Apple wtood is the favorite material < for ordinary saw handles, and some goes into so-called brier pipes. New Jersey has a timcbercd area of . about two million acres, on which the timber is worth about $8,500,000 on the ; stump. It is mainly valuable for cordwood. Many of, the forest fires attributed to i railroads are caused not by sparks from , 1 locomotives, but by cigars and cigarette | butts thrown from smoking car win- , 1 dows as the trains speed along. j Port Oxford cedar of the Pacific coast, , recently tried as a substitute for Eng- , lish willow in the manufacture of artii firial limbs, has been found unsatisfactory. While it ia light enough, it is too , coarse and brittle. j FRECKLE-FACE Now is the Time to Get Rid of These i Ogly Spots. Do you know how easy it ia to remove those ugly spots so that no one will call you freckle-face? Simply get an ounce of othine, double i strength, from Mecray's I'haYmacv, and i a few applications should show you bow i easy it is to rid yourself of freckles and get a beautiful complexion.

Atlantic Citys freakish Mayor, Wil- , liam Kiddle, loves notoriety as well as , a horse loves oats und is apt to say any- j thing which will get him into print. In I , advocating the making of Atlantic, an , American Monte Carlo, he got plenty of j , publicity, but so far as benefit to Allan - , . tic City is concerned, he is on the wrong ] tack. The gambling fraternity of to-day j is composed of the dregs of civilization , and those who set up gambling houses ' , . are, as a rule, plain criminals, who know j L nothing of fair play and would /egard , 1 as absurd, any game which would not be , a sure thing for the house and its cappers. A city might as well eater to bur-, g|ars, pickpockets or thugs as to this , •lass of operators. We would urge for j Cape May's prosperity not the opening ] up of gambling privileges but the rigid , suppression of every game of chance, of , every dive, of every species of crooked- j , ness or violence. Gambling hells on a , large or small scale, are the greatest ! , menace to our young men which could t be devised. Through their portals they j go to ruin not only because of the gamb- j ( ling, but because of the introduction to j , the practise of drinking rum, which is ] bound to be connected with the gamb- 1 , In fact all forma of evil begin with tbe practice of gambling.

J INTEMPERATE TEMPERANCE * AGITATKHf A writer in the Baltimore Sun'referr!ing to the activities of the Anti-Sslooo • I-eagfte in -Baltimore, says among other thing* the following which will appeal i to many readers: "My advice to Dr. Harris, as a sincere' . well- wisher, is that he cease trying- to i combat alcoholic beverage* on theologiI cal grounds, and adopt tlir far safer de- - vice of combating them on logical grounds. If he dt£Aao, be will find bis ease vastly improved. The saloon, as | we know it in this countrj*, tends to be 1 ! hoggish and an abomination. The whol^o. of manufacturing and sellifijp alcoholic beverage* is invaded by habitual criminals. It is the duly of every good citizen to oppose tbf chicaneries of such gentry. But he hampers himself sorely, I believe, when be seeks to punish the innocent with the guilty — whew tries to show that every saloonkeeper is a lawbreaker and every drinker a sot. Excess of that aort-is the sport of foolish men. It is my contention that such \ foolish men are too prominent in tbe against intemperance in this country, and that their violence is maka bad eituat-ion worse, just as the violence of tbe vice crusaders makes a situation worse yet."
