The wig is only worn by English barristers to give them a stern, judi cial appearance, and no one can say that it falls in this respect The cus tom was originated by a French Judge In the seventeenth century when, hap pening to don a marquis' wig one day, he found it gave him such a stern and dignified appearance that he decided to get one for himself and wear it at all times In court. This he did, and the result wan so satisfactory from a legal point of view that not only the - Judges, but barristers alBO, took up the custom throughout Europe. Lon don Graphic. (1.

The skill of the old Maine shipbuild ers In the use of the adz and broadaz was wonderful. One old time yarn is of a carpenter who applied very drunk at a shipyard for employment. In or der to have a little fun with him the foreman set him to give a proof of his skill by hewing out a wooden bolt witn no chopping block but a stone. The carpenter accomplished his difficult task without marring the keen euge 01 the broadax and showed the foreman a neatly made bolt. Then he brought the ax down with a terrific blow that shattered Its edge upon the stone. "1 can hew fust rate on your chopping block," ho hiccoughed, "but I'll be blamed if I can make the ax stick in It when I git through." The story runs that the foreman lost no time In em ploying such a workman. How to Heal Skin'Diseases A Baltimore doctor suggests this simple, but reliable and Inexpensive, home treatment for people suffering with eczema, ring worm, rashes and similar Itching, burn ing skin troubles. At any reliable druggist's get a Jar of reslnol ointment and a cake of res lnol soap. These are not at all ex- pensive. With the reslnol soap and warm water bathe the affected parta thoroughly, until they are free from crusts and the skin is softened. Dry very gently, spread on a thin layer ol the reslnol ointment, and cover with a light bandage if necessary to pro tect the clothing. This should be done twioe a day. Usually the distressing Itching and burning stop with the first treatment, and the skin soon becomes clear and healthy again, sample tree, Resented.

Washington, D. C. Employers throughout the United States corpor ations, manufacturers, professional men, tradesmen and business men of all classes are to be asked to contrib ute as their share in the national de fense permission for their employe to engage, without serious financial loss, in two months' military training during each of three years. This is an essential part of the ad ministration's plan for raising a citi zen army of 800,000 men in six years, which, with the regular army of 140, 000 men and 300,000 reserves, would give a trained force, exclusive of state militia, of about 1,200,000 in the event of war. The success of the plan, officials ad mit, depends not on the appropriation of congress, for its cost will be com paratively small, but on the patriotic response of employers to whom an ap peal will be made to furlough as many men each year, at different seasons, as they can spare and who wish to join the proposed continental army. : Administration officials are conn dent that, even though It is proposed to enlist only 133,000 men In the year in the continentals, or a total of near ly 800,000 In the first six-year period,, more than that number would be at tracted by the outdoor life of a mili tary camp If they could be assured by their employers that their positions would not be lost and their earnings seriously decreased. The proposed enlistment requires two months' service for each of three years and liability for service during the remaining three years only in event of war. The army plans for more than 1,000, 000 trained men In six years, and the navy' program of ten dreadnoughts and six battle cruisers within five years, both of which will be presented to congress with the indorsement of President Wilson, were the absorbing topics of interest here.

This declaration was made Monday by Brigadier-General Sir Erick Swayne, director of recruiting in the northern command, in a speech at Hull. General Swayne estimated that Ger many still has between 9,000,000 and 10,600,000 men from the ages of 18 to 46, and that, therefore, it was useless to talk about wearing out Germany. In the spring, said he, Germany would lose more men than the allies, which would balance the numbers of the al lies and the central powers, but if Great Britain should raise 3,000,000 ad ditional men, Germany probably would recognise that it would be fruitless to continue. , , Wilson's Yacht Refitted.

The country wheat markets were also quiet Grain farmers in the interior are holding their wheat firmly In antici pation of higher prices. They nave followed this policy for the first two months of the season and are well sat isfied with the results. As most of them are Independent they are not likely to upset values by a general selling movement. As an indication of the way supplies are being held back in the country It Is cited that on the lines of the Spokane & Inland rail way there are now 1,366,678 bags of wheat, against 940,000 bags at this time last year. Broomhall In his weekly Internation al review says: "The general position of the market Is about unchanged with the under tone strong and an advancing tenden cy. "The evidence Is becoming increas ingly plain that the world's supply of wheat will be abundant for the season, and the abnormally large receipts in both the United States and Winnipeg of spring wheat indicate that the per iod of scarcity is about ending and re cent large purchases, In a quiet way, Indicate that a good share of these supplies will eventually reaoh the Uni ted Kingdom.

' . "Safety first" Lessens life loss. Chicago, 111. The Union Paclflo railroad system will be given an ab solutely clean bill on "Passengers Killed" during; the fiscal year ending June 30, 1916, in the report of the In terstate Commerce commission. And the number of passengers Injured, for the same period; will show almost negligible In the commission's report Two years ago the Union Pacific system adopted a motto of "Safety First." Every employe, regardless of his position, was enlisted In the work of making the Union Pacific not only as safe as any other system -in jthe country, but ' absolutely safe for the traveling public as well as lor the employes. The clean bill which the Interstate Commerce commission's report will show is the result of that "safety" campaign. Not one passenger was killed on the entire Union Paciflo system, from end to end, main line and branch lines, during the last fiscal year. In that period 8,951,364 passengers entrusted themselves on the thousands of miles of branch roads of Union Pacific, and upon the main line trains from Omaha to Portland, Seattle and Spokane, from Kansas City to Denver and Chey enne, and not one single passenger lost his life, although, together, these 8,951,364 passengers traveled nearly one billion miles during that year. Not only does this apply to those passen gera actually on board the trains, but it includes those who were preparing to go aboard, or who were leaving the trains of the company. Regardless of whether the blame lay with the rail road, or was due to the grossest, most flagrant carelessness on the part of the passenger, the fact remains that during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1915, not one single Union Pacific passenger was killed. But Union Pacific's "Safety First" campaign la not benefiting passengers alone. Employes are reaping hand some returns on the efforts they are making to prevent accidents to each other, . Germans Execute Woman. London The foreign office has been notified by the American embassy that Miss Edith Cavell, lately the head of a large training school in Brussels, who was arrested August - 5 by the German authorities in Brussels, was executed October 13 after sentence of death had been passed on her.

President Favors Wool Tariff. Washington, D. C. President Wil son is reported by members of con gress who have talked with him as fa voring the placing of some duty on wool not that he believes that wool needs any protection, but that he be lieves a wool tariff will aid in wiping out the deficit in the treasury. It is reported that the President will rec ommend a duty on wool when he asks congress to repeal the free sugar clause of the Underwood act How much duty the President will recom mend is not yet determined. .

THEY ARB MADE FOR BACH OTHER He Saved the Patent Office. When M the war of 1812 the British who had taken Washington, trained their guns upon the patent office Dr. Thornton, throwing himself directly before the guns, cried: "Are you Englishmen or Goths and Vandals? This is the patent office a depository of the ingenuity and inven tions of (he American nation in which the whole civilized world is interested. Would you destroy it? Then let the charge pass through my body." And the building was spared. Twenty-four years afterward, however, it was destroyed by fire, together with everything In It.
