Prindpal in life Shearing Proceu Not Used In Shot- land on Pure Bred Animal; The pure bred sheep in Shetland are not shom, butplucked, The process takes place generally in June, when the fleece is “ripe” and the silky wool can be pulled off Without pain. This is called “roping” and is much less damaging to the young fiber than clipping with shears; The wool when thus handled retains its peculiar soft- ness, so that any one of experience can tell whether the material of a knitted article has been plucked“ or shorn. It ripens first upon the neck and shoul- ders, so that sheep half pulled resemble in some sort a poodle that is clipped. We “ must suppose that harsher han- dling prevailed at one time, for we read that in 1616 the Scottish privy council spoke of the custom as still kept up “in some remote and uncivil places," and James I. wrote to tell them that it had been put down in Ireland under penal. ty of a fine. Upon this they passed an act on March 17, 1616. depicting the destruction of sheep thus caused and imposing similar fines on those who should persist in the practice. The Tropic Home. White men’s homes in India, the West Indies, west Africa and other parts of the tropics to which civiliza- tion has penetrated are usually run on the principle of having as much air and as little furniture as possible? Carpets, rugs, cushions, hangings and i portieres are banished. Tables and chairs are made of light Wickerwork, bamboo or cane. The floors are pol- ished with cocoanut hushs until ”they", become as slippery as a good dancing E floor. Indeed, they are used for that ‘ purpose nearly every evening in any 1 settlement where there is society. A. \ 1 ball in the tropits requires no prepara- . tion. After dinner it is only necessary , to move the light furniture to one cor- net of the spacious room, send some- ; body to the piano and start dancing. ' The ballroom is practically in the l open air, for wooden “jalousies” form ! most of the wall space and are opened 1 like Venetian blinds to let in the cool 1 night breezes. Few people perhaps notice that all l omnibus wheels are painted yellow. 1 says the London Chronicle. so that any ‘ wheel may be worn with any bus color. Every circus ring in the world is of precisely the same diameter. whatever the size of the auditorium, so that the rider knows the angle at which he must lean in San Francisco is the an- gle of safety in St. Petersburg. Even the ladder is “standardized." Every hodm‘an in England knows what he has to step when toiling up the build- er's ladder. though he may not know it is seven inches. The sailor who runs up the ratlines has twelve inches as a step. and that makes a run possible. and the firemen’s ladder is crossed with exact equivalence to the ratlines. Death From Electric Shock. The ultimate cause of death, when due primarily to electric shock, is gen- erally considered to be stoppage of the action of the heart or of the respir- atory organs. That the latter may be affected is shown by the fact that vicâ€" tims of electric shock are sometimes brought to by practice of some of the well known methods of artificial res- piration. The cessation of the heart’s action may be due to stimulation of the nerves which control the beating of the heart. These. when stimulated to ex- cess, may cause the heart to stop alto- gether.â€"Archibald Wilson in Cassier’s Magazine. The Consulting Cuddle. There is one personage who of late years has rather disappeared from the golfing world, but used to be greatly in evidence in itâ€"the advisory «caddie. Many of the caddies of the old Scotch school used to treat their masters (so called) much in the manner that a good old nurse treats a baby when she is be- ginning to teach it how to walk. In those days there was not a stroke played without the most careful con- sultation with these sapient mentors.â€" Westminster Gazette. Placing the Blame.

Although" fl” collection of accurate statistics is ‘ comparatively recent departure. it is strident that this record shows a marked; increase during the last few years. That the future will bring equally rapid increases may fairly be predicted, for the growth of manuâ€" facturing industries is assured. and Women desiring employment show I» ‘ preference for the factories.

'1 Factories are generally cheap. and l. there is but very little overcrowding. lthe only complaint that is at all l fitment being in regard to ventila- ltion. One of the changes that has Igroatly improved industrial condi- tions is the substitution of electric ‘llghting for gas. The gas flame i helps to vitiate the air of a factory l or other building. and at the same l. time tends to increase the tempera? g ture. The change has-made working 1 conditions more comfortable in many i factories. although that result was i not directly contemplated. Employ- i ers, however. are generally willing to i .do everything necessary to insure q i the safety and comfort at cmployes. : 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ; In dealing with the movement for a g Saturday half-holiday.
