Itin wnuiu pr- roit the moneyed men to pisk them up bt bargain counter prices and would consumite nvich licker the Morgan i ombine of current literature. Just how tiie increase will affect the cheap magazies was xplained b- a rep resentative of S. S. McClure, who admitted at the outset the cost of the editorial department for "investigations of one sort or smother" is expensive.

This is especially it was pointed out in investigating djings of the' ''interests." "In thee ae of it was said, "an increase of four cents a pound in advertising will cost addition-i! a year. At best the profits of this class of magazines ate not large, and the result mus be a loos of circulation and standing. If the law ij enacted the influence of McClure's and all imilar publications will be at an end." At the offices of the Crowell Publishing Company, which publishes the Wo man's Home Companion and the American Magazine, it was said the advance in the postal rr.tes proposed will mean aT increased or io those pultlica'ions.

The pains in my stomach were very bad, the gas forced the food up into mythroat, my food did not digest, headaches of the worst kind attended. I was weak, nervous and in a condition so 1 could not sleep.

I became alarmed at my condition as doctoring did not benefit me, finally 1 was induced to use Ml-O-NA, and using for about two weeks, I found a cure."

It Is not generally known- thnt after a certain time spiders become lnca pable of spinning a web from Inck of material. The glutinous excretlou from which the slender threads are spun Is limited; therefore spiders cannot keep on constructing new snares when the old ones are destroyed.

But they can avail themselves of the web producing powers of their younger neighbors, and tills they do without scruple. As soou as a spider's web constrjiotlng material' has become exi haustwlSiid Its Inst web destroyed it sets out In search of another home. and unless It should chance to find one that Is tenantless a battle usually en5 sues, which -ends only with the retreat or death of the Invader or defender.

Volcanic Islands have frequently appeared and disappeared In the various oceans. A British man-of-war once was sailing near where such an event took place, and Its crew had a chance to witness that seldom seen occurrence, the birth of an Island. As soon as It was possible the British captain landed and formally annexed the new land to the British empire. Then he hoisted the union Jack, and sailed away. lie expected to be knighted for his enterprise, but when another ship was sent out to take a look at the island and report upon Its availability as a naral post for supplying passing ships the new found island had vanished entirely.
