What Nataro llnea For lltir Traea. The wild forest trues ienr a great abundance of foliage, and this show that nature provides fur her own in a most bountiful maimer. The inferiority of the foliage of the mountain trees and those growing near lakea and rivers ia due to the rich substance contained in decayed leaves and water forming a chemical action with the solar rays. Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbonic acid and the gaseous substances in na ture are sniUcient to complete the annual growth of forest trees of all classes. Along the broad reaches of the north ern ami sotithurn rivors this fact is clear ly seen and well defined. The rich nav igable lowland rivers, such as the Thuruea in toiglaud and the Loire in France, dis play the richest and most luxuriant trees. Boston Transcript. Sean In a Dream.

He tried to laugh her cut of her fears, but when he found thai Ihe would go if he did not, he got into his buggy and started. He bad gone but a short distance when he met a messen ger from the school coming to tell him that late on the evening before Mary bad fallen from a tree and broken her arm.

It is generally stated and believed that tho sultan nf Morocco, like the cxar, is at once the temporal and the spiritual head of his people, but this is not quite true. Though one of his many titles is that of "guardian and commander of the trno believers," this authority ii very shndowy at least as far as the Kairouin is concerm d and thosnltan had an opportunity of judging some throe years ago of the danger that might re sult from his interference In purely church government. For some reason nr other ho commanded that the mokad duin, or chief trustee of the university an ofllco which has been hereditary in one fimiil" since the death of the Tn nisiati Katina lie dismissed. This was done, but within three days there arose such an mtcry and hubbub at tho sultan's attempt to exercise un wonted authority in church matters that he very wisely bethought him to an nounce that in a dream tho apparitioa of his sainted father had appeared to hitn and requested him to reinstate the mokaddum. The mokaddnm was mis stated, and the sultan has never inter fered again in the affairs of the univer sity. Fortnightly Review. Bara Jawala.

The Women's Educational and Industrial nnion hns just added to its numerous departments for women's work the well equipped hand laundry, located in LongwiKsl, which has been ably managed during 10 years past by a number of well known ladies in Urooklirie. Tho Women's union, in its office of public educator, has un dertaken this now venture with a desire to solve the problem of organizing laun dry work in tho manner most profitable to womankind in general with just re muneration to those who labor therein, reasonable charges to thn customer, and fair profit to the institution which as sumes tho management. The work is done under the most fa vorable and healthful conditions, in country air, with a copious supply of puro, soft water, in well ventilated rooms devoted solely to tho use nf tho laundry and by carefully trained and skilled workwomen, thus obviating tho princ1 pal objections housewives have enter tained against sending this work out nf their own households.

The outfit had reached the top of a long hill out near Woodstock, and as there were no shafts to the sled it ran np against the horse's heels. He reared up, and slipping fell over back ward on the sled. The driver saw him ! coming and got out of the way. The stakes at the sides of thn sled held the horse on, and away he went scooting down the hill, till finally the sled brought np on the railroad track. The stakes were removed, and the horso walked out nninjured. Ho was turned about and hauled the sled and his master up the hill, which suited him better than tho riding down on his back. The Right of the horse going down the incline with his legs waving in the air was very com ' ical. Portland Jregunian. Klopfiaeat Mail F.aijr.

Iqjurtea from Carbollo Acid. Warnings are given in a German medical journal against the injury to ikin, and even bone, which may result from the long continued use of weak say 8, 24, n ven 3 per cent. carbo lized applications, especially upon periph eral portions of the body, such as the fingers. This effect, it is asserted, is due In a small measure to the action of car bolic acid upon the vasomotor system, but in the main to its destructive effect opon the red and white blood corpuscles. This induces, partly in a mechanical and partly ia a chemical way, stasia, first in the capillaries, and, if the actio, of the drag be continued, then in the larger reins and arteries, with the result that the nutrition of the part is inter fered with, and the removal of harmful nbstances hindered, the maceration of the epidermis caused by the acid favors evaporation, so that the gangrene ia a iry one, a mummification, as it were.

Tlm election held In Lot kiuut In tho spring nf IH03 was very favorably re ported on by those who watched it, and the like elect ions this year will be closely studied.

These models are mmln of gelatin, of life size from living mod els, and painted so accurately that the oldest angler would lie deceived. A vet eran fisherman, who saw thn models last evening, could hardly believo that the skins of the fish had not been put on over tho gelatin forms. The most sinking model is that of a 9 pound square tailed spotted brook trout. It is a beauty. Thn other fish represented are a large pickerel, a fine ynllow perch, a white perch and a men haden. Tliis is of conrse only a small fraction of what tho Maine fish exhibit will tie, bnt it shows that it will tie one of thn most attractive portions of our display. Portland (Mo.) Press.

It is reported to be8 inches long nnd 0 wide, and its resemblance to a human head pronounced reuuirkabla It has, it is stated, clearly defined eyes. cheeks, muscles and traces of vertebra at the back of tho neck. Professor Starr of tho Chicago university, while admit ting the remarkable resemblance, de cided that it was not a man's head, but was simply the result of natnro's opera tions on soft stone. Other scientific men. however, it is said, differ from thin con clusion and bcliove it to be a human potrifsction. Cor. Chicago Tribune. f'.lparlenenaof a Watch.

New York Sun. f ntrmarrlnize In Knrmdii. There is no remote chance of Eurasia ever lieing reabsorlied by either of its original elements; tho prejudices of both Lnropeani and natives aro far too vigor ous to permit of much intermarriage with a people who are neither one nor thu other. Occasionally an np country planter, predestined to a remote and "jungly" existence, coml-s down to Calcutta and draws his bride from the upper circles of Eurasia this not so often now as formerly. Occasionally, too, a yonng shopman with the red of Scotland fresh in his cheeks is carried off by his landlady's daughter, while) Tommy Atkins falls a comparatively easy prey. The sight of a native with a half caste wifo is mnch rarer, for there Eurasian as well as native sntipathy comes Into operation. The whole conscious in clination of Eurasian life, in habita, taste, religion and mint of all in ambi tion, is toward the European and away from the native standards. Kara J.
