A Man who saw a Mule Die.

White Hair.

SIS it possible for a persons hair to turn

instances on record that there ought TO lie
no longer any doubt upon the subject. In
the late Arctic expedition nearly every

EXPERIMENTS are being made by the
Government of New Zealand with a
view to acclimatizing the English hum
ble-bee. The object is to assist the New
Zealand agriculturists in cultivating
their fields of clover. Common bees
are not strong enough to force their
way into the petals of the clover flower,
and thus fertilize the plants as they fly
from one to another. For this purpose,
therefore, the humble-bee is needed /;
but, so far, the nests sent out have been
destroyed. Attempts to acclimatize the
common bee in some hot climates have
so far proved useless. After a short pc
riod they quit the hives and cannot be
enticed back.

The earliest notice of yellow fever is
that of Ligon, in his History of Bar
BADGES" He there stated that it broke
out early in September, 1647, and that
before the expiration of a month "the
living were scarcely able to bury the
dead" Thereafter it did not attain any
remarkable severity until 1898, when it
destroyed not less than 5000 men of the
garrison of Port Royal in the course of
few months. In 1904 it was brought
tothe South of Spain, and visited Cadiz,
Malaga, and Carthagena But it's great
est force fell upon Gibraltar, where, out
OF the civil population of the town,
amounting to nearly $4,000 persons, only
twenty-eight escaped attack.
