Australia's Primitive Races,

The tribes OF Central Australia are
among the last of the primitive races
They are nomads who stray through
the huge and deserted tracts OF this
great continent. hunting with spears
and boomerangs They are with few
exceptions cannibaIs. Living In nuts
made Of the boughs of trees, they
have no household utensils They
count on their fingers only. and only
to the number of ten; but they dec
crate the rocks with rude attempts a,
drawing and make efforts to ornament
their shields.-Harper's Weekly.

SWEETEST OF ALL PLANTS
South American Shrub Has Proper.
ties That Put Sugar Completely
in the Shade.

It has been suggested that what
may turn out to be the great sugar
producing plant of the future is q
dwarfish shrub found in South Amer
lea. Its botanical name is Hupato-
rum rebandium, and, 1t is said, the
results Of careful experiments indi-
cate that it yields sugar from. twsn.
ty to thirty times as sweet as ordi.
nary cane or beet sugar. One adj
vantage claimed for the sugar de-
rived from this plant Is that It occu.
pies, in proportion to its sweetening
powers, less than one-tWentieth Of the
bulk Of ordinary cane sugar.
The world today uses more than
twice the amount of sugar that It
did a quarter Of a century ago. The
people Of the United States consume
great deal more sugar, in one form
or another, than those Of any other
nation. 1t Is surprising to learn that
In Europe sugar was used at first only
at feasts and for medicinal purposes.
At the close of the seventeenth CEN
tury the sugar industry in France was
monopoly controlled by the apothe-
carries. Its introduction as an article
Of table use was vigorously opposed,
eminent authorities declaring It "a
poison" Boyle and other scientists
OF his. day ayerred that sugar induced
congestion Of the lungs, apoplexy, dis
eases Of the stomach and even con-
sumption. BY far the sweetest SUBJ
stance known at this time is the coal
tar product called saccharine. It IL
two hundred times the sweetness Of
cane sugar.

a sunroom to the house.
This is place where the children
can gain health.
Greenhouses are built to give sum
light to plant life. but the children
are allowed to grow in sunless rooms.
The sunroom is best when built
upon the second floor. facing east and
south.
/ The numerous windows should be,
built close together and set In q slop-

This room should be arranged so
that it is conveniently independent of
the rest of the house. In case of Ill
ness.
Paint the walls cream, and have the
floor parquet. Carpets and rugs
should be eliminated from the sun,
roem. They harbor dust and germs.
Where the floor and wall join, q
curve should be made, as in the mod
ern hospitals
The furniture should be of the sim
plest; comfortable chairs. settees and
cushions with washable covers should
be the rule.
Here, during the spring months, the
children can study with particularly
good results. and spend all recreation
hours In this room.

RIVER SURVEY ORDERED
Arkansas Congressman Succeeds In
Getting Petit Jean In Bill

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington, ID. C,~-kepresentatiye
Jacoway has been successful in his
efforts to have a survey ordered for
the Pett Jean river In Arkansas.
The rivers and harDors bill, which
will be reported to the house in a few
days, will include provision for a
survey of Petit Jean river.
Mr. Jacoway said that if the report
Of the board Of army engineers, which
will have charge of the survey, is
favorable, it will mean much to the
citizens Of Danyille, Bellyille and
Havana
"One direct result if a favorable re.
port is made said Mr, Jacoway,
will be that these towns will enjoy
competitive freight rate, something
they have been trying to get for a
long time"
If the engineerss report is favor
able, Mr.. Jacoway will get an appro.
priation for the rivers improvement.
Il Is impossible to get this appropra.
tioa until the engineers have made
their report on the survey,
