The kitchen largely controls the
health of the family. It should al
ways be kept spotless, but the pre
cautions should be redoubled it
summer, wben there are so many
more diseases prevalent and
many things to cause them.
In the country the temptation to
to throw water about the doors and
winddws soon brings about a sour,
ill-smelling condition which should
be corrected at once. There are so
many refuse bits of fruits and veg
etables which are often left to de
cay al>out the yard, and the swill
barrell is a serious matter: yet with
lime, curbolic acid and diligence
any woman may ha ve her premises
as pleasant to smell as to see. Es
pecially is this so in the country
where each woman has only her
own dirt, to contend with. Let us
hope as our women read more those
malodorous, greasy puddles about
the kitchen window and doors will
disappear along with the swill
bucket swarming will) flies ami for

People Who Live in Nests.
•Travelers who have returned
from the heart of Africa and the
Australian continent, tell wonder
ful stories of nest building people
who inhabit the wilds of those coun
tries.
In the bushmen of Australia we
find perhaps the lowest, order of
men that are known. They are so
primitive that they do not know
enough to build even the simplest
fosms of huts for shelter.
The nearest they could approach
to it ia to gather a lot of twigs and
grftss, and taking them into a thick
et or jungle, they build a <icst for n
home, much ns does u bird. The
n*l is usually built large enough
for the family, and if the latter be
very numerous the nests are of a
very large size.
Into this place they all turn and
•nuggle and curl up together like
«o man)' kittens. Sometimes the
foliage will grow together and form
a sort of a natural covering, but
there is never any attempt at con
structing a protection from the
rain and storms, and it is marvel
how they endure them.
Where there is a particularly
gqpd piece of jungle for
home sites it will be quickly appro
printed for the purpose, and some-
> hundreds of these neats will
be*found together in the bush, as it
in called.

More than^J25,000,000 grains of
quinine havo been consumed by
American soidiers during the past
year. In some cases men who were
in the hospitals in Cuba and Porto
Rico used as much as 800 grains a
week, and hardly any liayc failed
to use the drug at, some period of
their service. It is stated that the
people of this country sonsume
one-third of the quinine of the
world, the drug being used in the
preperutions ot many patent medi
cines, tonic, bitters, cold cures, etc,
as well as in pills and in bulk, and
a considerabfe quanitY is consum
ed in the manufacture of hair ton
ics. The official figures in the
1 rensury Bcreau of Siatisticesshow
there was imported last Year, into
the United States, 1,585,066,750
grains of quinine, and as there was
prnctiully no export of this article,
this means that the consumption
of quin.ne was about twenty grains
for each inhabitant. As is well
Known, quinine Peruvian bark and
calisaya bark are the products of •
the cinchona tree, which is a native
western South America, more par
ticularly in Peru and Ecuador,
Now, however, but a small part of
the supply comes from that region.
At present two-thirds of the qui
nine consumed is produced in Java
For many
years the Dutch government was
urged to undertake the cultivation
of this plant from Peru. Finally
this was accomplished and a large
number of specimens of the differ
ent varieties were obtained by bot
anists, who took them to Java m
1862. The English government
also started cinchona plantations
in India which now produce
large quantities ot quinine.—Scien
