without prejudice the Davis motion in
the Nobregga case for the enforcement
of his counsel fee of 81. 600. The motion

THEY WILL REMAIN.

The bump of reverence is over
Swallowed by the bump of intelli-
gence in the Goth century man

preserved simply because they
are old. Whatsoever is no longer
useful must get out of the way.
Nevertheless, progress that is
not intelligent will not be per-
manent. We shall continue to
breathe air, drink water and eat
bread. There viii be no "im-
proyement" on the great ESSEN
tials OF living, and we do not
want any. Babies will come into
the world as they have from the
beginning, and people will die
out of 1t as they have done since
the world began. Let us not run
away with the idea that all of
our treasured opinions are to be
upset. Through every change,
all standard articles which, like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION

honour and good service, will
hold their place. This effective

THE CHINESE FUND.

The Chinese Fund appears to be an
ornhan without guardian
senator Brown has introduced bill
tn provide it with guardian He pro-
noses that the fund. which amounts TO
apuroximately s155.OOO. shall be turned
over 20 some bank as a trustee, VINO
.ban pay to each Chinaman entitled
thereto. when he returns to China the
amount of his deposit.
According to Senator Browns pro-
cram the Trustee Bank would also De
the residuary Iegatee Of all the money
,,ncal,ed for. This amount will be very
large. for it is a well known fact that
many of the laborers deserted their con-
,-acts and forfeited any amount they
mere entitled 10 by so doing Many
others wiz not return to China ana
consequently their deposits will remain
undrawn-
There is no provision in the bill Tor
the payrnent of any interest by the
bank. nor is there anything to prevent
the bank treating the deposit as part
Of its capital and ioaning it out.
Altogether the bank trustee provided
Tor under Mr. Browns bill would nave
a soft snap
The bin upon the same subject intro
auced By. Senator Mccandiess is much
more in the public interest than that
OF Senator Brown
The MccandIess bill provides that the
money shall be paid into the Treasury
and disbursed therefrom from time 10
time to the Cinnamon entitled thereto
as they depart for China.
the difference in the status OF tne
fund under the two bills is that under
the Brown bin the private trustee gets
the benefit of the interest and would De
tho final owner of all money not called
for. whereas under the Mccandless bill
the public would receive these Dene-
hts-
during the past period by having con-
troll OF this fund
The difnculty. and the sole difficulty
with the past status of the fund was y
that lnStea1 OF Dcln6 /

The ancient problem, "When is a

The Status Of Children.

A child, of British parents, wheth-
er born in France, China or any 9TH
er country, is a British subject. So,
too, is the child of American par
ents wherever they are situated.
What is more, these two greedy
countries claim as their own all chill
dTen born within their aominions,
but in England the child of aliens
is permitted when he comes Of age
to choose his own nationality. It is
plain that if each state attempted to
claim as its own every one born in
its borders there would be endless
a%uarrels. International law on the
subject says, therefore, that there
shall be no attempt to exercise au-
thority over natural born subjects
SO long as they are outside the Dor
ders of their own countries. Once q
man returns to his own country
that state is permitted to deal with
him as it sees ft.-London Answers.

DrummakInu.

Drummaking is o curious indus
try and rs complex rs curious, for
the drum has many parts. A drum Of
the best construction has forty-cight
different pieces, not including sticks,
hooks and belt.
Most, of course, are made in fac
tories devoted to the special manu-
facturc of parts. Screws, bolts,
nuts, rivets, sides, hoops and other
parts arc manufactured separately
and furnished to the drummaker,
who assemblies" them-that is,
combines these many different parts
into one.
The materials Of which the drum
is composed are also numerous.
Spring brass-brass having the
springy quality Of stecl-alumini-
UNI, copper, iron, steel, wood, cellu-
loid, catgut, silk, animal hides for
heads, are among the materials en-
ploycd.
In the cheap drums almost any
skin may be employed, but in the
better grades of drums only two
kinds of skins are used-that of the
kangaroo and that of the Angora
goat.

Injury From Tightly Laced Shoes.

Tightly laced shoes or overnight
gaiters which fit closely about the
ankles have an extremely bad eff
feet on the health of the foot. Any
member deprived of its customary
supply of blood becomes impover-
ished and enfcebled and by and by
subject to muscular atrophy. There
are people who have worn tight
laced shoes or tight CATERS SO long
that the muscles of their feet and
ankles have pcrceptibly shrunk and
lost a large portion of their power.
Shoes tightly laced at the ankle de-
privc the foot of its nee1ful supply
of blood, and after the foot be-
comes weak it is extremely liable to
.sprains or wrenches, and a large
proportion of people suffering from
sprained ankles themselves induced
the trouble by weakening their u
cles with tight shoes.

To
The Brain of an Ant.

Although an ant is q tiny crea-
ture, yet its brain is even timer.
But although it is necessarily small
er than the ants head which con
tains it, yet it is larger in proper
ton, according to the ants size,
than the brain of any known crea-
ture. The best writer's upon ants
those who have made the astonish-
ing intelligence of these little in
sects a special study-are obliged
to admit that they display reason-
ing ability, calculation, reflection
and good Judgment. Such quail
ties of brain show a more than or
binary instinct, and we are not sur
prised to hear that. the ants big
brain carries out our idea that he
possesses a higher intelligence than
is shown by other workers of his
size.

bottiing Tears.

In Persia, it appears, they still
bottle up tears as of old. This is
done in the following manner: AS
the mourners are sitting around and
weeping the master Of ceremonies
presents each one with a piece of
cotton wool, with which he wipes
his tears. This cotton is aftcrward
squeezed into a bottle, and the tears
III preserved as a powerful and eff
ticacious remedy for rowling q dy-
ing man after every other means
has failed. It is also employed as
q charm against evil influences.
This custom is probably alluded to
in Psalm wi, 8, "Put thou my tears
into a bottle" The practice was
once universal, as is manifested by
the tear bc!tles which are to DE
found in almost every ancient tomb,
for the ancicnts buried them with
their dead as q proof Of their affec-
ton.

The March Of the Lemminqs.

Few animals are more stupid than
the jennings, a species of rodent in
Norway and Sweden like the COM
mon water rat of America. They
are exceedingly voracious and bite
at anything and everything. 1t is
said that if met by a cart the only
idea OF the lemming would be to
bite the wheel. This Unsuitable ap-
petite makes it q fearful pest. An
army of Jennings will do as much
damage az a swarm of locusts. They
come down in enormous numbers
from the northern districts, where
the food supply has given out, and
march through Scandinavia in two
great armies separated by the Kio-
lens range.

traveller, "a friend and I stopped

CARE OF THE MOUTH.
1t is a Matter OF Importance, Especlal.
~ to Children.

1t ls a Matter OF Importance, Especlal.
~ to Children.
Perhaps no part of the body is so
often neglected as the mouth. Is
pecially is this noticeable in the
case of children. A mother who
will religiously battle her child and
keep its body sweet and clean will
often fail to clean its mouth. 4
newborn infant should have its
mouth washed after each feeding.
A soft cloth wet in a weak solution
OF boracic acid should be used for
this purpose. II this we're always
done, we should rarely find a case
of infantilc sore mouth.
After the teeth come and the
mouth is large enough a small soft
brush should be used. The teeth
and mouth should be thoroughly
cleaned st least twice daily.
In illness, where sordcs and mu-
Gus accumulate rapidly and where
the tongue and lips are parchcd and
still, attention is needed every hour.
The mouth should be kept moist,
and the same treatment Carried out
through the night us through the
day. Boraeic acid solution, lister
inc, lemon jlicc, glyccrin and dis
titled water are all refreshing and
soften the tissues. Where the lips
are chappcd or assures appear a lu.
bricant Of cold cream or stcrilizcd
vaselinc should be applied. Where
the gums are spongy or soft anC
bleed rapidly a few drops Of tincturt
of myrrh added 10 pure water vii
help to harden them. Small squares
of old linen OF soft gauzc should b,
used instead of Il brush where ont
is i'll or weak. These should be I'M
mediately burned after use.
Every part of the mouth should
be cleansed-bchind the wisdom
teeth, the roof Of the mouth ant
under the tongue. Lemon juice ant
water will remove the fur from
thickly coated tongue. Where tn
teeth are sensitive the water shoult
bo slightly warm.-Southcrn Cali

Treatment For a ~vsIid Hair"

A "wild hair" is the most annoy
ing freak of nature q man cain be
afflicted with. It grows in from the
eyelid instead of out and, constantly
brushing against the cyeball, some
times causes an irritation that re-
suits in the loss of sight. To pull it
out gives only temporary relief,
since in q few weeks it comes back as
well grown and strong as ever. The
only way to kill it is to destroy the
sac from which it springs. This is
done by can Of the electric needle,
which is pressed into the sac and a
current turned on. A sharp prick is
felt, and the hair is forever dead.
