SOME IMPonTANr woRK.

The International Sanitary Confer ence, which has just concluded it's ses- sions in Paris, did much. Among other things it resolved that the period of surveillance in case of plague shall be five days instead of ten. Greater facil- ities will be given to commerce without diminution of sanitary precautions. The representatives of the different Powers will take collective action to compel Turkey to obey the stipulations agreed upon. Some of these affect the Sanitary Council at Constantinople. Hitherto the Porte has been represented by eight members. Hereafter 1t will have four.
 On the other hand. the appointment of
 the inspector general of the sanitary
 service, as also that of the inspector
 will be subject to the ratification of the
 Turkish government. The decisions of
 the council voted by a majority will be
 definitely binding. Rumania, which is recognized as a maritime State, will now be represented on the council. The international council at Tangier will be invited to attend to the rigorous appli- cation of the sanitary regulations. The new convention provides for the manner in which any outbreak of cholera oi plague is to be proclaimed by the coun- try where it, occurs; in what circum'
 stances the locality is to be considered as infected and afterwards as free from infection, and the measures to be taker against infected countries by such coun. tries as are free from infection. It con tains special stipulations for those coun tries situated outside Europe. There are regulations for pilgrimages, ant very ample and practical provisions fol
 maritime sanitation.
 If disease knows what is good for it self it will now flee away without wait ling to be assailed by international san itary science. -...4:.

It stands afar midst happy, sunlit fields, A little farmhouse, brown and old, With ancient, ivy covered, buttressed
 walls,
 And straw matched roof of gold; And l. a wandsrer from the dusty town, Grown weary of it's heavy ways, Wistful, from of the hot white road, look
 down
 And long for the old days. For there the nights were blessed with
 quiet sleep,
 The days were filled with happy cares, :, And there the skies seemed eyer blue, ana
 there
 Was time for peace and prayers; While youth and laughter, joy and hope' ana
 lore Sang in my heart happy song. An me! song that's hushed for eYernsore' The crowded streets among. And now I stand and gaze, with heavy
 heart,
 Across dear fields in longing sore, To where another woman, happier Tar, Looks from the low half-door. Oh, little farmhouse, old, and broWn' anu
 sweet . !,' h wake when all the worlds at rest T, And think of you, and long for the o'u peace .- And the untroubled breast!

THE TURKEF TO THE RESCUE.

Geese saved Rome, and perhaps tur- keys will save the South of our own be- loved country. The talk is that the turkey likes the eotton-boll weeyil for breakfast food or at any other meal, and that the Texas cotton growers are buying all the turkeys they can get.
 As the turkey is great gobbler, even when it is female, the eotton-boll wee- vii is going to have trouble if the tur- key is really after it. It will do we'll to ernigrate before 1t is slain. If the tur- key is really on the weevirs trail bless ings on the turkey, which has come to
 the rescue of the cotton growers and
 the discouraged Agricultural depart
 ment, which solemnly and sadly report
 ed awhile ago that there was no remedy
 for the weevil evil in sight.
 There may be some prejudice against turkeys fattened on cotton-boll weevils but they can be labeled Domestic" or something like that. and they will
 doubtless be as good to eat under that name as under any other. It may be re- membered that not long ago it was said that many os the splendid Rhode Isl- and turkeys got their gorgeous fat by coming over the border into Connecti- cut and eating tobacco worms. Of ! course this never was so, but the talk didn't affect the sale Or the eating of the turkeys.

An Indian who has just returned from England expresses surprise at the ig- rorance he found there. He went to London to take part in wild western melodrama. He ran across a news paper man in Philadelphia, and the latter says it was amusing to hear him describe the ignorance regarding his race that exists abroad. "An English man.. he said, thinks that red man can run from 200 to 225 miles day without effort. He thinks an Apache can oyertake a deer. In fact, read in London short story describing how in fifteen mile run an Apache caught a deer, choked it to death and ate its heart raw. The English believe that an Indian is so generous he would give away the clothes on his back. I was accosted by hosts of beggars in London, and they couldn't understand why I didn't hand out half-crown to each of them, They also think an Indian will endure the severest pain without fiinching, out of pride. A young Eng fish girl stuck a pin in my leg at 8 restaurant one night. and was sur prised when said Ouch and swore.

A favorite method of suicide in Japan lately has been to leap over certain wa- terfalls. So frequent have such occur rences become that police are now con- stantly stationed in their neighborhood, and notice boards are erected bearing inscriptions in large letters, Of which the following is an example: ''Do not drown yourself here! Intended suicides are warned that heaven disapproves of the utilization of Kegon waterfall for the purpose. This is certified to on the best priestly authority. and serious con- sequences in the hereafter are guaran- teed. To drown here is also forbidden by the presectural authorities"

Such a scene of unrestrained revelry had never been witnessed in the country before.

HIS TRAVELLING BATHTUB.
A Tale of Modern Luxury Told ny q Modest Mnn That Had a
 Blush ln 1t.

"A few weeks ago." said modest man, according to the New York Sun, sI was invited to the new home of a friend who is very rich. We had no more than exchanged greetings than he began to show me the wonders Of his house.
 s'The architect and the electricians must have sat up nights to think of all the novel conveniences. The food came to the dining-room on what might be described as silver fatcars, which ran noiselessly over ap electric railway from the buffers pantry. The head of the house could change the temperature of room by pressing a button. The electric lights were marvels.
 Presently we went upstairs in an electric elevator that looked like room Tn my friends room he showed me his system of buttons for lights, servants bells and all that. and then he came to what he considered his greatest triumph-something that was his own idea.
 He explained, prefatorily, that when he arose in the morning itmight be i'll to leave his room and take 8 chance on lower temperature in go- ing to his bath, so be had arranged a little railroad that ran from his bath room to his bedroom. All he had to do was to press lever, a panel in the wall would open and in would slide the tub on nice, nickel-plated railroad. His man, of course, would have filled the tub with water at the proper heat.
 Just to show you what great scheme it is,' said my friend, I'll bring in the tub' So he pulled the silver lever, panel in the mahogany wall slid back and, sure enough, in came the tub.
 And what was more," said the mod est man; blushing at the remembrance, sin came my friends wife, who hap pened to be in the tub"
