It contemplates a survey of the arid region mid thedivision of it into districts oy hydrugraph:c basins, each basin consisting of the streams and tributaries which they rtr.un and which may be made available for wateriug lands Each basin ia to have a local government similar to a county government, enabling tlie settlers in each to control Iheir af fairs, subject only to the Unit-d States law. L-t- a iii"iTiew.wrn-TeiBon A Miles save: A proposition., attbeen made to expend (12-i,000,ihio lor dciense ol the coasts of the United States washed by the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. Accord ing to the promoters of tlie scheme this sum of money could be disposed of ad- vnntageousiy in the course oi lour or nve years; btu, u the usual coutse is pursued with appropriations, nearly a generation will haye passed away before any prac tical results are accomplished. This is an important subject, and Congress can not do a wiser thing than to authorize a speedy outlay for protection of the large cities of the L'nited States, now almost defenseless. It is generally conceded that the Ore gon delegation is one ot the hardest working in Congress. It is certuin that in the matter of the introduction of bills the two Senators and one Representative are far ahead of any three men in the Fifty-first Congress. Senator Dolph has introduced thirty-three general bills, mostly for the Pacific Coast, but some ot them alfectiug the entire country. He hag presented eleven memorials and pe titions and two resolutions and private claim and relief bills for many persons. Senator Mitchell has introduced forty general bills, some affecting the whole country, but the majority of them local to Oregon and Washington. He has in troduced twenty-three memorials and pe titions and seven resolutions and numer ous private bills Representative Her mann has introduced thirty-six gencr.il bills, five memorials and two resolutions, besides private bills.

In bis northern trav els Dr. Kuckenthal, of Jona, recently observed that a harpooned white whale continued under water forty-five min utes. L . RAiont obae.rYaUoia ot the waters of Great huit lake prove conclusively that the statements made that no form of animal or plant life exists in the lake are erroneous. No fish or other large form of animal llio has been discovered, but the presence of vegetable organisms in tbe lake may be considered a fact from the abundance of animal exist ences. Tbe testimony of medioal experts has lately been discredited In England by reason of the diametrical views taken by distinguished physicians and sur geons when testifying in murder trials. It is said that "one point only is de termined by this evidence, and that is that the pliysinlans have no olearly de fined ami fixed sclentiflo basis on which to found tholr opinions." In Bowling Green, Ky., there is a very sagacious dog. The other morning horse was left standing bitched to a buggy, and while Its owner was In an adjacent place of business tlie animal took l right and ran away. He was go ing at a break nook speed, whon the dog saw him, lumped the fence, headed tbe horse, grabbed the line In his mouth and held him fust until tbe owner of the beast cume up and relieved him. It Is a little singular, with all our mutual benefit societies, that a mutual dowry society was never established. Imagine the effect upon tbe matrimonial market ot a thousand young women de voting ten cents a week, a fixed per centage to be given to those who are married within the year. The anxious and aimless could not then become a drug in tbe market Something of this kind Is In vogue In Europe, where it is stipulated that a beneficiary must have been a member ot the society for five years before reuulne a dot In Algeria every girl born of native parents ia tattooed on her fore head between tbe eyebrows and just at tho root of the nose with a cross formed of several straight lines of small stars T running - close- to gether.

There are actually at Stamboul about ninety regular slave brokers who sell and buy slaves, or who are the medium of buying or selling. The slaves a-e lodged In bouses known by the publio, just as they know tne dealers In any sort of merchandise. The principal slave houses are about thirty. The Abyssinian slaves are rare on ac count of tlie delicacy ot their health. An Abyssinian maiden from fourteen to seventeen is worth from 60 to 120 liras (a lira is worth about 18 shillings), but a handsome one Is sure to bring 800 Bros. White slaves (Toherkes) are more abundant. Muidens from twelve to fifteen are quoted from 00 to 800 liras, and those from sixteen to twenty from 00 to 1,000 liras. Tbe price varies according to beauty, size, complexion and accomplishments. Singers and musicians generally bring a good price. Many people here buy slaves for legal marriages, preferring them to Turks. Tbe reason is that a slave has no rela tions (mother-in-law especially), and, therefore, no visitors or callers. She endeavors to please her husband. She is obedient and economical, and very affoctlonute even lr pretty well treated. Many sieves would not leave their masters lur the world, but many others would be too glad to obtain their lib erty. Homo are well looked after, well cared for, richly dressed and have costly jewels. They dino with their lady and are treated as companions and as mem bers of the family. Among the possessors of slaves who were the most noted for their kindness and benevolence was the late Princess Zeinoub Hiinoum, tbe daughter of the first Viceroy ot Egypt, Mehemot Alt. During ber lifetime she gave monthly allowances, from two to fifty liras, to each of ber slaves. She had some eighty of them married to respectable gentlemen, and gave to each a dowry of from ".,000 lo 5,000. Before her death, throe years ago, she made a will grant ing freedom to all ber slaves and dis tributing to them valuable presents and settlement. There are hundreds of young girls who are sold to persons who sell them or exchange them for others of greater beauty, it is revolting to see to what extent slavery is encouraged here, and how many ot these poor creatures would like to fly away from tlie brutal ity of their masters, and how many others are exported against their will. In general, slavery here is tlie curse of ir4-rent. bonds will I pur- 'The trials have been emimntly success- j Unipqtui 1920 l"" country.- oiut,tiiiopl. Cor.

Eczema accent on the first syllable- is one of the many eruptive diseases ot the skin. . The blood-vessels of tbe parts utTeeted are in a state of conges tion, nccoimmulod bv Itching, smarting und ex iiilu tion of serum, or wutcry por tion of tile blood. The disease varies gt-eutly In severity and extent as well as In its course and character. Its simplest form is a mere redness, perhaps on the eyelids or behind the ears, or neur tho joints. Some times there are pimples, either on affected spots or around them, or more or less dlirused over the body. Sometimes vesicles wutor-bluddors are formed by tho exudation of serum beneath tho skin, tho special seat being the buck of tho hand or tbe front and shies of the tl tigers. In a few days the serum may be ubsorbed, the swelling subsides, the cuticle- dries up and comes olf, and tho skin either returns to its normal condition or the cuticle Is thrown olf In si-ales. In another vurloty there is intenso rcduoNH, profuse exudation and the formation of a thick crust through fis sures In which a mucous pus exudes. The final period of eczema, when chronic, may he characterized by a com ing olf of the cuticle in thin, fine scales, or by a tendency of the skin to chap and ciuck; sometimes tbo mere stretching ot the fingers will cuuse It to break. In some cases tbe skin becomes as hard and tough us leather, with an in- Unatton to itch and throw off dry and scaly scurf; more rarely It Is rough like an old wart, in which case the Itching Is generally vory severe. As a rule, tho eczema occurs in limited patches, but occasionally it spreads over large part ot tbo trunk or limb. 'I'll ere is hardly any part of the body which It may not attack. It is not contagious. The disease may result from a condi tion of the laxly from constitutional debility, or temporary derangement of the nervous or digestive organB, or even from unsuitable or insufficient food or it may have an external exciting cause -cold or heat in excess, lnsulllcient lothing, or garments that irritate the skin. The treatment must be first directed aguinst that which causes tho condition of which the eczema is only a symptom. At tho same time locul treutment will bo necessary. Hut no general direction can bo given suited to so variable a disease. A skilled physician should have charge of tho case. Youth's Companion. Adventure In a Forest. On Little river, near Osceola, La., Robert Warren, a lumberman, lost his way in the woods. He thought he heard a buinun voice, and hallooed to attract attention. Ills shout was answered, and the cries came nearer and nearer. Then lie discovered that it was a pan ther that hud been yelling. Being un armed he climbed a tree and remained in it for uti hour. The panther finally left When be thought the coast was dear Warren descended and pursued his way, and when be again hallooed to t tract attention the panther returned, this time ui-coiiipaiiicd by his mate. Up pling he again went armed with a stout club and determined to sell bis life as dearly us posnibie. In tbe mean time the hoys in camp had become lurmcd at his absence and started out to search for him. They bud reached a point within a quarter of a mile of where he was treed when they caught the aouiid of bis call for help, and, as an answering signal, tired olf a gun, which had tlie clleet of frightening oil tbe panthers. - I'liie.i-o Herald, :? i i r
