Though perhaps most of us, young and old, associate reindeer chiefly with Santa’s jingling bells, still there are, besides the dear, familiar phantom reindeer, the very real reindeer who are serving a very real and muchneeded mission among the people of the far North, among whom Dr. Wilfred T. Grenfell works and lives his life of brotherly aid and uplift, Mary, M. Davis writes in Our Dumb Animals, About six years ago Doctor Grenfell imported from Labrador a herd of rein- deer, number about 400, which during their six years in Newfoundland have to and 1,000. somewhere between 700 The idea of bringing them from their native Lapland was suggested to Doctor Grenfell by the ener abundance of: riindeer muss in Nev They are cut in|this way lime and carbonic acid gas to or rather neutralize the remove other ingredients liquor. to separate the neutralize and far reaching. dwellers of that northern part of Newfoundland in which Doctor Grenfell works—but also are invaluable as beasts of burden. In every way they are as well adapted to the Cities Now Regularly by the United States Census Bureau. la A weekly circular giving the mortality statistics of the principal cities of the United States is now issued regularly by the United States census bureau, says the Scientific American. It gives the total number of deaths reported (stillbirths excluded), the death rate per thousand, number of deaths the proportion of infant deaths to total deaths, The cities for which data are given include one-fifth the population of the country.

The Mechanical Presses are made | nd the up of steel and cotton cloth filtrate from these presses | contain only the syrup with water.| From the mechanical presses the| filtrate passes on to the’ evaporators where the water is separated by 4a |process of distillation from the pure] syrup. The syruy is then returned from the evaporators to other mechanical presses from which it exudes .as a thick, brown liquid. This liquid is then elevated \to the sulphur wash where the pro¢ess of purification is continued by means of absorption. It is then dropped to the crystalizers, large, revolving tanks. Here it remains, and is thoroughly: mixed due to the rotary motion of the tanks until it forms into a |homo-. genous crystaline mass. ‘This | thick, crystaline liquid is then elevated what is termed the settling tanks into and from there into the pans. it is Hefe Thus the circular is a fairly accurate index to the state of the nation’s health.
