They fnil to state that of the SI. 10 paid to the non-resjdent company, there is only thirty-live cents credited as a 'principal payment, the' balance seventy-five cants being taken for interest, Of the . t$1.10 monthly payment to this association on each $100.00 borrowed sixty cents is for interest and fifty cents is credited as a principal payment. This difference in the amount credited the borrower will result in the borrower in the non-resident company be ing compelled to pay not less than $25.00 more on each $100.00 borrowed in order to discharge the debt than they would if they were doing the business with this Association.

Editor Trlbuno: In tho Trlbuno of tho lfith, In speaking of tho prospec tive organization of the farmers' non partisan league In Nebraska, which causrd such a political upheaval In North Dakota at tho htto olectlon, wo read "Its objects are to recast eco nomic conditions entirely for the bon- oflt of tho farmor." Tlisit is wiuuy jumping at conclusions, hasty and in a spirit that Is vory likely to be mls- undfrstood. All cinsscs 01 uio common pooplo were engaged In that revolt. Tlmt leagU3 will olther be a mlgiuy political uplift or a dismal failure, i nnculent unon is onjccis ana nor- osty and its pilomotors, hiiouiu u iu velop luto a class politically or party of classes, It will bo short lived.

' JBI Polishing Coral. Although Venice Is a center for tour ist trndo In coral and .shell cameos, coral Itself Is neither gathered nor worked there Tho manul'iicture Is con- lined to Torre del Clreco. Polishing j coral in quantities Is an Interesting featuro of the work. It Is placed iin small bag of strong, raw linen together with crushed puinlco stone, and tho bag Is shaken In a special tube with a hole for drainage under a small column of ' water. When the coral Is well puml-, catcd It Is washed and paused Into a 30 caik'il 'pullmento" (red or white) Is used, and the former operation la re peated, first without water, then with a llltlo and dually with much' water, when tho coral has become brilliant. What tile "pullmento" Is the Inhabit ants of Terro del Oreco, whllo so proud and Jealous of their Industry, huvo never taken the trouble lo llnd out, as, Indeed, what the "auuu osslgcnnta" (hydrogen peroxide) Is, which Is used to change the color of tho coral, black when extracted from tho sea, to red. As for the "Jiullmento," It Is not differ ent from that which tho Jewelers use to iiollsh precious stones. Exchange. Keith Theatre South Park Poultry Yard Whoro wo raise the Uonl Worn Comb Hods.
