OF the cutting power of the beavers
teeth Frank ii. Ristecn says in Rod
and Gun:
1.-The beaver is really sort of porta-
BILE pulp mill, grinding up most any
kind of wood that comes his way. L
once measured white birch tree, %
inches through, cut down by a beaver.
single beaver generally, if not al
ways, amputates the tree, and when it
comes down the whole family fall to
and have a regular frolic with the bark
and branches. A big beaver will bring
down a fair sized sapling, say three
inches through, in about two minutes
and large tree in about an hour.
"One of the queerest facts about the
beaver is the rapidity with which his
long, chiscl shaped teeth will recover
from an injury. l have known beavers
to break their teeth in biting a trap,
and when l caught them again ten
days afterward you couldn't see a sign
of the break. The teeth had grown out
to their former perfection in that short
period"

TO AVOID CONSUMPTION,
How the Spread of This Disease Mny
He Retarded.

How the Spread of This Disease Mny
he Retarded.
While consumption cannot be abso-
lutely prevented its progress and prey
alence can certainly be arrested by the
observance of Il few simple rules Some
of these are so obvious as to present no
difficulty, while others are matters of
education. OF the most obvious are the
following: The avoidance of the spit
ting habit, whether on the street, in
the cars, on board ferryboats or eXcur-
sion steamers or in any public place.
Unsuspected germs of tuberculosis Of
ten lie hidden in the matter eXpectorat-
ed, which, when dry, enter the lungs by
means of the nostrils or the mouth. If,
therefore, any one is obliged to spit. let
him do so into his handkerchief. When
spittoons are provided in saloons, of
fees and elsewhere, let them be well
cleansed and disnfected at least once
day.
Let care be taken to have all work
shops, stores and all establishments
where work of any sort is done by day
or by night ventilated thoroughly and
swept uduy anu tne uuSt frequently
laid during the day by sprinkling with
clean water into which some disin-
fectant should be poured. Let the cell
ings, walls and all the woodwork be
kept well busted and the floors, sur
bases, etc, scrubbed and disinfected at
least once n week. Disinfectants are
cheap, and for the above purposes one
of the most effective and most easily
procurable IS n solution of chloride of
lime
In private houses the same process
should be gone through at frequent in
tervals; all the bedding, pillows, etc,
should get as much airing and sunlight
as possible, the rugs and carpets should
be swept every day and the mats well
shaken or beaten every morning, but
not in such way as to scatter the dust
round the ncighbOrhood. The carpets
should be taken up and beaten at least
twice a year, and all should be subject
ed to constant light sprinkling with
some disinfectant that will not take
out the color nor stain the material.
Such disnfecton is zinc chloride So

DAWN AT VENICE.

One FURNISHED cloud first turned a Jagged prov;
The conscious water nestled deep among
Her murky gondolas that, bow bow,
Freighted with shadows at the molo swung.
Soon palace and canal paled into sight.
Painting watchers whose long vigil wanes
Till dawn's approach across the waves OF night
Flushed the blood in sleeping Venice's
veins.
Then up the dazzling steps that lead to God
One radiant sunbeam and a lone white dove
Santa Maria's holy threshold trod-
shrine of morning lit by light and love!
Loud warned the chime to mass o'er quay and
home,
Calling soft Hocks OF doves to meet the day
Mid sculptured saints and angels round the dome,
While market women followed in to pray.

zine.

CuriosIties of the Cacao Tree.

The cultivation of cacao, say: writer
in The Scientific American, is an invit-
Ing agricultural pursuit in Trinidad
and parts of Venezuela. The cacao tree
cannot withstand strong sunshine, and
the young plants have to be shaded by
banana or plantain trees and later,
when they attain their growth, by tall
trees known as ''immOrtelles," or the
mother of the cacao." These make n
kind of canopy over the entire planta-
ton. The fruit of the cacao tree is pod
resembling cucumber and growing on
the trunk or large branches, where it
'looks as though it were artificially at
tached." The seeds are like large. thick
lima beans imbedded in pulp. These
form the cacaO beans of commerce. The
processes of curing and drying require
much attention.

How to Keep Healthy.

If you do not accustom yourself to

How tn Make Moth Powder

You can prepare powder that while
performing the work of a sachet will
drive away the moth miller as well. If
small bags are filled with it and hung
among the contents of wardrobe they
will be reasonably safe. Mix together
six ounces of Florentine orris root and
one ounce touquin bean, cloves, mace,
nutmeg and cinnamon.

How to Make BaIsam Pillows,

In making up balsam pillows small
mixture of curled hair will be found of
distinct advantage. The hair keeps the
needles from packing and renders the
pillow more comfortable. The most
suitable covers for balsam pillows are
made of pongee or washable linens,
embroidered with suitable designs.

The New City Well.

The new we'll for the city is COM
pleted at depth of 800 feet with an
apparent abundant supply of water.
The we'll is inches in diameter at its
bottom, and when finished had astand
of water $50 feet. The test Of the wa
ter supply was quite satisfac tory. The
new pump for it was put in and work
ed 40 hours, pumping 100 gallons each
minute of the time without any ap-
parent difference in the depth of water
in the we'll. With this increased
watersupply should come an extension
of the water mains for the double
purpose Of protection against fires and
water rents to consumers. The water
from the new we'll will be submitted
for chemical analysis and if found
suitable for family use with the ex
tension the mains will find hundreds
of additional users.

brought out a big crowd, although the

was work of art, probably the joint
production of Miss Sims and Messrs

alone is sufficient guarantee that the
millinery productions are in the front
