Whenever properly applied. One or two ap-
plications is oil that is necessary to save any
crop Of potatoes. 1t is cheap, easily applied,
and is cert in.
This is the only compound which has been
discovered that will protect tho potato frou,
tho ravagcs Of this great pest. Persistent
| "bugging," costing heavily in time, ouiy rar-
TALLY save the vines; Paris Green will kill
them, but it must bo re-applied after cvcry
! wind or rain storm, and this is costly. The
inventor has saved his crops with only ono Mp
plication, whom tho bugs we're making fearful
ravages oil around him aud is certain that
| only rarely will more than two applications
| ever be necessary.
In order to protect his rights the discoverer
! has patented tho invention, but desires to
place it within the rcnch Of all. by the sale OF
township, county. and State rights to cncrgot-
ic men who will push the sale OF the article.

The experiment which has been made during

quite surprising. In all things there are some

AN.-SbOrtly after Bucbanan's return from
Russia, in 1884, to which he had been sent
by President jackson in 1882, aud immedl-
Of the United States by the Legislature OF
Pennsylvania, to fill the unexpired term of
William Wilkins, resigned (who in his
turn was cent to succeed Buchanan in his
foreign missioD), Buchanan called upon
old Hickory with "a fair English lady,
whom he desired to present to the head OF
the American nation. Leaving her in the
reception room down stairs, he assembled
to the Presidents private quarters, and
found General Jackson, unshaved, un-
kempt, in his dressing gown, with his slip
pered feet on the fender before a blazing
wood Gre, smoking corn-cOb pipe of ti'e
old Southern school. He stated his object,
when the General said he would be very
glad to meet the handsome acquaintance of
the new bachelor Senator. MIR. Buchanan
was always careful of hls personal appear.

masculine Miss Fr.bble, addicted to spot
less cravats and huge collars, rather proud
of a small foot for man of his large stat

ladies would call ga very good figure"
Having just returned from q visit to the
fashionable continental circles, after two
years of thorough intercourse with the
etiquette of one Of the stateliest courts in
idea Of the President meeting the eminent
English lady in such q guise, and ventured
to ask If he did not intend to change his
attire, whereupOn the old warrior rose,

The man who became President in 1856
was fond Of saying that this remark of Au-
drew Jackson Inundated him more than
any rebuke he had ever received. He
walked down airs to meet his fair charge,
and in very short time President Jackson
entered the room, dressed in full suit Of
black, clearly shaved, with his stubborn
white hair forced back from his remarkab BILE

EcuADoR.-This republic is probably
the most perfect model, at the present
time, of a nation whose people and Govern
ment are thoroughly, Catholic. AS this is
the only State which has so far officially
protested against the Italian iniquities,
perpetrated at Rome, the folio wing sketch
may be worth recording. Ecuador is
larger than France, having an an area of
10, 800 geographical miles. Its population,
however, is "nty million and a half; of
whom 81, 600 reside in the capital city of
Quito. The Government is democratic,
aud consists of a President, elected every
sixth year, and two representative Cham
bers-the Senate, elected for nine years,
and the Second Chamber, elected for six
years. The religion of the Republic is ex-
clusively Catholic, and, to exercise the
rights of citizenship, it is necessary to be a
Catholic, to be able to read and write, and
to be twenty one years of age. By Con-
cordat with the Holy See the fullest free
~ immense progress has been made in
matters of education. The universities
teach theology, law, medicine and science.
Ecuador also boasts its own academies of
painting, sculpture, and music; whilst the
astronomical observatory, of considerable
importance, has been copfided to the care
of q pupil Of the celebrated jesuit astrono-
mer, Father Secchi. 1t 10 worthy of note
that the State prisons, under the old irreli
