JAPAN.-James Brooks writes from
Japan that the national food is fish.
There Is not an ocean or river creature
that the Japs do not eat, even sharks,
and the ugliert the more appetizing. And
most of the fish sold are not dead fish,
but living, jumping, wriggling, fish.
You buy an eel all squirming. The
flsh-market men bring their fish to the
market in water tubs, and the fishermen
keep huge bamboo water fish tank on
each side of the junks, into which they
throw the creatures that they haul up,
or in. SO much is thought of the fish
here, that on certain festival day every
family that has had a boy born during
the year hangs out great painted fish
TO boast of 1t. Mr.. Brooks says:
II thought once, while on the Nile,
that the Egyptians, who could turn
sands into gardens, were the great farm.
ers of the world; but the Egyptians
could make no such farming gardens as
these. Proud as am of the arts, marvel
Gus doings of my own country, / blush
when compare American farming with
this Here are rich fields artificially
created, luXuriant in beauty now, ter
raced from hill side up and down, and
watered by the hill streams, or not
watered, as the husbandman wills.
There arc barley fields, and bean fields
and fields Of all sorts of Japan agricul'
tural productions. Forests cap all the
hill tops. Two crops are raised in japan
IN one year, even on the rice fields.

Poisonous Medicines.

The theory that the virus of disease can be safely.
counteracted by doses of poison. is false and danger
Gus. Within the last twenty-five years, not less than
a score of virulent poisons have been added to the re-
~pository of the medical profession. They are given in
small doses, otherwise they would destroy life imme-
diately; but even in minute quantities. they produce.
ultimately. very disastrous effects. 1t is unwise and
unphilosophical to employ, az remedies, powerful and
insidious drugs, which, in subjugating one disease.
SOW the seeds of another still more unmanageable.
None of these terrible medicaments operates with as
much d~irectness and certainty upon the cause of dis
ease as Hostetter'sS Stomach Bitters, a tonic and cor
receive, loithoHt a single deleterioHs Ingredient in its COM
position. Arsenic and quinia are given for intermit-
tents bromide of potassium for nervous disorders;
strychnine and prussic acid for general debility pre-
parations of chloroform and opium for sleeplessness;
and yet these deadly drugs do not compare, as speci-
hcs for the diseases above enumerated. with that
wholesome vegetable invigorant and Alternative, while
they are all SO pernicious that 1t is astonishing any
physician should take the responsibility of prescribing
them. Let invalids, for their own sakes. try the Bit
tiers before they resort to the pOisons. The relief they
will experience from a course of the harmless specific.
will render a recourse to the unsafe preparations re-
ferred to, quite unnecessary. r-N 9Hs - FNl

Keeping Apples.

Having just read an account of a
writer's keeping apples a long time by
wrapping them in paper, and another
article in which it was stated that the
keeping in a sound condition was great
ly prolonged by keeping them from the
air, 1 will give my testimony to sub
stantiate the truth of the above asser-
tions. 1 have eaten apples in August
in a perfectly sound condition, that
we're wrapped in light paper the Octo-
Der previous. The Fourth of July has
been frequently celebrated by partak-
ing from a loaded dish of apples, as
we'll as from a pitcher of "-ice cool lem
onade." The former was not wrapped
in the paper until the close of
March. 1 think, by selecting the best
of fruit now, and carefully enveloping
each specimen separately in paper so
that the air cannot pass through, the
time of keeping in a sound and eatable
condition can be greatly prolonged.
After covering each apple with paper,
1 would select a tight wooden box and
cover it on the inside, or outside, with
paper either before, or after putting in
the fruit, as the case may be. Those
persons who are DESTROYS of preserving
a small quantity of apples will be am
ply repaid for their trouble by trying
the above experiment. The fruit should

Grand Gift Enterprise.

$. In placing before our readers the
grand gift enterprise in~augurated by the
Musical Society of Milwaukee, Wis, we
wish 10 recommend the merits of the
scheme to their careful consideration.
The originators of the enterprise are
widely and honorably known through
out the country, there being very few
musical organizations of equal merits in
the United States. Within the twenty
years of it's existence, this Musical So
ciety has gained the universal esteem
and support of Milwaukeeans as one of
their most prominent institutions. For
this reason the most widely known
business men of that city, foremost
among whom is the Hon. ALEXANDER
MITCHELL, President of the Milwaukee
and st. Paul R. R., and Representative
IN Congress of the First District of
Wisconsin, have not only given their
Endorsement, but also Their active inf1u-
enee to this enterprise, which is to take
the last obstacle of the society's future
away, by ameliorating the state of its
financial affairs. The scheme SO in
dorsed cannot but meet with confidence
and universal favor. Eighty Thousand
Z Dollars in gfeenbacks are to be distrib-
uted, among which there is one prize
of $4,000, and many others, amounting
to large sums. The tickets are sold at
50. Mr.. H. N. Hempsted. the we'll
known music dealer of Milwaukee, is
the general agent of the enterprise.

New BLEACHING PRoCEss.-In a new
bleaching process, the wool or silk, hav-
ing been first cleaned in the usual way,
is to be stepped for about an hour in a
solution of equal parts, by weight, of
oxalic acid and chloride of sodium in
clear, cold water, after which it is re-
moved from the bath and allowed to
drain, and is then washed in the ordin-
airy manner. The same bath may be
used repeatedly by adding at each fresh
charge of wool or silk a little more OK
Ole acid and chloride of sodium. The
materials, whilst in the bath, should be
stirred, and in the case of woven fab
RIGS they should be passed through roll
ers. Should it be required to impart a
blue color to the materials, the color
employed should be first dissolved, fiji
tered and strained, and then introduced
into the mordant bath, in proportion
varying with the shade required.
