A WONDERFUL LIVER CURE

Yhe soanager of the electrical expost- tion in Philadelphia asked Mr. Edison

to visit the show and give a short talk

t yy) ELIE OaOe

it inconvenient to do so to send ona phonographic cylinder setting forth some of his Jatest ideas of electrical in- terest. Mr. Edison complied in his own way with the latter request, and in do- ing so while omitting any reference to electricity produced an electrical effect Bpon the management and the auditors by his contribution. It was as follows:

My Dear Manne—You asked me to send you a phonographiec cylinder for your lecture and to say a few words to the audience. I do not think the audience would take any interest in dry scientific subjects, but perhaps they might be interested in a little story that a man sent me on a phonographic cylinder the other day from San Francisco.

In the year 18738 a man from Massachusetts came to California with a chronic liver com- plaint. He searched all over the coast for a mineral spring to cure the disease, and finally he found down in the San Joaquin valley a spring the waters of which alme«gt instantly cured him. He thereupon started a sanita- rium, and people from all over the world came and were quickly cured.

Last year this man died, and so powerful had been the action of the waters that they had to take his liver out and kill it with a club. Yours truly, EDIson.

Pearls.

Pearls, the costly product of the pear] fish of the Persian gulf, are obtained from the bed of the sea by divers, who bring up as many of the oysterlike shells as they can and then place them in heaps on the shore covered with sand. They are left for several days while the fish decay and the shells open, after which the sand is sifted and the pearis found. They are then cleansed and pol- ished. The value of the pear! depends on its size, roundness, color and bright- ness. The most renowned pearls were the two which formed Cleopatra’s ear- rings, one of which she dissolved ina goblet of vinegar and drank to the health of her guest, Mark Antony.

The remaining pearl became the prop- erty of the Emperor Augustus, who had it cut in two for earrings for his daugh- ter Julia. Another historic pearl records a@ similar act of extravagancenearer our own time. It is said that at a banquet given to Queen Elizabeth on the open- ing of the Royal Exchange Sir Thomas Gresham ground a precious pearl to powder and drank it in a goblet of wine to the health of his royal guest. —Chi- cago News.

Could Not Rest.

‘*T take great pleasure in recommending Hood’s Sarsaparilla to others. It has been the means of restoring my wife to good health. She was stricken down with an attack of nervous prostration. She suf- fered with headaches and her nerves were under severe strain. She became very low spirited and so weak she could only do a little work without resting. Her appetite was poor, and being so weak she could not get the proper rest at night. She decided to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla, as we had heard it highly praised, and I am giad to state that Hood’s Sarsaparilla has perfectly cured all her ailments.” G.

Now and then she gets into a tight place and needs helping out.

THE EFFECT OF WIND ON LAKES

Attention has been calfd to the very remarkabje effect of the wind on vari- ous inland bodies of water. It is not unusual for the residents in towns on the shores of lakes to be greatly incon- venienced, provided a heavy wind blow- ing on shore continues for any length of time. In the Baltic sea the level has been altered for upward of eight feet. Sometimes the water is blown out of a channel, leaving it almost dry. In one instance a depression of six feet oc- curred on one side of a body of water, With a corresponding rise of six feet on the other. Lake Erie has been known to alter its level a distance of 15 feet on account of heavy winds, and Lake Michigan was at one time the subject of considerable interest from the same cause. The wind was heavy and contin uous and piled the water up on one side, while the other was so low that people walked out upon rocks where in the memory of man no feet had ever trodden.—New York Ledger.

How Mines Are Exploded,

There are several methods by which mines and torpedoes anchored in har- bors may be detected, but itis very dan- gerous and difficult work, and its suc- cess depends largely upon the circum- stances and the condition of the water and the bottom of the bay in which they are placed. Sometimes they are discoy- ered by dragging with a kedge. Some- times they can be seen when the water is clear, and in order to assist the natu-

ral vision a canvas telescope is rigged |

which drops upon the water and shuts out the light from the eyes of the ob- server so that he can have a better view of the bottom. There are other methods also known to sailors and frequently practiced. Ths most effective is called *‘countermining’’—that is, the explo- sion of torpedoes in the water, which by their detonation cause the mines to explode.—Chicago Record.

Druggists’ Lights. An apothecary found himself minus his red light one night, at a time when it was customary for tradesmen of his

. ‘ ' class to ornament their store fronts with

a simple red lamp. To supply his need he took a glass boctle filled with a red fluid and placed a candle behind it. The effect so pleased him that he added an- other. Rival druggists illuminated their windows, increasing the number of lights and also chauging the colors. Thus the entire town followed the lead. So it became the fashion.—Christian Work.

CURIOUS ITALIAN CIGARS

A curious cigar seen in the Italian quarter of the city, where it is made and sold, is about 7!4 inches in length aud very slender, being not much big- ger around than an all tobacco cigarette, and almost uniform in size for the greater part of its length. At the end that is placed in the mouth this cigar is made around a piece of straw an inch and a half in length, which projects about a quarter of an inch clear of the tobacco. When the cigar is made, a broom splint long enough to reach al- most to the lighting end of the cigar is run through the straw, and the cigar is made around that. The broom splint is cut long enough so that a quarter or half an inch of it projects clear of the straw motthpiece.

When the cigar is to be smoked, the broom splint is withdrawn. The open- ing through it where the splint was makes the cigar draw freely, and the section of straw at the slender end keeps the cigar open there. These cigars, nade of strong, dark tobacco, are sold at retail for a cent each.—New York Sun.

Commerce of the Philippines.

The commerce of these islands has been estimated by some authorities at $50,000,000 a year, but it is probably much greater, the chief exports being sugar, tobacco and hemp. Of Manila cigars the yearly product is several hun- dred million, one factory alone employ- ing 10,000 hands, and of Manila hemp the yearly product is probably 200,000 tons. One factory in Manila produces 40,000,000 cigarettes in a single year.

The imports are also of enormous value. The United States sends the Philippines chiefly kerosene oil and

flour, while England, Germany and France sell them print cloths, white drilling, hardware, canned goods, ete. There are other large towns in the islands, but most of the imports are Janded at Manila and are shipped to them by local steamers. One company alone has 27 steamers engaged in local and coastwise trade, their ships ranging in size from 500 to 8,000 tons.—Isaac M. Elliott in Scribner’s.
