"Ey'ry Month" For June.

Some surprising facts are given in
Ev'ry Month for June about the great
transatlantic steamships. They
have often been written about from
the viewpoint of the Captain and
passenger but in this article we look
through the eyes of the Chief Stew

in a matter of fact manner. about the
consumption of edibles and the man

We Guess Not.

According to the News-Tribune In
the following paragraph taken from
Mondays paper, the miners OF thls
and the Mesaba range are fools. we
do not believe word of the article
and was only written for advertising
purposes. The scale of $3.50 day IN
Idaho is comparable to about Sl.oo a
day in Ely and it does not STAND TO
reason that men getting from sl.o5 TO
$500 a day in Ely would quit their
work to accept $3.50 in the Couer
d'Alene district and then run chances
of having to fight for their jobs. NO,
the Vermilion miners are not "scabs
nor fools. The Tribune says:
"A large number Of miners from
the Vermilion and Mesaba ranges
have responded to the advertisement
that recently appeared in the News
Tribune. calling for miners to go tt
the Couer d'Alene district to engage
in work at the silver and lead mines
of that great district, They write
Employment Agent White asking To-
full particulars, and he says he ha
been kept busy writing letters ans
swering their inquiries. The mer
are attracted by the offer Of $3.50
day and with the guaranty Of work al
that scale all the year. 1t is thought
$50 or 200 miners will be taken from
the two ranges to the great silver ore
district as result of this effort tt
attract Minnesota miners to take the
places of the men that have been ar
rested there by the United States
troops"

LIVING IN A SUN BOX.
A New Au.traIian Institution for
the Treatment of Com
sumption.

In two Australian towns away up in
the mountains there are now institu-
tions for the treatment of consumption
by the new method" which calls for
little beside fresh air and food. The
'sun box" which the Australian doc
tors consider essential, is described by
the Melbourne Argus as frame struc-
ture, open at the top, about six by ten
feet in size.
"Why, 1 lived in a sun box for years
when L first came to the country, but
we used TO call it hut in those days."
some readers will be ready to eXclaim.
There is this difference, however, be-
tween hut and sun box, that the
former is a fixture, unless a bush fire
OF a hurricane comes along, whereas a
sun box should be constructed on a
pivot, or, failing that, on wheels, so
that its front may be readily turned
away from the wind. The reason is
that while fresh, pure air and sunlight
mean renewed health to the consump-
tive patient, the wind is injurious.
IL you have no sun boxes, the patient
must be taken indoors whenever the
wind blows, but, given your sun box to
present its back to the wind, no matter
what quarter it comes from, and the
patient may remain in it all day.
In each of these boxes two or three
patients are placed on mattresses, and
there they lie all day long and drink il
the pure mountain air. If they are weak
their food is taken to them, otherwis,
they get it in the home.
Photographs show the treatment be
ing carried out right among the CLEAN
ing mountain snows-with the con
valescent patients engaged in snow
balling!

Talking about bishops, the other
afternoon a distinguished, stately man,
clad in the garb of a minister, was over
at the fish commission spending half
hour in watching the gyrations of the
specimens in the tank, says the Wash
ington Post. One of the scientists of
the institution, a young ichthyologist,
whose papers on the subject of deep
sea investigation are attracting atten-
ton throughout the world, happened,
in passing by the tank, to notice the
minister. He studied the stately visitor
for a minute, and then walked up to
him.
"Am 1 right" he inquired, "in sup
posing you to be Right Rev. Lucien
Lee Kinsolving, Episcopal bishop of
Brazil?'
"You are" replied the stately man.

"Well, then, hello, 'BloolSer!' said
the scientist, jovially, holding out his
hand.

THE PRICE OF MEAT.

The retailers are advancing the price
of meat because the wholesalers have
done so, and the wholesalers point to
the action of the great beef packers in
Chicago to justify their marking up OF
prices. These great packers in turn
are still advancing their quotations
and they coolly say that there is no
prospect of a return to lower prices
but that further advances may be ex-
pected. Meanwhile the supply Of cat
tie from the great ranches is reported
larger than ever, and we hear of nc
