ant odors and a great deal of work for
the sexton to do " gathering up and

insects escape the poison. 1t has been
discovered that the appetite OF the bat
coupled with its powerful darkness

Hodge, of Clark university, found by
experimenting with bats that they ate
everything from spider to poly

by representative of the Church
Economist DIR. Hodge ,old,of his expert
ments at Clark, and how churches
might profitably domesticate these ami
mails. His attention was called to bats
into apples and other kinds of fruit.
He said:
I'm an orchard near my home found
nine of the grubs of this insect in a
minute. | went TO another orchard
near by and found only four of the
grubs in an hours time. In the barn
there We're nearly 100 bats The owner
of the c~chard near by told me that
his apples We're always free from
worms.
81 took a dozen bats home with me
and installed them in the parlor. They
made their home in the folds at the
top of the window draperies AT first
they were wild when anyone ap-
preached them. but in time they became
tame. They never however, allowed
themselves to be handled. At night,
and even during the day, they would fly
about ths room while persons were
present,
"One evening | released several nest
fuls of night-hying insects. Not bug
remained in the morning, One bat de
voured, while l counted, 6s flies In
short time there was not fly in the
house, not n cobweb on the walls"
Bats frequent many churches, and It
is found that they keep the walls free
from cobwebs, and the absence of other
insects is noted, DR.. Hodge suggests
the dome sticating OF these animals in
churches where roosts can be provid-
ed for them, so that during the sery-
ices they can be Gagged up, Insects of
every description constitute the food
for them. They could be allowed to be

A substitute for rubber is now being
made from corn, and is said to possess
all the good qualities of the Para article.
The artificial product is taken from the
oil extracted from the corn, which is
condensed, mixed with certain pro-
portion of pure rubber and then vul-
canized.
Queensland is inauguratfng depar-
ture in the fruit trade. 1t has been
found that dried bananas are an excel
lent substitute for raisins in puddings,
and an enterprising firm in that place
mas sent a consignment of bananas To
England, where il is expected a market
can be opened. If the venture is a sue
cess we may find American grocers pre-
vailing on their customers to take dried
bananas instead of the succulent raisin.
Aluminium is now worked on a large
scale for all sorts of industrial purposes
and has taken its place as one of the five
or six commercial metals of the world.

aluminium to mold of steel or brass
insures absolutely solid castings.
The liver has long been recognized as
powerful annihilator of poisons. The
digestive system of animals produces
ptomaines which would be deadly in
their effects except for the work OF
the liver. And now the bite of animals
has been tried as direct antidote TO
snake venom with success. 1t was
mixed with the venom, and the mixture
was injected into the circulatory sys-
TEN of rabbits. The bile of snakes was
found most effective against their own
venom. 1t is another instance of the
antidote being found in company with
the poison.
The American and Canadian sawmills
have discovered that the sawdust which

themselves of as a worthless encum-
brancs is worth some eight pounds per

vented a process of extracting gas from
ths sawdust, adequate to supply city
like Ottawa with light and heat at ten
cents per thousand feet. This is
