The Nile has a fall of but six inches to
the thousand miles! The overflow COM
mences in June every year and continues
until August, attaining an elevation Of
from twenty-fOur to twenty-siX feet above
low water marx, and flowing through the
VALLEY of Egypt" in a turbulent body
twelve miles wide. During the last
thousand years there has been but one
sudden rise of the Nile, that of 1929, when
10000 people were drowned. After the
waters recede each year the eXhalations
from the mud are simply intolerable to al,
except natives.
This mud deposit adds about eight inches
to the soil every century, and throws a
muddy embankment from twelve to six
teen feet into the sea every year This be-
ing the case it is plain hat the mouth of
the river is thousands of feet farther north
now than it was in the time of the Ptole.
mics, and it is only aquestiOn of time when
the sediment will make a dam entirely
across the Mediterranean sea.-St. Louis

Considering the good services he renders

some countries-a corruption of the old
English name "moldwarpS, a tbrower up

and hunted out so mercilessly. True it is
that he Spoils the appearance Of some of

will elsewhere.
The cIiet objection of course to those

even this need not lead to the wholesale
destruction in other places Of one of the

the young Of the privileged robin red

he will not spare either--in fact, no small

He, too, however has his enemies among
the birds of prey; these will watch for him
AS he throws up his hillocks of fine earth

way, sheep thrive especially well on pas

grass that grows upon the hillocks suits
them perfectly. And the small farmer has
