THE MOSQUITO IN LABRADOR.
Terrible Pest to Travellers and Ma.
tives in the Northland.

No account of travel in Labrador
can be complete without some men.
ton of the terrible pest of mosquitoes.
These were always present in i'm.
mense swarms from the beginning Of
u trip to the end, and sometimes
they made life almost unbearable.
Nothing could be heard but their buzz
zing. Whenever we attempted to eat
they were down our threats and in
our eyes and faces and in spite of our
head nets and fly dope we were always
badly bitten. The natives seemed to
mind them almost as much as We did,
their remedy being rancid seal oil. I
am satisfied that were one so unfortu.
nate as to be caught out at night
without protection, he would be either
crazy or dead by morning.
Our tents were provided with q fine
mesh bobbinet inner tent, but some
would always find their way inside
or come up from the ground. At times
our light so attracted them we went
outside to see if it were not raining,
for the constant tapping of the mosqui-
toes against the canvas sounded so
exactly like rain that 1t was impossible
to tell the difference.
On many nights I had to give up
the observation of stars for latitude
and longitude because a candle could
not be kept lit long enough to adjust
the artificial horizon. We unfortunate
" had no chimney and the mosquitoes
swarmed so thickly that without this
protection the flame was quickly
smothered. There were but few
nights cool enough to afford us any re-
lief; we found that it required a tenn
perature within a few degrees of actu-
al freezing to subdue them.-Forest

Model Public Servant,

Mrs. Nancy c. Bush, postmaster at
Charlotte, VT, has just celebrated her
seventy-eighth birthday. She has been
in the postal service for 38 years,
beginning as a telegraph operator and
assistant postmaster. In response to
a petition signed by almost every in.
habitant of Charlotte, President Grant
appointed her postmaster in 1876. Her
office is said to be a model of neat.
ness and her accounts always accurate
to the last cent. She has eve had
a clerk and she superintends one sub
station and two carriers, besides at.
tending to an extensive money order
business and the regular duties OF
postmaster.

Decoration WorthiIy Bestowed.

President Fallieres' first list of deco.
rations for the New Year included the
name of one man who is little known.
This was a young physician named
Louis Bozy, who lost an eye in the
discharge of his duty. DR.. Bozy,
while acting as assistant to an operat-
ing surgeon in one of the Paris hos.
pitfalls, had an eye injured through a
drop of poisonous matter coming in
contact with It.. He knew that an
antidote must be applied Immediately,
but by doing this he would have left
the chief surgeon unattended, and re-
manned at his post with his eye un-
cared for until the operation vas
completed. In consequence of his
heroism he lost an eye and was con
fined to a hospital for a long time.
President Fallieres, in comforting the
decoration, said that a wound re-
ceived by a physician in the discharge
of his duty was as honorable as one
received on the battlefield.

NET they were made where every mod

That is one evidence of the care
that is put on them.
The cloth is London shrunk. This "cold

better shrinkage. To insure accurate sizes.
each garment is cut separately by shears
instead of by machines which cut many at

GOOD
NEWS

Hon. P. G. Jones has informed The
Star that wireless from Pahala gives
the good news that one and a quarter
az inches of rain has fallen there,
and that there is snow on the noun
tains.
Mr.. Jones thinks it probable that
Kona as we'll as Kau district has shar-
ed in the precipitation. If so it means
a blessed break in the drought of
eighteen months which has been uis-
astrous to ranchmen and farmers.
