Bad Year for Sealing.
Sealing in 1907, according to a note by
T. Southwell in the Zoologist, wag, owing
to bad weather and the heavy ice -pack,
nearly as bad as in 1905, which was the
worst since 1898. Two of the fleet of 24
vessels were wreeked,and the number
of skins secured by the others fell short
of last year's total by close on 100,000,
with a decrease of rather more than
$30,000 in money value. The total num-
ber of seals killed was just over 245,000,
the market price being $4,20 per hun-
dredweight for those of young animals
and $3.00 for those of adults.

Sweet areas Candle Shades,
For the summer cottage straw candle
and lamp shades will be found satisfee-
tory and economical.. They shed a
chumming sight through the woven
otrande of sweet grass, of which they
are made, and they are both inexporusive
and long lived. The grass used in weav-
ing diem is the same seen in the (hna-
dian basket*, which possess such a deli-
cate and delicious odor.
The pieces of grass are woven round
and round the shade, which is shaped
either with a circular base or one in
hem:goiral loam. From there the shade
elopes gradually, and it has a narrow
upstanding finish at the top. The seams
are made by weaving in a eoarser grates,
and at the top and bottom edge a thick-
er kind, and one of a darker shade of
green, gives a pretty and substantial rim.
'There is no striking' color in these
shades, the grasses blending pale yellow
and light green tonesin such a way that
the general effect is neither the one nor
the other color, For this reason sweet
grass shades can be used in any dining
room. Their freshness makes them par-
tioularly attractive for summer use.
T1oy are offered in several sizes ranging
from the small candle shade to the Larg-
er ones intended to cover au electric
light,
When soiled or dusty all they require
is a careful wiping orf with a damp cloth,

The Drug Habit.
In a Massachusetts town the other
day a number of youths were gathered
in by the police who were having a "co-
caine party." It is said that the use of
this drug in saloons is becoming more
and more common on the other aide of
the line, where It can be obtained as
readily as whisky. Its use is more fatal
than any alcoholic beverage, as it leaves
its victim a moral ae well as a physical
wreck in a short time. In this country
a business of this kind could hardly be
done openly. Nevertheless it is said
that numbers of young women as well
as young men are being initiated into
the seductive mysteries of the syringe.

ous :effort to stamp out this insidious
evil and bring to book those who are
