BRAZIL CHERISHES
MEMORY OF EMPIRE
Ashes of Royalty Brought Bark
From Europo Republicans Anionic
Most Sympathetic Mourners.
By U. Grant Keener
(United rim Suit Correspondent.)
RIO DE JANEIRO, Feb. 13. Al
though Brasil has been a republic for
many years and men of humbler
birth now fill many of her, most im
portant public offices, the activities
of the old court are yet fresh In pop
ular memorjr.
. Less than two years ago the Bra
zilians repatriated the ashes of Dom
Pedro II and his wife, Empress
Theresa Christina, restoring them to
a throne of memory. Dom Pedro
had been compelled to leave the
country by the rebellion which cul
minated in the Brazilian Republic.
With Dom Pedro, his empress
wife, and his daughter. Princess Isa
bel, were also obliged to leave and
went to Portugal never to return
alive to their native country.
Princess Isabel, known as "the Re
dempteress," having signed a decree
freeing slaves In Brazil while she
was acting regent during a visit of
her father to Europe', died recently
in France. The staunchest Republi
cans were among the most sympath
etic mourners over her loss.

There is nothing spectacular about
the lumber market at present. Or
ders are slowly Increasing, but to
date production and order practic
ally balance. There la a striking dif
ference In the situation of this year
and that of last year, however. At
present lumber prices are firm with
very little "distress stock" offered,
according to the American Lumber.
"In 1921, however," The Lumberman
says, "prices were receding at this
time and production was upon a
very scanty basis. In fact, for the
first six weeks of 1922 orders and
production, as a whole, are almost
twice as large as for the first six
weeks of 1921. It Is not difficult to
understand therefore why the mar
ket is firm and bids fair to remain
In this condition.
"In the south winter storms have
played a considerable part in hold
ing down production. On the Paci
fic coast while there is still some
log shortage, the situation Is rectify
ing itself. An important phase of
the situation on the west coast, how
ever, is the continued heary move
ment of lumber by water. to Califor
nia and Atlantic coast ports as well
as abroad. For example, during
the last week for which figures are
available 47 per cent of new busi
ness booked was for future water
delivery."
HOW TO DETERMINE
DEPRECIATION TOLD
Average Lifetime of Frame Building
25 Years, According To Income
Tax Collection Data.
PORTLAND. Feb. 13. To com
pute the amount of depreciation
which may be claimed in making out
income tax returns, reports Clyde G.
Huntley, collector of internal reven
ue, the taxpayer should determine
the probable life of the property.
then divide by the number of years
It will be usable in the business in
which employed.
The result thus obtained will rep
resent the amount which may be
claimed as a deduction.
For example, a frame building,
the probable lifetime of which is 25
years, cost $5,000. Divide $5,000
by 25 and claim $200 each year as
a deduction. While each taxpayer
may determine the probable lifetimo
of his property without regard to
the following figures, it has been es
timated that the average usable life
time of a frame building is 25 years;
a brick building 50 to 100 years.
The estimated life of ordinary ma
chinery, that of automobiles used
for business or farm purposes and
farm tractors is four to five years.

HOW CHARCOAL IS MADE
Method of Burning la Much the
Same, No Matter Where the
Process Is Carried On.
The usual method of making or
"burning" chnrcoal Is to build up a
cone-shaped pile of wood, nhout twelve
feet in height and ten to forty feet in
diameter leaving a centrul hole or
chimney; then to burn It from above
downward, and from the outside In
wnrd. The trees are cut down In
winter and should be fairly dry. The
wood Is built up with the bark out
ward, the largest pieces being placed
furthest Inside, and a covering of
turf, or of chnrcoal dust and soil, Is
placed over the whole, leaving holes
at the sides of the bottom for air.
The first three or four dnys bring out
the moisture onto the cover. The
openings around the base ore then
covered, nnd holes are made about
halfway up. When the smoke ceases
to Issue from these, they are closed
nnd other holes are mnde'below. Tar
products, which collect when the
charconl Is nenrly burned, are re
moved by menns of pipes or gutters.
When the nir-holes cease to omit
flame nnd smoke they are covered
and the pile Is allowed to cool for
two or three dnys. Then the charconl
Is "drawn." nnd nny pieces still burn
ing are quenched with water or sand.
Seem Larger Near Horizon.
The United States naval observatory
says: "The sun and moon seem Inrger
near the horizon because of an optical
Illusion. The horizon appears to be
more distant than the zenith because
the eye. In looking toward the horizon,
rests npon many objects by the way.
The sun or moon near the horizon and
nt the zenith Is seen to be the same
object In both positions; but when
near the horizon, It seems lurger
because the distance Is apparently
greater, the mind unconsciously reason'
Ing that being so much farther away,
the sun or moon must be larger In
order to look the same.
"The moon ot the horizon is really
about 4,000 miles more distant from
the observer than when nearly over
head: nnd Its apparent diameter, as
measured by an astronomical . In
strument, is actually less by about one
sixtieth." Old Friends.
The bride's mother had her doubts
about the feasibility of letting Pickle,
the South Carolina cook, wait on the
door during the arrival of wedding
guests. True, she made the best sweet
potato pies ever, but she knew so
little of formal northern customs. How
ever, there seemed no alternative.
Pickle ushered the guests quite solemn
ly and wordlessly In. However, near
the Inst there came a family friend
who was a frequent visitor. On open
ing the door nnd seeing of all the
throng the first familiar face Pickle
broke Into a loud paean of welcome.
"Come right In, Missus Brown, Ah

TOOK SENTIMENT TO HEART
Father of Dead Maori Youth Found
Comfort In Maeterlinck's Really
Beautiful Contention.
A piillictle story of n Maori father
conies from the pen of Mr. Itex Hunter,
who was burn and grew up among
them. In Asia, he writes:
When I went riding, Kuril, who did
odd Join round the place nnd wli
rode u pony that lie culled Polo, cuiue
ujong 'us a sort of uticudunt. But hia
uttiliiile was different from (hut of an
English groom ; Instead of dubbing me
"Mr." or "Sir," ho always culled inu by
my llrst mime.
While I was sojourning In the South
sens, during an absence from New
Zealand, n letter from my sister In
formed me of Koru's death. Ho had
contracted smallpox. In replying I
referred to Maeterlinck's contention
Unit the ili'iid are never actually dead
so- long as the living remember theiu.
In simple words my sister told that part
of my letter to lien, I ho father of the
dead boy, and the thought seemed to
Impress him deeply. In her next letter
my sister wrote:
"Yesterday I went with Hen to put
llowers on Koru's grave. Hen talked
ns If the boy could hear him. He
said, 'Well, Korti, hero we are cmiic to
see you. Wo no forget you. You no
dead while we remember you, Koru.
Polo, the pony.'ls all right and wonder
where you aro. Every little while we
come to sec you'. And then ns we left
he said, 'lioo'-hy, Koru. You no dead
whllu we remember.' " Youth's Companion.
The London Cockney.
Al used by writers of the Eliza
bethan period, the word "cockney"
meant n mollycoddle, or a child that
had been coddled too much by Its
mother. Then, because men who lived
In flie city were supposed to be less
virile nnd strong than those who lived
In tlie country, the rural population
began to apply tho term to the resi
dents of Loudon and other cities.
Gradually this meaning was restrict
ed and localized until It una under
stood asjjclng applicable only to Lon
doners. The opposite term the one
applied by townsmen to the farmer
was "clown," meaning ail uncouth.
Ill-bred man.
Todny the nnme of cockney Is np
plled to Londoners generally, but more
particularly lo people of a certain
class. The Loudon cockney niny not
always bo well educated or rellned lo
bis speech, but he Is not n mollycoddle.
Dry Rot.
The term dry rot Is commonly used
to describe a condition of decay In
wood. I'robably nine out of ten per
sons who use the term have no real
knowledge of Its slgnlllcmice. . In the
llrst plueo, where there Is decay, there
must bo moisture. This typo of decay
Is really tho work of a certain fungus.
It Is true (hut where this fungus grows
the decaying timber nppenrs to be
without moisture. The fungus, how
ever, will not germinate unless the
wood Is moist, but from then on It Is
able to travel In dry wood. It draws
its moisture through a conduit system
of slender, minutely porous strands.
It Is a curious fact, nuyi Science Sitt
ings, that wood kept sulllcleutly wet
cannot rot.
Strange Trade.
A colony of women nt Iinckney, ohe
of the poor districts of London, Kng
Innd, has a peculiar way of earning
money. They "mend" nutmegs Hint
Is to say. they till up the holes In
worm-eaten nnd duuinged nut megs
from spice warehouses. This work Is
done nt home, the worm holes being
filled with a mixture of mil meg dust
and gum muda Into n paste; and the
poor women for doing this ure paid
at the rate of four cents per gross of
nutmegs. It may here lie said that
even close examination on the part of
a casual purchaser could not detect
w here the boles hud been. -,

Never Qlve Up Trying.
The fact of your being alive Is what
gives you the right to continue trying;
age Is only one fuctor; achievement bus
many factors. Thought Is a force;
hopes are things; dreams do come true;
and to the ambitious results are pos
sible so long as life continues. This Is
