An attempt is being made to grow
the Australian salt bush in the alkali
regions of Arizona. 1t is similar to
alfalfa. and makes an equally good
food for stock. If the experiment is
successful it will result in the reclama-

their shape, but this was a desperate
way and led the poor woman oto @
prison.
"A recent lecturer says: Fewer
women commit suicide than men.
This is because woman makes less pro-
test against her circumstances of life,
has endurance under its calami-

she protest less and endure more? Is
it merely a matter of habit?

A NATURAL LEE BELT.

. Man.
DR.. Schneider-Preiswerk, in Basic,
has discovered u novel means of saving
| life in marine accidents, which, If gen.
orally used, will probably lessen great
ly the number of lives lost by such acct
dents.
His invention has been pronounced
very important by the French Academy
OF Sciences, which in M of their last
meetings listened very attentively to
a lecture by DR.. Lanyeraux upon the
new invention. The inventor does away
with all artificial belts and other float
ing appliances; he proposes to initiate
the cellular texture beneath the human
skin on the breast, which. IL filed with
air, forms a natural pneumatic belt, by
the aid OF which one may not only float
himself but even support another body.
The idea is said to be perfectly prac-
ticable. 1t has been proved that a mar
Weighing 100 pounds, whose specific
weight is between los and Ito, whose
head may weigh seven pounds, needs
only about 200 cubic inches of air with

head put of the water. This amount
of air is easilysinserted into this hollow

Schneider, which consists of q hollow
needle, o thin rubber hose Is inches
long, into which this needle is inserted.
A little aseptic cotton placed into the
open end of the rubber hose is all that
is necessary. The skin is simply raised,
the hollow needle introduced into it
and then the other end of the rubber
hose is taken into the mouth and the
mans own breath blown into 1t. Two
deep respirations, which are blown
into each aide of the breast, will be suf-
hcient to float a man, however heavy,

a knife of assassination lifted it is our
dutv to ward off the blade.
Wherever men are prosecuted for
their religion it, is our duty to break
that arm of power, whether it be
thrust forth from a Protestant church
or u Catholic cathedral or q Jewish
synagogue OF a mosque of Islam. We
all recognize the right on a small
scale. If, going down the road, we
find a ruffian m~altreating a child, or O
human brute insulting a woman, we
take a hand in the contest if we are
not towards, and though we be
slight in personal presence, because
OF our indignation we come to weigh
about twenty tons, and the harder
we punish the villain the louder our
conscience applauds us. In such cases
we do not keep our hands in our pock-
cts, arguing that if we interfere with
the brute the brute might think he
had a right to interfere with us, and so
jeopardize the Monroe doctrine. The
fact is that the persecution of the Ar
meuians by h Turks must be stopped,
or God Almighty will curse all Christ
endom for for it's damnable indiffer-
ence and apathy. But the trumpet of
Resurrection is about to sound
for Armenia. Did l say in opening
THAT on one of the peaks of Armenia,
this very Armenia of which we
speak, in Noah's time the ark landed,
according to the myth, as some think,
mt according to Gods ''say-so,'' as l
Low, and that it was after q long
storm of 40 days and 40 nights, called
THE deluge, and that afterward a dove
went forth from the ark and returned
with an Olive leaf in her beak? Even,
so nowhere is another ark being
tiewHched, but this one goes sailing, not
over a deluge of water, but a deluge of
blood-the ark of American sympathy
of kindness and peace, to find the olive
leaf of returning prosperity, while all
the mountains of Moslem prejudice,
oppression and cruelty shall stand Is
cubits under. Meanwhile, we would
like to gather all the dying groans of
all the so, 900 victims of Mohammedan
oppression and intone them into one
prayer that would move the earth and
the heayens, hundreds of millions of
Christian voices, American and Euro
pean, crying out, 20, God. Most HIGH
Spare Thy children. With man
date from the throne hurl back
upon their launches the horses
of Che Kurdish cavalry. Stop the
rivers of blood. With the earthquakes
of Thy wrath shake the foundations of
the palaces of the sultan. Move all
nations of Europe to command cessa-
ton of cruelties. If need be, let the
warships of acivilized nations boom
their indignation. Let the crescent go
down before the cross, and the Mighty
