CURE THAT CATARRH

Our climate with it's sudden changes
IS conducive to catarrh-which is
q chronic Inflammation of the mucous
membrane surface of head-nose or
throat.
One months local treatment with
Paxtine Toilet Antiseptic will con-
vince the most skeptical that Paxtine
is not palliative but specific for all
catarrhal conditions.
Paxtine is perfectly harmless an
tiseptic and germicide in powder form
which contains all of the antiseptic
qualities of liquid antiseptics, but
with other valuable cleansing, germi-
cidal, and healing ingredients added.
Just little in a glass of water as
needed-used as spray and gargle,
will not only remove the accumulated
secretions, but heals the Inflammation,
destroys the germs of disease, and dis
pels the disagreeable odor caused by
chronic catarrh.

SUPPLY OF TIMBER

able for export, are Austria-Hungary
with which may be coupled Bosnia
and Horzegovina), Russia Gncluding
Finland), Sweden and Norway. From
all of these countries, with the eXcep
ton of Austria Hungary, Great Britain
imports largely of timber for construc-
tional purposes, and our interest in
the depletion Of their forest reserves
is no mere academic one"
BY far and away the largest forest
reserve in Europe is in Russia and
Finland, which have between them
over 50O,0O0000 acres under timber
Austria-Hungary comes next, but a
long way behind, with 100000 acres.
Sweden following with 4s,00O,0o0
acres, Germany with 100000 acres,
France with 100000 acres, Spain
with 100000 acres, Norway with IT,
100000 acres and Italy and Bulgaria
each with 100000 acres.
The eyes of the world are now d.
rected to North America in their
search for future timber supplies. The
area of land under forest in the United
States Is prodigious. The total
amounts roughly to 700,00O,000 acres.
Of which nearly 150,O00,0O0 acres are
under state management or control
Estimates naturally vary widely as
to the actual reserves Of merchantable
timber, the government census of 1900

YOUTHS HAVE TRAVELLED FAR
Eldest, Aged Six, Has Record of 10000
Miles of Sailing, While Baby Has
Never Been on Land.

Philadelphia.-With his wife and
three children, one of whom has never
been on land, another who has crossed
the equator 30 times and travelled
more than 100000 miles, and a third
who has travelled $4,000 miles by wa
ter, Capt. Nantritz Christensen of the
Norwegian steamer Sildra, will leave
in a few days for his home in Ber-
gen, Norway, to try living ashore for
awhile.
Captain Christensen was married
seven years ago, and soon left on the
Sildra. A year later Mrs. Christian
sen joined him at Sydney Australia,
with their first child, Elsie. who is now
six years of age. Both have accom-
panied Captain christensen on every
voyage he has made since that time.
Two more children were born
aboard the ship, Sildra, age four years,
and the youngest, Sydney, age four
months, came into the world while
the ship was in port at Sydney. He
has never been on lard. Two weeks
after he was born the ship sailed for
Japan, with which country the Sildra
trades on most of her voyages.

Boston.-Charles J. Glidden, donor

project. He is seeking landing sites
for stations of the aerial passenger
line that the Boston Aerial Naviga-
ton company purposes establishing

New York Hotels Are Forced to En-
large Accommodation for Att
ernoon Parties of Women.

New York-The increasing popu-
larity of the English custom of drink
ing afternoon tea among New York
women has forced the big hotels, one
after another, to devote special rooms
to that purpose. The new Hotel Mar
Unique has announced that one room
with a seating capacity of 25O per-
sons will be open for tea from to 6
o'clock every afternoon.
1t has been said by some Of those
opposed to the custom that the popu-
larity of afternoon tea was due to the
fact that 1t enables those who prefer
something stronger to have the insldl-
GUS cocktail or the popular highball
served in a cup instead Of attracting
attention by taking the liquor out OF
the ordinary glass. However that
may be. the big hotels serve hun
dreds of their patrons with tea daily,
and especially on Saturday after
Moons after the matinee.
Many of the large hotels, like the
Waldorf Astoria, Plaza, Aston, Knick-
erbocker and Manhattan. have music
from to 6, but others. notably the
St Regis, the Gotham and the Ritz
Carlton, dispense with music, as their
patrons seem to prefer social CONVEX
sation.
Mr.. Barse, of the WaldorfAstoria
said yesterday that more women real
ly came to drink tea and that it was
| a libel on the sex to say that they pre-
ferred the highball disguised in a
| china cup.

opened by Mr.. Boldt sixteen years

Methods of Cutting Are So Wasteful
That Exhaustion Is Within Meas

to London Times.

London.-An article in the London
Times concerning the worlds supply
of timber and it's wasteful handling is
attracting much attention. According
to the figures given. the situation is
rapidly growing serious. The Times
says:
THE savants of all nations have
been foretelling for years the ap-
preaching extinction of the worlds
forest reserves, but, with one or two
exceptions, little apparent effect has
been produced on the policy of govern
ment respecting afforestation.
There may now be said to be only
six countries in position to supply
unlimited quantities of merchantable
timber, namely, Russia Gncluding Fin
land), Austria Hungary, Norway and
Sweden in Europe. and Canada and
the United States in America.
"Of these the reserves in the United
States, Russia proper and Austria
Hungary are now seriously threatened
by the rapid growth of their own re.
quirements consequent on the natural
increase of the population, while In
Norway the reaping of the timber crop
has been so wasteful as to bring ex
haustion within measurable distance
The resources of Finland are still
large, as are also those Of Sweden
while Canada now represents the
worlds greatest reserve.
