RICHEST NATION ON EARTH.
A New Commonwealth in the Antip-
Odes That Can Boast the
Distinction.

1t will surprise many to learn that
the new commonwealth of Australia
is the richest nation on the face of
the globe. There is not as much
wealth there in the aggregate as may
be found in some of the older coun-
tries, but the per capita possessions
of the Australians far exceed those of
other people in Europe or America.
The commonwealth is a continental is
land, rich in land fit for settlement and
industry. It's national prosperity is
dependent upon no single product, but
embraces pastoral, agricultural and
mining Industries in almost equal de-
gree, and to these are rapidly being
added manufactures.
Last year the total value of the prod
ucts of the colonies forming the Aus
tralian commonwealth amounted to
fully S55O,O00,0oo, OF which their pas
toral industries represented $50, OOO,-
600, their agricultural $4,000, 900,
their mineral products fully S1O0.0O0,-
900 and their manufacturing and 9TH
er industries the remaining $160,O0O,-
600. The wool alone from the 100000
600 sheep raised in 1900 was worth
$1oo, 100000
The mineral resources of Australia
cannot even be guessed at. In the last
4S years the country has produced
gold to the value of 81 500, GOO, 900, and
in the last 20 silver to the value of
10000. 900.
Diamonds are found in one district,
rubies in another. There is at least
one emerald mine in New South Wales,
and opals equal to any in the world
are found in Queensland, while the
pearl fisheries of the northwestern
coast produce a considerable portion
of the most valuable pearls of COM

CARING FOR FRESH FOOD.
the Keeping of PerishabIe
EntabIes.

Meats of all kinds, as soon as
brought from the market if not
cooked Immediately, should be placed
at once in the ice box. If it is to be
kept for day or two, it is best to
wrap it in wax paper and lay it close
to the ice. If wax paper is not handy,
wrap it first in cheese cloth, then in
paper, and place it near the ice. In
the country, where fresh meat is OBJ
tainable only once or twice a week,
and where there is no ice to keep it,
it may be placed in jar or bowl and
covered with sour milk, tightly Gov
cred with a lid or board, and set on
the cellar MOOR. It will keep thus in
good condition for three or four days,

piece of beef from the rump,
round or cross-rib may be covered
with vinegar and kept for whole
week. Such meat is generally used
for sour roast or beef la mode. An
other way to keep fresh meats in the
country is to brush the meat over
with salad oil, and then wrap it in
brown paper, and bury it two feet
deep in the ground. 1t will keep thus
in 9Dod condition for week or long
er. Game of all kinds may be kept
either in the ice-box or in sour milk
Ham and bacon should be wrapped
in paper and hung in a COOL dry
place. If poultry is drawn it is best
not to wash it, but simply to wipe it
dry inside, and place it on the ice.
If ice is not handy it may be rubbed
in and outside with a little salt,

dish on the cellar floor Covered with

WEALTH IN sAwDUsT.
Genius to Extract Some of It's
Valuable Products.

Scientific men have long been en-
gagged in the study of methods of util-
izing waste products, such as sewage,
garbage and many other things, for
merly thrown away as worthless.
After it is asecrtained just what these
materials contain that can be utilized,
ingenious men set their wits to work
to invent machinery and devise
processes by which the valuable COM
modities may be extracted. In this
way many million dollars worth of
oils, fertilizers and other useful sub
stances are now saved and the world
is SO much the richer.
great deal of sawdust has always
gone to waste, though many mills have
used it to supplement their fuel sup
ply. Chemical analysts have been at
work on the sawdust problem and it
has been shown clearly that it con-
tains very suseful elements that are
worth saving; and now machinery has
been invented to extract these ma
terials.
The experiments have proven that
1000 pounds of sawdust will yield
about 16O pounds of char which is
practically the same as charcoal and
equally serviceable; $50 pounds of
acids, 100 pounds of tar and quantity
of gases that have been tested for
heating and Illuminating and found to
be excellent for both purposes. While
the acids, tar and char are the prod
ucts particularly desired it is said the
gases are of commercial value.
A machine has been invented in
Montreal for the purpose of distilling
sawdust and obtaining the desired
products. Consul General Bittinger
writes that the machine treats about
1000 pounds of wet sawdust an hour.
AS Canada manufactures enormous
quantities of lumber it is expected
that the utilization of sawdust in that
country will be an important source
of valuable commodities.
There are 20 places in Europe where
oXalic acid is extracted from sawdust
In Scotland sawdust is used to make
fioorcioth, coarse wrapping paper and
millboard, which is kind of paste
board used by book makers in the
covers of books. Thus sawdust, once
thought to be good deal of nui-
sance, is beginning to be considered
quite useful article.-N. Y. Sun,

tually been choked to death by or
chids and climbing cacti.
Among the orchids I noted one diff
ferent from the rest, the leaves, sharp
lancehead shaped, growing all around
the root and radiating from it. From
the center or axis of the plant hung
long slender stem about one-eighth
of an inch thick by one-fourth inch
the water to depth of about four
inches.
81 at once went over to examine my
discovery. Imagine my surprise when
L touched the plant to see this center
stem gradually contract and convul-
sively roll itself up in a spiral like roll
of tape.
''But more surprising yet was. the
object and construction of this stem.
1 found on close examination and dis
section that it was a long, slender fiat
tube, the walls about 1.32 on an inch
thick, cellular in construction, open
at the outer end and connected at the
inner end to the roots by series of
hair-like tubes.
''By subsequent observation found
that when the plant was in want of
water this tube would gradually I'M
wind until it dipped into the water.
Then it would slowly coil round and
wind up, carrying with it the amount
of water that that part of the tube
which had been immersed contained,
until when the final coil was taken the
water was dumped, as it were, direct
into the roots of the plant. The coil
remained in this position until the
plant required more water. Should
the plant, however, be touched while
the tube is extended, the orchid acts
like the sensitive plant (mimosa) and
the coiling action is much more rapid.
81 found many of these plants, all
directly over the water or over where
the water had been. In the latter
case it was almost pitiful to see how
this tube would work its way over the
ground in search of the water that

The apparatus consists of a light
frame work of bamboo or aluminium,
supporting an endless web of canvas,
the whole being secured to the arms

forming the frame are pivoted at their

adjusts the device so that this base

MAKING THE BLIND SEE.
Physician of Vienna, :ustria, Claims
to Have Discovered Means OF
Giving Sight.

According to a Vienna medical jour
nal, the Wiener Klinische Wochen-
schrift, at the last meeting of the
medical association Herr Heller, the
director of one of the local blind
asylums, gave an interesting account
of the means by which he succeeded
in enabling blind boy of seven years
of age to distinguish objects and even
to read He claimed that this was the
first instance in which it had been
found possible to impart elementary
instruction exclusively through the
sense of sight to a child previously in
capable of seeing. He apparently at
tributed this result to a great restric-
ton of the field of vision and sight in
the case of a patient who manifested
considerable sensitiveness to light.
The method adopted was as follows:
The boy was first exercised in local
ling point of light in room which
was otherwise perfectly dark. Arti-
c.es with which he had already become
acquainted bystouch were then placed
within the narrow Illuminated circle,
and he was called upon to distinguish
them by sight alone. When the light
was passed through colored glasses
the child noticed the difference. By
associating the names with the vari-
Gus coIors he was gradually taught to
recognize them. After he had ac-
quirsd the power of distinguishing
geometrical forms he learned to rec
ognize letters and numerals. In the
second stage of the treatment the use
Of the sense of touch was entirely ex-
Guided. At present, after IA months
practice, the boy is able to read with
the naked eye and to recognize, local
ize and distinguish colors, forms and
objects at steadily diminishing dis
tances. A demonstration illustrating
these results was given in presence
of the medical association.

ly by Pennington Brush where it
would be likely to have the greatest
effect.
The next instant Rose Brewster was
sobbing hyst erically in Pennington's
arms.
"Oh, I couldn't have stood it "a

crazy if you hadn't come as you did,
because l couldn't have kept him

band.''

son, yes, it isl walled Mrs. Brew
ster. cit must be. No other man
could be so mcani"
After it was all over and there had
been trial instead of funeral,
Mrs. Brewster told how it happened.
When she stopped to set the cover
of the coffin down she heard the man
breathe, and knew that he was iiv-
ing. In a moment it flashed over her
what the rascal intended doing The
men who brought him were undouht-
eddy accomplices. Hearing CT her lit
tie fortune, and knowing her to be
a lone woman, they had come to
brighten her to death and rob her.
With superb presence of mind she
brought the pistol from her bed
room, and none too soon, for when
she returned the scoundrel was sit
ting up in his coffin, making ready to
get out. There she had held him
with an unloaded pistoI-while he
begged and threatened. When the
strain became unbearable she began
calling for Pennington, with little
hope that he would hear, and when
he crashed through the window, his
eyes blazing with fury, he seemed to
Rose Brewster like an cpgeI from
Heaven.
The neighbors said it served her
right; she should have married PEN
nington Brush ten years before. And
Pennington was in the habit of TAX
ing them out to the barn and show
ing them a coffin. which he said he
would sell cheap, because it was sec
ond-hand.
