ForeIgrht "With "Which These Ani mals Build "Winter Homes. In the month of March , before the rivers have opened , on the snow around Ithe heads of the creeks and about the lairholes In the thick ice may be seen | the curious trail of the muskrat. It jean readily be recognized by the firmly planted footmarks , heavily and slowly Impressed and the sharp after drag of jthe long , scaly , bladelike tail. All ithrougb. the cold winter months these 'heavily ' furred animals have lived , warm and comfortable in their well Kxmstrueted houses , rearing their third and last litter. One house erected jabout September seemed planned with almost human foresight. Here , with ; their long sharp teeth and strong , inch . .f . long elaws , they had cut and cleared wide- paths through all the marshes aths so deep that three feet of ice did not close them , so wide that we have often paddled along them , marveling at the great floating masses of torn up equatic vegetation- These paths were a hundred yards long and four feet wide and were cut through a mass of rtangled cover high enough in most places to thoroughly conceal a duck hunter and his canoe. In the winter months the muskrats can easily dive from their houses into these under ice channels , and the whole marsh is be- 'fore ' them to choose their meal from. ( The long yellow roots of the flag and the juicy tubers of the wild onion ( the ( muskrat apple is the more poetic Ojib- way ) hang exposed before them or are reaxDly torn out.

ATI Unfair Advantage. The twin boys , Johnny and Tommy , not only looked almost exactly alike , and could wear each other's clothes without the slightest misrit , but usuai- ly weighed the same , there being a difference of not more than an ounce 1 or two between them , notwithstanding ' the efforts they were always m/lking to ' outweigh each other. ' 'Tom , " said his brother one day , "let's go and get weighed. I believe I can beat you this time. " Tommy agreed , and they went to the , grocery store where these contests were usually decided. "You get on the scales first , " said Johnny. Tommy complied , and his weight was found to be sixty-eight pounds , twelve ounces. Then Johnny took his turn. Ue tipped the scales at exactly sixty-nine pounds. "That ain't fair ! " exclaimed Tommy. "And it don't count ! I forgot about that big boil on your arm ! " Qnnrrelsome Persons. The mistress of the house always goes straight to the point , says a writer in Punch. "Why did you leave your last place ? " she -bluntly asked the ap plicant for housemaid's place.

Sargent , Commissioner ircneral of Immigration , will show that the total number of immigrants idmitted during the year ending June : iO , 1907 , was over 1,400,000 , or 200- XX ) in excess of the number that came luring the preceding year. Mr. Sar gent does not agree with some mem- > ers of the Congress Immigration Com- nission that undesirable immigrants come from particular localities , such as Italy , Syria and Asia Minor. He says that our need of laborers necessi tates our taking such nationalities as come , and it is impossible to exclude all the Ilunchakists and Black Hand people who come in with the others , but we must have laws which will as far as possible exclude such persons from the country. Regarding the di version of the tide of immigration , Mr. Sargent says that it is impossible to divert the growing influx into such a place as New York in a day or a year , although gradually the tide is turning , to the South , the Southwest and the' Northwest , and it is only a question of time when foreigners will learn -that they can do better in smaller places ban in the big cities. The postofllce profits slightly by the. destruction of stamps which have been- paid for , and the Treasury gets the' benefit of bills which are lost nnd nev- T found. A larger source irregular profit lies in the failure of bondholders to present their bonds for redemption , rnelaimed money in the Treasury due to bondholders amounted to nearly a . Million dollars in 1SG1 , and the sum is \ "uich greater now. Of a loan which fell due in 15)00 , the sum of thirty-two thousand dollars remains unclaimed. Nearly u hundred thousand dollars are still unpaid of the five per cent bonds-1 which were due in 1004. This year over i hundred million thirty-year four per cent bonds came due on July 1. Spe cial inducements were offered to se cure early redemption. Yet at the end of the month thirteen million dollars still stood in the Treasury on this ac- ounr , although interest has ceased. * _ V -T Itailroads of the middle west are Charged Svith conspiring to ruin the large creamery interests in seven states ind territories in a complaint filed be- bre the Interstate Commerce Commis sion. It is held that business uggregat- ng $14,000,000 annually , besides mil- ions' worth of equipment , will be ruin ed because of conspiracy. The com- ) lainants are dairy companies of Iowa , Nebraska , Missouri , Colorado , Okla- loma , Wyoming , Kansas and South Da cota , collectively producing 60,000,000 > ounds of butter annually. The coni- jlaint charges that the railroads agreed 1 on an increase of rates for transport- < ng cream amounting from GG to 140 > er cent. The increase was announced ; o go into effect Sept. 1. but the cream- rirfs were granted an injunction in the 'ederal circuit court until the commis sion investigates the charges. The Navy Department is reported to have made successful experiments at Newport with the invention of a Frenchman designed to protect war ships from submarine mines. The mechanism depends upon magnetic pow er , but its precise nature is kept se cret. Mines such as would be laid by an enemy were blown up long before I the ship carrying the apparatus crossed the explosive field. At last the order to test the horse manship of all officers on duty at the War Department has been issued. It requires that these oliicers shall report to a board of surgeons before their ride is undertaken , and if any are found not fit they may be excused. The test ride will be fifteen miles , the first five at a walk , the second five at a trot and the finish at a gallop. * - - Chief Chemist Wiley of the Depart ment of Agriculture has organized a new class of young men upon whom he will experiment with the drinks usual ly sold at soda fountains , this being the result of a request from the War Department for information regarding the different kinds of aerated drinks sold at army canteen ? . _ * j * Surgeon General Wyman of the Pub lic Health Service , under instructions from the President , is taking steps to ! uncover alleged crookedness in several large cities , where physicians are said to be concealing the facts about epi demics caused by impure milk.

At last , however , he made a large sum of money by means of an invention in car wheels ; and very scon thereafter his family , consisting o/ his wife and two young daughters , were to be seen taking their daily outing in a motor cac. One day the three were being driven rapidly through the park , while a look of painful self-consciousness over spread the features of the inventor's wife , as she sat bolt upright , looking straight before her. "Now , ma. " came in clear tones from one of the daughters , whose keen face was alive with enjoyment , "now , : na , can't you loll back and not look as if the water was boiling over ? " Variations of There are an enormous number of possible variations of cards in card games. Every man when he takes up his cards at whist holds one out of G3o,0iao50.000 possible hands. The total number of variations possible among all players is so great as almost to exceed belief. It has been calculated that if a million men were engaged in dealing cards at the rate of one deal every minute day and night for 100- 000,000 years they would have exhaust ed only a hundred-thousandth part of the variations of the cards. TEN YEABS OF PAIN. Unable to Do Even Tlousevrork IJe- causc of Kidney Trouble * . Mrs. Margaret Emmerich , of Clin ton street , Napoleon , Ohio , says : "For fifteen years I was a great sufferer from kidney troubles. My back pained me terri bly. Every turn or move caused sharp , shooting pains. My eyesight w a s poor , dark spots appeared before me , and I hail dizzy spells. For ten years I could nog do housework , and for t'o years did not get out of the house. The kidney secretions were irregular , and doctors were not helping me.

Grogan writes : "The Kungu fly , which is peculiar to Lake Nyassn , resembles small May flies , and at certain seasons of the year they rise from the water in such stupendous clouds that they blot out the whole horizon. Seen in the distance they have exactly the appearance of a rain storm coming across the lake. When they are blown landward they make every place uninhabitable by the stench which arises from the countless millions that lodge and die on every inch of sheltered ground. I myself have seen them lying a foot deep In a room , and I was told that they are often much worse. The natives sweep them up and makes cakes of them. "Biting and poisonous ants are an other pest , but the mosquito is the great enemy of man. It was abso lutely necessary to turn in half an hour before sunset and to make all the preparations for the night. I piled all my belongings round the edge ot my net and kept a green wood fire burning at each end , and then I lay inside , smoked the native tobacco and prayed for morning. As soon as the sun went down the mosquitoes started operations. "It was like having a tame whirl wind in one's tent. They could not possibly have been worse. Every night 200 or 300 contrived to enter my net I have no idea how. The most pernici ous and poisonous kind was a very small black mosquito that might pos sibly have penetrated the mesh. I used to turn out in the morning perfectly dazed from the amount of poison that had been injected during the night.
