For according to the British Medical Journal published in London the day before yesterday the incomes of English doctors have fallen off 25 per cent. within the last six years. Among the causes of this decrease in income are the disappearance of the epidemic of influenza and other sicknesses and the decrease of winter ailments, attribut- able to the mildness of recent winters. But it would be more honorable to the distia- guished profession to attribute the decline to the improved sanitary arrangements, or- ganized for the most part by the medical profession, and also fur the increased under- standing regarding the condition of health which has been brought about entirely by the study of medical science.

AT DRUGGISTS AND 025105* EVERYWNER.. e Floor Used for a Table. There are neither chairs, beds, nor in our sense, tables, in Japanese dwellings, for in these the people live, so to speak, upon the floor. They take their meals from trays placed upon the floor; they sleep on it, and during the day they ei- ther lie stretched out upon it or sit up- on their heels in a crouched position, which seems awkward and is quickly painful to those foreigners who make their initiative attempts at it. This gen- eral use of the floor for living purposes enables the Japanese to do without the greater part of the furniture with which our western dwellings are filled, and it alos accounts for the invariable rule of removing one's shoes when entering a Japanese house. The Japanese ordinarily wear either straw sandals or wooden doge, the lat- ter almost always in welt weather, when they think it desirable to have the soles of their feet 'raised two or three inches above the wet ground. Both of these are held to the foot by a band which, after passing between the great and the second toe, divides and goes over the arch of the foot. By pract'iee the scandal or clog can be held by this means about as securely to the foot as it would be if laced, with this—to the Japaneses—great advantage, that it can be immediately and without trouble put off wheal going into a house and put on when leaving. One can generally tell how many peo- ple there are in a Japanese house by counting up the number of sandals and clogs there are lying in the little ground spar'e between the inner and outer .par- titions --Cor• Boston Herald.

There is a true story of one young woman who had devoted. almost a year to pulling wires and using all possible influence to gain an interview with a certain theatrical manager. At last her hopes were reaiiced; she got her ap- pointment and she was finally -ushered into the manager's private office. He received her most cordially and offered her a chair, "Thank you," she said, gratefully. "I think I will sit down. I've been ,just ten months getting 'here and I'm a Iittle tired."

PITTSi3URG NOW IS SIXTH. Nieves Up in the List of Big Cities by Consolidation. By a,' Majority of more than 25,000 Pittsburg and Allegheny decided to cease their separate existences on Tuesday and become one Municipality, under the name of the Fenster city, Ever since 1854 the people of Pittsburg have tried to bring about this' state of affairs, but have al. ways been prevented by the people of Allegheny, Even now some Allegheny people will try to get the Supreme Court of the United States to declare unconstitutional the act of the Legislature which permit- tee the vote. A public defence commit- tee has 'been organised in Allegheny with unliinited money backing for the purpose of fighting consolid propation, Pittsburg now takes its el place among the great cities of the country. It is the sixth largest city in the country in population, first in the country as well as in the whole world in tonnage, fifth in bank clearings and fourth in assessed valua- tion. By the consolidation with Allegheny Pittsburg passes Baltimore, Cleveland, Buffalo, Safi, Francisco and Cincinnati. Baltimore may contest the right of Pitts- burg to sixth place on acount of the spurt it has taken since the fire. The 1900 census gi^es Baltimore a total pop- ulation of 508 ,07. 7. The most conserva- tive estimate of the new Pittsburg's pop- ulation is S23,00+), while some people be- lieve it to. (be_.50,000• Pittsburg and Baltimore are growing very rapidly, and it is a question which will have the greater population in 1910. St. Louis and Boston are hovering about the 000.000 mark, and there is a possi- bility of Pittsburg's forging ahead of both. With the present enormous de- mand for iron and steel products it is believed that Pittsburg will grow at a more rapid rate during the next few years than any other city in the United States. In creating the Greater Pittsburg no attempt was made to take in a great area of territory, as was the case with Greater Philadelphia, Greater New York and Greater Chicago. Only the city of Allegheny was annexed. There are still in Allegheny county, in which PittSbi rr :s situated, and all with- in ten miles of ti.e city limits, the follow- ing ncunieipalit.i'': McKeesport, popu- lation 37,000; Braddock, population, 17: 500 ; k.Iow Will last real] disci T tows tota whin n,um in t• 850, < 00, ,•"w'o;t, Id ran,. the city foto th iu sine tee country, With only Neu York,'.

Once a week a thorough sweeping is necessary to brush out tate grit and dust from the nap of a velvet or Wilton. or from the close weave of a body Brus- sels or an Ingrain. In sweeping take a stiff broom and brush with the weave, After the first dirt is removed sprinkle over the car- pet or rug damp tea leaves. Leave them for fifteen or thirty minutes and then brush up lightly, and the brightness of the colors will make the floor covering look 'almost like new. Dampened pieces of paper spread over a carpet will have the same effect on the colors, for the dampness seems to take up loose dirt that a broom or a sweeper cannot catch. Salt sprinkled over the carpet before sweeping is often resorted to, though while it does brighten the colors there is always the danger of the salt that re- mains in the nap rusting the chair and furniture casters, particularly if there is much dampness about the house.—New York Telegram.
