Not a Fair Test
Ever since they came to school that
morning two of the boys had been
persistently naughty. At last, there
fore, the teacher, now thoroughly ex
asperated, turned to them angrily, and
said that they must stay In during
playtime until each had written hia
name 1000 times.
Playtime duly came, and, as the rest
of the class rose and hastened from
the room to enjoy a spell of freedom,
the two miscreants settled down to
their Irksome Imposition.
Five minutes later the teacher re
turned to see how they were getting
on, and found a heated argument In
progress.
"Come, come," she asked. "What's
the matter now?"
Whereupon one of the boys burst
Into tears.
"'Taint fair, mum!" he gasped.

DENTAL HEADQUARTERS
HAT the European war has dis
turbed the economic and com
mercial situation In practically
every civilized country In the
world Is a fact well known to
everyone at all conversant with
International trade conditions. Natu
rally the republics of the western
hemisphere are no exception. Every
one of them has felt the disastrous ef
fects, but not In equal nor even In
proportionately equal measure. Nearly
all of them have experienced a large
diminution in their export trade, and
consequently a decrease in purchasing
power and a resultant diminution In
their imports. One remarkable ex
ception Is the Dominican Republic,
says the Bulletin of the Pan-American
union.! That little country enjoys the
distinction of having sold more of
its products, In point of value, to the
outside world during the year 1914
than It did during 1913. The in
creased value of Its exports was only
9118,840, but that It should have in
creased its sales at all Is an astound
ing fact. Its purchases from other na
tions during the year were consider
ably less, but the net result is that
the country has made a material
financial gain.
The Dominican Republic is one of
the smallest of the American repub
lies, with an area of about 19,325
square miles. This is nearly equal
to fho combined areas of New Hamp
shire and Vermont. It has a popula
tion of between six and seven hundred
thousand inhabitants. Haiti Is the
adjoining republic and the two to
gether comprise the Island called by
the first Spanish discoverers "Isla Es-
panola" and now sometimes called
"Santo Domingo" and sometimes
Haiti." Within the limits of what is
now the territory oi tne uominican
Republic was located by Columbus the
first settlement of Europeans loathe
new world. This settlement was
called "Isabella," after the queen of
Castile, the friend and patroness of
Columbus. The first Spanish settle
ment, like Jamestown, the first Eng
lish settlement no longer exists ex
cept as a ruin. In fact, "Isabella"
disappeared a few years after its
foundation. The modorn city of Puer
to Plata Is located near the former site
of the old settlement. The oldest ex
isting settlement of Europeans in the
western world Is likewise located in
the Dominican Republic. This is the
capital city, Santo Domingo.
One of World's Richest Spots.
The Dominican Republic, in fact
the whole island, Is naturally one of
the richest spots In the world. The
soil Is remarkably fertile ana . pro
duces luxuriously. On the north
coast, in the province of Monte Crlsti
near the Haitian border, the soil
well adapted for cotton raising, and
there is a very considerable acreage
devoted to this industry, backed by
American and English capitalists. The
cotton Is of a fine quality, and the
yield per acre is much greater than
that in our southern states.
Puerto Plata, an important port of
the north, is a town of some 10,000 or
12,000 inhabitants, connected by a
railway, running south, with the
towns of the fertile Calbo region-
Santiago de los Caballeros, La Vega,
and Moca. These towns are located
in the great agricultural regions of
the republic, where the famous cacao
bean is cultivated. Tobacco also Is
grown, to a considerable extent, and
has had until recently a ready market
in Hamburg. "Other ports of impor
tance are Samana and Sanchez, In the
FOR OUT-Of-TOWN PEOPLE beautiful Samana bay. This bay is
. rrole from all Darts of Ittmuua im ivo "u
scenery. It is aDout 25 miles tong ny
S miles wide, with a depth of
water sufficient to float the largest bat
tleships. Our North Atlantic squad
ron has frequently gone there for ma
neuvers. At the entrance to the
bay is the town of Samana, and at the
head Is Sanchez, connected with the
interior by the Sanchez & Moca rail
way, a Scotch enterprise, for a dis
tance of 40 miles.
San, Pedro de Macorls is the sugar
oort of the republic. In and around
Macorls there are thousands of
acres ; of land devoted to the raising
of sugar cane, and millions of dollars
of American capital are Invested In
this enterprise. The plantations are
all equipped with the most modern
machinery, and the cane Is cultivated
and gathered by colored laborers from
the English and Danish West Indies.
Relict In the Capital.
Seventy miles from La Romana and
40 miles from Macorls Is Santo Do
mingo City, the capital of the repub
lic. In Santo Domingo we find our
selves In the midst of modern civiliza
tion, surrounded by innumerable relics
that carry us back to the fifteenth
century. Here can be seen the ruins
of the first church, San Nicolas,
built some time in the early part of
1500, and three or four years ago the
mahoKanv taken from these ruins
was in a perfect state of preservation.
Here, as claimed by the Dominicans,
can be seen the bones of Christopher
Columbus, left by mistake by the
Spaniards when they evacuated the
Island, and who removed from the
crypt In the cathedral to Havana the
remains of a brother of Columbus,
thinking they were taking the bones
of the irreat discoverer.
The ruins of the house of Diego co-
lon, the son of Christopher, are
still standing, where, according to
history, a court was established
whose entertainments rivaled in
splendor those w read of in the
Arabian Nights. On the bank of the
river still stands the massive ceiba
tree to which were tied the caravels
of Columbus. In Santo Domingo City
Columbus was put in chains and sent
home to Spain a prisoner In disgrace.
The city is built on the west bank
of the Ozama river and Is under the
administration of the department of
public works. A magnificent macadam
boulevard, bordered on either side
with native elms, interspersed with
tropical foliage, extends from the cen
ter of the city for 20 miles in the di
rection of Banl, the birthplace of the
famous Cuban hero, Maximo Gomez.
On this same boulevard can be "seen
the well-preserved ruins of the Fort
San Geronimo, which In early days
withstood an attack of the English
under Drake. The entrance from the
town to this boulevard Is through an
arch constructed by the government
in memory of those who fell fighting
for the Independence of the country,
and the arch bears the Inscription
Dulce et Decorum est pro Patrla
Mori."
Life at the capital, while not as fast
and eav as at the larger cities of
the South, Is still very agreeable.
There are two well-equipped and con
ducted clubs, Club Union and Casino
de la Juventud, where there are fre
quent social entertainments. Auto
mobiles are plentiful and tho ride
from the capital to San Cristobal
along the new macadam boulevard is
most attractive. Automobiles can be
procured for $4 an hour. There are
several hotels In the city, of which
the Hotel Francis is the best known.
There is quite a large foreign colony
at the capital and In Macorls and
Puerto Plata. The whole trip from
New York, including a stop at all
ports. Is about eight or nine days,
A very erroneous impression pre
vails that the climate of Santo Do
mingo is unhealthy. From Its geo
graphical position it cannot be un
healthy. The winds have a clean
sweep across the island, and there has
been no serious epidemic there since
the cholera outbreak some time in the
early sixties.

"that of all the people who come to

WHERE REAL TROUBLE BEGAN
Argument Between Hogan, Casey and

Until Stranger Butted In.
When a man Just naturally wants
trouble It Is mighty easy to find an
excuse for making it. According to
Mike Hogan, Casey and O'Brien were
having an argument of their own.
It had progressed to the extent that
each had forgotten what it was about
originally, and they were wholly ob
livious of the gathering crowd until
an urbane and genteel person In a
frock coat put in,
"Come, come, my man," he said,
gently plucking Casey by the sleeve.
