Wood in News Paper.

1t requires as much wood as is grown
upon an acre o fground to furnish the
raw material for sufficient paper to print
a Sunday edition of the ordinary New
York newspaper. So says Maine lum-
herman, after a careful and painstaking
calculation. This at first glance seems
incredible. 1t must, however, be remem-
bered that, to begin with. the bark of the
trees only is used, and also that this
small proportion is further reduced by
the immense amount of waste which the
various processes of paper making in
volve. In Maine the wood of the birch
after being stripped of its bark, is taken
to the mills and converted into the spools
and reels upon which our silk and cotton
thread is wound.

Prevalence of the Disease Due to
UncleanIfness and the Care
l~essness of the People.

Washington, Oct. 2S.-United States
Consul Victor E. Nelson, at Bergen,
Norway, has sent a report to the ma
rine hospital service in which he says
that the prevelance of leprosy in Den
mark must be imputed to the unclean-
illness and the ~grotesque carelessness
of the people on that island. He says
there are six leprosy patients there,
of whom four are in Copenhagen. In
Denmark leprosy does not belong to
those few diseases which are subject
ed to public treatment. Iceland has
its own leprosy law. At the Laugar-
noes hospital in Iceland, established
by the Odd Fellow order, there were
81 patients received during 1899, and
of these IS are now dead and only
two have been discharged as fully re-
covered. Relapses were usual in lep-
rosy cases. The death rate has been
fearfully high, which is somewhat off
set by the fact that that was the
first year of the hospitals work, and
the worst of Iceland's population first
were admitted. The report says that
DR.. Armareuer Hansen, of Bergen, has
found the leprosy bacillus, but it's
antagonist is not yet discovered. The
~Icelanders are declared to be incon-
siderately imprudent, the sick people
using the same beds, eating and drink
ing utensils as the healthy.
