MAN1MOTHS THAT WERE VICTIMS
OF NORTHERN SIBERIA

In the region of the Lena delta, in far
northern Siberia, there is gigantic species
of mole which, burrowing underground,
dies if by chance exposed to light. 1t has
enormous tusks, and half-savage nomads
of the country sometimes use strips of its
thick hide for reindeer harness.
Truth to tell, the "mole" is the long
extinct mammoth, and the last surviving
specimen persisted long before the earliest
dawn of human history, says writer in
Philadelphia Ledger. Indeed, it may very
well be that 100000 years have passed
since the youngest mammoth walked the
earth.
In their day these huge animals roamed
in herds all over northern Siberia, where
the climate was mild and salubrious. But
there came sudden change and Jack
Frost established reign in that part of the
world. The mammoths, huddled in val
leys, were overwhelmed by snowdrifts,
which hardened to solid ice, preserving
their bodies intact even to the present
time.
Now and then the hot sun of the short
arctic summer melts out and reveals to
view one of the great carcasses-the meat
still fresh enough to fed to dogs. The
eyeballs of one specimen found on the Tas
river, between the Obi and the Yenesei,
were as perfect as if the animal had been
killed only day or two earlier.-Ex.

lady who left 33 wine casks in her
cellar. to be divided so that her three
daughters were TO receive the same
number OF casks and the same amount
OF wine. the maths show that there
are several answers to the problem.
LAMAR WATSON YORK arrives at
different answers. in which She di-
vision of casks and wine are equal.
FRED HAFELFINGER works 1t out
on a basis of full. half, and y
empty casks each for two of the
daughters, and 8 full. half. and b
empty casks for the third daughter. ,
LEONARDO JAY has one answer.
w. ID. PAYNE says Mary received 4
full, half full. and 4 empty casks;
Susan, 4, 3 and 4; Jane g. and 3.
ALEXANDER ST. JOHN gives two
answers. No. being Mary ! full. 1

rHERE are many reasons why
business fell of and produc-
ton slackened, but the chief

reason Is simple enough. we got Oh
a financial spree and threw our
money away by the shovelful The
Government wasted more money In
twelve months than our whole Gov
eminent cost us from the year l776
to the year 1917.
The example of the Government
spread to individuals. Everybody
spent money as if dollars were leaves
that grew on trees and could be had
for the picking. So, Of course, we
had our headache.
There is no use of crying over
split milk. Neither is there any use
Of trying to gather it up. The only
thing to do is to get some new milk.
The only way to get new milk is to
milk the COW. The only way to keep
the COW giving milk is to feed it.
Fine-spun theories Of taxation
make fine texts for politicians, but
when you get down to brass tacks
and horse sense the only way to pay
what you owe is to get to work and
earn the money to pay the debt with.
Now nobody can work without the
opportunity to work. Ii we are go
ing to have closed factories and slack
trade, falling off in production OF
raw materials and of foodstuffs apd
Of manufactured stuffs will result In
increased idleness of the workers.
And the more idle workers the ma
ton has the harder it is going to be
to get revenue to pay our debts. SO
the fundamental thing to do is to in
crease the opportunities to work.
1t ought not to take any great
amount of sense to perceive that the
more goods we can sell abroad the
more work there will be to do at
home.
AS things stand at present,
policy which is nothing short OF
idiotic has cut us off from trade
with the one hundred and eighty
millions of people living in Russia
and has practically cut us off from
trade with the eighty million people
living in the German republic and
the Austrian republic.
The people of these three Euro
pean republics would very gladly
buy all our surplus foodstuffs and
manufactures if they were per
mitted to do so, and by sensible as
sistance enabled to do so.
Everybody who thinks at all
knows that the commercial pros
perity of the nation depends upon
the sale of its surplus products. The
great bulk of our own productions
we use ourselves; what we can sell
abroad makes up our national
profit. So the very first thing
which the new Administration, the
new Congress should consider, is
taking down the bars and opening
the lanes of trade between the
United States and Russia, Germany
aud Austria.
Between the United States and the
Russian republic those bars are
simply political bars. Fortunately
these bars can be knocked down
with ease. The Russian republic
has gold and silver and platinum,
and enormous mineral and fuel con-
cessions with which to begin trade
