There is an old theory that if John Smith owns in fee simple a farm or a city lot of • certain superficial dimensions, he also owns the soil and rock beneath in a direct line be- low all and every part of it, though dimin- ishing to a point downward to the exact centre of the earth. If there are voids or vacant spaces within these subterranean bounds he owns these also. And he also • owns the open space above his lot, upward to the very heavens, so that no man king , or kaiser, may undermine or oversliadow him, save by his own ',toper permission, duly signified and given. Not less exten- . sive and inalienable, are the rights of cor- , porations, so that the city which • owns its streets is also possessed of like pro- perty in the depths beneath and in the ' heights above. -This much premised, it is to , be observed that in many modern cities sundry owners of lots, buildings and proper- ties fronting on the streets, have made, or -caused to be made, excavations beneath the a streets or sidewalks, for the purpose of lighting or storage or other uses. Just now there is much interest in. these under -street - excavations in the city of .Chicago. The - civic government of that city have concluded that all occupiers of roomsavaults, or spaces „V- *beneath the public streets, squares and • wharves must hereafter pay rent to the • city for the same. And now that Chicago has set the pace there appears a disposition on the part of other smart towns and vil- • lages to keep it up.—St. John Tele.graph. Alcohol and the Brain. Dr. Norman Kerr, at the late annual meeting of the British Women's Temper- ance Home, held in London, gave an address upon inebriety among women, in which he said : "The reason I have insisted so . strongly on the physical part of the ques- tion is that, in making observations on dead bodies, I have constantly founclin the skulls of those who drank •certain condinions. Now, the brain is a set of thinking cells, aset in a tough frame -work or tissue. All , goes well as long as these two kinds of tissue • —the outward envelope and the inward • contents—are in proper proportion to each • other and to the size of the skull. Alcohol, •, however, has the effect of thickening the binding and connecting tissues, thereby • diminishing the space allotted to the think- ing cells, so that they shrink and become unable to do their work. Thus, if you come from a port -wine, or champagne, or still • -worse, a beer -drinking ancestry, you do not possess the conditions of brain which God intended you to have; and the result can not be modified at once, though in course of time it may be done. I do not care in whoa a shape spirit is used, the effect is the same." Dow to Shave Easily. The moment you •get out of bed is the • best thne. Your beard will never be so pliable after you are around awhile. First wash your beard well with soap and cold -water. Rain water is better, of course. Then apply lather plentifully and cold as a - ,rule. But if your razor is cold close it and • place it in your pocket or under your arm till it gets warm. Like other edged tools the razor is only a very fine saw, and there- , fore it is better to move it a little endways tas you shave rather than with a straight, broad sweep. If you always shave in one direction around your face the beard will • soon get a permanent "cant" in that direc- tion, the effect of which is—well, a matter • of taste.—Rochelle ( Ill. ) Journal.

Charged With llin bealleniellah Takes roisoo• A ',Parente report says : Henry Hanbury, the unfortunate young Englishman who was involved in a charge of embezzling money froin Charles Brown, the livayetable Malsz was found dead in his rooin at 168 King street weft yesterday. Hanbury had been sent up for trial, and he took his disgrace very keenly. He paid, very little to anyone about it. It would seem, however, that on Monday night he had made up his mind to end his life. He spent a portion of the evening in writing letters and on Tuesday morning he started down town. That was the last seen of him by his wife. She looked for him on Tuesday evening, but could not make out yhat happened, and sat up and waited for him but he came not. Yester- day she came down town and made a search for him, but he had not been seen at any of his accustomed haunts, and she began to fear that he had done away with himsela Ho,nbury had, it appears, rented a room down town from Mr. Laces, the veterinary surgeon on King street west, where he had luggage stored, and something impelled some of his friends to looks for him there. Through a window they saw hitn lying on his back on a couch. The door was broken in, and he was found dead. A bottle labelled laudanum and another chloral told the story of suicide. Between his fingers was a half -smoked cigarette. Ap- parently the unfortunate man sat down on the couch, drank the poisons, and started to smoke a cigarette and wait for death to come. It came before he had finished the cigarette. A little bloody froth at the mouth alone showed that there had been any internal struggle. The bottles were 1111, Raley's drug store, Oshawa. In the pockets of the dead man were found a number of letters, one to Mr. Barnes, his solicitor, one to his wife, another to a sister hi Australia, and one to Mr. Stone, the undertaker. Mrs. Hamburg was completely broken down, and Wept as if her heart would break. She read the letter, in which her husband apoke to her in the most en- dearing terms, and said that the disgrace of hie arrest was more than he could hear, Detective John Cuddy was on the scene a few minutes after the affair became known, and he telephoned Coroner Pickering. When Dr. Pickering had examined the letters and viewed the body he decided that an in- quest was unnecessary. Coroner Pickering then took the letters to the parties to whom they were addressed. Fattening Lambs for the British Market. Sut,—A bulletin recently issued by: the Agricultural Department of this experiment station on the " Fattening of lambs for the British market" has been given to the press and has, generally speaking, received favor- able notice from the same. I believe that our farmers generally are agreed that the experiment bears upon an important sub- ject, and that all patriotic citizens will feel desirous that the experiment may demon- strate to our people that a large and profit- able trade in grade lambs with Great Britain is one of the possibilities of the near future. In preparing the bulletins, there is a manifest necessity for conciseness and brevity of statement. Because of this, ex- planations which are in themselves of no little importance have to be ommitted ; hence, there is some clanger that the readers of these bulletins may not clearly under- stand the reasons for the conclusions arrived at. Since the bulletin on fattening lambs treats of an unusually important subject, with your permission, Mr. Editor, I will now add to what has been said therein. I desire to emphasize the fact that the lambs selected for this experiment were inferior to the average grade lambs of Ontario. Farmers who saw them in the early part of the season were somewhat inclined to poke fun at us for attempting to fatten lambs so far below the average for the British market. The fact here stated is evident from the weight of the lambs at the commencement of the experiment. On October 24th, 1890, they weighed but 84.85 lbs., after they had been feeding upon rape for nearly a month. The farmers generally will know that the average grade lambs of Western and Central Ontario will weigh 100 lbs. each at that season, especially after having fed upon rape for three or four weeks. Lambs below the average of our Ontario product were, in a sense purposely chosen, for the reason; nrst, that better lambs were dif- ficult to get at the time, and, second, that it is never wise in a first experiment to ahn at doing so well that equal results are not easily obtained in a future experiment. That the English buyers pronounced them one of the best lots of lambs ever sent from Canada to England is indeed a high compli raent to our experimental station, and more especially to the skill and care of Mr. Elliott and Mr. Cuppage'who in successida, took care of the lambs. It is also encourag- ng to those who may embark in the enter- prise with a better lot of lambs. The next point I would emphasize is the substantial profit:virtually reaped from the experiment. It is true that if the manure is not taken in account at all, and the cost of the transportation is reckoned at $4.17 per head, there is an actual loss of $14.43. If the manure is not taken into account, and the cost of transportation is reckoned at $2.75 per head, which is a full average, then the net gain on the 90 lambs is $113.28. If the manure is included, as in the bulletin, then the net profit is $236.13 or a gain of 23.72 per cent. on the investment. Now which of these modes of reckoning will fair-minded men adopt? Will it not be the last? The whole tranoaction was carried on on a purely business basis up till the time of transportation. After that time extra cost was a necessity in order to get the results. In the first place, the lot was insufficient for a full cargo. Then the feeder for this small lot had to be specially employed. The fees of a commission mer- chant added largely to the expense; and the facts relating to their behavior on the voyage and in the sale yards could licit be obtained without further expense. BecZuse of these things 1 hold that it is fair to put the expense of transit at $2.75 per head, the average cost, rather than $4.10, the actual cost. It is thus - apparent that the true profit on the laanbs was at least $11328, Lo this all fair-minded men will conceed that the value of the manure should be added, whatever that may be. To value manure correctly in the present state of our •knowledge is not clay,if itideed it is possi- hie. Some time, and in the near future, we will be able to 'do this with mach more ease and precision, when additional data shall have accumulated on which to base calculations. In this experiment we reckoned the value of the manure at 2 cents per day for lamb. This macula- tion is based on,clata furnished by an ex- perimmit conducted by Professor Robeets, of Cornell University Experiment Station. Professor Roberts is a most careful investi- gator, By the use of shallow pans made for the purpose and placed in the pone, he ob- tained with great .precision the exact amount of minim obtained from lambs in is given time. This was carefully analysed. it was found to be very rich indeed in plant food. In placing, an estimate upon it, he valued ita Ingredients, isa given by the analysis, on the basis of the Values of the same, as sold in conlmercial fertilizere. This gave a value to the manure made by 0410 lamb per day at la cents. Lest the values put upoo rlitrogent phosphoric acid ancl potash in that country should be too dear to apply to our condi- tions, we cut the estimate down one-half, and valued the manure front one lareb per day at three.quarter cents. At ordioarily Wintered, the manure made by lambs would not probably be worth much more thanlialf this sum. As the estimate now ;stands in the bulletin, the value of the manure is but little more than the cash profit made upon the lambs. It. is certainly an excellent showing in any fattening venture when a cash profit can be shown which nearly equals in value the worth of the manure. But suppose our estimate should be still looked upon as too high, and that dividewe it by two, we have as the profit on 90 lambs $113.2$ plus $61.42, or a ttet • profit of $174.70, which amounts to nearly $2 per head. It may be that the average farmer cannot do quite so well, indeed it is probable that such is the case. Were it otherwise, we would no more be worthy of recognition as teachers of the people. Sub there is certainly nothing to hinder the average farmer who rears his own lambs to turn them off in early spring to go to the British market at an average cash value to him of $8 to 9 per head ; and if so, it will be clearly apparent to him there is profit in the bueiness. If but one-fourtlt of the farmers in Ontario were to rear and fatten but ten to twelve lambs in a year, we would have 500,000 lambs ready for market during the winter season and $4,000,000 to $5,000,000 annually would be added to the revenues+ of the country. Some of these would find a market at home, some would go to the United States, and some to Great Britain. Bet the dangerous shoal of marketing lambs in November slioulclbc 'nest carefully shunned. I have already said in effect that the; bbh uncertain quantity in estimating values in experimental work is the estimate to be put upon the manure. It is certainly worth something, or the practice of those who cart it into rivers is to be praised. It is cer- tainly worth much, or the manufacturers of commercial fertilizers are at the wrong busi- ness. But to estimate a.pproximately how much it is worth is not easy. The difficulty arises principally from Our ignorance re- garding the quantity made by animals of different classes and ages. We are hard at work in the endeavor to remove this difficulty, and hope soon to calculate all ex- perhnents from data furnished from actual experience in our own work. We are now able to tell from actual test hoar much manure a cattle beast will make under cer- tain conditions up to the age of one year, and soon hope to be able to give the same up to the age of two years. This informa- tion, I think I am safe in saying, has never been given to the world before. THOS. SHAW. Ont. Ag. College, s Guelph, Nov. 24th, 1891. f Bung Up in a Saloon. Acton Free Press : While in Elora recentlat a Free Press representative put up at.oiae of the hotels and noticed, neatly 1ml-it& and hanging in a conspicuous place in the sitting room, a card bearing the fol- lowing exhortation: SWEAR NOT AT ALL. To take God's holy name in vain. Oh mortal, 'tis a dire disgrace By which you break his holy law, And fling defiance in his face. It shocks the soul to hear tinniest Supreme, Rudely appealed to on each trifling theme, Maintain .your rank; vulgarity despise. To swear is neither brave, polite nor wise, You would not swear upon the bed of death; Reflect !. your Maker. -now could stop your breath. Swear not at all. It was a curious place indeed to find suela a sentiment so publicly proclaimed. The advice is sound and we reproduce it.

The French population returns for 1890 show an excess of deaths over births, namely, 876,000 against 838,000. eA similar excess occurred in 1854-55, owing to the cholera and the Crimean War, and again in 1870-1 owing to the Franco- German war. One ot the causes last year seems to have been the influenza, for the mortality was 81,000 above the previous year, but the births fell off by 42,000 last year, being lower than in any year since 1870. The marriages are decreasing about 1 per cent. and the divorces in 1889 Were 4,786 and in 1890 5,457. To Make a Target Out of Caoada. Detroit News : Gen.

A whole regiment of troops here will be another thing to tickle our vanity, a regi- mental band, an artillery corps and a squad of well-groomed officers being always is valuable addition to the prestigeof an ambi- tious city.
