Such cases of brotherly kindness and practical are not met with often in Weekly.

Directly in the way there was a very thick and heavy- quicksand, and in addition a great body of water that could not be con trolled by ordinary means. It was therefore decided to freeze a large built of the sand and in this way prepare a medium through which to tunnel. This was by the use of large pipes, closed at the lower ends. These were sunk to the required depth, were placed sufficiently close to- for the purpose and in a line surrounding the space to be frozen. Inside of these, smaller pipes, open at both ends, were placed, into them chloride of magnesium was forced. This ran through the lower end of the inner tube and rose in the space between the two tubes. Grad- the surrounding quicksand and water froze until it could be cut away like rock.

So they proceeded to Eu- rope, and in London they consulted with one William Morris, who pro- them with ad lib- papers, furniture and stained glass and the like. They wanted, too, some tapestries.

The house was finished, but no tapestries were there. They I had been living in it fur months, and i still no tapestries. Nearly two years had elapsed since their visit to London, and the tapestries were not forthcoming. But they had faith in Morris and never said a i word.

Three and one-half miles equal, within a small fraction, three knots. The result of this difference, of course, is that the speed of a vessel in miles per hour is always considerably larger than when stated in knots, and the confusion of the terms some- times gives rise to rather remark- able claims of speed performance.

U do Paton A Atkinson, Tb Need for Sweets Dear- Versos Cane An Physician's Ar- Answered. The fondness of children for sweets is supposed by many to indicate a physiological need for them which should be supplied. That a amount of sugar is required is evident from the fact that the starch of food is transformed into sugar in the process of and because many of the most valued edible fruits contain a proportion of the same sub- Stance. But it should not forgot- ten that the starches constitute a large excess of the food of most man- kind and that there is, therefore, danger of an over-supply of glucose from this source alone. Further, tho sweet of fruits is grape sugar while that used in confection- and for domestic purposes is cane sugar, which is as far removed from glucose as starch is, and must pass through a transforming similar to that which starch in order to become glucose. As to the childhood appetite for cane sugar, it is undoubtedly mainly because of its general use. Sir An- of wide Arctic says that the northernmost races have no knowledge of sweets, and their make wry faces and spit out sugar with disgust, grin with ecstasy at the sight of a little blubber. The refinements modern cookery consist very largely in the multiplied and com- use of sugars and starches, and much of the dyspepsia that afflicts humanity has its origin in consumption thus fostered. If fruits were made a due part family subsistence, instead of an luxury, there would be less of this complaint. There is enough glucose in raisins, figs and dates to supply all physiological needs, to the entire exclusion of from all table drinks and desserts, as well as the complete banishment of confectionery. Child-life and mother-life would be the sweeter the absence of these sweets. An in a widely-circulated journal, written by an eminent physician, strongly recommends cane sugar on the ground that it is a concentrate;, heat-giving food, capable of sustaining under ex- exertions. The same may- be said of alcohol, but docs not prove alcohol a good, everyday article of subsistence. The of sugar makes three the fat and the In all other cases it is in- that sugar should not be taken before meals, because will destroy the appetite for other This reason is in itself a fatal condemnation; for no mate article of food will destroy the appetite for other natural foods less taken in excess, and it is not the excess, but the use that is referred Judd Farmer.

Not less dainty than jewel cases are the boudoirs of the young women who will come out this winter as New York's heiress Many of these boudoirs, or as they are familiarly j called, have been newly fitted up for this coining out season; and are as elaborate as money can obtain, while keeping the exquisite daintiness of a French boudoir. The much discussed and very pretentious little girl. Miss Gertrude Vanderbilt, has u white boudoir as one of a set of three rooms in the Fifth avenue palace facing Central park. There is a sleeping-room, a dressing-room and a parlor or just as she chooses to call it. This last is a large, almost square room, fitted up entirely in white without so much as a dash of gold; nor are even the brass, bu-t of white metal. Between the two at front win- and on either side; with growing plants, is a large oval mirror of French so fine that once a new chambermaid walked into it thinking it another room. All around the oval mirror are wild flowers in a garland, whose ends are held by flying boys. Over the mantel, which is enameled wood, there is a similar mirror, similarly and a with the same floral design adorns the white wall. It is not a bare room. There are too many fresh flowers, too ma girlish me- for this. But its simplicity is so pronounced t hat- many another and less favored would plead for something little The furniture is blue and white and the carpet, woven like a rug, is the same.

I was resting near one cf the la goons in South Florida, one about noon, after a morning in hunting. It was a clear, day, and, after finishing a luncheon, I had my attention at- by a slight movement in th underbrush about ten feet back me. I started a little upon an enormous rattle snake stretched out in sun. It had evidently been sleep and was just waking up from its slumbers. For this reason it had no; its presence before by rattling. wanted a good skin of a fine men, and picked up my gun to kill it; but, before I could shoot, the of another snake, a large blacksnake this time, made me The rattler suddenly raised its head and immediately began to coil and rattle. The blacksnake stopped in its journey and looked savagely at the rattler, as if its strength. The two reptiles were angry and their bead-like eyes seemed to emit sparks of fire. For nearly a minute the two re- in this attitude, rattler coiled ready to strike, and the black- snake with head quivering with sup- pressed emotion as It moved from to side. Then the challenge seemed to be accepted, and the blacksnake suddenly darted in a curve toward the rattler, but the curve did not bring the long trailing body within reach of the deadly fangs. With rapid motions, the blacksnake began to move around the coiled rattler in various-sized circles now narrowing and now broadening them. The rattler twisted Its body slightly to keep its eyes upon the enemy, striking now and then as the curves brought the black reptile close to it. But the blacksnake was too quick in its movements. Round and round it flew until its body seemed to length- en out into one circle of black. It made me dizzy to watch the reptile, and the head seemed to sway uneasily as if in the same way by the strange evolutions of its adversary. The strikes of the rattler became more frequent, and less accurate, and once or twice it nearly lost its after a vicious dive. But the blacksnake never once changed its tactics. Swifter swifter its lithe body seemed to move, until the rattler was unable to follow it with any degree of ac- curacy. Then suddenly without warning, there was a change. The black circle suddenly curved sharp- toward the center. The black- snake had made a dive at its dizzy adversary, and when the two together in a heap a moment later I could see that the black- snake had the rattler by the throat in such a way that the poisonous fangs were Useless. In this position the two twisted and squirmed around on the ground until finally the lithe blacksnake had wrapped its body around the thick one of its Tighter and tighter the coils were drawn white the jaws seemed to be locked eternally into the throat of the rattler. For nearly ten min- they rolled around in this way, and then the Struggles grew weaker until the rattler stretched out as if dead. The conqueror, however, did not loosen its hold on the throat the body was quiet except for the wriggling of the tip of the tail. Then it let go, and after circling around the body several times, it slunk away in the swamp. N. Y. Tribune.

CAMPHOR IN NAGASAKI. Destruction of Trees Because of the Demand for It. In consequence of frequent in- received at this consulate from private sources in regard to camphor, I have deemed it to obtain all available in regard to its growth, and shipment, writes Consul to tho state depart- The manufacture of camphor is an important industry on the island of From the port of there were exported to the United States in the years 1872 to 1890 1,230 tubs and thirty-four logs, valued at Camphor trees abundantly In in the island of No camphor was exported from Nagasaki to the United States from 1890 to 1891. Camphor oil is mostly exported from Kobe. Camphor oil can be had in lots of to at a time. It is usually packed in old kerosene oil tins and cases and shipped abroad in that manner. There are two oil as it is d from the camphor and the same oil after being heated and the solid camphor taken from it by There is a wide difference in price, the first-named being worth per first cost, while the last-named is worth about half that price. Foreign firms at Nagasaki put it through a further process by sub- liming it from quicklime in iron in which it condenses in the translucent cakes. The native pro- sells his product at an average price of to per Camphor is almost entirely shipped by direct sailing vessels to New York. Steamers do not usual- carry it, as it is likely to affect other cargo, though it is occasion- ally carried by steamers from Japan to New York via the Suez canal. Via Vancouver or San Francisco the rate of freight would be prohibitive. In view of the fact that the de- of the tree is necessary for obtaining the gum, the increased demand has resulted disastrous y for the camphor forests; and. net- withstanding the law compelling the planting of new trees for each one destroyed, the decrease in the nut i- of available trees is becoming more and more marked and must In time result in at least temporary cessation of the exportation fr- m this district of camphor in any large quantities. THE PRISON MULE. A Yellow Animal That Had De-in Twenty Years in Service. The United States penitentiary at island has lost one of the longest-term prisoners that was ever identified with the institution. Jack, the yellow mule, has been at rest. He will be remembered by every person who has any knowledge of the prison since the year 1871, says the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. When the contract was let in that year a slanting wharf was built aid a tramway laid, and old Jack hauled the stone and material for the prison that was landed by ships. He has been used about the prison since its occupancy in hauling wood and sup- plies and in plowing the garden, etc. lie has been in the service of tho prison for twenty-three years, being eight years old when he arrived. He had many masters in his day among prisoners. Arthur Perry, who was warden for many years, can tell many amusing incidents in connection with old Jack. Jack was always use- in the search for escaped prison- and aided materially in their re- capture, being used in notifying the settlers that prisoner had He will also be by early settlers, as no fence was ever built high enough to keep him from getting on the other side and lifting a sheep or pig up by the back with his teeth and carrying him about the field for his own amusement.
