The Buddhist hell, or jigoku. is a
novel conception. A picture of the

A. very interesting discovery is said to
have been made by the experts who are
ncwexamining the coilcclicn of papyri
consisting of many thousand rolls
which were found at El Fayoum in
Egypt. and were acquired by the Arch-

among the rolls are several autograph
letters of the prophet Mahomet.

Daniel Webster once wrote. after
continued provocation. to the editor of
anewspaper which referred to his pri-
vate ad'airs. and especially to his not pay-

“It is true that I have not always paid
my debts punctually. and that I owe
money. One cause of this is that I have
not pressed those who ‘owe me. ' . Assn

their surroundings are not dangerous.
Yet ice houses. and particularly those
in New England and on the Hudson

There is, perhaps, no city on the con-
tinent where divorcee are of such easy
procurement as San Francisco. The
courts. as a very natural result, are
literally besieged with applicants. The
traditional story of the woman who
' desired to procure a separation because
her husband was afflicted with cold feet
found a parallel the other day. in the
eagerness with which it was urged as a
ground for divorce that the husband
dyed his hair ,with offensive and bad
colored compounds.
One of the curiositia of the New
Orleans Exposition was an air-flower
from the city of Mexico. It was two
inches long, and resembled a beetle
with wings and horns. The wings were
of light sea-green color. dotted with
specks. The horns were snow-white.
and at the points were very short. The
bedy of the flower was pale yellow and
deep orange, and gavea slight hyacinth
perfume. Including the broad banana-
shapcd leaves, the entire plant looked
as though moulded in war.
The Germans have already a fair share
of the passenger trade between Europe
and the United States. and they are
about to try to break the virtual monop-
‘oly of English and French companies in
the East. Five steamers are to work
thelEast Asiatic line from Bremerhaven
to Shanghai and back, and there is tobe
another line to Australia and the Samoa
Islands. The German steamers will
carry letters and passiongcrs from Lon-
don andParls to Shanghai and Hong
Kong infour days less than the Penin-
Ftsula and Oriental. and the Mossageries
Maritimes take to do the journey and,
unless fire English and French com-
panies mend their speed. the German
competition will be formidable. Pas-

There appears to be an agreement
among medical writers that water is
fattening or at least favors a fullness

A Brazilian physician, Dr. Ramos,

Nature odors very little encourage-

Colusa County was recently bridged by
a one-hundred - and-seventy - five-thou-

completed than the stream split in the
centre, and now flows at either end of
the structure, which extends over an
island in the middle of the water.
" Mr. Parnell's grandfather. Commo-

The French Minister of ' War has just
authorized the wearing of the beard in
the army. Officers and subaltcrns are
to be allowed to wear either mustach or
heard, as they like. provided the latter
be sufficiently short to leave the badges
of their collars unconcealed. Corporals
and privates will wear full beards. But
the Minister of War takes of! in one
direction what he ‘ allows" in another,
for he takes care toenforce the rule that
the hair of the head‘shall be kept short.
especially at the book. These regula-
tions concerning the ",back hair " and
whiskers of the French soldiers“ have
naturally aroused not a little amusement
and have supplied material for innumer-
able quips and jokes. But it is explained
that the minister had good and sufficient
reasons for the reform just brought
about. One immediate result of the
reform will be that French soldiers will
present a curious appearance on parade .

There can be no lightning without
thunder and rain. The lightning seen
of a summer evening, sometimes called
heat lightning, is an accompaniment of
a distant storm. The lightning can be
seen much further than the thunder can
be heard.
A pulley thirty-four feet in diameter
and eighty-three tons in weight has
been made in England. The rim will

Oil from pine wood is now manufac-
tured on a considerable scale in the
South. The material is subjected to
intense heat in sealed retorts, and one
cord of it is said to yield fifteen gallons
of turpentine, eighty gallons of pine
wood oil, fifty bushels of charcoal, one
hundred and fifty gallons of wood
vinegar, and a quantity of inflammable
gas and asphaltum.
‘ Japanese lacquer ware. known the
world over as the most superb for beauty
and quality, is made from lacquer fur-
nished by the sap of the Bhus vernici-
fera. a tree cultivated especially for this
product. It is a dirty grey viscous
liquid, which is refined by straining and
decantation. It is absolutely necessary
for the lacquered articles to be dried in
a damp atmosphere to insure the requis-
ite hardness.
To test the enamel or tinning of cock-
ing vessels, &c., for lead. M. Ferdoz
suggests a drop of nitric acid, strong,
placed upon the enamel or tinning, and
evaporated to dryness by gentle heat.
The spot where the acid acts is then
watted byadrop of potassium iodide solu-
tion—five parts iodide to 100 of water—
when the presence of lead is at once
shown by the formation of lead iodide.

potency for removing inflammation of

Some experiments on a large butcher's
dog, with reference to the efi'ects of sun—
dry beverages on digestion, have been
recently described by Signor Ogata.
The following conclusions (which may
not be strictly applicable to man, accus-
tomed to the drinks named) were
reached: (1) Water, inmoderatc amount
do not disturb digestion. (2) Beer, wine
and brandy retard digestion consider-
ably at first, till absorbed; and in the
case of beer, the extractive matters not
thus as well as the alcohol. Thus beer
retards digestion more than wine con-
taining the same quantity of alcohol.
(3) Sugar cane and grape) retards di-
gestion considerably. (4) Common salt
accelerates it distinctly.
Anovel use ismade of the stereoscopc
to detect forged bank notes. A note
of a hundred francs was recently sub-
mitted to the experts of the Bank of
France as issued by a band of forgers,
but the execution was so perfect that no
defect could be discovered by the
closest examination. A suggestion was
then made to place the suspected note
side by side with the genuine one in
the objective of a stereoscope, the two
images of which, as well known, overlay
each other and form a single picture.
The result of the experiment was that
the loop ,in aletter of the forged note
did not exactly cover that of the genu-
ine one, showing that they had not
been printed from the same plate.
A convenient method for rendering
ordinary drawing-paper transparent for
the purpose of making tracings, and of
removing its transparency so as to
restore its former appearance when the
drawing is completed. has been invented
by M. Puscher. It consists in dissolv-
ing a given quantity of castor oil in
one, two or three volumes of absolute
alcohol, according to the thickness of
the paper, and applying it by means of
a sponge. The alcohol evaporates in
a few minutes and the tracing-paper is
dry and ready for immediate use. " The
drawing or tracing can be made either
with lead-pencil or India ink, and the
oil removed from the paper by immers-
ing itin absolute alcohol, thus restoring
its original opacity. The alcohol
employed in removing the first oil is, of
course, reserved for diluting the oil
used in preparing the next sheet.
. According to the Organedes Mines, of
Paris, the paper rail is to become a
practical reality. That journal states
thata company is about to establish
large works for making rails from paper
near St. Petersburg. The paper is sub-
jected to great pressure, and it is said
that the material is extremely durable
and can be procured at one-third the
cost of steel rails. A further advantage
would be in their lightness, not only on
account of the saving of the cost of car-
riage and laying but also because they
could be made in longer lengths than is
the case at the present time, therefore
the number of joints will be fewer and
consequently less oscillating to the car-
riages, and the wear and tear to both
permanent wayand rolling-stock reduced
to a minimum.

Among spring preparations, do not neg-
lect that which 1s most important of all—
your own body. During the winter the
blood absorbs many impurities, which if
not ex ellcd, are liable to break out in
scrofu a or other disease. The best spring
medicine is Hood’s Sarsaparillu. It cxpcls
every impurity from the blood, and gives
siren th to every function of the body.

THE USE OF COSMETICS,
is becoming a serious matter to many a
woman. ’l‘heconstant use of them will
certainly destroy the skin. Why use these
poisons when Pearl’s White Glycerinc

beautiful and healthful complexion. If
your skin is dry and yellow from the use
of poisons, Pearl’s White Glycerinc will
return it to a clear. pure and soft condition;

A BURGLAR CAPTURED.
This morning about two o’clock, John
Wood, the well-known plumber who re-
sides on Main Street, was awakened by
hearing glass break. 0n getting out of
bed he received a blow on the head. He
immediately grappled with the burglar,
and after a terrible struggle succeeded in
holding him until his wife obtained help.
On being searched at the station, Mr
Wood's watch and wallet was ‘found on
his person. He gave the name of Robert

A PUBLIC BENRFACTION.
How to laundry linen as it is done in
Troy, N. Y., has been kept a secret long
enough; it can and should be done in
every family. The Elastic Starch is the
only starch in the UniledStutcs that is put
up by men who have a practical know-
ledge of the laundry profession. It requires
no cooking, keeps the Iron from sticking,
and linen from blistering while ironing,
and gives shirts, cuffs and collars that
stiffness and beautiful polish they have
when new, which,cvcrybody knowskceps
them clean twice as long. Beware of im-
itations. See that the name J. 0. Hub-

ORANGE, Conn., January 10, 1883. ‘ \
Messrs. Lewis 8:. Co. :— '
Gentlemen—I have suffered with Chills
and Fever and Malaria for the past two
years, residin during that time at 780
Chapel street, cw Haven, Conn. I used
quinine‘ in its various forms, and a great
deal of it. While I could prevent the
ChillsIcould not l‘ld my system of the
poison. For some time last summer I
was so weak that I could sit up but very
little. My countenance was shallow, and
quinine failed to give me an. appetite, or
to act perceptibly as a tonic. In this con-
dition began the use of your Lewis’ Red
Jacket Bitters. Immediately I felt their
effects. In two weeks I was nearly in my
usual health. I used two bottles since
that time. Whenever I have a recurrence‘
of malarial symptoms I use a few doses of
the Bitters, and I certainly consider them
amost valuable remedy. They are my
medicine. Iieipeclfully‘ yours,
. T. . WARNER.
