PETER FENELON COLLIER.

A brave soldier on the battlefield Of
life was wounded to the death when
Peter Fenelon Collier died in New
York
OF the self made captains of indus
try Collier was one Of the best made.
Born in a humble home, he early
made friends of good books. Loving
these books, he came to find his earli-
est employment as a canvasser.
And here he got his lifes inspiration.
Mr.. Collier sold Bibles. The good
book was then an expensive volume.
One day, having tramped in vain, he
finally came upon a scrubwoman, who
said to him:
mo. me boy. have not that much
money. l will give you a dollar now
and 30 cents livery week till it is paid"
Young Collier had no authority to
make that sort Of sale, but he went
home and slept over the Irishwoman's
suggestion. The next morning he ex-
planned to his employer his idea. His
eloquence prevailed. and he was per-
mitted to make time sales.
The next day he sold fifty Bibles.
The idea was the origin Of his pub
I fishing business, the selling of books
on installments.
Successful in his business. Collier
rendered a service TO the people.
He cheapened the price not only Of
Bibles, but of all books. He knew the
dynamic power resident in a good book
in a humble home, and it was his
ambition to put standard literature
into the homes of the common people.
1t should be put down to the credit
Of Mr.. Collier that his publishing i'm
print never appeared on a trashy
book. Standard history. real poetry,
high fiction-this sort of books he Is
sued from his presses and sold by the
million.
1t is a great thing to be able to
choose the reading Of the masses of
the people.
One who knew Collier intimately
says it was one Of the sorrows Of the
mans life that the price Of books
should be advanced because Of the in
creased cost of production.
He made money. but it is Of record
that he made it honestly. serving his
generation.
It is a pleasure to subjoin to what i:
here written that when he was rich hs
bought home for the Irish widow
who gave him his suggestion and sup

Paper Whieh Is Watsrproof.

In Japan there is a paper made which
is impervious TO water. being made Of
bamboo fibers and eucalyptus mixed
with the fbers Of the gampi and some
other shrubs. The fibers are first torn
apart. made dry. cleaned and scraped,
boiled in a weak lye and thoroughly
washed in water, after which they are
beaten and then mixed with certain
roots made into a viscous state. A
solution containing resin. caoutchouc
and camphor is also added. A sort OF
pulp is thus formed and then made
into sheets. which are run through a
calendering machine heated to various
temperatures. The result is that a
paper is produced which is exceedingly
tough. light and which may be washed

Northern Australia.

Australia's huge northern territory
has a tropical. almost an equatorial,
climate, and the heat is very enervat-
ing to Europeans. Its capital. Pal
merston. contains more Chinese than
Caucasians. The former are the rul-
ing race and the employers; the whites
are the servile and the employed.
Large herds Of buffaloes roam about
the silent plains OF this enormous ter
ritory. which would be a sportsman's
paradise but for the Wild natives. who
are exceptionally fierce and treacher-
GUS and have killed number of tho
hunters who came to hunt the buis-
