SIXTH IN SIZE IN WORLD.
Hitherto Unknown River Discovered
in Canada

A hitherto unknown river. much larger
than the Ottawa and one its dscoverer
claims to be the sixth river Of the world in
size, has been discovered by DR.. Bell, assis-
tant director of the geological survey of
Canada, during trip to Hudson bay from
which he has Just returned to Canada. and
upon which he entered at the end of
last June. The route followed by him was
direct north from Ottawa across the height
Of land to Rupert's house on James BAY by
the most direct water course, the canoe route
being over 800 miles long. Five hundred
miles of DR.. Bells latest route, or the entire
distance from the height of land to James
bay, was through an altogether uneXplored
region, unknown to any one but the Indian
hunter.
Shortly after they crossed the hight Of
land the party followed an unknown river.
which gradually widened until il assumed
an enormous size. They followed this river
to James bay. The river had three large
branches one of which has its source north
of Three Rivers, another in the lake st.
John region, and the third near lake Mis-
tassim.
The new river, for which the Indians have
no name, is considerably over mile in aver
age width, and has expansions many miles in
width. 1t flows through low, level, clay
country, is very deep, and may, says DR..
Bell, be called new Nile of the north
Great stretches of the river, which is over 500
miles in length, would be navigable for
steamers.

There are two methods OF enliven-
ing old feathers, both of which give
satisfactory results. An old feather
bed was renovated by the following
method and was rs light aud fluffy as
one made from new feathers. For
pillows, sew up a sheet crosswise IN
bag form, leaving an open space Mt
one end the width Of the pillow. Rip
an end seam of the pillow and sew the
two together. Change the feathers
from the pillow into the bag, shaking
well To secure all the down, then rip
apart and sew up the bag. Wash IN
two strong, soapy waters and rinse
twice in clear water, draining the bag
well each time. Put the bag on the
grass in the sunshine, shake often aud
beat lightly rs the feathers dry, which
may take several DAYS. When per-
fectly dry they will be so nice and
light one will feel like giving them
new ticks.
Another way is to make a strong,
soapy water, empty the feathers from
the tick into it and wash them we'll
and wiring with the machine; repeat,
then rinse twice and wiring as dry as
possible. Spread them on perfectly
clean floor in an unoccupied room,
stir, turn and whip them till dry. The
advantage of this way over the other
is that it can be done in winter as well
as in summer, but there must be fire
in the room if done in freezing wealth

Everybody Was Quiet.

The recent Indian uprising IN
Wyoming recalls to mind an incident
of similar uprising in Idaho back IN
the seventies.
A report reached army headquarters
that the Indians had swarmed down
on "A little village and murdered every
inhabitant. 4 second lieutenant who
had Just received his commission was
dispatched to the scene to ascertain
the authenticity Of the rumor. a few
hours after his arrival in the village
he sent this dispatch to the command
ing officer:
Everybody is quiet here"
Whereupon the commanding officer
replied:
"Your report is unintelligible. We
have it from responsible source that
Indians have massacred every inhabi-
tant.
The lieutenant answered:
Report Is correct Everybody has
been massacred. Everybody is quiet.

Eating Neat Raw.

The well-knOwn favor with which
Englishmen regard UNDERGONE beef
brings TO notice a curious habit which
"a said TO be on the increase IN Lon.
don, that OF eating meat raw, or near
ly 50. The habit started from a be.
lief that it was conducive to health.
or late years there has been a great
run on the gravy OF juice expressed
from raw beef by the latter being
squeezed into pulp; but, quite apart
from this, many regular customers
buy the finest cuts with a special view
TO eating the latter raw, each customer
having an earnest belief that he bene-
fits in health from the practice. In
most cases IL is more a matter of
health than of actual taste. There
are two remarkable points about raw
meat eating, one of them being that a
great many butchers themselves con-
stantly cut prime bits off and chew
them.
The other point is that a great
many people, who do not ut home eat
in raw state the meat that they buy,
judge the quality when buying by
chewing bit of raw wheat, just as they
might taste of butter or cheese. A
celebrated London barrister eats guam
titles of the best steak finely minced
with salad, and in n great many other
cases the meat is cut into very slim
shreds and made into sandwiches, with
seasoning added. Restaurant-keepers
say that the chief call is for meat very
much under-done, but there are great
numbers of faddy people who eat meat
absolutely raw.-Hartford Times.

well written history of the Church,
which will be continued in subsequent

concerned, we have no doubt that the
publication of the Bulletin is solely a
labor of love for at the low price of %
cents they can hardly hope to make
more than actual expenses. The enter

On last Friday night, the 3Ist inst,
the public had the privilege of attend
ing the closing exercises of the Oak
Grove School, taught by Miss Minnie
Ocheltree. The program was lengthy,
interesting and instructive, consuming
about two hours, during which the audi
ence listened attentively. The excellent
rendition of all the pieces and a few in
particular show the intelligence of the
pupils and reflect honor and credit on
their teacher. 1t demonstrates the
fact that it is far from essential to
study between brick walls or in city or
town in order to make a success for
the free will displayed at an humble
country school, from whence springs
the talent of our country, can truly
eclipse them all. Patrons and visitors
all unite in cOngratulating the teacher
and pupils on their work. II. &C.
