That far southern state of the war-ridden republic also sup plies most of the raw chicle for the manufacture of chewing gum, writes w. D. Hornaday in Grit. These are the two principal reasons why the re cent blockading of the nort of Pro- rjreso by a Carranza war vessel cre ated such a stir in certain industrial slrcles of the United States. During the last twentv-flve vears the growing and exportation of sisal (lber, which Is obtained from the leaves of the henequln plant, have brought enormous wealth to Yucatan, it is said that Merlda is the home of more multimillionaires than any city 3f its size in the world. These men of wealth all made their fortunes out Df the sisal industry. Up to the beginning of the present revolutionary period in Mexico and dating back more than a decade Meri- aa was the real money center of Mex ico. A veritable stream of gold con stantly flowed out of the local banks through the channels of trade to oth er parts of country and even into the larger financial centers of the United States and Europe. The annual rev enue which the Yucatan planters ob tained from their sisal product ranged from 120,000,000 to $40,000,000. These men have continued to reap large profits from the Industry all through the war disturbances as the exporta tion of the fiber was not interfered with by the different contending po litical elements until recently. There is at presont an unusually large Btock of fiber on hand awaiting exDort. Most of it has been already purchased by an American company that manu factures binder twine on an extensive scale. The Outgoing shipments of the product will now be made as rapidly as ships can take it out of Progreso, which is the deepwater port of Yuca tan. Most Progressive Part of Mexico. The henequln planters have been made to contribute several mill Inn dollars to the different revolutionary factions during the last few years, but the levying of this tribute has been no burden to them. On the whole, the Btate has probably been more prosper ous in the face of the revolutions than any other part of Mexico. This was due in part to its isolation from the remainder of the republic. It has no railroad connections with the other states, with the exception of Cam peche. The United Railways of Yuca tan has a line that runs to the town of Campeche. Just before Diaz re signed from the presidency the fed eral government granted a concession to a foreign syndicate for the con struction of a railroad from Campeche to a connection with the National Tehuantepeo railroad, a distance of about 450 miles. The surveys for the proposed line were being made when the Madero revolt caused a stop to the work. What is now the territory of Quln tana Roo was formerly a part of Yuca tan. It was created about fifteen years ago and placed under military rule in order to better cope with the rebellious Maya Indians. These In dians are degenerated remnants of a Gambling With Flies. We question whether the fly Is a nuisance. During one of his moun taineering expeditions in Switzerland, Sir Leslie Stephens discovered that the fly could be made to play an un conscious part in a gambling game. "Last night," he says in -a letter writ ten to his wife from Zermatt on Sep tember 16, 1870, "six of un got to play ing fly-loo. This means that every one puts down a lump of sugar and a ten-centime piece in front cf him; and the one on whose sugar the first fly settles gets the money." London Chronicle. The Unappreciated Drummer. "There are traveling Americans who have never seen the inside of the hotel that depends upon com mercial men to keep it going.

The ruins of the former civilization are scattered through the dense trop ical forests of Qulntana Roo, Yucatan and Campeche. They consist of large cities, monuments, temples and a va rlety of other interesting works of a race that Is now almost extinct The Mayas have never submitted to Span Ish or Mexican rule. Their warriors are still carrying on a guerilla fight against the Mexican settlers who have encroached upon their inhabited do main. Besides the sisal fiber and chicle gum that are obtained In Yucatan and Qulntana Roo, the tropical forests are the source of a large supply of mahog any timber that is exported to the United States and Europe. On ac count of the unsettled condition of af fairs most of the mahogany logging camps have been temporarily aban doned and very little of that timber has been exported for several months, Always Friendly to Americans. The people of Yucatan have always been friendly to Americans. They have a great admiration for the United States. In fact, this liking was so great that the government authorities there about 1848 during the war be tween Mexico and the United States, made a formal offer that Yucatan be taken over by the latter country. This offer was refused by the govern ment at Washington. Bordering the then state of Yucatan on the south was British Honduras. When the pro posed annexation to the United States was refused a proposition was made to the British government that it take over the state and add it to Brit ish Honduras. This plan also met with failure. Politically speaking, the people of Yucatan have never been in sympathy with that part of Mexico which lies to the north of the Isthmus of Teh u ante pec. Even during the long reign of President Diaz there was at all times a strong undercurrent of ill-feeling to wards the federal administration on the part of the people there. It was the existence of the opposition that : Si caused Diaz to adopt conciliatory tac tics in his appointments to office and general administration. To Amuse the Children.

One of the prettiest illustrated cata logs issued by the business colleges of the Northwest is the one published by the Behnke-Walker Business College of Portland, Oregon. The college was started a little over 13 years ago and has an average annual attendance of about a thousand students. I. M. Walker, who is head of the school, was one of the founders of the institution. It has been and is the ambition of President Walker to employ nothing but the best instructors in each and every department. The school stands high in the estimation of business firms throughout the Northwest. Adv. Poor Grandpa. "Pa, did you ever run away when you were a boy?" "No, never." "Did you always go to Sunday school?" "I never missed a Sunday." "Did you ever do what your parents told you not to do?" "I am glad to say that I never did." "Didn't you ever make a fuss when you had to take a bath?" "I should say not. . I always took my batns without complaining. I liked it." "Didn't it ever make you mad to be called in to do something for your mother when you would rather stay out and play with the other boys?" "It always gave me the keen est pleasure to do things for my mother, no matter whether I had to stop playing or not." "And did you always speak respectfully to your par ents?" "Always. That was one of the first things I ever learned to do." "Gee, what a liar grandpa is." Roch ester Post-Express. What to Do for Itching Skins Eczema, ringworm and other itch ing, burning skin eruptions are so eas ily made worse by improper treat ment, that one has to be very careful. There is one method however, that you need not hesitate to use even on a baby's tender skin that is, the reslnol treat ment. Resinol is the prescription of a Baltimore doctor, Is put up in the form of resinol ointment and resinol soap. This proved so remarkably successful, that thousands of other physicians have prescribed it constantly for 20 years. Reslnol stops Itching Instantly, and almost always heals the eruption quickly and at little cost. Resinol ointment and resinol soap can be bought at any druggist's, and are not at all expensive. Grape Juice Reign Ends. The reign of grape juice at state department dinners will end tonight, when Secretary Lansing will entertain Senor Cardoso, the Brazilian minister to Mexico.

Secretary of State Lansing's return to the usual custom will be highly welcome to most of the diplomatic body, but not to them entirely. Wash ington (D. C.) Times. The Wherefore.

Who Is the putron goddess of the long, lustrously beautiful hair? Or Is there a putron saint that presides ovor "womun's crowning glory"?

Burma has charity hospitals under the management of British people, but the natives do not take kindly to their treatment. There are a lim ited number of native woman phy sicians in Burma, but their skill is not yet sufficient to obtain publio confi dence. The situation has consequent ly created a strong demand In Burma for Japanese doctors, especially fe male medical practitioners. A Chi nese millionaire manufacturer, Liu Chentsung, is one of those who favor the Japanese female doctors, and en gaged two women, each at a salary of $100. Miss Matsuno Yoda and Miss Sakaye Kwano were chosen. It is de cided that they will leave Tokyo for their posts shortly. The two ladles are to work in Rangoon among a group of native women, who belong to the factory of Mr. Liu. It Is the in tention of Mr. Liu upon the arrival of these women to establish a hos pital.

Interesting results obtained by the government chemist by making analy ses of old wax impressions on docu ments in the public record office are described by Alnsworth Mitchell In Knowledge. The seals examined dat ed from the thirteenth to the eigh teenth century and differed but little from modern sealing wax. Most of them consisted of a mixture of bees wax and resin, others of pure bees wax. Two seals, of the dates 1399 and 1423, respectively, were composed of wax, the characteristics of which agreed more nearly with those of East Indian than of European beeswax. The wax composing an impression from the great seal of 1360 agreed, in chem ical and physical characters, with pure beeswax of today. The pigment in the red seals was vermilion, while the green seals contained verdigris, Rubber Ousting Tobacco. Strange are the capers of competi tion! As far away as British North Borneo the rubber estates are gradual ly forcing tobacco growing to the wall. Our consul at Sandukan says that only a few tobacco estates are now remain ing, but that no less than twenty rub ber eBtates, averaging 26,360 acres each and a capital of $11,970,000, are under cultivation, and 19 of them are producing rubber. Within three years more all estates will be exporting crude rubber and in five years all trees now set out will be ready for tapping. In 1914, 1,373,000 pounds of cultivated rubber was produced. Lack of regu lar rainfall makes against tobacco. Cocoanut growing competes with both and is setting limits to the expansion of rubber productions. Wall Street Journal. NOVEL PATRON 5 Lavi'': Hid I.

Business College PORTLAND, OREGON Rural Credits Again. Getting the money back on to the farm is a Job much discussed at vari ous conventions these days; but there are one or two points that seem worth stating: Rural credits is a problem of' development, not of charity. We have no downtrodden peasantry In this country, and the legal rate of Interest has somewhat restricted the mortgage sharks. Getting completely rid of these fellows Is important, but It is much more Important to secure In all parts of our country the best possible Investment and use of agri cultural capital. This should not be done by the privilege method, by state aid, tax exemption, and so on. If the American farmer can't pay his way, nobody can. The real need is better organization of the farming business by means of rural cooperative banks, which will not only do the banking for their members, but will also give them the benefits of centralized buy ing and selling. The banking will be based on the actual known values of the neighborhood, and the trading op erations will be real and not specu lative. Along with individual zeal and skill in farming will go a cooperative use of the farmers' business strength. Rural credits must be taken up as a part of this larger problem of agricul tural business organization. Collier's Weekly. Pay More? He Was Learned There.
