Milk In Your Tea.

1.-THE use Of plenty of milk with tea
says The Lancet (London), ''is a wise
and must be regarded as a
sound physiological proceeding, since
the proteids of milk destroy astrin-
gency and probably prevent the other
wise injurious action of tannin on the
mucous membrane of the stomach. In
the intestinal juice the proteids are
separated and the tannin probably COM
bines with the sodium salts. The i'm
moderate drinking of tea is an un-
questionable evil, but, on the whole,
we are inclined to think that the evils
of tea-drinking have been exaggerated.
The real difficulty is to convince people
that lightly drawn infusion gives
them their moneys worth"

UNEXPLODED PROJECTILES.
Danger Turks Therein-Chinese
lnQuiSjtiyeneSS Proves Fatal.

The dispatch coming from the Far
East of the killing of nearly a dozen
people by the explosion of a mine near
Chefoo. brings to light incidents going
TO show that the land in the vicinity
of Port Arthur is a fertile field of un-
exploded land mines and shells.
When the Russians were shelling
the japanese positions near the vii
lase of Suishiying many shells fell in
the localities desired by the gun
Ointers, but the ordnance was OF
failed to explode. A good lot of these
projectiles have lain where they fell,
objects of the careful investigation
and inspection of the wondering and
speculative villagers. On one occa-
sion n dispute arose as to the danger
in these innocent-looking pieces of
iron, and bold native. to prove his
contention that they were harmless,
as well as his bravery, struck one OF
the missiles with a big stone. This
was going a little too far, and unfor-
tunately he hit it on the nose, the ten
der spot of projectiles. 1t exploded
with terrible noise, killing ten of the
interested spectators.
Another Chinese discovered a shell
which had found a resting place in
the fresh water lake just behind the
Russian naval dockyard of Port Ar
thur. At that time the lake was one
mass of ice and the head of the shell
was just sticking up through the
frozen mass. John Chinaman was at.
tracted by the shining brass screw at
the top and went out on the ice to try
to get it off. Good metal was worth
having in the land of the Oriental
and this is what attracted him. He
used an old nail to remove the tempt.
ing object. His inquisitiveness was q
dear lesson for his family, although
the pieces were never found.
