This new town-christened Boscobel Gan
Italian term meaning beautiful grove,) is Sit
luated on the liha Of the Milwaukee MIsss-
lsippi R.R. fifteen miles west OF Muscoda and
seven miles above the last cross ing of Wis.
River. The only R. r. Depot between Mus
coda and the River, is situated near the center
Of thetown.
It is certain that the terminus OF the Rail
Road for The coming winter will be at this
|point.
New is the VERY BEST TIME for set
tiers and specu 'atars. The most beautiful and
in every way most desirable lots for dive Kings
as well as the ONLYvainable business lots are
located on the property we offer
This town on account OF its location must be
the business center Of large and unriyalled
tract CT country whose resources can never
be cut off or directed in any other channel ow-
ing to the imposslbilty of building parallel
Rail Roadnear the line Of the Milwaukee &
Mississippi.
Inaddition 10 these advantages the place is
intersected By clear and beautiful stream,
sufficient Tor mill purposes. The location is
healthy one, and for beauty cannot b. sur
passed in this region of country. Buildings
of every description are needed here-Hotels,
Stores, Dwelling Houses. and Shops every
thing ip tfe shape Of building will be in de-
mand the coming winter. For.further partie-

wherein it was stated that common ladder,

and placed at an angle Of forty-6ve degreess

A friend Of ours, somewhat posted in
"henology," says lis q small matter, but, a.
the same time incorrect. He says the ladder
should be made Eve feet vide, the cross
pieces or rounds with square edges, and one
inch in diameter, and placed eighteen inches
apart. 1t should then be placed horizontally
and as high up as the roof Of fhe house will
admit, and fastened securely. The access oI

LIQUID Rocks.

DR.. BENJAMIN HARDMGx occupies four and
more oolums in the New York TRIBUNE, in
an advertisement setting out, what, if true, is
really wonderful discovery. The Doctor
claims TO be able to reduce quartz rock 10 q
liquid state. While in such state of lique-
faction he can extract every particle of gold
or other precious metal, and then. holding the
rock in its liquid state. put it in casks, trans
port it where needed, and turn 1t back
again into rock, in the form of brick, or blocks
OF stone. Some of the allegations in the
advertisement are blocked up BY certificates
from able chemists and metsIurgists
1t is a remarkable document, but bottling
up liquid stones is not more remarkable than
bottling up lightning, and who knows bui
that boys yet in :" throwing stone " will do SO
through the medium of "spirit gun" 1t
would sound strange indeed to see marble ad-
vertised for sale by the qurat OF the man
who carries junk bottle, it can then in truth
be said. the he has "pocket full of rocks. u
Sceptics yet will argue that David,s stone and
sling WAS a liquid with which he drugged
Goliath, and thus attempt to rob the A" Sun o.
