The Pneumonia Season.
The cold, damp weather of March
seems to be most favorable for the
pneumonia germ. Now is the time to
be careful. Pneumonia often results
from a cold. The quicker a cold is
gotten rid of the less the danger. As
soon as the first indication of a cold
appears take Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy. As to the value of this prep
aration, ask anyone who has used it.

How to avoid waste is to be one of
the lessons of the economy cumpnlgn,
and at the ministry of food plans are
being elaborated. In one department
the visitor may see samples of oils
from fish-waste, iiotash from banana
stalks. fats from slaughter-house ref
use, dried house swill for pig and poul
try food, 1 It meal und grit for poultry
from unsound fish, metals from old
tins and scraps, and disinfectant pow

A provincial mayor has collected a
box of tinfoil saved from a year's but

und pig foods, ns well as fertilizers,

Glnsgow Is systematically salvaging
the by-products of waste. Other towns

Among the Smith Sound tribe of
northernmost Greenland the favorite
diet is walrus meat, says Fitzhugh
Green In Popular Mechanics Magazine.
When one of these animals ha*
been harpooned and, after a struggle,
sometimes lasting many hours, is tln-
ally dispatched, his 2,090-pound car
cass is towed to the ice edge and
hauled out for butchery.
Shoulders, flippers, and sections of
the trunk are buried under n pile of
stones to guard against the depreda
tions of thieving foxes. Entrails are
raked out nnd fed to the famished
wolves which form North Greenland
dog teams.
Follows then the feast. For entree
a segment of the outer flipper has
been saved, a little stringy as a rule,
but of a peculiar rancid flavor exceed
ingly tasty to the native palnte.
The creature’s stomach may con
tain several gallons of clams. One rip

handfuls of the repulsive, half-digested

By this time the pot Is on and some
thick lumps of meat and fat from near
the backbone are boiling with frag
rant (to the Eskimo) odors. Much
meat has already been devoured raw
by those too hungry to wait.
Men are almost full. Sleeping skins
are spread. Tales begin in sleepy,
droning tones. “Brother, a bit of mum-

rises and goes out. Presently he re
turns with the huge tusked head. Dan

EX-KING DOES USEFUL WORK
Manuel of Portugal Now Director of
School for the Re-education of
Maimed 8oldlere.
Royalty has suffered much In the
present war, even at the hands of Its
friends. When the Interallied confer
ence In the Interest of permanently
disabled soldiers was concluded In
Paris, a party of delegates Journeyed
to England to Inspect the great schools
established there for the re-education
of men maimed In battle. One of these
schools In particular excited the visi
tors’ admiration because of Its mar
velous equipment and seemingly per
fect management. This was all the
more remarkable because the director
of the school was a very young man.
So much Impressed were the visitors
that before leaving they waited upon
the youthful director and fairly show
ered him with praise.
"It Is both a great responsibility and
a high honor to you, sir,” said their
spokesman, a distinguished French sci
entist, “to have been placed nt your
age at the head of so Important a
school."
"I agree with you, Doctor -------- .
but In times pnst I have hnd occasion
to direct matters even more Important
than these,” replied the young man,
who was none other than the ex-King
Manuel of Portugal.
Congresa of Polish Techniclane.
The Polish engineers nnd technicians
now residing In Russia held a congress
at Moscow recently, nt which 285 per
sons were present. The program con
sisted of general discussions concern
ing the rehabilitation and development
of industry in Poland after the war,
also the organisation of technical edu
cation. Special sections dealt with
architecture, mechanics, chemistry.
electricity, and economics.
It was decided to found n Polish fls-
soclation of engineers and technicians
In Russia, with branches in the prin
cipal industrial centers, and also to
undertake the publication of a bi
weekly sheet that should become the
organ of the society. Among the reso
lutions adopted was one relating to the
future economic development of Po-
land.
New Hotel for Lima, Peru.
The Congress of Peru by recent leg
islation has provided for an up to date
hotel In Lima, to be constructed under
the supervision of the national govern
ment of Peru nnd to cost not less than
£200.000 (973,000). The site set aside
for the hotel is government property
located in the heart of the city and Is
to be acquired by the company con
structing the hotel.
The need of a modern hotel In Lima
hns been keenly felt by the travelers
for some time, sayB Commerce Reports.
During recent years the number of
commercial travelers nnd tourists vis
iting the west coast of South America
has more thnn doubled, and mnny of
these have found It inconvenient or
even Impossible to remain longer than
a few days In Lima because of the lack
of adequate hotel accommodations.

PLENTY OF STORAGE PLACES
Woman Who Haa Made Home Into a
Veritable "House of a Thou
sand Closets.”
One little woman living not far from
New York, says Harriet Sisson Gilles
pie ln’the Mother's Magazine, has been
able by the expenditure of t. moderate
sum of money to transform an Imprac
ticable closetless dwelling into one in
which housekeeping is not only a
pleasure, but where the problem of
storing away clothing has been satis
factorily solved.
Among her friends It Is known ns
"the house of a thousand closets,"
which is nearly if not literally true.
Every little cubby hole below the
shingles hns been utilized for closet
space. There are banks of closets on
both the second nnd nttlc floors, to suy
nothing of n cedar closet with sun and
air nnd electric light, for the recep
tion of the owner’s choicest posses
sions. Some of the closets nre cedar
lined, others sheathed with matched
bonrds of North Carolinn pint, well
shellacked to keep out the moths and
frequently sprayed with a liquid in
which oil of cedar plays a part.
A printed list of every article con
tained in the drawers nnd cupboards is
tacked in plain sight in order that the ’
frantic search for inanimate things
that seem suddenly to have taken
wings nnd flown away, may be entirely
obviated.
New York and Quebec.
Quebec City is older tnun New York
It was founded in 1608 by Samuel d<
Champlain, whereas the earliest date
that can be set for the founding ol
New York is 1610. New York Bay and
the Hudson river were discovered bj
Verrazano in 1524, and the discovery
was followed by occasional visits ot
trading and exploring vessels until the
arrival of Henry Hudson In 1609, one
year after Champluln had built hie
fort and chateau on the slope leading
np to the heights of Quebec. Begin

the fur trade with the Indians, and I d

having lost his vessel, built thef*On-

the upper harbor of New York. About
the same time a few huts were bulll
on the south end of Manhattan island.
In 1623 the country was erected into
a province by the Dutch, and the seat
of government was established on Man
hattan island, on part of the Ate of
the present city of New York. Dutch
rule commenced, and continued until
September 8, 1664, almost one hundred
years before the British acquired New
France or Canada.
