Frog Farming.

A new industry has sprung up
latterly, which promises profitable
results. 1t is frog raising. A farm
for this purpose at Menasha, Wis,
is in full operation and stocked
with 1000 females, which are capa-
BILE of producing from 600 to 1000
eggs at time. The owner of the
farm gives some other interesting
facts relative to the frogs habits
which are not generally known.
He says:
In ninety-one days the eggs hatch.
The thirty-ninth day the little ami
mails begin to have motions. In a
few days they assume the tadpole
form. When ninety-two days old,
two small feet are seen beginning
to sprout near the tail, and the head
appears to be separate from the
body. In five days after this they
refuse all vegetable food. Sooner
thereafter the animal assumes a
perfect form. Next spring 25, 900,
at 20 cents per dozen, will be my
reward. Figure it yourself, says the
enthusiastic frog farmer, and see if
there is any money in batrachia,
alias frogs.-Scientifc American.

A Stamp Fiend.

He was a stamp fend young and
precocious. The plain American
stamp had no interest for him. He
was making a collection Of foreign
ones and so when they sent him
down to the postoffice for pack
age he did not pay much attention,
but brought it home and handed it
over and skipped out to play tag.
Next day they showed him a new
sister who had arrived. He looked
at her with some curiosity.

Butter Without Churning.

AS a rule, farmers are slow in
adopting any changein their method
of culture, the crops grown, or any
change whatever in the style of farm
management. A certain amount of
conservatism in this respect is de-
sirable, but a non-progressive dis
position indicates a want of ability
to carefully weigh the claims Of any
change and to act upon the convic-
tions arrived at, or a disinclination
to be at the trouble to carefully in
vestigate the pros and cons of any
new method brought under their
notice. Lately we suggested that
butter could be made in a less
laborious process than by the old
fashioned way of churning, by sim
ply burying the cream in a stout
calico bag in loose garden soil for
twenty-four hours or so, then gently
working the resulting lump in the
butter tub for a few minutes, when
the butter can be washed and salted
in the ordinary way. To the gen.
eral run of masculine minds the
proposed method appeared utterly
absurd, but the quicker perceptions
of the ladies of many establish
ments caused the plan to be tried
with the most gratifying results.
The accounts of many of the trials
got into the newspapers, and the
plan has now become we'll known
in all the colonies, and wherever
known is hailed with delight, as by
it q richer-favored butter is pro-
duced at 1.-THE of the labor re-
quired by the old process of butter
making.-Auckland News.

The Business Not Disreputable.

Sim Coy is frank in the reasons
which he assigns why he entered
the liquor business, after serving
nine years as painter in the Shaw
Carriage Works. In his book he
says: "A man ought always to be
ready to give q reason for his choice
of callings. Some say liquor is
disreputable; if that is true the
laws of Indiana are disreputable,
and consequently the men who
made the laws are disreputable. If
the man who sells liquor is disrep-
utable, the man who makes liquor
must also be disreputable, and the
man who drinks liquor belongs to
the same class. There is no way
that ! know of for the people Of
the State, their representatives, the
lawmakers, the men who distill the
brew, make wine and cider, those

HE GOT 1T.

Among the passengers of a west
ern train recently was a woman very
much overdressed, accompanied by
q bright-looking nurse girl and a
self-willed, tyrannical boy Of about
three years.
The boy aroused the Indignation
of the passengers by his continual
shrieks and kicks and screams, and
his viciousness toward his patient
nurse. He tore her bonnet, scratch
ed her hands, and finally spat in her
face, without a word of remon-
STRANGE from his mother.
Whenever the nurse manifested
any frmness the mother chided her
sharply. Finally the mother COM
posed herself for a nap, and about
the time the boy had slapped the
nurse for the fifth time wasp came
sailing in and flew on the window
of the nurses seat. The boy at
once tried to catch it.
The nurse caught his hand and
said, coaxingly: Harry mustn't
touch. Bug bite Harry"
Harry screamed savegely, and be-
gan to kick and pound the nurse.
The mother without opening her
eyes or lifting her head, cried out
sharply: "Why do you tease that
child so, Mary? Let him have what
he wants at once ]"
"But, ma'am, it's a-'
"Let him have it, l say"
Thus encouraged, Harry clutched
at the wasp and caught it. The
scream that followed brought tears
of joy to the passengers eyes.
The mother awoke again.
"Mary turned in her seat and said,
confusedly: "He's got it, ma'am."

A Novel Mode of Warfare.

A New Jersey inventor thinks he
has hit upon method of establish
ing peace permanently upon the
earth by means of electricity. He
does not propose to remodel hu-
man nature, but expects to make
warfare so deadly that it will be
sheer madness for one nation to
attack another. According to his
plan, warfare would result in the
substantial determination of all
who ventured to engage in it. The
inventor describes his idea thus:
"In a word, my scheme is to pro-
duce artificial lightning. Thus far
the experiments have been confined
within narrow limits, but with the
use of a small dynamo attached to
my invention slight shock can be
produced, effective enough to kill
the flies in 2Ox2O room. / claim,
with the use of powerful dynamos,
under my plan, flash of lightning
can be directed against an army a
mile or so away and without injury
to the party operating the gun,
scattering death and CONSERVATION
among the troops. With powerful
dynamos thousands of soldiers can
be killed at a flash, and a number
of flashes are enough to destroy an
army. It can be used at any time
except on rainy or damp days. If
the effect of giving this discovery
would be, as l hope, to put an end
to war, / should feel repaid, but I
dread to think of electricity being
used in war under my plan. The
consequences would be enormous.
It means nothing less than exter-
mination to the opposing army.
Before going any further with it, I
would ask your opinion as to the
effect upon war OF an instrument
such as l have limited at. Would it
retard or facilitate war?"-Western
Electrician.

Curious Tablets in Clay.

Prot. Sayce, lecturing in Manches
ter recently, said a marvellous dis
covery had lately been made ir
Egypt. They had been suddenly
brought face to face with the civil
lied world as it existed in the days
when the Israelites were groanine
under the burdens of their Egyp
tian taskmasters. They could han
die the very letters that were writ
ten by the princes and governors Of
Canaan when as yet Joshua was
unborn, and they could trace the
course Of events that led to the
mission of Moses and the exodus o1
Israel out of Egypt. On the eastern
banks of the Nile was a big line o1
mounds, known to the natives un-
der the name of Tel-el-Amarna.
About two years ago some natives,
while going on with their work OF
disinterment, discovered among the
foundations number of clay tab
let's covered with characters the like
of which had not previously been
seen in the land of Egypt. He was
able to see some that were half OBJ
liberated, and found that they con-
sisted of letters and dispatches writ
ten in Babylonian characters and
in the language of Babylon. Some
of the letters showed that they must
have been written about 143O BE-,
or about hundred years earlier
than the date assigned by Egyptol-
ogists to the Exodus. It was suffi-
GENTLY startling to learn that at
this early period of history the chief
sovereigns of the civilized world,
though they were from
one another by vast tracts of coun-
try, were nevertheless carrying on
an active correspondence. But a
greater surprise was yet to come.
Not only did the kings of Assyria
and Babylonia correspond with the
monarch in the language
and writing of their own country,
but continuous literary intercourse
in the same language and writing
was being carried on throughout
the whole length and breadth of
Western Asia; in short the whole
civilized world of the past was as
closely knit together in literary in
tercourse as they were in these
modern days of the penny post.
Nothing could happen in the dis
tant world or far Orient without its
being Immediately communicated
to the Egytian court.-Scientific

Glorious Heritage Of Manitoba.

Even among the best-informed
people there is no adequate concep-
ton of the vastness of the resources
of this Dominion. Our region of
wonderful beauty, fertility and great
extent has been brought to notice
recently by government explora-
tions and surveys. All travellers
who have visited the Peace River
country since its discovery by Sir
Alexander Mackenzie in 1898, agree
in describing it as a region of un-
surpassed richness and natural
grandeur. The Peace River, rising
in the same region of lakes that
give sources to the Fraser and other
streams emptying into the Pacific,
traverse country that was once the
wintering ground of vast herds Of
buffalo. The Rocky Mountains do
not there present the barriers that
they do further south, while the
warm Chinook winds render the
climate more equable and less Sc
we're than in any other part of our
Northwest. This region has so many
and so great attractions that it must
before long, or as soon as it is thrown
open for settlement, induce an in
flux of population, enterprise and
capital. Distance and lack of means
of communication are the great
drawbacks at present, but they are
in the way of being overcome. The
Fraser, Peace and Mackenzie rivers
constitute continuous waterway
from the Pacific near the interna-
tional boundary to the Arctic east
of Alaska. The. whole Of this enor-
NOUS stretch of country, tor thou
sands of miles, is the richest min
eral region in the known world,
while the agricultural value of the
prairie plateaus of the Peace is
known to be as great as the most
favored wheat-growing territories
either in the United States or Cana
da. Reflection on great facts like
these should admonish Canadians
to hasten slowly in considering any
propositions for a change in their
status. They can afford to wait,
for with regard to this Dominion

"our Mary" Loses Her Temper.

Treasurer Wood of Harris thea
ter, says the Minneapolis Times,
tells this about Mary Anderson and
how she once lost her temper: II
was standing in front of the Rus
sell House in Detroit one day sew
eral winters ago, when Mary Ander-
son drove up in front of the hotel
in carriage with her step-father,
Col. Ham Griffin, and a society lady
of the city whose guest the actress
was to be. The streets were slushy
and the walks were wet. Mary was
assisted from the carriage by Grif-
fin, and as the other woman stepped
on the walk she happened to drop
her sealskin muff in pool of water,
she picked up the muff and tossed
it out into the gutter under the
horses. It was a silly act, and quick
as a fash Miss Anderson turned to

Advice to Dyspeptics.

All dyspeptics should avoid any.
thing which they (not others) can
not digest, says the New York Led
ger. There are so many causes for
and forms of dyspepsia that it is
impossible to prescribe one and the
same diet for all. Nothing is more
disagreeable or useless than to be
cautioned against eating this or
that, because your neighbor $50
and So" cannot eat such things.
If we would all study the nature
and digestion of food, and remem-
Der that air and exercise are as
essential as food in promoting good
health, we could easily decide upon
the diet best suited to our individual
needs. The diabetic should abstain
from sugar and anything which is
converted into sugar in digestion,
such as all starchy foods, sweet om-
elets, custards, jellies, sweet sauces,
starchy nuts, wine and liquors.
The corpulent should abstain from
fat as well as sugar and starch. A
diet of whole wheat, milk, vegetables,
fruits and lean meat will produce
only q normal amount of fatness,
while an excess of acids, sweets,
spices and shortening keeps the
system in an unhealthful condition,
Those who can digest fine -four,
pastry, sugar and fats become load
ed with fat, but are neither strong
nor vigorous.
Thin people with weak digestion
should also advoid such food; for
thin people are often kept thin by
the same food which makes others
fat. Ifthey cannot digest the starch,
butter and fine -four the system is
kept in feverish, dyspeptic state;
they become nervous or 60 into
consumption for no other reason
than that the life is burned out by
diet which only feeds the fire and
does not renew the tissues.
Men dig their graves with their
teeth; not only by drinking whisky
and using tobacco, but by eating
food loaded down with inhamma-
tory materials.

A New Departure.

Editors who receive compliment
ary tickets to county fairs and other
places are often looked upon as
deadheads, but the managers of the
Henry county fair, who have had
some experience in such matters,
had the following printed upon the
complimentary tickets issued:
"This ticket probably has been
paid for ten times over by the pa
per to which it has been issued. 1t
will be honored in the hands of any
man, woman or child, white, black,
red or yellow, who favors the asso-
citation by presenting it. 1t is good
for entrance and grand stand, and
the bearer, if driving, will be enti-
tied to pass a team free. The asso-
citation recognizes the fact that its
splendid success is owing largely,
if not wholly, to the notices SO freely
given by the press, and, while we
cannot tender an equivalent in cash,
we return our grateful thanks. -
