BAD EFFECT OF SMOKY AIR
Neither Animals Nor Vegetation Flour
ish In the Vicinity Of Large
Manufacturing Plants.

Whether live stock is likely to suf-
fer when living in the neighborhood
Of railroad yards, industrial plants
and large manufacturing centers, was
the question that the Leeds tEng.l
university proposed to Yorkshire
farmers, and the answers showed the
affirmative not only for animals but
also as concerns grass and other
plants. It appears that the growth OF
young stock is kept back under such
conditions, and in the case of old stock
or horses these are seen to require
much more care and food than those
which live in a pure air. Such effects
on animals are due partly to the direct
action of the vitiated air when taken
into the lungs and on the other hand
by the very poor quality of grass that
grows here, as it cannot develop un.
der good conditions. Sheep raising Is
found to be specially difficult in these
places, even impossible. Near Leeds,
this had to be discontinued, for the
wool was of very poor quality, besides
being full of impurities of various
kinds. Thus it appears that the same
general rules apply to animals as to
human beings under such circum-
stances.-Scientifc American.

Iapan,s Paper undereIothIna.

The Japanese are now making un-
derclothing of finely crisped or grained
paper, the New York Weekly states.
After the paper has been cut to a
pattern, the different parts are sewn
together and hemmed, and the places
where the buttonholes are to be
formed are strengthened with calico
or linen. The paper is very strong
aud at the same time very flexible.
After a garment has been worn few
hours it will interfere with the per
spiration of the body no more than do
garments made of cotton fabric.
The paper is not sized, nor is it i'm
permeable. After becoming wet the
paper is difficult to tear. When an en-
deavor is made to tear it by hand it
presents almost as much resistance
as the thick skin used for making
gloves.

Eault In Education.

One regrettable fact about the ad-
vanced education of many young per
sons is that they have been aienated
from their homes and families and the
"old-fashined" ways of the latter. The
tragedy of this gulf which school and
college have created between students
and their parents is known only to the
mothers and fathers who have endured
it. Usually, also, the explanation is
that the children have not won to even
the beginnings of wisdom, else they
would value the real worth of the
parents whose greatness of loyalty and
service and sacrifice is beyond the
power of the schools to bestow. Any
education which makes boy ashamed
of his mother and father is bad edu'
cation.
