A Norwegian inventor has, after many years of exporiment, disccvered‘ a method of making artificial wood. A mixture consisting of sawdust, toâ€" gether with chalk and some chem{cals, is subjected to heavy pressure, and the result is a substance possessing all the qualities of timber. Its specific gravity is the same as that of genuine wood, its hardness the same as that of oak. It can be planed, sawed, bored, nailed, painted, stained, or ypolished, and submitted to every process of carpentry or manufacture to which raal wood is subjected. It will not deteriorate in water, and, on account of the chemicals it conâ€" tains, is impervious to rot. Moreover, it ouly buras at a temperature very much higher than that at which real wood catches fire.

The Parks‘ authorities have designed a town plan for Jasper in order that its future growth may be kept in harâ€" mony with the beautiful environment, and this plan will form the basis of all future developments. A golf course is being laid out east of Lac Beauvert and adjacent to the Loage by the Canadian National Parks Branch. The Mount Edith Cavell highâ€" way, which takes its name from the great peak, 11,033 feet high, named in memory of the gallant British nurse, has been completed to within rive‘ miles of its terminus. Striking and Beautiful panoramas are afforded by vantage points scattered all along this new highway. An important new trail has hbeen opened up from what is known as Sunwapta cabin on the Sunâ€" wapta branch of the Athabaska River over Poboktan pass aud down to Braâ€" zeau Lake. This stretch links up a series of trails covering a distance of over 300 miles, constituting probably parks The plans for the present season inâ€" clude the building of a new road along the Athabaska, from Jasper to a point two miles east of the Snaring River. The project when completed will offer a delightful scenic drive from Jasper affording wonderful views of the wide Athabaska valley and the noble peaks on each side. "Fancy that plant being worth $750!" exclaimed a visitor to the Chelsea Flower Show in London, as they paused to glance for a moment at the new orchid, Odonto Crispum Sclem, with its stiff, snowy petals spotted with maroon. "Fancy paying all that money for it!" But orchids are paid for with human lives as well as with gold. Of ail ocâ€" eupations, orchid collecting kas the highest death rate. A few years ago, eight orchid huntâ€" ers, working in Madagascar, dined one evening at Tamatave. They arranged to have another reunion dinner the following year. When the appointed day arrived seven cf them were dead. The cighth was in hospital. He stayâ€" ed there for a year, and then sailed for Europe â€" with permanently en health. That was unusually bard luck, but every orchid collector knows of many such cases,. A collector, a German, who jeered at an idol in a Madagascar jungle village, was soaked in oil and burned to death. You are always on the brink of the grave while orchid hunting, says an expert. Invariably these bizarre, quaintly contorted little blossoms lurk in the unhealthiest depths of the jungle, where fever, s; akes, great cats, and ambushed savages with poisoned darts combine to wreck vengeance on the man who violates their privacy. Risking Death for Flowers. But orchid hunting is a man‘s game. Wo‘ve all got to die one day, and, at all events, we see to it that we do live first. We are up against the real raw stuff of adventure, and we do not know the meaning of boredom. If toâ€" day we have draw1 blank, tomorrow we may find a rare Dendrobinm growâ€" ing in a mouldering skull at a hillâ€" tribe‘s burying ground, or another treasure or two clustering like misâ€" tletoe in a cleft at the top of a 90â€"4t. The Heart Blossom. An apple, big and red and round; No orchard monarch ever found Surpassed in beauty, taste or smell, This, that from perfect ripeness fell, Midway ‘twixt stem and blossom end My blade I made all haste to sendâ€" I halved it. In that apple‘s heart I saw the blossom‘s counterpart. A seed pod, where each petal fair Had been, lay spread before me there, A working model of the bloom That once had lightened March‘s gloom, Through all the fortnights that had flown The while that fruitage fine had grown, The blossom‘s image had remained To that great apple‘s heart enchained. Doep down within each human heart Lives our Creator‘s counterpart! The Godâ€"thought out of which we came Still lingers, ever more the same. â€"Stickland Gillilan. Uncle Sam is the most popular nickâ€" name in the United States. | We all know the jovial, lanky, beardâ€" ed American with his peculiar topâ€"hat, his voluminous coat, and striped trousers strapped under his boots.

The joke spread, until finally Uncle Sam was understood to stand for the United States. Winard‘s Linimont used by Physiciana The Story of Uncle Sam. Cholera Infantum is one of the fatal i ailments of childhood. It is a trouble | that comes on suddenly, especially during the summer m« nths, and unless prompt action is taken the little one may soon be beyond aid. Baby‘s Own Tablets are an ideal medicine in wardâ€" ing off this trouble. They reguiat» the bowels «nd sweeten the stomach and thus prevent all the dreaded summer complaints. They are an absolutely ‘sate medicine, being guaranteed by a government analyst to contain ro ‘opiales or narcotics or other harmful drugs. They cannot possibly do harm ‘â€"they always do good.

The ranch has been stocked with prize cattle from the Prince‘s English estates. Until recently it was generally conâ€" sidered that a thought occurred with the speed of lightning. But modern methods of measurement have shown that the speed of thought is not by any means exceptional. The time taken for a nervous imâ€" pulse to travel from the elbow to the brain and thence to the wrist proved that it did so at about 180ft. a second. Stmilarly a frog thinks at the rate of about 90ft. a gecond, and it takes two seconds for a whale 150ft. long to realize that he has been harpooned in the tail and to lash out with it. In some peculiar way, however, the speed of thought seems to depend upon the temperature of the body. If a man‘s body is warm he is able to think quicker than i# he is cold; and if his nerves are frozen they will not conâ€" duct impulses at all. A frog at seventeen degrees will think only half as quickly as another at thirtyâ€"five, while if the frog be warmed to the temperature of a man the animal will think equally as quickâ€" ly A coldâ€"blooded creature like the freshâ€"water mussel thinks only at about two and a half inches a gecond. One of the cuttlefishes thinks at the rate of three feet a second in winter and the octopus in summer three to five times as quickly. Many drugs, as well as cold, will deâ€" crease the speed of thoughtâ€"chloroâ€" form obviously, and ether and alcohol less obviously. The ability to think quickly seems to vary, too, with temperament. â€" A melancholic or lethargic man thinks more slowly than a choleric individual. In all cases, however, it is practically impossible to tire out the nerves, They will always think even though the brain, which receives the impulses, may be too tired to deal with them.

Emma Calve, the great singer, is at home she lives in an anâ€" clent castle perched on a rocky moun| tain side in her native province of Aveyron, in the south of France. It is the castle of Cabieres, and it was built in the year 1050. A natural platâ€" form of rock juts out in front of it like the prow of a ship, and there the singâ€" _er, who especially loves the ancient folk songs of her country, often stands answering the songs of the shepherds who watch their sheep on the distant uplands. One day, however, she sang before a shepherd on the farther side of the mountain, a boy of sixteen who was guiding her with a party of guests from the chateau througb the famous grotto of Dargilan, a labyrinthine sucâ€" cession of caverns. We came at last, Madame Calve reâ€" lates, in her recent autobiography, to a tremendous cave. Its vast, mysterious depth fascinated me. I began to sing. The boy started and turned toward me. "Oh!" he exclaimed. "How lovely! If the mistress could hear you, she would certainly give you a job. You could come every day and sing for the tourists. I am sure she would pay you much money for it." "How much do you think she would pay me?" I asked. "Well, now," he said judiciously, screwing up his brow and scratching his head, "it‘s hard to say. I think she might go as high as five francs a day. It would be good business." "I‘ll think it over," I answered. "It‘s very kind of you to give me the tip. But don‘t you know me? I live over the way at Cabrieres." "No. madame; I have never been so far as that. Our church is up there on the plateau, and that is as far as I have ever traveled." A year later I was again visiting the grotto. The boy was still there. He recognized me and came toward me, twisting his cap in his hands. "Good morning, madame," be mumbled. "I guess you had a good laugh at me last year." _ "What do you mean," I asked. "Why should I laugh at you?" "I was told afterwards who you were," he answered.
