INTERESTING FACTS. The skylark and woodlark are among the ealj toirds which sing as they fly. In Arabia is a plant which has all the pro- perties o-f laughing gas. The plant is kaown focallv as *fhe laughing plant." The Chinese detective force is a secret bcdy. and the best organised in the world. They itave an eye upon every man. woman, and child, foreign or native, in China, and, in addition, watch over each other. In wild parts of Southern Africa geranium! grow in great bunches of five or six feet in diameter in the most brilliant shades of pink and scarlet. A creeping ivy-leafed geranium, and the pelargonium also, are native to that part of the world. When flocks of wild ducks and geese have te go long distances they form a triangle to cleave the air more easily, and the most courageous bird takes position At the forward angle. As this is a very fatiguirrg post, another bird ere long takes the place of the exhausted leader. FOR THE SCARECROW. Gentleman Farmer (to his gardener): "Will you have one of my old hats to make 3, scare- crow with?" Gardener: "If it's all the same to you, sir, I'd rather have one of the missus's. It would scare 'em more!" -+-- I ♦ WHY WE THINK SO. We think so because all other people tlhink so; Or because-or because—after all, we &o think so; Or because we were told so. and think we must think so: Or because we once thought so, and think we still think so: Or because, having thought so, we think we will think so. -+- A QUAINT SPECTACLE. Can you imagine a quainter, a more charming sight than a host of babies, none over two years old. swimming like fih in pools of clear sea water? You will see this sight in Samoa. Samoan women believe sea baths benefits babies, and in that equable climate they bathe their little one daily the vear round. The youngsters soon learn to swim. They can swim before they can walk. And to see these pretty brown babies 3wimming in the sea is well worth a trip to Samoa. --+-- SORROW OF IT. More trouble." sighed Murphy, putting ojl his coat. If it a}n't one thing it's another." What's the matter now?" oueried his good wife. More labour troubles," answered Murphy. "Not another lockout, I hope," said the part- ner of his sorrows. No. it's worse than that," answered tha alleged head of the house. "'The boss has yielded, and I've got to go to work again!" A TEST. "Porter!" Thus the passenger for London hailed a rail- way servant at a small Scottish station. Yessir?" The man instinctively held out his hand. Do you tli i-ik this parcel well enough tied to trust going in the van?" Weel. I'll see." answered the porter, drop- ping the parcel with a bang. She'll get that here, an' she'll get that at the junction "—giving it another drop—" and <:hp'll get that at Pertil —banging it so lustily that all the contents scattered over the pavement. W eel, sir. if she be goin' farther than Perth she'll nae do what- ever I" • HOW APPLES BREATHE. A startling discoverv has been made by Pro- fessor F. W. Morse, the director of a scientific experiment station in New Hampshire. He finely that apples aetually breathe. When in storage they give out carbonic acid gas and moisture aj animals do. and it is because of this respiration that they become softer and lose weight. It appears that the colder the place in which the apples are stored the slighter are the chemical changes produced by their breathing. The prao tical moral for tha fruit grower is, therefore, that they should he put in cold storage a,- soon as possible after they are picked. Accord ing to Professor Morse, exposure to a high tem- perature f-or evon a few days will greatly lessea their keeping ppwer. HAILSTONES. Have you ever examined the middle of a hail- stone? When dissected, it is found to be an aggregate of tiny crystals disposed in concentrio rings or zones—zones which, if rightly croce- examined. will have much te tell concerning the wonderful journey of the hailstone as it plunged through the atmosphere on it way to the earth. At the heart of every hailstone it a tiny atom of dust, which may be considered to be the very foundation of the whole structure, these atoms of dust pervade every part of the atmosphere. Not only are they found in the lower 6trata of the air, but the winds caryj them far above the highest mountains, ana when samples of air obtained by balloonists or by mountain travellers are examined, minute particles of dust are always eyerywhere.to be found. Indeed, it is becoming understood that, withyut an atom of dtitit upon which the mois- ture of the air could settle, there would be rain- drops, no snow no fog, dew, clouds, or hail. ETIQUETTE EXTRAORDINARY. There was once a simple parent who en. deavoured to instil into his boy's miud principle! of courtesy and refinement. He thought ii rather smart on his part to buy a book on eti- quette for Tom's birthday, instead of Robin- son Crusoe," which young Tdm hankered after. When you have read that through." said Tom. senior. and proved you have profited bj it, we will talk about some other book. Bettei begin by took-ing under D in the index foi doors." The senior Tarn winked at mamma, and th, junior Tom winked at his tyke. Thanks, pa." said Tom. meekly. It was a pretty fragment of English home liff until Tom's sister, in attempting to leave th« apartment, found herself clutched by the hand and flung violently backwards into the coal. scuttle. "You ignorant little beast!" protested Tom Don't you know that a gentleman should oper the door for you?" ♦ MISTRESS AND SERVANT. When staying in the Sandwich Islands I had an amusing experience with my Hawaiian ser. vant. NtAv these servants insist on calling you by your first name. Ours was always saying to my husband. Yes, John." and to me, Ver, well, Mary." etc.. etc. So when we got a new cook I told my husband to avoid calling mi Mary as then, not knowing my name, he would have to say missus to me. So John I ways called me sweetheart or dearie," never Mary," but the watchful fellow, gave me n. title at all. One day we had some officers to dinner, and, while awaiting the repast, I told them of the ruse I had adopted, and added, By this ser- vant, at least, you won't hear me called Mary." Just then the new cook entered the room. He bowed, and said to me: "Sweetheart, dinner is served." What?" I stammered, aghast at his familiarity. Dinner is served, dearie," answered the new cook. ♦ A BEAUTIFUL MINERAL. The small, though picturesque village of Castle- ton, in the Peak of Derbyshire, is the only plact in England where the beautiful Blue John (topajiae four) mineral is obtained, and the making of this into useful and ornamental 1 rticle8 is an industry quite rare. The mineral is composed of lime and acid, the blue colonring matter being manganese oxide. This really ex- quisite richness and variety of colour is the ob- ject of much admiration. The present price in fie Tough is :£-40 per ton. This fine spar has only been found in one other place besides Derbyshire—namely, in Saxony, but only at Castletex does it abound in sufficient quantity to repay the cost of procuring it, and even here the annual product i. said to be much less than tormwly. Oo rare, in fact, i8 this splendid spar Uiat orders are always en hand at Castleton taom many different parts ef the Globe for sup- pUeteof it.

Grxit thoughts, when expressed in noble l",rfguage, oftpn cnme across the thoughtful minfi fik,, a melody, of which one has long ago in- wardly realised the charm, yet never had con- fidence to give the harmony to others. On this subject. F. W. Robertson most naturally says: "The charm of the words of great men. those grand sayings which are recognised as true as soon as heard, is this. that you recognise them as wisdom which has passed across your own mind. You feel that they are your own thoughts come back to yon, else you would not at once admit them. All that floated, across me before, only I could not say it, and did not feel confident enough to assert it, or had not I eonyiction enough to put it into words/ The first conviction that there is death in the house is. nprhaps, the most awful moment of youth. When we are young, we think not only ourselves, but all about us are immortal. Until the arrow has struck a victim round uir own hearth, death is merely an unmeaning word; until then its castial mention has stamped no idea upon our brain. There are few, even among those least susceptible of thought and emotion, in whose hearts and minds the first 10 death in the family does not act as a powerful revelation of the mysteries of life, and of their own being; there are few who, after such a catastrophe, do not look upon the world and the world ways. at least for a time. with changed and tempered feelings. It recalls the past; it makes us ponder over the future; and youth, gay and light-hearted youth, is taught, for the first time, to regret and to fpar.-Beaconsfielti. When one studies the life of any of th? fallen nations, ancient or modern, he finds that it is merely an experiment in establishing justice be- tween men—"finding the balance between the great conticting forces of life, mine and thine." Kays a Mioughtful student of the past. When we have sppnt any considerable number of years in this world, and look back over our own lives. we find the same thing. What have they been, these defeats and successes, these joys and heart- ache* these winnings and losings, the glad davs and the dark days—what have they been, for the most part, but our struggle in one form or an- other with that aid problem of striking the Tlroppr balance between self and our fellow-man? It is just when time has made us most pitiful and considerate, when many a hard knack has taught us justice, and when love has at last won us to hoia the Tights of others dear, it is then that we pass on. When conversation fell uprtn architecture, I painting. music flowers, or gardens. St. Francis found no fault with those who sought interest therein, only he would fain havc, all such occu- pations so used as to become means of raisin? the soul to God. as was his own habit in all things. Thus the sight of flourishing plants led him fo liken our souls to the field God cultivates. See- ing a church, he would say. U Wer" our soul but meet for his indwellin Gazing OY" beautiful flowers, "When shall we bring forth our fruit in due season?" or on an exquisite picture, "What is so lovely as a soul formed in the image of God?" Passing a fountain, he said, y when will our hearts be filled with liv- ing waters? How long shall we neglect the fountain of life, and hew out for ourselves broken cisterns? When shall we drink freely from the wells of salvation?" Crossing the mountains, he would quote the Psalms, I will lift up mine eyes to the hills from whence I cometh my help. O ye mountains and hills, bless ye the Lord." Crossing a river. How souls flow towards God. even as the stream to the sea." leverything brought God before his thoughts. The subject of a man's thoughts contributes much to the formation of his character. He whose imagination is wont to dwell on the world and worldly things, will be apt to contract a character of a worldly cast. He will be of the earth, earthy." But he who is used to lift up his thoughts to high and heavenly things. and delights to feed his mind with thfc prospect "of the glory that shall be revealed" in the bod ies of lust men raised incorruptible, and in I their spirits made perfect: of the excellency of their abode, and the purity of their joys, and the holiness of their companions, and the un- mingled godlinesg of their pursuits and occu- pations in the presence of God and of Christ, will I hardly fail of deriving thence by God's blessing, and infusing into his own character some par- ticles of a celestial spirit; and of advancing, by means of these "exceeding great and precious promises" in that improvement of the inner man, which St. Peter terms a partaking of the divine nature." As "the skin of Moses' face shone when he had been holding converse with th Lord on Mount Sinai, s. will the soul that ascends to Mount Sion" and meditates on the city of the living God. the heavenly Jerusalem." with all its appropriate and divine accompaniments, reflect in some degree its love- tineefl and splendour, according to that beauti- ful similitude of St. Paul. where he is describing tHe excellency of the Gospel dispensation: u W. all. with open face, beholding as in a glass," oil mirror. the glory of the Lord, are changed int4 the same image from glory to glory, even u bj Ike spirit of the JArd..P-Bishop Mant.

MR. BALFOUR EXPOSED,
Tate the waswer point by point. we art told that this tax will have a bad effect oa building. The Blue Book recently issued by the Government contains a return written by the Commissioner of Taxon in the Land and Income Tax Department at Wellington, New Zealand. This is what he says on the effect of the Unimproved Values Tax on the build- ing trade in New Zealand: The effect has certainly been greatly to stimulate the building trade. The object and tendency of this system of taxation is to com- pel land being put to ite best use, so that the greatest amount of income may be derived from it, rendering it unprofitable to hold land "for prospective increment in value. It haa been the direct cause of much valuable aubur* fcan land being cut up and placed on the market, and thus rendered more easily avail- able for icsidential purposes, and of the sub- division of large estatos in the country, result- ing in eloser settlement. < < Again, we are told that the Tax will raise rents. On that point the answer of the New Zealand Commissioner of Taxes is quite definite: The tendenoy of this system of taxation is not to increase rent but. on the contrary, as the tax becomes heavier it tends to bring into beneficial occupation land not put to its best use, and so reduces rent, the improvements being entirely free from all ratct*. and taxes. In some cases, where land suitable for building sites is limited high rents have been maintained not- withstanding the tendency of the system. Finally, we hear it said that it will ruin the trade in land, and have no effect in encourag- ing building on vacant sites. There, again, She answer of the New Zealanderf is -quite definite: The effect has been to cause vacant cites be- ing put to their best use by expenditure on improvements. On vacant sites the rates and taxes are increased and continue to increase as the adjacent sites which have been im- proved increase in value. It thus becomes un- profitable to continue to hold land i unimproved. Again, we are told that it will have a bad effect on city life, and increase overcrowding. There we have a most interesting report con- tained, in the Blue Book issued by the Wel- lington City Council, and, disposing practi- cally of all the points raised in this column. This is how the Wellington City Councillors describe the effect of the U* japroved Value. Tax on the life of the city of Wellington: Encourages improvements, stimulates the use of land, secures the unearned increment to those who have added the value, mulcts all lands in their fair share of taxation, and para- lyses the old systerti under which rental values on lands could by simple manipulation reduce local taxation to a farce. Much, if not most, of the activity of building operations during past year due to influence of this healthy measure, and with necessary restrictions to prevent overcrowding of buildings no un- toward result need be apprehended. No com- bined serious objection. Cost of industrial yentures not increased. Really, that report makes English mouthn water. If we can produce that kind of effect by our taxes, why should we not do so? These are Mr. Lloyd-George's i. proposals. What is the alternative? The Unionists have been very slow to emphasise the alternative up to the present; but during the past week they have come out more boldly. The Tariff Reformers are beginning to say plainly that they will no longer hold their tongues. And what is their plan? Why, to take these taxes off the owners of land and put them on the consumers of food. They recognise that the money must be raised, but they want to raise it by taxing the man whose main food is bread. < They would "broaden the basis of taxa- tion." What doe, that meant Why, it meant Caking the taxes off the ricla and putting ttem on to the poor, "ariDø the land Wo tpuooji the labourer For Influenza take Woods' Great Peppermint Cure.
