In India it is not an uncommon thing for the . children‘ ofâ€"a maboutâ€"the keeper of one or more elephantsâ€"to be cared for by his animals. Instances are not wanting of a mother‘s sysâ€" tematic placing of her baby in an eleâ€" phant‘s care. and, withinâ€"reach of its trunk while the mother herself goes to fetch water or to get wood or materâ€" lals to cook the family meal, It is pointed out that no jackal or wolf ‘would be likely to pick up and carry off a baby which was thus conâ€" fidedto theâ€"care of an etephant. Most people who have lived in the junrgle know how very possible it is for an animal of the first class to carry off a baby when it is lying in a hut or when the mother is unprovided with means to fight off the marguder. Children brought up in the companâ€" lonship of an elephant become ridicuâ€" lously familiar with the big pachyderm and take all manner of lberties with him, liberties which the elephant seems to endure on the principle that they do not annoy him (while they amuse the chlld. One. may see, It is averred, a little native. child, quite naked, about two feet high, ‘standing on an elephant‘s bare back and taking it down to the water to bathe, vociferating all the while in most unbecoming terms of native abuse. On arriving at the water, the eleâ€" bhant ostensibly in obedience to the child‘s command, liee down and enâ€" jJoys himself, leaving just a portion of his body,â€"like a small island, above the water. Upon this part of the elephant the child will stand and shout, yelling all tha more if he hes several comâ€" panions of his own age also in charge of elephants, all wallowing in the water around him. If the child should slip off his island the elephant‘s trunk immediately replaces him in safety. These urchins, when they grow up, become assistants to the mahouts, and in time eventually attain tha dignity of becoming mabouts themselves. Superannuation â€" Allowanees Total Nearly $500,000.

("~One of the most astamishing memoâ€" nle_feats on record is recorded by John Wesloy. "I knew a man about twenty years ago," writes Wesley, "who was so thoroughly acquainted with the Bible that if he wasâ€"questioned as to Any Webrew word in the Old or any Greek word in the New Testament he would tell after a little pause, not only how ofter the ons or the other occurred In the Bible, but also what it meant in every place. His name was Thomas Walsh. Such a master of.Bible knowledge I never saw beâ€" fore, and never expect to sea again." Walsh had a close rival in Macaulay, who, according to James â€" Stephen, could repeat "all Demost‘ienes by heart, and all Milton as well as a great part of the Bible."

Of these coniferous trees, or "evergreens," spruce easily takes first place, constituting over oneâ€"third of the Ilumber and threeâ€"quarters of the pulpwood cut iu Canada in 1912, Four of the five species of spruce aro of commercial importance, and at least two of these five are found in every province of the Dominion.

That sawdust and other mill waste can be profitably manufactured into briqueites for fuel is evident from the fact that a large lumber company in British Columbia is erecting a $5(,000 plant, which will have a daily output of about thirty tons of such briquettes. They will sell for about five dollars & tou at the. mill. During September and October, 1913, several hundred bushels of pine cones were gathered by the Forest Rangers on Dominion Forest Reserves. This work is often made easy by the squirrels, which store large quantities of green cones in holes for use in the . winter‘. months. ‘Thé â€" Rangers spread out the cones in some dry place, and, when the scales open, the seeds amre ~shaken out, and the following spring the best of them are planted in the forest nurseries. This summer an expert soil analyst was engaged by the Forestry Branch of the Dominion Government to subâ€" stantiate the findings of the forest surveyors in cases where there was any doubt as to the nonâ€"agricultural character of forest areas to be reserved. A novel use has been found for the waste liquor from sulphite pulp mills, as a binder for cinders and similar materials used in the construction of tennis conrts. Paper cannon are manufactured by the Krupp works, Germany for inâ€" fantry use in rough country. â€" They are so light that a soldier can easily carry one and yet the resistance is greater than that of a metal fieldâ€"plece of the same ‘calibre.

Fresh air fiends will get little support for their propaganda in the views of â€" Professor Leonard Hill, an English physiclogist. He maintains that bad air is not so very bad, after all. He says it is an erroneons idea that the air of close, crowded rooms is .contamiâ€" nated by the exhalations of human beings and is impoverished of oxyâ€" gen. It is the heat in a close room that makes us feel uncomfortable, not the lack of oxygen or the surplus of carbonic acid in the air, accordâ€" ing to the professor. The only efâ€" fect of an excess of carbonic acid supposed to bemvery poisononsâ€"is to make us breathe deeply and vyenâ€" tilate our lungs more fully. As for the loss of: oxygen in a close room, "it is noever diminishedâ€" by â€"more than one per cent., for the cracky, crannies and pores of the walls alâ€" ways suffice bo let fresh air in."‘ However that may beâ€"and a layâ€"| man should hesitate to dispute a‘ scieniistâ€"it can hardly be denied| that pure outdoor air tagtes and | sme!ls much better than the air in even a ventilated room..
