Many people have forgotten that the Monroe Doctrine was first outlined by Great Britain. The United States can better take care of itself than can Canada, and than England can care for Canada. While the Monroe Doc urine stands, Canada, with her inn mense boundaries difficult to garrison and protect, is safe from European aggression.

nTHIRTY POISONOUS PLANTS.
Government List Which includes
Many Varieties Supposed to
BE Harmless.

Send to the department of agricul-
ture at Washington, d. c., for free
pamphlet entitled Thirty Poisonous
Plants" Every one who loves to roam
in fields and forest should know the
poisonous plants, says Mature and
Science 2 in ST. Nicholas. 1t is very for
tunate for those who are found OF
rambling through the fields and woods
that most of the plants in that govern
ment list are poisonous only when eat
en-. Nearly all cases of skin poisoning
are from poison ivy or poison sumac.
1t will doubtless surprise many who
read this pmaphlet of Thirty Poison
Gus Plants" to learn that the lady
slippers or moccasin flowers are in
cluded in the list. A poisonous oil
similar to that of poison ivy is secreted
in the leaf hairs, especially at the fruit
ing season. The leaves and flowers of
the lily-of-the-valley are also poison
Gus when taken internally. The taste
however, is very bitter, SO no one is
likely to eat them.
The beautiful mountain laurel is So
often eaten by sheep, resulting in th eir
death, that the farmer calls it sheep
laurel, or poison-laurel.

GLACIAL ACE WEARS END.
Rorce of Ponderous Ice Fields seems
to BE Diminishing Every
Year.

European engineers have been con
graduating themselves that, although
the coal mines may fail, they have in
the Alpine glaciers ineXhaustible
sources of energy. The melting of the
glacier ice gives rise to mountain tor
rents whose fall is being utilized more
and more, especially since the electric
transmission of power has moreinearly
approached perfection. The glacier is
thus mine of stored energy and its ice
has been somewhat poetically termed
"white coal" says Success.
But if the researches of some recent
French and German scientific men are
to be relied on the glaciers may fail us
some day, as we'll as the coal mines. 1t
appears that the glaciers, not only of
the Alps, but also Of other continental
mountain ranges, are shrinking in
some cases imperceptibly, and in 9TH
ers almost gisibly OF course this may
be only one swing of the pendulum and
continued observation may show that
it win be followed in future years by
a proportionate increase, so it may be
well not to indulge in too dismal fore
bodings.

WHERE TRAMPs LUxURIATE.
Summer Cottages on the Atlantic
Coast Used by the HobOs as
Winter Quarters.

All along the Atlantic coast, from
Florida to Maine almost, there are
scores Of summer hotels, with the cot
tages annexed to them, sheltering
guests who pay neither for rent, food
nor fuel They have no smiling and
effulgent clerk to bid them welcome
and put their valuables in the safe;
no bell boys at the call; no walters to
tip; no telephone connection with a
nearby livery stable Their names
are not published in the newspapers.
They seek seclusiop, not notoriety.
They keep themselves warm without
fires; for where there is fire there is
generally smoke. and smoke would be-
tray them. When darkness falls their
day is Gone, for light shining through
the shuttered windows would soon
make them homeless, or transfer them
from a hotel to Jail.
All this, reports an eastern exchange,
is on the authority of tramp who
has been through the mill, as he <ex-
pressed it to a constable in Conhecti-
cut few days ago, when confronted
with an opportunity of going to work
for the state or telling his tale and
getting out of the state to save the
constable's reputation.

SUICIDES IN THE ARMY.
The Number Is Decreasing Every
where Except in the RUS
sian Empire.

A French student has been investi-
eating the subject of suicides in the
armies of Europe, and has reached
some curious results. Everywhere,
except in Russia, the number of mill
tary suicides is decreasing; in that
country, however, the average for
some years past has been 1913 in every
100000. In France the proportion
now is 1s in 100000; in Italy "a; in
Germany. SO; and in Austria, 1O5 to
every 100000. In civil life in this
country the Germans provide the
largest proportion of suicides; it is
curious to find them surpassed in Eu-
rope by the Austrian and Russian sol
diers.
The different arms of the services
commit suicide in differing proper
tions. In the French army self-mur-
der is commonest among the men of
the Foreign Legion, of whom 80 in
100000 commit it yearly, and least
common among those of the Garde
Republicaine, only IA of whom kill
themselves to each 100000. The
French cavalry provides more sui
cides than does the infantry, the in
fantry more than the artillery, and
the engineers the smallest'mumber
In the British army the suicide rate
is about 23 to the 100000 at home and
80 per 10O, 900 in India. In 1S98-99 the
rate in our regular army was about
AZ per 100000: it is lower now, the

How nlrd. Are killed for Hats

According to Mr.. w. E. D. Scott, Of
Princeton university, there is special
cruelty in the manner of killing birds
in Florida for use on women's hats.
The huntsmen take advantage of the
devotion of the parent birds to their
young by lying in wait near the nests,
before the young birds are able to fly,
knowing that their cries will bring
back the parents again and again, in
spite of the disturbance made by the
slaughterers. With FlYeMt rifles the
