One of the best and handiest for begimhers is Comstock's Life." Briefly, 'the process is as follows: Having killed your specimen by smothering it in a tightly covered box, containing a sponge or bit of cot~ ton saturated with ether, or benzine, or some similar agent, it is next lifted out by ot grasping the body, for if the wings are touched they are likely to suffer harm. The moth should then be laid on a strip of soft pine board, with & groove cut in Its surface deep enough to sliev the body of the insect to sink into it, so that the wings lie flat upon the board when spread. A strip of stiff paper (writing paper) should then be laid gently across the wings (lengthwise), and pinned firmly to the board at each end, holding the wings firmly down and smoothly until they have dried, which will occur in two or three days, according to the weather, etc. The spreading of the wings into proper shape may be made after the papers have been pinned, by ald of some slender instrument, like a knitting-needle. When thoroughly dried, | the papers may be lifted, and the in- sect transferred to the box or drawer in which it is to be kept, where it is held in its place by a pin thrust through the fore part of the body (thorax) into the sheet of cork on the bottom of the cab- inet drawer. A polsoning-bottie sould be one with a wide mouth and a firm, close stopper. It should hold 4 to 6 ounces. Put into this bottle a plece of cyanide of potas- sium as big as a large hickory-nut, and water enough to cover it; and then im- mediately, before there is time for the cyanide to dissolve, put in enough plas- ter of Paris to entirely soak up the water. In this way the cyanide will be firmly cemented in place in the bottom of the bottle, which should be left open to dry in a shady place for an hour or two, and then securely corked and labelled Poison. If not opened unne- cessarily, such a bottle will retain its strength for several months. Canada's Exhibit at Liege. Mr. Willam Hutchison, Canadian commissioner at the Liege Exposition, reports that the attendance at the Ca- nadian Pavilion still continues very large, it being not unusual to receive the visits of 40,000 or 50,000 daily. The exhibition authorities have a tramway on the grounds running in front and close to the Canadian building. They had first located their station at a dis- tance of one hundred and fifty feet from it; however, the inquiries about the Canadlan exhibit were so numerous and cohtinuous that they soon changed the stop to the front of the Canadian Pavilion, Among the recent visitors of distinc- tion were Lord Lyvden, Sir Howard Jones and a number of aldermen and county councilors from England, known as the municipal committee. Sir How- ard Jones expressed his particular ap- preciation of the mineral exhibit in the following language: "I am surprised at this fine exhibit taken as a whole, but' the mineral exhibit is something very superior. I never expected to see anything like it. This should be taken to London where it would give the peo. ple of England some idea of your coun- try's greatness" This mineral exhibit has attracted a number of professors of geology from the surrounding cities. One from Ber- lin, when signing the register, wrote the following remark: "The most in- teresting and most instructive exirbit J is the mineral exhibit of Canada." ---------------------------- The Law of the Revolver. A singular. point in the law as to carrying revolvers was brought to light in a case at Police Court recently, says The Toronto Globe. Adolphia Mele pleaded guilty to drunkenness and also to a charge of carrying a revolver, Col. Denison sald he would fine the man $1 and costs or 10 days for the drunken- ness and $5 and costs for the other of- fence. "I think under the statute it is $20 and costs for carrying the revolver," Interrupted Crown Attorney Curry. "Well, I will make it $20 and costs or days, anyway," sald His Worship. Having looked up the law on the point, Mr. Curry said: "Five dollars and costs is where a constable suspects a man of carrying a weapon and searches him and finds it on him. I don't know what would happen If the officer did not find the revolver on him." It appeared that where a man is arrested on anoth- er charge and a revolver is found In his Possession, the minimum fine is $20. -------- ete _ Dandurand's Dream.

Many Species Extinct and Others Are Threatened. New York Mail or the shore hunter how the sea birds may be exterminated, and no ome bet ter than the Indian or trapper of the deep woods how sometimes the wildest and most abundant land species may disappear. The wonderful great auk, or garefowl, has, within the memory of men now living, been hunted from the face of the earth so that its skins and eggs are now worth their weight in gold. «Practically the beau- tiful wild pigeon, which once darkened the skies with its vast and cloudlike flight, has met the same fate, though small colonies of it in remote spots undoubtedly still exist, The eastern pinnated grouse is also practicaly ex- tinct. In the Chatham Islands alone, in the Pacific, seventeen species of birds have become extinct. On all the islands of the sea' and all the shore spots to which sea birds resort the work of slaughter is being carried on quite relentlessly, Largely for purely humane reasons and inci- dentally in the interest of science the National Association of Audubon so- cieties is engaged in the work , of trying to save the sea birds from ex- termination. Several species are being systematically destroyed for their fea- thers, Fashion, of course, does not care whether these beautiful creatures are exterminated or not. The scarcer they become up to the por! of their actual disappearance the g.cater are the prices realized for ihe feather: and the deeper the joy taken by the wear- er of the omament. And when at last they are all gone--why there will Le another of God's creatures to put through the same process. This association has forty wardens guarding some of the key colonies of these sea birds. This may guarantee them from total destruction at pres- ent, but does not insure the mainten- ance of the birds of the species in question in such numbers as to repder their preservation sure.
