An interesting experiment In natur>

the .plant-ttcks lirst Introduced about
80 years ago with cattle from South
America have multiplied till they have
become an almost intolerable pest.
A number Of ordinary English star
lings have been introduced into the
island, in the hope that they may so
far retain their native tastes as to
take kindly to the task Of destroying
these omnipresent and repulsive crea,
lures, which in comparatively few
years have made the forests and pas
lures of the island almost impasso Die.
It will be curious to see how the
starlings fall in with their tntroducers'
expectations, and how far they sue

nuisance they are intended to combat.

A Model for Mothers.

With unceasing devotion and zeal
Queen Wilhelmina's brave and clever
mother-who during Wilhelmina's
later girlhood was the Queen Regent
did whatever she could to make her
daushter's education a truly excellent
one. Among the names Of those who
taught the young queen, Queen EN-
mas name deserves a fair place. II
was the Queen Regent herself who
regulated and superintended all the
lessons of Wilhelmina, being present
at most of them and taking quite as
much interest in them as her little
daughter.-October st. Nicholas.

REVIVAL OF THE STONE AGE.

Much Of That Material Now Used In
London Building.
The "store age" is fast reviving In
London, though in a more welcome
form than that of old. There is a
growing tendency to spend money
more freely on business premises, and
consequently architects, generally
speaking, are enjoying more scope in
designing structures with imposing
elevations. To obtain the most hand
some effect white stone has become
the favorite and wherever monetary
considerations will permit this is al
most universally stipulated for in
specifications.
IF this liberality continues" said a
prominent contractor, London will
within a comparatively short period
become the finest city in the world,
intellectually speaking. At the pres
ent time two-thirds of the contracts
in our hands specify for the use OF
stone frontages."

Don't Look for the Flaws.

Don't look for flaws as you go through
life:
And even when you find them
It is wise and kind to be somewhat blind,
And look for the virtue behind them:
For the cloudiest night has hint of the
light
Somewhere in it's shadows hiding;
It is better far to hunt for a star
Than the spots on the sun abiding.
The current OF lie runs every way
To the bosom Of Gods great ocean;
Don't set your force gainst the rivers
course
And think to alter it's motion.
Don't waste a curse on the universe;
Remember it lived before you;
Don't butt at the storm with your puny
form.
But bend, let it fly DER you.
The world will never adjust itself
To suit your whim to the letter;
Some things must go wrong your whole
life long.
And the sooner you know it the better.
It is folly to fight with the Infinite: :
And go under at last in the wrestle.
The wiser man shapes into Gods plan,
AS the water shapes into the vessel
ELLA Wheeler Wilcox in Progressive
Age

Science VS.. Disease.

Five deadly diseases have been
shorn of their worst terrors by the
method of treatment introduced by
Pasteur. In hydrophobia, which pre-
viously had been uniformly fatal, the
mortality under antitoxin treatment Is
one in five hundred. In diphtheria
the number of deaths have been re-
duced from one in two to one tn
eight. In lockjaw the serum will pre-
vent the disease if used soon after the

Wife's ingenious Plan.

Years ago Sir ko1ger Hill and his
son lay dying at the same time. 1t
was of the utmost Importance to the
sons wife to keep her husband alive
beyond his father, just sufficient time
to enable him to sign a will. This
she did by killing one pigeon after an
other, keeping his feet incased in the
body Of the hot steaming bird and as
soon as it became chilled changing
it for another. The plan was success
full and the property was left to the
ingenious wife who was SO soon q
widow after the execution of her plan.

smile upon his face was too apparent
not to be noticed, and the fact that he
had been made happy father was
duly: announced. In a --"ry few mo.
ments, however, his face resumed its
usual pensiveness, ard he exclaimed:
Zach Colt! How time flies. Just
think, year from now that child will
be one year old!"-Philadelphia Led

Wonderful Salt Formations,

Some remarkable salt formations
are found extending for thirty miles
along the Virginia river in Nevada.
The salt forms mountains of crystal,
and is so pure and clear that fine
print can be read through foot OF
it. This region was evidently once
occupied by great salt lake, as close
by are some wonderful wells, one of
which, IS feet in diameter, contains
water so intensely saline that per.
son bathing there will float like a
cork.
