Shortly before his marriage with her mother the four-year-old said one day, when the approaching wedding -was be ing discussed: "I'll bo glad when Mr. G comes hero to live." Her mother was pleased. "Why will you be glad!" she asked. "Causo p'r'aps then we'll go away sometimes." After the wedding the stepfather at tempted to correct the child for misbe havior at the table. She robelled and said, with flashing eyes: "Tills isn't your house anyways." "No," he said gently, "it is our house." "No, it is not," she replied, "it's just your 6tephouse."

He finally, after trying everything, said stomach was about worn out, and that I would have to cease eating solid food for a time at least. I was so weak that I could not work. Finally on the recom mendation of a friend who had used your preparations with beneficial re sults, I procured a bottle of August i' lower, mm com menced using it. It seemed to do me good at once. I gained in strength and flesh rapidly ; my ap petite became good, and I suffered no bad effects from what I ate.

A littlo carbolic acid powder is used in the packing to preserve them from at tack by insects In this crude state they are worth from lifty to eighty cents a dozen, according to quality "The history of the rabbit's introduo tion Into Australia and New Zealand affords an illustration of the damage man may do by interfering with the distribution oJ animals which nuture has chosen to make in the world. When Captain Cook, the celebrated navigator, first vi-ited those countries he found a fauna entirely different from that of any other part of the world. In Australia gigantic marsu pials, like tho kangaroo, wero cliielly conspicuous, while in New Zealand rite only laud mammals were two varieties of the rat and one of the common bat, "Since then 'acclimatization societies' have done their best to introduce there all sorts of creatures on four legs and two legs that could be brought from elsewhere. In many instances these ef forts resulted most unfortunately. Several years ago some dozen pairs of common gray rabbits wero imported for the purpose of supplying sportsmen with an object for tho chase. Tho oc casion of this interesting experiment was made ono of rejoicing, and the beasts wero let looso with speeches and banquets to welcome them. They multiplied so fast that the people did not havo to wait long for all tho sport of that kind they could desiro. "In fnct, they soon overrun the country in such numbers that it bo caino a questiou whether they or the colonists should occupy the land. Great areas were entirely denuded of vege tation by them, so that the sheep died 'w millions and the raising of crops be came almost an impossibility." Wasii Ington Shir. I The Disport of Kefm In Cltlt. Tho disposal of tho refuso In cities, I while It has been n. problem In the san itation of our larger towns, is yet to oe rolved. There Is probably not a city ol any size In tho United States where the disposal of wastps is satisfactory or conducted in such a manner as to meet the demands of cleanline and ' giene. If there Is a perfect plan adopted there are to lie found defects in it execution which render ineffective the methods used. The ronnrt of Mr Walter V Hart, general K-miitiry otilcer of tho ChicngK board of health, gives a sum mary of different cities as to their methods of "collection nnd disposal of garbage and relu.-e. " From this we learn that lu New York tho carhaire is collected by the citv teams, loaded noon Jlatbo.its, re moved to sen and dumped The gar bage is removed from Phila Julphia by small contractors in a very unsatisfac tory manner; wine feed to hogs, others sell to farmers, nnd nt times it is buned or accumulated on the ground, await ing slow decomposition. Cremation Is recommended. In Krooklvn refuse is removed to the sea. Collections are made daiJy from hotels, from dwellings twice a week in winter und three times a week In summer. St Louis collects its garbage and discharges it nt certain dumps. It Is not satisfactory, nnd cre mntion is also here recommended. -Sanitary News. Oue Plint family. Three American food plants, tho In dian corn, the potato nnd tomato, have revolutionized the food problem of the civilized world. Vet another American plant, though not n food producer, might bo added to this list ol Now World conquerors, for it lias had a history even more remarkable than that of the ethers: the "Virginia weed" has penetrated far beyond tho bounds of civilization, and made conquests where the names of the other three plants have scarcely been heard. The tomato comes of a family which Is largely In the service of mankind. It gave us fiW of all the potato.

A novel device, one which seems tc be regarded as a step at least in render ing railroad travel safer than it is at present, consists of an apparatus foi automatically signaling a train at any given station on tho lino by the train dispatcher at the directing point, which may bo hundreds of miles away from the station at which it is desired to dis play tho signal. Tho latter, however, is not intended to take the place of an operator; it is rather in the nature ol nn emergency signal and a check upon tho operahir who may be engaged in other duties away from his instrument at the all important moment But not only this, the apparatus au tomatically returns a response to the dispatcher, indicating that tho signal has been set. nnd at tho same time a bell is sounded to attract tho attention of tho operator, who Is in this way noti fied that his immediate attention at the wire is demanded. This mechanism is flexible in its application, and there are many other important uses to which it can bo put. New York Sun. American Griirrnihy.

LUo Spent on the Water. In Japan thousands are born nnd die on boats without ever living on shore. One of tho most interesting features ol Japanese life is the manner of living in boats and junks, thousands of which frequent every bay along the coast. The awkward junks always belong to tlio members of one family, and usually every member of the fnmily. old and young, lives on board. Tho smallei sailboats nro very narrow, and the sail (thoy never have but ono) is placed very near the stern, and extends from tho mast about tho same distance in either direction. In these boats men and women are born and dio without over having an abiding place on shore. They wear but few clothes, except when it rains, when thoy put on layers of fringy straw mats, which glvo them the appearanee of be ing thatched. At night if in harbor they bend poles over the boat from side to side, in the shape of a bow, cover them with this straw, and go to sleep altogether like a lot of pigs. London Tit-Hits.

I also saw at a Batak house a skull of a uiowas, evidently a very old speci men, whose teeth and Jaws were no whit inferior In strength to those of a tiger. I tried to buy the skull, but tho owner would not part with it, and told a long story as to how it caiuo in his possession.
