FeSv would imagine that the else Bence of suow would probably steeple -certainly double -the price ol-tins- bars It can .be easily iiroved, how- ever, that such would. be the ca. The greater part of our c.omnaon: timber comes from the forests of Scandinavia, Russia, and Canada, all of whichcountries suffer from a very severe winter. For some AVe months their surface is buried deep under a mantle oS snow, and the thermometer in the heart of the greatest pine torests not uncommon- ly tells to 80 degrees below zero - that is, 62 degrees of frost, Snow happens to be one of the best non-conductors of heat or cold in the world, and when the fall is a foot deep a thermometer showing 60 degreeof frost OA its surface will., if buried beneath the snow, rise twenty to thirty degrees. The snow, in fact, acts as an enormous blanket, and keeps the intense cold frora the roots of the trees, beoides conserving the natural warmth of the soil. Now, a full-grown gr or Nor- way pine can stand almost any de- gree of cold and live, but a young tree cannot do so. It might sprout during the summer, but a snowless winter would INFALLIBLY KILL IT. If, therefore, snow ceased, the enor- mous timber srpplies of Northern Europe, Asia, and America would disappear. Even below the northern limits of intense cold the timber supply would indirectly suffer. The enormous logs of red -wood supplied by Oregon and North California are brought down from the mountains on the spring freshets of the mountain streams. But without snow in the • mountains there would be no snow - water to supply these. freshets. and consequently the logs would have to be brought out at an enormous ex- pense, along specially -constructed roadways. Rivers all over the world -would be =opt seriously affected by the ab- sence of snow. Such great streams as the Rhine, Rhone, Danube, and . many others, are largely fed by the gradual melting of the mountain snows. If no snow fell terrible floods during rainy winters would result; ethile in summer the rivers would be mere brooks, trickling through dried- up wastes of sand and pebbles. Al- most all of India's biggest streams are snow -fed. Were these to run dry in summer the elaborate system of canals built by our Government would be useless, and famines like that of two years ago would be of constant occurrence, until, finally, the 300 millions we now govern in the Far East would be diminished to a population of not over FORTY TO FIFTY 1VIMLI0NS. Egypt lives on snow. Without the snow -water from the heights of dis- tant Abyssinia there would be no Nile flood. The Nile would doubt- less dwindle away, and disappear in the desert, like other of the streams of the Sahara. The rich mud, which makes Egypt the finest farming soil on earth, • would still be in its na- tive mouzitains, and Egypt itself • would be a bare and burning desert. Glaciers are made entirely of snow converted into rough ice by the enor- mous pressure behind it. What would Switzerland be without its snow-capped peaks and giant glaciers winding their way down into the val- leys? Incidentally it might be men- tioned that if there had never been any snow the Alps and other moun- taina would have been long ago le- velled by the free action of the frost • and rain. Snow is the protector of mountains. In the Arctic, however, the changes caused by the absence of snoW would be most marked. Greenland, instead of a vast, smooth mound of ice, would be a riven mass of fantastical- ly frost -splintered crags. There would, of course, be no icebergs, for there would be no glaciers to feed them. Only floe -ice caused by the freezing of salt water would be visi- ble. Winter would be colder, sum- mer hotter. In all probability hu- man life would be impossible beyond 40 degrees north andesouth of the equator. THE STIVIPLE EOM. • — How Be Is Imposed Upon By Unscrupulous Pedlars.

Hard study at school., coupled with the lack oS attention whine every young girl merging into womanhood should have, is reeponsible not only for tae many pale laces and. &Om:mat- ed • forms meL with such lanientable leequency, but is responsibie else ior the loss of many praluaule young lives. First there ie, an occasional headache, and a sallowness of cone plexion, from which stages, if these •early symptoms are neglected, the conclitien gradually grows worse and until decline or consumption set in and death claims another vic- tim of parental neglect. Upon noth- ers especially devolves a great re- sponsibility as their 'daughters ap- proach womanhood. The following truthful story told a reporter of the Sun by Mrs. 0. Herman. of Third Avenue, Orangeville, carries a lesson to our mothers. Mrs. Herman said: "About fifteen months ago my daugh- ter, Kate, while attending the public school studied hard. We noticed that she began to complain of headaches. Ihis was followed by a listlessness arid an utter indifference to the things that usually interest young girls. We consulted a doctor, and she took bot- tle after bottle of medicine, but with no benefit. Often she would rise ie the morning after an almost sleep- less night, her limbs all a quiver and her head reeling. She would be at- tacked with spells of dizzinessi and on the least exertion her heart would palpita,to violently, and we were really afraid she would not recover. At this stage my husband suggested that we should try Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills, aud he brought home sev- eral boxes. Kate had only taken the pills a fetv weeks 'whets there was a great change for the better. She [ grew stronger, began to eat better and to have better color, andfrom this stage it was not long until she was again enjoying the best of health and able to resume her studies at school. I might also tell you that these pills cured my daugater Emma of an attack of rheumatism, so that you see we have muth reason to praise them, and I earnestly re- commend them to all mothers whose daughters may be suffering as mine did." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure all diseases that have their origin either in a poor or watery condition of the blond or shattertel nerves. It is be- cause they make rich red blood and strengthen the nerves with every dose that they cure such troubles as an- aexnia, consumption in its early stages, nervous headache, Si. Vitus' Idance, rhautnatism. partial paralysis, Ikidney tratiale, indigestion, etc. Or- dinary medicine merely actsupon the symptoms of the trouble, and when such medicines are discontinued the trouble returns often in an aggravat- ed form. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills on the contrary go direct to the root of the trouble and cure to stay cured. See tbat the full name, "Dr. Wil - Hams' Fink Pills for Pale People," is found on the wrapper of every box. ef your dealer • does not have them send direct and they will be mailed, post paid, at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50, by addressing the Dr. 'Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ont. The London correspondent of the Manchester Guardian tells the fol- lowing story to illustrate the pro- found simplicity of the "veldt Boer." The simple veldt Boer is all in favor of buying the most ingenious Mechanisms of an advanced civiliza- tion which happen to come his way. This habit, as the philosepher will admit, is natural to simplieity. Jo- hannesburg bagmen know this very well, and they do well for them- selves out of useless trinkets, highly decorated 13ibles, and sueh like, One bagman ha,ppened to take round false teeth to the lonely farms. .A. 13oer • at one farm bought a set of teeth for hiraSelf.

Mr. Wells de- clared : • "We aro at the beginning of the greatest change that humanity • has ever uedergoee. There will be no shock as ' there is no shock at a cloudy daybreak.

Nothing is more dangerous to proper growth, more weakening to the constittition, or moee likely to pave the way to dangerous disease.

Along certain lines with certain limitations, he argued, a working knowledge of the things of the fu- ture was practicable and possible. As during the past century the amaz- ing searchlight of inference had been Passed into the remoter past, so by seeking for operating causes instead of for fossils the searchlight of in- ference might be thrown into the future. The znan of science would be-. neve at last that events in A. D. 4,- 000 were as fixed, settled and un- changeable as those of A. D. 1600, with the exception of the affairs of man and his children. It is as sim- ple end sure to work out the chang- ing orbit of the earth in future until the tidal drag hauls one unchanging face at last toward the sun, me it is to work back to the blazing, molten past.

She says : "Wien my ,baby was three months old she had indigestion very badly. She would vomit her food just as soon as she took it, no matter what I gave her. After feeding she seemed to suffer ter- ribly and would scream With pain. She seemed always hungry, but her food did her no good and she kept thin and delicate. She was very sleepless and suffered also frothcon- stipation. We tried several medi- cines recommended for these troubles but they did her no good. Finally I saw Baby's Own Tablets advertised and got a box. Alter giving them to her she began to improve in about two daysg, and iu n week's -time considered her well. She could sleep well, the vomiting ceased, her bowels became regular and she began to gain ia weight. She is now a fat, healthy baby, and I think the credit is due to Baby's Own Tablets and I would not now be without them in the house."

The French Government's bill for wolf killing in 1888 was over $25,- 000, 1,316 pairs of ears having been brought in;, and even in 1899. over X,J,y„200 was paid. The bounty is given not only for full-grown wolves .but cubs also. Oddly enough, Wolves are practically extinct in the Alps and Pyrenees, most of those killed being found in central provinces and in A1-1 sace-Lorraine. Last Deceinber a pack of sixteen wolves was seen near Metz. Russia is sumiosed to be infested by over it quarter of a- niuilion wolves. in one year recently 203 Russians were killed by these crea- tures, and the damage to live stock was set at $7,500,000. The wolf - hunters, tvho, usually USe a live pig as, a bait, get £2 a head Lor their bag from the Russian Government, and as the skins are worth $2,50 a- piece th.ey find theim. sport very pro- fitable. Norway and Sweden pay a similar price for deaclwolves, which exist in groat numbers in the mountains. These countries also pay about $20 each for bears. In Scandinavia a whole village generally combines in a bear hunt, and a kill of four or five a day is not uncommon. India suffers more severeiy from wild a,ninials and reptiles than any other part of the world, in spite of the thickness of its population. The natives are generally too supersti- tious or cowardly to war against the creatures which prey upon them. Last year 25,166 human beings were ' killed by snakes and wild animals, of whom .reptiles accounted for 21,- 901. Over 46,000 cattle were also destroyed. The Indian Government pays re- ward for almost every kind of harm- ful beast or snake. Last year e, to- tal of $32,750, was paid out for the deaths of 19,776 wild animals and 108,885 reptiles, In 1881 • dingoes -the Australian wild dogs -killed sheep to the esti- mated value or $400,000, But the bounty of $2.50 a head has been the eastee of exterminating these. pesti- lent beasts for a long distance from the coast. There are pleuty of them still, however, on Up -country ranches and their destructiveness may be judged by the fact that a single one of these yellow -haired brutes will kill a dozen sheep in a night. But all other oounty grving fades into insignificance compared with the enormous sums spent by New Zea- land and New South Wales in their efforts to cope with the ever-increas- ing plague of rabbits. After vainly endeavoring to fence out the grow- ing hordes, the various Australian Govermnents were forced to offer a bounty for each rabbit killed. • A penny a tail was the usual amount paid. This took effect in New South Wales in 1883, and since then about $5,500.000 has been expended by this government alone. • The slaugh- ter may be imagined by the fact that in one year twenty-seven millions were paid for. The la test animal upon which a Government war has been „declared is the rat. It has been proved cora elusively that rats •carry plague in- fection, so many towns all over the world are offering a penny apiece for rats' tails. Sydney, New South Wales, is one, and Copenhagen an- other. In the latter city the kills of the first three weeks were 6,094, 6,- 616 and 6,780. The number has since' grown to over 10,000 a week, and it is believed that by the end of 1902 rats will be getting scarce in Denmark. GRANARY OF THE EMPIRE.
