The Kat Plant,

In parts Of Abyssinia and Yemen
the natives use a plant called kat
(Catha edulis), the effects of which are
similar to those Of the Peruvian coca.
The freshly cut leaves have rather
pleasant taste and produce a kind OF
intoxication Of long duration, with
none Of the disagreeable features of
ordinary inebriety. Messengers and
soldiers are enabled by chewing the
leaves TO go without food for mum
Der Of days. Among those who abuse
the habit the body tends TO dry, the
visage becomes emaciated, and nerv-
GUS trouble follows, the most usual
being a trembling of the limbs, but
these cases are rare.

The American Cottage"

Professors Greenough and Kittredge
Of Harvard in their book on the ways
Of English words point out that "cot-
tage," In the strict sense of laborer's
dwelling, has never been adopted into
popular American use because Amer
lea has never really had the thing
The word in America has always had
literary and sentimental associations
and finally has come to be used for the
most magnificent summer residences
This has gone much further than the
use of the word In England to mean a
villa. In America q "cottager" de-
fnitely signifies person who is above
staying at a boarding house or hotel

ment that hereafter all postal en-

by Postmaster English in a communi-
cation from the department several
days ago The many false statements
made by senders OF parcel post mail
concerning the contents of packages
which have been brought to light
within the past several months in an
investigation conducted by the Post
office Department are the cause for

The attention Of postal clerks is
called to the fact that when a parcel

that il contains merchandise. The

PASS THE 100, OOO, 900 MARK

According to experts of the census

O'Clock the experts estimate this coun-
try had 100, 600, $50 inhabitants.
Last January the experts of the
treasury department and of the GEN.
sus bureau differed widely as to the
time when the hundred million mark
would be reached. The treasury men
claimed that on January q or % it
would be crossed, but the census bu-
reau took into consideration the un-
usual drop in immigration on account
of the war in Europe.
