Chapter On Quarreling.

One Of the most easy, common and
most perfectly foolish things in the
world is to quarrel, no matter with
whom, man, woman, or child; or upon
what pretense, provocation or occasion
There is no kind Of necessity in it,
and no species or degree of benefit to
be gained by it, And yet, strange as
the fact may be, theologians quarrel;
politicians, lawyers, doctors and prin-
ces quarrel; the Church quarrels, and
the State quarrels; nations and tribes
and corporations, men, women and
children, birds and beasts quarrel
about all manner of things, and upon
all manner of occasions.
If there is anything in the world
that will make a man feel bad, il is
unquestionably a quarrel. No man
ever fails to think less of himself af-
/ ter, than he did before one; il degrades
| him in his own eyes and III the eyes
of others-and what is worse, blunts
his sensibility to disgrace on the one
hand, and increases the power of ir-
ritabilty on the other.
The reason why people quarrel
about religion is, because they have
so little of it: and the harder they quar-
rel the more abundantiy do they prove
it. A man has right to stanl fast
by his religious faiSl---a right % in
sist upon it-a right 20 present It re-
spectfully on all proper occasions to
the consideration of others, but he
has no lustifable right to quarrel; and
any man that will quarrel about these
things, in my opinion has not much tc
quarrel about.
Politicians need not quarrel. Who
ever quarrels with man for his po.
litical opinions, is himself denying the
first principle of freedom, Freedom oil
thought, moral liberty, without which
there is nothing in politics worth {
groat; it is therefore wrong upon prin'
ciple. You have on this subject righ
to your own opinions; so have others
You have a right to convince them il
you can; they have right to do the
same. Exercise your rights, but AGAR
| say, do not quarrel.
The truth is, the more quietly anc
peaceably we all get on, the better
the better for our neighbors. In nine
cases out of ten, the wisest policy is
If man cheats you, quit dealing
with him; if he is abusive, quit hi:
company; if he ISLANDERS you, take care
to live so that nobody will believe him
no matter who he is, or how he mis-
uses you, the wisest way is generally
to let him alone; for there is nothing
better than this cool, calm, quiet way
Of dealing with the wrongs we NEE
with.

How to See Down a Well.

1t is not generally known how easy
a matter it is to explore the bottom of
a we'll, cisterns, or pond water by the
use of a common mirror. When the
sun is shining brightly hold a mirror
so that the reflected rays of light will
fall into the water A bright spot
will be seen at the bottom, so light
as to show the smallest object plainly.
BY this means we have examined
the bottoms of wells fifty feet deep,
when half full or more of water. The
smallest straw or other objects can be
perfectly seen from the surface In
the same way one can explore the bot
tom of the ponds and rivers, if the wa
tiers be somewhat clear and not agitat-
ed by winds or rapid motion. If a
well or cistern be under cover, or
shaded by a building so that the sun
light will not fall near the opening,
1t is only necessary to employ two
mirrors, using one to reflect the light
to the opening, and another to reflect
1t down into the water Light NAV
be thrown fifty or hundred yards TO
the precise spot desired, and then
downward. We have used the mirror
with SUCCESS, to reflect light the house
to -ha1ed well, and also to carry il
from south window through two

Ford Turns Out
=, 900, 0O0th Motor
Next One Comes Through
5 1-3 Seconds Later

Ford motor Number 5000, 600
was listed from the assembly line
in the Highland Part Ford Plant
at 9:14 AM. May 18th. Just
51-3 seconds later Number
6, O0O,001 was finished.
The unusually heavy demand
for Fords cars and trucks at the
present time has necessitated the
building of 54O0 motors daily.
These are shipped in carload lots
to the various Ford assembling
plants throughout the United
States.
The first model "T" Ford was
completed on October 1st, 1908;
number 1000, 600 left the assem-
bly, line December 10th, 1915; and
number 5,O00.0 600 came through
May 28th, 1921.
Although the Ford Motor Com
pany turned out a number of diff
ferent models prior to 1908. the
present numbering system began
with the first model 'T''.

FOREIGN TRADE
ISCUT In HALF
Official Figures Show Largest
Percentage of Reduction
in History.

Foreign trade figures Of the United
States in the calendar year 1921 show a
heavy reduction in the stated value Of
the merchandise entering and leaving the
country. In no single year in the history
Of our foreign trade. says the Trade Rec
ord Of The National City Bank of New
York. have the official figures shown
such a percentage Of reduction. The to-
tai foreign trade of the country, imports
and exports combined. stood at l8 l-2
billion dollars in the calendar year 1920,
the highest total ever reached, and eleven
months figures ending with November.
1921, justify the assertion that the total
for the full year just ending will not ex-
ceed s7.OOO,0OO,OOO and will probably
fall little below that total as against
49, billion dollars one year earlier.
The reduction in the total values Of the
merchandise entering and leaving the
country in 1921 will be about 48 per
cent; in imports the reduction will be
So per cent and in exports
IS per cent.
The general causes of this tremendous
decline in the value of every group Of
articles imported or exported and also

reduction in the trade with every grand
division Of the world, lie primarily, says
the banks statement, in the fact that
the prices per Unit Of quantity are in
most OF the important articles less iIln
half those of a year ago and ,.,ai in
many instances given quantity OF rler-
chandise being nov imported is rslacd
at less than half that at the same date
last year. Our biggest imports are, of
course, in manufacturing maicTia's, b
dia rubber. hides sad skins. wooi, r. =
silk. raw cotton, fibers. and tin. The
rubber imported in October, 1921, enter
ed at II cents per pound aGains; 81 cents
in the same month OF last year; cattle
hides at 10 l-2 cents I pound against
p cents; carding wool al "a cents a
pound against 40c year ago; raw cot
ton in September l6l. cents against 54i:.
cents in September of the preceding
year; tin 27la cents pound against
~ cents year earlier. The only impor-
iant manufacturing fatcria which has
failed To show big fall off is raw silk
In foodsiuffs conditions are similar. the
sugar imports of October. 1921, averaging
Two and eight ienihs cent per pound
against 1879 cents in October Of the pre-

food there is a material reduction.
