THE MORTGAGE VINDICATED. The mortgage was the chitf stock in trade cf writers of the cld-tiroe melodrama and of the cheap novel that preceded it. In their hands the claim against the old homestead or the newly-built cottage of the poor but virtuous young hero become a weapon as deadly as a woman's tongue. According to their way of presenting the matter, the man who put a mortgage on his land or house placed himself at the mercy of soms miserly old Shy lock, who thenceforth devoted himself to plotting the ruin of the mortgage In order that he might possess himself of the property in question. The crux of many a 10-cent matinee hinged upon the appearance of this old skinflint to dispossess the unfortunate widow or the struggling yung hero on the day the mortgage fell due, with no funds in bank with which to meet it. And doubtless a lot of that sort of thing actually was practiced in real life in bygone days. But not so now. Today the mortgage is a recognized business instrument of vital importance in 75 per cent of all the real estate transactions. It is not a sign of poverty, but of thrift, and nobody forecloses a mortgage except when driven to it by dire extremity. And so the ancient horror of the mortgage that might spell ruin has been dissipated by the understanding that the mortgage has become a means of property holding and ownership that without it would be impossible.

and the megtherium belong to an era of only 1,000,000 years back. And this venture may have some interest even for the citizens little informed about such things. Although these ancient monsters throw no light on the so-called vital issues of the day, they afford an opportunity for a new perspective on life. Evidence of animal life on this manysided planet dating back 10.000.0Q0 years may strike one as another of the fairy tales of science, but it is no less wonderful and diverting than rre the fairy tales with which the young are entertained. Much modern fiction is of less account than would be the story of the doings of a plesiosaurus in action 10,000,000 years ago. At least there would not be discussions as to whether the narrative was destined to cure a social ill.

BUSHNELL'S ANIMATED CARTOONS IN EIGHT REELS

WHAT WILL THEY FIND ? WHl the scientists now scouring Patagonia for a specimen of animals of an earlier day find a pleslosaurus, a specimen of the horny plated glyptdoa, or only a megatherium? The, scientist is more concerned about this than the average ctizeru What does it matter to the latter whthere to the animals on earth are added a couple of horny plated glyptodons or a megatherium or two? All he asks Is that the megatherium thing stay in the Andes mountains, or wherever he is supposed to be. But In the annals d science ft -would mean something if this plesiosaurus-searchng party in Patagonia, should talk a member of this old family to its lair. This animal goes back 10,000,000 years they say, while the glyptodon

AMERICA SHOULD LEAD. A man who did not learn from his neighbors some way of doing things which they seemed to do better than he does would not be thought enterprising. Particularly if they could show that their way of doing is better than his. The same thing must apply to a community tfr nation which does not take advantage of more efficient methods of putting its resources to work and of curtailing its waste, when such methods have had ample demonstration in other countries. In the matter of America's national timber waste there are wonderful lessons in the history of the timber industry in this , country. With reckless disregard of the future Uncle Sam has wasted his substance. Not content with wanton cutting of the timber, but scant returns were gotten on what lumber was put to use. But even in days gone by the vast expanse of available forests might have been justifiedly lured the country into this recklessness, there is today every reason why dwindling timber resources should lead to the opposite extreme of conservation. By methods as saving as those of former days were wasteful, the future may yet be faced with some degree of assurance. We have been told again and again, and we can verify this assertion at any time, that European countries have gone about the business of conservation in a systematic and successful way. We pride ourselves on our ingenuity in cutting down costs, on our efficient methods in devising schemes to make simple and inexpensive processes that were once elaborate and co3tly, and still in this industry we are even today under the sway of old habits of cutting timber so that only 45 per cent of the tree felled is made to serve a useful purpose. -More than half of it is waste, serving no purpose whatever. The example of more efficient methods is right before our eyes. Nor would any American admit for one minute that we could not improve on European methods if we set our hearts to this task. We should not be satisfied in trailing behind the rest of the world in this respect, and more than this, we cannot afford it.
