Chance the Farmers Missed. A great opportunity for amassing wealth has slipped out of the hands of every farmer and gardener this year, simply because they did not know now to grasp the opportunity, and there was nobody to tell them about it. The disappointment is temporary; the opportunity will return, says the Bos- ton Golden seal root, for instance, is wanted by druggists, and is worth $12 & pound, and it might have been grown in quantities in the United States. The farmer who had seen the possi- bilities in its culture could have reaped a rich harvest. And many American families will remember tbe time when the arnica flower was a common flow- er, which the old folks saved and used for a home remedy for sprains, but the commercial prospect tn its culture has not been realized and it has been al- fowed to disappear until now it is worth $5 a pound. Druggists will be giad to pay that much money for It. Real Trial. Mr. and Mrs. Brown decided to have a spin in their new motor car. They had proceeded just three miles when the car broke down and refused to re- start. Mir. Brown got out to make a general inspection of the working parts, which, needless to say, he knew oothing about. He had been under- neath the car for some considerable time and had done little toward repair- ing except using bad language, when his wife intervened. “Now, John,” she said, “I won't have you using such language. Have pa- tience, like Job.” “Job be hanged!” replied John test- ily. “Job never had his nose fast in & cog wheel.” ; ' a P No Recommendation. Signor Marconi, in an interview in Washington, praised American democ- racy. “Over here,” he said, “you respect a man for what he is himself—not for what his family is—and thus you re- mind me of the gardener in Bologna who helped me with my first wireless apparatus, “As my mother’s gardener and I —_—_— Were working on my appaiatus togeti= | *r a young count joined us one day, and while he watched us work the count boasted on his lineage. i “The gardener, after listening a long while, smiled and sald: | “‘If you come from an ancient fam- | lly, it’s so much the worse for you, | sir; for; as we gardeners say, the old- er the seed the worse the crop.’” | Timorous Lover. A woman went into a store fora pair of slippers. She asked the shop as- | sistant to get her a pair about size 10, | and she wanted them squeaky. “They are for my father,” she added. “Squeaky, miss? I'm afraid we have | not got any of that kind.” “Couldn't you make him a pair of | squeaky ones?” asked the young wom- an. “There is a young man who visits | te frequently, and it would be very | convenient for him to know just when | is coming downstairs.” Population Congestion. | | According to the most reliable esti- | mates the population of our globe fn | 1913 was 1,631,517,000. Two-thirds of | | this total (Europe, 448,000,000; India, } 808,000,000; China proper, 826,000,000 ; Japan, without dependencies, 52,000,- 000) ape concentrated upon less than one-seventh of the earth's surface. | The eight largest cities of Japan | (1918) are: Tokyo, 2,100,000 inhabi- | tants; Osaka, 1,226,000; Kioto, 442,000; | Yokohama, 394,000; Nagoya, 378,000; Kobe, 378,000; Nagasaki, 176,000; and | Hirosima, 143,000. | Korea, whose population was not exactly known before its annexation to Japan, had, in 1913, a population of , 15,458,000, | Find Canoe 1,000 Years Old. Workmen eng in the dry river bed of the Nam: awa Osaka pre- fecture in Tokyo have unearthed a huge canoe made of camphor wood. | The part so far dug out measures 40 feet in length, 6 feet in width and 26 inches In depth. According to archeo- logists the canoe is about one thousand vears old.
