Turkey—the Lebanon mountains. In
ancient times the mountains were
everywhere covered with forests.
The cellars of Lebanon not only fur-

kings of Egypt annually floated large
rafts of logs from the Syrian coast to
supply the demands of the cities of
the Nile, This constant demand from
foreign lands, together with the lack
of any system of reforestation, has
practically denuded the mountains of
the whole land.
Once more to cover the mountains

day of reforestation by nature is the
herd of goats, which every spring
roam over the whole country and de-

PRACTICAL ARITHMETIC.
One Parent Set Up a "Store" to Teach
His Heir Figuring.
We heard recently of a boy ten
years old who was very backward in
arithmetic and got poor marks at
ether)). His father finally decided to
Help slim by actual experience.
Flo started him in business by keep-
ing a grocery store in the attic of their
home. The boy does all his own buy-
ing, selects ]ds goods and keeps a
stock on hand. The mother buys her
supplies from him at the regular price
and 110 keeps the profit for his own
spending money.
The father insists that he peep his
own ledger and keep it accurately or
the business will be stopped.
The boy enjoys the idea of the store
and his own responsibility, so has eag-
erly 101110ed from his father the way
to buy and sell, stake change, figure
profits and keep simple accounts. The
result is shown by his interest in
arithmetic at school and by much
higher marks, He has greatly Im-
proved in the school work, besides
getting valuable training for business.
Reforestation Essential.
It is sometimes we
argued that do
g
not need 10 concern ourselves about
the forests of the future, because the
forests we now have will last us for
60 or 100 years, or even longer; that
it is futile to worry about the matter,
so long as we have wood. Of course,
it is possible to estimate the length of
time our present supply of timber will
hold out, assuming certain fixed dom-
estic and foreign demands (demands,
incidentally, which are by no means
fixed). This question lias no direct
bearing on the problolm of keeping
forest lands productive. Let us sup-
pose, for example, that under certain
estimated demands our present forests
will last us for a hundred years. That
is no reason at all why we should
allow our cut -over lands to become
wastes or near -wastes. In the first
:place it tapes a hundred years, let us

TREASURE -LAND
OF THE ARCTIC
SP1(TZBERGEN IS AN EL DORADO
OF GREAT PROMISE
For the Prospector Who Does Not
Fear Cold and Hardships the
Rewards Are Certain.
There are few places left in the
world which treasure -seekers have
not explored, and it stands to rea-
son that those few must be difficult
to reach. Otherwise, we should have
reached them long ago, and should
have started draining' them of their
rich stores.
Do not imagine then, that Spitz-
bergen, which is known to possess
the richest mineral deposits of any
land in the world, is waiting serenely
for anyone who tares to 1suy a spade
and book a ticket!
Spitzbergen presents as many dif-
ficulties as were ever presented by
El Dorado or Klondike, or any other
of the world's get -rich -quick spots.
Ice -bound during the greater part of
the year, and always unmistakably
Cold, it is only accessible during the
summer, when the ice melts and al-
lows boats to enter its bays.
Spitzbergen has been selected by
the British Northern Exnlorat,ton
Company as the starting point of its
aerial North Pole expedition, so it is
very mueh in the public eye from
many points of view. It lies some
400 miles from the most northerly
point of Norway, some 1,200 smiles
from the north of Great Britain, and
some 000 miles from the North Pole.
Its entire area is about the size of
Ireland.
Several European powers have
their eye upon Spitzbergen, and there
is little doubt that one of these days
big efforts will be made to lift its
treasures. At present claims have
been stalled out by Swedish, Nor-
wegian and British companies.
Before the war a twenty -square -
mile area was granted to Germany,
but this has now been reoccupied by
the British interests, and the Arctic
Coal Company's properties at Advent
Bay have been taken over by Nor-
wegian interests. This coal company
was an American firm, with hear -
quarters in Boston It is not at all
improbable that the whole archi-
pelago will be annexed by Great Bri-
tain before long.
No Mans Land.
The history of Spitzbergen from
the explorers' point of view can be
told in a few words:
Dutch ships first reached there in
1596, and, although possession was
taken In the name of Holland, no at-
tempt was made to snake 1180 of the
discovery. The English flag was
hoisted n 1614, and in 1619 a con-
ference in London effected a com-
promise between the English and
Dutch claims to the new land, the
Dutch restricting themselves to the
north-west corner and the north
coast, and the English keeping to the
other west coast bays. The destruc-
tion of the whaling industry caused
both the Dutch and the English to
abandon Spitsbergen some years
afterward.
Russian trappers were the next to
visit the archipelago. Although they
frequented it from 1750 to 1850
there was no move on the part of the
Russian Government towards annexa
tion.
Th'? hunting interests soon died
down, as the fishing interest had, and
it was not until about thirty years
ago that attention was called to th
mineral wealth of Spitzbergen. Tha
opened a new era.
It was the archipelago's coal de
posits that first attracted attention
Wonderfully beautiful marbles ver

quantity, and of a high grade, ver

raised at once the question of th

was that the only country which fo
a long series of years had consistent

considerable part of the country wa

The north-west corner belonged un
questionably to the Dutch. At pres
ent, however, no Dutch interests ar
engaged in the development of th
land.

Petroleum, "humeri, and gypsum
deposits have also been located in this
rich new lend. On the western coast
huge deposits of phosphorite have
been found, eminently suitable for
conversion into fertilizers. Claims
for digging gold -bearing quartz,
samples of which have been declared
by the Bank of England assayers to
be the hest they have seen f02 a long
time, have been staked out.
In the main the land consists of
wide, boggy valleys, undulating hill-
tops, and fiat ground near the shores.
The low ground is richly carpeted
with low -growing plants and mosses,
but for a brief season it bursts into a
, glory of blossoms, when some 120
varieties of flowering plants cover
- the valleys with color.

The most up to date developments
thus far are the Swedish coal mines
at Braganza Bay on the west coast.
The camp is a well built and well
furnished one, and there are a nnm-
ber of woolen and chr.ldren among the
inhabitants. Live stock is raised, and
no trouble is had with the keeping of
sheep, pigs, and cattle, save in th
winters, when they have to be stabled
carefully.

MAKE THE HOME SAFE.
Defective Appliances In Houses Cause
Many Serious Accidents.
A home should be a safety centre—
s. sanctuary for every member of the
family that occupies it. Dangerous
conditions, such as defective electric
or gas fittings, insanitary plumbing,
unprotected stairways, or stairways
without railings and whch invite ac-
cidents, are lamentably common in our
houses. In a survey of nearly 30,000
accidents in the .city of Chicago cov-
ering a period of eleven years, it was
found that over 61 per cent. were
household accidents. These caused
the death, or permanently crippled,
thousands of persons, and yet the citi-
zens of the United States claim to be
a "hone -loving people." A similar

Conservation for Consideration.
It is a fact admitted by thinking
farmers that through negligence or
misplaced frugality in not providing
covering for implements of agricul-1
ture, when not in use, they get about
half the years of service from them
they should. The loss from exposure
is greater than the deterioration that
follows through legitimate use.
We will assume that the necessary
equipment required to work a farm
coats $1,000 and that with care the
equipment may be used for ten years.
Without care these implements would
be scrapped in five years. The de-
duction to be made from these figures
is that an implement shed built and
in use in five years is equal to $600.
It does not cost half that sum to
build a good implement shed, but how
many farmers, otherwise up to date
and progressive, fail to provide pro-
per care for the tools with which they
work?

Surd High Heels
Cause Corns But
Who Cares How
0 0
Because style decrees that woman
crowd and buckle up their tender toes
in high heel footwear they suffer from
corns, then they cut and trim at these
painful pests which merely makes the
corn grow hard. This suicidal habit
may cause lockjaw and women are
warned to stop it.
A few drops of a drug called freez-
one applied directly upon a sore corn
gives quick relief and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts out without
pant. Ask the drug store man for a
quarter of an ounce of freezone, which
costs very little but is sufficient to re-
move every hard or soft corn o1' callus
from one's feet.
This drug is an ether compound and
dries in a moment and simply shrivels
up the corn without inflaming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue or
skin. Clip this out and pin on your
wife's dresser.
