A Few Things to Rememher.

Here are a few miscellaneous hints, rules
and facts worth remembering:
A cord of stone, three bushels of lime and
a cubic yard of sand will lay 100 cubic feet OF
wall
One thousand shingles, laid four inches to
the weather, will cover 100 square feet of sur
face, and five pounds Of shingle nails will
faStcn them on.
\ box Ii inches square and S 2-5 inches
deep will contain one bushel.
One cent saved each day and put out at c
per cent. interest will accumulate to $3.50 in
fifty years.
Eight bushels of good lime, sixteen bushels
of sand and one bushel of hair will make
enough good mortar TO plaster 100 square
yards.
y stone, used by grOcers, is equal to four.
teen pounds.
1t takes from u to bushels of wheat to
SOW one acre of ground.
To find the amount of hay in nov allow
5l2 cubic feet for ton
A thousand laths will cover seventy yards
of surface, and eleven pounds of lath mails
will nail them on. New York Evening

Colored Snow Storms.

Colored snow storms were recorded as long
ago as the Sixth century, and shower of red
hail is said by Humboldt to have once &C.
CURED in Palermo. In Tuscany, on March
IA, 1913, there fell hail of an orange color.
In 1903 red snow fell to depth of over five
feet in Carniola, Germany. The storm Of
coforea snow was followed by one of the reg
ulation color, and the effect produced by the
separate layers OF red and white, which were
perfectly distinct, was very peculiar. A por-
ton of the scarlet snow was melted in YES
sci and the water evaporated, when a fine,
rose colered, earthly sediment was found at
the bottom. Snow of a brick red hue feA in
Italy in 1916 and in the Tyrol in lS47. In the
first volume of kane's Arctic Exploration"
it is stated that when the ship passed the
Crimson Cliffs of Sir John Ross" the patches
of sed snow from which they derive their
name could be seen at a distance of fully ten
miles-Exchange.

4 Fabulous Price,

Wide as the public opened their eyes at the
astonishing sum of $500 at which Seymour's
six original drawings for 'Pickwick' were
knocked down to Mr. Quaritch, they would
open them wider still could they see what it
was for which the amount was paid The
scrap book in which they were pasted was a
childs ordinary exercise book, which was dis
figured by coarsely colored scraps, painted
doubtless, by one Of the unhappy artists chill
dren The sketches themselves were 80 small

and three f them are said to be torn. A LON
don expert valued the "lot" at go and yet
so eager was American competition and so
doughty was British oppOsition-in the per.

The best preservative of eyesight is out
door exercise A cold bath every morning
stimulates the circulation, and with an ac-
tive bounding of the blood through the arte-
ries assimilation and elimination bring about
good results. Heated rooms with poor illu-
mination are prolific source of weak eyes,
Reading or writing with the light falling on
the page and rejecting its rays into the eyes
often brings about spasm of the little mus
Giles which govern the accommodation, and
the result is to exhaust the eyes. The light
should always come from behind the individ-
nal, and fall obliquely over the left shoulder
People who indulge in overlooking, are care
less about clothing, travel with damp feet,
Or dine irregularIy, all suffer sooner or later
from defective vision. A habit quite COM
mon among fashionable ladies, to whom nat
ure has denied a black or brown eye, is to
seek the secrets of the chemists shop, and
apply a weak solution of belladonna or hOma-
trupine to dilate the pupil and render the
cornea more brilliant. Even the cologne
bottle has been drained of its contents to
give brillancy to the eye. Such habits are
only to be spoken of to be condemned. Let
the natural lubricant be the only cosmetic
used. See that the tear duets are kept
healthy by proper means and nature will
then do her duty.-New York Commercial

At a recent meeting of the Scientific society
Of Copenhagen Professor Steenstrup gave an
account Of the result of his examination of
the great mammoth deposit at Predmost, in
Moravia. DR.. Wankel and Professor Maschlia,
who have devoted much attention to the sub
ject, are of opinion that the mamnotbs
whose remains are found in this district were
killed by man, and that their bodies were
dragged thither to be eaten Professor
Steenstrup, ON the contrary, holds that the
mammoths themselves sought the locality
and that they must have died from want of
water, or from some other cause with which
man had nothing to do The splits in the
remains are due, he thinks, to the action of
water and sand, and afford no support to the
notien that the knuckles were cleft for the
sake of the marrow. 1t is certain that some
of the bones have been exposed to the action
of Ere, but Professor Steenstrup maintains
that the traces of fire may be due to the fact
that fires were at one time lighted upon them
On some Of them decorative lines have been
scratched, but these may have been made
long after the mammoth was extinct in No
ravia.-Nature.
