ASH IS NOT GENUINE TEST

Merely Shows That Cigar Is Well Made, Not That its Quality Is ' of the Highest. i

Can the quality of & cigar be told by the ash? To a certain extent it can. Many smokers take a great delight in seeing how long the ash will stay on. It is often possible to smoke a big Havana cigar half or three-quar-ters way through with the ash intact. | But what 'most cigar smokers fail to realize is that: this is the test of a well-manufactured cigar and not necessarily of the tobacco in it. It depends upon the length and neat arrangement of/the filling leaf. A wellmade, compact cigar has greater consistency than a badly put together one. But it does not follow that the tobacco is better, a tobacco expert writes. A surer test is when the ash is flicked off. The glowing point should be sharp. The sharper the point tf)e better the cigar. oo As regards the ash, it is a common fallacy that white ash is a sign of a fine, and dark ash the sign of an inferior, leaf. The real truth is that the color depends upon the strength of the tobacco. : - S A very mild and cheap cigar will give a pure white ash. The finest Havana of ripe. strength produces a blackish ash. It does not follow that a cigar which burns imperfectly is bad tobacco. You may have lighted it badly or it may be clumsily made.—~ Brooklyn Eagle. : |

ELOQUENT TRIBUTE TO TREES

Writer Beautifully Expresses What Every Lover of Nature Must Have at Some Time Felt. |

Trees are the arms of Mother Earth lifted up In worship of her makers ; where they are, beauty dwells. Trees are the shelter of man, beast and - bird; they furnish the roof above us, the shade about us, and the nesting places of love and song. They call children out to play; they entica sweethearts into leafy coverts to seal their vows with fond caresses; they console and gratefully reward old age. They are the fittest ornaments of wealth and the inalienable possession of the poor, who can enjoy them without having title to them. They are the masts that fly the flags of all nations and the sails of all seas; they are the timbers that bridge forbidding streams: they bear the wires of the world’s intelligence; they hold the rails that carry the traffic of the continents: they are the carved and polished furnishings of the home; they cradle the young and ceffin .the dead. Trees herald the spring with glorious banners of leaf and bloom; they clothe the autumn in garments of gold and royal purple; bared to the winter’s cold, they are the harp of the winds, and they whisper the music of the infinite spaces.—Clarence Ousley.

Useful Oil.

Few industries have grown so rapidly as the manufacture of cottonseed oil. In 1867 there were only four cottonseed oil mills in the United States; in 1902 there were 618, and by 1920 the value of the oil and the by-prod-ucts of it were estimated to be $125,000,000. Since then there has been a steady increase in the production. The increased consumption of cottonseed oil is due largely to the great variety of uses found for it. It enters into the manufacture of lard compounds, butterine and other 'substitutes for butter; is used in packing and preserving fish, in making salad olls, and in the manufacture of socalled “olive oil.” The crude oil is used in medicine, in the preparation of cosmetics, liniments akd emulsions; as an illuminating oil in miners’ lamps, for rough painting, and for tempering edged tools; and as soap stock; in which’ fleld of usefulmess, after treatment with certain alkalls, it yields seap, washing powder and glycerin,

Is No, National Holiday.

Christmas is not a national holiday. New Year's day is not a national holiday. Thanksgiving day is not a national holiday. The Fourth of July is not a national holiday. Neither is Memorial day. Neither is Washington’s birthday. Neither is any other day. ‘There is no such day as a national holiday in the United States.- A United States statute would be required to eonstitute a particular day as a national holiday, and congress has stopped short of this action, numerous constitutional lawyers insisting that such an act belongs to the powers of the several states and not to the general government, P The Fourth of July is not strictly a national holiday, though it is a na-tion-wide holiday, having been made a holiday by acts of all the states and by the common consent and usage of the people, Sl ba oy

THIS AIREDALE REAL FRIEND

Dog, Allowed Liberty, Brings Dainties " to Hound Which Is Confined to Its Kennel.

Kind heartedness that might well serve as an example for human kind is' displayed by “Pat” an Airedale} pup of Point Pleasant, W. Va, says a correspondent, the object of its fine feeling being a hound owned by Bert Shiflet. The story of the four-footed pet’s benevolence is attested by members of both families, who are neighbors. Shiflet keeps his hound, “Jack,” tied in the back yard. Thomas’ Airedale, however, has the untrammeled liberty of a freeborn American dog and makes the most of it. He is a good forager and knows the location and probable yleld ‘of every garbage can in the neighberhood. Mrs. Shiflet feeds Jack generously, and not infrequently the menu contains an appetizing bone, but she did not give Jack ‘all the bones that accumulated beside his kennel. All became clear the other day when’ Mrs. Shiflet saw the Airedale approach Jack’s kennel with a big soupbone in his mouth, set it down in front of his tethered friend, wag his tail gleefully, bark a message of good cheer, dance playfully abouf for a moment and then dash off for some new adventure., A watch kept on the Airedale showed that trips were made to the hound’s quarters every day. Sometimes instead of a bone the offering was a bit of meat or some other. dainty. ’

OLD MINE STILL PRODUCING

That at Falun, Sweden, Has Been Delivering Up Its Riches Since the Year 1225.

On the outskirts of the town of Falun, in the north of Sweden, is the oldest mine in the world. It began to produce copper in 1225, - In the Seventeenth century this mine was the chief source of the copper supply of Europe. Today it no longer produces copper in large quantities, but from its deep-cut galleries come the sulphur pyrites that are used for the manufacture of sulphurie acid and other chemicals. ‘ It is one of the most old-fashioned mines imaginable. You will find no rapid hauling machinery, no cage that descends at lightning speed into the bowels of the earth. Yeu walk into. the mine through sloping galleries, and then climb down to its depths by means of long ladders. As you descend you wish that you had brought an evercoat, for the walls are covered with ice. : : Ventilation and ‘drainage are accomplished by means of the most antiquated pumping gear in existence in any pit. b e Besides copper and pyrites, the Falun mine produces gold. From it came all the gold used to make the Swedish crown and scepter, and it has provided most of the metal for the gold coinage of that country.

Photography of Words.

Devaux-Charbonnel, the French scientist, has photographed the'variation of current in a microphonie circuit by the aid of a Blondal oscillograph. The photographs are reproductions of the syllables proneunced by a human voice, and it is expected that they will be of use in the: solution of various problems in telephony. In studying the impression made by syllables the experimenter found that each syllable i composed of 30 to 40 complete vibrations. The begining and the end of the syllables are modified by the impressions of the consomants, but the modifications cover only four or five periods, so that each syllable has 20 to 30 regular vibrations eorresponding to its vowel. The method permits the study of the higher harmonics, which give character to werds.

Codfish 1s said to be the werld's most important—which meang the most eaten—fish. Few fish are more _prolific. It has been asserted that one "weighing 75 pounds will contain over 9,000,000 eggs. Perhaps the tarpon id one of them, for it is a large fish with a very fine roiT The cod is practically omnivorous, finding means to supply great schools wherever food of any sort is found. It is found in many parts of the world other tham the North American “banks” and it is sald that it has been fished for by fishermen of northern Europe since the beginning of recorded history and ef course for unaccountable centuries before man began to make written reecords. ; _ : A

Cord Tire Facts.

A 30 by 3% cord tire contains almost 9,000 feet of cord or over a mile and a half. A 35 by 5 has over 30,000 feet of cord or over 5% miles. The cord, similar to medium-weight ﬂshing. line, is made of long fiber cotton, of far better grade than used in ordinary, cotton goods. Each cord, insulated in rubber, is separated from the next by ‘a layer of 'rubber insulating, which gives additional strength. A standard make five-inch cord tire has 20 to 26 cords per inch and a strength in fabrie carcass alone in excess of 2400 pounds to the square inch, irrespective of the strength given by other parts,
