Coa1 Mines and Health.

However much sympathy the exist
ence of the workers in coal pits may
evoke from us, yet, says the Hospital,
the actual result Of the life on the ply
steal welfare of the miners is by no
means such as to warrant any serious
commiseration at our hands. Indeed
if one may Judge from the physique of
the underground toilers of the Black
Country they present an appearance
more provocative of envy than of pity.
Disease is no more demolishing in its
raids among them as p class than it is
among the agriculturists and laborers'
If one can be guided by statistics, the
coal dust atmosphere in which their
life is passed is no element of any serl-
Gus evil to them; it may not be pleas
ant, but it is not unhealthy indeed,
the actual death rate of those miners If
not abnoEpally high, even when it in
| cludes the fatal wholesale disasters
| which occur from time to time in the
pits. However much aso the pro
motors of the coal strikes may
| have to substantiate their theories the
evil of any extreme insanltary con
| dition of the workers themselves below
ground cannot in any fairness be in
| cluded.

The Arabian Mare.

The most marked equine distinction
between the African and Asiatic Arabs
is that the latter ride mares, while the
former use stations. I have reason to
believe that far out on the Libyan
Desert proper the anne rule as to
mares prevails. But IN the edge of
the desert the stallion is preferred.
Among the Syrian Bedouins the re-
verse is the rule. The mare is the
darling of the sheik, the pet of the
family. She is treated as a child far
better, really, than the children. The
most perfect of the stations are kept,
the rest are sent into the cities for
sale. This accounts for the fact that
the traveller sees only stations. The
price paid for q good average four
vear-old horse delivered in Damascus
or Jerusalem runs from thirty to fifty
dollars; a fine horse costs seventy to
one hundred dollars there is no price
put on a sumner; you must negotiate

would for a wife,
The high-bred Arabian Desert mares
are always kept in condition. They
are thin, and their naturally small
frame makes them appear more SO.
stYou raise buffaloes, not horses, an
Arab of the desert will say to the
owner of a fine Wel1-rounded stallion.
The splendid beauty of the Arabian
as we understand it is to him q de-
fusion. He has but one test-~race,
and the speed and endurance which

Hints to Ocean Yoyagers.

persons intending to cross the
ocean," writes a doctor, SHOULD for
several weeks before embarking, take
daily exercise in the open air to get
the general system in a good condition.
To the same end they should eat q
moderate quantity of plain food, es-
pecially avoiding what is heavy, greasy
or constipating. Some tourists are
never seasick so long as they lie on
their backs and keep their eyes closed.
The passenger who is seasick should
remain in his berth until nine or ten
o'clock in the morning, and have the
steward bring him what little food he
takes. He should not 60 to the table
in the cabin until all symptoms Of sea-
sickness have left him, as the very
sight and odor of the rich food will
surely make him worse. After vomit-
ing, the patient should drink a cup OF
hot water in which there is pinch OF
soda, and it is all the better If this is
elected, as it clears the stomach Of bile
and mucus. Ihave recently had strong
confirmation of my belief in the bene.
fits of a dry diet. A lady told me that
when she last crossed the ocean one OF
the members of her party had some
popcorn. It was eaten with much
relish, and with the effect Of relieving
every member of the party who were
seasick. Lime or lemon Juice, in water
without sugar. should be taken several
times a day, both before sailing and
during the voyage, for it's action on
! the liver and al an aid to digestion,
which has been weakened by losses Of
the gastric juice. When the patient
begins to go to the table he should
avoid pastry, fat meats and all rich
food; and after eating he should lie
fat on his back for half an hour, OF
until digestion is we'll begun. New

Raising Foxes in Alaska.

For the purpose of p~erpetuating the
fast vanishing fur supply Of Alaska
certain enterprising persons have gone
into the business of breeding blue and
black foxes on uninhabited islands
along that coast. When the seals have
been finally exterminated the world
may still look to that region for some
of the most valuable and beautiful
pelts known.
The smeda Propagating Company
has recently stocked & number of ISL
ands with foxes and the investment
is beginning to yield handsome re-
turns. The lands thus employed are
valueless for anything else, being
wholly barren. The breeding of blue
foxes has already been made very sue
cessful on one of the Pribylof Islands
that of St. George-in Boring See.
Of their increase ten thousand have
been killed and skinned for market.
One advantage of this industry is that
it involves no expense for the care or
feeding of the animals. All that is re
quired is to let loose a few pairs. Those
of them which are taken must at all
times be trapped and not shot. Thus
they become exceedingly tame i'll the
| course of q few generations. In the
same region there are red, white and
sscross'' foxes. Skins of the last named
variety, which is supposed to be a
| cross between the red and the black,
| are quoted at from SIS to $8 wholesale.
The white and red pelts are worth only
about 81 apiece, because, though they
are very beautiful, they arc much
more common and easily obtain
able. Black foxes are SO rare as to be
hard to procure for breeding purposes
