A FLY That Kills Horses.

All white men who visit regions in
Africa infested by the tsetse fly have
much to say about it. There is now
evidence that the tsetse is moving
gradually to more northern regions,
and the cause is supposed to be that
South Africa is depleted Of it's large
game, much Of which is moving north
ward to get away from hunters, and
the tsetse fly is going with it.
The insect is only u little larger than
the ordinary house fly, and it resem-
bless the ~holeybee. Its sting is hardly
al annoying as that Of the mosquito,
but near the base of the proboscis is a
little bag which contains it's poison. 1t
lives on the blood of animals. and only
a few species are fatally affected by
it's bite. Cattle, horses and dogs, how
ever, cannot live when bitten by the
tsetse fly. Natives who herd cattle
and travellers who depend on horses
and oxen must avoid the fly regions or
lose their stock. For human beings its
bite has no serious consequences.

Cleanliness the watchword.


The presence of wild garlic OF wild
onions in pastures, the use of turnips
and other feeds containing oil must be
avoided where cows are giving a large
amount Of milk. Feeds which have a
bad odor, such as silage, must be fed
right after milking and at no other
time; otherwise the milk and resulting
butter is apt to show the effects. In
all cases keep these feeds away from
the cow during milking time. Taints
from silage or other foul feeds are
transmitted through the air; conse-
quently If the air is full of silage odor
the milk is apt to show it. II, however,
feeds of this kind are given directly
after milking the product from the cow
cannot be distinguished from that pro
duced from other feeds, although con-
densing factories and some creameries
prohibit it's use.-New England Home

Although the silk cotton tree Is a ma.
tive Of South America, there is one
specimen of it in Nassau, Bahama is
lands, that has f1ourished wonderfully
and is one of the greatest c%uriosities
on the island. 1t was planted more
than 200 years ago by John Miller.
The roots seem to be unable to find
their way down after the manner Of
ordinary roots and so swell up like
great buttresses radiating round the
trunk Of the tree, rising from the
ground to a height of from six to
twelve feet. They reach out to irregu-
lar distances, gnarled, and twisted in
the most curious fashion. They turn
and bend and double a point in all
sorts Of unexpected ways and make
dark hollows and ravines, where the
darkies believe the elves and gnomes
make their home.
The great seed pods are filled with a
fine, soft fleece Of silk, which the IA
tives use for filling their pillows and
mattresses. There are several speci-
mems of the tree on the island Of New
Providence, but this one is monarch of
them all.

One Divided by n Half.

If you ask the man in the street the
simple question, What is one divided
by a half? he will either reply that the
operation is an impossible one or that
the answer is a half. When you point
out that one divided by wv is a half.
he will see that there is something
wrong somewhere, but will still be
quite unable to give the right answer.
When you tell him that the answer is
two. he will either accept the assertion
without understanding it or will dis
pute it tooth and nail. II you attempt
to convince him of his error. you will
ind it is rot at all an easy task.
His mistake arises through the con
founding Of two distinct ideas-namely,
one divided into two and one divided
by two. One divided into two is one
divided into two parts, each part con-
tanning a half. One divided by two is
the ratio of n to two OF the number
Of times two is contained in n To
any one who has thought the matter
out this seems clear enough, but to the
man in the street it. is sheer nonsense.
and he will tell you so.-Kansas City

To Promote Marriages.

1t is a superstition in some parts of
England that after a young couple
have departed for their honeymoon hot
water should be poured on the thresh-
old in order that other marriages may
follow. With this end in view the
brides girl friends will sometimes
drench the doorstep with boiling wa
ter from kettles heated for the purpose
Of keeping the threshold warm. says
Home Notes.
In Iceland another plan is in vogue.
There the bride, on reaching her hus-
bands house, has to give a dinner
cooked with her own hands to show
how well she has been instructed in
the parental home. If she succeed in
pleasing the guests. her skill does not
only rebound to her own honor, but
also to that Of her whole family, and
her sisters, having shared in her edu.
%catiOnal advantages, are considered
likely to make good wives.

A BIT of Correspondence.

The following correspondence, ending
in true Irish fashion. actually passed
between two men in England some
years ago:
"Mr. Thompson presents his compli

quest that he will keep his Dogs from
t~respassing on his grounds"
"Mr. Simpson presents his compli
ments to Mr.. Thompson and begs te
suggest that in future he should not
spell dogs with two gees"
"Mr. Thompson's respects to Mr.
Simpson and will feel obliged If he will
add the letter e. to the last word in the
note just received, SO as to represent
Mr.. Simpson and lady"
"Mr. Simpson returns Mr.. Thomp
sons note unopened, the im%pertinence
it contains being only equaled by its

naturally e~xasperated, and n day
after expressing how helpless he found
himself to outwit his rival. he turned
to Travers with the query:

egg, but you can cook them for a year
and the white part will remain liquid.

each one. II you squeeze it out, the
