An exchange says that "alcohol will
remove stains from summer clothes" !"
The exchange is right. 1t will also
remove the summer clothes, also the
summers, also the spring, the autumn
and the winter clothes; not only from
the one who drinks it, but from the
wife and fsmiiy as well. It will also
remove the household furniture, the
estabies from the pantry. the smiles
from the face of his wife, the laugh
from the innocent lips of bis children,
the happiness out of his home. AS 4
remover of things, alcohol IS a dinger.

PACK GROWS
Alaskan S4lmOn Output /Bx-
 ceeds Expectation

The Alaskan salmon pack for the cur rent year exceeds the expectation Of three or four months ago. Concerning it, Secretary Metcalf, of the depart ment of commerce and labor, in his an- nusl report, says:
 Statistics of the Alaska salmon pack for the season of 1905 show that the business has been generally prosper ous. Considering the fact that the number of canneries in operation was ten less thar 1904, the product of 1905 was comparatively, though not actual ly, larger. On a close estimate (full re- ports not yet having been receiVed) the output was 1,9l7,25O cases, agair st 2 Ol2, BPS cases iu l9O4-a decrease of 95,- 67S cases. Had all the plants been op- erated this year, the seasons pack un- doubtedly would have exceeded that of 1904 by not less than l5O,0OO cases. The pack of the world Including salted sal man. will probably be about 4,592, ,25O cases, against 3,2S6, 259 in l9O4-a gain of l, ,OO5, ,99l cases"

Burbank and the Cactus.

From the Pilgrim.
Mr.. Burbank looks forward to a time In
the not distant future when the cactus will
become a commercial possibility. Enough
already Is known of the nature of the spine
less cactus to insure its enduring quality.
and that It may be produced as readily as
its forebears with the prickly spines. Mr..
Burbank estimates that 1t will cost from
ten to twenty-five dollars to put out an
acre of the spineless cactus. This will be
done by the use of cuttings. He advises
sandy soil, as rich alluvial lands cause too
rank growth
Mr.. Burbank has employed his expert
knowledge in many directions. and has pro-
vegetables. OF the latter the Burbank po-
tato is perhaps the most distinguished eX
ample and ii is said that the people of the
United States have been enriched by at
least twenty million dollars through that
single contribution. Others of his produc-
lions that have been particularly famous
are the phenomenal berry, the plum-cot,
the everbearng rhubarb and the Shasta
daisy. The new products which soon are
to be given to the world are chestnut
that bears within eighteen months after
planting the seed, and a tomato plant yield
ing it's fruit when eight weeks oid ana
six inches high. The number or fruits ana
flowers. either improved or actually orig
mated through breeding by MI burpahk
is approximately two thousand.
Mr.. Burbank will. for the first time, make
a comnIete exhibit of his strange plant prod
nets at the Lewis and Clark exposition
The exhibit will contain all or the more Ia
r,ore nroducts. and is sure TO be of unusual
interest.

Prof. Bigelow is taking with him on

that those atmospheric whirls that con

Peculiar Boston Dance.
ON the Boston Transcript

From the Boston Transcript.
A stranger dropping Of a morning from
the clouds or from an express balloon from
Mars to a group of persons waiting at a
railroad station for a train to take them
away from the land of the brown tail moth
would signal back to his home that north
of Boston dwell the most animated people
on the face OF the earth. He would say
that no matter how warm the morning, the
natives, old and young. large and small.
were going through a peculiar dance in
which the arms did perhaps most Of the
execution. While serious Russian topics
were being discussed by three or four men
they would on with the dance Just the
same Women. too, dressed In somber
fashion, while talking Of the latest sad
event In their neighborhood. would accom-
panS their comments with two-steps to the
right of them and two-steps to the left of
them But II the visitor would but stay
few minutes over train or two he would
send a later edition Of his story to the old
folks at home, saying he could do 1t; he
had caught the rhythm and the movement
of the dance, but that 1t wasn't such fun
as It looked: and that he would like to
postpone further Investigations of this sec
ton of the country till certain parasites, OF
which he heard much mention, could &C.
complish the work expected of them.

A flying weather observatory, capable of
ascending to mile or two above sea level
is now being towed through the fresh salt
air from the Chesapeake capes to Gibraltar,
Its leading string fast to the collier Caesar
United States navy.
The purpose of this unique cruise is to
map out the atmospheric strata above the
Atlantic. About forty days will be spent
in such research-twenty days each way
Frank II. Bigeow professor of meteor
ology, United States weather bureau was
given this odd mission by Prof Willis l..
Moore, chief of our national meteorologi-
cal institution. All of the governments
work in ocean meteorology was by the
way, lately transferred from the naval hy-
geographic office to the weather bureau
The aerial weather observatory flown from
the Caesar is very ingenious instrument
invented by Prof Charles F. Marvin of
Chief Moores staff. Although no bigger
than the ordinary hand camera and weigh
ing only two pounds-for 1t is made largely
of aluminum-this little contrivance regis
terS the temperature, pressure moisture
and wind velocity at whatever altitude It
may be placed and for twenty-four hours
at a stretch writes continuous record
of these four elements upon single sheet
of paper wound about revolving drum
When packed in little case 1t exposes
hollow cylinder at it's top, and this is set
against the wind. which acts against the
gauges inside. The "meteorograph," as the
compact observatory is scientifically known
is adapted for attachment to whatever fly
ing craft man may devise.
Three Curious Flyers.
Three aerial vehicles of very ingenious de-
sign are aboard the Caesar for this very
purpose. When unpacked on deck the Jack
les mistook them for steamer chairs. so
compactly and fiat were they folded. When
opened they were seen to be square box
frames built of straight grain spruce sticks,
bound with metal corners and braced with
steel wire ties. The largest measures ~

covered all the way around. one end with
