AT the end Of two weeks Of travelling we

Bohemian workmen's Dwellings.

Consul U. J. Ledoux, writing from Prague
in regard to a movement for better work
mems dwellings in Bohemia says,
The Bohmische Sparkasse, the oldest,
largest and wealthiest saving institution
occasion of the coming sixtieth jubilee of
$4,000 for the endowment of cheap cot
tages for workmen. Advantage will be
taken of a bill which passed the Austrian
parliament on July 90 1902, granting twen-
ty-four years exemption to such cottages
or dwellings as are erected on open build
ing ground or on an area of houses de-
molished to the ground, providing these
specific purpose of procuring cheap and
healthy residences for laborers and en-
ployes Of all kinds. and provided further
that such dwellings come up to the sani-
taryrequirements specified in the bill.
On April IL, 1906, the diet of Bohemia
also passed a bill granting to such dwell
ings a remission of the provincial and local
taxes for the same term of years as fixed
for the exemption for imperial government
taxation. A local paper says that though
the imperial governments bill has been in
operation since 1902, nothing, or compara-
lively little, has been done for improvinQ
the dwellings of the laboring Classes, thus
furnishing q proof that in dealing with
humanitarian problems simple legislation
remains Intellectual without private CO.

stamp of true American style, "endow-

fidently believed that others may be in

246 What was incense?
Answer. The word means set on fire. A
mixture of gums, spices, etc. eek xxx :34-3S)
constituted the official incense which was
burned morning and evening on the altar
Of incense.
247. What was the corn of the Scripture:
anything like our corn?
Answer. Indian corn, or maise. raised in
vast quantities in this country, Is native
of America, wholly unknown before the dis
covery by Columbus, highly priced by the
aborigines as an article Of diet. The word
corn in the Bible was applied to all kinds
Of grain then cultivated in eastern coun-
tries, of which our wheat and barley are
good samples.
24S Is It true that the word Satan, denot-
ing an evil spirit, came into Jewish speech
and literature from Babylon, having been
obtained during the captivity?
Answer. 1t Is true that persons have SO
asserted But the position is not tenable
IL the book Of Job was written as con-
sentative scholars hold by Moses Dob 1879

Culture of Beans.

The culture of the bean, while of the
easiest. often proves failure as far as the
first crop is concerned because of planting
the seed before the ground has become
warm and dry. No vegetable seed will de-
cay quicker than beans. and the delay
caused in waiting for the soil to become
warm ana Tree from excessive moisture
Will De more than made up by the rapidity
OF growth when they are finally planted.
Beans Will grow in almost any SOIL but
the pest results can be obtained by having
the soil well enriched and in good physicaI
condition. From May to 10 in the latitude
OF central New York it will be safe to plant
Deans for an early crop. The beans NAV be

A large number of varieties of both the
green podded and the wax beans are used
almost exclusively to be eaten with the
pod while tender. The various strains OF
the black wax are the most profitahie sfrfno

The Two-Cent Letter Rate.
From the Boston GTobs

The agitation for a universal two-cent
letter rate continues In postal circles and
should last until such a rate between the
United States and all foreign countries is
established Our foreign postal service pre-
sents the following contrasts:
New Zealand to the United States, two
cents per one-half ounce.
United States to New Zealand, all Europe
Martinique, Barbados the Bahamas, Trim
dad, Jamaica, st. Thomas, Newfoundland.
all South America, Japan, five cents per
one-half ounce.
United States to Mexico. Canada, Philip
pine Islands. Cuba, Porto Rico Sandwich
Islands. Shanghai, China, two cents per
ounce.
Under the circumstances. Postal Progress
Is justified In asking these questions: How
much more. are the voters Of the United
States interested In Shanghai, Hawaii or
Manila than In London, Paris. Berlin? How
much more does It cost to send mail mat
tel to Europe than to China, to st. Thomas

Victoria a Gretna Green.
From the Ottawa Citizen.

1t is probably not generally known that
Canada for some time has had a Gretna
Green In the city Of Victoria. For a long
time past young couples from the United
States have been flying over to that CITY
the knot tied at home.
The city IL now in danger, however. of
losing both Its reputation and custom. for
the ministers themselves who up to now
have reaped more or less of a harvest nv
celebrating this sort of marriages, are be.
ginning to realize that the thing is being
overdone through people who are utiiizins
the law Of British Columbia to get married.
when on the other side of the boundary line
they would not be permitted to do So
The result Is great deal of unpleasant
ness for the clergymen and great deal OF
notorfety for Victoria, with a great many
private detectives continually running down
clues about marriages which are Illegal in
the United States.
The ministers have petitioned the proyin
cial government to make the law stricter
IN that respect
