George Sea Otter, summoned bv

doctor in the Cardigan Redwood Lum-

his wrecked nose reorganized and his

truth. The loss of the logs was trialnp

How Mar Tanks Are Beina Used.

Tanks are being used as snow blows for clearing blocked mountain uasses and as a means of transporting goods to hotels situated in the noun tans on difficult roads. They are also being utilized for agricultural purposes, making excellent tractors wherever the ground is hilly or broken, dem onstrating that war machines are being used on many peaceful tasks in France. Another use to which tanks are being pat is hauling trees. Near the air drome at Villacoublay trees of very respectable size, some of them weigh ing as much as three of four tons, are being felied, and, in the ordinary way, would have to be sectioned in the for est before they could be removed by means of animal traction. But thanks to the great hauling power of tanks, they are being dragged whole up a steep slope of twenty-two degrees.

HOODWINKED THE GREAT ]. P.
How Two Impecunious Reporters &c., cured Neat Sum From the "king
 of Wall Street."

The late J. P. Morgan, with all his financial shrewdness, often was hood wjnked. Art dealers were not the only ores who found him an easy mark. J. P had heart larger than his head. Unlike most flnanciers, he was not al- ways unmoved by tale of woe whether that tale was genuine or bo- gus. I have just received a new Mor- gan anecdote Illustrative of this, and illustrative, also, of the fact that the famous banker could enjoy a joke when he was the victim. Two news. paper reporters desperately hard up tas reporters sometimes have been known to be) made touching plea for a contribution for a new church which worthy group of colored people were pictured as heroically striving to es- tablish. The story was so plausible and so appealing that Mir. Morgan handed them S400 Before the pair were out of sight he saw them divide the money The story goes that for a moment Mir. Morgan didn't know whether to be furious or philosophic, but that he then burst into laughter, cflled in some of his associates and told them the joke.-B. c. Forbes in Forbes Magazine.

HOW
CITY OF CAIRO. ILLINOIS

HOW ====== CITY OF CAIRO, ILLINOIS, GOT ITS EGYPTIAN NAME Why is Illinois most southern city named Cairo, while various other nearby points hark back to the land of the Nile, and why is the whole southern part of the state popularly known as "Egypt?"
 The story of how Cairo, stand ing importantly at the junction of the Mississippi and the Ohio rivers, came to acquire it's name is more than 100 years old. Judge John M Lansden of that city who has written q History Of Cairo" recalled 1t. Al that early date KaSkasl,ia was the capital of the Illinois territory.
 Cairo was planned at Kas- kaskla in 1S17,' said Judge Lansden, "and a charter was granted its promoters or lncor- poratOrs by the territorial leg islature January 9, ISIS, almost a year before the state was ad- mitted into the Union. They re- garded the junction of the riv- CTS here as a grand site for a great city and thought 1t re- sembled the site of Cairo on the Nile, and hence their use of its name for their proposed city.
 "Such was the origin of the name and there followed 1t al distant intervals the towns or villages, all within thirty miles, of the Egyptian names of Alex andria, Thebes, Dongola and karnak. Cairo may be rightly said to have given them their names. Alexandria ceased to exist long years ago.
 "The name Egypt as applied to southern Illinois is tradition al only. It and all the other names followed Cairo in order of time, and it may be Cairo had something to do with ap- plying the name to this part of the state, but the better account is the long-accepted story of go. ing down into Egypt for corn, as did Joseph's brethren many centuries ago"

How Lumber Is Graded.

Grading of lumber is done under a multiplicity of grading rules. H. s. Betts, engineer in forest products, for est service, United States Department of Agriculture, tells how lumber Is graded in a forty-page pamphlet, Bull letin 84, on the subject.
 Woods are graded largely according to rules prepared by lumber associa- tions,' the members of which handle lumber of one or more species that grow in a certain region or are natur- ally grouped together, with the excep- ton of the hardwoods, which are all graded, according to the rules laid down by National Hardwood Lumber association, with headquarters in Chi- cago. Soft woods, on the other hand, are graded according to rules promul- gated by more than sixteen associa- tons.
 The bulletin mentioned gives the basic data for the principal rulings.
