MOST DEADLY OF P0ISOMS

A poison. the most powerful known,
is reported to have been extracted by
a German chemist from the seeds OF
the ricinus, the familiar castor oil
plant, and has been attracting much
attention on account Of It's remarkable
properties. It's power Is estimated to
be so great that gram-about a thlr-
tieth of an ounce-would kill mill
ion and q half guinea pigs. If admin
istered SO as to cause severe illness
without death, 1t gives immunity
against a larger quantity, and the
dose can be gradually increased until
more than 1000 times as much can be
endured as would kill an untreated
animal. Though arsenic, morphine and
other poisons can he taken in larger
and larger quantities, nothing ap-
preaching this marvellous increase In
dose can be borne.

STRANGE GREENLAND TREE

Dauphin county, Pennsylvania, con-
tains the only tree Of its kind In the
world, a species of Greenland fir, and
although less than a foot high the
circumference of the space covered
by it's branches Is sixty feet. This
tree Is located on the Shenk farm in
Bull Frog valley. 1t is at least 200
years old, and from a short distance
1t appears to be simply a collection
of small shrubs. Horticulturists OF
the country who have heard of the
phenomenon have made offers of SUBJ
stantial sums for the tree, with a
view to removing 1t, roots and all;
but these offers have been consist
emily refused. Aside from tree spe-
cialists and residents of the neigh
borhood, few persons have heard OF
the spreading tree. In Greenland, its
original home, the species never
grows high and is little more than a
shrub. In it's natural surroundings
1t does not attain anywhere near the
circumference of the one in Pennsyl-
vania.

Paner Jeily CUBS,

The new paper sanitary tumblers
which have just come out ought to
be hailed with delight by the modern
housekeeper,~ especially at preserving
time. These little vessels are made
from spruce pulp. They are treated
with aseptic qualities at the mill be-
fore being packed in cartons and
shipped to the various stores and in
these cartons sold to the housekeeper,
SO the only thing she has to do Is to
break the seal and the jelly Jars are
ready for use.
They are 80 inexpensive that they
may easily be thrown away at tho
end Of the winter season, says the
Philadelphia Times. :. Each tumbler Is
treated with wax process which en-
ables the jelly to slip out as easily
as from a glass Jar.
Little round lids come for covering
the vessels and slip into a small
groove at the top. The hot liquid can
be poured directly into these paper
tumblers.

FEW FILIPINOs OLD MAIDS

Although Filipino women do not
usually marry early, grandmothers at
thirty are not uncommon. Such as do
not marry, and these are very few,
generally retire from the world to the
seclusion of a convent or beaterio In
some capacity or another, and conse-
quently the old maid of Europe and
the United States Is practically un-
known. The Filipiros as rule make
good wives and tender mothers, and
are very devoted to their husbands
and children. The mother-in-law Is
also a rara avis. No Filipino would
brook any interference between her.

lives with him. Whatever his short

(husband), and as such always occu-
pies the first place in her considera-

STRANGE--BU TRUE

All gossipers and tattlers are bad
enough, but deliver us from wo-

envy and jealousy will attempt to
blight the fair name of the woman
who has been her companion, by
making a house to house canvass,
telling tale here and one there,
me thinks | can see the demon
now, as she enters the home of the
one she desires to injure by un-
folding her story, she commences
thus, "Oh, | have something to
tell YOU" but you must not repeat
it, it was just told to me and must
surely be true, it is about Mary
Doe, or Jane Roe. Mother says
it is awful, and that | cannot 90
with her any more. You can see
the evil in this tattler now. She
has made the first thrust, stabbed
her young friend in the back with
the piece Of false news, and thus
she makes her rounds from place
to place, doing all the harm she
can. Reflect about this awful ha.
bit of talking too much, and shun
a tattler as you would rattle
snake.

Recent j. s. Land
Office Decision

1t was not contemplated by the
act Of Jan. l3, 1898, relating to
location and construction of reser-
voirs, that the reservation should
be made according to legal SUBJ
divisions or to extend to any lands
not necessary for the practical use
for which the reservation is made.
Nor does the declarent acquire
such right by the approval of his
map of location that that will pre-
vent the Secretary Of the Interior
from reforming the reservation at
any time and restoring to set tie
ment and entry all lands not
necessary to the full enjoyment
and use Of all rights contemplated
by the act. Citing Wilson vs..
Parker (32 l.. d. l48).
The right Of repayment does not
exist when a desert land entry, on
the proofs presented, is properly
allowed and its subsequent cancel
lation is due to the discovery that
through mistake, not the fault Of
the Government, the entry in fact
covers land not reclaimed or in
tended to be reclaimed,
The presence Of trees upon land
in considerable numbers indicates
that the land is nondesert in char
acter. The commercial value Of
the trees has little, if any, bearing
upon the question Of classification.
