He spends about as much as that every year in k up his wonderful zoological keeping and masestn, He has Htted out expeditions to go hunting in the tropics for rare animals, paying high prices where necessary to obtain them | and buying out whole collections Somat) imes just to obiain one xy ordinary specimen. His younger bro- ther Charles, whose hobby is the col- lection of fleas, once commissioned some Arctic whalers to obtain for him specimens of the fleas of Arctic ani- mals, and there was a story that Charles had offered a prize of $5,000 for a single example of the flea of the Arctic fox. This was denied, but it was not denied that he had made special inducements to the Arctio fishermen to find for him specimens of insects from the polar regions. Charles Rothschild has manifested - st devotion to his singular hob- by. He says that every mammal and bird has a particular kind of flea and that some of them have several kinds, 80 that the flea affords more diverse material for a collector than any liv. ing creature. He has fleas from oy corner of the world, over 10,000 dif- ferent varieties. It affords him as grea: delight to secure a new kind of as it does J. Pierpont Morgan to obtain a rare specimen of the work of an old master, Imperishable Paper. In the publication of the work on extinct birds care has been tak- en to render it 8d far, as possible im- perishable. The mi xpensive paper is used, and the blo: e color plates cost over a thousand hounds, 'Among the birds now extinct, or prac- tically so, of which the book has il- lustrations are 'the great auk, the whale-headed stork, the King Albert's bird of parddise from New Guinea, She Labrador duck and Manteil's iwi, The Hon. Lionel alter Rothachild, though 38 years of age and thoug occupied: with business cares and his duties as a member of Parliament, has attained reputation as a scientist, The study of animals and insects and their collection are with him no mere hobby, and he has written several works on natural history which have heen accepted as authorities in their field. Zabras In London, He was one of the first Englishmen to employ the zebra for driving and farm purposes. He startled the staid British public a few years ago b driving zebras four abreast roug the streets of London. His collee- tions embrace a wide variety of speci- mens belonging to the animal king- dom, living and dead, but perhaps he takes the greatest interest in birds. Among stuffed specimens of the lat- fer in"his museum at Tring Park is an example of the great auk, with two , bird and eggs together be- ing a at about $1,700. Another rare and extinct bird in the museum is the grotesque whale-headed stork from the White Nile, 3 Ashes For Horses. Keep a pan for fresh ashes in the stable all the time.

They are made by bringing the iron and steel of the radiating chamber to a white heat and fusing the metals into one piece--making a joint 'so permanent and so tight, that it prevents for all time the escape of smoke, gas and dust into the house. 'Heela Furnace joints are just as tight, after ten years service, as when first installed. «HECLA" FUSED JOINTS are covered by patents and are used exclusively in " Hecla" Furnaces. The cemented and bolted joints in other furnaces are soon impaired by the unequal expansion of the steel and iron. The cement drops out; the bolts work loose; soon leaving openings through which gas and dust escape. FUSED JOINTS make "Hecla" heating ample, economical, sanitary and healthful.
