Inconceivable scale flourished in this
Island empire "The Pearl of the
Orient." "
The actual number of these Islands is
as yet unknown, for the Spaniard
makes an unprogresslve pioneer, but
there are estimated to be about 1,400 of
them, great and small, nestling away
lust north of tbe etrtistes, The total
area Is in the neighborhood of 140,000
square miles. Tbe population can only
be guessed at; perhaps 10,000,000 of
souls Is a fair figure at which to place
The native population is of the Malay
family, and from all accounts A simple,
easy-going people when left to them
selves, but capable' of both persever
ance and courage of a high and com
mendable order when keyed up to the
fighting pitch. There is often a large
admixture of foreign blood In tbe vvlug
of these islanders. It may be cither
Spanish or Chinese, and this mixed
race, "Metlias," as they are railed,
forms one of the most Influential class

The Philippine islander has be-;n

Value of Worms to Parmara.
V often do not appreciate the worth
of a thing until wo have lost It. The
farmers who own the large tract ot land
In Kssox which was in November last
Sooded by salt water owing to a break,
own of a lea wall, may think of this
silngo when they ruefully look at llielr
sodden gionnd. The donplmxl worms,
by their constant burrowing, kept the
land well drained; but when the sua
flood came they were ail killed, and sea
birds hud a gieat fmtt. That bind,
measuring about 00,000 acres, is still
in a spongy state, and is likely to re.
main so until the tanners' friends the
worms have had time to recover their
lost position.
