MILK BOTTLES OF PAPER.

The many disadvantages of the glass
milk bottle, as Row almost universally
employed, are we'll known One OF the
most serious is the difficulty in securing
proper cleansing before it is retilled
with the accompanying possibility Of
spreading infection. Efforts to secure
improvement in this detail of milk serv-
ice nave heretofore been unsuccessful,
mainly because of failure to obtain a
satisfactory substitute

A Dear Little Bow.

Archbishop Ryan, at q dinner that
was given III his honor in Philadelphia,
said, anent man who had bought a
salted mine:
THE gentle-nan's disappointment on
discovery Of the salt must have been
great. 1t resembled a little, perhaps,
the emotion OF q certain Frankfort man.
This man had small nephew of
whom he was very fond. One night. in
evening dress, he called at the young
ster's house, and, taking him on his
knee. gave a demonstration of an opera
hats mechanism. First he would crush
his tall, black hat into pancake. Then
with loud report, he would spring it
back into its proper shape again.
The little fellow was amused. He
took the hat. He, too. found that he
could crush it ard open it again with

Whites Among Maoris.

Prof. ]. Macmillan Brown of Christ
Church, New Zealand, recently paid a
visit to the Maoris who live in the fast
nesses of the great King country and
Urewera country, in the heart of the
north island of New Zealand. He went
specially to visit the "Uru-K ehn," or
red-headed Maoris, who are often seen
III those districts. He had previously
come to the conclusion that the Maoris'
ancestors, in their migrations, crossed
with white race, and he informed a
representative of the Lyttelton Times
that his visit had strengthened his opin-
ion. He states in one assembly at
which he was present at least % per
cent. OF the children had brown. or even
tiaxen, hair, a complexion which re-
sembled that of the Italians and fine
European features.

The Patriot.

A resident of Ava. n. Y, was talking
about the late Hiram Cronk, the last
survivor Of the war of 1912.
AT the age of 1907 said the Ava

mind. Above ali things he was patriot
He believed firmly in the supremacy of
our republic.
An English traveller, out of curiosity,
came to Ava to see Mr. Cronk one day.
The old patriot praised America extrava-
santly and condemned England as an
outworn and dying nation

long as he could. Then he said, hotly:

Then there followed af er a

of accidents.
A most interesting volume
might be compiled entitled
"The Romance nf the White

hardly less than European SOW

little else; Taylor, Grant and
Roosevelt, accidents or war;
Clevelandand Arthur, very much
like miracles. and Lincoln every

Even the negro messenger,

when Quay refused the widow

which was formerly an arm Of the sea,

any damage was done the river return.
ed to its channel, and the Salton sea,
as it was called, soon dried up. When
the Imperial canal was built, which
took the water from the Colorado
river into the Imperial valley, which
is a portion Of the same depression as
the Salton valley, a large canal was
built TO carry the water to the lands
that we're to be irrigated. Much more
water was taken from the river than
could be used by the irrigatOrs, and
the surplus vas allowed to go to waste
down the valley. Head gates that
could control the water never we're
built. The valley around Salton has
been threatened. The Imperial COM
pany has had troubles OF its own, and
has not been able to build the neces-
sary gates. Some weeks ago 1t was an
nounced that the Southern Pacific had
loaned the Imperial company several
hundreds Of thousands Of dollars, with
the proviso that Epes Randolph
should be elected president Of the
company. 1t was generally under
stood that Mr.. Randolph would put 10
head gates that would control the
water, so there would be no waste wat
er flowing down the valley, to injure
the Southern Pacific track. Mr.. Ran.
dolph has not yet got the water under
control, and a portion OF the track has
to be abandoned. Tuesday came ord
ers to gather up all the ties and rails,
make up a special train here, and
send it TO Salton, where a "shoo fly"
will be built around the washed out
place. The seriousness Of the cbndi-
ton can be imagined when it was
found necessary to send as far as here
for ties and rails, and probably as far
to the west.
