In order to find a substitute for pine in
the manufacture of packing boxes for diff
ferent purposes some extensive expert
ments nave been recently conducted by the
forestry department. About 40 boxes of
three different sizes were made up of
species of wood that are available for
making both large and small cases which
are not generally employed for the pur-
pose. Cottonwood seems to be the best in
all cases. The tests indicate also that the
majority of the nails at the end of the
side, top and bottom boards sh2uld be
driven into the end boards rather than the
batten.

Typhoid Germs.

TRENTON. Aug. 1.-THE Delaware
River Is the lowest at this point that it
has been for years, and residents of the
city are drinking muddy water. This and

fever district of the State Hospital for the
Insane runs into the river above the city's
intake pipe. has greatly increased the local
consumption of beer and other artificial
drinks.
II the dry weather continues and the
river runs still lower the city will be con-
fronted with a serious shortage Of water
for fire purposes.

Bamboo Pole Pals,

The Moros, who live in the matched
houses built along the shore Of a lake
or river, have a curious way Of con-
veying water from the lake or river
to their Filipino kitchens. They use
large bamboo sticks from which have
been removed all the partitions char
acteristic Of the bamboo, leaving only
one at the bottom. The bamboo trunk
Is thus made to serve the purpose Of a
bucket 1t is like long narrow pail
and holds several gallons of water, for
the bamboo trunk Is quite thick. The
Moro women are the water carriers,
as this is part of the household du-
ties which naturally fall to them. They
grind the rice and other grain in a
large followed out log, using a heavy
pole to crush the kernels.-New York

however. came a different state of af
fairs. Both the tenor and the bass
fell in love with her at sight. and the
contralto, being forty and fat and fair,
submitted comfortably to the new
singers conquest and smiled on her in
way unprecedented in choir history,
where the green eyed monster is sup
posed to rage rampant.
The new soprano was not irreverent,.
and hence 1t came about that romance
was succeeded by religion, and the
tenor and the bass paid strict atten-
ton to the responses and to the ser
mon and bent their heads during pray
ers, although so earnest were the So
prano's meditations that the bass was
constrained now and then to glance at
her and after intercepting the tenor's
ardent observation would again seem
wrapped in his devotions.
At the time of the opening prayer
! the sun came through the rose WIN
dow. A white dove spread his wings
against the stained glass background,
and as the soprano stood up for her
solo he seemed to hover over her head,
and her shining hair made golden
halo.
"Oh, she's too good to be true" the
bass told the tenor as they went home
! together one Sunday in May.
''She Is perfect" the tenor declared
fervently. I'VE are a lot Of sinners,
and she has come among us like lit

that the bass had given up smoking.

THEY HAD TEA AND MUFFINs.

/ In five weeks the tenor signed the
pledge. and In six the contralto stopped
bleaching her hair and came to choir
practice with her head tied up in a veil
to hide the inevitable discrepancies as
to color.
"She's a dear little thing" she con-
f1ded to the bass. ''She'S poor and takes
care Of her mother"
''I'll take care Of them both,' the
bass declared ardently, IF she will let
me-"
The tenor having made the same
statement, the contralto carried the
news to the soprano.
"They are both in love with you, my
DEAR" she whispered one Sunday morn
ing when the green curtain had been
drawn and the congregation had set
tied down comfortably to hear the SER
mon.
I'D rather not talk about such things
In church if you don't mind" the So
prano said gently, and the contralto
agreed hastily and gave her earnest at
tention to the preacher.
But tell me one thing" the tenor
said to the contralto confidentially at
choir practice, "how are we going to
ask her? Her mother walks home with
her after all the services, and she
hasn't asked us to call, and she won't
talk about secular things in church,
and there you arev'

tralto questioned sentimentally.
"She says it is" the tenor stated,
"but think it Is divine"
Things came to something of a eli
max when the. sopranos mother was
taken sick.
Now Is your chance" said the con-
tralto, all in flutter, as she leaned to-
ward the tenor.
But the bass was already begging the
