Tina, Word "Hospital."

One of the features of an ancient
Roman home were the ''hQspitalia,"
or apartments set aside for strangers,
or "hospes." Hence, in its original
meaning the word hospital was ap-
piled to places where strangers were
received and kindly entertained. The
commonly restricted use of the term
to designate places where sick strang-
ers were received was an after de-
veiopment.
The word came TO us directly from
the French. who got it from the Ro-
mans. Ii is derived. of course. from
the same root as "hospitable." The
name "Hospitaler" was borne with
pride by several seml-religious and
semi-military orders. like the Knights
of ST. John or the Knights of sIalta.
who made IL business TO relieve the
poor, the strangers and the sick.
Ii is worth noting that the first
Hospital" for diseased men and ami
mails was established by the Buddhists
in Hlndustan.

WORLD PRODUCTION OF GOLD.
Figures Given by the Director OF the
Mint Show Enormous Amount OF
Metal Mined.

Since Columbus landed In America.
according 10 statistics assembled by
the director of tie mint. the world
production of gold through 1910
amounted to more than y billion troy
ounces, The estimated amount is the
equivalent of 2944S92 tons of the
precious metal. occupying 49,1OO.So
cubic feet. and worth more than l7A
billions Of dollars.
This tremendous volume of gold
must be measured by a bigger unit
than the gold dollar If its magnitude
Is to be appreciated. If gold were
cast in gigantic dollars" one foot
thick and having diameter of approx
imately IS feet o inches. each would
weigh 1885 tons and be worth 100
million dollars. The worlds gold pro-
duction since 1892 would make 1T
such dollars" aud leave more than
half enough for another. If stacked.
therefore, these gargantuan coins
would form tower IS feet 8 inches
In diameter, more than III feet high.
Since 1905 the average annual world
production would have added about
four and a half Of these dollars" to
the stack each year. but in 1913 and
1919. the latest two years for which
statistics are complete. the output
would have made less than four of the
100 million-dollar pieces each year.

community farm projects. o. E. Meyer
writes In the Rocky Mountain News.
Mr.. Watson already has acquired a
tract of 800 acres at Carbondale, Colo.
and Is now making arrangements for
starting one of his farm communities
there. However. the Carbonate dis
trict is limited in extent and land 10
higher priced. and lie found 1t mex
pedient to acquire as large e tract
as he wanted. He will settle a family
on each % acres of the Carbonate
tract. and the only condition whica
Mr.. Watson places upon an applicant
for one of his community tracts Is
that the applicant be absolutely with
out money or other property.
The tenant is located on the tract
with all necessary tools, stock and
seed furnished. In addition he Is
furnished with sum of money during
the first year. After that the land Ia
expected to produce enough to mako
a living for the family and provide 4
sinking fund for paying for the land.
In six or eight years the farmer. Il
he Is the right sort, owns his land.

The thought cannot but arise that
II this custom were prevalent In the
United States a vast number of our
citizens would be entertaining their
friends and neighbors in the street,
owing to the number of removals
which have taken place in the last
year or two.
In Ireland on this day there are al
so remnants of the sun-worshipers.
According to Rev. Donald Mcqueen
the Irish have ever been w0rshipers
