An Authors Depository.

Last year the Sutro branch Of the
California State library, located in
San Francisco, offered to receive for
safe keeping the manuscripts Of un-
finished books. The idea has worked
out so well that a substantial collec-
ton of manuscripts has been estab-
lished, the collection being described
as the Authors depository. One hun
dred authors have taken advantage OF
the offer and have sent their manu-
scripts, either printed or imprinted,
finished or unfinished, to the deposit
tory, and letters from authors indi-
cate that the depository is much APP
preciated by writer's as a means of
preserving valuable matter that
might otherwise became lost. A per-
manent authors depository is also
maintained in the California depart
ment of the state library, which is To-
Gated at sacramento.

Food pI.ntItuI IN the Woods.


II Is said Daniel Boone could take
his rifle and bag Of salt and live
in comfort on what the woods pro
vIded. Several men on wagers have
gone into the forest virtually naked
and worked out living and suitable
clothing equipment
According to foresters Of the New
York State College Of Forestry at
Syracuse. It is still possible to find in
the forests OF the state, even without
the use Of the game which is so care
fully protected, sufficient food to make
life not only possible but pleasant,
says the New York Evening Sun.
This forest food supply is divided
into several groups such as fruits
nuts, herbs, roots and vegetables And
this makes no allowance for the types
Of edible mushrooms, for a special
knowledge Of varieties is necessary

deadly toadstool.
