Oh Lord if Thou but take me home, I'll promise the world no more to roam, No more to leave the old fireside, Though war may rage on every side.

During the last fiscal year more than 6,000,000 pairs of stockings made from artificial silk, obtained from wood pulp, were exported, the National City bank. says. The United States has now be- come one of the leading world pro- ducers of artificial pick. From being a large importer of this product, this country has become a considerable exporter. While the tear - tiles made from the artificial fiber are not yet fully equal to those produced front the natural pith, the growing use of the artificial silk is Illustrated by the fact that our imports of artificial silk, chiefly In the form of yarns or threads, aggregated about $30,000,000-• in the last decade, With the opening of the war the supply from Germany and Belgium was entirely suspended and that from Great Britain and France materially reduced. The Mariners' Compass. Ancient Chinese records would seem to give the use of the .magnetic needle for determining direction it long and varigd history. The prin- ciple of the compass, or as the Chi- ese cart it, the south -pointing char- iot, Is stated by Chinese and foreign authorities alike to have been dis- covered during the reign of (MIMS Wang, 1115-1079 B.C. The diseorery was forgotten in a fewhundred years. Then the philosopher Chang Hong, g, who died in 139 B.C., recon- struc ted the devi e c . In succeeding ins troubjes his model was Iost and fore gotten. Froni the third century A.D. onward great interest was shown by the Chinese sages in the alltisiores fn old writings to the mysterious south - Pointing chariot. Attempt after at- tempt was made to solve the riddle, and then we read in writings of the eleventh century of the compass be- ing in use by mariners. The Chinese South -pointing chariot was a magnetized needle suspended on a thread, so as to give freedom to its north and south pro)easities, it seems not to have been wised by the Chinese for navigation, but solely as an instrttnaent for geographers. It Is probable that the Chinese junk captains of early days found it s needles' iaxnry in their shore hug - 'ging and river navigation, The Albatross.
