Buying up cows and then disposing of them, he said is unprofitable and time has come for the farmer to realize that he must raise his own stock.

In view of a recent achievement in long-distance aero flights and the uses to which the flying machines have been put in the European war, it is interesting to recall that Sun day a few weeks ago marked the thir teenth birthday of the airplane. Only thirteen years and what wonders have been accomplished! Warfare has been revolutionized and surprise attacks rendered almost impossible by this marvelous invention. A couple of young men who owned a bicycle repair shop in Dayton, 0., used their spare time to "tinker" on a flying machine. The neighbors considered them crazy but harmless. Finally they hit upon a contraption to which twin propellers and a 16 horsepower, four-cylinder gasoline motor were attached a winged af fair with a movable or elevating rud der in front, which looked like a cross between a large eagle and a nightmare. This machine they took to the Kill Devil sand hills, near Kitty Hawk, N. C, and on Decem ber 17, 1903, made four successful flights, on one of which the airplane traveled a distance of 852 feet. And now aviators go winging their way across half a continent SURELY A COLD CHRISTMAS Testimony That Carried Weight Given by Last Speaker In a Conference of Gifted "Rememberers." Wondel Cold?

IUr t'Ki: RAILWAY STATIONS ' Ki M-1 NOT JUST WHAT HE WANTED Soldier Traveling In Hot Country Might Have Dispensed With Woolen Comforters Sent Him. The darkest tragedy must have its comic relief. The recent Indian troop train disaster, when a score of men died and 200 .were takep to hos pital through being sent a thousand miles across the' Sind desert without ice or aerated water, was no excep tion. A relative of one of the men who went through the terrible -ordeal, sending home word of his own safety, described how he arrived at Bawal Pindi, in the last stages of heat-exhaustion, and found a parcel await ing him. "Practically desiccated," he wrote, "I had scarcely the energy to cut the string, but curiosity triumphed even over my desire for bed, the punkah, and ice water oh, unlimited ice wa ter! A pal. got up from full length on the floor and crawled across to come and see. It might be pineapple or something! It wasn't It was those nice, warm woolen comforters you sent to me at Bulford, whence they had been forwarded, and. for which many, many thanks. Perhaps some day I may be sent to Russia." TEWA INDIAN NEW YEAR'S DAY People Have Belief to Which They Have Not Been Able to Make Others Adhere To. . December 81 was New Year's day to the Tewa Indians. There are only about 1,200 of the Tewas in Ave villages; San Juan, Santa Clara, San Ildefanso, Nambe and Tesuoue. They hold ancient be liefs deduced by themselves from things as they are. To Tewas, six cardinal directions are north, south, east, west, above and below. Each direction is colored and has an animal" to signify it. North is green and personified by a lion. The Tewas believe the sky is the husband of the earth. They believe the sun is a man who walks across the sky behind a yellow shield in summer, clad in white deerskins or namented with beads. In the win ter he is green. Their year begins founded upon the belief that the sun stands still in the sky to mark a new twelvemonth. ..' v im II. i . M A . 4A , . A .A. OLD MAID INSURANCE NOW In Vienna Women Are Able to Obtain Policies on Chancee ef Marriage. A form of insurance that is likely to prove popular in America has ap-y peared in Vienna. It is that of insur ing a girl against being an old maid. The new form of insurance grew out of the probability that there Would be a great shortage of men following the war and a consequent certainty that there would not be enough to go around. ' This insurance is just as business like and efficient in its arrangements as is life insurance, according to the Kansas City Times. Instead of pass ing upon the applicant's health the agent bases her acceptability as a risk upon her degree of beauty, personal charm and wifely qualities. The prettiest girls are the best risks, the homely ones having to pay the high est premiums. There appears to be only one dif ficulty about the arrangement ' Who is to fix the age at which the insur ance becomes payable? To claim the insurance would be tantamount to an admission on the woman's part that there is no hope of her winning a husband. And a great philosopher has said that a woman resigns the idea of getting married only with life itself. And another equally great philosopher has remarked that hope springs eternal in the feminine breast So it would seem the insur ance company has got all the better of the arrangement SARDONIC, Man on Top Pardon mel The sidewalk's rather slippery this morn ing, eh? ' Man Underneath Yes; that is true. But have you noticed it is also hard and cold ? FOR FUNERAL SIMPLICITY. Elimination, of professional or paid singers and a general toning down in the splendor of funerals of the dead is urged by the Evangelical Ministers' association of Atlanta, Qa. The association adopted resolu tions asking that funerals be held on some day other than Sunday where possible, and that lengthy funeral sermons be cut down to a fewawords. Part of the resolutions read: "We urge upon all people the good form of utter simplicity in all things per taining to the burial of the dead." TRAINING JAPANESE ARTISANS. A realization of the opportunity created by the war for Japan to take the place of Italy in the production of carved coral has led the Japanese government, through the marine ex periment stations, to undertake the training of artisans in the carving of coral for sale in Europe and Amer ica. It is hoped by this measure to increase the value of coral exports from the $500,000 received each year for the crude coral exported to $35,000,000 for exports consisting entirely of carved coral. PORTLAND CEMENT. Portland cement manufacture is now established in South Wales on a large scale. In the extensive area from Penarth where the new fac tories have been constructed, west ward, beyond Aberthaw, cement making materials of such nature and quality are found that the product from the district has already estab lished for itself a reputation to be envied. The position of Great Brit ain in the markets for Portland ce ment is illustrated by the figures for the year 1913, when the largest pro ducing countries were Great Britain with 3,000,000 tons, Germany with 5,000,000 .tons, and the United States of America with nearly 15, 500,000 tons.
