The city of Philadelphia is reported
to have made a profit of nearly $300,000
last year from its gas works.

A lumber trust representing $70,000, -
000 capital, has been formed on the
Pacific coast. Prices will be advanced.

French imports for 18% decreased
152,000,000 francs and exports in-
creased 310,000,000 francs compared
with 1894.

A sealing expedition is fitting out at

The Chesapeake oyster beds are rap-
idly diminishing in productiveness.
Fifteen years ago they furnished about
10,000,000 bushels of oysters. The

Starfishvhave caused immense dam—
age among Connecticut oyster beds
this season.
$8,000 in the last few months in an cf-

SILK THREADS.

The business of producing silk may
be prosecuted with success all over the
middle and southern states of this coun—
try.

Superstitious persons say that a wart
cut off by tying a silk thread round it
and drawing the ends tightly will never
return. 7

The silk from cocoons containing
male insects is said to be stronger and
better than that from cocoons made by
females.

In the early machines, electricity was
generated by turning a large glass
wheel which rubbed against. a silken
band or cloth.

The canopy of Mohammed’s tomb
at Mecca is made: of the heaviest variety
of black silk manufactured especially
for this purpose. .

During the reign of Justinian Thebes,
Corinth and Argos were the leading
European centers for the manufacture
of silk.

The .silken thread is spun from two
orifices in the nose of the silk worm, the
two threads being united by a gelatin-
ous substance.

Among the spoils taken by Judas
Maccabaens from the Syrians, whom he
defeated in battle in the year 166 B. C.,
was a quantity of silk.

After Napoleon was crowned emperor
his imperial toes became so tender that
re could wear Only new silken stock-
ings. He never wore a. pair but three

 

- days, then put on another, the discarded

stockings becoming the perquisite of
his valet.

NOSES OF GREAT MEN.

Mozart had a very large, straight
nose. .

The nose of Beethoven was large,
thick and ill-shaped.

Goethe had a large Roman nose,
rather more bent than usual in that
type.

The duke of 'Wellington was blessed
wit-h a Roman nose of generous pro-
portions.

Caesar had a large Roman nose. It
was, in fact, out of proportion with the
rest of his face.

The first. duke of Marlborough had a
huge Roman nose, the nose of a mili-
tary conqueror.

A portrait bust of Hannibal, which
has come down to us from Roman
times, represents him with a strong
Roman nose.

Atilla, the Hun, had a. nose much
larger than was common among his
people. ~It was, however, of the snub
variety, the nostrils opening directly
forward.

Alexander “the Great had a straight.
nose. It was rather more prominent
than usual, and toward the latter part
of his short life became red from his
dissipated habits.

Dr. Hand’s flolic Cure in Sou'h Boston.

South Boston, Mass, March l9,
1895.—“Dr. Hand’s Remedies for Chil-
dren have been of such benefit to me, I
desire to write a short testimonial. I
am the mother of six children, and in
the past few years have used Dr.
Hand’s Colic Cure and Dr. tland’s
Chafing Powder, and would never be
without them. For colicky babies
nothing ever made equals Dr. Hand’s
Colic Cure—Mrs. Charles E. Molloy,‘
17 thon street.” At H. R. Hale’s, 2.c

A Bethel Hatter Disappears.

John Ferry, a batter, living in New-
town and working in Bethel, has disap
peared. His wife’s younger sister, May
Harririgton, fifteen years old, has also

three years. The couple are said to
have been traced to New Milford,
Where they purchased tickets for Al-
bany. Mrs. Ferry is trying to locate
them. .

Trvo Lives Saved, _

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of junction City,
111. was told by her doctors she had Con'
sumption, and that there was no hope
for her, but two bottles of Dr. King’s
New Discovery complc tel ycured her and
she says it saved her life. Mr. Thomas
Eggers, 139 Florida Sc, San Francisco,
suffered from a dreadful cold, approach-
ing Consumption; tried without result
everything else, then bought one bottle
of Dr. King’s New Discovery and in two
weeks was cured. He is naturally thank-
ful. It is such results, of which these are
samples, tuat prove the wonderful efficacy
of this medicine in coughs and colds.

Mystic Shrine Division.

It is not unlikely that the movement
to divide the jurisdiction of Connecti-
cut and organize a temple of the Mys~‘
tic Shrine in Hartford may result in
the transfer of Pyramid Temple of
Bridgeport,the only one in the state, to
Hartford. The temple has about 500
members, including prominent Masons
from all ove‘r'the state. Only a frac-
tion of theseIlive inlBridgeport.

Lowell, Mass, April 30, 1894.+“My
little baby, now fifteen weeks’ old, has.
since birth, suffered greatly from wind
colic.- All remedies failed to ease him
until aladv friend recommended Dr.
Hand’s Colic Cure. I tried it, and

fully advise all mothers wishing a sure

Hand’s Colic Cure—Mrs. A. L. Stur

SCIENTIFIC JOTTINGS.

This year is the tercentenary of the
birth of Descartes, the father of modern
metaphysical speculation.

A Hungarian scientific expedition un:

der the lead of M. E. Szalay has justleth
linda-Pesth for Ceylon. whc re it will col-
lect zoological and ethnographical ma—
terial.
' Twenty-five sarcophagi have been
("scovered near Angouleme, several of
the skeletons in them maisuring six
feet seven inches in length. They are
believed to have been Gauls.

The sun. if hollow, would hold 300.000
earth globes, and an eye capable of
hourly viewing 10,000 square? influx
would require 55,000 years to see all its
surface. ‘-

One peculiarity of pearls is that. ur—
like other precious gems, they are lashi’e
to decay. Occasionally a valuable pr. url
changes color, seems to be attac'.:c..l
with a deadly disease and crumbles into
dust. , -
Some idea of .“the vast extent
of the surface of the earth may be ob-
tained when it is noted that. if a lofty
church steeple is ascended, and the
landscape visible from it. looked at,
900,000 such landscapes must be viewed
in order that the whole earth may be
seen.

Neptune, the outermost member of
the solar system yet known, is 30 tin-es
farther from the sun than the earth is,
or 2,780,000,000 miles, and the tremen—
dous line of his orbit, which incloses our
comparative] y small group of heavenly
bodies, is so long that, although his rule
of. travel is ‘three miles in a. second. it
takes him 165 years to complete one
circuit.

GATHERED ABROAD.

The king of Corea has ordered the

ning with this year.

Eight hundred fishermen were car-

For the first. time the Finster-
Aarliorn, the highest of the Bernese
Alps; has been climbed in winter. Prof.
FisCher, with the guide Almer,‘accom-
plished the feat a short time ago.

When a handsome man visits the
northeastern portion of Tartary, the in-
habitants kill him because he is good
looking. They don’t want his clothes
or his money; they simply want his
soul to remain among them.

Camel’s flcsh is the latest addition
to the Parisian bill of fare, Algerian
butchers undertaking to provide the
supply. The meat is said to taste like
beef, though white like veal. , 'l'hc
hump is considered a great delicacy by
the Arabs.

Telegram post cards have been sent
or some years past in Paris by pneu-
matic tubes. It is now proposed to use
the pneumn tic system to convey letters
not only from the sub-stations to the
main office, but also to the railroad
stations.
