The Crown Princess of Roumania Is a splendid horsewoman; and hon much pluck and strength of character. Once, when, riding in the Carpathian Moun- tains, a violent storm came on and her horse bolted, frightened 'by the lights ning. The brave Princess at first stuck to her saddle, but just before they reach- ed a precipice she saved - her life by sliding from it, as where the maddened animal reached the edge it sprang over and was dashed to pieces on the,, rocks beneath. This Royal lady had a tree and happy childhood. The story goes that when she was on board her late father's flagship. at Malta she quickly became a petted favorite among the officers and sailors. In those days she used to take keen- delight in ."helping" the ship's 000k at his duties. Lord Lister, the famous surgeon, who attained the ago of eighty the other day, is undoubtedly one of the great- est benefactors' to humanity that the wcrld has ever seen. It is just forty years since he first announced his e.is- covery of the antiseptic treatment which has made his name one of the most honored in medical history. It would probably be impossible to find another man in the world to -whose- work so many people owe their lives. Before the treatment which he introduced be- came general it is estimated that nearly 50 per cent. of surgical operatiohs proved fatal owing to septic poisoning. \Vhat today would be considered a simple operation Was -in those days al- ways faced with the probability of a fatal. termination. At the present day it is only ire eery rare cases that the wound caused. by an . operation Ls at- taciced by_posoning,- This is almost en- tirely duo to the antiseptic treatment, which hos trade the most intricate and complicated operation possible. -Possibly no man has done more to safeguard the -railway passenger than.

These inventions• cover al- most every phase of railroad develop- ment staving to do with the safeguard- ing of life and property' Mr. West- inghouse is now sixty years of age; but in spite of his years he personally sup- ervises his many railway interests, and tn-additba finds time to pian and bring out new inventions.

The rail- way hila the right to appeal against ' .this order, which they _..they will undoubtedly do. The order -also ' calls for third-class cars to be attached to at least one train each way every day.- There aysThere are some who declare that there are now third-class ears attached to every train that runs on the Grand Trunk al- though nine out of every . ten -patrons" on • • these cars are travelling on first-class tickets. We do not believe as some skeptical persons do, that when -this-order comes into force,- the railway will use their out-of-date cattle carsl'and flat cars for the benefit of their third-class. patrons and that the seats provided will bemade of unplaned hemlock plank without any backs . or cushions. We believe when the_ railway is compelled to obey this order- they will furn- ish . third-class accommoda- tion, although they may °use their own judgment in re- gard to what constitutes third- class accomodation. There Was a time when it - would be un- reasonable to expect a two -cent rate - but during the past few years the amount of travel on the older portion of the rail - away has been such that a demand for the lower rate is justifiable, and it ' is. hoped` that . the .question may soon be settled. hr. s.: '. .

The Indians of this district be- lieve that when a sick person becomes delirious a spirit or "Wendigo' has en- tered them. and that if the person dies naturally the Wendigo escapes to the woods, pursues and frightens away the game; and famine follows. Therefore, the band assembled, and, according to the custom, appointed their chief and medicine man to the high honor c f choking the sick squawethat the spirit might not escape with the passing ef breath, but might, remain imprisoned In the dead bedy. In the presence ef the band, the clnef and medicine man • , - of canvas. was -placed about the squaw's neck and then the noose of a rope. This being tightened by the two leaders cf ths band, the ravings of the woman were stopped, the evil spirit was inmris- erred and the game preserved. 'this piece'of barbaristn was executed within two hundred miles of Kereara. Word of it reached the authorities,. and the arrests followed. • The Fidlers asked the -officials not te bo too severe .with theta, as They bad no - idea that they were doing wrong. They were merely doing their wily by the band, and 'following the custom of their fathers. The- execu- tion of this duty- was- a high honor, aed, according to .custom, the execu- ticners• were handsomely fed by the parents of the victim. The Justice Department is' to decide whether kt will be better to send a judge kNorway House-. to try . the case (r bring the prisoners and witnesses to carried out the instructions.

A despatch from North Bay says: While a fierce gale of wind was raging a fire broke out on Friday morning :n the tailor store of T. H.

The •fire criginated from gasoline used in clean- ing garments and ;Mr. Campbell was seriously burned, his clothing being LI- pital. The firemen worked heroically in theblinding smoke and blistering • heat and succeeded in preventing the tlames from spreading to the Purvis block adjoining. In this they were as- sisted by a fire wall, which helped to check the attack of the•flames. J. W.'

Mr. \\'illime Dietrich •ef the Univer- sity of Illinois who gives his whole time to swine .instruction. and experi- ments, relates the following interest- ing and valuable results of his work: •A six months' feeding experiment was conducted with nine lots of pigs. During the second half of this experi- ment the pigs in lot two gained 20 pounds live weight, while the pigs tet nine gained 120 pounds and yet the two lots were fed exactly the saniehein.i of food. and in the same manner. These widely different results were produced by the way the pigs had been fed dur- ing. the -first half of the experiment. Protein food is absolutely necessary far the healthful growth of young pigs, ate a previous experiment has shown that when the pigs•eat too much 'pro- tein that much more of it is excreted without being used in the body. After :15 days of reduction in feeding the amount of protein • excreted decreased until it was less than the amount fed.• In the early part of the feeding period the pig makes lean meat out of protein, sa protein should be fed at first when- tho animal needs it for making growth, hut at the close of. the swine feeding period When you want to put the tat cn the animal this may be done ruore eu.nomically .by feeding carbohydrates: But of too much _protein food (such :is wc get, in oil meal or tankage) is fed to the young pig the excess of protein is not only wasted, but actually pre - lents the animal from making the pro- per gains for a long time afterwards. If a bunch of hogs were eating nino pounds of corn per day and making one pound of gain, and it were desired tr double .lite• gain, the usual method would' be to double the feed, or an least to increase it, But at one point in the experiment the pigs were eating eight pound, of fed per day -and two pounds of skimmed milk.. They were fed the same for five days and gained one-. ! iurth pound. Later when this teed was cut down to tour pounds of meal and 1.5 pounds of skimmed milk, they 'one-half .pound. One-balhof the f' el was taken away and they made twice the gain:- ' In, this experiment the. pigs had all been fed as goon -as they hewed tg cal, at about one month old. They were allowed to run. with their mothers up M three months of age, when they were weaned and 'placed immediately in this experiinent. After these pigs had been fed for six months those in I 1 one weighed '73 pounds and hada gained just 23 pounds during the six re, nths of feeding. They Were fed in a dry lot of about one-eighth acre and had no grass whatever. They were ! -d twice a day on corn meal and water and` given as much as they would eat. Lot two was eel exactty the same en ermineal_ and water, but . in addition was -given a mixture of charcoal weed ashes, line and salt and a- little oop- peras, and by the -addition of these ma- te rials they made three times as much gain as the pigs Ln lot one. hot two gained 70 • pounds-- and -weighed i20 p»unds, at the close. Pip in a wild natural stole have ac- cess to weeds, herbs, grasses, roots, - bugs and insecta of which he ca free;y. -Under artificial ' conditions, hog feed does not contain all the nec- essary. materials that are in these nat- ural feeds, and better health •has been secured by giving the hogs free access lo the ma -Stances named. The third lot had access to -a clover pasture (the experiment started. in Au- gust) and enormous results were receiv-- c i _ream this clover,.. which . rurnished protein. They made a • gain of 190 p unds where lot two gained only i0 pounds,. Lot three averaged 241.,pounds per head at. the close, ' ' -Lots five' and sec were fed corn meal, bran; middlings and tankage. • They gained about 210 pounds and -at the -close weighed 270 pounds. A pig under two months on corn or middlings will al, ways, cat too .much.' , Ile can eat and aigest a certain amount of food, but af- ter the food is digested he has to kuild 't into tissue and he can build up into hotly tissue as much food as he can rat. \Ve limited the;•amount orf food fee' to the pigs in lot eight of food fed to the last half of the experiment, with the idea of reducin erg i and nine were ' given less than they• would eat. ' In lot nine when the pigs were six months old. all the. protein feeds, • that is. tankage, bran. and middlings, were taken away• and they were fed nothing but corn meal. Lot nine had the nitro- genous foods' one month tenger, that is, they were token away at seven months. Lot eight averaged 299 pounds a fid lot nine, 305 pounds at, the close of the experiment. .The pigs in lot eight and nine gain - et 28.6 per cent,, more .by. 5.4 )ter cent. less fend ' than lots five and six. -Lot three was the only lot that had clover during the last three months, Where lot nine v s fed the same as lot. twe. The firmer remade 120 pounds while the latter_ made -20 pounds of gain. - The difference was caused entirely by the way they had been fed during the preceding three mohths: This' series of experiments has shown that•. about elght-tenths of a pound (,f protein is xis •much as a pig can make good use ot. • FATIM NOTES.
