A Colony of Outlaws.

Writers of fiction have frequently pictured the idea of an unknown trop- ical paradise turned into a general asylum for outlaws and criminals. In the Bonin isles, not far from Japan. such a refuge has actually been dis covered. Men of every nationality, who have made civilization too warm for themselves, having decamped to this ideal rendezvous, leaving the po lice to record the unsatisfactory re- suit of their investigations as gone abroad" No rates or taxes have to be paid, and government seems to be entirely dispensed with. The discovery was made by Japanese vessel which called at the isle. Tn future the aliens will have less freedom, and eonse- quently less happiness, for the Japa- nese dominion will have to be rec ognizd. Their dream is o7er-West- ern Morning News.

Irish Kieselghur.

At a recent meeting of the Dublin Royal society a paper was read by MT. Pollok on some large deposits of kieselghur which occur on the banks of the Bann, at the point where 1t emerges from Lough Neagh. Kiesel- ghur is used now for several industrial purposes, and although the deposit in question is apparently not suitable for making dynamite, yet it is of excep- tional purity and if found in quantity should soon find market It is stated to be in the highest degree probable that the whole bottom of the Lough Neagh is covered with similar deposit of diatomous earth, which, as is we'll known, is formed of the silicous re- mains of low forms of aquatic plants. Under the microscope the Bann de- posit is found to consist of little cubic box-shaped diatoms. ms.-London Chron- icIe.

YelnnitY of ProiectiIes.

Recent experiments with improved instruments for measuring the velocity of projectiles have shown that the speed goes on increasing after the mis- sile has left the mouth of the cannon. Leaving the muzzle with a velocity of about 1,474 feet in a second, a pro- jectile has been observed to increase its speed to about 1889 feet per sec ond within the first six feet. It is only after having travelled about twen- ty-fve yards that the projectile's ve- locity becomes reduced to the speed that it had on leaving the muzzle.

Egxpt,s Early InI,abItant..

Dr. W. M. Petrie's recent discoveries in Egypt prove conclusively that Egypt was. inhabited by men previous to 4000 B. C., the date which has hithA erto been the starting point of know history. Excavations between Nagads and Ballos show that some foreign race must have driven out the early inhabitants of the country, for in the thousands of graves that have been opened by pr. Petrie not single ob- ject of the usual Egyptian type has been fol,nd.

Novelties in Parasois.

II wish could read you Gladys letters
from Londonn' writes Edith Lawrence in
the June Ladies' Home journal. ''She
sends me descriptions of two new parasols
which l must tell you about. The first
one she saw when driving in Hyde Park.
1t was of frawn- colored silk, trimmed
with bands of ecru lace insertion and
large bows of satin ribbon of frawn color.
The stick, which was very long, was
made of pale green enameled wood. The
most original part of the whole thing was
a tiny little pocketbook which topped the
handle off. 1t consisted of round ball
of carved wood with cat eye in the
centre; when you press the cat's-eye the
pocketbook flew open. 1t was lined with
pale green leather. The other parasol
was made of different shades of red,
which she says is the most fashionable
color in London just now for street wear.
The cover was of red boiling cloth and
hand painted in bunches of red peoples of
a deeper shade. All around the edge
were eyelet holes, which are called by the
women in London peep holes. 1t seems
they like to hold their parasols down low
and see who is passing, through the eyelet
hOles''

An Atlantic Steamships Larder.

Zone tidy little refrigerator about six
feet wide and twice that depth is the but
terman's stall in this market under the
sea-" writes Helen C. Candee, in telling
OF housekeeping on an Ocean Steam
ship in the June Ladies' Home Journal.
Little tubs of butter are arranged on
shelves to the amount of five thousand
pounds, and in company with these are
twenty thousand eggs Twenty five hun
| dred quarts of milk and cream are stored
in a separate room, all having been sterl-
| lied. This market has room especially
for salt meats, and here are hams, bacon
and tongues to the amount of four thou
sand pounds. There are some articles of
food without which the epicure would be
| unhappy, and which must be alive when
| cooked. Chief among these are oysters,
| of which sixteen thousand are carried to
meet the wants of the passengers. CLANS
are only provided to the number of fifteen
hundred. HOLSTERS are not abundantly
supplied; seven hundred pounds is all the
storeroom shelters. This market in the
bottom of the ship contains, besides the
! things mentioned, fruits, green vegetables
and an enormous stock of groceries. The
latter is only limited by space, for grocer
les are not perishable goods and will keep
| from one voyage to another until used.
Tea and coffee are used in large amounts
about thirty-three pounds day of tea
and fifty pounds of coffee. Perishable
supplies are taken on board in proportion
to the number of passengers booked, and
anything of this kind which is left over
when the ship reaches port is eaten by
the crew."

CARE OF LAMPS.

1t is not necessary to enlarge upon the
discomforts caused by lamps, irregularly
filled, improperly cared for, redoent of
the fumes of kerosene and shedding but a
dim and irregular light. We have all stuff
cred under the int1iction and speak whereof
! we know from bitter experience. Good
lamps are cheap, and there is no excuse for
using one proven past the power of re-
demption. Even in houses lighted by
electricity or gas, the lamp has an es
tabllshed place on the library table, and
frequently in the dining room, and care
should be taken to see that it is always in
condition to fulfill the expectations that
center round it. The most essential thing
in securing a good light from lamp is
absolute cleanliness. The oil should
always be of the best high test and should
be kept in a close can, where dust can
not reach it. The fonts of the lamp, all
parts of the tubes that hold the wicks, and
the burners, should be kept clean. The
metal holders and burners require boiling
once week in water to which has been
added teaspoonful each OF salt and soda,
Tor heated metal gives out foul doors. A
small brush should be used to keep the
holes clear, and the burner and all parts
OF The lamp free from bits OF wicks and
NuSt. Inc scissors SnOulu Dc seldom
used; it is much better to rub off the wicks
with little soft paper. The wick must
never crowd the tube. If tight, pull out
two Or three threads lengthwise. The
wicks soon become clogged by the paratne
III the Oil, and if not in frequent use will
need to be taken out occasionally, washed,
boiled and dried If soaked in vinegar
and dried they will give clearer light.
All lamps should be wiped off and filed
daily. Keep the wick below the top of
the burner when not lighted, or the wick
will feed over through capillary attraction.
Turn up short distance when first lighted,
but never turn low and leave. When
extinguishing lamp Or oil stove turn the
wick down until it shows only a blue
flame, when the flame will flicker a short
time and then go out. This .precaution
prevents the unpleasant odor which
accompanies the blowing out of a lamp.
Chimneys may be cleaned with sponge,
soft cloth or paper, but never with bristles
or metal holder, as they leave scratches
and the chimney breaks. Chimneys may
be tempered by putting in cold water and
brought to boil, then allowed to cool in
the water. Dealers say they are sold SO

RHUB ARB.

Coming as it does when fresh, green edi-
bles are scarce, and yet very essential to
health, the garden rhubarb deserves more
patronage than is usually accorded it, 1t
would receive it, too, if housewives real
lied that its biting acidity can be easily
modified to an agreeable tartness, and
that the common method of serving it in a
two crust pie is the least wholesome way
in which it can be cooked. Baking i'm
parts a richer color and flavor to rhubarb
than stewing; but whichever way it is
cooked, it should first be covered with
boiling water and allowed to remain on
the back of the stove ten minutes. then
drained and cooked in fresh water. To
bake make rich syrup of boiling water
and sugar; pour over the fruit, cover and
set in hot oven; as soon as tender re-
move the cover and finish baking. Rhu-
barb should also be stewed in a little
syrup. Some persons are fond of rhubarb
cooked in maple syrup. Baked rhubarb
served very cold, is most appetizing
meat or other sauce If baked or stewed
rhubarb is to be used as filling for pies,
tarts turnovers, buildings or dumplings
it should be slightly thickened, as soon as
sufficiently cooked, before removing from
the fire, with little corn starch dissolved
in cold water
