The carrying of revolvers Is very common upon all occasions, and the assertion is made that fully three fourths of the men of Honduras have revolvers of some., kind or other, writes an American consul. The peo ple who can afford them know and ap preciate the quality In high grade makes, but the great bulk of the de mand is for a gun costing about half what these high grade weapons sell for. At present this demand Is large ly filled by cheap European Imitations ot best American makes. Thus, one of the revolvers moat frequently seen here Is an outright Imitation of the Smith & Wesson. It is made In Spain, and contains the words, along, the top of the barrel: "This revolver will shoot Smith & Wesson cart ridges." It retails for the equivalent of about . The popular demand Is for a 38 callber revolver, that can be retailed for about $5. Scientific Forestry. As the cause of conservation gains strength, the demand for professional ly valued foresters Increases. Al ready there are 28 students in the new course of forestry at the Ohio State university. The work appeals to a sturdy type of young men who realize something of the extensive value of forestry service and have a fondness for outdoor life. As would be expected,' the course Is strong on the side of science and mathematics, which are fundamental In forestry. It Includes surveying, forest botany, geology, timber physics and entomol ogy, and an extensive array ot special forestry courses. The student is re quired to study a modern foreign lan guage for two years. The course is four years In length and leads to the degree of bachelor of science In for estry. There were ip Russia In 190S, 2.G7G Todka breweries, 1 fiscal spirit distil lery and 43 sections of the same, 511 private distilleries, 26 reserve stores and 27,402 shops for the sale of vod ka. The total amount of vodka sold during the year was 232.813.3S2 gal lons, a consumption of 1.C6 gallons per capita. Aids Nature The great cuocess of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis- covery in curing weak stomachs, wasted bodies, weak lungs, and obstinate end lir.gcrinjt coughs, is based oa the recognition of the fundamental truth that "Golden Medical Discovery" supplies Nature with body-building, tissue-repairing, muscle-making materials, in con ' densed and concentrated form. With this help Nature . supplies the necessary strength to tho stomach to digest food, build up the body and thereby throw off lingering obstinate coughs. Tho "Discovery" ri-estahlishes tho digestive and nutritive organs in sound health, purifies and enriches the blood, and nourishes tho nerves in abort establishes sound vigorous health.

"I began to have an Itching over my whole body about seven years ago and this settled In my limb, from the knee to the toes. I went to see a great many physicians, a matter which cost me a fortune, and after I noticed that I did not get any relief that way, I went for three years to the hospital. Dut they were unable to help me there. I used all the medicines that I could see, but became worse and worse. I had an inflammation which made mo almost crazy with pain. When I showed my foot to my friends they would get really frightened. I did not know what to do. I was so sick and had become so nervous that I positively lost all hope. "I had seen the advertisement of the Cuticura Remedies a great many times, but could not make up my mind to buy them, for I had already used so many medicines. Finally I did decide to use the Cuticura Remedies, and I tell you that I was never so pleased as when I noticed that, after having used two sets of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura I'ills, the en tire Inflammation had gone. I was completely cured. I should be only too glad if people with similar disease would come to me and find out the truth. I would only recommend them to use Cuticura.

DIRT ROADS CAN BE. KEPT SMOOTH BY SPLIT-LOG DRAG Homemade Road Machinery Serves Good Purpose Split-Log Drag is Officially Commended by J. Hyde Pratt, North ' Carolina State Geologist Is Cheap to Make and Easy to Operate Keeps Ruts Smoothed Out and Leaves No Place For Water to Collect. Not always Is expensive machinery necessary to keep public roads In con dition for traffic. The road drag is coming more Into use each year; and even this may be homemade and inexpensive. It is said by those who have given thorough test to the matter, that ther.e is nothing so effective as a drag, even a split log drag, upon dirt roads. Any county can drag Its roads. "Gat the drags "out on the roads after every hard rain, and smooth the ruts oft the surface," say authorities In several of the States where the Journal-Herald national highway has wrought an awakening. "By this tneans the roads are kept from drying with ruts; therefore they are not rough after they are dry. By this tneans, too, the ruts being kept smoothed out, there is nothing when the next rain falls for the. water to accumulate In, and be churned to soft mud with the dirt. The water ot the next rain flows off to the gullies, and the road dries sooner." OFFICIAL INDORSES IT. Joseph Hyde Pratt, State Geologist Cf North Carolina, one ot the three good roads judges who have awarded fCtt TbMkE IT m Itw cat eve it 5.'' the prizes In the national highway good roads contest, has published an official treatise on the split log drag In the form of Good Roads Circular No. 46 from the office of the North Carolina Geological and Economic Survey. The circular presents a picture of the split log drag, shows how it is built, how much it costs to build, and how it is operated. Herewith is re produced" the picture ot tho drag, and here are some extracts from the circu lar, which is worthy ot wide circula tion. HOW TO MAKE DRAG. "Lately a good deal has been said and written regarding the road drag and Its uscfulhess, and under certain circumstances its value can hardly be overestimated," says the circular. "On account of this fact, it has been thought advisable to present a practi cal form ot drag that is applicable to any farm community and can easily be constructed by any one, even those who are not familiar with this ma chine. For this purpose a cut has been prepared, which Illustrates in detail how such a drag Is made and gives tho bill of material needed for Its construction. "Most drags are dodged so that when they pull at an angle they will exactly 'track;' but when the drag Is made in that manner It can only bo used to go one way on one side of the road, while It made as described above, it can be used on either side, which Is often ot very great advan tage. "The stretcher hook may be hitched In at any place desired to give the angle to the drag that Is dC3lred. This drag will work either end forward simply by a change In the hitch. All that Is necessary Is to move the hook on the chain. A little practice will soon make any one expert in the use ot this drag. HOW IT IS OPERATE!?. "To operate this drag, throw a board six feet long and ten or twelve Inches broad on the ties and brace about midway between the drags, Which is for the driver to stand on. It will be Interesting to notice the effect ot the driver changing his posi tion on the drag. Step one foot on the fron'. ot the drag and it will cut and carry material until the weight is removed; step back on the rear drag and the front one will drop Its load and the-rear one catch it. Step forward again and the latter drag will drop its load. In this way a lit tle practice on the part of the driver will enable him to become very pro ficient in filling up holes. It it is de sired to crown the road up, stand with superior weight on The front and a little to tho ditch end ot the drag and let the drag have an angle of about forty-five degrees." Turkish Tublic Ronds. Consul E. L. Harris, writing from Smyrna, describes the roadways of Asiatic Turkey and difficulties they present for motoring, as follows: The public roads in this vilayet are In a bad condition. Generally speak ing, road building In this part ot Tur- key Is not In an advanced state, and but little attention Is paid to It. Large appropriations are made from time to time by the Government for the purpose of building highways In cer tain parts of the country. Good roads are often built with this money, but no appropriations are made to keep them In repair after they have once been laid out. Some twenty years ago a splendid road was built from Magnesla-on-the-Meander to Sokla. About the time this road was com pleted a branch ot the Aldin Railroad was extended to the same point, run ning almost parallel with the high way. From the time the railroad was completed the public highway wag permitted to fall Into disuse, and now it Is extremely difficult for even a camel caravan to use It. The recent floods In the Meander Valley have destroyed a good roadway which led from Aldin, a town tn the centre of the fig district of Asia Minor, across the plain to some of the finest orch ards known In that region. It Is feared by those Interested In figs that the road will not be repaired In time, If at all, In order that this season'! figs from that particular district may mr OF MATERIAL M Met.

The roads In the immediate vicinity of Smyrna are kept in a fairly good state of repair. This is more or less due to the initiative and energy of the British residents of Smyrna and the two suburban towns of Bournnbat and Boudja. One enterprising Eng lishman practically built the road be tween Smyrna and Bournabat, a dls tance of five miles, and he gets the interest on the money invested and keeps up repairs by charging a toll on all vehicles which traverse the road. He is also the owner of the only automobile in Smyrna, a ma chine which he Imported from Switz erland two years ago, but about the only place he can use it with any de gree of enjoyment at least Is on his own road between Smyrna and Bour nabat. I am also Informed that a second road is being built by him, in the' same way, to connect the two suburban towns of Cordelio and Bour nabat. It is therefore self-evident that the condition of the public roads in this part of Asia Minor will always militate against the use ot the auto mobile In these parts, and it is ex tremely unlikely that this country will ever offer a market for these machines. The general make-up of Turkish cities and towns also acts as an ob stacle against the introduction of au tomobiles. The streets, apart from being narrow and winding, are paved with cobblestones and are extremely rough. This primitive pavement is gradually being replaced by flag stones, with which all principal streets are now being laid. Unfor tunately the preparation of the road bed prior to laying the flags is so In sufficient that within six months a newly paved street is practically in need of ropalr. It Is hardly to be hoped that conditions In the road and street line will soon change In Tur key. Tity the Poor Cowboy! Dr. Harvey W. Wiley,' the famous food expert, said at a dinner In this city, apropos ot the meat boycott and the cold storage discussion: "The trend ot modern life seems on the surface to be toward preserved instead of fresh foods, but there Is no Buch real trend, save among cer tain dealers. "Who," said Dr. Wiley, "would like to be In the boots cf the cowboy in tho barren sagobrush country who used to send in, week after week, the same order to the storekeeper: " 'Canamllk, canacow, canajam, canabutter, canacake, canascrapple, canacorn, canaham, canaplums.'

They Were to Show That a Person's Intentions Were Peaceable The custom of firing a salute In honor of admirals, captains and other naval dignitaries as well as other forms of greeting originated In the desire to show to the person saluted that the saluting person was unarmed and could do the other no Injury. This was a very Important matter In the olden days when most people went armed and violent encounters were quite common. When any one approached another It "was necessary to assure the latter that no harm was Intended, and this sign ot good faith was made by tho newcomer's hand ling his weapons in such a way that they would be useless tor Immediate action. The present courteous raising of the cap or hat had its origin in the removal of the basinet, or small metal helmet, an act which showed an absence of fear by leaving the head of the wearer open to attack and which likewise occupied his right hand, so that he could practically make no assault. The dropping of the swordpoint to the ground now as when the sword was In more active and ready use makes the weapon temporarily of no service, says St. Nicholas. The bringing of arms to "present" in sal utation ot superiors is a custom of precisely similar origin. The ancient custom of entering the presence of royalty uncovered like wise originated in the desire for safe ty. So also did that ot retiring back ward from the royal presence. In either case the person admitted to the throne, with his swordarm occu pied In holding his helmet, could not easily reach or use his weapons. These precautions In medieval times were very necessary, when it is con sidered that the king, prince or duke, being seated, would not be able to defend himself Immediately or even readily against sudden attack. The word "salute" Itself has the Idea of "safety" in it, as it comes di rectly from the Latin saltis, signify ing "health," then "welfare." To "salute" is to wish health and safety. The root of the word goes back to the Sanscrit sar, which meant to "pro tect" or "guard." " ' Naval salutes are Interesting to landsmen as well as to Jack tars. The artillery salute Is the survival of one of those ceremonial practices which formerly had some definite meaning, ajd Is meant to signify not an honor to the flag or representative of a friendly nation, but also that the ves sel saluting has no hostile intent. Shotted guns'fired by the full arm ament ot the ship were used in the seventeenth century, as If to say: "Now every gun is empty and we are unarmed." Blank salutes became the eighteenth century fashion, but like many other customs of that polished, formal period, were carried to a ridiculous eitreme. When In due time It became the practice to give a special salute for a certain rank or occasion the odd num ber of guns in which all salutes are measured was selected In order that the salute might open as well as close on the "honor" side of the ship, the vessel's starboard. When the United States first attained national stand ing the existing national salute of twenty-one guns was adopted, in ac cordance with the usage of other countries by our army and navy. So in International usage the na tional salute for every country Is of twenty-one guns; while the American national salute, used in our own country, Is one gun for every State, forty-six guns now being fired on state occasions. The earliest instance ot this domestic salute was that which history records as given at the ! raising of the first American flag, when Captain John Paul Jones fired 1 thirteen guns, one In honor of each of the thirteen original States. I The number of gunB fired in an ar tillery salute varies in accordance vwith tho rank of the officer or person age saluted. The President's salute Is, of course, twenty-one guns. Ad mirals of the Navy, Generals of the mlrals of the Navy, generals of the Army, Governors of the States, Am bassadors from foreign countries, and Justices ot the Supreme Court are sa luted by a salvo of seventeen guns. Salutes gradually diminish in the number of guns fired until they reach the lowest grade, sovon for a Junior commanding officer or our Consul at a foreign port. j Custom varies In European coun tries, but all foreign rulers have more powder burnt in their honor than is consumed in the American Preslden- , tlal salute. King Edward and Queen ; Alexandra are saluted with a salvo ot fifty-one guns, and members of the royal family and important state and military personages receive a fewer number, the details of which are of course sot by law. Kaiser Wilhelm outranks any other contemporary sovereign, being saluted by the larg est amount of noise, the Imperial sa lute consisting of one hundred and one guns. This Is the standard for emporors and for some" kings. The birth ot an heir to the throne ot a state is signalized by one hundred and one guns also, as happened only recently when the little Princess of Holland was born. Twenty tons of ostrich feathers, valued at more than $500,000, were recently carried by the Maurctania to New Vork City. Crime in the United Kingdom costs the State about $30,000,000 a year.

CONSERVES TEAK FORESTS Siamese Government Lenthent Veaaam to Save Valuable Timber. ViceConsul-Oeneral Carl C. Hanaesi of Bangkok, reports that beginning with December; 1909, the leases of th teak forests of Slam have been length ened from six to fifteen year. Th smaller leases have been consolidated and regrouped, the larger of thes areas being divided into two halve, of which one is leased for fifteen rears and the other half reserved, and tha right being given to work ail the may ture teak In the open half area during the currency of the lease. This scheme makes possible a grear er economy In the working of the, forests and, therefore, the government has raised the royalty from $165 to $4.38 per log. On account of tab ar rangement it is expected that the teak output from the Siamese forests wlB be somewhat lessened for the next Sf teen years, but an increase mar am looked for In the succeeding llfteea years of the new leases.
