PANAMA AXD A FREE PORT.
The deliberations of the South
ru c. miacruial congress at Mobile,
ays the ft raul Pioneer Press,
vere conspicuous for the evidences
>1 the new 3i>>i it at work among
Vuiericau Mislnets moil. The com
»letion of tne Panama caual has
•hallenged their resourcefulness,
heir imaginal'i n and their ability
o cope with the var'*»d conditions o
South American <rade as never bo
"ore, and it was gratifying to wit
less the manner-ill which they pro
Jose to meet that challenge.
Notable among the projects set
orth or grappling with the prob
em o* increasing ouiv^South Ameri
;an trade was thit of W. D. Boyce,
he Chicago publisher, who pleaded
or the creation fo a great Arneri
:an city on the Panama canal zone
vhich should be a free port, invlt
ng t e ships and the commerce of
ill the world to enter there free of
luty. Exactly as British trade and
ihippinw have been increased by
he creation of the free port of Lou
Ion, so American trade and shipping
vould be benefited by setting up a
ree port in the* Panama canal zone,
vhere the ships of every nation
nighi load and unload without the
lamperiuf restrictions of customs
lues.
Apropos of the comparative fall
ire of the United States to gather
n Its share of Latin American trade
>ne mii;11 quote to advantage the re
nark of an English profsesor of his
:orv 'hat England lost the Ameri
:an colonies because King George the
Third aud his m'nisters lacked im
igina'i"u in their dealings with
:hem American business men
lave been in danger of losing their
lold on South American trade be
tause thev lacaed imagination. They
gnored the preferences and the
n'ishe-s of their Southern customers,
md European merchants took trade
iway from thesn. But the spirit in
ividencc at the Southern commercial
:ongress reveal3 the loosening of the
)ouds of ima'-inition in the struggle
if the United States for South Amer
can Irade. It is high time.
"If a President, pays too much at
;ention to bein«? re-elected, it is
LifficuU for him to be worth re
jection" said President Wilson in
1 reccii'. addiesi. Which causes
3illy BTyan to smile and say "amen'
Evr-u after the $210,000 la do
ducted fro the late Adolphus
Busch's property for charity, there
should be enough left in the $50
000,000 estate *o permit the fam
ily to worry along.
Isn't it great to be Ambassador
to Germany? It only costs Judge
Gerard, America's new ambassador
at Berlin, $15,000 a year for house
rent, and he gets $17,500 salary.
Respectability Killed Him.
There was a hermit In the center of
London only a few years ago. His
hermitage consisted of a cellar—the
.sole vest 1 ne of a house Iri Clare mar
ket pulled down and forgotten by its
owners. He lived there for a long
time, supported by scraps of food from
the tradesmen of the neighborhood,
and might have lived there longer still
if a Journalist hud not "discovered"
him. lie was interviewed and photo
grnphed to death, for the workhouse
authorities, nearly nest door, who had
hitherto Minted a blind eye toward
him. wert- compelled to oust him from
his hermirace and make him clean and
respectable—a fnocess to which he suc
cumbed.—London Mail.
Driving a Bargain.
Old Mr. Reeman was decidedly penu
rious. but as his premises were becom
ing overnin with rats he decided to en
gage a professional rat catcher, when
the following conversation took place:
"There. Mr. Beeman." said the rat
catcher. "I've cleared your premises
of the varmints, and I take 'em all
away with me. You'll have no further
trouble with rats, I assure you. and
you won't have to bother about the
Sead ones either. I'll put 'em right In
this box. The bill Is $5."
Mr. Beeman peered anxiously over
the rims of his silver rimmed specta
cles. "Don't 1 get anything for the
rats?" he inquired—Denver Repub
lican.
Reduced Him.
A London advertising expert whs
prtte'.ng In New York the change that
has mtif over the advertisement. "In
advertising .v* In other things." he
said, 'it ha«. found that honesty
pays, and today, truoughout the world,
the successful auVeitfcer is modest
and conservative ia hi* statements.
Advertising is no lotuw mistrusted.
Things are no longer as th*y were in
Phatt's day. He weighed over 400
[•onnds. Well, he saw an ad. hi the pa
i>er—'Fat folks reduced. $5'—and he
•inswered It" "Did he get any reply?"
;ked a listener. "Oh. yes; it was
iust as advertised." "That's good.
How much was he reduced?" "Why,
lust ns the advertisement said—$5."

Kodak way makes it as simple as it is fascinating. No bother
to learn. Daylight loading and unloading. No dark
room needed even for developing and printing.

gan using Doan's Kiduey Pills and
