Only a Mask.

Many are not being benefited by the
summer vacation as they should be.
Now, Notwithstanding much outdoor
life, they are little if any stronger than
they were The tan ON their faces is
darker and makes them look healthier,
but it Is only mask. They are still
nervous, easily tired, upse by trifes,
and they do not eat nor sleep well.
What they need is what tones the
nerves, perfects digestion, creates appe-
tite, and makes sleep refreshing, and
that is Hoods SarsaFarilla. Pupils and
teachers generally will find the chief
puspose of the vacation best subserved
by this great medicine which. as we
know. Guilds up the whole system.

A Visit to the Rice Field.

town Sunday and Toasted their
eyes upon the beautiful view OF
siXty-fve acres of rice. wide
green stretch of waving grain.
level as the floor. The stalks are
not very tall, scarcely three feet,
in fact, this being the Japan variety
OF rice, which does not grow near
ly 50 tall a> the Honduras aud
other varieties. The crop Is now
matured and will be cut very
shortly. To the uninitlated, it does
not appear fully matured, as it Is
still of green color, but It is
quite ready for emitting, and will
finish ripening after being harvest
ed. The yield from this crop will
be about fifteen barrels per acre,
one barrel containing as much as
100 pounds of rice. If this were
put on the market, it would bring
at least $500 barrel, but It's not
the intention of the company to
market the crop. The entire Weld
will be stored and used as seed for
planting next spring The crop is
considered an excellent one, sur
passing the average yield elsewhere
by about three barrels per acre.
That the experiment has proved
satisfactory is evidenced by the fact
that the company will plaEt on
much greater scale next spring.
Preparations are already being
made for next year, the most in
pOrtant work being the digging of
a canal from the river to supply
water. A civil engineer Is now en-
gagged in surveying the ditch, which
will he about FIVE miles long and
l50 feet wide The company will
also provide more engines and
other machinery, making it a big
and important investment. II next

Use given so far by Mr.. Ratclitfe's
experiment, the rice crop will
hereafter be one of Cameron c0un-

story Of his life will be an inspiration to

them that what man has done man can
do.
And yesterday there sailed from San
Frarcisco a transport carrying three
hundred more American teachers to the
Philippines, including several we'll
known in St. Johnsbury and vicinity,
under contract with the government to
stay there three years and teach English
and the rudimentary branches to the ma
tive children. This is another result of
the new regime in Cuba and the Philip
pines, and in providing liberal educa-

its promise for benevolent assimilation"
and giving to natives in various parts of
the earth chance to make the most of
themselves.

How He Saved His Dinner.

In the little town of Arundel there is a
taXidermist who is gifted with won
derful presence of mind. Here is an
instance:
Some time ago a gentleman called at
his shop with cock pheasant, which
he desired to have skinned, stating at
the same time that he did not require
the body. This quite suited the taxi
dermist, who thought the pheasant
would do for his dinner on the morrow.
However, later in the day the gentle
man called again and said that he
would take the body away. The tax
idermist replied that it was unusual
Tor customers to take the bodies away,
but that he had no objection, and he
fetched the bird, which his wife had
put on a plate and covered with flour.
All! exclaimed the gentleman. at
looks very nice. But what is this white
powder with which it is coveredY
"Oh, that" replied the taxidermist
quietly, lis arsenic. 1 always cover
the bodies with that until can dis
pose of them"
"Ar-arsenic" stammered the gentle
man. "Why, thought that the bird
would be good to eat. Thank you, |
won't trouble to take it away with me-
Good day."
The taxidermist had saved his din.

Unlnhabited Islands.

If you should want an island-that is,
an uninhabited island-fOr the purpose
of occupying it alone, Robinson Crusoe
like, or to use it for romantic fiction or
for any other purpose, to the exclusion
Of all others in the world, you need have
no trouble in finding one if you see fit
to make journey to the Indian ocean.
In the waters between Madagascar and
India you can find more than $4,000 of
them, where there Is not human be-
ing and where you can, if you will, be
monarch of all you survey.
An English traveller has recently been
among the small islands that dot the
western end of the Indian ocean to
make an inventory of them and re-
ports that he counted 1900 and found
only about 600 of them inhabited
Now, there is good chance for any
one who may want an island.
These particular islands are not large,
as islands go, but very many Of them
are sufficient for the purpose of q Rob
inson Crusoe or any other novel hero
or for even a small colony of ship
wrecked mariners or other persons who
might be cast on one of them or seek
for the purpose Of making home pref
ty much out of the busy world.
Some Of them are only an acre or
two, well elevated above the tide, while
others are quarter Of a mile in diam
eter and running from that up to mile
or two in length and quarter or less
Of the length in breadth. Many Of
them are granite structures that rise
steeply from 20 to 100 feet, well cover
ed with rich soil, through which small
fresh water streams hurry to the sea,
which they reach after flowing over
beaches Of glistenlng calcareous sand
that are begirt by coral reefs, which
form walls about the islands.
