the requisite number OF shares represented

The lroquois property had before the
consolidation took place, been purchased
by the KearsarSe for which they had
given 5000 shares and under this ar
rangement holders Of Iroquis stock will
have one share Of Osceola for every ten
shares held by them, which of course will
come out of the $4,000 shares OF the
Osceola set apart for the Kearsarge.

IL Water Never Froze.

The whole economy Of nature would
undergo a startling change if water
never froze. The world g clima ties would
be revolutionized The iosbound polar
seas would cease to exercise their chill
ing influences, and consequently the
currents Of the ocean might either cease
or be turned aside in different direc-
tons
Thus the gulf stream would seek 9TH
or shores than those Of Britain, and the
climate there might be subject to the
extremes Of heat and cold noticeable in
other countries Of the same latitude.
The icebound rivers of the north, not.
ably those of Russia and Siberia, would
be open for navigation, and Russia's
activity Is sea power and CONNER
cial nation might alter the whole world
of commerce
Canada would become another coun-
try altogether. An immense tract Of land
would be available for cultivating hardy
plants, and Greenland might be what
its name indicates The absence Of ice.
bergs off the coasts of Newfoundland
and Iceland would result in a much
warmer climate in those islands, where
now the crops often fail.
Ice, too, plays an important part in
the economy of nature. Thus, if water
never froze, snow, hail and boar frost
would cease. The loosening of soils and
the disintegrstion of rocks by the frost
and many other now vital effects would
be lost. In short, the absence Of ice
would be on the one hand an incalcul-
able disaster, Oh the other hand q great
boon. London Globe.

Everybody knows how cheerful it
makes a room look to have one or more
handsome rugs on the floor, whether the
