Bermuda Bananas.

The dwarf banana of Bermuda first came from the Canaries. The fruit is little larger than a man finger. and is compact in texture and rich in flavor The fruit grown in summer is of higher quality than that grown in winter-if the word winter can be applied to a land iH which the mercury rarely registers as low as 50 degrees and in which frost is unknown The single bunch that the tree bears should weigh. of this dwarf sort. from 9 to 60 or even 70 pounds. There is almost no expense required in maintaining the plantation after it Is once established. and the gross annual income should be from s400 to $500 per acre The little bananas are consumed entirely by the local markets for Der muda is visited by tourists il has large garrison. and the resident people-some over II 900 all told-are fond of the fruit Country Life in America

How Nc Grow

What are inc proportions of the Ideal human body" The veXed question has never been answered exclusively
 \ eorollary Of il is this: What are tie proportions of the average healthy man or woman as We find them Nor even 10 this has a reply been given
 However. We are approaching t Sci eEti-ts have made myriads of measure ments of the stature of man. and some Of them are quoted by Fleet Surgeon Williams in the annual report on the health of the navy just issued
 To begin with. the bo ywhen horn ls about half an inch taller than the s.sl This difference is maintained ill rear the age of l3. when. in this ee4n- ;sv and America the average girl is taller and heavier than the boy. This haltng so 10 speak, on the part of the male is speedily recovered and he again outruns the female in size.
 Al the period of full development the mans average height. compared with the Woman's average, is as l6 to l5l
 Both men and women maintain their maximum height till the age of 50 years. when they begin to grow shorter. until at 90 they have lost three inches.
 The reason for this dwindling is at tributed 10 the shrinking of the soft parts between the bones and to the stoop gradually acquired by old people. London Leader

GRAND CANYON OF THE GUNNISoN that tie tunnel will be the means of re- claiming.
 The supply Of water from the Uneom- pahere is only fair al best but what it. will do is shown about this town, which with a population of 200 is the largest in the valley Here are fine orchards 3f apples, peaches and pears. yielding as high as S400 an acre Further down the valley there are only alkali soil and sage brush. such as you will see for hours in crossing the desert
 In 1900 party of residents of the Un- com moahgre valley made the first investi- gation of the Gunnison as source of water supply They explored the ean- yon for ? perilous days. and succeeded in getting only half way through il. The record of their journey is succession of hairbreadth escapes
 They returned convinced that the project would be too costly 10 be prac- ticable Later. in 1900. there was a cursory investigation by the govern ment and in 1901 the first systemaIi ie survey was begun by A l. Fellows dis trict engineer of the Reclamation serv- ice
 NIT. Fellows is the man 10 whom tho Gunnison tunnel will owe it's existence. He explored and surveyed The region for three years. found that the tunnel was feasible and selected two locations for it. of which that known as the upper lo- cation has been finally chosen
 The cost of constructing the tunnel Mir. Fellows estimated al 8. 500 o0o The next step was to secure the approval of the secretary of the interior and the nee essary appropriation which the passage of the national irrigation act in lS92 ren- dered possible
 MT. Fellows says that if will take three years to complete the tunnel, of which two years will be devoted 10 boring and one year to cenereGng The bore is through granite and shale, in about equal quantities,
 The tunnel will be about 12 feet square and will have fall of two feet in thou sand. Its length will be about 30,0oe feet approximately 5a4 miles. At the diyerting point in the Gunnison. diver sion gates will be constructed. There will also be provision for aforest reserve at the headwaters of the river to insure the permaneney of the supply.

RACE DONE?
Not a Bit of It.

A man who thought his race was run made food find that brought him bdeh to perfect health.
 Che year ago l was unable to per form any labor, m fact l was told by my phy hysicians that they could do noth- Ing further for me I was fast sink Ing away, for an attack of grip had left my stomach so weak it could not di- ttst any food sufficient to keep me alive
 lhere l was just wasting away, growing thinner every day and weak TT really being snuffed out simply be- cause could not get any nourishment from food.
 Then my sister got after me to try Grape-Nuts food which had done much good for her. and she finally persuaded me, and although no other food had done me the least bit of good. my stomach handled the Grape Nuts from the first, and this food sup P4led the nourishment l had needed. Ill three months l was so strong l moved from Albany to San Francisco ana now on my three meals of Grape Nuts and cream every day l am strong and vigorous and do fifteen hours work.
 T believe the siekest person in lhe world could do as do, eat three meals of nothing but Grape-Nuts and cream, and soon be on their feet again III me flush of best health like me.
 Not only am l in perfect physical health again. but my brain is stronger ana clearer than it ever was on the Old diet. l hope you will write to the names l send you about Grape-Nuts, Tor want to see my friends well and strong.

AN IRRIGATION FEAT
A COLORADO DESERT IS TO BE
 MADE To BLOOM.
To Do This Tunnel Six Miles Long Must Be Cut Through the Noun tains-A Government
 Project.

The greatest irrigation project ever undertaken by the United States gov. ernment was begun recently near Mont rose. Col. The reclamation service of the government proposes to divert the Gunnison river which now Hsthrough q canyon between walls of rock 5000 feet high, though a tunnel almost six miles long. into the t.neompahgre val ley. where lJ6000 acres of arid lands will be rendered fertile by is waters. The difficulty of the project iies in the boring Of the tunnel through the Nernal Mesa. the tabIeaud that fdfms one side of the Grand canyon of the Gunnison and separates il from the Uneompahefe valley There is nothing 10 equal it in the wonderful story of Irrigation in America. and in American raIIroading only the Hoosic tunnel approehes it in length
 The Cncompahgre valley lies in south west Colorado and comprises parts of Montrose, Ouray and Delta counties The valley. the river that divides it and the mountains that flank it were all named after the Uneompahgre Utes. the aborieines of this region
 The valley is about 3o miles long and averages nine miles in width Some of it is now irrigated by the Uneompahgre river. but this tract comprises only about 10000 acres, while there are 150, ,000 acres
