Ey. "He offered to pay one hundred pounds ($600) for the English copy- right. But he changed the title (of the first edition) to 'Four Months Among the Natives of the Mar- quesas'. 'Typee' was not an outstand- ing success, but it had a fair sale for a first book, and seems to have puzzled the critics who, of course, had no suspicion that the author would even be regarded as a 'classic.' The following year -Murray pub- lished Melville's "Omooy" but that|- ended the association between them, 'and thereby Murray lost the honor of publishing = Melville's masterpiece, "Moby Dick". G The Break between John Murray and Herman Melville, Mr, Paston thinks, may be explained by a letter from 'the virtuous Sir Walter Farqu- har to the 'good' Lord Ashley, which was forwarded to Murray." "My dear Ashley," write Sir Wal- ter, "I am anxious that you should speak "to Mr. Murray on the subject of two volumes in the Home and Colonial Library, entitled 'T'ypee' and 'Omoo,' by Herman Melville. In the original prospectus of this series it is stated to be the publisher's intention to publish a number of useful and entertaining - volumes -- the utmost care being "at all times exercised in the selection of the works, so that "they shall contain nothing offensive to the morals or good- taste. "Now I do not hesitate in saying that while; in the :great majority of the volumes, Mr. Murray has re- deemed his pledge, he has entirely departed from it by allowing the pub- lication of 'Typee' and 'Omoo'. . . . They are not works that any. mother would like to see in the hands of her daughters; and: as such are not-suited to lie on the drawing-room table . .. 1 think it important to elicit from' "him. (Murray) some assurance that "there shall not appear in his series 'another volume "similar in character; for without such assurance I shall be reluctant]y compelled to cease sub- scribing to the series." In one of his letters to his daugh- ter, written:from Aberdeen, Scotland, at the time re received the degree of doctor of literature from Aberdeen University, Maarten Maartens; Dutch novelist wrote: "Professor R. told me of a man the ~ here who had received 'a telegram that he nwust break to his sister the news of her husband's quite sudden death. - He went straight to her house, burst in and said: 'Lizzie, I've got very. bad news for you about John. He's in Heaven! Here's another of the Professor's stories contained in the same letter-- taken from "The Letters of Maarten Maartens," edited by his daughter: "A friend of Mrs. Rs took three umbrellas to be covered, 'and went shopping. By accident she took a lady's umbrella in a shop, and the lady turned and said: 'Excuse me, that's my umbrella! . 'Oh, I beg your pardon!' Well and good. But, when she had fetched her three umbrellas, "she got into a street car, and there sat the lady. All the way the lady was watching her, and said nothing, but, getting out, she passed her, stopped and said distinctly: 'I see your afternoon has not been unprofit- able after alll' Awful!" When Maarten Maartens visited the United States in the Spring of 1907, his progress sas triumphant, (Does any one read him today, I won- der?) Ever 'a 'graceful 'and witty speaker, he was called upon to give an after-dinner speech in Brooklyn. | . 'Turning' to his hosts, he said: "Give me a subject, : gentlemen. " uYour Tittle queen," suggested 'some one. Aptly qioting a 'famous' answer to King Gharles II, he replied: "The Queen, gentlemen, is no subject." n !

Magools Heal During the World War an army doctor was nauseated when he saw fly-maggots crawling in the wounds of soldiers, - His nausea gave way to amazement when he found that these very wounds were cleaner and that they healed more rapidly than others which had been treated by the most approved methods. Now surgeons alt over the world use maggots to treat deep infections difficult to reach in ordinary surgical ways. In every country there are laboratories where sterile maggots are bred for hospitals. But why should maggots have this curing power? Allantoin is the an- swer given by Dr. William Robinson of the . Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine. It is a complex maggot as it works: its" way through' a wound. That: allantoin- has: healing properties has long. been known. Dr. C. J. Macalister used it successfully twenty-three years ago in curing ul- cers." And he, it seems, found that European peasants long treated their sores with roots of comfrey, which contains allantoin. Fine Detective Work Dr. Robinson's work-is-a-fine_ex- ample: of what can be done -by-de- two together: ~ He beganby reasoning that no 'organism deliberately sets out: to help anther man excepted. Chemical analysis showed that it con- tains allantoin.~ So 'Robinson was led to the conclusion that maggots may heal human wounds 'by excreting something which: contains alantoin. Tests in the laboratory proved that he was right.

Seeks Ail for Beet Industry Tax on Beet Sugar Amounts To More Than Labor Costs of Crop OTTAWA---Government assistance for the sugar beet industry was urg- ed: in the House of Commons recent- ly by John Blackmore (SC-Leth- bridge). He said the one-cent sugar tax 'was a severe handicap to the in- dustry which . was becoming an agricultural mainstay of the West- ern irrigated sections. The Social Credit leader quoted figures to show the government su- gar tax amounted to 54 per cent. of the "money received by Lethbridge farmers for their beets last year. It also represented 66 per cent. more than the labor costs of the crop. Alberta had 200,000 acres of land that could be used to grow sugar beets, Mr. Blackmore said. All the sugar supplies of the country could be grown in Canada. Mr. Blackmore suggested the one- cent tax be refunded to beet farmers who could split -it- with the beet laborers. Canada, he said, was the only country that did not bonus the industry. It would cost the treasury about $1,160,000 a year to refund the sugar tax to beet farmers, he said. Canada imported 84 per cent. of its sugar, said H. A. McKenzie (Lib. Lambton-Kent), who represents an- other beet area of Canada. This im- portation took place despite dumping duties. The duty paid on the imported sugar was $4,800.000 and the ' one- cent excise, $11,000,000. This was a total taxation of $15,800,000. Despite this, sugar was selling in Canada at the lowest prices in years. } Practically all cane sugar was sub- sidized, Mr. McKenzie said and pro- duced under labor conditions far be- low Canadian standards. The guest had become very im- meal. Finally he called to the waiter: "Look here! How long am I going to have to wait for the half-por tion of duck I ordered?" Waiter (smiling politely): "Till the Demoree plan, is an effective measure for extracted honey pro- duction but is not. normally satis- factory for comb honey. When queen cells appear all the brood | combs except the one_on which the queen is laying are removed to a super whichis later placed on top of the colony, The brood cham- iber is then filled with full sheets of foundation 6r drawn comb and two or three empty supers are placed above the queen excluder! between the brood chamber and .the super.of broad.on top, At the end of ten days the queen cells are destroyed on the removed brood in the top super.
