HEALTH AND SPIRITS

is e common one and is given here in
order that others may be benefited by
her experience. She says: 81 had been

21,797 DIE OF SNAKE BITE.
Record of a Single Year in lndia-Wild
Beasts Kill 2,054.

CSdShS FNtIt GiSOTs
The number of persons killed in In
dia in 1906 by wild beasts was 1854, as
against 2,157 in the previous year, and
the number of deaths reported from
snake bite (21, 79O is also a little small
er than that of 1904.
A feature of the 1905 returns Is the
increase in the number of deaths, Doth
of human beings and cattle, attributed
to leOpards. 1t is suggested by q writer
in Baily's Magazine that these beasts
seek their prey more readily than they
used to do in the neighborhood of VIII
lagos. The fact that more licenses to
possess firearms were held in 1905 than
in the previous year may be noticed;
but ii has long been recognized that it
is impossible to discover any relation
between the number Of firearms in ma
tive hands and the number of deaths
from wild beasts.
During 1905 more dangerous wild
beasts were killed t'ian in 1904. The
official figures are: Tigers, 1855; leop-
ards, Ash; bears, 1926; wolves, 2,0l6:
hyenas, 554. Wei known man-eating
tigers were killed in several districts.
A regular crusade against wolves has
been carried on in parts Of the central
provinces where these brutes are most
numerous and most troublesome.
To the success of the campaign no
doubt may be attributed the great de-
crease in the number Of persons killed
by wolVes-in 1904, 244; in 1905, 153. Be
fore dismissing this subject it is worth
noting that the Bengal government in
September last offered a special reward
of RS. 200 for a ~man-eating tiger which
killed seven persons last year in Coil
kera forest, Singbhum district. The or
binary reward for a tiger is Rs. 40.

MOST MODERN SALT PLANT.
Ready for the Table Without Ever
Pairc Touched Nv Human Hands.

Ready for the Table without ever
BEING Touched BY Human Hands.
Thirteen hundred barrels every twenty
four hours of fine salt-m!ned, purified and
crystallized, packed ready for the table
without the touch of a hand-this IS the
last achievement in salt making, the ffna.
round in reduced cost Of production, says
the Technical World.
In the city Of Saginaw there has just
been completed and put in operation the
most modern salt plant in America. The
rock salt IS mined and brought to the sur
fact in the form of brine, through wells
nearly 500 feet deep. This brine is pumped
into a tank and filtered and run into set
Ting anks From there 1T is drawn off
into grainers, where the salt crystalizes.
These grainers are made of solid con-
crete and are much better than the old
wooden tanks. Steam exhaust pipes pass
through the gra.ners, which heat the brine
to such a temperature hat crystalliza-
ton begins.
THIS is a most interesting action. Watch
ing the steaming surface of the brine, a
p~ellicle of salt forms, which soon breaks
and sinks down, to be followed by anoth-
er, and the specialization then proceeds
rapidly. 1t is a fact that the estimated
capacity of each %grainer, OF 100 barrels ev-
cry twenty-four hours, is being greatly eX-
coded, and more than l3Q barrels are being
made.
mo such fast salt making was ever
known before said Salt Maker Mason.
ut beats all how the crystals form on the
bottom and sides of the grainer. / never
say anything like 1t, and have been maxi
ing salt-and good salt, too-for twenty
five years"

TO SAVE 500 LIVES A YEAR.
Railroads Elevate 1000 Miles Of Track
in Chicago.

The railroads of the country are
spending 500, 000, 600 to make the streets
of Chicago safe, says Rutldege Ruther-
ford in the Technical World. On an
average 500 people a year are run over
by passing trains or are injured in
collisions with steam locomotives while
using C~hicago's streets.
Ten years s. Chicago decided that
the elevation of all steam railway
tracks was the only means of protect
ing her citizens from the deadly grade
crossings. Now the railroads are foot
ing the bill.
Last year more than $4,000 men were
employed in the work of ~eleVating the
tracks. and it cost the railroads about
So, 800, 900. Chicago is not the only city
which is having her steam railway
tracks elevated. but Chicago is the only
city which is making the railroads pay
for the Job.
Chicago has already accomplished the
elevation of 500 miles of steam railway
tracks within her borders and has
made the railroads pay every ent OF
the $50, 000, 900 which it has cost.
Sixteen hundred miles of railroad
tracks in one city is something rather
difficult to comprehend without COM
PARSONS. sixteen hundred miles of
right of way is nearly enough to build
two elevated railroads from Chicago to
Philadelphia.
1t is more han enough to build a
single line from Chicago to Boston, or
TO Galveston, or to Santa Fe, n. M, or
to Jacksonville, Fla, or to Denver, or
even to Salt Lake City. This is en-
tirely Independent Of any lines operated
by electricity or by any power other
than steam.
Excepting the lowered and walled in
tracks of the Illinois Central along the
lake front, where there are no street
crossings, every mile of this trackags
will have been elevated when the work
nov in progress is completed.

Il Seemed LONGER.

George Bernard Shaw is a great
lover of music" said an actor. In
fact, before his plays became success
full he made his living as a musical
critic.
He was invited by a friend one
night to hear a string quartet from
Italy. Expecting a treat, he accepted
the invitation. And throughout the
program he sat with a stony look on
his face.
"The friend, to draw a little praise
from him, said:
"'Mr. Shaw, these men have been
playing together for twelve years.
""Twelve years!' said the other, in
an incredulous voice. Surely we've
been here longer than that"
