II is queer to think of the possibility
of being in four states at once, yet
there is one spot in the United States
the only place in the world-where it
is possible. Look on your map of this
country, says the ST. Louis Republic,
and you viii find an intersection be-
tween two straight lines, where Colo
RADIO. Utah, New Mexico and Arizona
meet.
The place is not often visited, as it =,
not easily reached. The stone erecte |
there by the government surveyors is
on top of spur in the Carriso noun
tains. The nearest railroad town is
Mancos, Colo. nearly 100 miles from
the -four corners"
The region about was once densely
populated by cliff jewellers. but now
there are no human beings within miles.

The bite even of the largest chame-
leon does not fetch blood, though the
teeth leave indentations | often, says
a naturalist, provoke them to bite me
in order to observe their habits, and
only once. when one caught me be-
tween the fingers where the skin is
tender, was | really hurt. On this oc-
casion the thing held on so persistently
and firmly that | could not for some
time free my finger. At last | was
obliged to call some one to get it off by
forcibly opening its mouth. Even then
it did not pierce the skin Its teeth are
too fine and regular. but the dotted
triangular impression Of the little teeth
was very red and distinct for some
minutes

While good cigar, used temperate
y two or three times a day. may be
smoked b. the average adult man to
good advantage, excessive indulgence
"a slat&1;ng is very harmful. 1t is only
Necessary To recall ones first cigar and
the profound effect 1t produced to real
ize that the smoking of tobacco in large
quantities is tritiing with a dangerous
agent, says the Baltimore Sun.
The chief effects of smoking are from
the nicotine and empyreumatic oil, the
first being an active poison-an iniin-
itesmal quantity will destroy life-and
the latter, which is the rank accumu-
lation in the stem of the pipe, is also
q potent poison, one drop on the tongue
of cat having been fatal. The nico-
tine and the Oil both act on the nervous
system, though differently, the nicotine
paralyzing the heart by its action on
the brain, while the oil confines itself
chiefly to the spinal cord and the motor
nerves.
1t will thus be seen that no part Of
the victims equipment escapes the
deadly effect of tobacco in excess.

RaiIronding Terms.

Railroading terms in England and
America differ very widely. The Eng
fish would speak of shunting train.
We call it switching. Freight trains
they call goods trains. coaches are car
riages. conductors are guards, engi-
neers are drivers trucks are boggIes
and freight cars are wagons. The
British always say station instead of
depot, and in that they have the bet
ter of us. Rails they call metals and
tracks permanent ways They do not
get their tickets at ticket office, but
at booking Office, and the smokestack
of the locomotive is to them the CHM
ney. A railroad man going from one
country to the other finds that he has
to learn an entirely new set of phrases
about his business.

The fiction of the mysterious load
stone mountain which drew the nails
out of ships that approached near
enough has certain foundation in
fact. says the Steele. only the fact has
suffered by expansion. On the coast Of
Norway. near Joedefn, there is a sand
dune of nearly three-quarters of mile
in length. The sand is mixed with par
ticles OF loadstone, and when a ship
comes in the vicinity the compass be-
comes irregular, and the vessel is en-

A BAD way u ree9 birds.

1t is quite a common practice for per-
sons owning pet birds to teach them to
take bits of sugar or other food liked
by the bird from the lips. 1t has been
discovered that the trainers Of young
birds in Europe frequently contract in
this way peculiar parasitic growth on
the throat and lungs that IS frequently
fatal. and a warning has beer issued
by French physicians which may well
be needed by any one feeding birds

Laxoisier,a Death.

Without the contrasted patience of
moral and physical pain there are men
of high intellect for whom the latter
has no terrors. The chemist Layoisier
was summoned during the reign of
terror In France to his death. He
calmly requested few days in order
to see the result of some experiments
which he had in progress-in vain. This
great philosopher of his day fell an i'm

eminent to assess a duty OF 5 cents a bushel
upon all imported grain for the purpose of
waving that duty in favor of the colonial
product, though Canada has long asked
for il.
Now. however, there is an import duty
Of S cents on each 112 pounds of grain i'm
ported and 10 cents on each 112 pounds of
-four. The way is clear for concessions to
the colonies and it is not difficult to believe
tina the day is not far off when these con-
cessions will be made. The present tax is
not sufficient to cause an outcry from the
consumers, and the English farmers have
gained in part what they have long sought
for. The English miller would like to see
American flour taxed out of existence in
the English market, and the farmer is in
clined to agree with him, for when flour
is brought in the residue of the grain is left
behind and the price of feed for live stock
c-orrespondingly increases.
Colonial produce carried in subsidized
ships, admitted at lower duties, filling all
requirements of the trade and appealing
not only TO imperial pride but serving as
a practical bond Of union and reserve
strength, political and military, between
England and her colonies, is a possible
competition not to be treated lightly by
the nations now holding the bulk Of this
trade. chief among which is the United
States.
Setting aside the glowing and extravagant
statements of the colonial premiers as to
the productiveness Of their various coun-
tries it is well to look into the colonial
possibilities Of the future.
Last year England imported from all
sources about 1881 900 900 bushels of wheat.
The United States furnished $1,000. O01 BUSH
els. England also imported 12,O00,0o0 bar
rels of flour, of which the United States
furnished 10000, 900. The crop of wheat in
Canada this year is estimated at 75,0OO,OOO
bushels, with unlimited possibilities for the
future. The production of other bread
stuffs is increasing apace. With every con-
venience possible extended to Canada for
the marketing of her grain in England she
would undoubtedly secure the trade or else
reduce the price TO those who met her in
serious competition. The flow of grain
from Canada to England would make it
easier to increase her sales of dairy prod
ucts. a large item at the present time and
a trade In which Canada has left the
United States far behind.
United States farmers may settle on
Canadian lands. United States capital may
go into Canadian railroads, mills. steamship
lines and enterprises of all kinds which are
taking advantage of the boom, but while
this may individually benefit some of the
people of the United States it certainly
does not rebound to the increase of trade,
wealth and general prosperity In the coun-
try as a whole Allowing that Canada can
