ENEMIES HAVE ATTEMPTED TO ! 0U8T GOVERNMENT'S EXPERT

CHEMIST BECAUSE OF HIS VIGOROUS ACTIVITIES. Washington, Jau 10. Little or no credence Is given the widely circulated

story that Dr,. Harvey W. Wiley, the government's chief chemist will resign from the department of agriculture because of reported differences with the president over the prosecution of

the pure food law. It may be said with authority that Dr. Wiley has had no A ff ronnoa ' with 4Via : -rvtc Atr v rm

does the president desire the chief chemist to recede from his uncompromising attitude toward all violators of the pure food and drug act. To those who have watched the effect of

this law since its passage two years

go, it would act as a great surprise if the president let Dr. Wiley leave Ik. Ji 1 1 1 M ... nll

than that a trivial difference had dis

turbed their harmonious relations. Enemies Successful.

It would seem that the president had

t last surrendered to the interests which have long sought to discredit

Dr. Wiley because he has carried the brunt of the fight waged by the department of Agriculture to expose criminal violations of a law whose effect is

now regarded as one of the greatest

of public blessings.

The president and Dr. Wiley may be

said to represent extreme radicalism in their desire to see this law upheld,

not only by the government, but by the food and drug manufacturers as well. Both believe that the persons who manufacture and sell foods known to contain substances harmful to human , health are to be counted among so

ciety's greatest enemies, and should be dealt with accordingly. The penalties provided, by the present " law are inadequate in the opinion of both these men, and it is not unlikely that Dr. Wiley will recommend to the Taft administration that the law in certain s respects ?. be amended to impose severer punishments on its violators. ; President Helps Orphans. Hundreds of orphans have been hftlhert bv the President of The Indus

trial and ' Orphans' Home at Macon, .. Ga. who writes: "We have used Electric Bitters in this Institution for nine years. It has proved a most excellent medicine for Stomach.

PORTABLE VILLAGES.

Vereeeiane Move Their Hoiim Frost , Place to Piece. ' The Turcomans, who live on the eastern shore of the Caspian sea, carry their villages about with them when they travel. As a tribe sets out on a journey every man packs his .wooden

bouse anon' a camel, .which the anima

van easlJy carry, and when a spot is

reached where he and his friends intend to remain for any great length of 1 time the camels are unloaded and a village started which it takes about an hour or so to build. It is to be remembered that the houses are real bouses and not tents and that the settlement is not a camp, but a village. The traveling house of ' the Turcoman is a' marvel of skill and Ingenuity and is really much lighter, more portable and can be packed into a. much smaller comp than any of the so called, portable houses that are manufactured and sold in some parts of our country. ." . r , . The frame is made of strong, light wood laths about an Inch broad by three-quarter of an inch thick, crossing each other when set up In position at right angles about a foot apart and fastened at each crossing by the thongs of rawhide so as to be movable, and the wholo framework may be opened or shut In the same manner as those toys for children that consist of a equad of wooden soldiers and will expand or close at will so as to form open or close columns.. , One part or more made in this way and U inclosing a circle fifteen or twenty feet across form the skeleton of the walls and are firmly secured in place by, bands of ropes made of hair or wool fastened round the end of each rod. . From the upper ends of these

rods similar rods bent near the wall and Into something less than a right angle are so disposed that the longer portions slope to the center and, being tied with rope, form the roof. ' Over this is. thrown a covering of black felt, having in the center a larite

uwe wnicn answers both for a window and a chimney. Large pieces of the same coarse black felt "are wrapped round the walls, and outside these, to keep all tight, is bound another frame

C split reeds or canes or of some very light, tough wood bound closely togeth

er wiin strong coras.
