Cleaned from Foreign Ex- changes.

The miners have to reconcile them selves to the fact that they must be con- tent with wage which the industry can bear. We leave for the moment the ques- tion at issue between the miners and the owners as to the pooling of wages. There is yet larger question at issue Whether wages are pooled or not pooled, the total cost of production in this country must be got down to an economic level. or the industry will be ruined, and with it the rest of British industry. High costs and the threat of strikes and uncertainty started the evil, which will go from bad to worse unless all parties put their heads together to ind sound working basis.
 Americas Next Colonel George Harvey, who has been mentioned as the probable successor of Mir. Davis as the American ambassador to London, is well known as the editor of the North American Review. and is regarded as the most distinguished living publicist in the United States.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Daylight saving.

MT. Editor: notice your paper speaks favorably of daylight saving. Now am only plain citizen. working in factory, and I think if poll of the working peo- pie was taken you would find a majority opposed to it. We are juFt getting where we can get up by daylight It seems to me it is bad enough to get Hp all winter in the dark without prolo.4ging it any further. It may be all right for those who get to work a s or g a. nl., and those are the only ones I can find who favor it. If we must have ofange in time, why not do the same as New York from April 1st to Oct 1sfe think the people who go to work at or D. m. deserve some consideration.

THE kTTcHEN FLOOR

Whenever the material of the kitchen floor or the covering used on it, con- stant scrubbing and the excessive use of soap and water will injure the sur face. Care should be taken therefore, not to drop food on the floor. Spread ing papers where food is likely to be dropped or grease spattered will save labor in the end. A soft brush CT dust mop will keep a floor in better condition than broom and make mopping necessary less freQently.
 A large size dish mop kept in a con- venient place and used to remove drops spilled will save frequent scrubbing of of water or other liquids accidently the entire floor, and when dampened and wrung nearly dry can be used to remove spots or dust. If so used it will often prevent dirt from being carried from one part of the room to another.

IN THE DAYS NEWS
VII ERE AMERICAS MOST TREAS
 URED DOCUMENTS ARE KEEP


 The most important chronicles of some ancient nations have come down to present generations engraved on prophyry and marble. The United States. however, having existed who'll ly in an "age of paper" has all its most precious historical records in the form of paper documents. which can easily be destroyed by fire, and injured by dampness, extreme dryness, or rough handling.
 A recent fire which destroyed irre- placeable records in the Census Bureau at Washington, and almost siEnal- taneOus fire in the State capital of West Virginia which practically wiped out the archives of that State. have reinforced the argument of those urg- ing that a fireproof hall of records be built in Washington so the Federal Governments priceless papers may be kept in safety. What some of the most important and best known of these documents are. and where they are kept are told in the following bull letin issued from the Washington. D. C. headquarters of the National Geo. graphic Society;
 While the Constitution Is the most important document possessed by the United States, the Declaration of In- dependence comes first among our great state papers in point of time and probably in the hearts of the American people. The original of this challenge to tyranny which, like the shot fired at Lexington, has been heard round the world. and has helped to mould monarchles and colonies into republics is in the hands of the Department oi | State and is kept in a steel case in the State.

When picking poultry, handy receptacle for the damp feathers is a shallow box measuring about 12 by 25 inches, lined with white oilcloth and fitted with lid made of wire screen ing. Drop in the feathers, then place box in the sun and shake occasionally until the feathers are dry enough to be placed in another box for storage pur- poses.

PLUMP ARMS.

Although the three quarter length sleeve or one even shorter is fashion- able the woman with the over plump arm should beware. While the woman with the slender, well proportioned arm can wear this mode to advantage, the stout woman must remember that nothing will so detract from her ap- pearanee as the short sleeve.
