The Truth About Trapping.

Mr.. w. H. Wright. the noted
Worlds Work that the trapper of
to-day lacks every characteristic
which romance has interviewer with
his name. He says:
People who have not seen can
form no idea of the suffering trap
per's cause, nor of their ruthless de-
struction of game. Nothing escapes
them; even the squirrels are sacri-
feed to bait traps for marten and
fisher; and not only the squirrels
but all kinds of birds, whether game
or song-birds.
In trapping mink, otter, beaver
and few other fur-bearing animals,
the trap is nearly always set near
the water, where the animal when
caught is soon drowned, so that it's
sufferings is soon ended. But with
bear, marten and fisher it is differ
ent. The bear must drag heavy
clog about until it catches in some
root or bush. There he must wait
until the trapper comes to kill him,

days. The bones of the leg are al
most invariably broken by the trap,
and the leg swells to incredible size.
One trapper in one day shot nine
teen large blue grouse, merely to
try new rife. The birds were
nesting; he had no use for them, and
not one did he even bring to camp.
Three years ago In British Colum-
bia, an old trapper camped near our
bear-hunting party. He shot every
thing he could find, even little ducks
and marmots. A goat he killed fell
over cliff; and as 1t was harder to
recover 1t than to shoot another, he
shot another He was trapping
beaver out of season, and boasted of
having caught one that was about
to become a mother.

drag the trap and clog. / knew an

Speaking Through the Nose.

The offensiveness of the present
defect could not be exaggerated, per-
haps, but it is best to guard against
exaggeration in dealing with it. Not
long ago we talked with an observant
Englishman, who was hardly the
most willing of witnesses, but just
as we'll as a gentle spirit, and we
asked him If he had been much
struck by our far famed nasality
since coming amonug us. No, he
said, not half so much as he had
expected; but what he had noticed
was that we spoke drawlingly, drag
gingly, in tones that weakly and
tardily did their office. 1t seemed
to 'us, when we thought the matter
over, that there was a great deal
OF truth in what he said, and we now
commend his remark, together with
our own less lenient accusations, to
the attention of the American Wom-
ans Speech Reformers. What they
want to get at is the average Of
fence, and not to err as to its pre-
else nature. There is no doubt that
certain of our women twang, and
whine, and whifIle, and whinny, but
possibly close inquiry might develop
the fact that, after all, 1t may be a
lazy and careless mismanagement of
the voice in the sort suggested which
is most to be corrected. William
Dean Howells, in Harpers Bazaar.

The following rules for living to
a ripe, old age are given by Mrs.
Henderson In her recently published
volume, The Aristocracy of Health
(Harpers)
1. Study the laws of nature for
health and the remedies of nature
for cure.
2. Avoid all poisons.
3. Take abundant exercise in pure
air, but always short of fatigue. So
exercise that every portion of the
body is equally benefited AS it
takes strong engine for a long jour-
ney; cultivate lung-power by slow,
deep-breathing exercises.
4. Eat only the amount of food
that nature needs, and study what
to eat from scientific point of
view.
5. Cultivate normal sleep. Live
and sleep only in rooms that are well
summed, well ventilated, and not over
heated.
6. Cultivate the habit of work in
connection with some worthy ambi-
ton, for healthy exercise of body
and mind is as strengthening as re-
pose, and should balance it, Work
while you work and rest while you
rest, avoiding all worry. Make your
self useful to the world. and feel
that you have mission in it.
7. Avoid all environments, the
worst of which is the friend who en-
courages you to poison yourself.

Science and Manufacture.

In the Zeiss glass works at Jena
fourteen doctors of science are en-
ployed, and these include mathema-
ticians as we'll as physicists. The
great German aniline color works
employ more scientific" than tech
nichal" chemists. At one of them,
for instance, fifty-f1ve scientific and
thirty-one technical chemists are en-
gagged; at a second las scientific
chemists and 175 technologists; at
a third 14S scientific chemists for
seventy-five technicists. The re-
search laboratories of these works
are lavishly equipped; one of them
possesses a library of $4,000 vol
umes; second spends 10000
francs a year on glassware. These
things are no doubt expensive, but
these great factories still manage
to pay dividend of from twenty to
thirty per cent. Every newly dis
covered substance which is usable
is patented, and in this way Germany
has managed to establish a monopoly.

No thoughtful person who has
ever visited a maple-grove in the
early spring, while snow-banks are
yet lingering in sheltered hollows,
and has seen pailful after pailful of
sweet sap drawn from the auger.
holes in the shapely trunks, can have
failed to wonder what forces govern
the flow of the sap When the warm
sun touches the treetops the flow in
creases. A rise of a few degrees
in temperature often causes a great
increase of flow, If the rise passes the
zero point, on the Centigrade scale,
that is, the freezing-point of water.
But a considerable change of tenn
perature in which the fluctuations
do not cross the zero line causes no
marked change in the flow of the
sap. DR.. K. M. Wiegand, discussing
these and other related facts in the
American Naturalist, reaches the con-
clusion that neither expansion of
gas in the wood, nor expansion of
water, nor expansion of the wood
itself, is the underlying cause of the
pressure which produces the flow,
but that this pressure arises from
the effects of temperature in altering
the osmotic permeability OF the pith-
ray cells.

APPENDICITIS.
A New Theory Advanced Respecting
Its Cause.


Its Cause.
The question as to whether it Is
advisable to operate 80 frequently
for appendicitis continues to arouse
the interest of French physicians.
NJ. Blanchard, a shining light in
the French medical world, now
comes forward with a startling new
theory which entirely upsets all pre-
conceived notions. He asserts-and
says his assertion is backed by Pro-
fessor Metchnikoff, of the Pasteur In
stitute-that appendicitis is undoubt-
edly caused by intestinal worms.
These are of three kinds, and the
most dangerous is that known as the
trygocephal. which causes the sharp
pains and symptoms which indicate
appendicitis.
Microscopic examination In every
case OF appendicitis that has come
under the observation of Professor
Blanchard and Professor Metchni-
koff has revealed the presence of
these parasites in the appendix. "Ap-
pendicitls," says Professor Blanch-
ard, more especially occurs during
the hot weather, and, although not
contagious or infectious, 1t frequently
assumes the character of an epidem-
ic in certain districts"
Now, according to the professor,
market gardens in the neighborhood
of great cities, such as Paris and
London, are frequently manured and
fertilized by the deodorized and
chemically treated product of the
city sewers. In these market gar
dens the vegetables are forced, and
examination shows that they contain
numerous intestinal parasites, and
especially the eggs of the dreaded
trygocephal.
The professor says that surgical
operation for appendicitis is abso-
lutely unnecessary, and that it
should never be performed unless
some hard substance such as cher
ry stone has been accidentally swal.
lowed by the patient. He urges leg.
islation to forbid the use of deodor-
ized and chemically treated sewage
as manure, and that thymol should
be extensively used against intesti.
nal worms.
Appendicitis, adds Professor
Blanchard, when not the conse-
quence of the accidental swallowing
of some hard substance, is undoubt-
edly caused by the parasite to be
found in cabbage, turnips, carrots,
and caulifiower. The danger lies in
eating vegetables that have been
forced by manures or watered by
contaminated we'll and spring water. :"

APPLE TREES so YEARS OLD.
they Were Planted by Indians at n
Historic Spot in Michigan.

Planted by the Indians eighty
dian reservation and burying ground,
two apples trees still stand side by
side on the bank of the Shiawasse
River near Vernon.
The trees are now of mammoth
size, measuring six and eight feet In
circumference, and Notwithstanding
their age they are still In healthy
condition and bear fruit each year.
Near where they stand was To-
Gated the first settlement made by
white men in Shiawasse County
about one hundred years ago. In
those early days the spot was one
OF the chief trading points in the To-
cality.
1t was located on one of the first
trails hereabouts, and, being also on
the river bank, was accessible by
water. In those days water was
used for travel more than it Is now.
So large was the business done by
Indians and fur traders that in 1910
a bank was established here 1t was
one of the wildcat variety so COM
mon in those days, and issued a
great amount of wildcat currency.
Tradition has it that while the
bank was doing fourishing bust.
ness some of the large holders of its
currency became uneasy about the
security for the redemptio, of the
paper and planned raid to loot the
bank.
The bank officials, hearing Of the
plan, took the banks specie and
buried it near the river. There still
live in that vicinity some oldtimers
who believe that the money is bur-
led there yet, and many excavations
have been made in the hope of un-
covering 1t.
The trend of progress has been
away from this spot, and any one
visiting there to-day will find peace

actor sent for him, and was aston

on his back before operations were

A Swiss matchmaker has invented
a watch which speaks the time from

hard rubber plate has the vibrations
of the human voice imprinted upon
it, and is actuated by clockwork. SO
that at a given time the articulation
is made, indicating the hour. The
utterance is sufficiently strong to be
heard twenty feet away. 1t is pos
sible by means OF a. device of this
kind to combine sentiment with util-
ity, as the vibrations can be made by
by any clear voice, and mans watch

would try to interest him in some

about it. If he married Nell Coover

II might help you," reflected the
Ally again. But you must let me do
1t In my own way. For instance,

Gracious, no! Any one but Nell
Coover! l am willing and even anx-
| ious to see him married. Use your

well, then, you must help. The
first thing l want you to do is to
stop opposing Frank in the matter Of
seeing Nell. Encourage him in it IL
you can, without being too obvious.
There is such a thing as too much
sugar, you know" The Old Gentle
man saw her point and nodded de-
lightedly.
| "And 1t would help a lot IL for the
sake of the cause you could just bow
to Mrs. Coover when you meet on the
street"
The Old Gentleman reached for his
hat and cane and stood up very
straight. Madam, would far rath.
er see my poor boy married to that
| girl and then spend the rest of my
life getting even than speak to that
woman now. Good day, madam"
|
The Ally planned her campaign
with much care, telling neither one
of the Old People any more than she
needed to keep their spirits up. She
took every opportunity to talk with
Nell and Frank, and finally she made
out list of young people for a two
weeks house party. She asked both
young people for list of names, and
she saw the little flush that red
| dened Nell's tanned cheeks when
Frank insisted that she ask his friend
Phil Bradley. Frank insisted that he
didn't know girl he would want
around for two weeks other than the
ones who were there already, but
promised to be nice to those whom
the Ally would invite.
There was a fortnight of merry
making, and when it was all over, all
the guests departed but Phil Bradley,
who moved his traps over to Franks
and stayed on. From that day on
the quartet was as much in evidence
as the couple had been. Nell was OBJ
served to be very polite to Franks
guest, and the Ally, in the role of
comforter to Frank, was eminently
successful.
The Old Lady beamed upon Philip
and the warmth of her smiles pene-
trated even to the depths of outer
darkness, where Frank was suppos-
| edly gnashing his teeth. She did not
take the trouble to stiffen so very
much now when she met the Old
Gentleman, and she even allowed
herself the luxury of supercilious
smile, for she had no other idea than
that the dearest wish of the Old
Gentleman's heart was to marry his
son to her daughter.
And as for the Old Gentleman, he
was seen to cut an insultingly wide
swath around the Old Lady's floating
silk draperies, and was heard to hum
as he twirled his cane;
