01111 WAYS OF THE BEAVER Interesting Infohnntion About This Busy Little Thc current number 0! Rod and Gun in Canada has an article on the habits o! the beaver in which the writer, Frank H. Bisteen. tells some interesting things about that most interesting 0! North American ani- mals. m the cutting power 0! the Denver's teeth the writer says:â€" HOW HE MANAGES TO STAY UNDER WATER IN WINTER. “The beaver is really a sort of portable pulp mill, grinding up most any kind of wood that comes his way. I once measured a white birch tree. twentyâ€"two inches through. cut down by a beaver. A single beaver. generally. if nbt always, amputates the tree. and when it comes down the whole lunxily lall to and have a re- gular {relic with the bark and branches. A big beaver will bring down a fair-sized sapling. say three inches through. in about two minutes and a large tree in about an hour. "The ability 0! a beaver to remain under water {or a. long time is really not so tough a. problem as it looks. When the nine or pond is lrozen over a beaver will come up to the under surlncc o! the ire and expel his breath to that it will form at wide. flat bub- ble. The air coming in Contact with the ice and Water is purified. and the Denver breathes it In again. The ot« ter and nmskrat do the same thing. “One of the queereet facts about the beaver is the rapidity with which his long. chisel-shaped teeth will re- cover Irom an injury. I have known beavers to break their teeth in hit- ing a trap, and when I caught them again ten days atterward you could- n't see a sign of the break-the teeth had grown out to their lormer per- !ection in that short period." Mr. Ristecn’s experiences have not given him a very high opinion of the bt-nvcr's swimming powers. Ho wriu-s: "When the ice is thin and clear I have often seen the muskrat attached to his bubble. and by pounding on the ice have driven him away tron) it. when he would drown in a very short time. I believe that the beaver as well as the loan. sometimes em- ploys this pneumatic suction princi- pie by breathing into the mud on the bottom. and thus remaining under water for a remarkable length of “luv." That it is difficult to hold most of the shyvr lur animals in captivity is known to those who have made the exlwrinmnt. but the beaver evidently takes the lead in this respect in Mr. Risieen's estimation. as the lollowâ€" ing will show: ()i the ability 0! the beaver and tome other wild animals and birds to remain a long time under water this writer says: "It almost takes a burglar-proof sale to hold a newly captured beaver. I once caught an old one and two kittens up the north branch of the Sou-West. put them in a barrel and brought them down to Miramichi Lake. That night she gnawed a hole through the barrel and cleared out. LEAVING IIER KITTENS. They were so young that I had no Way of leeding them. so released them in the hope that. the mother might find them. Soon after that I caught a big male beaver. I made a large log pen for him 0! dry spruce. but the second night he cut a log out. and disappeared. “As compared with the otter or mink the beaver is A VERY SLOW swimmm. "is trout legs hang by his sides. and he uses only his webbed hind fleet for purposes of swimming. It is easy to capture one in a canoe i! you can find him in shoal water. He is a most determined fighter, but clum- sy and easy to handle. it he could get hold 0! you with his teeth he would almost take a leg oflâ€"so you want to catch him sharp. The place to grab him is by the tail." Mrs. IIauskecpâ€"Goodness ! This meat. is absolutely raw. This new cook is wretched ; she never cooks anything hall cnqugh: ilr. H'anskcepâ€"Don’t blame her.

"Beavers, when alarmed generally Make up stream. so I went up the brook to where a little branch came In 1nd I thought I would go up that a little way. and I hadn’t gone more than ten rods before I came across my lad sitting up in the bed of the brook having a lunch on a stick he had cut. He actually looked as it he knew he was playing truant when he caught sight of me out o! the side of his eye.

"I picked him up by the tail, brought him back. and put him in the pen. supplied him with plenty of fresh poplar. and he seemed as tame as possible and never gave me any more trouble. I brought him out to Stanley where he lived for a long time. Turnbull had a thoroughbred mongrel dog which was jealous of the beaver. and one day attacked him.

Suddenly there was a grind- ing crash, and one of the immense twenty-ton iron beams of the venti- lating shalt collapsed. and fell into the depths below.

()nt.. is one of the many who have tested and proved the value of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. For many months she was a great sufferer from what is commonly termed “a run down sys- tem." To a reporter of the Advoâ€" cate she gave the following story in the hope that other sufferers might benefit from her experiencetâ€"“For many months my health was in a bad state. my constitution being greatly run down. I was troubled with continual headaches, my appe- tite was poor and the least exertion greatly fatigued me. I consulted a physician but his treatment did not appear to benefit me and I gradually‘ became worse. so that I could hardly attend to my household duties. I then tried several advertised reme- dies but without result. and I began to regard my condition as hopeless. A neighbor called to see me one day and urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Having tried so many medicines without receiving benefit. I was not easily persuaded. but finally I consented to give the pills a trial. To my surprise and great joy I noticed an improvement in my condi- tion before I had finished the first box and by the time I had taken {our boxes of the pills I was fully re- stored to health. I no longer suffer from those severe headaches. my ap- petite is good. I can go about my household duties without the least trouble: in fact I feel like a new wo- man. All this I owe to that best 01 all medicines. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. and I would strongly urge oth- er suflerers to give them a trial." “A run down system!" What a world of misery those few words im- ply. and yet there are thousands throughout this country who are suf- fering from this condition. Their blood is poor and watery; they suf- fer almost continuously from head- aches; are unable to obtain restful sleep and the least exertion greatly fatigues them. What is needed to put the system right is a tonic. and experience has proved Dr. \Villiums' Pink Pills to be the only never-fail- ing tonic and health restorer. VOIV IIIIIIIII A few weeks ago the scene of this awful disaster was at last. pumped dry. and the first miners who had entered it for Iorty years descended. There at the bottom lay a tub of coals still full to .the brim. as it had been loaded on that fatal day, and [erfect in every particular. except that the water in which it had stood so long had rusted its iron hoops. 'l‘hey reached it and found it was a handsome gold bracelet, set with stones. still clasped around the wrist of a woman's skeleton. The bones Were wedged tightly in a cleft of the rock. where no living creature could have passed. They brought the jew- el down. and inquiry proved that the relic dated from the awful earthquake of March, 1860, when a great tidal wave dashed over the land and SWUPt seven thousand lives away in less than seventy seconds! The wav- es had caught the wearer of that bracelet from either beach or boat. and left. her there, forgotten. in a niche of the rocks till the boys found her bones, nearly half a century later. The annihilation of Ccrv'scra fleet by the Axnciicans, of! Santiago, is still fresh in the memory. But the wrecks have been cleared away by salvagemen, or waves, and the scene Nature. or man, or both, seen wipe away. or cover up, the ugly remnants left by fires, floods or exâ€" plosions; but. now and then a little relic comes to light. which brings puwerlully to This Condition Causes More Gen- uine Suffering Than One Can Imagineâ€"How a Well Known Exeter Lady Obtained a Cure After She Had Begun to Reâ€" lgard Her Condition as Hope- ess.

A London jeweller possess- es :1 little relic which brings vividly to mind the horrors of the scene. It is a blackened lump of metal. which close examination shows to be com- posed of silver Spanish dollars. It was found on the body of a. sailor of thé battle, with blazing ships and drowning men on the warship "Maria Theresa." and is an eloquent testimony to the thoroughness with which the Ameri- can shells did their Work. One of the most charming curios belongs to a nephew of Sir Richard Temple. It is a. ring, which, when! you touch a hidden spring. and place it near your ear, plays a tiny, tink- ling tune. It is only lately that. this ring has been made play again; For years it was out of order, and. when at last its: works were examin-I ed, they were found to be choked- with a clot of blood. I Like all the others who did so. he paid the penalty. After long weeks in a gloomy dungeon, he was led out to die. with many others of the world’s finest aristocracy. Just be- fore his turn came, he held the ring to his ear. and for the last time he heard it tinkle out its cheery little tune. Then he laid his head upon the guillotine. and his life-blood stained the block on which a. few hours before a queen had died. A curio, which at first. sight. has nothing striking about. it, lies upon the sitting-room chimney-piece in a Wolverhampton house. Its owner, Mr. Albert, Matthews. an old sail- or. is a living example of how near a man can have come to death with- out dying. In 1874 he was mate of the pearl- ing schooner “Fly," when she was wrecked on one of the Solomon Is- lands. lie and the others, seven in all. got ashore in safety, only to find themselves in the hands of the cruellest tribe of cannibals in the world. They realized this when. af- ter a week of imprisonment on good food. they were taken out to form. themselves, the principal dish in a prolonged series of festivities. One by one they were knocked down with a stone war-club! The ring is a relic of a. tragedy more than a century old. Made nearly two hundred years ago in Genoa. this quaint bit of jewellery came into possessinn of an ancestor of its present owner, who lived in France at the time of the Revolu- tion. Detesting the wild work of the Matthews was left to the last. a’ stunned spectator of the horrible! fate of his comrades. At last his. turn came.

ACTUALLY RAISING HIS CLUB Mr. Rhodes, possesses among his treasures a unique memorial of this disaster. It consists of a pair of earrings. taken from the ears of the Chief Makoni leader, under Lo Ben- gula, of the great Matabele revolt. By a remarkable coincidence. this re- lic is one which surviveth a second disaster. It is one of the very few which were saved from the burning of Mr. Rhodes's beautiful house. Groot Schuur!

I The stables at Buckingham Palace. lwhich lie barely screened from the !beautiful gardens, are a small palace iin themselves. forming with the .coaclx-houses stately rows of build- iings. arranged in the form of a. Elarge quadrangle, approached from [Buckingham Palace Road by an im- ‘g posing gateway. KING EDWARD’S STABLES. Some of the Most Valuable and Beautiful Horses in Europe. It, is only fitting that the horses of a King should be lodged in an equine palace and should lead lives of dignity and luxury worthy of their high statioht That ”all the’ King’s horses" have comparatively speaking, as good a time of it as "all the King's men" cannot be doubted by anyone who has seen the royal stables at Buck- ingham Palace and Windsor and has seen the conditions under which they live. The side of the quadrangle oppo- site to the entrance-gate is the home of the beautiful cream and black horses familiar to the specta- tor of Royal State processions. Here, in spotlessly clean, perfectly appointed stables, with stately col- umns and vaulted roofs. are stabled some of the most valuable. and beautiful horses in Europe. Seen apart from their rich trap- pings, the cream horses. with their uncommon “complexion," almost colorless eyes and pink noses, look- ing like equine Albinos, lose someâ€" thing of their stateliness and pic- turesqueness. They are, however, magnificent animals, perfect in form and breeding,’ and standing on an average nearly SIXTEEN HA NDS HIGH. The creams, like the blacks. are of Continental extraction. although for many years both have been bred at Hampton Court. They live long. reaching an average age of over twenty years ; and curiously enough nearly all of them bear royal names, such as Emperor and Monarch, So- vereign and King George. names pe- culiarly appropriate to their high rank and duties. The blacks, which are of Dutch origin. are still larger and finer. many of them being between seven- teen and eighteen hands high. The‘Palace Road side of the quad- rangle is devoted to the carriage- horses, about thirty in number. nearly all magnificent bays averagâ€" ing about seventeen hands, and all equal to fourteen miles in the hour in double harness. Five hundred guineas a pair may be set down as the average value of these splendid animals. The utmost care is taken in trainâ€" ing these horses. which are warrant- ed to maintain their equanimity under any disturb ng conditions. In the coach-houses on the east side of the quadrangle are to be seen some of the 'most costly and magnificent carriages in Europe, in- cluding the gorgeous Stateâ€"coach which, after forty years of disuse, was seen at the opening of Parlia- ment some months ago by King Ed- ward VII. It is interesting to note that this “glass coach” is eight yards long. 12 feet in height, and weighs no less than The carving on it cost over $7,500, the gilding nearly $5,000, and the cogch-mpker's bill was $8,365. But this truly regal. it not very comfortable. coach is only one among many State carriages of more‘subdued splendour. The semi- State coach which was built by a Lord Mayor of Dublin is a beautiful vehicle in all the glory of "lake, vermilion, and gold, surmounted by one large centre crown and {our smaller ones. one at each corner of the roof. The hammer-cloth is a. gorgeous arrangement of purple. scarlet, and gold. embossed with the royal arms. For State purposes there are also a dozen other coaches ot lake and vermilion decoration. with similar regal hammer-cloths and crowned tops. Perhaps the most interesting of these royal carriages is the com- paratively plain landau which the Queen invariably used in London. and to which she remained loyal during the last quarter of a century of her life. The Windsor stables are almost equally interesting. with their mag- nificent greys and their army of carriages of all degrees of stateli- vwvvwâ€" ness and simplicity.

Bad Case of Kidney Weakness. â€"Becommends Them Highly to All Those Who Are Worried by any Urinary Sediment. Montreal, Aug, 26.â€"Dan W. Allan, proprietor of the Way Freight Ho- tel here. made a strong statement about the well-known reiuedy‘Dodd's Kidney Pills. Mr. Allan's hotel is at 468 St. James street and en joys considerable popularity with railroad men. Some of the latter were discussing ailments peculiar to engineers, brakemen. iiremen, conductors, and train crews generally. It was ac- knowledged that the greatest difli- culty a railway man has to contend with is Kidney Trouble. The con- tinual jarring of the train weakens the filters of the system and various forms of Kidney Trouble result “Gentlemen," said Mr. Kim. "1 firmly believe Dodd's Kidney Pills will do everything that is claimed for them. They are a genuine medi- cine. They cured me of Kidney Trouble. I know that.

People Who A Londoner. who had chambers in Piccadilly. was ordered to a small country place for rest and change of air. In a very short time he was the victim of the most terrible insomnia and fits of nerves into the bargain. The local doctor whom he consulted was a clever fellow. He recommend- ed him to move from his apartments to a hotel. at the back of which was a yard frequented at night by car- ters watering their horses on the way -to a neighboring market town. It is a strange fact. too. that those who have lived by the seashore for any length of time find it difficult to obtain their usual 'rest. They miss the music of the shore. which in time becomes part and parcel of their slumbers. Country people, when visiting Lon- don. rarely sleep well for the noise. Most people know this. but has it ever occurred to you that Londoners frequently sufier in the same way while staying in the country owing to the excessive quiet? "They miss ufc dull roar of the streets by day. and by night. the rat- tle of cabs, and the hundred-and-one noises familiar to those who live in the crowded thoroughfares of the axe-- tropolis.

The Matterhorn of the Selkirks. Mount Sir Donald, has at last been ascended by a woman. says a letter from Glacier. B.C. Only about a dozen men have succeeded in getting to the highest point of this pyra- mid of stone with its needle point piercing the sky at an elevation of 10,700 feet, although many have come from all parts of the globe to attempt its ascent. There are high- er mountains. but few on this con- tinent so diflicult of ascent. and yet a small woman. a bride. not more :than 5 feet 2 inches high. and weigh- ‘ing only 96 pounds. has succeeded where strong and experienced moun- itaineers have failed. Mr. and Mrs. Berenfoi Kent. England, are on a bridal tour round the world. Mrs. Berens learn- ed the other evening that no woman had ever climbed to the top of Sir Donald. She had never done any mountain climbing except she had ascended Mount Stephen. but only to the fossil beds. which is an easy ascent. Neither had she suitable clothing.

She says she had simply determin- ed to go to the top, and she did ; but she does not advise any other bride to spend her honeymoon that way nor any other woman to make the trip. Potatoes were first cultivated on what is now the border of Peru and Chili in the Andes Mountains. Mrs. Berens was apparently none the worse for the trip and appeared at dinner at usual. She was so modest concerning her achievement that she was with great difficulty induced to speak of it. She thinks there are at least 3,000 peaks and as many glaciers visible from the top of Sir Donald. She had any number of narrow escapes. Once the snow cornice upon which she was walking gave way and precipit- ated her. luckily, upon a huge bank of snow many feet below. At. another time she slipped upon the ice and was held dangling over a precipice, and had the guides not held her would have {allun several thousand feet to the rocks below.
