For many years the government at Washington has, through the bureau of agriculture, been investigating the na ture of sand grasses. It has learned what other countries have accomplish ed with them. It has brought speci mens from all lands and gathered them by the hundreds, representing every known variety growing wild in this country. It has studied their nature and habits, experimented with them un der all possible conditions, and finally it has made a number of trial plantings in the sandy regions along the shores of Massachusetts, California and Flor ida. Other nations with greater deserts of sand in their territory than those of this country are watching the progress of these experiments. If they prove successful we may expect to sec a grad ual disappearance of such places in Eu rope which have for centuries stood as almost insurmountable barriers to the progress of civilization.—Pearson's Magazine.

In the ancient alluvions of the Col- J orado river at. Yuma, Arizona, then 4 i were recently excavated the upper • jaw and teeth of a mammoth, presum ably the Elcphas Americanus. Frag- ! ments of teeth on the lower jaw and tusks were also found, and such ror tions of the specimens as were pre- j served intact were sent to the muse um of the University of Arizona at ; Tucson. This discovery, of course, in- | dicates that the mammoth once was I extant in Arizona, and that this re- I gion which is now extremely dry and ; arid, must have enjoyed at one time considerable moisture, which afforded : a rich vegetation. A simple mechanical idea is revolu- ! tionizing the raisin trade of the world | and opening foreign markets to the | California product. This machine is j the raisin seeder. The principle *s a combination of rubber rollers which i force the seeds against a set of steel claws. The latter cut the skin and remove the seeds, and the seed 4 are then taken off the saws by a set of ! steel combs. The machine does its • work with an intelligence almo-t hu man. There is no waste, and ■he • seeded raisins come out of the ma- ! chine with a hardly disce ; nible punc- j ture in the skin. OILS FROM THE WHALE.

What Buffering- frequently rcsulta frc*n a mother's ignorance ; or more frequently from a mother's neglect to properly instruct her daughter I Tradition says "woman must suf fer," and young women are so taught. There is a little truth and a great deal of exaggeration in this. If a young woman suffers severely she needs treatment, and her mother should see | that she gets it. Muny mothers hesitate to take their ; daughters to a physiciau for examina tion ; but no mother need hesitate to write freely about her daughter or herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure the most efficient advice without charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn, Mass. Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South Byron, Wis., mother of the young lady whose portrait we here publish, wrote Mrs. Pinlcham in January, 1809, saying her daughter had suffered for two years with irregular menstruation had headache all the time, and pain in her side, feet swell, and was generally miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly ; replied with advice, and under date of March, 1899, the mother writes again ! that Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable ; Compound cured her daughter of all ! pains and irregularity. ! Nothing in the.world equals Mrs. Pinkliam's great medicine for regu lating woman's peculiar monthly troubles. ! In June, 1900, the largest number of j marriages licenses on record for any month in Chicago were issued—2,lso.
