and ears all directed towards the point of interest. Once we met farmer go- ing to his work, and again we met some children who were looking for black berries, and nothing would induce the little wolf to approach any of them. He ran off to distance, and there sat on his launches to watch the strangers. At other times, if called him, he would come at q gallop, and either Jump up on me or roll over on his back, puppy-like. that I might earess him. If l sat down. he would sit down by me, with his mouth open and his long ton que lolling out. If sat longer than he cared to wait, he whined unessily until started again. Sometimes he would lie down close to me and tug at my coat or leggings. <...- s
 During our walk, we passed lake, but, unlike the young bear. Romulus did not seem to like the water. He went in far enough, to wet his feet, and after that he contented himself with scraping holes in the mud along the bank. ..|..
 As we. were coming home, my com panion spied a large toad, hopping across the road, and quickly ran and picked it up in his teeth. But he drop ped it even more quickly. for the acrid secretion in the toad's skin was evil dently very disgusting to him. and for half an hour he frothed at the mouth and shook his head in his efforts to rid himself of the nauseating taste.

MAKE WAY FoR HER,

Make way for Woman, promptly and las gracefully as you can. If you don't she will make a way for herself, and if you happen to be stupidly and obsti- nately in it you will fare much as the foolish and putting goat does in the way of the automobile. Her latest achievement is highly significant. We read that Dr. Frances c. Williams has obtained control of all the coal lands in the Coaldale district of Nevada. She has organized a trust capital of $5,OOO,- 900 and the railroad companies that are dependent upon the Coaldale section for fuel will have to make the best ar arrangements they can with pr. Will Hams.
 Dr. Williams is a pioneer in a field which Woman will doubtless soon be frequent in. Of course for awhile she will have to be mere imitator, for man has had more practice in trust making than she has, And for long time the Standard Oil Company will probably make her tired while it excites her ambition. But she will eventually arrive and be the boss. It is interest ing to notice that woman-Ida M. Tarbell-is now attacking the Standard oil Company, and doing 1t, we are bound to say, quite as sensibly and eff ficiently as Thomas Lawson is. .s....

The Chinese know a thing or two. They have g. way of matching the spawn of fish, and thus protecting 1t from those accidents which generally destroy a large portion of it. The fish errlen collect from the margin and sur- face of water all those gelatinous masses which contain the spawn of fish, and after they have found a suf- ficient quantity they fill with it the shell of a hens fresh. egg, which they have previously emptied, stop up the hole and put it under a sitting fowl. At the expiration of a certan number of days they break the she'll in water warmed by the sum-. The young fry are presently matched, and are kept in pure water till they are large enough to be thrown into the pond with the old fish, The sale of spawn for this pur- pose forms an important branch of trade in China. ..

The death rate from consumption in New England at the present time Is somewhat less than twenty per 1000 living inhabitants. The death rate from this cause has diminished largely in all the New England states, in some, with fairly accurate registration, as much as fifty per cent. in the half century; and this decrease appears to be going on now more rapidly than in earlier years. The death rate of women from con sumption has decreased more rapidly than that of men, and is now less than that of men, while in earlier years it was greater. The death rate from con sumption at every age of life has also decreased, but more at older than younger ages.

Its wealthy young men visit and reside in London. Paris and other European cities. where they frequently take to themselves European wives. Three cases have just occurred of Parsees thus marrying white women, one marrying a Jewess and one a French woman. There are great dissensions among the Parsees in India as to whether the non- Parsee wives should be received as proselytes.
