The Sparrow.

For the common house sparrow, as
distinguished from the SO called hedge
sparrow and the tree sparrow, moth
ing can be urged in its favor. De-
stroy them utterly is my advice, and
have reason to think that Miss Ormerod
has come to the same conclusion. Expe-
rience has shown that their i'll advised
importation into Australia and North
America has wrought incalculable harm
to cultivated vegetation. The bird is
grain and vegetable feeder for at least
three-fourths of the year, seeking insects
onlv when leaf buds and cereals are not
available for food.
Sparrow clubs should be encouraged
in every village in order to check the
undue increase of the species, which, by
the by. breeds at least three times in the
year. In connection with these sparrow
clubs, it is somewhat curious to note that
the authorities in some English country
parishes have from time immemoriai
paid the village lads at the rate OF four a.
penny for killing these birds, and have,
moreover, purchased eggs. And some
hnd OF sparrow seems to have been con-
sldered destructive in Syria in ancient
days, Tor we are expressly told that 1.-TWO

have among other curiousitles in nv cab
net mysterious bottle.
1t is very ordinary looking bottle, but the
mystery is in the CORK. 1t is corked with q
wooden stopper like any other bottle, bur on
the inside of Ill long nail passes through
the bottom of the stopper. so that it is impos-
sible to remove 1t. Now, how did that nail
get there? 1t could not have been put
through the cork before closing the bottle,
as It is much longer than the mouth of the
bottle. and 1t could not have been introduced
after the bottle was closed
Well, without making you wait will tell
you how 1t was done and how you can make
q mysterious bottle yourself to puzzle your
friends.
: Frst--take bottle like the one in the pict-
ure and cut off very neatly, as shown, about
one quarter Of an inch of the top of the STOP
per, which should be of wood.
Second-Bore a hole longitudinally through
the centre of the cork with red hot knit
ting needle, and stop 1t about one half inch
from the bottom, which should project into
the bottle about three quarters of an inch
below the neck.
Third-At one half inch above the bottom
of the cork bore another hole. large enough

pass our own checks in.
And Bob he was so PEACEFUL it made us catch
our breath
When told he died untimely by being clubbed
to death.
If he had died of heart disease. marasmus or
paresis,
1t never in the world had knocked our nerves
so much TO pieces;
He might have died with Bright's disease, bron-
chitis, meningitis,
OF apoplexy, measles, Group, pleuritis or La
grippe;
Paralysis, tuberculosis, dropsy, fever or me-
phritis;
boil on his lip;
These or others they had answered; but, heav-

And Bob was so ambitious, so brainy, clever.

to take in the nail at right angles to the first
hole as shown, then push through the top
hole stout piece of string, so that 1t will
come out at the one end Of the horizontal
hole.
Take round wire nail and file notch in
the centre, to which the string must be tied,
then, gum the string and nail and fas-
ten the string along the nail to the point and
the bottle. First, put in the nail fastened to
the string as described, and then the. cork !;
then invert the bottle and pull the string un-
til the point of the nail enters the hole; now
pull steadily and the nail will go through the
hole until 1t projects an equal distance on
both sides, and your bottle is tightly corked !;
then take the piece of wood you cut off at
first and glue 1t carefully upon the top again
so that it will hold the string in place, which
you must cut off just inside the edge. Now,
If you cover the cork with ink, or, still bet
ter, sealing wax, it will be impossible to tell
how the nail ever got into the bottle.

English hospital Statistics.


IaKlng the quantity of medicine used
at st. Bartholomew hospital, London,
as a fair criterion of the medicine used
per patient, the quantities of medicine
used every year in the hospitals of this
country are as follows: Ointment, $4,000
pounds; cod liver and castor oils and va
rious kinds of mixtures and lotions, etc.,
10000 gallons; upward of half million
pills, and between thirty and forty tons
of linseed. Mr.. H. c. Burdett estimates
that the hospitals of the kingdom have
invested property worth ten millions.
Their income is nearly million and a
quarter per annum.
The expenditure per bed varies most
strangely. 1t is least in Scotland and
greatest in an Irish institution. At
Westminster it is only e70 per bed; at
University College hospital it is clio per
bed; at the Royal Surrey County hospi-
tai it is ELL; at the Devon and Exeter
e51, and about the same at the Soup
