UNINHABITED ISLANDS.

If you should wout nn Island—that Is.
nr. i:r.!nliolilt«<l lslr.nl—for the purpose
of occupying It alone, Uobluson Crusoe
like, or to tint' It for ronton tic Hctlon or
fer any otlier purpose, to the exclusion
of nil others In the world, you need have
uo trouble In tludlpg one If you see dt
tc make a Journey to tlie' Indian ocean.
In the waters between Madagascar and
India you con find more than 1r>.000 of
them, where there Is not a human be
ing and where you can. If you will be
monarch of all you survey.
An Kngttsli traveler has recently lieen
among tike small islands that dot the
western end of the Indian ocean to
make an Inventory of them and re
ports that he counted 10,100 and found
only about dOO of them Inhabited.
Now. there Is a gm«! chance for any
oue who nmy wnnt an Island.
These particular Islands are not large,
as Islands go. but very many of them
are sufficient for tbe purpose of a Rob
inson Ortuioe or liny other novel hero
or for wen a small colony of ship-
wrecked mariners or other persons who
might be cost on one of them or seek
for the purpose of making a home pret
ty much out of the busy world.
Rome of them are ouly an acre or
two. well elevated above |he tide, while
others her n iinnrter of a mile In diam
eter and running from that op to a mile
or I wo fn length und n quarter or less
of the tengtli In breadth. Many of
them are granitic, at ruptures that rise
steeply from 20 to 100 feet, well cover
ed with rich soil, through which' small
fresh water streams hurry to Hie sen.
which they reneh after flowing over
boacheg of glistening calcareous sand
that are begirt by coral reefs, which
form walls about the Islands.

for customers to take the bodies away,
but (bat lie hud lio objection, and he
fetched the bird, which his wife had
'put on a plate and covered with dour.
“Ah!"* exclaimed the gentleman "It
looks very nice. Hitt what Is this white
powder with which It Is covered
“Oh. flint,” replied the taxidermist
quietly, "Is nrseule. I always cover
the bodies with that until I can dis
pose of them."
“Ar-arseak-!“ stammered the gentle
man. "Why. 1 thought that the bird

As for hair, there Is no end to the
harm it harbors. A wisp quickly forms
Itself Into a sc i of strainer, catching
nml holding all that passes. Aside
from that. It has a trick of lodging In
the roost Inconvenient places, catching
upon the least roughness inside the
pipe and staying there until by accre
tion It has clogged the whole spare.
Hair has special affinity for hits of
soap! Solid Ronp. by the way. should
never lie sent down tbe pipes. Very
strong soapsuds even Is objecttunable
unless you follow It with a flood of
clenn water, preferably hot water. -
Coffee grounds and ten leaves either
clog u pipe very soon or else. If the
flush water prevents that, wear It
through quickly, pnrtly'by mechanical
ai/tlon. pertly by chemical. Neither
should ever lie iwrraltted In a sink.
Even If you art* wise enough to keep
out all grease, and thus It take sure that
the grounds shall get safe away from
your own pipes. In the sewer they tufty
come In contact with grense from pipes
less carefully kept and rake and clog
your wltole pljie system, making iiccch-
asry costly and Inconvenient unclog-
Bin*
Bvory kltrhen ought to have Ita grense
can, emptied once a week In winter
and In summer every three days. AH
aorta of refuse fnt should go Into It
even tlie scrapings from plates and
dishes. Greasy water, as from Willing
hailM or corned beef, should he allowed
to cool thoroughly, then have the
grense carefully'taken off before It goes
down the pipes. ■ Skillets and frying
puns ought to be tilled with very hot
soda water and let stand half an hour
i before washing This gives time for
I the soda to (inrM> suismlfy the grease
j und keep It from sticking to the pipe
I or raking on top ot the trap.

j the scouring grit out of the Joints,
