SUNSHINE NOT GOOD FOB ALL.
Blonde Races Fall to Thrive In Climate Like American Northwest. Charles E. Woodruff, of Manila, P. 1., discusses in the Medical Record the physical degeneration what is found to occur in north European races when they settle in the dry, bright atmosphere of the American northwest. Although the first generation does well, the second one is feeble, easily attacked by tuberculosis and other chronic diseases and the families die out in a few generations. The brunette races do well in bright sunshine, because they are accustomed to it, while the blondes are made nervous t by it. But it is the northern blonde races that give us the strong brains that we need to perpetuate our nation, and these do not come from the brunette races of the south. It is important for us to preserve these blonde types, and to that end it is necessary that physicians should advise them to keep from the influences that injure them. The best Aryan blood is being wasted from our nation at present. Scandinavian colonization is imixissible in the tropics. The average brain weight and intelligence increase as we go north in Europe, and this brain weight does count. We should favor the emigration of these northern races and preserve them as far as possible. Western and southern Alaska furnish a climate that is congenial to them. As a health resort for neurasthenics it is also of value, the cool, damp air being helpful and quieting to the nervous system.
A GOOD CHANGE
A of Food Works Wonders. The wrong food and drink causes a lot of trouble in this world. To change the food is the first duty of every person that is ill, particularly from stomach and nervous troubles. As an illustration: A lady in Mo. has, with her husband, been brought around to health again by leaving off coffee and some articles of food that did not agree with them. They began using Postum and Grape-Nuts food. She Bays: “For a number of years I suffered with stomach and bowel trouble which kept getting worse until I was very ill most of the time. About four years ago I left off coffee and began taking Postum. My stomach and bowels Im-proved-right along, but I was so reduced in flesh and so nervous that the least thing would overcome me. “Then I changed my food and began using Grape-Nuts in addition to Postum. I lived on these two principally for about four months. Day by day I gained in flesh and until now the nervous trouble has entirely disappeared and I feel that I owe my life and health to Postum and Grape-Nuts. “Husband is 73 years old and he was troubled, for, a long time, with occasional cramps, and slept badly. Finally, I prevailed upon him to leave off coffee and take Postum. He had stood out for a long time, but after he tried Postum for a few days he found that he could sleep and that his cramps disappeared. He was satisfied and has never gene back to coffee. "I have a brother in California who has been using Post urn for several years; his whole family use it also because they have had such good results from it.” Look in pkgs, for the little book, “The Road to Wellville.” “There’s * Reason.” ' Ever read above letter?

The grim granite structure that houses the Bank of England eloquently bespeaks the financial power which that Institution exercises throughout the civilized world. Its edicts carry greater influence than those of Rome, and Its power is farther reaching than that of the throne itself. By arbitrary fixing the rate of discount it can stem the ebb-tide of gold and cause it again to flow into its coffers. On its presentation of the financial needs of the kingdom it can dictate legislation of almost any kind. It has been well said that the Bank of England is the most powerful financial institution
WHAT IS GOOD?
,“What Is the real good ?” I asked in musing mood. Order, said the law court; Knowledge, said the school; Truth, said the wise man; 1 Pleasure, said the fool; Love, said the maiden; Beauty, said the page; Freedom, said the dreamer.

The Fateful Miss Douglas
Mrs. Ransom surveyed her tall brother meditatively, while he returned the scrutiny with smiling cheerfulness. John MacPherson was enjoying to the utmost the little visit to his sister, whom he had not seen since her marriage a couple of years previous, so he did not in the least understand why she should sigh and remark seriously: “It’s too bad; yes. It is!” “What?” he asked, lazily.
“Why, that you got here just the day after Isabel Douglas left town,” responded pretty little Mrs. Ransom. “She’s the dearest girl! She’s—” “Lives in Kentucky, beautiful as a dream, glorious brown eyes, most charming disposition on earth, is— ’’ “Where’d you meet her?” broke in Mrs. Ransom, breathlessly. “I never had the pleasure,” laughed her. brother “Only I had to sit one whole evening during my visit in Toledo and hear my hostess recount the charms of this most evasive Isabel. She had left there just the week before my arrival. I seem to cast a blighting shadow over her enjoyment; at any rate, she runs at my approach.” • a a * * But if he had not seen her the fame of Miss Isabel Douglas was destined to haunt his ears. During his visit at his sister’s he heard Miss Douglas’ name so frequently on the lips of visitors that he grew half irritated. It was impossible that any girl could be such a paragon—and if she was he had no desire to know her. When he reached Chicago on his homeward way he stopped to transact some business. Phillips, his lawyer, was most cordial in pressing his New York client to come out to his house and MacPherson was half induced to accept. His frame of mind experienced an instantaneous change, however, when Phillips added: “We’ve a visitor coming to-morrow you'd like to meet, I know—Miss Isabel Douglas of Kentucky. She—" “Sorry,” said Mr. MacPherson, decidedly, “but I can’t wait over a day on any account, my dear man.” Even in New York he was not left in peace. One of the newspapers printed a page of pictures and gossip about beautiful women and, idly glancing it over, the name of Douglas -caught his eye. He groaned as he looked closer—yes, the first name was Isabel. Then he searched for the picture of her and stared at it half Indignantly. It was a very lovely face, more than that, it was high-bred and thoughtful, u well as perfect in line and form.
Rules the financial world.
THE BANK OF ENGLAND, LONDON.
In a few weeks she had passed out of his mind entirely. But John MacPherson was not to slip out of the clutches of determined fate in this easy fashion. With no warning whatever, no premonitions of the trap before him, he climbed the steps of a Fifth avenue house one night to fulfill a dinner engagement. His hostess was a charming woman, and her dinner was famous. He was in a very pleasant frame of mind. As he opened the little envelope containing the name of his dinner partner he exclaimed to sharply that the welltrained footman could not forbear a glance of astonishment. On the .card was the name of Isabel Douglas. MacPherson, instantly in revolt, meditated flight for an instant, then realized how impossible that was and that there was nothing to do but go downstairs and meet her. At any rate, she should not add him to the list of victims report said strewed her path. He entered the big drawing room and greeted his hostess.’ “I’ve favored you to-night,” that lady said, smiling. “I’ve given you the prettiest and nicest girl here to take out to dinner. Do you know Miss Douglas of Kentucky?” “I do not,” said the helpless John MacPherson, crisply, and mentally set his teeth. In two minutes it was all over and he was properly introduced to her. Just what he had expected Miss Douglas to do was hard to say—he

had braced himself for resistance. But to his bewilderment, like a dash of cool water in his face, he realized there was absolutely nothing to resist. Miss Douglas, far lovelier than her picture, had given him one rare, cordial smile which revealed the secret of her potCer; for it was a smile speaking a sympathetic interest in the individual addressed, and then had not paid very much more attention to him, being interested in the conversation of a returned arctic explorer. ' 1 “1 MacPherson studied her at his leisure and as the moments passed found himself grasping wildly at all his ingrained prejudices against her. He had wits enough to reflect in a panicstricken way that if the mere sight of her was so charming, acquaintance with her might work marvelous changes in a man’s feelings. When they passed out to the dining room MacPherson found himself halting for something to say, a new exercise for him. The girl herself broke the ice by remarking that she thought she knew his sister—was not Nan Ransom out West that relative? Sh§ had mentioned her brother so often. "She certainly got In her gpeclal
in the world. In the very heart of London stands this low-browed, massive structure, streaked with soot and without even a window in its outer wails. This absence of windows is supposed to give greater security to its valuable contents, the light within being received from interior courts and skylights.

Architecturally it has nothing to attract, but it stands as a representative of a wealthy and influential empire.
brand of hypnotic work on me, all right,” he told his reflection grimly that night as he took off his cravat before the mirror. “But, then, she’s an exception!” John MacPherson was a man who went out after what he wanted when he got his mind made up. He never really made up his mind about Isabel Douglas, however—that is, deliberately. He did not have time. It was a fatal attack from the very first sight of her. And when he asked her to marry him, after she had been in New York two weeks only, and she very properly protested his haste, it plunged him into despair so deep that he made life unbearable for his servants. But Miss Douglas knew her own heart, too, after several years of experience in refusing numerous suitors, and she did not keep the man she found she really cared for waiting too long before she promised to marry him. “I don’t understand it in the least,” she laughed, blushing and shaking her head when she had said “yes.” “Neither do I,” agreed John MacPherson, promptly. “And I intend to marry you as soon as I wheedle you into naming the day, for fear you’ll change your mind.” Then he telegraphed his sister out West, who knew nothing of what had been going on in New York. Mrs. Ransom laughed and cried alternately when she got the laconic message. It said: “I have at last met Isabel. You can buy your gown to wear to the wedding.”—Philadelphia Bulletin.
SPENDS MILLIONS ON HORSES.
Germany Leads World In Import*, tlon—Chiefly Draught Horaea. From some statistics published recently by M. Ruan, the German minister of agriculture, the land of the kaiser leads the world in the matter of importing horses. In case of war the Germans are bound that they will be in possession of a liberal Supply of horses. For the last three years there has been a slight decrease, the cause being that home breeders are doing well. In 1909 Germany imported 119,000 horses at a cost of $20,000,000. Most of the Imports were made for draught purposes; light draught horses numbered 43,000 and were of the value of $4,500,000. The heavy draught horses numbered 48,500 and were of the value of $10,000,000. Supplies of the former class! were drawn principally from Russia, which sent 30,225 head; then came the Netherlands, with 9,024, Austria and Hungary accounted for 2,525, Denmark for 467, and the rest were drawn from France and Belgium. The heaviest of the draught horses were mainly supplied from Belgium, 20,000 being imported at an average price of $3lO. Denmark delivered 16,309, France 5,847, Austria and Hungary 3,369, Russia 2.051, the Netherlands 64 and England only 125. In 1908 Germany Imported 267 half-bred sires at an average cost of $1,020, most of them being from Belgium. Saddle horses are put down as numbering 6,562, of which Austria supplied 2,946, Against 2,227 from England. These latter figures include the thoroughbreds. The favorite market for cheap horses for Germany has been Russia, which country supplied 16,888 at an average cost of $75.
