SAVES FUEL AND HELPS TO PAY FOR ITSELF,
It is not the price you pay fora range which nialtes it
cheap or expensive, but the fuel it consumes after you got it.
If you buy a range which costs $5 to $7 loss than a
"Pandora" and it burns a ton, or only half a ton of coal more
ltd a year, what do your gain? Nothing, but you actually
lose irony, besides putting up with all the inconveniences,
'troubles and extra work which are a certainty with a poor range.
The "Pandora" is equipped with many fuel -saving features
which are not found on any other range. Hot-air flues are con-
structed so that all the boat from tho fire -box travels
directly under every pot -holo and around the oven twice—
every atom of heat is used, and only the smoke goes up the
chimney.

THE WINCIfAN TIMES, 4UGUST 23 1906
EFFLUX QF THE NEW GOLD
world's Supply of *328,0OQ,000 s
Tear Is Quickly Distributed
4anong Nations,
No phase of the financial situation bac
attracted more attention in the forecasts
of the coming year than the inpreased
gold output, of the world. Eight years
ago this product footed up a trifle over
$200,000,090; in 1899 It rose to $106,700, -
MO, sank to $254,500,000 iu 1900 during
the Transvaal blockade, established a
"new high record" in 1903 with its 8328,-
500,000, has certainly exceeded this in
1904 with the $16,000,000 increase in
South Africa, and will probably expand
still further in the approaching year,
says the: New York Poet.
Leaving aside the general question of
the influence of these new supplies on
markets, a highly interesting question
arises, Where does the new _old go?
Even allowing for the substantial por-
tion usod In industry (upward of $20,-
000,000 is thus annually consumed in the
United States alone), who gets the rest?
In particular, which nations are the
beneficiaries?
' This country gets a reasonable share
During the last 12 months the treasury's
figures show that the American stock of
gold in and' out of the treasury has in-
creased by $53,000,000 --nearly one-sixth
of the whole world's output. The great
European banking institutions, too,
have had their share; nine of them have
added' $200,000,000 gold to their reserves
during the twelvemonth, of which in-
crease $51,000,000 went to the Bank of
Frauee, $05,000,000 to the Imperial Bank
of Russia, A22,000,e00 to the Bank of Ger-
many and only $3,500,000 to the Bank of
England. When allowance is made for
use by foreign refiner; and for the large
amounts of gold which in European coin-
munitiesepass Into hand-to-hand circu-
lation, the balance unaccounted for of
perhaps 880,000,000 in the annual output
is not excessive.
But the flow of this new gold from na-
tion to nation ie more peculiar. England
owns the Transvaal mines, which have
produced about $78,000,0('0 gold these 12
Past months, yet the Bank of England
added only one -twentieth of this sum to
its gold reserve. The past year's gold
output in the United States was not far
from $80,000,000, yet scarcely one-third
as much was added to our home circula-
tion, despite a large additional gold im-
port. On the other hand, Russia, whose
own yearly gold product is barely $23,-
000,000,
23;000,000, has been able to add four times
that sum to the Imperial bank's reserve,
while France, which produces no gold at
all, stands second to Russia in the
amount of gold added to its gold reserve.
FIRM FURNISHES "FAKES."
New York Concern That Supplies Bog-
ging Cards and "Grafting"
Implements.
"There are firms in New York that
manufacture grafts for tramps," said
a policeman to a Sunday News reporter
recently. "Here Is a catalogue of one
of these firms."
He took from his pocket the catalogue
illustrated with crude cuts. The first
few pages of the book were devoted. to
begging cards, both in prose and verse,
for the blind, deaf and dumb and
maimed, and so on. The prose cards
•costs five dollars a hundred; the ones
with verses on, seven dollars. They
had strange titles: "The Cripple's Ap-
peal," "Pity the Railroad Man," "Born
Blind,"
Ono of the poetical begging cars
began:
My name Is Marshazt Saunders,.
Pity me and aid,
For I ant blind and always llYe
In the blackest shade,
Also, good friend 1 have at horns
A wife and children nine,
The wife is bed -ridden
And five of the children are Mind.
In another part of the catalogue pew-
ter apoona at 20 cents a dozen were
listed. These spoons, it was pointed
out, were all labeled "sterling." There
were spectacles—"with gold rim marked
22 carat," said the catalogue—that could
be bought for two dollars a dozen. The
spectacle graft is popular among tramps,
A hobo stops ata farmhouse and shows
a pair of spectacles to the farmer's wife.
"I just found these," he says. "They're
no use to me. You can have them for
a dollar. The solid gold frame alone
is worth more."
Rings, marked 22 carat, were to be
bought as low as ten cents apiece. Va-
rious kinds of medicines, put twin small
boxes that bore the inscription: "Price
two dollars," were on sale for five cents
apiece.
"There are a great many grafts for a
tramp," said the policeman, "and this
company does a big and profitable busi-
ness. One of these days, though, It will
be pinched."
Builders Copy Plants.
Principles of construction that arohl-
teeth have slowly worked out, Lord
Avebury suggests, were adopted by
plants millions of years ago. Some
plant stems are round, others are tri-
angular, others quadrangular, and so on,
and it seems possible to give a mechan-
ical explanation of the differences.
Builders have adopted the girder as the
moot economical method. of resisting a
strain in one direction. Plants seem to
have built on a like 'plan, tree -trunks
being round to resist strain from all
directions, while plants 'with opposite
leaves and strain in two directlona have
two girders giving a quadrangular stern,
and triangular and pentagonal stems
may be accounted for as btrengthening
against like obvious attains,

Twilight.
The twilight is sad and cloudy,
The wind blows wild and free,
And like the wings of seabirds
Flash the wbitecaps of the sea,
But in the fisherman's cottnge
There shinee a ruddier light,
And a little face at the window
Peers ont into the night.
Close, close it is pressed into the
window,
As if those childish eyes
Were looking into the darkness,
To see seine form arise.
And a woman's waving shadow
Is passing to and fro,
Now rising to the ceiling,
Now bowing and bending low.
What tale do the roaring ocean
And the night wind, bleak and
wild,
As they beat at the crazy casement,
Tell to that little child?
And why do the roaring ocean,
And the night wind wild andbleak,
As they beat at the hears of the
mother,
Drive the color from her cheek?

Perhaps in no other country are prl»
rate mailing cards produced in greater
variety titan in Japan, and it is prob-
able that In no other country are there
now produced mailing cards so novel
In character and so beautiful.
Japan itself, of course, contributes
largely to this result, and then the Ja-
panese put 00 mailing cards pictures of
many things that are not used as sub-
jects for such illustration on the mail-
ing cards of other lands, They make
cards with pictures of buildings and of
localities, jest such :se are made every-
where, but they make also many cards
with pictures printed on them appar-
ently simply for beauty's sake, cards
witn pictures of scenes from nature or
with pictures of flowers, and maty
cards with pictures of subjects simple
or quaint.
Some among these various pictures
are reproductions of pictures by Japa-
nese artists. These Japanese inailii:e
cards are many of them printed will:
thole' pictures on a background of go'l
or of silver and many of them are
beautifully printed.
In the printing of all these beautiful
cards business is not forgotten. Here,
for ir,tltaliee, is a series of mailing
cards nia•le for a great silk store in
Tokio; the pictures on them illustrat-
ing various features of this establish-
ment., the descriptive titles on the vari-
ous cards, as is true also of many
marlin cards of all sorts made in Ja-
pan, being printed in Japanes. charae-
ters and also in English. This serer a
of cards gives views of the store out-
side and in,
One card has a picture of one of the
store's showrooms. Another gives a
pieturo of its mail order department,
on another ie an illustration of tit'
drawing room of the estal,lishmeur,
whiio on still another is a picture of
one feature of the store that. would 0•'
counted rovol in any store, in this
country at least, this picture b^ing de-
scribed in the English title on the caul
as "a garden with water fountain and
some pairs of mandarin ducks,"
Another picture to this series shows
the store from the outside as it apl'e,trs
illuminated at night, and yet another
sb.nu5 one of the gore's automobile de-
livery wagons on the road.
Among the many quaint and curious
Japanese mailing cards is one that has
for an illustration a picture of a boy
riding on a dog. Here Is a mailing cant
with a picture of cats on it. Another
has a picture of a characteristically
solemn owl perched on the branch of a
tree, the owl appearing In the center
of a disk of black for a background.
Of pictures of flowers on mailing
cards there are many, and there are
many cards bearing pictures of birds
Here, for instance. is a card with a pie-
ture of a flock of ducks flying low along
an ocean beach, the birds well In the
foreground, and so showing large in
the picture.
The ducks are most dueklilte and
most vigorous and strenuous in flight,
and the shore and the sea is most real-
istic; a very striking picture. Odd sort
of picture though, to put on the back
of a private nailing card? Surely, but
most inteersting for all that.
Here are cards with pictures of men
on horseback and cards with pictures
of women on horseback. Here is a car.]
with a picture of a pretty little child
with upturned face holding over her
head a hoop. There are many pictures
of snow scenes and there are many
cards with pictures of cherry blos-
soms, pictures of groves or orchards of
cherry trees in bloom, these most beau-
tifully and delicately colored.
Corning back to city scenes, here Is
a card with a picture that would be
striking for its contrasts if tor no
other reason, a picture showing in the
baekground buildings of oriental archi-
tecture, while in the foreground rolling
along in front are trolley cars and men
riding on bicycles, things peculiarly
modern. Another card has a picture of
trolley cars wonderfully illuminated
with ropes of electric lights, as the
cars appeared on the occasion of some
celebration. Among pictures of many
buildings of modern construction in
Japan printed on mailing cards is one,
for instance, of the women's univer-
sity In Tokio.
As might, perhaps, be expected, there
are just now to be found on Japanese
(nailing cards many pictures of war
subjects. These include pictures of
soldiers and Of armies in review and
pictures Of warships and of fleets of
warships.
Here on One occasion is a picture of
a naval party in boats looking up sub-
marine mines; another card has a pie•
ture of Russian wounded soldiers, Still
another shows the imperial princesses
Making bandages; yet another has a
picture of the field funerals in behalf of
the Russian dead; here is one with a
picture of a blockading party off Port
Arthur and so on.
In short, the Japanese mailing cards
are than souvenir
