It has been contended that the { legislation conmcerning the Panama canal should have nothing to do with ‘coastwise transportation which will not | be interested in the canal, and the senate took that view of the matter re- gardless of the action of the house. The senate measure is the more rea- sonable and more likely to become la Railroads cannot operate ships in the canal which are engaged in trade be- tween ports of the United States, but thelr vessels engaged in transoce the eargo to transoceanic ports, will *be permitted the use of the canal ‘This is for the protection of American sbipping in general and to save the independent lnes of vessels. For the big transcontinental railrouds and steamship lines to do business through the canal would mean that competition would be stified and the big roads would bave the control not only by land but by water. The railroads have for years obstructed and delayed tha building of the canal and would Ilike to modify or destroy its competitive effects. After the great expenditure in bulMing the great waterway the Amerfean people should get all the benefit from it that is possible, USE OF ALUMINUM. Aluminum 1s becoming one of cheaper and tmportant metals and extensively used now in the manufs ture of all kinds of articies from cook- ing utensils to automoblles, placing fron to a large extent. The great Increass in its use is due to a great extent to 2 reduction of its cost, for whers It used to cost when first commercially produced back in 1833, the goodly sum of $30 a pound, and within the last generation sold for dollar an ounce, it is now possible secure it for a quarter of a doll pound. Fortunately ailuminum oxides are the commonest of all earth and the supply of the metal is practi limited when a cheap process of ex- traction is discovered ‘The last annual statist! h 1 to abs of the United States gives the produc- tion in this country in 1910 as 47,734 090 pounds and places the valve at $8.955,700. This a gain of 3% per cent, over the previous, when 3 3 ,000 pounds wers consumed and of 227 per cent. since five years earlie o: in 1905, when consumption was only 11,347,000 pounds. Hydroelectric plants have been responsible for this reduc- tion in cost, which has meant creassd production or an in- nto all branches he meta néss and where aluminum oo utensils used t mxury x of the price ther arc now cheaper an more extensive.

Everybody always seems ready to doubt a fish story, and hence a doubt- ful story of any kind is said to be; “fighy.” T will not stand good for the truth | of this story about a bear going fish- ing. It is sald_to be true where it happened; but I give the story omly for what it is worth. On the banks of a Canadlan river, 8o the story runs, there was once a rock In which a large circular well bad been worn by actlon of the water. This rock proved a great attraction to a certatn large brown bear, which, having a special fondness for salmon, would watch at the hole till one of these flsh, In attempting to leap a small waterfall at this point, was thrown back exhausted Into the rocky basin when it would quietly scrape it out with its huge paws and devour the dainty morsel, If anyone should doubt the truth of this story, he will probably have to remain in doubt forever, for it is re- ported that the rocky well where the bear went fishing has been demolished, and there is now no way of proving tnat this story is an exception to the usual run of unreliable fish stories. ROSE ALMA DEMUTH, Age 10. Baltlc, An Intelligent Cat. Mrs. Blade had & cat that was very intelligent. It would follow her every- where she went. When she thought she had walked far enough she would purr until her mistress picked her up. One morning, very early, she brought In a large rat, and put it on her mistress’ bed; and when her mistress woke up she saw the rat and picked it_up and put it near the fireplace. The next morning she brought in five more rats and put them near the fireplace where the other had been. The mistress took them and threw them away. One morning while Mrs. Blade was Golng her cooking the baby started to cry. The cat came and pulled at her apron and meouwed and walked to- ward the baby. Mrs. Blade could not leave her cook: ing and the baby began to cry again; the cat came and did the same thing, and went back to the baby. When Mrs, Blade could leave her cooking she went to see what was the matter, The cat was sitting near the baby holding up her paw and the | taby had stopmed its crying and was looking at the cat. Every time the baby cried the cat would come and draw Mrs, Blade's at- tention to the baby. If she did mot come right off the cat would jump up cn the bed and amuse the baby. HBNRIETTA BURLY, Age 12.

A White Bear Mr. Schurr took the boys into the woods. It was evening and they were sitting around the fire telling stories to each other. Suddenly one of tho boys jumped up and pointed into the woods, and said: “I saw a bear.” They had no guns, so they put long sticks Into the fire and ran after the bear, waving the burning sticks. The bear ran into a cave in a hill and they could not get at him. So they built a fire in frout of the cave: the smoke went inside and choked the bear, and he ran out and tumbled down hill. They ran after him and found a man with a bear's fur around him. The man was a friend of Mr. Schurr, and had tried to frighten the JOSEPH W. PRU. Eagleville. Age 11. The Story of Two Worms.

In a great Hoosier Club sale just closed in one of our neighboring towns 25 club members were secured in three weeks’ time. These club sales are held under the direct supervision of The Hoosier Manufacturing Ca., and ordinarily are more limited in membership. A canvass made a few weeks ago among our customers, however, revealed the fact that such a high percentage of the women we talked to wanted to join the Hoosier Club, that The Hoosier Company has allowed us to make this offer m? 25 women in this community to introduce the Hoosier Cabi- net on a large scale to those homes who have never known what a tremendous time, labor and step saver it is. | You may join the club now and have the cabinet deliver- long ed later if you prefer, but enter your name early before the club membership Is filled, | 14 haye Jolned this club to date} feaving 11 more to| come, If you wish {o be one of these 11, get busy and see us | at ence.
