Motor Cars in Calcutta

In more recent report by the Belgian
consul at Calcutta it is stated that there
is steady demand for motor carsin that
city, and it is added that ii is probable
large business Will be done in these
ears in the near future. The essen.
tial qualities for the Indian market are
cheapness and quiet running. AS the
country is extremely dusty. chainless
cars are preferred. TIL motive power
should be petroleum. which is easily

Remedy for Mosquitoes.

Nav that the festive motquito is
90 prominently before the public the
following method Of destroying the
dangerous pest and possibly assist in
meserving the public health is time.
". The Public Health journal Of
New York, says;
"Permanganate Of Potassium is a
cheap and simple preparation that
will destroy mosquitoes in any stage
Of their development. A single
handful of it will oxidize q 10. acre
swamp, kill all the emoryo insects
and keep it free from organic matter
for thirty days at a cost OF not over
30 cents. A single pinch Of it has
killed all the germs in a 1000.gallon
tank. One pint Of permaDganate Of
potassium in 175 gallons of water
distributed through mcsquito mar
shes and swamps would render il
impossible for the larvae to develop.
"No harm will follow the use of
this simple preventive, but much
good. 1t is one OF the best aDtisep-
tlcS and would no doubt render
many places free from malaria that
are now prolific sources of disease,
for il is fixed rule that wherever
mosquitoes are plentiful malaria is
in the surface water, and where there
are no mosquitoes there is no ma
laria.
"As a cheap, practical disinfect-
ant for garbage barrels, cesSpools
outhouses, barnyards and other foul
Enclosures or unhealthy places, this
simple chemical material is most ef-
Nrtive."

When Hats Were Unknown.

In ancient days hats were unknown,
men having hoods attached to their
outer garments, which they wore or
discarded at pleasure, Stow, the old
historian, says that nobody wore any
thing else except the lord mayor Of
London, who sometimes donned a hat
on state occasions. In the reign Of
King Henry VII, he says, the citizens
began to wear "fat caps knit Of wool
en- yarn, black, but so light that they
were obliged to tie them under their
chins, for else the wind would be mas

When she boarded the train for home

hands were badly swollen and she was
driven at once to the cffice Of DR.

The fingers Of the hands were swol-

owing to the confined space in which,

The firemen at the East street en-.
CINE house have black cat which is
remarkable for several things. 1t
possesses six toes on each foot, and
during the past year it has had about
two score and ten kittens which have
all had the same number Of digits.
The cat also has become a follower
Of the hunting game in more ways
than the average feline has aspired to.
It has An excellent record for hunting
rats and mice that can be found about
the premises, but it is also hunter
after the fashion Of dogs. One of the
aremen takes trips into the neighbor-
ing places for hunting birds, and
wherever he goes the cat is sure to be
with him. Whenever he brings down
any game the cat is there to claim the
quarry.
1t is said that the animal will follow
the person in question for miles In
order to get the game, and it cannot
be deceived, for as soon as one of the
fremen in the house starts out with
a gun the cat is always faithful fol-

was taken with some success, and the
cat seemed as pleased at the results
as was the hunter.-Spring6eld
