The Yankees Are Almost as Fond of Frogs as the French. By the side of the Mississippi, a little instance below St. Louis, is a large tract of country exclusively devoted to the cultivation of frogs. Some years ago an ingenious Ameri- con conceived the idea of cleaning out several acres of swamp -land, inclosing it in a strong wire fence, and preserving the frogs which abounded there. This he did; and he was soon in possession of a huge quantity of these little ani- mals. But his stock was by no means a re- fined quality. They were small, and ex- cessively coarse to the palate. So he journeyed to Paris, and arranged for a supply of French frogs to be sent over. These he turned loose in his froggery, and after a few months the newcomers had almost completely driven the native breed from the grounds. The frogs are Md twice a day, and it is a most_.ludi- enus sight to see thousands of these. frogs, of all sizes, hopping to their ac- customed places at feeding -time. They are caught in nets, and then ' thrown into barrels, the large ones be- ing retained and the under -grown re- turned to the water. After they are frilled, they are strung on strings, a dozen of them going to the bunch, and every morning several thousands -lf them are shipped to their destination, The price fetched' by these frogs aver- ages $L25 a dozen in the season, but they are getting cheaper every year. When they were first introduced, $2.50 and $3 was by no mains an unusual price to pay for a dozen of them. WORKED FOR PENNY AN HOUR. What a London Woman Got on an Army Contract. . The sensational story of Mrs. Thoro- good, the Lambeth woman who told the local guardians that she "finished" Vol- unteers' trousers, supplied to the War Office by a contractor, for payment which averaged less than a penny an hour, was reported to the guardians to be true. The case has been mentioned in the House of Commons, and the Secretary for War has promised to make inquiries about it. Mrs. Thorogood applied to the Lam- beth Guardians for out -relief, on the ground that she was unable to earn a living wage, and told the guardians that she was paid 2%d. for "finishing" each pair of trousers, the work occupy- ing three hours per pair. She had to provide the necessary thread and silk out of the money she earned. - Mr. Fielder, who has investigated the circumstances on behalf of the guar- dians, stated at a meeting of the Board recently .that he had seen a record of the woman's work, and found what she said was correct. He said that for years she had risen et 3 o'clock in the morning, worked un- til 8, and then gone to the factory, where she has been engaged until night. Working all those hours she has only been able to earn between 88. and 9s. a week. TUE CARE OF CHILDREN. Now -a -days wise mothers do not those their children with harsh, griping cas- ter oil or purgatives, nor do they give them poisonous opiates in the form of c -called soothing medicine's.

Hundreds of Thousands of Pounds Went to Contractors by Repurchase. Astounding revelations of army waste, muddle and inefficiency, following on the close of the war in South Africa, by which hundreds of thousands of pounds have been lost to the nation, are made in the report of the Comptroller and Auditor -General on the British army appropriation account for 1904-5. ' At theoutset the Comptroller states that similar cases to those mentioned in his last anneal report have been noticed, in which surplus supplies sold to con- tractors and resold by them to other contractors have been -repurchased from the latter by the "army at considerably enhanced prices. These cases areto be brought under the notice of the Royal Commission now enquiring into the system of sales and repurchases, and therefore he does not consider it desir- able to give details of the cases. The revelations, however, are suffi- ciently remarkable without these details, and a few of the cases are given below. LOSSES 13Y REBATES. Duty-paid supplies, purchased -from the army in the Transvaal by Messrs. Meyer, Limited, were resold to the army in the Orange River Colony, also duty- paid to that colony. A pheque for £2,- 999 Os. Gd. was paid to Messrs. Meyer by the Director of Customs of the Orange River Colony, in January, 1904, as Customs rebate. This cheque, it is stated, should have been paid to army funds, Messrs. Meyer being only en- titled to a rebate from the Transvaal on exportation. Action is being taken to recover the amount due to the army. A contractor for bread supplies in the Orange River Colony received Customs rebates on • the imported flour used to the amount of £955 4s. lid., which should have gone to the army. In ano- ther instance the contractor was allow- ed to import duty free flour which was sold to the army at duty-paid prices. The loss to the army in this case was £1,208 12s. 6d. A double payment of £800 has appear- ently been made to Mr. J. Noreen for cattle captured by him when employed in the Intelligence Department in South Africa. Efforts to recover this sum have proved unsuccessful, and the treas- ury, refusing tee' sanction the extra ex- penditure, have left the responsibility for the transaction to the Army Council. WINE UNDER -PRICED. As many as 68,053 bottles of port wine, stated to be of defective quality, were sold at 15s. a dozen, instead of at the contract sale price of 26s. This transaction is one of the most remark- able recorded. It appears that certain contractors purchased the whole of the port at .Pre- toria and Maitland for 26 shillings a dozen. Then they produced expert opinion as to defective quality of un- labeled bottles, and on September 3, 1903, offered the lower rate of 15s. a dozen for such wino. Their offer was not then accepted, and they were instructed to return the wine to Pretoria. On September 10 the General Officer Commanding in South Africa cabled to the War Office for authority to sell 1,200 cases of so-called port wine of a very' low grade, for which he had an offer of 15s. a dozen in Johannesburg, and stated that he was 'having the wine analyzed and inquiries made as to its source of supply. The War Office cabled approval, and on the following day the contractors were informed that their offer of Sep- tember 3 was accepted, although the re- port of the analyst had not then been received. This report, dated October 7, stated that the wine was genuine port and fit for hospital use. It has since been ascertained that the wine had been sent out from Wood- wich, where It had been passed by ap- proved trade experts, and it is stated to have been superior to that used in civil hospitals in London. ORDERS IGNORED. • Thus, though the War Office had only given «ormission for 1,200 cases, or 12,- 000 bottles, to be sold at the lower price, the whole 68,953 bottles were actually sold at that price. The War Office, moreover, were not aware that the offer of 15s. a dozen came from the contrac- tors who had already agreed to pay 26s. for the identical wine. Under the heading of sales that rea- lized less than the amount of special customs ,levied some extraordinary transactions are revealed. For instance, £2,549 14s. was paid In duty on tobacco which was sold for £7708 13s. 4d. The loss to Ilse army was therefore £1,841 Os. 8d. The following are. some further examples: Jam, duty paid, £5,054 5s. 4d.; sale value, £4,642 16s. 16d.; loss to army, £411 8s. 10d. Port, duty paid, £4,59G 16s. Od.; sale value, £4,007 17s. lOcan loss to army, £588 18s. 2d. Chillies, £16 Os. 6d.; sale value, £4 Os. 2d.; Ioss to army, £12 Os. 4d. In the report of the comptroller on the store'acounts of the army it is announc- ed that all the emergency rations at stations at home and abroad have been condemned, and are to -be raestreyed. The total number is 300,000 at tannic, and 5 000 at stati about 0 ons abroad, the , a original cost being about £'23,000. They have been in store more than three years. HIS NATURAL BENT.

Cassidy, of Ottawa, Perman- ently Cured After Years of Suffering by the Great Canadian Kidney lternedy Ottawa, Ont., March 2G. (Special).- While all Canada knows that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the standard remedy for all Kidney Complaints, it may surprise some people to know they cure such ex- treme cases as Stone in the Kidneys. Yet this is what they have done right here in Ottawa. _- Mr. A, S. Cassidy, the man cured, is. the well-known proprietor of the Bijou Hotel on Metcalf Street, and in an inter- view he says : "My friends all know that I have been a martyr to Stone in the Kidneys for years. They know that besides consulting the best doctors in the city and trying every medicine I could think of, I was unable to get bet- ter. "Some time ago a friend told me Dodd's Kidney Pills would cure me, As a Iast resort I tried thele, and they have. cured me. "I could not imagine more severesuf- fering than one endures who has Stone in the lCidneys, and I feel the greatest gratitude to Dodd's Kidney Pills." If the disease is of the Kidneys or from the Kidneys, Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure it. DOUBT IT?

Mr. Wiseun wandered about the circus grounds and came upon a group of small boys who were looking enviously upon the sides of the big tent. "Why don't you go in, boys?" f_e asked. "Got no money," explained the biggest boy. "Huh! Boys now -a -days haven't In- genuity. Why, when I was a boy 1 nev- er missed a circus, and I never had a penny, either." The boys stared admiringly. "Want to see how it was worked when I was a boy?" he asked, a brilliant no- tion coming to him. "Yes," came the reply in chorus. Mr. Wiseun looked cautiously, about, then crept up to the tent, raised the bot- tom of the canvas, and crawled careful.. ly under it. The boys gasped in admir- ation of his, daring,, when from the in- terior came a succession of whacking sounds and a series of shouts, accom- panied by frenzied bulgings of the can- vas. "Oh -h!" yelled one of the boys. "The elephant must 'a got him." Sudcleniy'the Canvas was lifted, and Mr. Wiseun was propelled head first into the midst of the group of boys. A red-faced tent hand poked his head out and commanded him with sundry strange murmurings to depart. Mr. Wiseun picked himself up and was r, limping mp n� away, when a freckled boy meekly inquired: "Is that the way you had to come out, of the circus, too, when you were .a boy?" But Mr. Wiseun was hobbling off the grounds, making heated remarks about the leek of respect in the modern 'small boy, and the general 'unkindness of sir- eus folks. TURKISH PIGTAILS.

There has just died at the hospital of Ueberlingen, on the borders of Lalce Constance, in Switzerland, a stone man. His name was Brend. He was afflicted with the very rare disease• known as "myositis ossificans." The extraordinary feature of this disease is that ossification gradually sets in all the muscles and tissues of the body, the disease invariably ending in death. Brend was 66 years of age. He was the son of a well-to-do farmer of Baden-Baden. He was first afflicted with the disease at the age of 17. His feet first became hard and almost as heavy as stone. Gradually the dread disease rose and ultimately reached his chest, hardening the lungs. ftp. to a few years ago Brend was able to read and write, but he had to give up this occupation when his arms and legs be- came afflicted and he was no longer able to move then). The tissues of his throat were petrified but he was able to speak, though his voice assumed a curious metallic sound. Although obliged to remain riveted to a sofa chair, he always displayed the best of humor and was fond of making jokes. He was known throughout the district as the petrified man. 'The petrification ended by reaching the brain, and • Brend has just died, after nearly fifty years of suffering.

Generald ly each meal or lunch was followed Ly distressing pains and burning sensations in my stomach, which desl,royed my sleep and almost unfitted me for work. My brain was so muddy and foggy that u was hard for me to discharge my duties properly.
