Uncle Sam recognizes China,and
is still on speaking terms with
Japan. _
After burying the hatchet, Mr.
Bryan quietly interred the cork
screw. _
California, it might be added, is
the state that is trying to keep the
“Jap” in Japan.
Having been officially recognized
as a republic it is up to the Chinese
people to keep their firecrackers at
home for their own “safe and
sane" celebrations.
THE GETTYSBURG REUNION.
On July 1, 1913. there will be
gin one of the most picturesque
pageants that the conntry has ever
seen On the battlefield of Gettys
burg will meet what remains, after
fifty years of the armies which
fought in that great crisis of the
Civil War. Only in history and in
the memories of the aging does the
bitterness of that sad conflict still
remain. The prosperous and
growing South joins with the
North and West in one national
unity. The old soldiers will march
toward one another, blue against
gray,until they meet, when they will
clasp hands in token of friendship.
The best good wishes of another
generation go with the venerable
men in their reunion. Every state
it that everything
is done to make this cremony as
vivid and picturesque as possible.
May the two flags mingle their
colors on the fields that so short a
time ago were drenched with blood
of the brothers and comrades of
these white-haired men!—Colliers.
MW CUKIitNCY BILL.
The demand throughout the
country for currency legislation is
so pressing that President Wilson
and leader Underwood have prac
tically agreed that a measure of
financial relief should pass at the
present session of congress. The
most important feature of the hew
currency bill will be a provision en
abling national banks to deposit
as a security, state, county and
municipal bonds in the United
States treasury, which will then
issue to them bank notes for cir
culation up to seventy per cent of
the value of bonds. This will in
troduce a large amount of elasticity
in our currency. Heretofore na
tional banks could only secure bank
notes for circulation and loans by
depositing government bonds as a
security. Furthermore many of the
restrictions for the loaning of mon
ey by national banks will be re
moved thereby giving them greater
freedom in affording relief to the
buisness and commercial interest
in their respective communities.
Hon. Carter Glass of Va., who is
chairman of the committee on
banking and currency has form
ulated an elastic currency oill and
he and leader Underwood, Pres.
Wilson and Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdoo, are in complete
accord on this measure. When
the new democratic tariff bill the
new democratic currency bill shall
have been put into operation this
country will enjoy the greatest era
of prosperity it has ever known and
what is more important still that
prosperity will be equitable dis
tributed among all classes of
industrious and enterprising Amer
ican people.

Magnets M Work
Many of us think that magnets
are but toys designed to amuse the
curious and the youthful. The truth
is that the magnet is very hard
working, indeed, and we could hard
ly get a long without its help.
The very first application of elec
tricity was the development of the
compass, which is nothing more or
less than a magnetized needle
cleverly balanced on a pivot, free
to point toward the magnetic
north. The very first compasses
were magnetic needles suspended
to silk threads, or thrust through
corks and floated in a basin of wa
ter.
Magnets have a thousand and
one daily tasks from picking a steel
filing out of a workman's eye to un
loading ore vessels. Magnets are
used to ring the electric door bells,
to handle red-hot ingots of iron, to
sort iron ore from the mines, but
they find their greatest service in
handling heavy castings, p>g iron
and steel billets. They have en
tirely eliminated the necessity of
handling ore and pig iron and rough
casting by hand or with the old
hook-on-chain methods. These
powerful lifting magnets are called
electro-magnets because their
magnetism is not always present.
It exists only when the electricity
is turned into it. The magnet, in
the form of a huge disk, is lowered
into a ship and the current tu-ned
on. Instantly a load of from five to
fifteen tons of pig iron adhere to it,
just the same as iron filings stick to
a pocket magnet. 'Tj'he crane lifts
the whole mass out and swings it
over the storage bins or yards
where the current is turned offand
the iron is left on the pile. It is a
matter of record that two of these
labor-saving magnets unload four
million pounds of pig iron in a little
over ten hours. Before the mag
nets were installed it required the
services of twenty-eight men, two
days to unload a boat of the same
capacity. Now the work is done
by two men stationed in cages j
and operating the magnets and j
crane from hand levers. At a big <
steel mill two men, using the mag- ;
nets, unload pig and scrap iron, j
These traveling cranes magnets i
have displaced twenty-five men
formerly required to do the same
work.
Throughout the entire iron and
steel industry the magnet is very
busy indeed. Magnetic ore separa
tors have been used for a great
many years Owing to this strange
niagnetic attraction bits of iron ore
can be easily and quickly separated
from crushed stone and dirt. The
crushed ore mass is allowed to fall
from a considerable height and that
portion of it containing iron is pulp
ed to one side by the attraction of
powerful magnets and falls into a
separate bin. The dust and dirt
fall into another bin.
All through the electric industry
the magnet is extensively used, in
one form or other, and very few of
i our common electrical devices and
, machines would be possible with
! out it.
Eyes Sunken With Pain

If the wound is cleansed and
the liniment applied promptly,
the healing process begins at
once and the wound heals from
the Inside outwardly, thus per*
forming a perfect cure that
leaves no scar. If the wound
heals on the outside too quick
ly. pus forms under the sur
face and breaks out into a run
ning sore that Is hard to cure
and inevitably leaves a bad
scar.
Owners of blooded stock pre
fer this liniment to all others
for that reason, and they use It
not onlv on fine animals, but
on human flesh, as it does its
work quickly and thoroughly.

The parcel post is an invention
that makes every day look like
Christmas in a postoffice. By
means of the parcel post one may
mail packages all over the world the
world at reasonable rates. Before
the United States adopted the
parcel post, it was possible to
send pacages to Europe or Germa
ny for a small sum.x but if a man
wanted to mail apackage of laundry
weighing five pounds to a nearby
by town the only way he could do it
was to mail it to England and then
have it mailed back.
Now. however, it is possible to
make almost as much use of the
postoffice department as if it were
a real public service corporation.
By means of the parcel post, the
unterrified citizen can order his
Christmas turkey at half price from
the bosom of the country and have
it delivered to him with or without
its head on Christmas morning by
the panting carrier.
The parcel post is designed to
give the citizen who pays for it as
much service as the congressman
who doesn’t. For many .years
congressmen have been able to send
bedsteads and milch cows home by
mail and we are assured that as
soon as arrangments are perfected,
the same privilege will be extended
to all.
When thistime comespostmaster
ships will not be so popular. When
the postmaster has finished stuffing :
an overgrown calf and a corn shell- j
er into a mail sack and has distribu
ted a quarter of beef, a bicycle, and
a dozen rocking chairs among the
various lock boxes in his office, he
will mop his brow and sigh for a
change of administration.
Under the parcel post the mail
carrier becomes oneof our principal
beasts of burden, and the man who
has a grudge against his carrier can
secure a horrible revenge by mailing
a few paving bricks to himself every
day.
