Queer Boats.

By far the most interesting craft on the upper TigTis are the ''qufa" and the "kelak," this tlater coming from up-river and decending to Bagdad. The 'qufa." as seen in Bagdad today. is a circular tub made of interwoven osiers, covered outside with pitch. The large ones are as much as six feet across and four or five feet deep. They are propelled by two men. who stand close together and leaning over the edge dip their paddles deep into the water and sweep them away from each other.
 In summer these coracles coms floating down to the city, spinning slowly round and round. piled high with fat, juicy melons, their gunwales almost awash. But they are steady enough boats. not easily capsized. The 'kelak," on the other hand, is really raft made up of large numbers of inflated pigskins lashed together and decked over with timber and brush- wood. These float down stream with the current, often carrying fiuswood, cut in the mountains at the sourc of the Tigris, to Bagdad.-Columbus Dis- patch.

Vigor of Youth in
 a New Discovery
Science Produces a vitaIiZer Superior to Famous Gland Treament-Magic
 Power of a Bark from Africa

Have you lost your youth, vigor and pep? Does life seem dull and work a grind? Don't worry. Science has dicov- cred a new vitalizer superior even to the much discussed goat gland" and mon key gland treatment.
 The principal ingredient is an extract from the bark of an African tree. It IS said to be the most amazing invigorator ever discovered. Combined with it are other tonic and vitalizing elments of proved merit. In most cases, the con- pound produces marked improvement in a day or two, and in a short time the vitality is. raised. the circulation improved and the glow of health is felt in every part.
 The new vitalizer contains expensive chemicals, but manufacturing in enorm- ous quantities has brought the cost within the reach of all. Furthermore, the lab- oratories producing this new vitalizer, which is called Re-Nu-Tabs, are so con- fident of it's power that they offer it on the basis of mo results, no pay"
 Any reader of this paper may test the news discovery without risk. Send no money. but just your name and address, to the Re-Nu Laboratories, 299-D Gateway Station. Kansas City, Mo-. and a full treatment of Re-Nu-TabS will be mailed. Deposit g and postage with the postman on delivery. If not delighted hy the results at the end of a week notify the laboratories and your money will be refunded in full. Do not hesitate about accepting this test offer, as it is fully guaranteed.

FROM THE CONSULAR REPORTS

Brazilian commerce has been SuIleF- ing from extreme depression. Although the statistics published ev- cry week by the ministry of labor Of France showing the number of un- employed who are receiving financial assistance from the government do not indicate the exact number of unem- ployed in France, the fluctuations of these figures nevertheless give some indication of the labor situation. The total number of unemployed being as sisted at the end of January, 1921, reached 47,124; >this figure on April 30 increased to S4,s10. On June r the number had dropped to 60,565, and on June A it was 54,002.
 Despite the good crop reports, it will be some time before France can be independent of imported wheat.
 Finland is in position to export D. 900 100000 feet of lumber annually. Most of it is pine and spruce.
 In the fiscal year 1921 this country's imports decreased by S1, 1,5S4, 900 as com pared with 1920. This was partly due to lower prices. but in practically all cases the quantities were less. Hides, silk, rubber, wool and cotton showed the greatest slumps.
