The Norwagians in Minnesota have in
troduced their peculiar snow shoes there.
The shoes are made Of strips of hard
wood, about ten feet long and six inches
wide, slightly turned upi in front. They
are fastened to the foot at about the mid
die of the shoe. The wearer slides over
the snow, not trying to lift the Shoes and
carries pole with which to keep his bal
ance. After the big SHOWS of the past
winter these shoes were almost the only
means of locomotlon in Dodge county.
1t was not unusual to see something like
half cord Of shoes piled in front Of a
store, within which their wearers were
shopping.

Speaking of the use Of alcoholic
preparations in he treatment of cholera
and kindred diseases the British Medical
Journal says: ssThe superstitious value
attached to alcohol in the treatment of
disease is fast disappearing from en-
lightened medical circles, and the use of
alcoholics in the great London hospitals
is largely diminishing, with good re-
suits" It illustrates the sentiment by
referring to the experience of the Lon.
don temperance hospital, where alcohol
has been given in only three out of three
thousand impatient cases, with an
average annual mortality Of five per cent.
during twelve years.

At the recent convention Of the Ma
tional Agricultural and Dairy associa-
ton in New York, paper was read by
S. Sato, Of Japan, on "The Past and
Present of the Agrarian System in Ja-
PAM Mr.. Sato described the land ten
ure and agriculture under the old feudal
system and said that lands were now held
chiefly in fee-simple by peasant proprie-
tors. The average of farms in Japan
was one acre, as against 1874 acres in the
United States. The method of farming
was to work small piece Of ground
carefully and always up to its fullest ca
pacity. The law of diminishing returns
had apparently not been carried out. The
same plot had yielded the same crop
Of rice for many years. Lately stock
had been introduced, but only few Of
the wealthiest classes ate flesh to any ex-
tent. The farmers lived on the cereals
and fruits Of the $1,000 900 inhabi-
tants Is, 900. 900 were engaged in agri-
culture.

Bausatt, Eugene Marquerat, and Jules
Lang. Mr.. De Bausatt has lived in Chi

study of aerial navigation for over TWEEN
ty-two years. His ideal is to build an

expected to prove by the vacuum theory
that it is possible to navigate the air by

New methods of imposing upon the
trade are continually being discovered.
Facticious strength are given to some
things by the addition of strong acid !;
low grades are being mixed with high
grades, and limitations of popular names
are very common. The late new dodge
is in the coffee trade. Every buyer likes
to have glossy bean, but of course as
the beans grow old part of this glossi-
ness disappears, and the purchaser can
tell that what is shown him has been
gathered for long time. Modern inge-
nuity cannot thus be put at fault. The
coffee beans of an old stock are placed in
revolving cylinder with few drops of
cotton-seed oil, and the cylinder is then
set in motion The small quantity of
oil thus introduced restores the coffee
to its original appearance, and the manip-
ulator can sell his consignment for a
cent more pound than he did the day
before. The fraud can be detected by
putting number Of the beans into cof-
fee cup and filing it with water. In a
few minutes there viii be finn Of oil on
the surface.

Halls Journal Of Health calls attention
to the fact that this is the season for
pneumonia. Anything that lowers the
vitality of the system is conducive to the
disease, and should be carefully avoided.
Overwork, either physical or mental, has
much to do with it, and this explains
why so many business men and brain
workers fall victims to it. Sudden
changes of the weather and draughts of
all kinds are to be guarded against. In
word, live temperately, dress warmly,
avoid all imprudenees, and pneumonia
will keep away from you.

General Hancock,s Sins Of Memory.

An intimate friend OF General Han
cock in speaking of the dead generals
personal peculiarities, said to New
York Tribune reporter:
'sIn most things the general was the
soul of exactness. but in money matters
he was laughably thoughtless. He would
frequently come over to the city without
a cent in his pocket. On discovering his
moneyless condition look Of helpless
surprise would come over his face, and
winking his eyes in that peculiar manner
usual with him when he was puzzled, he
would say: We'll, I declared haven't
got cent. Will you lend me some
money! OF course the pocketbook Of
everyone was open to the general, but he
would only accept quarter or at most
half dollar and go off uptown as hap
py as a schoolboy He always gave the
loose change in his pockets to beggars or
organ grinders and was lucky if he saved
enough to get himself doN'sS-town again,
One day he climbed up the stairs Of the
Twenty-third street elevated station and
began to tumble in his pockets for
money. Five cents was all he could find,
and after winlxing at the nickel for mo-
ment he returned to the street and took
the Broadway horse car for Bowling

book. when he said: 1.-The family re-

was made to the Generals work. There
was not single unkindly criticism OF
any of his work. There were some
criticisms of friendly nature with ref

have been supplied to the General. The
judgment OF book men with whom
