FORESTS OF PHILIPPINES. But It is to the forests of the Th!l-

; lppines that we are wholly unable to ; do justice. Timber exists in great vai riety and cf most excellent quality. There are to be found kinds of wood suitable to every purpose. Many aro of dense and tough fiber susceptible of j the highest polish. Four kinds are so I heavy that water will not float them, nor can they be cut with ordinary ' saws. One variety is of a bright em erald green, and another rich yellow, and they retain those colors when polished. Another, "narra," perhaps the prettiest, and much used in fine furniture, varies in color from light straw to deep red. It is strong and hard and I takes a high polish. Perhaps the best ! known is "molave," a very heavy dark brown wood, used for finishing ia tho interior of the Jesuit Church at Manila, where it is said the carvings are by master hands and of surpassing beauty. Ebony is abundant. There aro the cacao tree, the cocoanut palm, and the bamboo, all invaluable to the , natives, and also a tree which yields a kind of cotton. A pitcher-plant is found with recep tacles that hold as much as a quart of ! - rr"l. a dii-i. infie is a ery curious piani. with long pendant feelers that hang near the ground and have remarkable prehensile properties, taking the strongest hold on anything that happens to touch them. It is with th3 greatest difficulty that a passer-by can extricate himself from one of tlieso many-fingered, hanging hands. From "A Sketch of the Philippines," in SelfCulture for July. Why? The peculiar simplicity of the French peasant is illustrated by two incidents. A peasant went to his postoffice and offered for the mail a letter which was over the weight specified for a single stamp. "This is too heavy," said the postmaster. "You will have to put another stamp on it." "Wh-wh-why," said the peasant, with wide-open eyes, "w-w-will another stamp make it any lighter?" Another peasant, presiding over tho municipal council of his village, gavo tho assembly a lecture on the lack of necessity for any more road-building. "As for the roads which are now bad," he said, "it is of no use to repair them, for nobody travels over them; and as for those which are good, why do anything to them until they get bad?" The Place for Your Daughter. St. Mary's Academy at Notre Dame, Indiana, ranks first among the educational institutions for girls. Young women from all parts of the United States are found in its classes. The 1 faculty have just issued a catalogue , that contains much valuable data. ; Parents elesirous of sending their i daughters to the best institution should r 11.!. il - . 1 senu ior mis caiaioyue ueioie ueeiuing on sending them elsewhere. It is under the supervision of the Sisters of the Holy Cross and is located at Notre Dame, far from the excitement of even village life, and right among the beautiful scenes of the Creator's handiwork. American Horses iu London. Few of the million passengers or more who make their daily journey in a London bus or street car know that the horses which drav.- them are nearly always Americans or Canadian. Great Britain, the "horsiest" country in the world, buys more than 20,000 horses from the United States every year. Nearly all of these are heavy draft horses. The truth is, since the coaching era came to an end, the British farmer has neglected the harness horse in favor of the hunter, and still prefers to rear "sometuing that can gallop and jump." Farming In Colorado and Neu- Mexico. The Denver fc Bio Grande railroad. "the Scenic Line of the World." has prepared an illustrated book upon tho above subject, which will be sent free to farmers iesiring to change their location. This publication gives valuable information in regard to the agricultural, horticultural and live stock interests of this section, and should be in the hands of everyone who desires to become acquainted with the methods of farming by irrigation. Write S. K. Hojper, G. P. & T. A.. Denver, Colo. The Baltimore .t Ohio Railroad Is about to make a radical change in its method of running dining cars and it . is expected that the new plan will meet j with popular approval. On and after i the first of June, all meals, except dinners, will be served on the "a la carte" I plan. Hitherto on the main line, all service was at the uniform rate of one dollar per meal. Two new dining cars are being built and will be in service by July 1, so that all through trains will be provided with first-class dining cars.
