"Ads" on Postage Stamps.

Advertisements, reports the West
minister Gazette, are to appear on the
back of British postage stamps and
on the walls of the post office, accord
ing to a statement by Mr.. Kellaway,
the postmaster general, at the 1920
club. Mr.. Kellaway hopes to derive
a substantial revenue from the inno-
walton, stating that he was mot go
ing to plaster the post Office with ad-
vertisementS, or have advertisements
on the back CT stamps, unless there
was a decent return to be got out
of it,
He stated that the post office had
invited tenders from contractors for
these advertisements. The Westmin-
ster Gazette understands that the adj
vertisements will be affixed to the
stamps before the gum is applied.
Although the work of obtaining adj
vertisements and fixing the terms Is
to be delegated to contractors, the
notices will have to be approved by
the postmaster general. :. is under
stood that all classes of advertise
ments except those dealing with alcO-
holic liquors will be accepted for ap-
prevail.

Whisky Not Necessity Of Life.

Whisky is not a necessity of life.
even for a Scotchman in the tropics,
according to a decision reached in the
courts of Nairobi, Kanya Colony,
East Africa, after lengthy legal argu-
ments, reports the London Express
correspondent.
The question arose over a case in
which a grocery store sued a minor
for goods supplied. The law says
that the only debts which can be re-
covered from minors are those in
Cured in supplying the necessities of
life. The debt in question included
an item of three bottles of whisky. 1t
was argued for the prosecution that
as the minor was a Scotchman living
in the tropics whisky was a necessity
but his arguments were overridden
and an order made for the debt, minus
the value Of the three bottles.

TELL OF PREHISTORIC TIMES
University CT Chicago Professor Reads
History in Specimens Thousands
OF Centuries Old.


Enormous ferns, gigantic rusnes and
club MOSES and strengthening trees,
many of them more than 100 feet in
height and with needles of two or
three yards length, and a host of in
sects, among which huge dragon flies
and cockroaches apparently FREEDOM
mated, once inhabited a swamp at
Braidwood H., according to Adolf
@. Noe, professor of peleobotany at
the University of Chicago
Professor Noe reconstructed this
picture of the vegetation and animal
life of prehistoric times from fossil
lied remains found in Skinner mine
No. 2, in the Braidwood district, fifty
seven miles southeast of Chicago.
''The Braidwood mine," Professor
Noe stated, lis now the best place
to find fossils in northern Illinois and
has somewhat replaced the famous
Macon creek deposits in popularity
with collectors.
1.-THE coal is found at a depth of
forty-nine feet and directly above it
is a grayish shale which the miners
call soapstone, and which contains
round calcareous stones If you crack
these stones with a hammer they split
into half like a sandwich, and on the
inside of each half you see the i'm
preston of fern leaves and other
plants of the coal era. Also insects,
fishes, crawfish and other small in
habitants Of land, water and air are
found, but the plants are most pre-
dominant.
"a considerable number of plant spe-
cies can be listed from Braidwood
and we are able to reconstruct in our
lmaginations a lively picture of the
vegetation of these long, bygone days.
There was once in Braidwood a
swamp which stretched far east, west
and south, and which was inhabited
by enormous ferns, gigantic rushes and
club MOSES, and strengthening trees
which had needles of two or three
yards length. Many of the trees of
that time must have been more than
100 feet In height, as we can judge
from the size of the trunk and leaves.
1.-THE animal population Of these
swamps contained small reptiles, am
phibia, fishes and a host of insects,
among which enormous dragon-fiies
and gigantic cOckroaches seem to
have been predominant. There were
no butterflies; no warm-blOodad ami
mails, no birdlike reptiles, no flowers.
Probably the only colors which living
nature provided were green, brown,
yellow and black. The sounds were
the crOaking of froglike amphibia and
the noise produced by cockroaches and
dragon-fiies; no singing of birds, no
chirping of crickets.
"a strange world! OF the enormous
vegetable masses which fell into those
swamps the coal beds were formed,
and 1OO,OOO,OOO years passed away be-
fore man came apd ultimately utilized
again the sunlight and heat which had
been stored up in these millions of
tons of COAL"

Shyuess OF Sandy.

In q rural district of Forfarshire a
young plowman went counting one eve

some interesting topic; he could call
up no subject at all suitable for the
occasion; not one sentence could he
utter and for two long hours he sat
on in silent despair.
The girl herself was silent; she no
doubt remembered the teaching of the
old Scotch song: Men maun be the

regarding him with demure surprise.

FORMER U. s. BOAT
 NOW PRISON SHIP
Argenta, Fitted Up With 800 Cells, Is Used to Conhne Irish Prisoners
 Recently Rounded Up.

Belfast, June 20, (By Associated Press) The former U. s. Shipping Board vessel Argenta has been re- fitted as a prison ship in which to confine the Sim Feiners captured by the Ulster government in its recent roundup.
 Six hundred cubicles or cells have been built, wire netting being used extensivelq, and the vessel, which will be stationed in Belfast Lough, will be ready soon.
 The Argenta was one of ten wooden ships laid up in British ports by the Shipping Board on completion of their only voyage from America to Eng land. After being laid up in Holy Loch, Scotland. she was sold to Ger man interests and later bought by a Belfast firm acting as the agent of the Ulster government.
 The greatest secrecy has surround ed her transformation into a prison ship as the Ulster officials feared at tempts would be made to burn her If the news leaked out

|CONFEDERATIONOF | 6 SMALL COLLEGES
Nova Scotia FaVors Plan Of
 Consolidation

New York, June 20.-Confederation on Of six small universities in Nova sco- tia and New Brunswick to form one strong university at Halifax Is recon mended in q bulletin published by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advance ment of Teaching.
 The six institutions of the maritime provinces which 1t is proposed to unite are Kings College. Windsor, N. S., Dalhousie University, Halifax, N. s., Acadia University. Wolfvile, N, s., Mt. Allison University, Sack vile, N. B., St, Francis Xavier's Uni versty Antigonish, N. s. and the University of New Brunswick, Fred ericton, N. R.
 To Raise Funds.
 The plan prepared after a study by pr. William s. Learned of the Foun- dation Staff and Dr. Kenneth c, M. Sills. president Of Bowdoin College, would involve raising s4,500,ooo of new funds. Each college would main- tain individual class rooms and dormi- tories for separate teaching of fresh men and sophomores. Advanced courses, honor courses and expensive laboratory sciences would be taught in central university controlled by a joint board and partially supported by the provinces.
 The bulletin maintains that the plan would permit the denomination al colleges to retain and strengthen their denominational character, and at the same time offer their students privileges possible only at universities of the first class.
 Touching on general educational conditions in the maritime provinces the two investigators reported that educational policy was a political product, the effect being spirit that education must keep its place." A widespread apathy toward public education" was attributed to Nova Scotia. where, the bulletin said, the universal attitude is to ''let the gov ernment do it, instead of the healthy threat to put in the people who will do it"
 These and other drawbacks the felt would be ameliorat- ed by the proposed amalgamation.

DOCTOR INDICTED
 0N MURDER CHARGE
Bodies Will Be Ezhumed for
 Proof

Washington, Ga. June 2o,-Plans were made to exhume the bodies of Charles w. Wilbanks and the first wife of Dr. J. G. Saggus to deter mine the cause of their deaths.
 This announcement was made after the arrest yesterday Of Dr. Saggus who was lodged in jail here on charges of poisoning the former Mrs. Saggus and Wibanks, a former neigh bor and husband of the present Mrs. Saggus.
 Dr. Saggus emphatically denied the charges and, attributed them to a frame up" born of jealousy. His denial was substantiated by Mrs Sag gus, but with the verdict of the cor oner's jury that the physician was guilty of a double murder in their hands officials prepared for the post mortem examination.
 In denying the charges, pr. Sag gus asserted that his first wife died last November of neuralgia of the heart and that Wilbanks died in February after an extended siege of asthma. He had given Wilbanks hypodermic injections to relieve his suffering, Dr. Saggus asserted The present Mrs. Saggus stated that she believed her husband was the victim of conspiracy of enemies.
 Testifying at the coroner's inquest, instigated by relatives and friends of Wilbanks and the former Mrs. Sag gus, physicians said there were symp- toms that both were poisoned but they could not be sure of the cause of their deaths.
 Letters designed to show improper relations between Dr. Saggus and his present wife before the death of Will banks were introduced at the hear ing. Dr. Saggus carried s5,o00 in surance on the life of his first wife, witnesses testified.

Cincinnati June 20, (By Associated

 Committee members refused to re- veal that disposition of the resolution would be recommended but several delegates wished to discuss the sub ject regardless of what action might be taken on the resolution. The in- vestigation was proposed by Matthew Woll vice. president of the federal ton; Benjamin Schlessinger, president of the International Ladies Garment Workers and James Doherty, of the Boston Central Labor Union.
