Rcscher and Books.

Somebody happily recalls what Hen " Ward Beecher said about books and believes 1t is well worthy of re- production, more especially because there seems to be a revived liking for books just now. Well, 1t Is worthy of reproduction anyway:
 Books are the windows through which the soul looks out" said the Plymouth pastor. "A house without books Is like a room without windows. No man has a right to bring up hls children without surrounding them with books. if he has the means to buy them. It Is wrong to his family. He cheats them. Children learn to read by being in the presence of books. The love of knowledge comes with reading and grows upon it. And love of knowl- edge in young mind, is almost a war rant against the inferior excitement of passions and vices. A little library growing larger every year, is an hon orable part oe a young mans history. It Is a mans duty to have books. A library is not luxury, but one of the -,,>,--s '~- -S t'Ta" "

SPEED OF BIRDS

Every one surely who has watched the flight of the sw.fter birds has made his own estimate as Co their speed The speeds attained by the carrier pigeon, the duck and the faster oi the sea b.rds have formed the subject oi endless guesswork and Inevitable eN- asgeraton. Birds which are Incapable. even when at full stretch, ot doing more than forty 10 fifty miles "n hour. have been credited with ipO and more
 Now. the fact of the matter Is that nothing is more difficult than Co judge of the speed Of any object through tue alr by mere human observation. Fore shortening due to perspective alone renders It Impossible 10 tell just when a moving object passes above some hxeG point on the ground, and almost invariably rhe estimated speed is far beyond the actual AT the present time the highest well-autheuttcatca speed Is rhut of homing pigeons, some of which have reached a speed of t" miles an hour over comparatively short distances.
 But now comes Colonel Msinerrzha- gen. a noted ornirhoIOEtsr in Great Britain. wIch the statement that dur ing his autl-alrcraft duties in the war, he trained hls men In instrumental work by making them take ohSerya- tlons Of the flight of birds. These he collected and then confirmed their re

Those speeds represent SseaE- flight: but when bird is frightened by am enemy. or when It is uouucfu. upon ifs prey it can ac- r.rrrarr greatly for a limited time.

Answer-We frequently say in these
columns that no investment can be put
away and forgotten entirely, and that
an investor should keep track of all Of
his Investments. The American Arri-
cultural Chemical Company manufac-
lures and sells fertilizer. At present
the fertilizer business is in bad shape
because of the depression in agricul-
ture. The American Agricultural
Chemical Company, however, is a
bonds are secured by mortgage, and
we consider that they are safe. We
are glad that you wrote to us again
about them. We would not advise you
to sell them under present circum-
stances, unless you feel that you will
worry about them. In that case it
would, in our opinion, be better to
shift from those bonds into one of
the foreign governments, which pay
nearly 8 per cent on the money in
vested. We suggest Kingdom of Bel
gium IS. We think this is matter
that lies with yourself. The fertilizer

Chemical Company's bonds might go
lower before it went higher. Notwith-
standing that fact, however, we think
the bonds are good investment.

The clothing and garment trades were

still retarded by the weather, although
the stores report that the normal post
Labor Day increase in the public's in
terest in merchandise is developing
In the dress trade the week was dis
tinguished by the establishment of a
style registration bureau by the SUBJ
manufacturers association to prevent
stealing of models. The same organiza-
ton announced that it hoped to formu-
late program that would end unfair
methods of competition which have been
fostered by unfavorable business condi-
tions. The rumblings Of coming labor
difficulties continued to be heard in the
cloak and suit industry. A conference
between the union and representatives
of the ub-manufacturers' association,
to consider points of friction, was with
out fruit, and the larger manufacturers
continued to complain Of insufficient
productivity by their workers.

have some money In the savings bank,
not great amount but still 1 would like
very much to increase my interest rates
II I can do so with moderate safety.
Please do not suggest Liberty bonds. az
I have some already. and tho rate of
interest is SO small 1t hardly seems worth
while. Could you also give mo your ad-
vice concerning gold s per cont debentures
OF New Brunswick, Canada, selling about
1888 and to yield $50 per cent? / am
more interested in the General Motors 7
per cent debenture, however, as OF course
I can get more for my money.-MISS +. r.
Answer General Motors debenture
stock is too speculative for your saw
ings, in our opinion. Your reasoning
about the matter of safety is inside
out. The risk to be taken varies in
versely with the capital possessed, not
the other way round. The New Bruns-
wick bond would be good investment
for you, in our opinion.
