Constitution for China.
China’s emperor has announced that
it has been decided that the interests
of the empire demand the granting
of many . reforms and eventually a
constitution, the latter to be formulat-
ed when the people have ben suffici-
ently educated. The question of re-
forms and of a constitution is being
studied by Chinese commissioners
who have been visiting Europe and
America, and the emperors announce-
ment is the result of their observa-
tions and reports. The granting of a
constitution to China may not be very
remote. The fact that Japan has been
working under one for some years and
has. achieved most valuable results
cannot fail to have a great effect up-
on her neighbor.

Dimensions of Sea Waves.
A recent article by Dr. Vaughan
Cornish, in the London Geographical
Journal, furnishes some extremely
interesting data respecting deep sea
waves. From many hundreds of ob-
servations made during 40 years by
independent observers, he shows that
on the average the height of a wave
in féet (measured from crest to
trough) is in round numbers one-half
of the wind’s velocity in statute miles
per hour. By this rule, which does
not express a dynamical law, the
height of a wave raised in the deep,
. open sea by a wind of full hurricane
force—i. e., having a velocity of 90
statute miles per hour—would be 45
feet.
To Save Cotton Waste.
It is estimated that at least 2,000,
000 bales of cotton are lost through-
out the South every year because of
the frost and seattered cotton left in
the field by the pickers. According
to a correspondent of the Manufac-
turers’ Ilecord of Baltimore, a ma-
chine has been invented which will
save nearly all this loss. :
THE WAY OUT
Change of Food Brought Success and
Happiness.
An ambitious but delicate girl,
after failing to go through school on
account of nervousness and hysteria,
found in Grape-Nuts the only thing
that seemed to build her up and fur-
nish her the peace of health.
“From infancy,” she says, “I have
not been strong. Being ambitious to
learn at any cost I finally got to the
High School, but soon had to aban-
don my studies on account of nervous
prostration and hysteria.
“My food did not agree with me, I
grew thin and despondent. I could
not enjoy the simplest social affair
for I suffered constantly from nerv-
ousness in spite of all sorts of medi-
cines. / )
“This wrr'ched condition contin-
ued until I was twenty-five, when I
became interested in the letters of
those who had cases like mine and
who were being cured by eating
Grape-Nuts.
“I had little faith but procured a
box and after the first dish I ex-
perienced a peculiar satisfied feeling
that I had never zained from any
ordinary food. I slept and rested
better that night and in a few days
began to grow stronger.
“I had a new feeling of peace and
restfulness. In a few weeks, to my
great joy, the headaches and nerv-
ousness left me and life became
bright and hopeful. I resumed my
studies and later taught ten months
with ease—of course using Grape-
Nuts every day. . It is now four years
since I began to use Grape-Nuts, I
am the mistress of a happy home and
the old weakness has never re-
turned.” Name given by Postum

HUMAN BIRDS.
Why Butterflies and Moths Are So
Much Less Regarded.
‘Why the world should care for
birds much more than for butterflies
and moths has sometimes perplexed
the naturalist mind. Watch butter-
flies and moths closely, not in a
cork lined case, but the living and
free and real thing in the open air,
telligence to find out that they are
lovely in their dress, curiously inter-
esting and often exquisite in their
habits. Take their food. There may
emperor butterfly which has an ugly
letch for carrion, but on the whole
our English butterflies and moths are
the most refined, the daintiest eaters
In the world: Epicene their feasts
may be in the sense that members of
both sexes will sit down at the same
board—perhaps the pinky white
blossoms of some great burnet saxi-
frage or of cowparsnip in July—but
not epicene if that be many courses,
gross feeding or carouse. It is as
food etherealized that the skipper
butterflies or the humming-bird
moths sip from the flowers. The
very honey in the bee comb is not
350 chaste, so absolutely unpolluted
as the nectar which the skipper but-
terflies draw from the wild vetch-
lings, . or the small copper butterfly
irom the wild thymes; or as that
scented supper which conopsea, the
fragrant orchid, at this season pays
as marriage fee to the moths by the
riverside. And then the choice way
they take their food. ~Our:way at
best is by comparison hogging in the
irough. Kneeling in the grasses and
bending down very gently one may
see the butterfly unroll a long, hair
like spring, the trunk, and plunge
this beneath the petals. A” minute
fraction of a drop of nectar is all
that it extracts. Perhaps the butter:
fly does not always carry out his part
of ‘the bargain; he may get his nec-
tar without conveying the pollen be-
tween anther to pistil; but the
amount of nectar is so trivial that
the stingiest, hardest bargaining
flower knowing of the offence, might
pardon it. Nectar has but one draw-
back—it’s a little sticky. The skip-
per butterfly knows this, and he will
aot roll up and put away his delicate,
feeling trunk till he has cleared it of
the smallest speck of sweet. He has
no napkin and finger glass, but not
the less he knows how to get that
trunk quite clean and comfortable
before he spins away for rapturous
wing play in the sunshine among the
grasses and clovers.
Or, again, the courtships of some
of the butterflies—can anything be
more delicate? Truly, like Brown-
ing’s “lyric love, half angel and half
bird,” it is “all a wonder and a wild
desire.” What sweethearting goes
on in June when the pearl bordered
fritillaries are flying in the coppices
of bugle flower and sleeply speedwell!
You may often see the lady fritillery
or the lady orange tip jilted after a
furious flirtation, the base.csuitor fly-
Ing off; though little she recks, with
such an abundance of suitors all
around.
If then butterflies and moths are
often so spruce and graceful, so dis-
tinguished in habit—food, flight,
courtship—and so suggestive of deep-
ly interesting problems of life, how
is it we are not so touched: and de-
lighted by them as we are by birds?
The answer clearly must be this:
Butterflies and moths, like the whole
insect creation—even bees and wasps
which have politics and a wonderful
organizaticn—are quite non-human.
They are completely outside our
world. At most they remind us very
superficially or fantastically of our
own habits, passions, appearance.
Birds and our doss are more ‘kindly
human.” There is something here in
the nature of sympathy—at any rate
sympathy on one side. The songs of
the chr--sh, the lark, the willow wren
go straight home to us, their nests,
their passionate care for their young,
their grief, short-lived but poignant,
over the loss of their young—these
things touch us deeply. We make
exceptions; yet on the whole it is
certain that we honor birdsyas we do
dogs. Practically nothing of the
sort exists in our relations with the
beautiful, sinister and utterly aloof
world of insects. The insect is noth-
ing if not non-human. Entomolo-
gists are not particularly cruel or
callous so far as one has noticed.
Yet the: carry about a cyanide bottle
and brush into it and cork dowal rare
moths caught in sugar and rum traps
cunningly placed on the trees. Here
is a good test: suppose it were possi-
ble to colle¢t birds thus—is it con-
ceivable that any man with a con-
science would carry about a cyanide
bottle for the purpose? Violent
words are usually weak words, but
really a cyanide bottle for birds
would seem like murder.
Even in its form, its lovely outline,
the bird in some ways approaches
nearly our ideal of human beauty;
whereas the beauty of the butterfly,
moth, snake, beetle, fish and flower
is so often essentially non-human;
indeed from some of these we shrink!
in the very act of admiration; spider,
mouse, moth and bat, each has a ter.
ror for some of us.—Saturday Re-

SHAD BECOMING EXTINCT.
Commissioner of Fisheries Says Run
~’ for Spawning Has Been
Wiped Out.
That there is grave danger that the
shad will become extinct is pointed
out by Urited States Commissioner
of Fisheries George M. Bowers. Ex-
plaining how the toothsome fish may
follow the way of the bison and the
wild pigeon, he says in his annual re-
port:
“Under the conditions which have
been becoming more and more pro-
nounced the run of fish for spawning
purposes has been practically wiped
{out in many of the most important
: Streams, and unless the State prompt-
ly take some action by which a fair
percentage of the shad may reach
their spawning grounds, the future
for this fish is gloomy.”
The Passing of the Frog.
Owing to the fact that he has come
to be esteemed as an article of diet
to no less degree than his European
cousin, the American bullfrog (Rana
catesbiana) has been hunted so close-
ly that his loud voice is seldom heard
on our rivers or the many small lakes
adjacent to this city. The edible frog
of the south of Europe (Rana esculen-
ta) is inferior in size and flavor to
our own bullfrog and is raised for the
market exactly as American farmers
raise chickens or ducks. Canadians
have started in the business of frog-
raising during the last 10 years in the
endeavor to supply the growing mar-
ket. Ten years ago the Chenango
river, even within the limits of Bing-
hamton, was a favorite lurking place
for frogs. Noyes’s raceway, the small
pools in and around the island just
above the railroad bridges and the
upper reaches of the Chenango river
then were never silent during the
summer nights. The Susquehanna
river for miles in either direction also
harbored hosts of large frogs. But
today the familiar booming calls of
other years flannel lures and small
caliber rifle haave done their work.

Barbers in Early Days.
The origin of the custom of shaving
the face is lost in antiquity. The
Greeks and Romans had public shav-
ing places in connection with their
baths. In the fourteenth century the
barber's craft was recognized as a
profession, being allied to surgery.
The barbers were confined, as to sur-
gery to the letting of blood and
leeching, and extracting of teeth, but
the surgeons were prohibited from
shaving the face. The barber’s sign
was a striped pole as far back as 1650
the stripes arour{l the pole being
symbols of the bandages used in
wrapping the arm or part from which
the blood was to be let.—New York
Herald.
Leprosy Increasing.
Leprosy is increasing in both North
and South America. Columbia, where
there were only 400 lepers’ 40 years
ago, is said to have 40,000 now, and
many find their way into the United
States. Such a medical authority
as Dr. Ashmead, who’ was formerly
chief medical adviser to the Govern-
ment of Japan, says the increase is
alarming. When leprosy is brought
into a new country it takes 50 years
for the seeds to take root and it be-
comes epidemic after some 200 years.
It has been shown that mosquitos are
active in transferring leprosy bacilli.
Bricks of Sand and Lime.
The first factory for making bricks
of sand and lime was built in the
United States in 1901. Now about
140 plants are in operation in various
parts of the country, and their yearly
output is about 400,000,000 bricks. It
is a'striking illustration of the results
of scientific use of old and familiar
materials, is new combinations or
forms.
Race Track Trick.
Albert Corman, a London book-
maker, is charged with attempting to
obtain money by a trick from Harry
Cavanaugh, another bookmaker. He
handed Cavanaugh a paper with in-
structions to back certain horses for
forthcoming races, and by means of
chemical ink the original inscription
vanished and another appeared, back-
ing horses for races already won.
Practical Evidence of Ruin.
A few years ago Russia was annu-
ally exporting more than $200,000,000
worth of grain. Now she is import-
ing indication of the ruin which the
revolutionary disturbances have

worse. Her body was a mass of sores,
and her little face was being eaten away;
her ears looked as if they would drop off.
Neighbors advised me to get Cuticura Soap

of the cake of Soap and box of Ointment
the sores’ had all healed, and my little

Movements of Electricity.

Mrs. Chester Curr
A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of hysterics, is unfit to care
for children; it ruins a child's disposi-
tion and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak-
ness, and she is entirely unfit to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern-
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like a firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine-
tenths of the nervous prostration, ner-
vous despondency, ‘‘ the blues,” sleep-
lessness, and nervous irritability of
women arise from some derangement
of the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
like ering ?
Do you feel something like a bali ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive to light and sound ;
pain in the abdominal region, and
between the shoulders; pearing-down
pains; nervous dyspepsia and almost
continually cross and snappy ?
If so, your nerves are in a shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra-
tion than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound; thousands and thou-
sands of women can testify to this fact.

It is a peculiarity of Russian rail-

This is said to be on account of the
