Bank of England Notes.

One rarely sees dirty Bank OF
England note. That is because the
bank never reissues banknote.
Even if any one went into the bank
and demanded five pound note in
exchange for five sovereigns and
then crossed to another counter and
changed the same note back into
gold that note would be destroyed.
The system is expensive, but by, its
means the bank avoids many of the
risks of forgery. The affairs of the
Bank of England are conducted by
a governor and deputy governor
elected from twenty-four directors
who are chosen from the leading
merchant and private banking firms
in the city and generally serve for
life. There are two branches in
London and nine in the country.

An October Snow Storm.
(From a Dummerston scrap-bool,)

October 9th, 1904, about the
middle of the forenoon, it COM
menced showing. We had had no
frost, the leaves were green on the
trees, the wind was at rest, and the
snow came like n sugar snow, in
large flakes, wet and heavy. The
trees were soon loaded, and the old
trees in the forest that had faced the
elements tor centuries began to
trembIe. In the afternoon we hes rd

Young trees bent their heads to the
earth and there stayed, many of them
until the next summer, and some OF
them never regained their upright
positions. To many this was dark
day. Snow about two feet deep, corn,
potato, apples, large part of them
under the snow, and to all appear
ances long cold winter was closing
in upon us. The General Assembly
of Vermont held its session at Rut-
land that fall and the representatives
passing through Woodstock and
Sherburne over the mountain to that
place, horseback, as was the custom
to travel in those days, hada serious
time in getting through. We had

Some Vital Statistics of Yer
mont.

Some interesting facts concerning
conditions in Vermont were men,
toned by Frederick L. Hoffman,, a
statistician employed by the Pruden-
tial Life Insurance company, in a
talk to the recent annual school OF
instruction for health officers.
Mr.. Hoffmann's figures show that
the largest proportion Of deaths in
Vermont is caused by nervous dis
eases, while in New York city a
smaller proportion OF the population
dies OF nervous diseases than in Ver-
mont and the chief cause of death
in the metropolis is respiratory dis
orlers.
During the decade ending with
1909 nervous diseases accounted for
1873 per cent. of the total mortality,
while the principal cause of death in
the city Of New York for the same
period of time was respiratory dis
eases, accounting tor I7.6 per cent of
the deaths from all causes.
The second most important cause
in the state of Vermont was respira-
tory diseases, accounting tor 1872
per cent. These three groups of
causes, therefore, that is, nervous
respiratory and circulatory diseases,
account for 1916 per cent OF the
deaths from all causes in the state of
Vermont.
In the city Of New York the Sec
ond most important cause was tuber-
cuhar diseases and the third digestive
diseases, the three groups of causes
accounting for 1873 per cent of the
deaths from all causes.
For tuberculosis the death rate
per Ioo,oo population, r9o5-l9oo,
was highest in the county of Wash
ington, where it reached III, and
lowest in Essex county, o2.I. In
Windsor county the death rate was
ia. The average for the state was
I3o.
The typhoid fever death rate was
highest in Caledonia county, where
it attained to 3S.S per 100000, and
it was lowest in Lamoille county,
where it was only 7.9. The average
rate for the state was I7.s. Windsor
county stands next to Lamoille with
death rate of s.

TUBERCULOSIS GERMS.
The Armor That Repeis Them 10 Wo-
ven OF Fresh Air.

Tho Armor That Repeis Them 10 Wo-
ven OF Fresh Air.
Although there are many things
shat we do not know about con-
sumption, or tuberculosis, there are
some that we do and few that we
are in the act of learning.
We do not know, for example,
what makes for susceptibility and
what for immunity. Strong and
robust persons are sometimes
stricken down with it; invalids and
convalescents from other diseases
are no more susceptible to it than
are other people, and it is possible
to live for an entire lifetime in the
condition known as rundown" or
"weak" without becoming tubercu-
lous.
People still speak of consumption
as "inherited," but it is not inher-
tied. A child may be born with a
certain tendency to it, but if proper
measures are taken early enough
and kept up steadily and long
enough this tendency can be over
come. A child whose parents be-
fore him and their parents before
them, perhaps for generations back,
have been poor breathers will prob
ably inherit a small, meager chest
and will therefore be the natural
victim of the consumption germ as
soon as it reaches him. That child
will have to be taught to breathe.
The tendency to pigeon breast can
be overcome and a narrow chest de-
veloped to normal capacity, but to
do this the child must be kept con-
stantly in good air and taught how
to develop sand use the lungs. A
pigeon breasted child who is being
brought up on the coddling process
-oversheltered, overfed and over
clothed--is in as much danger as
if he lived under the famous sword
hanging from hair.
Another long lived fallacy, which
is a great pet with many people, is
that other diseases "run into" con-
sumption. A man comes down with
an attack of typhoid fever or pneu-
monia. After the attack is over his
convalescence is slow and doubtful.
Finally unmistakable signs of tuber-
culosis appear, and he says, 'I had
pneumonia, and it ran into con-
sumption" But if he had been ex-
amined before the. pneumonia
started he would have been found
to be already consumptive. In fact,
it would really be more sensible to
say that his consumption 'fran into
pneumonia"
IT must be remembered that con-
sumption may be present long
time before the germs begin to
appear in the expectoration. In
spite of hygienic precautions, we
must all come in contact with the
germs of consumption many times
in lifetime. These germs we shall
either breathe in or swallow. We
cannot escape them But there is
an armor that is germ proof 1t is
an invisible armor, woven of oxy-
gen-fresh air.--Youth's Compan-
ion.

what color reflects the. most and

following results: Dark blue reflects

cent; pale red, little more than

Lifa,o Of the sea.

Vegetation is everywhere present
in the sea in such abundance that,
although it consists of microscopic
plants, it may be thought Of as ex-
ceeding in quantity the vegetation
of the land. The oceans are vast
meadows, and. even those parts
farthest from land have an abun-
dance of animal life, whose exist
ence depends upon sea vegetation.
Sea life cannot exist without oxy-
gen, and the presence of such life
at considerable depths is due to
vertical circulation of the water,
carrying oxygen down. Where such
vertical circulation does not exist,
as in the Black sea, no life is found
at great depths.
