Tho British admiralty has found tho situ ation full of complications. Some \? s-?ls of British registration pro duced hills of lading to show that whiskey cargoes were consigned to ( aliada. lt was suggested that ships carry ing whiskey from tho Bahamas to Canada register their whiskey as "ballast" when they called at United States ports This, however, would Involve duplicity on the part of tho American port oillcials. j?

ESKIMO HAS EAR FOR MUSIC Natives of the Arctic Regions Have Exclusive Right to Their Own Compositions. Knut Rasmussen and Fridtjof Nan sen and also lillirie)) Johannes Bink, who wits soul north years ugo hy Lady Franklin to lind her husband, have given to the world valunhle facts alunit the customs "?ind lives of the Eskimos. Christian Leden's unique contribution from the arctic regions is 111 the Held of music. For years he studied and faithfully tram scribed tho Innuit melodies. Each Eskimo, he says, ls obliged to com pose his own song, and no person may sing the song of another with out first obtaining permission. The mother has her cradle song, Infinitely low and sweet. The hunter lins his song of the chase, clear and bold. Even the bad man of the tribe has his song, and lt was quick nfld ap propriately brazen. Harmony has not been developed among the Eskimos. They sing only In unison. But their melodies are weird and wistful, often consisting of only two or three motives, which are strangely etTeetlve. It ls during tho long polar night that the Eskimo bas time to rest In his Igloo and sing lils songs. British Silver Stamping Explain**. In this country the word ster' ag, when stamped on silver, means sh oly that Mic manufacturer declnres .bo article to be mude of silver eleven twelfths fine; hut the British murks arranged In column, give a sort of his tory of the article. Usually the fir t mark ls thc maker's sign; next comes a mark that shows where the nrtlc'^ was made-for London, a leopard's bend; for Birmingham, nn anchor; and for Sheffield, famous for its silver, n crown. Dublin lins the Trish harp, anti Chester uses the city arms. The third murk, a lion, Ind?cales thc stan dard of fineness. The date mark, a letter, usually comes last. Since each city uses a different system for In dicating the year when the article was made, it ls necessary to know the "plate" of thy town In order to find the date of a particular piece.

An official statement from Forman j University says that tho scientific courses this autumn will he only very slightly Interrupted, in tho chemistry courses all theoretical work will go forward as usual, Laboratory work will be intensified during the winter and spring terms, so that the end of tho session will find the students to have lost nothing as a result of the slight interruption caused by reason of the fire. The physics department of the sci ence hall was not seriously damaged* hy tho tire. Consequently this work ; will go forward with tho opening of , the college this autumn.

Probably no saying of Horace Gree ley, the beacon light <>f inuit iludes of three-quarters of a century ago, was more widely.read? more generally fol lowed, or longer remembered than his continually ?reiterated exhortation, "Young man, go West!" That, says the San Francisco Chron icle, was a satisfactory way of re lieving what was then thought con gestion of population in eastern com munities, but lt no longer answers thc purpose. Today the place for the en terprising young man to look for ls In some undeveloped foreign country. It will he a new thought to most of us that the time has come when we must consider emigration as well aS Immi gration-that there are lands of oppor tunity other than our own. ' This was emphasized recently by Frank D. Waterman, a name well known to those who do not habitually use a typewriter, with special refer ence to the centenary celebration which begins at Rio Janeiro, Brazil, next September. It has become a ne cessity with us, ns it lins long been with overpopulated Europe, to seek outlets In foreign countries for the sur plus products of our workers. The one way to do lt ls by commercial mls slonnrles going to foreign countries while still forming their minds and staying there. That ls the way Europe j hus built up trade In undeveloped . countries. That ls the way we must ' adopt if we expect to successfully com pete with those countries. State Very Short on Coal.

"Hullo, lliu?cl Saving up to get tour ried V*1 Old Henry Dobson, who bad boon one of tile bookkeepers of tli6 Friend Company for nearly a scoro of years, looked up sheepishly and thrust away the bills be was counting. "Detter burry up; not much time to loso, Hank !" ; Henry Dobson must have been fifty, und why he bad been so long with tito company und still retained a subordi nate position was not difficult to see. Honest, plodding, industrious, he had not the qualities that make for sue* cess. An oldorly-looklng mun, unob trusive, he went his wuy, tho butt of mild witticisms on tho part of tho younger men. No one knew anything about old Henry, nor where bo lived, oud nobody | cared. Thu samo applied equally to Miss Howell, of tho correspondence depart went. Miss Bowell had oecn there nine years, and looked Just a plain, pale, rather faded old maid. "Say, Miss Bowell, Hank Dobson reckons lie's going to got married 1" Sadie, the telephone girl, said this, and waited for the quick blush to ap pear on Miss Bowell's face. "Is be, really ? Oh, Isn't that idee I" "Say," said Sadie to her friend, Agnes Strutt, "wouldn't it be u Julio to make Amy Bowell think Hank Dob son's lu luve wltli her?" "And to make him think she's in love with him 1" ..llow'll we do lt?" "Watch incl" said Sadie cryptically. On the following morning Miss Bow* ell found a neat little bunch of violets on lier desk, with a scrap of pasteboard attached, bearing In writing tho words, "With H. D.'s compliments." Uer agitation appeared plain. Tho girls, watching ber, had many quiet giggles as they saw her surreptitiously bend to sniff the fragrance of tho Howers. "Say, Hank, that's u One bunch of Howers you sent Miss Rowell." "I didn't send her any Howers. What'd I want to send her flowers for?" protested Henry Dobson. "Well, don't you let on yoij didn't. She's coming to thunk you." Little Miss Rowell stopped at Henry Dobson's desk. "Thank you so much for your beautiful dowers, Mr. Dob son," shu said In a quiet voice. A few days later Henry Dobson found a pair of socks on Ills desk, hearing a card, "With kind remem brances from A. lt." Examination dis closed the fact that the heels \verc? gone. "Say, Miss Rowell, Mr. Dobson's had such a lovely pair of socks from sumo one," sahl yuille. Little Miss Rowell raised her hoad Inquiringly. "Who sent them?" She asked. "Oh, Miss Rowell I Oh, Mles Row ell 1" they teased bel, It was funny to soe how nervously Miss Rowell avoided Henry Dubson's dusk for several days thereafter. Tho-cream of the Joke came n few days later. Miss Rowell opened a little cardboard box. Inside was a ten-years-old valentine, procured from some old dealer who had had lt rot ting on his shelf since tho dnys'when valentines remained In fashion. The lace paper edge was torn and mil dewed. Tho picture represented an elderly spinster with a long, red nose, and underneath was printed : I think you'ro out for marriage, Aa all tho world can eeo. I hopo you'll lind a man to your mind, Aa long as lt Isn't me. Tho sender had scratched out the last word and substituted "H. D." j Miss Rowell's right hand Jerked con , vulslvoly. Tho valentino, torn In half, ' dropped Into tho wastebasket. Twelve struck. Hank Dobson came slowly Into the correspondence depart ment as the girls were getting ca their hats. Miss Rowell rose up, smiling. "Oh, Sadie, you know I'm not com ing back on Monday?" she asked. "Not coining back, Miss Rowell?" There was genuine regret. Then, Im pulsively: "Oh, Miss Rotvell, If lt's because we've bothered you sa much, won't you overlook it? I-Vnr really ashamed." "My dear, you haven't bothered ino at nil," Miss Rowell smiled. "But my husband und I are starting a little poul try farm-the dream of our lives-?" "Ob, Miss Rowell I I mean-why, Miss Rowell, you and Mr. Dobson have got married 1" "Ten years ago, my dear," smiled Amy Rowell. The First Wallpaper In America. Wall papers did not begin to como Into this country until tho second quarter of the Eighteenth century.
