Japanese Coral.

1t is reported that about 6o,oVo
pounds of coral, worth 100000, are
taken each year from the coral beds
Of Japan. The work is done by divers,
the master diver receiving and grad
ing the coral as it is brought in.
Wholesale and exporting firms keep
representatives there to inspect the

most expensive Is "boke," pale ounce
color; next in value is pink, then white
light red and dark red.

Wants ToRent
 ANiceOldPalace?

Constantinop1e, Sept 1.-The s,1b- lime Porte Is considering seriously the note from the Allied High Commits s1oner regarding the reduction of gov ernment employees, and it is expected that action will be taken which will make good the monthly deficit of 500,000 Turkish pounds in the wages to government servants.
 In addition the Sublime Porte has decided to abolish the legations and consulates in various neutral coun- tries. Orders have already gone out for the closing down of legations and consulates in Madrid, Berne, The Hague and Stockholm. Several gov ernment buildings of secondary inn portance will be evacuated and rent ed to private concerns. Some pal aces on the Bosphorus will be rented to mil1ionaires.
 The economy measures provide also for the reductions in the salaries of school masters, hospital nurses, and office boys; the abolition of super f1uous government offices and the re- tirement of a large number of army and navy officers.
 The Finance Ministry has decided to withdraw worn paper money notes from circulation. The government, together with two delegates of the Ot- toman Public Debt, is devising a plan to this end. Worn paper money of one, two and a half, five, 20 and 25 piastres notes will be withdrawn from circulation and replaced by metal pieces of equivalent value. No more metal money than the amount of pa per money withdrawn will be struck.

Goodbye Stamps,
 Walls The Emperor

Berlin, Sept. 1.-One of9the last remaining symbols of the old regime tn Germany will pass away with the withdrawal of all postage stamps of the familiar "Gernaania' type on Oc- tober 31 next
 This striking design. first adopted in 1900, played measurable part in fostering the militarist movement that brought disaster upon the Fatherland.
 The original of the mail-c1ad figure of Germania was F'raulein Anna Fun ring, Of the Imperial Opera, whose portrayal of the role so impressed the former Kaiser that he ordered her likeness to be placed upon the new postage stamps of the Empire
 Since the establishment of the Re- public numerous protests have been lodged against the continuance of this design, and now that the new indus trial series of stamps has been com pleted. instructions for its ppression have been issued

ILLS MAKE UNHAPPY
 HOME

There is no question but what the Ills of women conspire against domes- 1c harmony. The husband cannot understand these troubles and the Physician finds it hard to cure them; therefore the overworked wife and mother continues to drag around day and day out with headaches and backache, fretful and nervous.
 Such women should be guided by the experience of women whose let ters we are continually publishing tn this paper. Many of them declare that they have been restored to health, strength and consequent happiness by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound after doctors and all other medicines had failed to help them. It will surely pay women who suffer from such ailments to try it.-Adv.
