HOW TO USE TOBACCO.

Medical Record: The Royal Academy Of Belgium gives the following advice to smokers:
 Do not use moist tobacco since nicotine then escapes with the vapoI- snd is not decomposed.
 Do not smoke either while fasting or a short time before meals
 When smoking cigars or cigarettes always use Sn amber, meerschaun horn. or cherry holder.
 Nicotine vapor.zes at 259 degrees. and the portion of it which is not decom posed in the center is attracted toward the tip, and accumulates there; it is. therefore. prudent to throw away the last quarter of a cigar.
 Do not smoke a pipe which has a short stem.
 Of all methods of smoking the cigarette is the least offensive.

Two days later Albert followed him

Scarcity of Tin Ore.

The scarcity Of tin ore In the world
Is pointed out by Geologist b. G. skert-
chley, of Australia, In a published mon
ograph. He shows that while known
gold fields cover 100000 square miles
of the earth's surface, the located tin
fields have an area Of only 1880
square miles. The seven tin districts of
Europe produce about $500 tons year.
ly, with 5000 tons Of this credited to
the Cornwall mines. Asia has two tin
districts: Human, in China, said by some
to yield 10000 to 10000 tons annually.
but proven to yield less than $500 tons
per year; and the tin mines of the
Straits Settlements and adjacent terri
tory, the richest In the world, yielding
$4,000 tons yearly. Africa has no
known tin mines; North America has
no paying mines; South America mines
less than 1000 tons per year In Bolivia.
and Peru, and Australia contributes
about 5000 tons year.

ANGLERS SONG.

Away, away, to the brookside green,
In the mornings earliest flush,
To the purling brook where the alders
lean
Gracefully Ger the waters rush,
And the golden sun. with its many -hued
sheen,
Makes the tinted waYelets blush.
The Lakewood rod, with its supple tip,
Is sound and strong as a pine;
But. arching, il bends with dainty dip
When the brook trout strains the line,
And the spray flies high when the hsh ;
lip
Is pierced by the hooks sharp tine.
The tackles strong and the waters right
so there's chance for luck to-day;
With the wind in the south and the sun
not bright.
Our creels will surely weigh,
Ere with weary feet, by the gloaminss
light,
Homeward, we wend our way.
And where the messy bank is sprayed
BY the waters roaring fall,
Meath the slender birches' pickering
shade.
Well rest and thankful, recall
That, Of sports the Fates for men have
made,
Anglings the best of all.
