NEW ZEALAND'S RABBITS.
Formerly a Pest, Now a Source of
Revenue-SSO5,O 900 Worth
Shipped Last Year.

y Rabbits, which have been the pest Oh
Australia and New Zealand for many
years, have now become source OF large
revenue. Frozen rabbits to the value
of over $S05, 900 were exported from VIC
toria. New Zealand, last year, in addi-
ton to $4,000 worth Of preserved raD-
bits. This business Is daily increasing.
Now that the trapping industry is sucn
an important one, employing as 1t does
several thousand hands, and is largely
effective in keeping the rabbit pest in
check. the chances are that the meth
DDS of compulsory suppression now en-
forced on landholders will at least be
moderated by the government.
The rabbits in Australia and New
Zealand were originally shipped from
England, and it is almost impossible to
keep them out of the cattle ranches.
Fences have been built around these
vast stations with a wire netting sunk
IS inches below the surface to prevent
the rabbits from getting inside, but as
soon as grass becomes short on the
outside, "Mr. Bupnie" will burrow I'M
der the wire netting and eat up the grass
on the inside.
Rabbits ig this country rarely burrow,
but are to be found in stumps OF trees
and under fallen timber. In and about
Chicago, where land is divided for build
ing purposes, rabbits make their homes
under the wooden sidewalks, and can
be easily turned out by good dog
Such, however, is not the habit Of the
Australian pest.

SOFT COPE

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs Of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say'red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to dc
their proper work.

white Children I'm Oklahoma Initiate
Their Red-Skinned PlRynates-
A Teachers Difficulties.

The first public school at the Red
Store, a frontier Indian trading post,
in Oklahoma, as old as the military post
of Fort Sill itself, has revealed the fact
that white children through association
with Indian children have taken on far
more Of the customs, manners and
speech Of the Indians than the latter
have Of their white playmates.
Nearly all the white children ofthe dis
trict have been reared among the lndi-
ans, associating with them and attend
ing school with them. They have
learned to paint their cheeks, put feath-
ers in their hair, wear gaudy sashes and
brass finger rings and earrings and shoot
the arrow to the mark.
Now that a district school has been
established the teacher has met the
greatest difficulty of her life in teaching
these little Indians the ways Of civiliza-
ton. They have the highest regard
for authority, having had 1t instilleo
by mission teachers in the Indian
school they have attended, but they

PROFITS FROM CEMETERY.
Sum of 1900, 900 Received by the Mas
sachusetts horticultural So
ciety Since 1881.

So much curiosity was awakened by
the statement made at the annual meet
ing Of the Massachusetts Horticultural
society that the society had received
more than 100000 from the Mount Au-
burn cemetery corporation that 1t was
decided to give out an explanation OF
why the money was paid.
It appears that In 1929 there was not
an ornamental cemetery in the world,
and several Boston men, including Dan
lei Webster and Edward Everett, felt the
need of beautifully laid out burial
place. BY 1881 the idea had taken shape,
after having been presented to the Hortl-
cultural society, to which all the men
belonged.
Seventy-two acres Of land, which now
forms about the central part Of Mount
Auburn, was bought, and was conse-
Grated on September "a Of the same year.
Friction arose, however, between the
cemetery committee and the Horticul-
tural society proper, so that in 1884 the
two had to separate.
The terms Of the separation PROVIDED
that the proceeds of the sale of any lots
in the 70 acres should be divided BE-
tween the society and the cemetery COM
mittee, one-quarter to the society and
three-quarters to the Mount Auburn cor
poration.
1t was thus that the $500 900 has been
turned over to the Horticultural society
by the Mount Auburn committee.

Importance in the early settlement OF
the frontier. Several buildings have
been located here. The chimney, of sub
stantial limestone masonry, remains a
mute witness Of the onward sweep OF
civilization, and the vast changes of two
centuries in the environment OF the
cataract. The English, in 1850, erected
a stockade here, and named 1t Fort
Schlosser," in honor Of the officer in
command.

King Edward VII. has given his con-

It seems odd to Americans that an
uncle, not a guardian, should have the
power to forbid the marriage OF his
niece. But the king of England mas
such a power by act of parliament
This act provides that all descend

So King Edward may forbid the mar

What an unspeakable bore 1t must
be to be a king. And what slavery

love upon the objects loved. But IL
is admitted that the law creates no prac-

Is good-natured and doesn't exercise the
