Herald Publishing Company Roanoke Rapids, N. C. E.ffel Tower of Milk. Fo enormous is she consumption of coinhrsi d milk in vuriius tanas that a year's supply wHl be no light harden for nil the soldiers at present serving in the world's armies. Tu get a wore vivid conception of its vastnesa. let us fashion a column from the hun dreds f millions of tins which con tain it; we shall then find that our column, standing on a base one hun dred feet square, will rise higher than ttie stiininii of the Eiffel tower. Its heij;h', in fact, will be 1,100 feet, and on it.s top there will be comfortable stsmdiiiK rnoui for four battalions of soldiers. Symbolic Oetober Gems. For the person born in October who wishes to have a ring showing the stone of his guardian augci and apos tle for the month a quaint old cus tom worth revivingit is worth know ing that for the angel named Barlel, apite is the stone, and for the apostle Simon Jacinth Is selected. The combi nation, though symbolic, might not be altogether pleasing. The hop, an ciently used as the symbolic flower of the month, Is sometimes used as the design in un ornamental gold ring, for persons born in October. The Care of Jewels. It Is stated by good authority thst the safest way fo curry jewels Is In a belt, made for the purpose, around the waist. This Is not exposed and Is secure, if reasonable care Is taken In adjusting it, ami it is not uncom fortable. The worst possible way Is to put thetn In a jewel case. The business of duplicating strings of pearls is at present a profitable in dustry of the Riviera towns. The imitations tire worn and the genuine are kept In the sufe. Coal Still Supreme. Kven if it were possible to develop and utilize nt once every possible economic waterpower resource In America, the total energy thus made available would replace only a small part of the horse power now derived every year from coal. While develop ment of water power Is Important, ex perts point out that coal will remain the principal source to which the country must look for development of power facilities. Surely a Good "Catch." There is a great deal that the king of Siam has to offer a wife. He has 20 palaces, a "Diamond City," a herd of white elephants, nearly two million pounds' worth of diamonds, pearls, ru bles and other precious stones, a state barge with a hundred and twenty oars men, thousands of other royal barges, a share In 24 golden umbrellas and many other luxuries.

Glass tubes are easily broken, but a bundle of straws, such as used at soda fountains, may be Vurchased at small cost. Not Influenced by the Moon. The bureau of animal industry says there is no foundation In fact for the superstition that the various phases of the moon has anything to do wlUi tlie proper time to set hen's eggs. The Dark Cloud. It is not surprising that clouds com In for more or less criticism. They live high, are often dissipated, and can usually be classed with the wets. Every Individual. . Every Individual has a place to 811 In the world, and is Important in some respect, whether he chooses t he so or not Hawthorns. Don't Neglect Eyes. The majority of people do not car for their eyes as they should. The eye is too delicate an organ to be subjected to haphazard treatment. A sudden change from a very bright light to darkness should be avoided and, if the eyes are at all weak, the prevailing color in the room In which such a one spends much time, should be in some tint that is soothing and restful to the eyes. Detroit News. When Foote Scored on Garrick. Oarriok, the famous actor, was well known for his meanness, and one day Foote, the comedian, scored neatly. Garrick had been ridiculing a third party, when he relented and said: "Well, I suppose I ought to take the beam out of my own eye before I con demn another." "So you would," re torted Foote, "if you could but sell the . timber 1" What Club Meant to Him. Robbie, a four-year-old, was Invited to go with his mother to the Mother's club. Ho showed no great desire to go and, after his mother had repeat edly told him that she wanted him to go with her, said wdth a great show of resignation. "Well, I s'pose I'll have to, and let them hit me all they want to." Derivation of "London," The derivation of the name "Lon don" is obscure. Some authorities believe It to be a combination of the old Rritish words "lyn," meaning "lake" and "din" meaning "town," pos sibly because until recent times the southern side of the river Thames was practically swamp. Water in Which Fish Can't Live. At the greatest depths of the Black and Caspian seas there is no animal life. In the case of the Black sea this Is on account of the presence of sulphuretted hydrogen In the water, while in the Caspian there Is not, enough oxygen at great depths to main tain any form of animal life.
