In the appearance of salt, as seen in everyday use on the table, in the kit- c‘tien. and elsewhere, there is apparent- ly nothing particularly historic, but in reality there is. In 1520 B. (1. Moses its-tied: “Can anything which is unsav- ory be eaten without salt?" The Jews in ancient. times were com- manded to use salt in their sacrifices. Herodotus. born 4% B. (3., notes that the Egyptians preserved meat. fish, and fowl by steeping them in brine. The lfcbrews invariably rubl’ied new- born babies with a solution of salt. to harden the skin. make it. healthy, and prevent. .skin diseases. \\"herever salt is spoken of in ancient writings it is in most emphatic langu- age, showing the great. importance _it possessed for our forefathers.

Probably no household remedy in ex- istence has won such. glowing tributes from people in high places as has Zamâ€" ,Buk. Mr. Roger F. Perry, Justice of .the Peace for British Columbia, recent- ly tested this famous balm, and this is what he says of it: “The Pavilion, “Goldfields, B.C.

It closes and heals cuts, festering sores, ulcers, eruptions, iboils, eczema, chafing sores, etc. In the household it is the handiest possible remedy for burns, scalds. children’s in- juries.

CEDAR FOR LEAD PENCILS. Now Bought by the Pound, and Grow- ing Scarcer Every Y ‘ar. The lead pencil is one of the most, common articles in everyday use, and nearly 320,000,000 pencils are manufac- tured in the United States every year. To manufacture these millions of pen- cils there are required 110,000 tons, or 7,300,000 cubic feet, of wood, so that each day of the year 300 tons, or 20,000 cubic feet of wood, are used‘ for pencils. Since. practically all of the wood is red cedar. and since the pencil industry is steadily growing. the supply of red ee- dar is greatly depleted; yet no substi- tute has been found for it. Leaving out of consideration the imported pencils. says the Boston 'l‘rauscript, the average educated American over ten years (f age uses six pencils of home manufac- ture each year. Ten years ago he used less than five. Red cedar has a soft, straight, grain, and when grown under the best, condi- tions is very-free from defects. Because tot its peculiar qualities no equally good ‘substitute for it. has ever been found, and it is doubtful if any other wood using industry is so dependent. upon a single species as the pencil industry dependent upon red cedar. In fact, red radar suitable for pencil manufacture is the only wood the price of which is al- ways quoted by the pound. Strange as it may seem, no steps have heretofore been taken to provide for a future supply of red cedar. This has been largely due to the lack of inforina- tion on the rate of growth and the ba- bits of the tree, and to the widespread belief that second growth red cedar never reaches merctiantable size. in accordance, with its policy toward the conservation and ecituimnic use of commercial \voods. the GOYt‘l'lllllCnl For- est Service has made a careful study of red cedar. and has come. to the conclu- sion that it can profitably be grown in mg regions of its development. Several changes are r-ecoiamended in present .forest management in order to secure, ‘1]le (toured growth. In the Southern :forests the cedar will have to be given 9 better chance instead of being con- sidered. as now. a negligible quantity in its younger stages. and many of the forest grown trees which are now cut fer fence posts can profitably be left to .attain their full development. and thus become available for pencil wood. is A woman is apt to frown when her husband “smiles” too often. “That's the real Woman‘s Questimi,” observed the chap when his wife asked him if her hat was on straight.

The Dowager Empress of Russia, in asking that. during her visit to England the speed of the train by which she tra- velled might. be moderated, was but- fol- lowing the example of other royalties. Queen Alexandra, who was with her, has enjoyed one or two railway runs at record speed, says the London Evening Standard, but t‘avelling for the illus- trious is differently ordered in Russia, where undermined and bomb-strewn tracks have before now been passed over by the Empress. It took years to persuade Queen Vic- toria. to travel by rail. and the Prince Consort. who gave her a lead, would step up to the driver of his train at. the. end of a journey and say : “Not so fast next. time, if you please.” It was regarded as a great triumph for the railways when the Queen (lid at last overcome her fears and patronize the new method of locomotion. That, how- Mrs. Startuppo: “Ah, professor. And how is my daughter getting on with her music? Do you think she will ever be- come a great singer?” Professor: “Madam, it. is very hard to say.” Mrs. Startuppe: “But surely she possesses some of the qualifications?” Professor: “Achl Yes, madam; she has a mouth.” THE STRENUOUS LIFE.

He went by coach. If prejudice against. rapid travel has lingered in some royal minds, it. cannot be said that the inclination of those by whom royalty has been advised has much outrun them. Wellington hung back even when the Prince Consort. and Queen Victoria had ventured. Probably he never would have travelled by rail had he not. been called upon to take train with the Queen to Southampton. Having made the plunge, he was comâ€" pletely converted, for soon afterward the papers contained the announcement that he had actually passed to and from Folkestone in one day by the Dov-er line. He bore his trial with more fortitude than Lady l-Iolland. When she at. last- consented to try the awful experiment, she insisted that Brunet should sit with her and hold her hand during the whole of the journey.
