Easy Housekeeping.

Native housewives in the West In.
dian jungle find housekeeping very
easy. Fruit and vegetables grow wild
all about the hut, and the river
abounds with fish. On washday all
she has to do is to pick a few of the
berries of the soap berry tree. take her
clothes to the river and use the berries
as she would use ordinary soap. Even
her cooking pots grow on the trees, the
calabash cut in halves being used for
this purpose. Calabashes are also used
for bowls, basins and jugs for carry.
ing water from the river, while the
small ones make excellent cups. In
the afternoon when she is ready for
her cup Of tea she picks half a dozen
leaves from the lime bush growing al
her door, boils them, squeezes the juice
from a sugar cane for s~weetening, and
the %cocoanut supplies the milk. Thus
she has a delicious cup of tea without
depending Oh the grocer for it.

were SO few that there was lttle fear
Of their meeting with contradiction,
He says: 1.-The people cut the green

burning they burst a%sunder, and this
makes such a loud report that you
might hear it ten miles off. In fact.
any one unused to this noise who
should hear it unexpectedly might
easily go into a swoon OF die Of fright.
But those who are used to it care moth
ing about it; hence those who are not
used to it stuff their ears we'll with
cutton and wrap up their heads and
faces with all the clothes they can
muster, and SO they get along until
they have become used to the sound.

say that the first time you hear it moth

Coughing Saves Your Life.

A cough is the response to a danger
signal which says that something is ir-
ritating the delicate mucous membrane
which lines the air passages leading to
the lungs. This cause Of irritation may
vary, but in the common cough Of win
ter it is some offending matter, which
nature seeks to clear off and expel by
means of the compelling cough lest it
should block the bronchial tubes and
cause suffocation. The sensitive nerves
that belong to these vital tubes act as
sentinels and send a message for sue
cor to the brain, which at once responds
to the call by dispatching orders to the
chest muscles. These then contract
violently with one accord and force out
the air In a cough, which carries with
1t the cause Of irritation.

Colonel L. B. Pease, who was for q
long period editor and publisher Of the
Woonsocket Reporter, was responsible
for many quaint sayings and delicious
bOnmOts. Upon one occasion he at
tended Il crowded reception in Harris
hall and, staying quite late, was sur
prised to find his hat had been taken
and a very poor substitute left in it's
stead. The following night he called
the attention of his readers to the fact
in the following anner 1.-THE gentle
man who inadvertently took our new
silk tile and left a very inferior article
In it's place will do us infinite kindness
by returning ours. He will receive u
warmest thanks and two apologies-an
apology for the trouble we have given
him and the apology for a hat he has

The Green Of the Sea.

"a NAAS SS~s
The green color of ocean water de-
ponds upon the number Of medusae
and other minute animal forms which
inhabit it. The deep green northern
seas literally swarm with these NINA
ture creatures. In some places as many
as 1913 Of them have been found in a
single cubic inch of water. In this
proportion a cubic foot of water would
contain 221, 1874; a cubic fathom, A.
776,7A, and a cubic mile 48, 6,OOO,-
100000. From soundings made in the
districts where these creatures are
found in such immense numbers, it is
probable that the waters will average
a mile in depth. Whether these forms
occupy the whole depth Is uncertain.
Provided, however, the depth to
which they extend Is but $50 fathoms,
the above immense number Of spe-
cies may occur within a space of one
square mile.

The Fox and the Rock.

A writer in Land and Water, an Eng

consider the fox an enemy Of the rock
and yet he Is an inveterate foe when
ever he gets a chance. 1t is doubtful If
he would stick a tooth into a tough old
rock if opportunity permitted it, but q
young rock is a delicacy reynard
much appreciates and which he often
enjoys. II a ro0kery and a litter of
cubs exist in the vicinity of each other,
the vixen belonging to the latter
spends most Of her time during q
rough night beneath the trees and
busily carries the blown out nestlings

Those timekeepers the Pleiades have
been used to mark the days from the
most remote periods. T. w. Fewkes,
describing the fire ceremonies of the
Pueblo Indians Of Tusayan, said that,
having been present on two such occa-
sions in 1892 and 1893, he found that
the error Of time made by the Indians
as to the 18th Of November in those
two years was Insignificant. It was
the elimination of the Pleiades which
told the Indians the proper time for
the beginning OF their rites.
