ITS time for you, to go to bed; you'll

Medical Value Of Spices.

In tropical countries, between lati-
tudes twenty three degrees south and
twenty three degrees north of the
equator. the Inhabitants use spices
with their food as we use pepper. A
certain beneficial effect is caused to
the digestion: namely. stimulant and
carminative. says the Journal of Trop-
zeal Medicine. But there is a second
airy effect which is perhaps even more
beneficial. seen in the fact that the
volatile oil passes out from the body,
mostly unchanged, through various
channels. but chiefly through the
lungs and skin, so that in the tropics.
nature has provided antiseptics which
in passing out by the lungs and skin
kill the hurtful microbes which might
be breathed in and also prevent, to a
great extent. the attack of mosquitoes.
1t is well-known fact that insects,
including mosquitoes. dislike volatile
oils, and will probably not attack an
individual using spices as a food ad-
junct. 1t is interesting to note that
spices grow where there is a high rain
fall combined with much heat-condi-
tons under which malarial influences
prevail. The author quotes various
authorities in regard to the antlseptic,
antipyretic and other properties of arc

We've got to give transfers when they

"A man who travels with me quite

1t is IA very important thing to know
how to treat children when they are

SALMON IN THE FAR NORTH.
AIcutian Islands Waters Swarming
with the Fish.

with the Fish.
Reports of the Manning expedition
to the western Aleutian islands last
have never been made public. give
glowing accounts of the prospects of
salmon fishing i'll that part of Alaska,
says the Stka Alaskan. Capt. Nc
Clelan. who commanded the cutter,
found the streams of Attn island and
other islands of the archipelago crowd
cd with salmon, and he believes there
is an excellent chance for the estab-
iishment of canneries there.
1t has been known for "A long time
that salmon are almost as plentiful in
Northern Alaska waters. where there
are no canneries, AS they are in South
eastern Alaska. where the cannery
business is most prosperous. 1t has
been quite natural, however, that the
business should be established first in
the places nearest Il market. and the
most readily accessible early in the
season. The climate of the Aleutians
is entirely favorable. and it is believed
that capital will soon be invested there
to develop the fisheries.
1t has already been demonstrated
that sheep and cattle can be success
fully grazed in the Aleutian chain. and
the general public is beginning to APP
preciate the fact that most of these
islands are no farther north than a
point midway between London and Ed
inburgh. 1t is claimed by some and
disputed by others that what the gulf
stream does for Northern England and
Scotland the Japan current does for
the Aleutan islands At any rate,
there are many signs of a great com
mcrcial development in the western Is
lands of Alaska
A circular has been issued by the
Department of Commerce republishing
the law governing Alaska salmon fish
cries and giving the new regulations
under that law. With one exception,
these regulations are about the same
as those in force last year. The change
which was ordered some weeks ago,
however. was Of the highest impOr-
lance. for it removed the restriction
which made it illegal to take salmon
in Southeastern Alaska waters before
the LIST of July of each year.
1t is expected, as a result of the
modified regulations, that the catch
of salmon in Southeastern Alaska will
be greatly increased this season.
The last section of these regula tons
providing for propagation of salmon
by cannerymen is. of course. almost
impossible to comply with. and this
fact is appreciated by the fishery ex-
perts. The true view of the matter
was taken by the Jordan commission,
and it was recommended that govern
ment hatcheries be established. 1t was
declared that the cannerymen were un-
able to plant the required number of
fry in each case or to maintain the
requisite number Of hatcheries. Con-
gress gave no relief at the last session,
however. and this section of the regu-
lations will therefore be allowed to re-
main in force for the present.

Then she went into the kitchen. sat

of the path. Frank sprang out and

Frank helped an old lady out of the
wagon and led her up the walk; she
was so small, and her back so bent,
that her head scarcely came above

How to Water Plants.

Improper watering Is often the cause
Of failure with plants. The usual plan
is to daily sprinkle Il small quantity of
water In each pot containing plant.
If those who water plants in this
manner, as most beginners do, could
see the florist water his plants, they
might fear the plants were being
drowned but they would learn les
son in plant culture that would be Of
much benefit. The florist waters his
plants with a few exceptionsy either
daily, every other day or twice a week.
according to the weather. and when
the watering Is done the soil about the
plant Is completely saturated. The pot
being well provided at the bottom with
drainage materal-usually broken
pieces of pots-the surplus water
passes Off yet the soil is so wet that
the roots can absorb from it all the
moisture required for the best develop
ment Of top growth. One watering Of
this kind week will do vastly more
good to the plants than the daily
sprinkling so generally practised--

Health and Beauty Hints.

Ammonia is an excellent remedy for
the bites and stings of insects. 1t
should be applied Immediately, if pos
sible.
Keep sick person well supplied
with clean bedclothing. as it is not
only sanitary but refreshing to have
clean linen.
In any long illness keep plenty Of
disinfectant around the room to render
it fresh and to avoid the heaviness that
is apt to occur in room which is
constantly occupied.
1t is said that women pass too much
time thinking Of their hair, of their
complexion of their double chin and of
their other physical peculiarities. and
too little worrying about their teeth.
A bath of warm olive oil Is a won

and finger tips. if followed by a thor
Ough washing in very hot water and a
good soap. Re careful to dry the hands
thoroughly afterward
A bath in warm water in which
teaspoonful Of bicarbonate of soda has
been dissolved is excellent for prickly
