By Roger Batchelder. “Labor for the mines of Peru is heap, yet it js expensive.”’ ‘That was the paradoxical statement it John Tinker Glidden, a mining en; eer, who has been in Veru for the st fourteen years and is now at the mnsylvania. “The native worker jent,"" he explained, ‘‘and it is not ossible to use other miners. Aji of important mines are located at ch a high altitude that only natives ‘an stand the rarified atmosphere. A orson born at Sea level never seems | get acclimated. But despite the} the mines of that | ejountry can be worked more profitably | nan those of the United States, be- ‘ause the ores worked are far richer han any found here.” Mr. Glidden said the future of Peru, @‘Hepended on the rise of cotton and) bther South American products in the ew York markets. | “About a year and q half ago,"’ he went on, “exports thok a decided iump, and as the local Government receives the greatest part of its rev- enue from export taxes, almost every- thing automatically went off the tax- HW able list, and many sources of revenue became free products.

Reformers may rave and rant about the attire of the woman of to-day, but it is much more sensible and sanitary than the dress of our grand- mothers—take it from Dr. Allen K. Krause of Baltimore, managing cditor of the American Review of Tubercu- Yosis at Johns Hopkins University. “Women’s dress to-day does not sontribute to il] health as much as it did formerly,” he asserted. “In the first’ place, women are no longee sweeping up the filth of the streets with their trailing skirts, Dresses are reasonably short.
