Putting Wolves to Death by Torture.

One use of the whalcbone to which
the Eskimos put it, and one case of
which came under my personal obscrva-
ton. must not allow to pass unnoticed
Whenever wolves have been unusually
predatory, have DESTROYED favorite dog
or SO, or dug up n cache of reindeer
meat just when it was needed, or in any
way have aroused the ire of the Iuuit
hunter, he takes n strip of whalebonc
about the size Of those used in corsets
wraps IT up into compact helical mass
like watch spring, having previously
sharpencd both ends, then ties it to-
gother with reindeer sincw and plastcrs
it with II compound of blood and grease,
which is allowed TO freeze and forms q
binding cement sufficiently strong to
hold the sincw string at every second or
third turn. This, with lot of similar
looking bats Of meat and blubber, is
scattered over the SHOW or ground. and
the hungry wolf devours it along with
the Others, and when it is thawed out
by the warmth of his stomach it elon-
gates and has the we'll known effect of
whalebonc OH the system, but having
the military advantage Of interior lines
its effects are more rapid, killing the
poor wolf, with the most horrible
agonies, in Il couple of days.-From an

A CANADIAN TWILIGHT.

Tho white mists gather on marsh and fen,
And down by the rivers edge
Tho tide is tapping the fibrous grass,
And the snarls of sea green sedge.
Away in the west the sunset glow
Fades out of the cold gray sky,
And up from tho reeds that bend and
quake,
Comes the red nccked looms weird cry,
Observation-Disclosures whi-oo - who-wL
whi-oo-who-wi!"
Tho fisher bo1ts In the lonely bay
Lie anchored serene and still.
A red light CLEANS like far faint star
From the dim crest of the hill.
The wind through tho high limbed poplar
trees
Is sweet as come quaint old tune,
Yet sadder, swceter than grooming wind.
Pipes the single red neckcd loon,
AOh-oo-whi-oo-who-w wh-oo - who-wi
whi-oo-who-wir
From shadowlcss heights the night crceps
down
And muf1lcs tho sounding shore,
Tho still white boats CLEAN spectral and
thin,
And the red light shows no more.
Yet over across the darkcning world
Crceps the rivers monotone,
And the pcnsive, plnintivc murmuring
OF the red necked loon alone,
Oh-oo-whi-oo- who-wi, whi-oo = who-wt,
whi-oo-who-wi!'

Sewage In Germany.

The claim is made for Germany Of
having the most complete and success
full system of sewage disposal of any
country on the continent of Europe In
Berlin, where the features of this sys-
TEN are SO perfectly represented, the
drains from the houses receive both the
ralnwater, the refuse water from the
kitchen, etc, and the contents of the
water closets, conducting them to an
arrangement of radial sewers, through
which. by n natural fall. they pass to Il

ranged that, before reaching them, it

Tariff of Wives.

In the earliest times of purchase "a
woman was bartcrcd for useful goods OF
for services rendered to Ter father In
this latter way Jacob purchased Rachel
and her sister Leah. This was ii Bcena
marriage, where Il man, as in Genesis,
leaves his father and his mother and
cleavcs unto his wife, and they become
one flesh or kin-thc womans The
price of IL bride in British Columbia and
Vancouver island varies from ego to
$40 worth OF articles. In Oregon Ill
Indian gives for her horses blankets or
buffalo robes; i'll California, shell money
or horses; in Africa, cattle.
A poor Damara will sell u daughter
for COW. y richer Kaffir expects from
three TO 30. With the Banyai, if moth
ing be given, her family claim her chill
dren. In Uganda where no marriage
recently existed, she may be obtained for
half dozen needles, or u coat, or pair
of shoes. An ordinary price is box of
percussion caps In other parts goat
or Il couple of bucllskins will buy II girl
Passing to Asia, we find her price is
sometimes . to 30 rublcs, OF at others q
CARLOAD of wood or hay. a princess
may be purchased for 1900 rubles.
In Tartary IL woman can he obtained

her equivalent is whales tooth or

where are eloquent testimony to the lit

is usually married while child, and

The Virtue of Big Sleeves.

Why do theswomen wear big sleeves?' 1t
isn't for looks after all. They are not
quite SO foolish as to have no method
in their madness, it is pleasant to state.
And what is this method? A young
lady revealed it the other day. She wore
blue outing dress with very full
sleeves, and inside those sleeves she had
whole weeks laundry, and the results
of whole days shopping, and nobody
would ever know that her big sleeves
were the best pockets that suffering
woman ever had. In fact the pocket
problem for women is.at last solved.
This idea was original with the above
young lady, who resides here, but she
has since learned that an out-of-town
friend claims it's invention. How do they
get into the sleeves? Why the way a
man gets intoshis inside coat pocket.
