1t has been discovered that it would
be possible to use the same calendars
every twenty years-when the dates
of the months fall on the same days
of the week-thereby avoiding the ex-
pense of five almanacs for the present
century. But here is something even
better than that. Those persons who
might be able to get hold of calendars
for the twelfth century would find the
days and dates coincident with the
present century. Again, those with a
frugal mind who have preserved the
almanacs of the nineteenth century
will avoid an outlay for calendars Of
the century commencing Jan. l. 2201,
as the dates for the hundred years fol-
lowing will be like those of the last
century.

ST, MARY'S ACADEMY,
Notre Dame, Indiana.

We call the attention of our readers
to the advertisement of st. Mary's
Academy, which appears in another
column of this paper. We do not need
to expatiate upon the scholastic advan-
tages of st. Mary's, for the catalogue
OF the school shows the scope of work
included in it's curriculum, which is
Of the same high standard as that of
Vassar and Bryn Mawr and is carried
out faithfully in the class rooms. We
simply emphasize the spirit of earnest
devotion which makes every teacher
of St. Mary's loyalty strive to develop
each young girl attendant there into
the truest, noblest, and most intelligent
womanhood. Every advantage of
equipment In the class rooms, labora-
tories and study rooms, every care in
the matter of food and clothing, and
exceptional excellence of climatic cor
ditions-all these features are found at
st. Mary's, in the perfection of develop
ment only to be obtained by the con-
secration of devoted lives to educa-
tional Christian work in a spot ia
yored by the Lord.

Whom HerrinKs We're Plenty.

In former days herring were so
abundant in Newfoundland waters
that the most wanton slaughter of
them was permitted without any re-
striction whatever. Seines were al
lowed to retain 1000 or 1000 barrels of
the fish until they perished, and then
the net was freed and the whole con-
tents fell to the bottom to pollute the
ocean for miles around. When a
poaching smack was captured the
herring 1t had on board were all
thrown into the sea, and frequently
boats when chased resorted to the
same means to get rid of discriminating
evidence. The fish then fetched only
fifty cents barrel Of 500 herring, OF
10 for cent; they sell now in Ameri-
can cities sometimes for five cents the
single fish. Such wanton waste gradu-
ally had it's effect, and now the colo
NAL fishing laws safeguard the indus
try more vigilantly, and fishermen of
all classes know better how to hus-
band their resources in this connec-
ton. Today herring bait usually
brings IS barrel, and sometimes
twice that, and the smuggler who
plans to land cargo at st. Pierre con-
tracts for $40 barrel before he
touches rope on his boat.

New Ideas in Stationery.

Colored note-paper has had long
struggle to win fashionable patronage,
for women of best taste persistently
rejected it in favor Of cream or ivory
white, but recently such lovely tints
have been set forth by exclusive
dealers in high-class stationery that
many have found them irresistible.
The palest green, the softest, coolest
blue, mauve, and delicate gray are
the most popular. The latest English
envelopes are long and narrow, and
the sealing wax used exactly matches
the shade Of the stationery. A pretty
wedding present, and a moderate one
in cost, is a box of stationery con-
tanning paper, cards. and envelopes
OF different sizes, and in one of the
new tones; the box also containing
sealing wax Of corresponding color,
seal bearing the BRIDES monogram,
and a silver-mounted pen-holder, blot

Cure for Mosquito Bites.

Professor DR.. Voges, the director of
the national board Of health at Bue-
nos Ayres, according to German pa
pers. has found a remedy for mosquito
bites. He states that he discovered it
by accident during his trip to Para
quay to study the pest. He had been
supplied with all sorts of remedies.
among them naphthalene, an article of
no value whatever against the pest.
but on using it for mosquito bites he
found it of surprising effect 1t neu-
tralizes the poison even when the spot
bitten is greatly inflamed If fresh
bites are rubbed with naphthalene no
swelling follows. The professor con-
siders naphthalene almost specific
against mosquito poison.

A RATHER ON HIS BREAST.
A Remarkable Fight Witnessed by
Prospector In Arizona.

|
Prospector In Arizona.
A rattler, king snake, and road
runner recently figured in a battle
part of which was waged on the breas
of Herbert Housland, prospector in
Arizona. The king snake is deadly
enemy of the ratt,er. The experience
of Housland was had in the Bradshaw
mountains. He, was guarding his
party's camp for the day and had lain
down to sleep when he was suddenly
aroused to find great rattler coiled
upon his breast
Il almost suffocated from fearing to
breathe lest should be bitten he
said. "The snake was greatly excited
and in minute l saw the cause. A
king snake was trying to excite the
rattler to combat, and my person was
the chosen battle ground. The king
snake had probably forced the rattler
to refuge upon my body, and follow
ing up his aggressive tactics was run
ming In circle around the rattler very
rapidly. He crossed my breast from
left to right and my thighs from righ-
to left, and within less than foot of
the rattler's body. The velocity o.
the snake was most wonderful 1t
seemed to be one continuous ring. and
part of the time could seemingly see
three or four rings at once. l made
a slight movement with my right foot
which attracted the rattler's attention
for an instant, and that was fatal to
him. At that one false movement of
his eyes, the king snake darted in
and seized the rattler by the throat,
close up to his head and began in
stantly to coil around his victim.
They rolled off me in their death
struggle and became one tangled mass
for ten minutes, when the rattler's
sounds died away gradually While
lay exhausted from my fright a road
runner darted out of bush and
grabbing the two snakes in his beak,
began to drag them away. The weight
was too great but he killed the king
snake by blow from his long bill,
and ran away as l arose. l threw the
two reptiles into the bushes, and there
the bird and his mate devoured them"

Jerry Cooper considers himself one

upon regaining himself he found that

Millionaire McKittrick, who, as all
California knows, is the king of the

said the cowboy, "can T draw $10?"
Mr.. McKittrick was about to refer the
man to the foreman, but, being good

said the cowboy; Il want you to get
me some truck in town. l want a

Charmed by the gall of his employe,
the millionaire took the commission.
He returned late at night loaded down
like Santa Claus, sought out the cow

"It cost only eight-fifty. Here's the

FOR A BEET COLONY.
Salvation Army to Start q Million Acre
One In Colorado

The Salvation Army is about to en-
bark in great commercial enterprise
which involves the colonization of a
tract of land in Colorado. Here will
be started a practically new industry
in that section-the raising of sugar
beets. While in a sense the scheme is
commercial rather than religious, Of
ficers of the army in New York think
they can do much good through the
enterprise. A large corporation has
bought up and procured options on
over 100000 acres of ground. The
Salvation Army will act as the agents
of this corporation in procuring and
guaranteeing the integrity of the colo
nists. Commander Booth Tucker, who
is now in Cleveland, will return to
New York soon. When he arrives
the plans for starting the work will be
laid before him for his approval. Di-
rectly that is obtained, Offices will be
opened on Fourteenth street, opposite
the present headquarters of the or
ganization. Staff Officer McPhee will
be put in charge. The reason that out
side offices will be established is that
the present charter of the army will
not admit of such an enterprise being
carried on at its headquarters. The
tract covers the greater part of three
counties-Kiowa, Bent and Prowers.
1t is skirted by the Arkansas river and
interested by irrigating canals, which
are fed from reservoirs having a ca
pacity of 3,57O, ,283, $50 cubic feet. 1t is
at Amity, Col, that fiourishing Sal
vationist colony is now established.
The new colonists will not be re-
quired to raise the sugar beets unless
they SO elect. If they do, the sugar re-
fining company will pay them the mar
ket value. 1t is understood that many
wealthy capitalists of Colorado are be-
hind the plan.-New York Mail and
Express.

Incompetent Dentists Liable to Damages

a New York tribunal held that ply
sician was liable for unskillful or neg

the court of appeals of that state has
rendered a decision holding car
poration liable for unskillful dental
work. This corporation, according to
the complaint, represented that 1t car
ried on the practice of dentistry in con-
nection with it's other departments.
The plaintiff, a woman, having under
gone treatment, sued for alleged re-
sultant injury and received verdict.
Apparently the defence of the corpora
ton was that the dental business was
not, in fact, carried on by it, but was
owned by the dentist. But the court
held that the company having held it.

partment and the plaintiff having been
ignorant of the fact that the company
was not the real owner of the dental
department, the corporation was
estopped from making such denial.
For, under the circumstances, the court
said that the plainrlti had right to
rely not only on the presumption that
the company would employ a skillful
dentist as it's servant, but also on the
fact that if that servant, the dentist,

nearing completion in Iowa four miles
west of Boone, is one of the largest in
the world, and the origin of its name
Is interesting. Twenty years ago. be-
tween Boone and Moingona, an engine
went through the bridge at the time of
a raging flood. From her widowed
mothers cottage near by a
maiden of sixteen years saw
the engines headlight disappear
in the raging torrent. Lighting
a lantern she went away through the
storm to Moingona, told of the disas-
ter, and saved passenger train from
following the Inflated engine to q
watery grave. The state OF Iowa gave
her medal for her bravery, her name
has been celebrated in poetry and
prose. and now 1t has been decided to
name this new vfaduct the Kate Shell

The figures now secured show that
the chance which the British soldiers
had of being killed in South Africa
amounted to more than 21a times the
risk they would have incurred in bar
racks in England. Thus stated, the
mortality seems small, but what must
be borne In mind is that during short
periods, say few hours at time dur
ing the war, almost every man has
to run risks many hundreds times as
great as those of ordinary life, and
that half hours brush with the en-
emy carries a concentrated danger
which would mean certain death to
every man concerned if it lasted TWEEN

pork and beans baked into a thin,
