To recover from the bottom of Canadian streams the sunken logs that are lost while on the way from the logging camps to the mills a newly organized corporation will employ machinery specially adapted to the purpose instead of the ordinary devices used for moving timber, it was announced in Popular Mechanics Magazine. Compressed, air and high pressure water streams will be used to loosen the logs. As 10 per cent of the logs cut sink and remain embedded for various periods without losing their value by deterioration, the business of raising them should prove to be one of great commercial importance to lumbermen. Quite So. •‘Now this sleeping beauty slept for twenty years.” -C‘lf there’s anything in the beauty nap theory, that Jong a sleep ought to make anybody beautiful.”—Louisville Courier-Journal.

Somers, wife of General Somers of Civil war fame, he was the twentieth chief executive of the United States to whom, she had been introduced. Mrs. Somers made her debut at the White Housfr on the arm of Daniel Webster when William Harrison was president. The aged la’dy declares that since that time she has attended many of the social functions given by presidents and that she was intimately acquainted with many of the executives. Washington has been her home for 90 years. Despite her advanced age she is very active and in the stormiest or hottest weather can be seen among her wards —the poor.
