ROPE SUPERIOR TO LEATHER
Fibrous Material Rapidly suppIanting
Betting in American and Euro
pean Mills and Factories.

For 20 years there has been san in
creasing use in this country of manila
rope for power transmission in mills
and factories in place of leather belt
ing. In English factories ropes SUPER
seeded betting long ago, and their use
is nearly universal In the United
States the change that has taken place
began with the acquisition of the Phil
ippine islands, where, as everybody
knows, the manila hemp fiourishes.
The fiber of this hemp varies in length
from to II feet, and occasionally at
tains a length of Is feet. 1t is said
to possess greater tensile strength
than any other fiber known, exceed
ing $4,000 pounds per square inch.
Rope drives, as transmission ropes are
called, possess the advantage of noise
owing to their fiexibility and
to the existence of an air passage in
the grooves between the rope and the
sheath.

SPECIAL MEDAL FOR THIS DOG
ST. Bernard Forgot Eternal Feud With
Cat Family and Braved Flames
to Save Pussy.

The supply of Carnegie hero medals
would soon give out If all the brave
and thoughtful dogs were remembered.
A st. Bernard in the town of Everett,
Mass, mindful of the traditions Of
snowbound travellers and his Alpine
monastery, has just effected a triple
rescue that entities him to whatever
dogdom can offer in the way of canon
ization. to match the name Of the saint
that his devoted breed already bears.
First he woke up the families In two
apartments by his loud barking when
a fire broke out, and then, having
started the human beings on their hur-
ried exodus to safety, he darted back
through the smoke, got the family cat,
which had been forgotten In the ex-
element, and reappeared with his
tribal enemy In his mouth. Would all
human beings have been so magnani-

things; first of all, that he bowed to
necessity; second, that he would come
again. Astonished, mortified, baffled-
that, most of all baffled-he doubtless
salved his pride with that second
thought: He would come again. The
girl sensed something of what smol-
dered deep In the bold eyes-eyes that
a good woman could hardly meet with
out dishonor. But there were plans
afoot-and she trusted them.
Listen FL 1--WE you time to get
out of sight. If you walk fast. If you
look back, or If you are In sight when
think the time is up. I'll shoot; and
I'll hit what shoot at"
He studied the eyes back of the re-
volver. What he saw whirled him
around, his hands still up. and started
him back down the path. The farther
he went the faster he went. In less
time than she had thought. he had
passed the turn and disappeared.
She closed the door, laid the revolt
verson the table beside the sewing bas-
ket, crossed the room TO the sofa. The
Pearlhunter had come out from behind
the curtains, admiration running riot
In his eyes.

linking some very unconplimentary

The past week has shown continued

producers to meet competition. The
expectation OF some increase In oper-

based on evidence that many consumers
