The extreme richness of the milk of
the reindeer. that feed on the wild MOSES
of Sweden, has led to an examination of
the moss as an article of food. These
researches have resulted in the establish
ment of number of moss dealers In
Russia and Sweden, and a prosperous
and growing interest has been developed.
The moss employed yields, on an av-
erage, as much alcohol as good grain,
and three times as much as potatoes. The
supply is practically inexhaustible, as 1t
is spread over vast tracts extending. from
the Baltic to Behring Straits.

The report of the work of the life-sav-
ing service for last year, which has re-
Gently been issued, shows that during the
year 1885 there were 371 disasters
to vessels within the field OF the
life-saying service. The total value
of property involved amounted to
$4,634, $50, and of this amount
only property valued at 81, ,254,797 was
lost. The number of human beings i'm
periled by these disasters was 2, 439, and
of these only eleven were lost, while 56s
shipwrecked persons were given shelter
and succor at the live-saving stations on
the coast. The report presents these de-
tails: In addition to persons saved
from vessels, thirty-seven others were
rescued who would probably have per-
ished without the help of the life-saving
crews. Eighteen of these were taken
from the water into which they had fall
fen from wharves, piers, etc.; ten from
isolated cribs and conduits, from which
they were in imminent peril of being
swept by the waves, and nine from houses
in danger of being washed away by inun-
dation. The Investigations held in each
case of loss of life show that in no in
stance were the life-saving crews at
fault, and that the fatality was
beyond human prevention. Of the eleven
persons who perished, one, boy, was
swept away and drowned through reck
lessly climbing out of the breeches buoy
and attempting to hold on by the sling
while being drawn ashore from wreck; !;
eight were lost by the breaking up Of their
vessel on an outlying shoal beyond reach
of the apparatus, the terrific surf and sea
rendering boat service impossible; one
was scalded to death by the breaking of
a steam-pipe upon stranded steamer,
and one was drowned from a steam
launch, which was run down by passing
vessel and sunk. With one exception all
those fatalities occurred during the hours
of darkness"
