Oil for rheumatism and sore back, as stated,

providing for the propagation of
any beast or bird, the fresh
immigrant is apt to multiply
enormously and to become a nuisance.
Generally speaking, such experiments
are dangerous as are being tried by an
acclimatization society in Portland,
Ore, which has within the last few
years brought over from Europe and let
loose thousands of birds in the valleys of
that State--among Others the nlghtln-
gale, the song thrush, the European
yellowhammer and the English black
bird, which is closely allied to and very
much like our robin. These birds were
caught by professional bird catchers in
Germany and England and sent across
the ocean in stages, supplied with seed
and cuttlebones. Skylarks and star
lings have been imported similarly, COL
onies of both being established on Long
Island, where they were wiped out by
the great blizzard. So far as the star
lings were concerned, this was probably
Fortunate. because they are voracious
grain feeders and would have been likely
20 prove most detrimental.

good rule to follow. Let husband and
children realize that. Though the hall
stand is the place for the hats of the men
of the household, it is most unsightly

cloaks, rubbers, etc. If there is a
closet in the hall it is just as easy to put
away the outer garments where they will
not greet the eye of every visitor and
reserve the hat rack for the hats of the
casual callers. Scrap baskets placed in
every room will save world of litter if
put to their proper use. These baskets
can be emptied each morning, the car.

library make it an infallible rule that
they shall be returned when the reader
has finished with them. Have the
shades at the window even, the table
set with precision and car e, the children
neat and clean, and you may be sure the
husband and father will appreciate your
efforts. Many women, excellent house
keepers. too, do all this, but never have
time for anything else.-Home and

the .ssparrow" and the ''anti-sparfow"
men, all politics being made subordinate
to the question whether the Government
should undertake the extirpation of the
bird. At present in the land Of the kan
CARGO organized efforts to this end are
being made, one of che most effective
being to carry a sack of poisoned grain
with a small hole in it at the tail. board
of a wagon, travelling over the roads and
leaving for mile after mile continuous
dribble. Men also 60 about with long
poles bearing hooks, with which they
pull down the nests. One person in this
manner can distroy hundreds of thou
sands of eggs and young in a single
season. Nevertheless, but little impress
siod seems to have been made thus far
upon their numbers.
The injury done to Australia by the
imprudence of acclimatization societies
can only be estimated in thousands OF
millions of dollars. Rabbits, introduced
from England for purposes OF sport,
have laid waste the country, destroying
the crops and almost annihilating the
sheep farming industry. Poisoning and
shooting, the artificial propagation OF
diseases among them, wholesale canning
of rabbit meat and the expectation of
skins and furs have had small effect in
diminishing their numbers. Ferrets.
introduced to attack them, have In their
turn proved a nuisance, devouring shs
farmers chickens. In like manner the
owls imported to gobble the sparrows
have exhibited preference for the meat
of domestic fowls. Foxes, brought
across the seas by sportsmen, have multi
piled greatly and are proving q bane.
Even humble bess, fetched for the pur-
pose of fertilizing clover, which depends
upon their agency in this regard, threaten
to become so numerous as to consume all
the honey which the honey bees would
otherwise have an opportunity to collect.
Taking all these things into view the
Government of the United States is in
cEned to disapprove of the importation
into this country of domestic animals
without its own authoritative superin-
tendence. Uncle Sam will fetch the
mongoose and will keep an eye upon it
for while, so that, if it should prove
obnoxious, it can be promptly EXTERN
mated by concerted measures. Recently
the Department of Agriculture has gone
to some extent into the business of pro-
curing parasites from abroad to feed
upon and thus destroy other bugs which
are harmful. The most notable case OF
this was the introduction of the
."vedalia" bug from Australia, which has
saved the orange industry of California
by preying on the scale insect that
threatened to wipe out orange culture al
togethe, in that State. In the nature of
things it is impossible to avoid the i'm
portation of many Objectionable
creatures through accident. By SUCH
means rats and mice were brought tc
America. Similarly, pestiferous insects
come over in the shape of cocoons and
eggs attached to cuttings and seedlings
ef plants, and pretty nearly all of the
most injurious foreign weeds have been
introduced in like manner to our SOIL
Washington Star.

The Music of Nature.

The bass of thunder is considerably
lower than the lowest sound produced in
an orchestra-below the zero of music,
we may call it, at which all positive ap-
prehension of musical sound ceases, and
our senses are merely conscious of roar.
In observing the music OF thunder, our
attention, however, may be most profit.
ably directed to the expression rather
than to the notes. The musical dim
inuendo is more perfectly represented by
thunder than by any other form of sound
in nature. After the first clap is over,
the ear will pursue with pleasure the
rolling away and gradual fainting of the
peal, until at immeasurable distance it
sinks into silence.
The melody of rain dancing on the
stones, or pelting down in its first drops
on the dry soil of forest or hearth, is
aspecies of sound which the art of music
has yet to initiate, if it would complete
its at present very incomplete list of IN
struments. The Mexicans had some
rattles made of very peculiar clay, with
pipes inside, which wre intended to rep.
resent this sound. Certain tribes of the
North American Indians have been simi-
larly fascinated by the loud plash of
water, to tie beauty of which we have
alluded before. They have instruments
constructed accordingly with view to
to reproduce this sound. Large buffalo
hides are filled with water and sewn up
in the manner of wine bags. Drum
sticks of cork, or with their heads COW
cred by very fine gum, are welded by
the player, and the gentle and monoto-
nous plash of water is produced by the
drumstick striking softly on the skin.
The natives will sit and listen to these
instruments for hours.
Certain tribes on the Amazon have in
similar way been fascinated by the music
of the waterfall. Musical instruments
were found in use among them consist
ing of a complicated mechanism by
which water was poured from one bowl
into another, in imitation of the cascade,
and then returned by the receiving bowl
into the vessel which had poured it; 80
that by repetition of this mechanism
constant murmur of cascade could be
kept up so long as the audience desired
or the player was able to perform it.
Good Words.
