Coral Reefs Far From Ocean.

Mention of coral reefs naturally brings to ones mind a picture of palm dotted inlets girt with white sands in a tropical sea, but geologists have found coral reefs in the middle of the great continents. These, of course, be- long to the past ages of the earth's history, and Psleoxoic corals have been found tn the T1man-Urals and in the Salurian rocks of the New Si- berian islands, but the most striking characteristics of these fossil corals are similar to those of the corals of today. It is assumed that you re- ter to number of remarkable coral reefs that withiA recent years have been explored near baiBhridge on the Flint river, in Georgia These reefs are ascribed to the Tertiary age, and in one case a very large portion Of the reef exposed consisted of coral heads, some of which were more than 6 foot in diameter. Between % and 30 species of coral have been reeog- nized in these reefs.

No Husband Is Perfect

Don't expect all the virtues in one man. If he Is good Datured he may be lazy; If he is scholarly, he may be cold; if he Is thrifty, Ae may be stingy; if be is generous, he may be wasteful; if he is smooth, he may be deceitful. The man who charms you with his immaculate appearance is likely to be something of an old maid the man who Is careful to pick threads off your skirt is prone to pick flaws in you; the man who takes an undue in- terest in the selection of your hats may take an undue interest in the bill which comes home; the man who, be- fore marriage, jumps to open the door, lest your fingers be contaminated by the knob, may after marriage, allow those same fingers to be contaminated by the ashboard.-Woman's Home Companion.

MAKE FRIENDS WHEN YOU CAN
Sought te Add te HIs Acqualnt-
 anosa Every Day. Y.

Ny hobby is snlarging my acQuzint- ance. For years I have found pleas ure and profit in trying to know ss many people as I can. I aim never ts let the sun set without knowing at least one more person than did when l started out in the mLkning, writes Fred O. Kelly In Leslie's. Why7 My answer is: Why not7 Life Is made up of human relations. As look at it the more human contact achieve the fuller my life should be. By human contact l don't mean just being la crowds, or places where people are. \ mean meeting people, getting their points of view. Lots Of city folk who have plenty of daily opportunity to meet and know people don't get ac- quainted with as many as a man | know who lives on a farm and never comes to town. Meeting people is one thing, making friends or getting ac- quainted with them is another. Inas- much as human beings are admittedly the most interesting things on earth why not know as many of them as pos sible? If there are men who derive pleasure fEem collecting stamps, rare coins, canes, love letters, dogs, why shouldn't l give little serious thought to collecting a long list of friendsF And if I am a more successful nusi-l ness man in consequence of having many friends all the better for me.
 Everybody you know is potentially a help to you. There is no way Of telling when the humbiest person among your acquaintances may not have momentary importance in some thing you are trying to do. once was able to get information that meant a successful contract through the fact that chanced to be aequaint- ed with the fireman in one of the hs- tels in San Francisco.

PROFIT GOES TO UNCLE SAM
All Paper Money That Goes From the Treasury and Fails to Return
 Is ASNeIvsts

If you subscribe to the philosophy that one mans loss is another mans gain, to whom do you suppose, does the profit accrue when you forget to take your package from its hiding place In the parlor stove before light ing the fire in the fall? If you drop a dollar bill and 1t blows into the gutter and is never recovered, wno profitsf
 If you fall into the river and drown and your remains take their place per manently in Davy Jones' locker, who is to the good to the extent of the modest roll in your vest pocket2
 The answer to one and all of these questions is, Uncle Sam. Every piece of paper money that goes cut from the treasury and fails to return, profits the government to the extent of its face value. If 1t is a gold or silver certificate the metal which was placed in the treasury for its redemption is never called forth.
 If it is a federal reserve note or q national bank note, the securities that at the time of its issue, or their equiv alent, remain In the treasury. So is there solace to the patriot who so loses his wallet thht If 1t is not found by another it's contents are applied to the expenses of the government

container cost per pound.

container cost per pound.
 Appearance-A container should present an attractive appearance, both on arrival and when opened, and should show the produce to ad- vantage. Of course, new containers are more attractive than those which have been used; and only those sec ond-hand containers which are clean should be used again.
 Cost-The cost of containers puts distinct limitation on small ship ments of farm produce. A shipment must have considerable value in or- der that the transportation charges and cost of container may not equal large percentage of the price. The price which can be reasonably paid for container will depend on the value of the contents, the cost of transportation, and the price re- ceived for the produce as compared with the price that could be received locally. A maximum price that should be paid can not be stated, as each case must be decided by study ing all of the factors involved.
 Cheap splint baskets are satisfac- tory for many kinds of produce. For products that need no special type, attractive and satisfactory contain CTS often can be made by the produ- cer at low cost from clean, dis carded paper-board boxes in which merchandise has been shipped.
