Manurlno With Mud.

IN China and Japan, according tc
Professor F. H. King, as much labor
and time are spent in special fertiliza'
ton of the soil as In seeding and har
vesting the crops. In addition tc
barnyard and household manure, great
quantities of bean. rap seed, cotton
seen and peanut oil cake ere used as
fertilizers, and an enormous tonnage
of canal, reservoir ard river mud is
also applied. Single dressings of mud
sometimes amount to from 70 to 100
tons per acre. The practice of irri.
cation is very extensive, and all ir.
irigated areas are placed under condi.
lions which practically eliminate sur.
face erosion. Both canal and reser-
voir mud are fermented in organic
matter to be used as fertilizers. The
IMongolians practice systematically
the culture of legumes as a source OF
nitrogen. The dense population and
increasingly smaller holdings both
necessitate and render possible the
bestowal of extreme personal care
upon the crops.

FISH WITH VEGETABLE MILK
Indians Of Bolivia Find II Easy to Par
alyze and Capture the Finny
Tribe.

Indians of Bolivia have a peculiar
method of going fishing. A writer
in the Geographical Journal says:
"They use the milk of the 'manuna'
or 'soliman' tree, the scientific name
of which is, | think, hura crepitans,
of the Euphorbia genus, for catch
ing fish. | went with some of the
Indians to a lagoon in the forest
Here, floating on the surface of the
water, perfectly alive and yet abso-
lutely unable to get away, were fish
of all kinds, big and small, from
which they selected the most pala-
table for food. The milk is merely
poured into the water, and as it
spreads every fish which comes in
contact with it becomes paralyzed
and yet is not affected as food. More
over, the effect appears to last for
several days without killing the fish,
The milk is also used as a cure for
toothache, as a caustic and for the
purpose of suicide, for which a tea
spoonful is employed. As a poison
they say the results are painful"

SLEEP TWICE AROUND CLOCK
English Physician Says That 10 Worth
Weeks Holiday for Worm
Out People.

If you are just about the end Of
your tether, if your nerves jangle so
that even your best friends can hear
them, and if each day feels like a
fiery torture almost not to be borne
it is a sign that you are worn out
and in need of rest and recupera-
ltion. If your vacation is already
past or still in the distant future try
taking a vacation in minimum, that
is sleep the clock around twice,
choosing Sunday if you can spare
no other day, and see how fit you
will feel afterward. This is the ad-
vice Of a well-known English physi-
clan and it is well worth taking.
"To pass "a hours in bed,"Ihe said
to a friend, instead of rushing
away for a few hours change of
scene, when you are run down phys
ically and mentally, is worth a
weeks holiday. The night before
going to a theater, to take the mind
off worries, and having supped wise
ly and we'll, instructions should be
given that the morning calling shall
be omitted.
"Then sleep. On waking again
ring for some hot milk. Drink it
and sleep again and keep on sleep
ing. Have nothing in the intervals
more substantial than soup. Do not
read. Keep the eyes closed constant
ly. Have a warm bath in the ve-
ming and sleep again.
"Vhen you are tired Of sleeping
sleep again for the night. Nothing
calms the nerves more than resting
the eyes" ~a.

Safety Belt for Airmen.

A French Altman has devised s.a
safety belt designed to keep airman
from being thrown from their ma
chimes and to help break the shock OF
falling with t6s aeroplane. It coh-
sists of a broad leather strap, which
covers the whole Of the chest and
part Of the abdomen, to the ends OF
which are attached powerful elastic
straps, which are in turn made fast
to the machine by leather straps.
Should the aeroplane meet with an &C
cident, the shock is taken up by the
elastic, and the airman is kept in bis
seal until parts of the framework OF
the wing structure have broken the
fall for him.

CLEAR STREETS OF CATS.

Eight hundred and sixty-si1 cats
captured in one night recently at
New York, is the record of the So
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals, which is now sending
out its wagons after dark to pick up
these homeless animals. Practically
all the animals gathered in r
found to be suffering from mango
or other parasitical diseases, and
many of them are MANNED and re-
duced to a skeleton by starvation,
Their merciful destruction is re-
garded by the society as being in
the interest of the public as well as
of the animals themselves.

FRANCE GETTING sT1NGY.

The list of gifts made in France
to public bodies and charities in
1910 has been published. They
amount to So, $4,000, as compared
with $2O,272,000 in 1909. The to-
tai of 2A million dollars below the
average for the last ten years, and
the decrease is ascribed to the in
crease in taxation, more especially
in legacy duties. NJ. Chauchard's
legacies head the list, his works of
art given to the public being valued
at $1,420,000.

Of whom he had made an intimate.
The only feeling that It would be pos

Hunter again must be a Multiplying,
half-incredulous contempt. And if
that vas his feeling for the man he
had trusted most II loved the most
deeply, what must be it for the rest OF
humankind? What did 1t matter what
they thought of him or what they did

ciety was tc escape from it.
He fell to wondering, as he hung,
suspended, over that rosy eXpanse of
feecy fog, whether, were the thing to
do over again, he would act as he had
acted five years ago; whether he
would content himself with a single
d~isdainful denial OF the monstrous
thing they charged him with; whether
he would resign again, under fire, and
go away, leaving his furnished name
for the DAVIS to peck at.
Heretofore he had always answered
that question with a fierce afirma-
tive. Today 1t left him wondering.

that would have been necessary to
clear himself, he would never have

The Highest Garden.

, The highest garden in the world is
said to be the Alpine Garden of Bot
any, which was laid out by the late
Canon Glamour, formerly rector of the
Hospice of Little St. Bernard, the
London Globe has discovered. 1t is
situated at an elevation Of 1900 me-
tiers, or 7,150 feet. Here are to be
found almost all species of mountain
flowers, not only those common In the
Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, the eau
casus and the Balkans, but even from
far of Himalaya. The canon con-
ceived the idea in 1888, but it was not
until 1902 that his project became
effective. In the latter year the com
mune of Thule gave him the land.

The little valley which he hung
poised above was sheltered by a second
ridge of rocky, ice-capped hills to the
north, and, except for streaks, denot-
ing crevices, here and there, was quite

Up above the glacier, on the farth-

were poppy field, but for the impos-
sibility of their, growing in such .
place. No vegetable growth was pos

that clean-cut. almost vertical. rocky
face. And yet, what else could have
given it that blazing yellow color!
Some day he was to learn the answer
to that question.
But the thing that caught his eye

hands, day after day, while he master
ed the art that no mar had ever mas
tered before.
He had set himself this task because
1t was the only one he knew that did
not involve contact with his fellow
beings. He must have something that
he could work at alone. Work and
solitude we're two things that he had
felt an overmasterinK craving for. And
the possibility he haA faced with .
light heart every morning-the posi-
bility of a sudden and violent death
before night, had been no more to
him than an agreeable spice to the
days work.
1t was not until he had actually
learned to fly, had literally shaken the
dust OF the earth from his feet and
taken to the sky al his abode, that his
wound had healed. The three months
that he had spent in this upper arctic

would have wheeled aloft and gone

would hardly have hung, soaring

lift again the veil Of mystery which
It had drawn across the tragic scene

first time. below the horizon. BY now
there were four or Ave hours, out OF

open water of the little bay. he saw a
ship, and on the shore a cluster OF

1t struck him. even from the height
at which he scared, that the ship, tied
to an ice-foe in the shelter of the
great headlard. did not look like a
whaler, nor like tire sort OF craft
which an arctic explorer would have
selected for his purposes. 1t had more
the trim smartness OF a yacht.

Losses Caused by War.

Norman Angel calculated the Fran
co-Prussian wal has cost Germany
$4OO, 600, 900 more than she got in in
IDENTITIES from conquered France,
For instance, he says $150,000 900 was
spent by Germany in increasing Its
peace army to 53O,0 900 men; $40O, 000,-
900 in wages was lost by the Germans
killed and wounded. The permanent
German war force was enlarged by
100, 600 men, and that has been main,
tanned for 40 years, at a total cost OF
81 600, 0O0, 900. Then there was the
loss of German trade and German
foreign markets.

rather than in untanned hide. He
seemed slighter, sprightlier, and In
every way to convey the impression
of having come more recently from
the civilized, habitable portion of the
world than his companions. He car
ried a rife sting by a strap over his
shoulder, evidently foreseeing no Inn
mediate use for it, and a flask.
Cayley was too far aloft for their
conversation to be audible to him, but
he could hear that they were talking.
The leather-clad man appeared to be
doing the most of 1t, and, from the
infection of his voice. he seemed to
be speaking in English.
Presently he noticed that the leath-
er-clad man had forged a little ahead
of his companions, or, rather-like a
flash, this idea occurred to Cayley-
that the others were purposely lag
cling a little behind.
And then, before that sinister idea
could formulate itself into a definite
suspicion, his eyes widened with
amazement, and the cry he would
have uttered died in his throat; for
this man, who had SO ~innocently al
lowed the others to fall behind him,
suddenly staggered, clutched at some
thing-it looked like a thin ivory dart
that had transfixed his throat,
tugged it out in a sudden flood OF
crimson, reeled q little and then went
backwards over the CLASSY edge Of q
assure in the ice, which lay just to
the left of the path where he had
been walking.
From the instant when Cayley had
noticed the others dropping behind, to
the last glimpse he had Of the body
of the murdered man could hardly
have been five seconds.
The instant the murdered man DIS
appeared, another, who had not previ.
ously been with the party, It seemed,
appeared from behind a hummock OF
ice. There could be no doubt either
that he was the assassin, or that he
was the commander Of the little group
OF skin-clad figures that remained
