A QUEENS CHARITY.
tortugals Sovereign Has Taken Gre'

rortugal's Sovereign Has Taken Great
 Interest in Hospitals.
 We hear less about Portugal than about Spain at any time, and of late have heard less than usual. The queen of Portugal is a sovereign deserving ? long mark for her interest in hospuals and hygiene, and also in the welfare of the children of poverty. At Aleantara she founded, in 1893, a dispensary Pc- culiarly for meeting the demands of childish inyalids, as pleasantly sit uated as possible and spaciously planned combining diet-kitehen. consultation rooms, surgical halls and much of the departmental work of hospital. Almost every day she her self goes to the establishment ana takes a personal share in the labors of charity-noW waiting in the kitchen distributions, and again assisting ih the surgery. Several we'll known wom- en of her court are equally practical The general charge of it is committed to religious crder, a fayorite of the queen s, but the eminent Portuguese physician Dr. Silva CarYalho. heads the staff of medical workers. In one year (18951 there were given in the build- ing, 8,559 consultations. 63.704 rations from the diet-kitchen, 32,5 521 bandages. 76,4S0 prescriptions and 470 vaccina- tions. The milk and vegetables are furnished gratis by the queen, and the medical supplies are also defrayed by her. Fifteen hundred babies were treated in one twelyemonth. It is said there is not any royal charity of the sort in Europe so efficiently managed, with the additional active cooperation of the founder.--Harpers Weekly.

OLIVES.

The olive IS one of the oldest -knoww fruits. It is noted by Pliny and ia fre- quently mentioned in the Bible. where 1t forms the basis of many parables and figures of speech.
 In Grecian mythology the olive tree occupies an important place and today the 'olive branch" is the world sym boI for peace, says the Scientific Amer lean. The olive tree itself is rather melancholy in appearance but the eye soon becomes accustomed to the tone which the olive trees gives to the Eand- scape. and in nearly all of the Mediter- ranean countries they are found almost everywhere.
 The kernel of the olive requires about two years to germinate natural iy, but it is found by mixing clay and other ingredients natures processes can be hastened so that it will ger minate and large olive tree near Nice is believed to be 1000 years old and is said to have yielded 500 pounds Of oil in a single year.
 In general the olive will flourish wherever the vines can be cultivated for wine-growing purposes. 1t will not bear temperature below q or 23 degrees Fahrenheit and in Europe it cannot he grown above 46 degrees lati- tude. The young plants and fruit ars very delicate, but the tree itself is quite tough. Naturally. in Italy, where the olive forms one of the principal agricultural products and contributes so largely to the wealth of the conn try, the trees are cultivated with ths greatest "are.

WHITE SLAVES,
Efforts Making to Stop the Cursed
 Traffic in Russia.


 St Petersburg Cor. New York Times In view of the International Congress to be held in London at the end of the present month for the dis cussion of the best measure to be taken for the prevention of the white slave" traffic, the NoHostt has lately been publishing detailed accounts of the manner in which this business is car rjed on in Russia The trade has de- teloped to q great extent in the past few years throughout Western Europe. but the town Of Jassy is it's center. The women are bought, particularly at Lelpsie, during the great annual fair. but It is the capital of 3Ioldayia, which Is the central point of the traffic, just as hhartoum was formerly the mar ket brace for the human merchandise imported from Abyssinia and Central Africa. From Jassy the merchandise IS directed to Russia and Turkey Next 10 Jassy Brussels has become the most important center for this business. The white slaves destined for Russia eoN4A>-At tbi9 oGuI +Q 4Nl5d oA GO 1i41el, where the wholesale merchants from St. Petersburg and Moscow meet to make their selections. These they transfer at once to the principal cities of the empire and to the remote prov, inces of Siberia. There was recently arrested in Odessa an agent of the principal Russian white slave" mer- chants, and at his residence a volumi- nous correspondence, with sub-agents at Jassy, Brussels, Riga and elsewhere, was found. Thanks to this edifying correspondence, the Russian police as- certained that white slave agencies ex- ist throughout Russia, in rural dis tricts as we'll as in the principal cities and towns. In some of these letters the sub-agents mentioned that they had exceptionally fine merchandise at a relatively low price, five parcels (sie) in all. Then there followed detailed description of the goods. The Odessa agent in question has been exiled to Siberia, where he will spend the next ten years From what I hear, the Rus sian government considers the white slave traffic as an international curse, which can only be successfully eradi- cated by the united efforts of all civil ized nations. It is we'll known that the czarina is herself deeply interested in this matter.

Nuts Like Cannon Balls.

It Is perhaps not generally known that the three cornered nuts called Brazil nuts grow in packed clusters enclosed in shells which are roughly spherical in form, and have somewhat the appearance of rusty cannon balls. In the tropical forests there is another nut-bearing plant which goes under the name of the cannon-ball tree. Ths nutshells are almost perfectly spherical and would readily be taken for cannon balls.

Req aCtiue in Rad

Reading Ia bed used to be objected to in the old days on the score of danger, and one of the first injunctions of hostess to hertguest was in refer enee to that prevalent but disquleting practice. But in these days, when electric light has removed the risk of fire, the question is one solely of it's benefit or harm to the prospective sleeper. The Medical Press and Cir cular is of the opinion that short course of some standard author may act as composing seGative, but works which contain extremes of wit, melo- drama, comedy, tragedy or philosophy should be avoided Like a good sup- per, the reading should be neither too heavy nor too stimulating. On the other hand, most physicians are of the opinion that bed should be kept as much as possible for sleep. A habit of reading before putting out the light and closing ones eyes is apt to grow and become a tyranny, and, like drugs the more you indulge in it the longer has the reading to be to have the de. sired effect It must be admitted. however, that the habit. to all but those fortunate beings who are asleep the moment their head touches the pillow, is very seductive, and that good many peoples most serious read ing is done at that time.-London Tele- graph.

M. still facing them, retreated at sharp trot, quite forgetful that behind him was a quick set brambly hedge shielding ditch, until he felt the blackthorn bayonets proding him behind.

Determined not to be scoIded again for want of implicit obedience, and ma- liciously enjoying their captains ludi- crous dilemma, the men bore solidly down upon him, forcing him through the brambles, and as he fell splash into the mud, with the bayonets within an inch of his nose, he at last shouted, Halt! Halt!'

OF Supervisors TO the condition of III,
iail in one respect. There is but one
stairway leading from small room in
rear OF the kitchen. II Ia fire should start
in the kitchen, which is not impos-
sible, there would be no way OF
reaching the prisoners, confined in
the cages above. They could not
be reached from the outside, as all
the windows are heavily barred. II
such an accident should occur at any
time, it would make the county respon-
sible for very heavy damages, and
would place the Board of Supervisors
in very embarrassing position. A well
secured door, leading iuto the residence
part OF The jail would remove the
danger.
