Others were seated at a cafe and some were working in a leisurely manner carrying bricks for the con- struebion, of a new building. To his astonishment the correspondent found that the men were convicts from the cantonal prison close by. These convicts are permitted to leavethe prison early in the morn- ing and find work around Sarnen or walk about the country until nightfall, when they returnof their own ,accord to the prison. They are unaccompanied by ward- ers and there is nothing to prevent their escaping, but they are far far too comfortable to think of relinquishing their quarters, for they have as much liberty as other men and are, moreover, fed and lodged for nothing. The money earned by these con- victs who choose to work can be spent as they like. One convict who is employed as a gardener by a local Magistrate sends his month- ly salary to his wife and cbildron. Two or three convicts "camped" some time ago, but they eventually returned to the prison in a half famished condition and after being severely ' reprimanded they . were allowed to return to their apart- ments.

PAPER FROM MANY T1t1NGSt. And a Witl0 Variety of Articles Made from Paper. ' The London Daily Chronicle of recent date contains the following: For the first time sines its forma- tion the Court of Criminal Appeal the other day exercised its preroga- itve and increased the term of a prisoner's sentence. The man- before the court was William Simpson, who fired five shots at a gentleman travelling on the Metropolitan Railway between Baker street and St. John's Wood. For this crime Simpson was re-eent- ly sentenced to twelve years' pen- al servitude, on a charge of attempt- ed murder, and against his sen- tence he appealed. The Lord Chiet Justice warned him that the court had the power and mightsee fit to increase the sentence which had already been passed upoh him, heavy though' it was. Simpson said he would pro- ceed with the appeal. After hearing the case the Lord Chief Justice said that having re- gard to the nature of the crime, the only too obvious premeditation, and the deliberation with which it was carried through, the court came tb the conclusion that the sentence. was not severe enough.` Therefore it would be increased from twelve to fifteen years' penal servitude.

Berlin has made' an attempt to snake artificial brinks with wood pulp and zine sulphate. After .sub- jecting them to an enormously high pressure they aro baked for forty- eight hours. Those have been used for paving streets. In similar fash- ion roofing tiles and water pipes are being made. Telegraph poles of rolled sheets of paper are hol- low, lighter than wood and resist the weather well. In Japan the following are made of paper i Clothing, window frames, lanterns, umbrellas, handkerchiefs, artificial leather, etc. In the United States and Ger- many are made paper barrels, vases and milk bottles. Straw hats may now be bought into which enters not an atom of straw. They are made of narrow paper strips, dyed yellow. Artificial sponges are made of cellulose,, orpaper pulp. The use of paper in industry may be idnefinitely extended. It is em- ployed to make imitation porcelain, for boats, for bullets, shoes, billi- ard table cloths, sails for boats, boards for building, impermeable bags for cement and powdered sub- stances, boat's and water vessels. There has even beenmade a paper stove, which is said to have stood the test well. Cellulose may be used to prepare a:' waterproof coat- ing that may applied like paint. Whole houses in Norway have been built of paper as well as in other countries; in Norway, too, is a church holding 1,000 persons, built entirely of paper, .even to the bel- fry. Five Reagens 'Why House Owners Should Not Choose Spring. The Paint Manufacturers Asso- ciation sciation of the United „ States has prepared five reasous for having painting done in the fall : 1.. In the fall the surface is thor- oughly dry. During the spring a surface, which needs repainting is sure to contain moisture and damp- ness or frost, and it cannot be suc- cessfully painted until it has thor- oughly dried out. 2. When the wood is dry it ab- sorbs more- of the paint ; the paint penetrates deeper into the wood, therefore gets a firmer hold on it. 3. Paint cannot be asuccess- fully fully applied in -damp, cloudy unsettled weather as in warm, sun- ny weather. In the fall the weath- er is more 'settled and uniform and generally warmer; therefore it is an excellent time for painting. 4. A house needs its protecting coat of paint more in the winter months than at any other time. A house in need of painting should never be allowed to go over the winter without this protection: 5.. It is easier to keep the wint- er's moisture and dampness out by applying a coat of paint in the fall, when the surface is dry and receiv- es the oil and pigment so as to protect the surface. These reasons. apply as properly to metal work, whether roof, con- ductors, cave.troughs or flashings, as they do to wood work;. SUICIDE IN RUSSIA. s Appallingly .

In Japan fireflies are an adjunct to all grades of festivity from the private garden parties of nobles to an evening at a cheap tea garden, Sometimes they are kept caged, sometimes released in swarms in. the presence of 'guests. To supply this demand, there are a number of firms in Japan employing men to catch the fireflies, ,At sunset the firefly hunter starts forth with a long bamboo pole and a bag of mosquito netting. On reaching a suitable growth of wil- lows near water he makes ready his net and strikes the insects with his pole. This jars them to the ground, where they are easily gathered up. But this must be done very rapid- ly before they recover themselves enough to fly. So the skilled catch- er, sparing no time to put them at once into the bag, uses both hands to pick them up and tosses them lightly into his apron, where he holds them .unharmed till he can hold no more, and only then does he he transfer them to the bag. His work lasts till about two o'clock in the morning, when the insects leave the trees for the dewy soil. He then changes his method. He brushes the surface of the ground with a light broom to startle the insects into light; then he gathers them as before. An expert has been known to gather three thousand in one night. Besides being a .business, firefly catching is a sport in Japan. Little girls pursue the insects with their fans, boys with wands to which 'a wisp of yarn is fastened, and they sing an old rhyme as they follow the glistening insects. Nor do their elders disdain to join the sport. They organize festival parties to visit pertain spots long known and famous to witness the beautiful spectacle of the fireflies swarming. DRINKS DISPLACE WHISKEY. NO OLOCK-WATCHER. How many clerks measure up to the standard of the young book- keeper in this story.

He glanced about him, and then approached the young bookkeeper. "What time is it?" he asked. • The young man kept- on figuring, and the boss put a hand on his desk and repeated the question. Instantly the .other looked up, surprised to see the chief at his elbow. "I beg veer pardon, were you speaking to me? he asked, "Merely inquired the time -that was all," said the other. The bookkeeper glanced about the room, located the office clock, and said, "It's ten minutes to twelve." • "Thtutk you, s aid the, general manager and vice-president, and strolled OUT, That conversation cost the young bookkeeper his place—in the pas- senger department—and put him under a higher officer, "on the fir- ing. lino."

IAlI 111 AFRICAN WILDS CA.JIRIED BY AEROPLANES IN NORTHERN AFRICA. --fie BLOODLESS SURGERY. Maio Possible by a Newly Discov- ered Method. Dr. F. Nageischmidt of Berlin, Germany, has just demonstrated be- fore the Electro -Therapeutic` section of the Royal Society of Medicine his discovery of a method of performing. surgical operations without shed- ding blood by employing a distinct modification of ordinary high fre- quency electricity. In Dr. Nagel- scltmidt''s apparatus, which gives a greater current than the high fre- quency apparatus, but with a lower frequency, two wires lead from the generator 'to electrodes placed on each side of the part to be operated on, and on the application of the current the flow of blood in the re- gion between the electrodes is stop- ped bythe coagulation of the albu- men in the blood and tissue. The area of coagulation eau' be widened or narrowed by using broader or narrower electrodes. Dr. Nagel- schmidt believes the method will be particularly useful in dealing with large surface cancers especi- ally the type' called "en cuirasse." He has successfully operated on three or four cancers, and has also removed tonsils without loss of blood. There is, however. difficulty and, except in very skilled hands, dan- ger in the operation, because there is some risk of the blood coagulat- ing in the large veins in the area between- the electrodes, thereby forming clots. This elidieulty is met by the application of vaselino ointment, containing 2 per cent. of pyrogallic acid which retards the otherwise too rapid healing, the re - snit of which would not only mean the encouragement of slatting, but the creation of redundant proud flesh and ugly scarring. If this is properly guarded against, the me- thod is deolarcelto be an enormous advance on any existing as obviat- ing shock from loss of blood. HELPS TRADE.

What Tax Collectors Tell of Eng. land's Changing Tastes. This is the tea and cocoa age in Britain. More than a third less alcohol, especially whiskey, is drunk. Less coffee, more tea and cocoa, more tobacco, more card playing, more dogs, more men -ser- vants (due to the chauffeur), more pawnbrokers, fewer armorial' bear- ings, aro some of the curious facts brought out in the report of the commissioners of customs and ex- cise. Of all sorts of alcoholic drinks the country now .consumes 23� gallons for each inhabitant in a year. Ten years ago the amount was thirty- three gallons per head. In the use of tea, coffee and cocoa, combined, there is a slight increase in ten' years, the same with tobacco. The tax on playing cards now yields $145,000 a year, showing a thirty per cent. increase. There are 4,- 000 fewerpublicans, but 37,000 more tobacconists, than when the cen- tury began, 24,000 moremen ser- vants, and 360,000 more dogs, the exact number of canines, accord- ing to the tax reports, being 1,820,- 841. 1,500 MILES. From Algiers to Timbuctoo on the Sahara border is 1,500 miles. Along the first part of this route there aro, several populous oases. By covering Tuau,-Tidikelt and the valley of Saoura, relay stations would be available, except in the last strip of desert area. If the eastward route is chosen, it runs over a mountainous Sahara, with a fair population and some water sup- plies in the valleys till within 950 miles of Timbuctoo. After that there is no life, water or safe land- ing place. From the jump off at the last haunt of man, right along to Timbuctoo, the aviator would have for the present to grit his teeth and keep aloft. or run an awful chance of a desert death. Later on, no doubt, ingenuity would have to devise artificial relay stations. And often in this region sand clouds are fanned by the storms to a height of a thousand feet or so. Above that the aeroplane must fly or the driver would be blinded and his machine clogged with sand. Down by the Niger valley the, wel- come green of vegetation reappears again but so tall is the grass that in cases of forced descent it is li- able iable to tangle up with the aero- plane in a way that will hinder a fresh start. Success usually manages to dodge a man who is afraid of doing a lit- tle more than his share. F,VOLUTION OF LISBON'.

If, instead of this route, a west- ward line is chosen, six or seven hundred mike of arid, shifting sand will have to be traversed, an ly _ .. in spots is it hard enough to permit of starting again if a landing has to be made. Still another route might be outlined, further east, along a regular chain of oases and hamlets, set in high and rugged hills that make landings perilous. But as this route is best provided with water and supplies it is Likely that the first adventure of the enter- prise will be made that way. At Colofb-Beehar, on the north- ern herder of the desert, the first aviation •station will be built. The actual accomplishment of the scheme is not vet. It will be sever- al months before the first experi- ments xperistents are made. But seems that an aeroplane could cover the distance in four days, while at present it takes over a hundred days, the scheme, is bound to mature in time.
