HIS NOTION OF EQUAL BASIS
Farmer Ransom Played No Favorite*
Where Work Was Concerned,
Yet Men Were Scarce,
There was only one thing in the
world of which Eben Ransom thor
oughly approved; that was hard,
steady work. “I hope,” said the
philanthropic spinster who was
spending a fortnight at the Ransom
farm, “I do hope, Mr. Ransom, that
you treat all your men alike; give
them all equal advantages and wages.
I find a varying standard, if I may
use the expression, makes so much
trouble and discontent among labor
ers in any field of work.”
Mr. Ransom surveyed her gravely,
and nodded assent.
“You’re right there, ma’am,” he
said, dryly, after a moment. “There
is just one rule for the folks that
work for me. ‘Begin as early and
keep it up as late as there’s light to
go by, and you’ll get your one-fifty
a day, unless the times are unusual
hard, when I make it one-twenty
five.’
“But I tell you, ma’am, you can’t
get as many fellers to work on an
equal basis nowadays as you might
think.”—Youth’s Companion.
THE EX-EMPRESS EUGENIE.
The Empress Eugenie, who has
had so many years of heartache,
finds her comfort in getting close to
“Mother Earth.” At her Riviera
villa she leads a very quiet life, and
in her garden often weeds the beds
with her own hands, still so delicate
and pretty, though old. No half
withered bud or blossom is left on a
rosebush or a plant, and she knows
how to wage war against slugs and
snails. At Sir Thomas Lipton’s es
tate in Colombo, where she was a re
cent guest, one wonders if she as
sisted in the gathering of the tea
leaves. When it rains she plays pa
tience, laying the cards before her on
the table in a solitary game. To
play patience and to poke around the
flowers! Even an empress must
thus find her comfort in a lonely old
age.
AUSTRALIA’S SWEET TOOTH.
An estimate by the British board
of trade of the sugar production of
the world for 1906 makes a total of
14,312,716 long tons, of which
7,317,472 tons were cane and 6,995,
244 tons beet, the production of both
kinds advancing practically at the
same rate since 1898. In the produc
tion of cane sugar, British India
had the largest output of 2,223,400
tons, and in beet sugar Germany
ranked first, with an output of
2,362,187 tons. The Australian has
a sweet tooth, for in the consumption
of sugar per head Australia stands
first at 129 pounds, the United
States coming next with 89 pounds
and the United Kingdom following
at 81 pounds.
VAGARIES OF THE PLUMB LINE.
One of the curious things that
men of science have discovered in
their innumerable efforts to measure
and map the earth with the least pos
sible error is the fact that there are
plaoes where the direction of a plumb
line is not vertical. Irregularities of
density in the crust of the globe may
produce this phenomena. A remark
able instance has been found in the
island of Porto Rico, where the devi
ation from the vertical is so great
that, in mapping the island, the
northern and southern coast lines, as
shown on the older maps, had each to
be moved inward half a mile.
BENEFITS PHILADELPHIA.
In 1907 Philadelphia's export and
import trade increased $25,000,000
in value over the figures for the pre
vious year. The total value of the
city’s external trade for that year
was over $150,000,000. These fig
ures account in part for the opening
of the new steamship service be
tween Genoa, Italy, and the City of
Brotherly Love. The Italians want
some of the business.
PEANUT CONSUMPTION.
So many peanuts are eaten in this
country that the native supply is not
sufficient for the demand and about
$5,000 worth of the African nuts
were imported from Marseilles in
1906 smd over $73,000 worth in
1907. The west coast of Africa pro
duces quantities of peanuts.
SUMMER FRIVOLITY.
“What will the program at the
educational convention at Ocean City
embrace ?”
“I don’t know, but if I am con
faulted, I say all the pretty teachers.”
