' Konigsberg, museum valued Prussia, has an amber at 305,000 marks. Venice has a eafe which has been opened day and night for 150 years. New Zealand has in its eidelweiss a plant differing but slightly from the famous Swiss variety. In 6 per cent. of the north Italian pnd 18 per cent. of the south Italian villages the streets are still used as sewers. According to the anthropologist, Alfredo Nicefore, a north Italian dif- fers less from a German than he does from a Sicilian. Distilling seems to be profitable in Russia. A Moscow firm, “Widow Popova,” has distributed $1,200,000 rubies as dividends for the year 1900 on a capital of 500,000 rubies. The street-car conductors in Wies- baden are subject to fines for breach of regulations. Tor driving too fast a fine of 30 pfennigs (6 cents); for talking to other employes, 50 pfennigs (11 cents) and for not waiting for trailer connection 20 pfennigs (4 cents. Notwithstanding these fines the Wiesbaden street-car service leaves much to be desired. Taxation in Norway is becoming op- pressive, and living expensive in pro- portion. An example will illustrate this: Two banks having the same capital and doing about the same amount of business pay taxes at the rate of 6,000 and 65,000 kroner ($1,440 and $15,740) per annum respectively. The former of these two institutions is in central Europe, the latter in Nor- way. HOT WEATHER SENSE. Walk slowly. Carry a sun umbrella if it adds to your comfort, Follow the shady side of the street where possible. Don’t eat heartily of meats—it is like putting coal in the furnace. Don’t hurry. There is more “heat- ing up” in three minutes of haste than in an hour of leisurely proceed- ing. Cut the acquaintance of the ther- mometer. Discourage talk about the weather, and if you must think.of it —think of Peary! In torrid weather wear clothing suitable to a torrid climate—as light and as little as the conventions and circumstanees will permit. I'ree perspiration seldom hurts any- one. The pores are nature's safety valves. It is “dry heat” or the sud- den checking of the sweat that is dangerous. Don’t drink “cool” alcoholic bever- ages under the idea that they will re- duce your temperature or that of the atmosphere. You are simply adding fuel to the fire. Paradoxical though it may sound, hot drinks are in the end often more cooling than cold drinks. KNOWN IN OTHER LANDS.
