Care in the wording of a will is
something which can never safely be
neglected. A man who died lately in
New York left his house, with furni-
ture and contents" to his wife. Other
relatives were named for specific be-
quests or as residuary legatees The
inventory of the estate disclosed the
fact that among the contents" OF the
house was safe containing over a
hundred thousand dollars, besides
which there was nothing of account
either In the house or out of It. The
widow naturally claimed the safe with
all it contained, but the courts have
decided against her, on the ground that
the money cannot be considered as a
part Of the Contents of the house

Several species of animals unfortu-
nately have been exterminated because
OF their commercial value; it remains
to be seen il like fate will ever over
take any animal because it is con-
demned as pest. The rat is already
under the ban in many countries, and
concerted action, it is said, might put
an end to his tribe. The mosquito, an
insect. seems likely to be greatly re-
stricted in his field Of operations by
the new measures taken against him.
