 Two days later the prodigal came
 back. Another and larger boat filled the BayOnne's place. Repentant and dismayed, she visited every steamer in the docks. Then convinced that her indiscretions had made her both homeless and kittenless, she took up
 her quarters in a watch box and pa tiently awaited Capt. Hugo's return.
 Week followed week, scores of barks arrived, and were each in turn anx- iously inspected: and. still undis- couraged by repeated disappoint- ments, she bravely kept her post.

GERMAN SCHOOLS FOR FARM
 HOUSE GIRLS.


 The question of establishing travel ing schools for farmers daughters which shall teach the principles of scientific housekeeping, cooking and farm work. is being agitated in Alsace-Lorraine. Such schools are already in operation fin Baden, Bavaria, Thuringen, and Hesse, and are giving great satisfaction. The teachers are all educated women, graduates of the best schools of house. work, who must have passed govern ment examinations. All expenses incl dent to conducting the schools are paid by the government, but these are com paratively light. An outfit for school consists of a cooking stove, serving utensils, ironing boards, irons, table cloths, towels and cooking utensils. Tables and chairs are borrowed in the various villages, and the classes are held in the school houses. Only twenty girls are allowed in class, a term lasts six weeks. and no pupils are admitted who are Under 16 years Of age. There are practical lessons in housekeeping, cooking, and the selection of food; then lectures on the analysis of food, the scientific care of cattle and poultry the cultivation of vegetables. and the mak- ing of butter and cheese. It is proposed to enlarge the curriculum to include a minor course in nursing. cooking for the sick, sewing, mending. etc.
 The tuition will be so low as to prac- tically exclude no one, The schools are especially intended to benefit remote farming communities not easily accessible to permanent schools of such nature.-consul Joseph J. Britain Kehl. ''-

Some extraordinary bets have been made on the Japanese Russian war. A number of Japanese officers have bet that they would be killed in battle The money was to go to their widows. One officer on starting for the front made the following wager: If he were killed within month his heirs were to re- ceive $500. After that he was to pay his opponent 10 yen ($0 a day until he had survived 100 days, after which the bet was to cease. He undertook to expose himself to danger only when military conditions demanded 1t; in other words, he would not wilfully let himself be killed.

In order to practice medicine or den- tistry in the Transvaal you must get a < 'certificate of registration" and to get this you must satisfy the council that you have all the qualifications required for practice in the United Kingdom. Consul Proffitt writes from Pretoria: American college and university grad uates, possessing only American quail fications, must regard the present law impossible for them to surmount. Sev- era1 qualified American medical and dental men recently made the mistake of coming to the Transvaal intending to establish themselves here in the practice of their professions, only to find out that the law was prohibitive.'
 How is the balance of life on the globe maintained? asks John Bur- roughs in Outing. Why have not species exterminated species? Why have not the birds externinated the insects, and the hawks and owls exterminated the birds? Because the insects are so much more prolific than the birds, and the birds so much more prolific than the hawks and owls. The hawks and owls are also more restricted as to food. The more adaptive an animal is the greater are the chances of surviving. If wolves and foxes could browse like deer and sheep and rabbits they would be as numerous as these latter species. The potato bug has unduly increased in the east because it's food is abund- ant and it's enemies have not appeared. The forest worms threatened to destroy the maple woods of some sections, tiff its enemy, the ichnuman fly, appeared. Rabbits have increased unduly in Aus tralia because their natural enemies have not kept pace.

The Yellowstone Valley, near Bill.
ings is just now coming into special
prominence on account of its different
irrigation canals. The Billings canal,
east of that town, waters an extremely
fertile district, in which alfalfa is q
very prolific crop. East of Huntley,
on the Crow Indian reservation, which
will probably be opened In 1906, vari-
Gus canals are planned by the United
States government, which will water
large tract of this very fertile coun-

erection OF large beet sugar factory
at Billings, which will add to the proc
