Not only 1m this method been found to furnish superior products according to workers who have been responsible for these activities, but it prepares the children for oc cupations that will eventually make them self-supporting, such as print- Top Making the Orphanage Fur niture.

The same plan is said by these workers to have been followed with considerable success in the admin istering of general relief.' Because it was found that the indiscrimin ate distributions of money and food tended to make permanent beggars of those that received thisNform of relief, industrial shops haVc opened where employment is given 'to thoie in need The products of these hop5 are either sold or ustd in curing fur the orphans and adult refugees. Though such methods cannot be adopted in relieving such wide spread suffering as now exists in Armenia and elsewhere in the Cau casus, where famine conditions and accompanying disease arc reported to be causing the death of thous ands, they have been found to be practicable in regions where the suffering is not so acute or wide spread and have resulted in the saving of a large amount of money, which it has been possible to apply to nn extension of necessary relief activities. 03IA1IA JLULY AND SUNI)AV,IH:i:,....S5.00 f llotli One Year Till; DAIfOTl 1'01'NTY imtAI.1) ....$1 BO $5.75 Totiti $(i.r.o Send or hand us your subscription and'wo will mail It in for you DAKOTA COUNTY UEltAM) Hnkolji City, Nelmiska Straflftiar Start u venr B !W'3LjBKii " ''nvlm.

ON THE MAKING OF" MATCHES Chlness Factories Now Are Producing Thousands of Tons, to th Great Alarm of Japan, ' Tlicre Is n Joy In corisldering the old verse which told of fleas having other fleas upon their backs to bite em, the process continuing nd Infinitum. . Be cause out of the Far East comes the Interesting Intelligence that the Chi nese Imve gone Into the innnufuctur lug of matches, and nre so diligent nnd skillful In the business, that the Jup nneso trade Is becoming fearful of .their progress, as competitors, tlie Cincinnati Huq .Irer states. Not so long ago the American mar kets were Hooded with cheuper Imita tions of the cheap Swedish mutches, which compete with the sturdier' and more dependable Hamc-iilaUers turned out us profusely In America. It wus not thought that there could be made anything worse than the Scandinavian product, but when the Japanese fraud arrived, this view is as revised sharp ly. If It Is possible that the Chinese have been able to make the matches at u lower cost than their Nipponese rivals, then Indeed they have accom plished the mlraculotm, and (he world will applaud them for the feat. . Ap patently success litis come to them, four large factories at Tlen-tln be In;; needed to supply the demnnd, which is mciiMitcd by the thousnmls of tons. If they ntc being shipped to this counti.v, as undoubtedly they will he, It Is to be hoped that the triumph out th low -guide Japanese Imitation of the entitle and independable Swed ish splint has not been effected through the sacrifice of efficiency In striking fire and holding It, Nothing could be worse. NEW WAY TO FOIL ROBBERS Hard to Get Away With Satchel That Is Equipped With a Powerful Alann Gong. Holdup men who hnve been special izing In the robbery of bank messen gers and pay-roll carriers will not te Juice In the Invention of the lu'test security satchel, designed, as It Is, to prevent their silent getuwny, says the Scientific American. The satchel Is ordinary enough In appearance, feiive that it Is of steel. In the lid It car ries a monster bell, operated by two dry tells, which are capable of ringing the alarm continuously for six hours. The switch Is hidden In the grli handle and has two buttons so ar ranged that" when tho messenger dis covers that ho Is belli,; held up he can Instantly push one of them. The alarm will go off and stay off, and can be hctiul for u distance of half ii mile. The second button' Is for previous adjustment, nnd lends (o a delayed action that holds the ringing up for ten or twenty seconds enough h enable the messenger to make Ids getaway from the Immediate range of tho holdup man befoie the hitter dis covers what he Is up against. We must agree with the Inventor that no crook is likely to march through the streets carrying n ringing satchel, or to get vvy far with It If he attempts It. Certainly, until the stick-up aitlts learn how to put the mufiler on the boll Instantly and permanently, the new trick ought to be effective. And that Is all that could be nuked, for the man who Is coping with u robber must expect to change Ills plan of cam palgiiAiis fast as the thlefMearns what It Is. Trackless Trolley Abroad, From a German periodical, Klekl troleehnlsehe and Miischlueiibau, we learn that electrically-driven Tiuses connect Vienna with tt subuib a short distance away. These trackless trol leys run on pneumutle tires and are fed from a double trolley lino on which rolls a small contact-making carriage, connected with u flexible cable to the car. The length of this cable can be varied, as Its end Is wound arpund a take-up drum. Approaching cars have to stop when passing each other, ex change their cables and proceed again. The ears nre driven by two motors, built Into the rear wheels. They are multipolar, slow-speed, direct current TifiO-volt motors, transmit this their power directly without uny gears. The buses accommodate 24 passengers, but can carry as many as 40. Scien tific American. t mp wmmmm mi imi imU Mi M rr . v ' K rv ' -at? . 1 dbrj'' :wmim'mMxm .u ..v-'.:? yt . is KmMusrm.

DANQDn from Are In frame houses has been reduced fifty per cent, through Improvements In con Ltructlon worked out by the most com petent engineers In the lumber Indus- try. This announcement has Just been made after theso engineers have been working upon Improved designs in frame construction during the past year with a view to reducing the fire hazard (or wood houses to a minimum. Practically no change In appearance In houses constructed by the Improved methods and very little, If any, addi tional cost Is Involved, but the meth ods recommended by the engineers give protective features making the frame house essentially resistive to fire. Interposing of panels and short pieces within spaces that ordinarily serve as flues for rapid spread of fire, for Instance, reduces danger from this cause. Other protective Improvements prevent wooden parts catching fire from chimneys, fireplaces, heating plants and steam and hot water pipes. While wood will burn and there la no such thing as a "fireproof" house within the reach of the ordinary pocketbook, the new protective meas ures devised by the lumber engineers offer an economical type of- construc tion that Is fire resistive and as nearly ' fireproof as frame construction as now developed can bo mado, according to their conclusions. The methods con form strictly to the scientific codes of the most progressive cities and carry a minimum of fire rUk because of the necessarily slow spread of combustion In houses following the new type of construction. !T" vta; '&JrS .,- W-Ta. 5.
