Navy In Need of Young Surgeons.
There is a great demand in the navy
for young medical officers. The need Of
assistant surgeons in the medical corps
is very great, there being at the pres
ent time twenty-seven vacancies in
that grade. Surgeon General RiXey is
trying to attract young medical men
into this service. He is now in the
south inspecting a hospital at Pensa-
cola. He intends addressing several
tention of the students the d%esirability
Of a naval career. Not long 6 he de
livered an address at the jefferson
Medical college, in which he dwelt up
on the opportunities for young medical
graduates in the navy.
The work to be performed by the
medical corps in the navy is growing
every year. The authorized strength
of the navy now is about $4,000 and
within the next six years will probably
reach $4,000. The enlistments and re-
enlistments require the constant at
tendance of surgeons to make physical
examinations, and besides this routine
work there are fourteen naval hos
pitfalls, with naval stations. navy yards
and receiving ships, where the services
Of members of the medical corps are

Applicants for admission into this
branch of the service must be between
twenty-one and thirty years of age.

Artistic Wall Paper.

The artistic side of the manufacture
Of wall paper, says the Wall Paper
News, is the development of a very
recent period. In this development
different manufacturers and designers
have had a hand. Some of these are
living today and deserve all honor for
their labors. If any one man has had
more to do with this work than any
other that mar was William Morris,
When William Morris first entered
upon his work, there was very little
that was artistic in wall paper. When
he finished zhis work, wall paper was
q thing of beauty and a joy forever.
The period in which Morris worked lay
between the years 1856 and 1896. Thus
the influence of William Morris was
so recent as to be almost present with
us today, and it is not too much to say
that not a line of wall paper is manu-.
featured in this country or in England
that does not show marked traces OF
his taste and originality.

The queen and Her Cows.

The kings of Bavaria have long de-
rived a profit from certain breweries in
Munich, and now Queen Wilhelmina Of
Holland is making money by selling
milk and butter. Her first step in this
direction was when she induced her
husband, Prince Henry, to buy several
cows, which were placed ON the rich
land adjoining the castle of Loo. The
cows prospered exceedingly, and the
queen vas so pleased with the success
of the experiment that she instructed
the manager of her estates to visit sew
eral stock farms and to purchase thirty
of the best cows that could be obtained
in Holland. This has been done, and
milk and butter of excellent quality are
now being sold from the royal farm.

Scale Insect. and, Fungi.

So much has been written concern.
ing scale insects and fungi on trees that
a few lines only are now contemplated
to bespeak attention to the subject
from those who should be interested.
From one end Of the country to the
other trees are becoming full of scale
and other insects. and this evil, togeth-
er with that of fungi. requires constant
attention. 1t is not alone from nurs-
cries that the evils are spread. Private
orchards are infested in almost or quite
every state, and from these trees birds
carry the insects on their feet from one
tree to another. Almost all nurseries
are fairly clean of insects, some OF
them entirely SO. The inspection laws
of most states compel yearly examina-
lions of the trees. and. besides this, the
nurseryman's interests call for clean
stock. Every n having fruit trees or
bushes should be prepared to meet the
foe. The best thing to do at the pres
ent time is to write to the advertisers
of sprayers for their pamphlets con
corning the subject. Very many that
I have seen give formulas for making

Reed as a Talker.

William Allen White of Emporia,
Kan, took luncheon with Thomas B.
Reed at the Century club, New York,
the day President Mckinley died. aft
er a simple meal had been put away"
MI. White relates. "Reed pushed back
his chair and began to talk. For three
long hours he discoursed most beauti-
fully upon life, it's uncertainty, its real
rewards and it's checks and balances,
upon fame and it's accidents and it's
emptiness, upon death and immortali-
ty and God and all his ways and works.
1t was a kind of funeral grafton the
like of which few men are privileged
to hear. At the end Of it all the big
man threw back his head and looked
up at the great oak rafters of the room
for a long while and then let his hands
fall heavily on the short arms of the
chair as he sighed: Eli. no! What does
It all mean? Where is it going? Who
are we? What is this unfathomed mys-
terry we call life? God knows! 1
don't.'"-Kansas City Star.

In 1886 Willard Burson made his her

Greek township, Ind. White settlers
moved into the locality, and Burson,
not wanting neighbors. shouldered his
fintlock gun and with his wife and
children disappeared into the wilder
ness. A middle aged mar came to the
place a few days ago and identified
himself a Burson's son. He went
quietly at midnight to where the old
dead sycamore tree lay and commenced
digging. The farmers living near and
who saw him at work say he uncov.

had s~iXty-seven years ago. Several
English gold coins were found on the
ground next morning, where they had
fallen from the rotten box.

The Farmer. Account..

In almost every community there are
one or two persons who have some
knowledge of bookkeeping, inventories
and accounts. if indeed they may not
be retired experts in this class OF work.
1t would pay many a farmer to hire
such a person to make out for him an
itemized statement of his assets and
liabilities. so that he can start in fresh
with an exact knowledge as to just
where he stands. Then, even if no reg
ular books are kept. a similar invento-
ry at the end Of the year will show the
farmer whether he has gained or lost.
No business except farming is good
enough to stand the carelessness in the
matter Of financial accounts such as
characterizes so many farmers.-Amer-

Mr.. reeds suggestion.

A territorial delegate from the. south

like a fool in the things.

he saw the suit, but he didn't say any
