The farther north any of the small
grains are raised the better is apt to
be their quality and the larger the
yield, provided the frosts do not catch
them before maturity. The finest speci-
mems of oats, wheat, flax, barley and
rye we have ever seen grown any
where were raised in the far north
west, where it does not get dark in the
summer until 10 o'clock at night.

The problem of feeding the people, in
view of their constantly increasing
numbers and the inevitable Impairment
of the fertility of much of the arabic
land Of the country, becomes each year
a more and more important matter, and
thus it comes that all questions pertain
ing to agriculture and the production
Of this food command more and more
attention. For this reason education is
now being demanded for the farmer,
the aid of science is being invoked, and
the economics of agriculture are being
studied as never before.

The Teeth.

TIC keep the teeth perfectly clean
brush thoroughly night and morn
ing. using pure dentifrice, and
rinse the mouth after every meal
with an antiseptic lotion, also using
the quill toothpick to remove par
ticles Of food. The brush should be
used up and down on the teeth, as
this allows the bristles to pass be-
tween the teeth, and it Is also less
likely to .injure the gums. The in
side OF the teeth should receive
the same treatment as the outside,
and the contact surface Of the mo-
lars should be thoroughly. scrubbed.
Never pick the teeth with any metal
implement; do not crack nuts With
them or bite threads. Extremes Of
temperature in food or drink should
be avoided. Hot soup should not
be followed by iced water or ice
cream by hot coffee.

Pronunciation Of English proper
names is a marvel Of inconsistency,
but there is an American family,
Virginian, that outstrips such Eng
lish vagaries as Cholmondeley, pro-

NEGROES WITH a BROGUE.

Curious Linguistic ahhznomsnsn in
West indian Leland.
The islands Of Martinique. st.
Vincent, Barbados, Montserrat, st.
Lucia and Guadeloupe, besides af-
fording an illiuitable field, for the
study Of technology, constitute in
themselves one Of the greatest eth
biological curiosity chops in the
world, 60 that he who visits these
islands may stand prepared for a
surprise at every turn. One Of the
strangest chronological freaks is to
be found on the island of Montser-
rat. This island is one Of the oldest
British colonies in America and was
tlrst settled by Irish emigrants from
Connaught. Subsequently negro
slaves we're introduced in the island
whose descendants form the bulk of
Its present population, for here as
elsewhere in the Antilles the white
man seems to have died out and
disappeared, leaving the negro in
undlsputed possession Of the soil.
The negro slaves imported from
Africa in 1648 learned the English
Language from the Irish settlers and
planters, and in consequence they
DO this day speak the Irish brogue
with the same breadth of accent as
the people of Kerry OF Donegal.
AN amusing and true story is re-
lated of an Irish saddler who some
few years ago engaged to an English
tirm having large sugar planta-
tions in Montserrat to go to that
island in its employ. The ship
on which he made the voyage hav-
ing reached the roadstead Of the
capital of the colony, q number Of
Dagroes swarmed about the ship in
their lighters soliciting carrying
custom.
One of them addressed the Irish
saddler in his native Ccanaught
brogue. The latter in surprise
asked,j 'Thunder. and turf, how
long how vyez been here~ The negro
thinking he meant the length oi
time he had been living IN that par.
ticular part Of the island, replied
sThree months" '.Three months p
exclaimed the Irishman. "Thres

HOMELY. BUT AMlABlEs
Ugly Men Who Were AsIe TO FaseInats
The Ea:r Sex.

Ugly Men Who Were Ahie TO FascInats
The sa:F Sex,
One Of the men who possessed
the lady killing faculty to a. most
surprising degree was Napoleon
bonaparts g rival in the affections
OF Marie Louise, the infamous and
all powerful Neipperg. he was an
ugly creature, with small abilities
and yet smaller fortune, and he had
broken many hearts about the Aus
trian court before Marie Louise
saw and fell furiously in love with
him. With everything to lose and
nothing to ge;n by her encourage
ment Of the man, she left no stone
unturned until she was able to make
herself Neipperg's wife.
In the eyes Of the world it was q
terrible degradation for the widow
OF the French emperor to become
the wife af an Austrian count. but
she cared not a whit what the world
said, as was the case with the wo-
men who ran after the ugly spend
thrift Wilkes and the m.d Due de
Richelieu.
Wilkes was famous in. Is day all
over England not only as lord mayor
and chamberlain and very loud
talking patriot, but as the ugliest
man Of his time and the most ad-
mired by the. women. He flouted
and i'll treated al of them with the
exception of his daughter, but it had
not the desired effect of cooling
their affections. :
AS to the Due de Richelieu, though
men could not tolerate him.. when he
was shut up III the Baatille crowds
Of women, old and young and rich
and poor, used to collect every day
at the hour when he took his ex-
ercise on the parapets and adore
him fromia distance and deplore the
incarceration Of so charming a per
son. 60
Theodore, Hook wasy another
ugly man who was irresistible to the
softer eex, for it is proved clearly
that when q man is agreeable to
women they care not in the least
what his personal appearance may
be. Liszt proved this.
When an old man, with a hard,
ngly face, women begged perrniea;ess.:
TO kiss his ugly hands and rayed
|. and sentimentalized over him as
though he were Adonis' self. Doz-
ems of schoolgirls and countesses
who worshiped at his shrine cared
( not pin for his music nor under
stood note of it, but were keenly
alive to? the charm of his PERSONAL
| ity, which no woman, 80 far as we
know, was eveT able OF willing to
withstand.

Mr.. and Mrs. Caster Olsen we're
down from Aurum last week.
The dance here on the 14th was
largely attended and was a very en-
joyable affair.
Jos. Stoddard and his four big greys
brought In lum Der last Friday and left
aga in Sunday for the mill
On Thursday, the 18th inst, while
climbing out OF shaft at Hogum.
Jakey Henderson met with what might
have been a serious accident. A rung
OF the ladder gave way and let him
fall backward. He struck on his head
and shoulders nine feet below. He re-
ceived cut on the head and bruised
hand and side and shaking up gener-
ally, although he is able to be around.
VIM. Hamilton met with a similar
accident the same day. He was climb
ing out OF vertical shaft fifty feet
deep and when about twenty. five feet
from the bottom rung gave way
letting him go head foremost when he
lit stradd le of his partner, Mr.. Cra-
mer, who was at the bottom OF the
shaft. When Cramer saw him coming,
he determined on breaking his fall, Ii
possible, so he bent over and braced
himself with his hands on his knees
and awaited results. Fortunately for
both no bones were broken. Hamilton
had one wrist put out OF joint which
was afterwards reset aud he Is now
carrying 1t in a sling. This should be
warning to miners In general to see
that their ladders and timbers are
strong and safe.
