in Paris is noticeable, and to this is
added the fact that the street lamps
are turned out little after 1 o'clock.
There is not soul on the terraces of
the cafes after midnight, and people

DR.. Vaughan Cornish in the Geo.

waves and snow drifts of Canada.
From Montreal as far west as Port Ar.
thur, that is to say, for 1000 miles, he
found the snow moderately dry, as in
the Pentlands and Highlands of Scot
land, but from Winnipeg to Medicine
Hat IL was dry, granular and rough on
the surface. Parts of the prairie were
swept bare of snow in the neighbol v
hood Of snow banks, and the landscape
resembled white desert. In the Rock
les the snow was moister, and at Gla'
cier House in the Selkirks, Il stump OF
tree two feet thick supported q cap OF
snow nine feet across the caves pro-
jecting three feet six inches all around
the pedestal, and the whole resembling
a gigantic mushroom or toadstool. An.
other broken tree four feet thick had
a snowcap twelve feet across, the caves
projecting four feet all around. Some
of these "snow mushrooms" must have
weighed ton. The layers of snow in
them bend with gravity downward.

The decision that every orderly and
attendant in hospital under the con-
troll of city authority shafl wear q
neat and suitable uniform has every
thing in it's favor, and there can be
no valid argument against it. Would
any intelligent person now advocate
a return to the old, unsatisfactory sys-
TEN of many years ago, when the con-
ductors and brakemen on railroads
wore clothes not different from those
of the passengers? What endless con-
fusion and trouble We're caused in
those days by the lack of distinguish
ing garb on the part Of the men who
had charge of the trains! And the
employees of hospitals should, of course,
be easily recognized even at q distance,
by doctors, surgeons, superintendents
and patients. Indisputably rules can
be enforced. discipline can be carried
out, the standards Of the institutions
kept up and peace and quiet main

MoLAsssS AS CATTLE FOOD:
Horses and Mules Have Thrived on 1t in
Louisiana For Two Years.

Louisiana For Two Years.
Molasses has for two years been in
general use in Louisiana for the feed
ing of horses, mules and all stock, and
probably nine-tenths of the draught
animals in the sugar district get this
food, either alone OF mixed with oats
or corn.
The animals like 1t, and are kept in
splendid condition by it. Sugar
mules" which are fed on molasses
mainly, are worth from twenty to
twenty-five per cent. more than the
mules on cotton plantations, which are
fed generally on cottonseed and cot
tonseed meal.
Molasses has been waste product in
Louisiana ever since the improved
processes in the manufacture of sugar
have extracted more of the saccharine
from it than formerly. 1t has been a
problem how to get rid of it. The dis
coyery therefore that it could be used
as food for stock was of double
value.
Six months ago a factory was erected
for the manufacture of cattle food
from molasses. The process is very
simple.
The molasses is mixed with corn or
oats in nearly equal proportions. The
mixture is pressed into a solid mass
and dried and then ground into a fine
powder.
1t is like the cottonseed meal with
which cattle and horses are fed
throughout the world. The horses,
mules and cattle are very fond of the
molasses, and they do better on it
than on any other food fed to them.
They keep fat and are capable of ex-
traordinary work in hauling heavy
loads.
This one factory turns out $50 tons
Of molasses preparation a day; and
the stuff is being rapidly substituted on
the plantations for the raw molasses,
not because 1t IS any better, but be-
cause it is more conveniently handled.
SO far the use of molasses for feed
Ing horses has been confined to New
Orleans and the sugar districts, but
by this process, which enables it to
be handled easily. 1t is likely to be
shipped elsewhere.
Only q small part Of the Louisiana
molasses crop, which runs to from
3O,O0o,O0O to 5O,ooOOOO gallons a year,
is used for horse and cattle food or in
any other way; and large proportion
of it is thrown away or burned in the
furnace with the bagasse and other
waste and refuse.-New York Sun.

A MATTER OF DOUBT.

! loye to read of daring deeds,
OF clash and clamoring of war;
To learn of one who bravely bleeds,
Defending what he's fighting for,
But South America is much
Too mingled for my mind to hitch
The tangle they are in is such
} I don't know which is fighting which,
They're skipping out with treasures,
And blowing public buildings down,
And every city quakes and sees
Some doughty leaders fighting frown.
The cable brings the thrilling news
OF men who die in some last ditch
To grasp it must my mind refuse
l don't know which is fighting which.
The clang of swords, the clustered boast,
Are ringing now both night and day;
The troops are battling on the coast;
By sea and land they run away.
] wonder if they know the truth,
Or if to fight they simply itch.
I wonder if they know-forsooth,
If they know which is fighting which.

There used to be a custom of strew-
ing flowers before the bridal couples
as they went to the church, and from
the church TO the house.
Suppose the way with fragrant herbs
We're strewing,
All things were ready, We to the church
were going,
And now suppose the priest had joined
our hands,"
is quaint old verse that refers to
this custom. The Persians introduce
tree at their marriage feasts laden with
fruit, and it Is the place OF the guests
to try to pluck this without the BRIDE
groom observing If successful, they
must present the bridal couple with a
gift a hundred times the value of the
object removed. In Tuscany brides,
wear jasmine wreaths, and there is a
legend that once reigning Grand Duke
who at great expense procured this
flower for his own particular garden,
gave orders to his gardener not to part
with any flowers OF clippings; but the
gardener, who was in love, took a
sprig to his sweetheart as gift. She,
being shrewd, planted it and raised
from it several small plants which she
sold to the Dukes envious neighbors
at great price. In short time she
had saved enough money to enable
her lover and herself to marry and
start housekeeping, and so the Ttlscans
have a saying that ~The girl worthy OF
wearing the jasmine wreath is rich
enough to make her husband happy"
