Totems and Mascottes.

The totems cherished by some Of the
Indian tribes suggest the French mas
cote. A totem is the generic word
for class of material objects which
a savage regards with superstitious
awe, under the belief that between
him and every member Of the class
there exists an intimate relation. The
totem may be wolf. beaver, a buf-
falo. a salmon, a snake. the wind,
birch bark. the leaves of trees, the sun
or the snow. But whatever it happens
to be. the connection between it and
its protege is mutually beneficial The
totem protects the man, and the man
testties his esteem for his protection
by not killing it should it be an animal,
and not destroying it should it be a

To Measure Objects.

The dimensions of an object may be
known even if no measuring line is to
be had. The girth of the hand is equal
to the length Of the foot.
Many useful measures can be found
in the body. The first finger is usu-
ally four inches long. two inches from
the knuckle to the next joint and two
inches more to the tip. From the tip
Of the middle finger to the elbow is
about sixteen inches on an average,

and water and oNgall. DO not try to
clean marble with acid. If the marble
is stained with oil or grease which
cannot be removed with good soap and
water and the addition of oXgall, Il
paste must be made to take out the
grease The simplest paste is com
posed of fuiler's earth aud warm water
with n small amount of washing SODA

Ii is always best to have the carpet
laid by men from the store. as they
know how to avoid straining the fibre.
Let them also clean the carpets. as the
amateur usually does more harm Than
good as a cleaner The carpet should
be brushed away from the nap. Nap

sweeping with the nap. This will give
Won chance to see all the stains.
The right method TO treat a good
carpet is to lay it carefully on , soft
helGing of thick layers of newspapers
or of brown paper. The printing ink
on newspapers is disliked by the moth,
which will avoid such Innings as a
place unsuitable for the laying OF its

Thus thick folds of newspapers not

should not be killed: they are Of great
value to the public. and to wantonly
destroy them for ''practice' in shooting
is a habit that no true sportsman will
engage in and which. we hope. is the
result of thoughtlessness. The appeal
is made to the SpOrtSmen of the coun-
try by the national committee of the
Audubon Society, 'to ask them to
consider the great value of the non
game birds. and it is believed that they
will not only abstain from killing such
birds. but will preach the gospel of
protection at all times" A careful
reading of this gospel will show every
true sportsman that the Florida Audu-
bon Society. in urging this for your
consideration would in no way wish
to interfere with legitimate sport. but
it does ask you TO endeavOr in your
power. at all times. to prevent merci-

of the Carolina Rice Growers AssOcia-
ton, have not only Increased the de-

Diet, but have increased the applicants
for rice lands. These lands have ad-
vanced in values ranging from 81 to
$40 per acre to from $15 to $50. The
latter is now an average price for. the
h,st rice lands. This price is being
paid for land under which oil is know II
to lie, with no idea of ever boring for
oil on the part of the purchaser
Men who own rice lands in the irri-
gated territory of Louisiana and Texas
either put in one deep-water well to
every 200 acres to be irrigated. or pay
the irrigation companies a sum Of
never more than s1.5O per acre to
water their lands. If the land ie
owned by the companies they furnish
land. seed and water for One-half the
crop, or furnish water only to any
farmer for one-fifth or one fourth of
his crop.
The average cost of cultivating an
acre of rice is So and it yields $50 to
$40 per acre. so that nearly every man
who leases n farm one season owns it
the next. if he has an average good
crop.
Nearly all the big mills and irrigating
systems are owned by organizations
of farmers who protect their own in

DEMOCRATS SNUB TILLMAN.-A most
remarkable proceeding took place in
the senate this afternoon while Senator
Tillman, of South Carolina, ran amuck
defending slave-owning in the south, at
tacking the governments policy in the
Philippines, admitting that the ballot
boxes are stuffed in the south to offset
the effect Of the Negro vote, accusing
General Sherman of falsifying histo-
ry and declaring that the shotgun
would be resorted to in the south il
necessary to keep the white man on
top politically.
Before he had proceeded very far
with his speech the Democratic SEN
ators, almost in a body left the cham
ber and remained in the cloakrooms
until Tillman sat down, when they re-
turned and took their seats. Even
Carmack and Rawlins and Patterson
and Dubois, the most radical of those
who are denouncing the conduct of the
American army in the Philippines, went
out with the rest and remained away
until Tillman had finished his speech.
The only prominent Democrat who
stuck to his post was Mr.. Teller. of
Colorado, and he was very busy study
ing a huge volume on his desk and did
not pay the slightest attention to the
South Carolina senator. The Demo-
Gratis said afterward that they were
