The removal Of the restrictions is now the thing
that the Indian Territory most urgently needs There
are but five members Of the senate committee and how
ever kindly disposed they may feel toward US they will
hardly be able to persuade the senate and house to their
and our way Of thinking without assistance from and
most vigorous assistance too.
The campaign for the removal Of the restrictions
should be commenced at and should be pushed with
the utmost possible energy until the end sought is Sc
cured With proper education, congress will give us
what we need Shall we not it that the education
is supplied?

Boradinn Houses and niseaee

In the opinion of Lancet there has
OF late years been a remarkable in
crease in the popularity of the board
ing house as a place of permanent
residence for the middle classes. This
custom has long been the rage in
America, and recently in England the
number of such houses has largely
increased. This fact has, doubtless,
helped to swell the cry about the de-
cay OF the home. The increase being
lndisputabe, more care than ever
should be taken to make these houses
healthy. They are by no means al
ways so. 1t has been pointed out
that these buildings contain many in
sanitary features. that often the light
ing and the ventilation are bad. and
that almost always the rooms are Tar
too small. The present day earnest
solicitude for the proper housing OF
the poor and working classes is one
OF the most promising aspects of mod
ern civilization. Indeed it is a neces-
sity for the we'll being of the race
that so far as is possible all should
live under healthy conditions. WD1le
however, it is q matter of national
concern that those who live by the
work OF their hands, and the poor
generally, should be enabled to pass
their lives in good sanitary DWELLINGS
the TACT must not be forgotten that
the health and the comfort of thp
dWellers in boarding houses and lodg-
ing houses are worthy of some CON
sideration. 1t goes without saving
that there are boarding houses and
lodging houses, and in criticising GER
tain defects characteristic of somo
OF these establishments there is M
intention to cast aspersions on all.
Drains and the plumbing are the
chief sources of danger to health
for it seems inevitable that most
boarding houses are of old and in
some respects obsolete, construction.
Often there is lack of conveniences
and they are badly situated, i'll CON
structed and unhygieniS from alt
points of view. Facilities for bathing
are in many boarding houses ana
lodging houses very inadequate. A
house containing. perhaps, fifteen peo-
pie will possess one bathroom, the
bath being constructed of unsuitable
material and hot water being difficult
to obtain.

Attention should be given now to
banking the celery crop The work
should never he done when dew or rain
is on the plants or when the soil is wet.
Celery can be nicely blanched by put
ting boards against the plants. but
billing up with earth IS usually a more
economical practice. Late celery which
Is TO be stored need not be hurried in
the banking process. 1t should be left
IN the field as long as possible. The
plants will stand fairly heavy frosts.
After two or three good frosts. how
ever, the plants should be taken up and
banked away in a cool cellar. In this
way they can be kept until after the
holidays ia perfectly good condition.

Edible Birds Nest.

Some authorities have contended
that the edible birds nests are con
structed of a glutinous matter Sc
creted in the mouths of the birds and
others think that these nests are
composed of a kind of seaweed. The
latter theory has now been practl-
cally abandoned and it is generally
conceded that the robbing of the
nests before the Matching of the
young is an act of great cruelty.
since the birds Immediately set to
work to build new ones and the ex-
cessive drain on their saliva exhausts
their strength to such a degree that
they are often found dead in num-
bers near the spot where they had

he would be utterly helpless, as he
