Making a Newspaper A newspaper printed solely to please those who think that a murder in the community, nhout which nearly everyone Is excited ly commenting, should rot be conspicuously told would not run far or Ioiir. A newspaper to be a newspaper in reality must tell of murders, divorces, scandals magnata, prize flRhts and speak easy rnids, because they nrc nil a part of the quivering news of the day. It would be a delightful Iftopl ap condition of society If no one cared to know that a , murder hHd been committed, and how, nnd who was tho victim. It would bo almost heavenly if persons In high social life would never thrust their scandalous episodes upon the public air. And doubtless i the moral atmosphere would be sweet er and more prudish If, actresses i on the screen or tho stage would villainies tho salient staples of their news pagcH. They preservo a sane balance between what is "fit to print" and those stories of crime that will necessarily break Into the news of the day. Yellow and dirty journalism In as much anathema to tho taund ard publishers of America as It Is to tho most delicate-minded of tho reading public. Happily the groat rank and f f to of our news papers have both tho conscience and the skill to publish their news grists with proportion and duo moral prudence, Tho right policy concerning tho pre km Is to trust its conductors t" know how to make n newspaper ncccptnblo to the peoplo It Ih to serve, nnd for others unskilled In the ethics and technique of jour nalism to govern themselves by the old adage, "lAt not the shoe- quit wearing dlnpnanous sklrtHl v-"l"r '"'"" ' huh. - and floHh-coIored tights nd doing (Now Orionns Plrayunn).

"The rubber tree grows to a great height, often reaching eighty to a hundred feet and measuring four to five feet In circumference," the Flsk Tiro Company, Inc., largo iikits of this product, tells us In a recent "report. "The rubber is ob tained from thene trees by cutting tbe bark, whereupon a white, milky fluid runs out. The trees are tapped from Ihe bane up to a height- conveniently reached by the natives. "After the tree Is tapped, the milk, nr latex as It Is culled, tric kles along the cuts and rung Into a tin cup at the bottom of the tree. As these tin cups at the base of the tree become filled they aro collect ed by the natives and poured into a large pall or milk can. which !s carried to the native hut or the rubber coagulating factory, as the cajte may be. Mere the rubber Is actually mado. by means which differ In various sections. It Is from this rubber that Kisk tires are made." nrtorHA, Turkey. July 12.
