 Doctors have inveighed again and again against the dangerous gum which is used on some envelopes, and mishaps have been frequent as the resu,t of dnmpeniDg the gum on envelopes with the tongue, All possibility of su h acc dent is re nJve by the aut Dn tic loci envelopes which have been patented in Englaid by Mr. Hook On the flap of the envelope are two projecting tlauges, and all that is necessary to do to close the envelppt is to fold these fianges by ready stamped lines, and insert l he end of the flap thus narrowed in slot pro- yided, whereupo,i the folded flanges automatically lock themselves in the slot, and the envelope cannot be opened without tearing it. The operation sounds mnch more complicated than it really is in practice, for one of these new envelopes can be closed as readily as the betterknown gummed envelopes. --Ey.

4 curious fact in connection with tho effect of the progress of civilization comes from Australia. It appears shat in the older parts of that country the kangaroo is practically externlinated. In Victoria the kangaroos formerly out numbered the sheep in the. proportion of two to one. and old shepherds state that It was net an uncommon thing to see the sheep and the kangaroo feeding together upon the plains, as many as two or three thousand kangaroos frequently accompanying Ii flock of O thousand sheep. Tie reduction in the number of kangaroos has materially af- fected the possibilities of profit on sheep farms. as will be seen fiom the fact that q "station" which in 1850 could barely graze 5000 sheep can now be made to carry 40.0oo without any dan ger of being overstocked New York Commercial Advertiser.

\ Missionary Disgustrd.

i One year ago Dr. Arthur Greayes, of Boston, went West to do, missionary work among the Indians For the last ten years he had been an active mem- Der of Eastern societies formed in aid of thc red men, but he wished to visit 1 the sayages in person and to adminis- ter spiritual and worldly blessings to them. He visited number of the agqneies and conyersed with hundreds of Indians. Faithfully he labored for nearly year; then he quit. Dr. Greaves was at the Richelieu, Chicago, recently journeying toward Boston. He is totally disgustel with the abor- igines
 Y have worked like an apostle of the 1 olden times with the Indians, he said last evening, 'and have retired from missionary work for good. The West err Indians know more than the peo- pie of Boston, and they are as crafty as a veteran detective. For years pjtio them, for l thought they had been treated shamefulIy and were innocent and ignorant They know considore- ble l would tell them Bible stories at the Rosebud Agency, and they would listen most attentively When l had finished they would get together and guy me unmereifully. When l was with the Sioux Chief Red Cloud, he sail that couid make hundred h. dians happy by getting cur society to send ont fifty blows and other farming instruments
 I got the people at home interested in the matter, and they shipped me 'wo carloads of heavy tools These were distrihuted to the Indians, who ap- peared overioyed with the prospect of having the means of tilling the soil Shortly after this l went further West for a month. When l returned, I could not find any of the implements sent ont from Boston. After dIligeRt search, it WAS discovered that the heathens had pitched then, ah in the White river, and made a bridge of them The cost ly tools sent out for farming purposes were used as you would stones, and q bridge across little river was all the good accomplished This is one ia- stance, anl there are many more simi- lar cases
 At this time began to lose faith in the sincerity displayed by the Indian. and subsequent events proved to mo that the Indian could only be an L. dian All the teaching in tho world couli make no difference. Tue best wuy to solve the Indian problem is not to bother with it at all Leave them all to the Western peo ,,le and they will treat the red man fairly and keep him in his plgce at the same time, Eastern phiiluthropists, who meddle with ef- fairs of which they have 10 accurate knowledge, do more harm tlIan good.

Arizana vs. Lake Copper.
trueblo Ore and Metal Review,

tPuehlo Ore and Metal Review
 From valuable paper: "rhe Cop per Resources of the United States, T resd by James Douglas of New York, before the September, 1890, meeting of the American Institute of Mining En- gineers, we take the following:
 ''0ver 90 per cent of all Arizona cop pen is derived from oxidized ores, which are found in the seuthern and middle sections of the Territory. Nature has reduced the copper in the Keweenaw rocks of Michigan to metal In south- ern Arizona she has assisted the metal lurgist by efec'ing partial alteration of the ores to oxides and carbonates In both cases the action has been at tended with the elimination of certain elements injurious to copper, which are almost invariably associated with the sulphuretted ores of the metal, and are difficult to extract by the usual smelt ing methods. Hence copper made from native Lake ore ranks highest in quail ty Ill the markets of the world, and that made from the oxidi1ed ores of ArizoI q holds an intermediate place abetween Lake copper and the metal made by the ordinary methods from sulrhnretted ores It can be drawn and rolled and stamped into intricate shapes, like Lake copper, but 1t lacks the high electrical conducuvity of that exceptionally val uafle metal. It possesses the qualities Of the copper from the Burra- Burra aud Moonta mines of south Australia, which is likewise the product Of OK idi 4ed ores
