oncoming taxicab. The instinct is against doing so. Apparently it Is just as necessary to relearn how to be a civilian as 1t once was to learn how to be a soldier.

Phonoaraph In the Hebrides.

Mrs. Kennedy-Fraser, who has done so much to create interest in Hehri- dean songs, took photograph to the islands, says writer in Daily Chron- fcle. This was in order to secure the absolute accuracy of the weird music which Is traditional in the Hebrides. The people were so excited by the nov city of singing into the photograph that they could hardly wait for the record to be played, and then they were amazed at the fidelity with which 1t rendered the songs and all the trivial sounds of onlookers.

DIDN'T MEAN IT LITERALLY
English Soldiers Expressed Wish That Death Might Come Was Fol-
 lowed by Hasty Revision.

Maj. Gen. John J. O'Ryan, who has brought back a number of humorous stories of the battlefield. Here is one he tells about an English sentinel {: "The Twenty-seventh division was in Flanders, where 1t rains almost con- tinuously," began the general. "There were English troops billeted near by. One night, after a particularly hard rain, this English chap was on duty. When he thought no one was around he began to curse everything in gen. eral, the weather, the Germans and his own luck. oh, I say, this Is blawsted weather, donteha know. I wish l was out of this beastly mud the English sentry muttered. A few minutes later he was cursing the rain which beat in his face. 'Gawd, but I wish I was out of this beastly water he unused again. Just then the Ger mans opened a heavy fire and made things uncomfortable for everyone. Oh, Gawd, but this Is beastly,' said the sentry, raising his voice. oh, 1 do hate those blawsted Germans. wish I were dead Simultaneously with his last words a big Minnie dropped almost at the sentry's feet. When he recovered he was lying in a hole covered with mud but uninjured. The sentry sat up, rubbed the mud from his eyes, and then gazing heav- onward, said, oh, say, Gawd, cawn't you take a blawsted joke T"-New York Sun.

Hubby's BIunder.

He resided in the suburbs, and when he accidentally met an old friend ip the city who persuaded him to remain in town for the evening he went to the telegraph office and wired his wife as follows:
 Missed the 80 train. Don't keep dinner waiting. Shall be home late"
 It was very, very late when he did arrive home, and his wife met him at the door.
 'Did you get my message7" he said, beaming down at her.
 "Yes," she said, very quietly. ''but I would like you to explain why you sent message at 4 :28 telling me you had missed the 5:30 train."-Rehoboth Sunday Herald.

Infections of Cane Sugar.

Doctor Rosenthal reports to the Presse Medlcale (Paris) that he has administered intravenous injections of a strong solution of saccharose in nu- merous cases of tuberculosis. The pro- cedure exerts a manifest tonic action. It raises the blood pressure, augments the body weight, and indirectly pro duces a favorable effect on the tuber cuIous IesIons. These results are ascribed by the author to an enhance ment of the functions of the liver.

Cut this Out and Take It With You

A man often forgets the exact name of the article he wishes to purchase, and as a last resort takes something else instead. That is always disappointing and unsatisfactory. The safe way is to cut this out and take it with you so as to make sure of getting Chamberlain s Tablets. You will find nothing quite so satisfactory for constipation and indigestion.

26TH DIVISION
 DEMOBILIzED
Last 5000 Mustered Out Tn Record Time
 Today.

Aver, Mass, April 20 - The 26th CYankee) Division passed out of ex- istence with the demobilization with the last of it's units at Camp Devens today From now on the command which was the first National Guard division to get into action in France, will be only a memory and represent ed only by it's veteran associations. The 5000 men who remained in camp after the discharge of the various units yesterday, were mustered out in record time today.
 It was expected that by nightfaIl the only members of the division re- maining here would be 200 in the camp hospital; 500 who are to be kept until Saturday for naturaliza- ton and approximately 300 others who have been transferred to the de- pot brigade for an indefinite stay. The latter are men who were absent without leave and failed to get their discharge papers fixed up in time for denobilization with the division.
 Members of the band of the 104th Infantry who were put on the "A. w. o. L." list because of a trip they took away from the camp soon after their return from France left the canton ment today free of all military stigma. One of the last acts of Colonel B. F. Cheatham, commander of the regi- ment, was to restore the rating of all members of the band.

GREAT INTEREST
 IN MEXICO'S CASE
Intimated That Diplomatic Investigations May
 Be Made.

Washin gton. April 29.---Unusua1 in terest was manifested today in off CiaI circles as 10 the identity of the governments which are friendly to Mexico that have required the Mex ican foreign office to express an opin- ion on the recognition of the Monroe Doctrine, as announced in official dis patches from Mexico City. The pub- lication of the .signatories to the League of Nations covenant and the names of the countries invited to join the League caused officials to wonder which countries had made inquiries of the Carranza government ion this matter. It was intimated in official circles that diplomatic investigations might be made.
 Officials pointed out that Argentina. Chile, Salvador, Colombia, Paraguay and Nenezeula with the only Latin American countries that did not break with Germany during the war and it was that the governments friendly to Mexico" mentioned by the Mexican foreign office might be among these.
 It is possible, according to a. high official, that Costa Rica, as yet unrec- ognized by the United States and not invited to join the League of Nations. made the inquiry. The same au- thority stated Salvador, as a close ally of Mexico, would not have made the inquiry because her policy would be largely dependent upon Mexico's. Paraguay was eliminated because of her isolated territory and lack of in terest in the subject. Colombia and Venezuela, have, on g. number of oc- casions approved the application Of the Monroe Doctrine, so it Is consId- cred unlikely they sought the in- formation.
 Thus the conclusion is that, if such an inquiry were actually made, it probably came from Argentina and Chile. Both of the countries have been invited to join the League of Nations and both have officially ex- pressed their approval of the or sanitation. The inclusion of the Monroe Doctrine specifically in the covenant in the league has not brought forth a protest from either country.
