Mind Our Own Business.
With the war ended the states
men of England are getting very
cocky again, and making speech
es advising the United States to
mind her own husiness. They
are a little premature in their
expressions, as the League of
Nations covenant has not yet
been adopted, and the people of
this country may take them at
their word, repudiate the League,
and refuse to have anything fur
ther to do with the European
troubles. Os course, if the
League becomes effective, and
the council passes under the con
trol of King George’s dominions,
we know we will have to mind
our own business, because the
council will tell us where to head
in, and failing to heed the order
the League of Nations will call
out the armies of the signatories
to subjugate the United States.

LARGE FAMILIES ON RECORD
Grand Total of Sixty-Two, Borne by
One Wife, Would Seem to
Be the Limit.
,The nation which could scheme out
the intensive cultivation of “man
power” would win all of the
future and dominate the globe, but
though this sort of thing can be done
with vegetables and, to some extent,
with poultry, it seems a far cry for
the human race, and perhaps it is all
for the best, for if six at a birth be
came common marriage might become
uncommon.
The papers contained the informa
tion lately that a woman of Palermo
had presented her husband with five
boys, all well formed, and, according
to the doctor, “eating well and crying
well,” but this case is neither unique
nor a record.
The largest (grand total of children
borne by one wife seems to be 62 —
as many as most wives could want,
certainly! Strangely enough, this num
ber has been twice recorded. One is
sat to the credit of the wife of a poor
weaver in Scotland who bore her
“hubby” 46 boys and four girls who
grew to manhood and womanhood, and
a dozen others who died ere reaching
their prime.
Sir John Bowers of Newcastle, we
are told, adopted ten of the sons—rath
er a large order; three other landed
gentry took ten each, and the remain
der were brought up by their parents.
WONDER AT FOREST’S QUIET
Travelers Have Frequently Com
mented on Apparent Deficiency of
Animal Life in the Woods.
European travelers frequently allude
to the American forest as remarkable
for its solitude and deficiency of ani
mal life. A foreigner is struck with
surprise, when rambling through the
bush, at the scarcity of birds, rabbits,
and hares, and astonished when in the
deepest recesses of the wild country
he sees no increase of their numbers.
When paddling his canoe through lake
and river he will startle but few pairs
of exceedingly timid waterfowl, where
In Europe they swam In multitudes.
This scarcity of animals, I would re
mark, is not peculiar to the American
wilderness. The same fact has been
observed In extensive forests both in
Europe and Asia; and in proportion as
the traveler penetrates into their in
teriors he finds a smaller number of
animals of almost every species. Birds,
insects and quadrupeds will multiply
in a certain ratio with the progress of
agriculture, so long as there remains a
sufficiency of wild wood to afford them
a refuge and a home. They use the
forest chiefly for shelter, and the open
grounds for forage; the woods are
their house, the meadows their farm.—
Wilson Flagg, in “Woods and By-Ways
of New England.”
Silvering Mirrors.
There are several processes for sil
vering mirrors, the simplest of which,
perhaps, is to provide a large flat
stone table and spread upon it evenly
a sheet of tinfoil without crease or
blemish. This is covered uniformly
to a depth of one-eighth inch with
mercury. The plate of glass, perfect
ly cleansed of all grease and impuri
ties, is floated in the mercury care
fully so as to exclude air bubbles. It
Is then pressed down by loading with
weights in order to press out the
mercury which remains fluid. After
about 24 hours it may be raised on
its edge to harden, and should be
finished in a few weeks. Another
method involves the use of a solu
tion made as follows: Mix one ounce
nitrate of silver, three ounces water,
one ounce liquid ammonia and three
ounces spirits of wine. Filter after
solution has stood three or four hours.
To every ounce of the solution add
one-fourth ounce sugar dissolved in
equal quantities of water and alco
hol. The surface to be silvered is
covered with this liquid at a tempera
ture of 160 degrees, maintained till
the deposition of silver is complete.
When dry, coated surface is covered
with mastic varnish.
Novel Cure for Nerves.
I have a Philadelphia friend who
was ordered by a famous neurological
specialist to travel for a month on a
limited express to cure him of ner
vousness. He took a stateroom and be
gan. He was a man of extensive busi
ness interests, but as he could be
reached by wire at a known point on
the road at certain hours, coming or
going, he kept in touch with his affairs
without hindrance. It was a giddy
life and the excitement effected a com
plete cure—except that the familiar
counting room was thereafter too dull
for endurance and a Tigani band was
Installed that played the wildest Hun
garian music from nine till three. To
everybody but the boss the remedy
was worse than the ailment. —Julius
Chalmers in Brooklyn Eagle.
Gems Found In America.
Our own country is far from con
spicuous as a producer of gems, but
the upper Missouri river has yielded
from its gravel bars large numbers of
small, bright and beautiful sapphires.
They are not big enough or dark
enough to fetch high prices.
Nevertheless the finest green sap
phire (oriental emerald) in the world
was found In Macon county, N. C., and
at last accounts was a feature of the
collection of a citizen of Philadel
phia—Clarence S. Bement. It is a
transparent nodule of crystal, remark
ably pure, and would yield In cutting
a gem of 30 carats.
