Supposing a woodchopper in the
Maine forest is told to get out a mast
for a yacht He knows that be must
find a tree which Is straight for 60
feet below the branches. It would be
very troublesome to climb trees and
measure them with a tape measure,
so be, without knowing it, uses prac­
tical trigonometry. He measures off
50 feet in a straight line from the tree,
and then be cuts a pole, which, when
upright In the ground, is exactly as tall
as himself. This be plants In the
earth his own length from the end of
his 60 feet.
For example, if he Is six feet tall, he
plants his six foot pole 54 feet from
the tree. Then he lies down on his
back, with his bead at the end of the
line and bls feet touching the pole,
and sights over the top of It He
knows that where his eyes touch the
tree is almost exactly 60 feet from
the ground.—Weekly Bouquet

That’s a pathetic story of the Gour-
don fishing boat crew. No class of men
face death more frequently than the
hardy fisher tollers of the sea, and
among none Is a genuine heroism more
frequently displayed.
The Gourdon boat was manned by
a father and Ills four sons. When the
boat sank, three of the latter went
with her. The old man got an oar, and
soon the fourth son appeared by his
side. But the oar could only support
one, and the lad, taking In the situa­
tion at once, bade his parent farewell
in the words, “Weel, week faither, I
maun jlst awa’,” and sank.
Only readers familiar with the north­
ern dialect will fully appreciate the
depth of kindly resignation and true
feeling which the words denote. The
father endured terrible sufferings, but
was ultimately picked up. “Greater
love bath no man than this.”—West­
minster Gazette.

BRIEF MENTION,
He Wahid Knew More.
An exceedingly well dressed woman
sat in an elevated railway car the oth­
er day, and opi*osjte her was an elderly
man. The woman got up to leave the
car, and in the corner of the seat
where she had been sitting the man
spied a piece of black net. Jumping
for It, he called out:
“Madam, you have left your veil!”
As she took no notice of him he
dashed down the aisle after her, and,
touching her on the elbow again, said:
“Madam, you have left your veil,”
kt the same time holding it up in full
view of all.
It was a frowsy, frayed, torn piece
of black cotton net.
“It is not mine, sir!” she snapped
out, giving him a withering look, and
the obliging old man shrank back as
if be had been jabbed with a hatpin,
while the passengers grinned.
“Why was she so mad about it?”
he asked in a dazed way as he laid
the homely little rag on the window
sill.
“I guess you never paid for a wo-
man’s finery,” said another man.
“That’s so,” said the withered one
In a hopeless tone. “I am a bachelor.
Perhaps I’d know more if I’d mar­
ried.”
“You would that,” said the other
feelingly.—New York Tribune.

Ask your physician this ques­
tion, "What is the one great
remedy for consumption?”
He will answer, "Cod-liver
oil.” Nine out of ten will
answer the same way.
Yet when persons have
consumption they loathe all
fatty foods, yet fat is neces­
sary for their recovery and
they cannot take plain cod­
liver oil. The plain oil dis­
turbs the stomach and takes
away the appetite. The dis­
agreeable fishy odor and
tastg make it almost unen­
durable. What is to be done?
This question was ans­
wered when we first made
SCOTT'S
EMULSION
of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypo­
phosphites. Although that
was nearly twenty-five yean
ago, yet it stands alone to­
day the one great remedy
for all affections of the throat
and lungs.
The baa taste and odor have been
taken away, the oil itself has been
partly di jested, and the most sen­
sitive stomach objects to it rarely.
Not one in ten can take and di jest
the plain oiL Nine out ol ten can
take SCOTTS EMULSION and di­
jest it That’s why it cures so
many cases of early ctMuamptien.
Even in advanced cases it bnnjs
comfort and jreatly proionjs life.

yawn, or gape. Fowls often do this.
Fish yawn; they open their mouths
slowly until they are round, the bones
of the head seem to loosen, and the
gills open.
Dogs are inveterate yawners and
stretchers, but seldom sneeze unless
they have a cold. Cats are always
stretching their bodies, legs and claws,
as every one knows who has a cat for
a pet
Horses stretch violently when and
after indulging in a roll, but not, as a
rule, on all fours.
A stag when stretching sticks out his
head, stretches his fore ^eet out and
hollows his back and neck as though
trying to creep under a bar.
Most ruminant animals stretch when
they rise up after lying down. Deer
do it regularly; so do cows. This fact
is so well known that If a cow, when
arising from lying down, does not
stretch herself it is a sign she is ill.
The reason for this is plain—the
stretch moves every muscle of the
body, and If there be any injury any­
where It hurts.—Pittsburg Dispatch.
Tne special expert sent aoroau oy

months on the same plants, and. a
small patch will supply a family table
a whole season.

breathes. It has 4,320 veins, to say

The statistician of the department
of agriculture has made public his
fiscal estimates of ,the acreage, pro­
duction and value of the crops of
1899. The values are based on the
average farm prices on December 1st,
in accordance with the practice of
the department. The wheat acreage
was 44,592,416, the production 347,303,-
846 bushels, and the value $219,545,-
259, the average yield per sere being
12.3 bushels, and the average farm
price per bushel on December 1st
o8.4 cents.
The apologists for the attempted
destruction of the brave and strug­
gling Transvaal republic try to justi­
fy Great Britain's cause In ¡South
Africa by saying that the Boers have
made taxation of the outlanders op­
pressive, obtaining the bulk of taxes
raised in the country from the mines
owned by the foreigners.
Figures
which do not misrepresent the facts
in the case entirely disprove these
flimsy excuses. The product or the
Transvaal mines is taxed 2A per cent.
Great Britain exacts a 10 per cent,
tax on the output of the Klondike
mines, which American capital and
energy have developed; besides other
grossly exacting and oppressive
measures, those who are not Cana­
dians or British subjects are com­
pelled to submit to under the mining
and general laws ol the dominion.
Yet no person would attempt to jus­
tify our right to dictate law in the
Klondike region, or assert that the
United Sta es wtuld attain a high
degree of saintliness were she to at­
tempt to seize Canada.
