A fact not easily explainable is that
butchers are particularly prone to-
alcoholism, and that deaths from this
cause among them seem to be rapidly
increasing. But it is not surprising
to find that alcoholism and kindred
diseases reap a large harvest among
brewers, saloonkeepers and others
who have to do with the manufacture
or sale OF intoxicants.
Brewers die about so per cent faster,
It is said, than the average man who
works at regular calling. and sa-
loonkeepers die seven times as fast

"The Cruel Plant"

Our picture illustrates a curious
Canadian climber upon which there
has been bestowed the name of the
Cruel Plant" because of the way in
which it treats certain butterflies. It
is an autumnal bloOmer, and the in
sects, attracted by its perfume, hover
round and push their probosces into
its corolla, on honey-sipping intent.
But the act is fatal, for the poor flies

TATTOO MARKS SERVE TO IDENTIFY ANARCHISTS.

England at the present time is al
most the only country of Europe where
anarchists are allowed to conspire at
ease. France, on the other hand, keeps
numerous secret police corps, the
only duty Of which is to closely watch
the compagnons, particularly those
who are foreigners.

Ienges the World.
George A. Jones of Philadelphia
challenged the world to produce his
equal as a whittier. The challenge
brought a reply from B. F. Clay of
Fernwood, who offered in evidence a
wonderful display of his work.
Mr.. Clay is IS years old and a ma
chinist by trade. In the illustrations
given here are shown two varieties Of
chains, each OF which he cut out Of
one piece of wood.
The fve-sided link, or anchor chain,
shown is of cedar. The idea was
taken by Mr.. Clay from a watch chain.
Another section of this chain is the
eight-link production referred TO above,
with a fancy bit forming a pentagon,
the hollowed-out inside containing a
double loop knot made of the sticks

The pentagon, with FIVE sides open,
revolves on the core.

pine Tree Bread.

Pine tree bread is being eaten by
Finlanders, and is almost the only food
that can be obtained by them just

It is almost as hard as stone, and no

a condition as when fresh
