Then in the printing and stationery section he was bound to say he was astonished. The paper had to be antique parchment, double thick cream wove, with 2,500 ivory visiting cards. All this went to substantiate the charge of wasteful and extravagant expendigure. Continuing, Mr, Robb said that the guardians had ordered the best Eng- lish beef to be supplied, together with best pork. mutton. and best beef suet. Later he found lace curtains, best white counterpanes, damask table lin- en. thirty-six dozen Irish cambric pocket handkerchiots. Visiting Cards, Too.

"PC-Ople are attracted to Poplar in order that they pay enjoy the comfort and luxuries in Poplar ‘Workhouse. which cannot be got in any other in- stitution." Mr. Crooks (for the guardians)â€" They don't. Mr. Robb went on to point out that one tender was for 2,700 pounds Of but- ter. 850 dozen best eggs, Cadburb’s best cocoa, best onions. best turnips.

Lea. and Per-1111's sauce. and Mazawattee tea. There was disquiet mused by the abnormal increase in pauperism in that district. both outdoor and indoor. Mr. Robb (continuing): “I maintain that the guardians are fostering pau- perism and making it unduly attrac- tive. Between 1885 and 1895 there was an increase at 1.153 indoor pauper-s. or 75 per cent., and an increase in cost of £16,171. or 80 per cent. From 1895 to 1906 there was an incmse of 1,024 in- .door paupers. or 36 per cent. and an increase in the cost of £32,594, or 86 per cent.

That paupers are more luxuriously housed than thousands of the middle class. that the ratepay'ers money is wasted on such items as £112 a year for newspapers for the workhouse: in short. that the guardians have fostered pauperism by making it too attractiveâ€" was alleged at the London Local Gov- ernment Board enquiry regarding the poordaw administration in Poplar.

A comparative anatomist says that the little toe has got to go; that it is a useless appendage, already showing signs of degeneration or withering away. It is proved that the horse, in the course of several centuries, has dropped four toes and now travels on one, and some think that man’s pedal extremities are bound to follow a sim- ilar line of. evolution. In the horse it is the middle digit which has survived as the fittest. In man it will be the first or great toe. Stains on Books. Ink stains may be removed from a book by applying with a camel’s hair pencil a small quantity of oxalic acid diluted with water and then using blot- ting paper. Two applications will re- move all traces of the ink. To remove grease spots lay powdered pipeclay each side of the spot and press with an iron as hot as the paper will bear Without scorching. Sometimes grease spots may be removed from paper or cloth by laying a piece of blotting pa- per on them and then pressing the blot- ting paper xi'ith a hot iron. The heat melts the grease, and the blotting pa- per absorbs it. A Forest of Giants. It is almost impossible for one who has seen only the eastern or Rocky mountain forests to imagine the woods of the Pacific coast. Pictures of the big trees are as common as postage stamps, but the most wonderful thing about the big trees is that they are scarcely bigger than the rest of the for- est. The Pacific coast bears only a tenth of our woodland, but nearly half of our timber. An average acre in the Rocky mountain forest yields one to two thousand board feet of lumber; in the southern forest, three to four thou- sand; in the northern forest, four ‘to six thousand. An average acre on the Pacific coast yields fifteen to twenty thousand. TGICSCOIK) the southern and {ocky mountain forests, toss the north- ern on top of them and stuff the cen- tral into the chinks. and, acre for acre, the Pacific forest will outweigh them all.
