" New York Samuel Hale Pearson, one of the most important financial men in the world and the greatest cap italist of South Ameirca, is in this country as the representative of the Argentine Republic at the Interna tional Congress of Finance, which is being held at Washington. Mr. Pearson gained an extensive commercial experience in his travels and in 1890 he joined the banking firm of Samuel B. Hale & Co., Buenos Ayres, which was founded by his grandfather in 1832.

Mr. Pearson has direct control over billions of dollars invested in South America and has recently been ap pointed director of tha Bank of the Argentine Republic, by the President and Senate. Mr. Pearson is related by marriage to some of the wealthiest and most in telligent families of South America.

Wheat fell from a range of $1.15 to $1.18 down to $1 and $1.05. Oats dropped from $1.40 to $1.30, while barley in ton lots went from $25 and $26 to $24. Farmers paid little heed to the prices, but it is expected that holders will wait for the reaction from the big drop and then sell. Local mill men say the bump is due to there be ing practically no shipping this month and because manipulators outside have let prices drift after May deliveries. Klamath County Exporting Pork.

HOLD QUEER BELIEFS SUPERSTITIONS OF THE NATIVES OF INDIA. Toad Soup as a Cure for Insanity Is On of Them Caste Question Al waya of Profound Impor tance. Hidden among the pages of statis tics and maps in the 1911 general re port on the census ot India are some quaint stories of Indian beliefs and superstitions. Mr. O'Malley, who su perintended the census taking In Ben gal, Bihar and Orissa, tells us that the lower classes think that insanity is duo to excess ot bile in the system or to worms in the head. "Neglect of the worship ot the gods, or the curse of Yogi Sadhu or other holy maa may produce it Madness being due to possession by aa evil spirit, every attempt is made to ap pease or exorcise it The exorcists hold smoking chllies to the nostrils of the patient and chant mantras, ad dressing the spirit in obscene lan guage, all with the idea of driving it away. When these means prove futile they prescribe a diet calculated to force the spirit to leave his victim in fear of losing his caste. The unfortu nate patient, has therefore to consume soup made of toads, etc When these abominable nostrums fail the use of medicated oils and of indigenous herbs and drugs is resorted to." The medical treatment of the insane sometimes takes the following forms: "The mud taken from putrid tanks is plastered on the patient's head, or aloe pulp is mixed with water and ap plied in the form of an emulsion. A favorite remedy is soup made from a particular kind of frog." Again, the caste question Is one which is of particular Importance in many of the Eastern provinces, and it is told how one chief excommunicated the recalcitrants in one highly organ ized caste which had been split into two hostile camps, and so effectual and binding was this order that not only did the barbers, washermen and priests of the state, who had hitherto served them, refuse to work for them, but the services could not be ob tained even of barbers, washermen and priests residing outside the state. This order was strictly enforced for some time. The men ot this caste are clean-Bhaven and very well groomed and dressed, but when the dispute was eventually settled the per sons affected by the order had long, dirt-matted beards, the hair of their heads was in long strands and filthy In the extreme, and their clothes were beyond description for uncleanllness. Seeking a Husbsnd. Nat E. Harris, recently elected gov ernor of Georgia, merrily smiled the other evening when the conversa tion in the lobby of a hotel turned to the subject of benedicts. He said he was reminded of a little incident Some time ago a pretty young wom an entered a moving picture theater and took a seat well toward the front Finally the lights were turned on, re vealing a young married couple with whom she was acquainted sitting be side her. "Why, Clara!" exclaimed the young married woman, noticing that the other was unattended. "What in the world are you doing here?" "I am looking for a husband, dear," was the qqlet response ot Clara. "Looking for a husband!" returned the married woman, wonderingly. "Why, you have a husband!" "Yes, I know," was the Bighful re Joinder of the late comer. "That's the one I'm looking for." Philadelphia Telegraph. China Needs Weather Bureau. The need of a weather bureau in China Is emphasized by C. D. Jameson In his report to the American Red Cross on the measures which his per sonal observations In China indicate should be adopted to ameliorate the flood and famine conditions of that country. There are at present practi cally no rainfall statistics for the river basins most subject to floods, much less any organization for flood predic tion. Torrential rains sometimes oo cur in this region. In June, 1910, a local downpour in the vicinity of Szechow, lasting some 42 hours, is es timated to have amounted to 24 Inches. The unofficial meteorological service ot Zlkawel observatory, extending along the coast and up the Yangtse valley is the nearest approach to a national weather bureau yet existing in China. Scientific American. Temperature and Conductabillty. It has been known that some mate rials are better conductors of elec tricity than others, and now Professor Kamerllngh-Onnes ot Leyden has dis covered that at certain very low tem peratures many metals which are con ductors of electricity lose every trace of resistance to the current and be come what be calls "superconductors." Tho finest wires of tin and lead do not become heated under the highest cur rents. It is strange that when tho critical temperature Is lowered even slightly the superconductivity ceases and the metal behaves aa at other low temperatures. Wasted Weather. "Remarkable weather we're having," said the man who tries to be conver sational "Yes," replied the man who is ever gloomy; "but with no baseball nor circus nor election In town I dont tee what's tha use ot it" .

I was not able to go to bed, but spent my time on a couch or in a sleeping-chair, and soon became almost a skeleton. Finally my doctor went away for his health, and my husband heard of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable) Compound and got me some. In two months I got relief and now I am like a new woman and am at my usual weight. I recommend your medicine to every one and so does my husband."
