Bearded Ladies'"

NJ. Brandt. a Danish professor
comes TO the conclusion that beardet
ladies in time to come will be the or
der of the day. Ladies with boards
who are now TO be seen may be re-
garded as the precursors of the future
rae and the professor comes to the
conclusion that the more masculine
woman becomes In her habits SO much
the more will she be in appearance
He does not think that bearded ladies'
will become general until at least two
centuries have elapsed. His investi.
cations show that the number of wo-
men with traces of ~mustaches, al
though clearly visible. increases but
slowly The Paris contemporary from
which we take the foregoing suggests
that the professor has missed the
great point which be might have made

Clean Money.

United States Treasurer McClung
has recommended in his annual report
that congress provide additional facilie
ties for exchanging old and defaced
United States paper currency for new.
Asserting that there is a widespread
interest which advocates a cleaner
and more sanitary currency, he says
that the sentiment is a laudable one
and should be attainable because the
expense is but a trile compared with
the beneficial results. 1t has been
demonstrated that bacteria attach
themselves readily to paper money,

The Russian department of agricul-
tuer has founded at the Riga Poly
technic a school for specialists in
swamp cultivation. The North Pc
chora expedition worked many years
with great success in the desert
ed region Of the northern swamps, and
proved that the swamps Of the Arch
angel province are full Of wealth, and
that millions Of peasants, devoured
by poverty and hunger in their native
places, can find food and shelter in
the swampy regions after their cult
walton. With small expense the
swamps can be turned into land GOV
cred with rich grass.
