The Momen of Montenerro.

A correspondent of the London
Standard says: The Montenegrin
woman takes an equal share of labor
with the man at field work, and she does
all the carrying. In travel here one en-
cages horse to ride and woman for
the baggage. Only those who have
neither wife, mother, daughter, nor de-
pendent female relation shoulder bur-
dens as a common thing. Transport by
animals also is a department of female
occupation. Coming from Cettinje here,
one meets pack-horses, mules, donkeys,
going up in droves, with gang of
women following. Tremendous weights
they carry, slung by straps that cross the
upper chest, and as they go they knit or
spin. These dwellers by the frontier
are much better looking than the un-
mixed race of the interior, but not less
hardy, strong and independent. They
have no shame or hesitation in begging,
and universal mendicancy on the part of
women and girls must imagine, have
its influence on morality. In leaving
Montenegro, the traveller carries with
him q deep regard and admiration for
the gallantry, the manliness and the
shrewd intelligence of this strange peo-
pie. He is constrained to wish them
well and to hope that they will acquire
means to live at peace hereafter.

Landscapes Changed by Animals.

All animals, says Professor Mivart in
rectly or indirectly supported by plants,
and the range of plants and the very ex-
istence of species are often wonderfully
affected by the appearance on the scene
of even one new kind of animal. Thus
great grazing district at the Cape,
called the Midlands," was, in Bur-
chell's time, covered with luxuriant
greensward, with few trees and bushes,
with willows and acacias along the sides
of its streams. The introduction of
sheep first destroyed the grass and then
most of the shrubs-a change which
affected the rainfall, so that this region
has been invaded by the hardy plants of
the adjacent Karroo desert, and is fast
becoming an extension of the desert it.
self Saint Helena, when discovered by
the Portuguese, in the year 1902, was
entirely covered with forests (the trees
dropping over its high precipices over
hanging the seal and with a rich fora of
absolutely ly peculiar pants. In 1913 some
goats were introduced, and in fifty years
had multiplied into thousands. Yet in
1909 trees still abounded and the pc
culiar native ebony tree was still so
abundant that it was used to burn linn
with In another hundred years (1810),
the goats had entirely destroyed the
great forests, yet so rich was the soil
that it was hoped, with the destruction
of the goats land they were destroyed
the island would regain its wood by a
quarter of a century. But this was not
to be, for the government of that day
most unhappily planted the island with
trees and shrubs from other countries,
which have so grown and spread that
now the old indigenous fora is almost
confined to a few patches on the central
ridge of the island, at a height of 2, zoe
feet. What has been lost may be judged
by the fact that of the forty-five kinds OF
Towering plants and twenty-three spe,
cies of ferns which yet survive, no less
than forty of the former and thirteen OF
the latter are absolutely peculiar to the
island

Heating Cars by Chemicals,

The new plan devised by French
engineer for heating railway cars ap-
pears to give satisfactory results so far.
1t consists simply in the use for the
foot-warmers of acetate of soda, sub
stance which has considerable latent
heat, and, dissolving at certain tenn
perature, absorbs large quantity of
heat, which becomes sensible during
crystallization in cooling. All that is
required is to fill the ordinary cases
with a sufficient amount of the acetate,
close them, and place them in stove at
about 100 degrees. The cooling of q
case thus charged and heated takes from
twelve to fifteen hours. Two warmers
are thereafter taken from the compart-
ments and placed in stove, where the
crystals of soda acetate are re-dissolved,
and they are then ready for fresh use
The advantages claimed for this system
are: No necessity of changing warmers
every two or three hours, or of maintain
ing numerous employees to attend to
them, also economy in cost of heating,
etc.

BrOken-BOne Fever.

Dengue, or broken-bone fever, also
known as dandy fever" "bucket fever,
and "bouquet fever" is said to have
made its first appearance as a malady in
the West Indies in 1927, at which time
it was also communicated to the
Southern portion of the United States.
The disease, as has been previously
been stated, received the name "dergue"
from the Spaniards of the West India
islands from their word dengue, denot-
ing prudery, which expresses stiffness
a pain in the bones and stiffness of the
body, being the principal features of the
sickening disease.

Wax Industry in China.

Talking of bees makes one think of
wax. The white wax industry of See
chuen, China, however, does not depend
on bees. It is peculiar and growing
industry. Baron Richthofen estimates
the value of the annual crop, on the
average, at about $3,250,00O. In 1879
upward of S405, 900 worth of this curious
chronological secretion was exported
from the one port of Hankow alone.
White wax is the mere exudation of an
insect in state of disease, aggravated
probably by the operation of an uncon
genial climate, and favored by the
presence of a tree for which the creature
has an affinity. In the Keenchang dis
trict an evergreen, known as the Ligus-
trum lucidum, thrives in abundance, and
on its twigs, in the spring of the year,
countless flies swarm like brown film.
The branches soon become covered with
a white, soapy incrustatlon that in
creases in volume until the commence
ment of the fall of the year, when the
sprays are cut off and immersed in water
which is kept boiling The viscid sub
stance rises to the surface, and is skim
med off, melted, and allowed to cool in

the month of August. Then they

have come from every quarter in the
Southern States regarding the pre-
valence of this troublesome, but not
necessarily fatal disease. But few, if
any, deaths have been made known from
its effects. Nearly every citizen of
Savannah had q touch.-some light some
severe-of the malady, and not one of
them can give definite explanation of
the fortunes of the disease. 1t has
spared no one-adults, children, little
men, large men, black men, white men,
colored men, business men, sporting
men, printers, editors, lawyers, judges,
every one being subject TO its fond en-
brace.
As for cure or preventive for the
little nuisance, we are not prepared to
say what is good or what is not good in
either case but leave the matter to the
physicians, who, by the way, have been
reaping a rich harvest from the unlucky
victims of the disease. Some persons
have gone so far as to say that the fever
is more violent on those who have defied
it before falling into its clutches, but for
this we cannot vouch. We can say,
however, that any one sooner or later,
who are among its victims, does not
wish second battle in order to show
better fight. Probably for the above
reason, more than anything else, that is
its severity on those who defy it, we do
ranks have already been visited by the
merciless monster, and to his majesty we
say farewell. - Savannah News.

On her last voyage the Austrian bark
Leandro, bound from the West Indies to
Boston, saw something floating on the
waves that looked like q wreck. AS the
vessel came nearer it was seen that the
floating object was part of cabin OF a
vessel, and that there were two human
beings upon it. A boat was sent to the
wreck Lashed to it were two men,
emaciated, with blackened, swollen lips
and blistered faces and hands. They
were unable to speak, and one of them
was insensible He did not regain con
seriousness till nine hours after he was
taken aboard the Leandro. He was r.
Macdonald, first mate of the bark
County of Richmond, and his com
penion was Henry Lang The cast
aways were cared for on the Austrian
bark and taken to Boston. They were
the only survivors of the County of
Richmond, which went to pieces during
a violent hurricane. In letter to his
brother, describing the disaster of the
bark and his subsequent sufferings,
Mate Macdonald SAYS
At seven o'clock in the morning the
vessel took a heavy lurch to leeward,
and the cargo shifted so much as to
throw the vessel almost on her beam
ends. All hands were then ordered to
get the boat out. We got her down of
the fore house and partly over to lee
ward when the ship took a heavy sea on
board, which filed the boat and COM
pleteiy tore her in pieces. Then it was
every man for himself, for it was evident
that the vessel could not float much
longer. We had nothing to make a
raft of, as everything movable had been
washed from the decks. 1 got ladder
which had been on the forward house
and lashed to it two boards which I got
from the forecastle. Then, with the as
sistance of one man, got it over the
weather side, ready, as soon as the ves-
sci showed signs of going down, to drop
into the water. had not long to wait,
for in about ten minutes she heeled over
to leeward and commenced to settle. L
then let go the ladder and jumped after
it, and succeeded after hard struggle
in reaching it. When l looked shack
the vessel had disappeared, having gone
down stern first. All saw were four
men struggling with the waves on bits
of wreckage, like myself. One man,
Henry Lang, swan toward me and got
on the ladder, which kept us above the
water pretty we'll In that position we
remained few minutes, when we saw
something large floating to windward.
We both let go the ladder and succeeded
in getting to it, and found it to be the
top part of the forward house, with the
beams and all attached, which had been
washed off as the vessel foundered. We
got on top of the house, lashed our
selves to it by means of bits of rope
which we carried around our bodies,
and then foated away from where the
vessel went down. We saw the steward
lashed, face upward, to something. He
shouted to us, but we could render him
no assistance. We were seven days in
that position, exposed to the burning
sun by day and cold winds by night,
without either food or drink, until we
were picked up by the Austrian bark
Leandro, bywhose captain we were very
kindly treated and taken to Boston.
