SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

The crocodile, the chicken and the ostrich take pebbles with their food to aid in grinding it.
 There is now made an opera glass which folds to the thickness of half an inch and needs no case.
 A fluid capable of anaesthetizing plant when injected into the tissue thereof near the roots has been dis covered by a German chemist. The plant so treated stops growing, but maintains it's fresh, green appearance as long as the effects of the injection last.
 Cottonseed oil, corn oil and linseed oil, there is good reason to believe, will probably have a rival at not distant day in edible petroleum oil. As a matter of fact, petroleum has been successfully desulphurized and demineralized. Certain other solids and ingredients have been extracted from it and the production of a fair ly good edible oil has already re- suited.
 In the United States alone 6,300,00O cords of wood are converted into pa- per. New York daily papers take over 135,000 tons annually. The United States itself cannot supply this immense quantity, and about 1000 cords of wood are imported daily for this purpose. Canada, with her vast ranges of forests, offers a great field for the pulp manufacturers, and where this timber is situated near tide water it is most valuable.
 M. Dagan, French entomologist, has tried several hundred species of insects as food, both raw and cooked in various ways, and has further made himself an authority by col lecting travellers experiences. Spiders, which he has eaten, he does not rec ommend. Cockroaches. however, make most delicious soup; caterpil- lars are light and easily digested and are relished not only by African and American natives but by Frenchmen, | and locusts fried or made into flour and boiled in milk are prized by the Bedouins.

 T do, madame.'
 Have you a trade or regular vocation?"
 "l was formerly an eXpressman.'
 ''In what city:'
 Tn Boston,"
 But surely, at this time of the year, in a big city like Boston, you ought to be able to find work enough as an expressman."
 Madame, you do not know Boston. You have heard, years ago, of The Bacchante?' Yes? Then it is only necessary to tell you that l am one of the eypressmen who car ried her to the station"
 "But 1 do not see''
 "The fact became generally known, madame. From that moment ceased to be respectable. There is no one in Boston who will employ me"

GIadstOne's Lack of Experience,

Herbert Gladstone's marriage re- calls story which was told of him a few years ago. The popular lib- eral whip was addressing a women's suffrage meeting in Leeds one after noon, and in the course of his speech he paid Q graceful compliment to the eloquence of the ladies who had ad- dressed the meeting. He further gal lantly remarked on the great pleas- ure which it gives the other sex to listen to women talking. Pausing for a moment after this observation. Mir. Gladstone, like his audience, was thrown into an unexpected state of merriment by a male voice, which proceeded from the back of the hall, and proclaimed in the broadest York shire dialect: ''Eh, lad, thou'rt moan wed yet, l see'st!"-London Chron- icle.

 The typewriter blushed, says the New York Sun. Alr. Wyeth was partner, and it's hard to tell partner hs cant spell. T don't think that's quite rigat,' she taltered. Lets look in the dictionary"
 The dictionary was an old edition and didn't contain the word. Suddenly hope loomed large in the person of the senior partners son: He Was fresh from Harvard, and thei entire office appealed to him through MT. Wyeth's: Say, Ransome, spell jardiniere.'

A HORRIBLE AFFAIR.
Body of Al Foliis Found Frozen,
Bruised and Lacerated in
Lonely Spot.

opcs'
The body of Albert Follis was
found in most horrible condition.
He became 80 weak from hunger
and exertion in travelling the hills
that he fell, dragging himself a
distance of nearly 800 yards over
the ground, rocks and small bitches
His body was horribly mutilated,
the flesh on his knees, arms, feet
and hands being badly torn. His
feet, hands and face were frozen.
He was almost naked, nothing but
a ragged pair of pants was left on
his body, his shirt, shoes, hat and
stockings having been discarded
IN his mad rush
Mortician Mccormick and Dep
uty Sheriff Nicholas returned with
the body last evening and it wss
viewed in Deibert's undertaking
parlors by hundreds of people last
night and this morning His
brother, William, is said to be very
sick in Mayetta, Kansas, and it is
likely the body will be shipped
east for burial.
AS was stated yesterday the
body was found twelve miles south
of here and about a mile from the
city ranch, just over the big hill,
and the bloodhounds were within
hundred yards of the remains
Sunday, The spot was very
lonesome one.
The body is shrunken consider
ably, weighing in his normal con-
dition probably 135 or l4O pounds,
his remains will not balance the
scales at lCO pounds now. This is
due to privation.
Albert Follis was well liked by
all who knew him; he was AMIGA
BILE, endeavoring to please all
He had failed mentally recently
and his death is the outcome of
this. 1t was only e short time ago
that he was discharged by an en-
ployer because he no longer was
able to perform his duties in a
satisfactory manner.
