monty believed that hot climates are
necessarily injurious to Europeans, by
causing frequent liver arrangements
and diseases, dysentery, cholera and
feyers. This, however, is, to certain
extent, a mistake, as the recent medical
statistical returns of our army in India
show that in the new barracks, with more
careful supervision as regards diet and
clothing, the sickness and death rates
are much reduced. Planters and 9TH

due performance of the various processes
concerned in the formation and destruc-

sap the foundations Of life among Euro
peans; but how far this result has been
caused by bad habits as regards food,

had woodpile Of loose sticks andwhats

family, like old boxes and pieces of bar
rels and bits of cast off articles in the
wood line. SO one day, four years ago
last spring, we picked it all up and
packed it in smaller compass, and Or
dered four pieces of narrow board nine
feet long and four feet wide, and then
driving four stakes in the ground, and
with about half dozen nails attached
boards to the stakes, forming the Frame
work of an enclosure for the plants, the
whole costing the sum of fifty cents.
This has been used four sea-

not more than ten cents a year. The
earth was strongly impregnated with de-
cayed wood and with some loan of rot

provision of nature that when one of the
five senses is lost, the remainder be-

that is deaf usually finds his sight and

roughly calculated TO be from 100000

Queer Things in Ears.

A boy not yet twelve years old is al
most a weekly visitor at the New York
eye and ear infrmary. "Well," said
the aurist, as he saw him come in rs
usual one afternoon, "what have you
got in there this time?" "Nawthin'
but bean" he drawled. The boy had
fallen into the bad habit of putting such
things into his ears as buttons,
pieces of slate pencils and wads of pa
per. The aurist recently met with
remarkable illustration of this PERM
cious practice, which he related to re-
porter Of the New York Times:
A young woman Of twenty-three came
to me so deaf that could hardly make
her hear by shouting through trum-
pet. After removing a great quantity
of wax from her ears I found something
metallic.
; ''What's this" said. FsHave you
been putting something in your carp"
sob, dear, no." she said. II am not
so foolish as that"
Imagine her surprise when I pulled
out round smooth button, with quite
large shank to it. "This seems to
have been in there great many years."
[ said. To my surprise the young WON:
on crouched in the corner. in undis-
guised terror.

awful noise?"
It was nothing but wagon rumbling
by, but I instantly saw what the trou-
BILE was. Her hearing had become nor
NAL when I removed that button, and
she was frightened and bewildered at
the tumble of confusing sounds.
The ticking of the clock, chirping of
the canary, or dripping Of water dis
tressed her, and the rustic of her own
silk dress made her start with fear.
i sent one of the assistants home with
her in a carriage, and he said that the
clatter in the streets 50 distracted her
that he was compelled to hold her In her
seat: About week afterward she came
in again
~ "And, wanted that button put back
again, I suppose?" interrupted the re-
porter.
Oh no; she was trimming over with
happiness, though ior day or two she
was afraid to leave the house. But she
told me about that button.

she said, II was sent to the village

zone of them came off one Sunday,
and occupied my time with putting it
in my ear and shaking it out again.
Suddenly I felt it sink away in: there,
and I could not get it out.
II was afraid to tell my grandmother
at the time, and soon afterward forgot
it. At ten years of age began to grow
deaf, and have been getting worse ever
since, but I never once thought of that
button until you removed it"

Victoria's Fortune.

Her Majesty possesses an immense
fortune. The estate at Osborne is at
least five times as valuable as it was
when it was purchased by the Queen
and Prince Albert about forty years
ago. The Balmoral property Of her
Majesty now extend over 30, 600 acres.
Claremont was granted to the Queen
for life in 1866, with reversion to the
country; and her Majesty purchased
the property outright three years ago
for e78, 1000. Probably it's marked value
is not much under ESQ, 900. The Queen
also possesses some property at Cob,lrg,
and the Princess Hohenlohe left her
the Villa Hohenlohe at Baden, one of
the best residences in the place. With
regard to personal property Mr.. Nield
left the Queen over $780, 900, and the
property left by the Prince Consort is
believed to have amounted to nearly
$500, 900; but the provisions of his will
have been kept. a. strict secret, and the
document has never been proved: The
Queen must also have saved vast
sum out of her income, which has al
ways been very we'll managed. Since
the death of the, Prince Consort
the general administration of the
Queen private affairs has been confid-
ed to Lord Sydney, who is consum-
mate man of business: I have reas on
to believe that, in due course, applica.
ton will be made to Parliament on the
behalf of the children of the Prince and
Princess of Wales. Indeed, there is to
be q Royal message on the subject Of
sPrince Albert Victor's establishment
next session. The country will not,
however, be asked to provide for the
younger members OF. the Royal family.
The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh
are already wealthy, and on the death
of the Duke Of SAKE Coburg Gotha they
will emigrate i to- Germany; but the
Connaughts, Albanys, Christians and
Battenbergs will look to the Queen for
provisions; and SO, also, will any Of the.
younger children of Princess Alice who
may happen to make poor matches. 1T
will be seen, therefore; that the Queen,
will have plenty to do with her fortune,
large as it undoubtedly Is; and although
in the event Of her Majesty's death the
country would, be, asked to provide for
Princess Beatrice; yet she viii snatural-
