A Bad One in New South Wales Mean)"
:1 Loss of Many Million .r
Dollars.
What the drought of the last few
years has cost New South Wales has
been estimated, and the estimate makes ‘
up a bit of very doleful arithmetic,
says Westminster Gazette. The flocks
of the colony have shrunk- from 66,000,-
3000 to 46,000,000, representing a loss of
20,000,000 sheep. If to this is added
the loss of natural increase the shrink-
age amounts to 50,000,000 'sheep;
enough, that is, to equip a considerable-
sized colony. In addition there has
been a loss of nearly 300,000 horses and
150,000 cattle.
That the colony has been able to
survive these terrific losses is a strik-
ing proof of energy and resource.
Translated into money the colony. has
sufiered a loss of from £r12,000,000 to
;£20,000,000. For so much, when 'ex-
pressed in pounds, shillings and pence,
do a few inches more or less of rain-
"fall count! We are probably entering
on a cycle of years, a contemporary
thinks, when the kindly skies will pour
on the far-stretching plains their bene-
diction of rain, and these vast losses

95moker’s Habits Are Changed “'lth-
out His Knowledge by the
Faithful \Voman.
A woman will invariably solve the
most perplexing of problems, and solve
it, too, tactfully and well. A little
creature lives inIChicago whose hus-
band is an inveterate smoker, and when
they went to housekeeping he fur-
fnished a charming little den in which
-he and his cronies could smoke. Now,
.93. man is never‘quite as companiona-
his as when he is smoking, and his
‘wife soon found it out, and while he
was smoking his post-prandial cigar,
:which usually lengthened itself into
several, they both'missed one another.
He liked to tell her between whiifs of
all the witty things he had said to the
fellow wit-h whom he had eaten lunch,
and she liked to hear him tell them.
One day she had an idea—she fre-
quently had them—and so she rigged
'up a little table in the library, “just a
makeshift for the den, you know,” she
ing while you smoke.” The table is
just the prettiest affair. It is an ordi-
jnary mahogany small table with .a
flinen cover, which can be frequently
laundered, and upon it are half a dozen
boxes of tobacco, a silver lighting and
cutting arrangement, .wax ’matches,
‘boxes of cigars and a tray with several
odds and ends. A pretty pipe rack in
‘burnt wood decoration is placed above
the. table, and it has simply come to
this: The gentleman sits down to
.smoke one cigar while he finishes a
story, his wife stitching meanwhile,
land he seldom leaves until it is time
ito retire. And the best of it is he has
never discovered the bit of strategy
pn his wife’s part.

‘ “I have“ been an inveterate user of

which I have found are nearly all, more

AN terrorism ARMY.
Is the One Maintained by Little Swit-
' zerland at a Nomin-
al Cost.
It has long been a. matter of wonder
that Switzerland should be able to main-
tain an efficient army for less than
$500,000. She could in a case of emer-
gency put 100,000 troops in the field
in two days, with 100,0000 more in re-
serve, besides 27,000 militia. The Swiss
have been peculiarly strong fighters
since the dawn of European history,
ruining all invaders from the Romans
to the French by their never-say-die'
mode of warfare. Almost every man in
the present Swiss army is a marksman,
as shooting societies are substantially
encouraged by the government. The
equipment is most simple, as each man
keeps his rifle and accoutrements at
home. There is little or no artillery,
