You possibly think of Mombasa, | where Roosevelt landed, as a sbrt ol pioneer outpost on the eflfce of the world. As a matter of fact, Mombasa was on the map 200 years before Columbus discovered America, and It la a somewhat prosperous city of 27, 000 people. It is the terminus of the Uganda Railroad, and has a Bteel pier and stone wharves. The protective citadel, which still stands, as a part of the town's fortifications, was started by the Arabs in the seventh century.

For insomnia try this simple rSm edy: Have a barber chair rigged up in your room. Then, when unable to go to sleep by 1.30 a. m.. send your motor car for your favorite barber. When he comes, have him give you a thorough shampoo. If not sleepy then, repeat, and continue treatment until put to sleep. If the treatment fails to do this in five hours. Just take look at the bill. Cant About Advertising. There is a great deal of cant at the ' present day about advertising, emit- , ted by persons who are very keen to ' get all the advertisement they can. I and to get it for nothing if possible. | Qttlet-peopie, ?tw HsWHe<w> waat . to advertise themselves, are much less censorious. Glove Cutting. Glove cutting Is purely a hand trade. No machine could cut out a glove properly, for the simple reason that it could not distinguish between good and bad, thick and thin, pieces of leather. Each .piece of leather i Quires special treatment in shaping, I and therefore the cutting can never | be mechanical. ? ? The Date of Christ's Birth. It Is known that the Christian era, | based on the birth of the Saviour, is older by several years than the time assigned in the calendar; but the pre cise year in which Christ was born has never been finally determined. Lieut.-Col. G. Mackinlay. has recently Investigated the question anew, and has stated his conclusions in a book, for which Sir W. M. Ramsay has writr ten a preface. The date on which he fixes for the Nativity is 8 B. C., ao bates his reasoning on the assumed association of John the Baptist with periodical "bright shlnings" of the planet Venus, the suggestion being tbat these special apparatlons of Venus are the groundwork of the story of the "Star of Bethlehem." ^ Bail-Bearing Motors. British engineers anticipate that | one of the most Interesting features i In the manufacture of electrical ma chinery during the present year will be a greet increase 1n the use of ball bearings. Several types of motors have already been placed on the mar ket which have ball bearings. Among the advantages of such bearings la the relatively small amount of lubrication required for motors fitted with them. It Is considered also that: such motors I should furnish a better , output^ than those having ordinary beaiinga^Bx* I perlments have been made in Europe on the application of ball bearings to traction motors', "but In this ease the conditions are not so favorable as 1a that of motors for use In factorlea. ^SSXtjJs&z bercolosts Bxblbl tioo to be phown la this city la the model teat und at the Printer's Home. This model wWa first shown at the International Con gress at Washington. and la now traveling with the exhibition of tho National Association. Through the cooperation of the 45.000 union printers th*re Is main tained at Colorado Springs, Colorado, a home unique among the humanita rian lnstlutlons of the world, a model from which other unions and frater nal organisations have copied meth ods. The Ufcton Printers' Home Is supported by; a fifteen cent monthly ^ assessment, which means that each \ member of the international Typo- J graphical Union gives to the home I one minute of his working time every day. This yields an annual Income of 190.000 for maintenance and Im provements. The original $10,000 gift by O. W. Chllds and A. J. Drexel arid the Julia A. Ladd 91,000 endow ment, are the only contributions ever accepted. o Since the main building 'was dedi cated May 12, 1802, the growth of the home has been surprising^ ,ln those seventeen yqars total expendi tures have amounted to $8, 000, 000, and the property today Is valued at $1,000,000. The average number of average cost per resident a month be ing $30. Where 20 years ago there was nothing bu? barren prairie the grounds have been converted by Ir rigation and landscape gardening In to one of the continent's beauty spots. There are now six buildings. Includ ing tho heating plant, laundry and dairy. * Of recent years the management has devoted increasing attention to the treatment of tuberculosis and the methods employed In its successful battle with the "white plague" are attracting attention all over the coun try. A special commission made a study of the disease and adopted the most approved and scientific methods | of fighting -It. The results have been go satisfactory that the convention voted down a proposition to trantfT9r | the sanltorlum to Arizona. The tent 1 colony Is an Important factor, and the offlclale^of the l?*lon are author ity for the statement that fully 50 per cent of the patients who have had the advantage of tent life have recov ered health and strength, and re sumed business duties. The per centage would be higher but for the fact that too many are not &ent to the Home In the earlier stages, when they are almost sure of permanent recovery.

It often happens that one who haa heretofore kept only mongrel fowle becomes convinced that he should keep a pure breed, but for some rea son he finds It Inconvenient to aecure the same. The cost in many cases la too much, snd. though he would like to have better fowls, he feels thst he ?annot afford it. In such cases we would suggest a gradual improvement, a building up. as It were, of the mongrels he has. ' X male bird of some good breed will give him the first year half breeds, and these mated with a pure; breed will the next year further im prove the" flock, and so on for a* few years, when he will have a good strain of pure bred fowls.
