A Bit OF Romance.

For several days a lady from Glas-
gov, Missouri, named Stinsley has been
in this city in search of her hus-
band, who has been at work as a labor
er on the bridge during the winter, but
who, for some unexplained cause, had
left there and was working in the city.
The lady made diligent inquiries ali
around town for her liege lord, but oil
her searching, and the help of others,
failed to elicit the desired information
until she happened to think of small
"blonde dog with stumpy tail and
his ears cut of, which she said was the
constant companion of her husband.
One of the boys who lives at the VAL
ley House, where she is stopping, hap
Pened to see O dog OF this description
last Saturday, on Church street, and
forthwith he captured the canine and
bore him in triumph to the delighted
lady, who Immediately recognized him
as her husbands pet. The dog, how.
ever, was not exactly the member of
the family she was the most anxious
about, strange to say, and she was
almost Responding. Then the happy
thought of tying a note to his neck sue-
gested itself to her, and she forthwith
acted upon the suggestion, aud the dog
was turned out to seek his master. Tho
result was just what was hoped for, and
IN two hours the husband was in the
arms of his overjoyed wife. That dog
is hero now ut the Valley House, and
when he dies the happy couple will
doubtless embalm him and erect n
monument to his memory, unless in
the flight of time matters should face
about to such an extent that they are
led to kill him and sell his carcass to
the sausage makers for doing what they
might deem an untoward and calam1.

plantajR Juice.

~, Jamaica is exporting plantain juice.
This plantain Juice ia pressed from
the pulpy stems of the plantain and
banana tree, which, but for late exper-
iments on the valuable qualities of the
sap, would be thrown away as worth
less. The fruit is not used for this
purpose at all ; that is gathered and en-
loyed by itself as formerly; and Hum
boldt estimates the nutritive yield of
an acre in plantains to be more than is
given by potatoes or yams. The food
product remains the same, and the
stems, worth from 800 to 5000 per
acre in Jamaica and Santo Domingo,
may be called a clear additional
profit. THIS plantain juice, so
common, yet so long left untried and
unknown, is gummy substance capa.
BILE of being turned into an article az
beautiful and capable of ornamental
uses rs the best po1oicr-neachc, at much
less cost. A French gentleman, who
had experimental with the sap of the
plantain and the fibre of the zamiaca
(another nearly unknown and nearly
untried gift of the trop1cs), states that
their combination produced u splendid
article for book covers. cit would
be-" he said, "the most exquisitely
beautiful and the most durable materi-
al that had ever been produced with a
reasonable regard to economy

The California Pearl Fisheries

. A writer in the Overland Monthly
says: Perl fishing is still carried on in
the Gulf of California, with varying
success. 1 was informed by German
merchant of this place, who is engaged
in purchasing the pearls for the Euro
pean Market, that the value of the yield
for the year 1868 amounted to $40, 600.
To procure the oyster, the primitive
mode of diving, by the native Mexican
Indians, is still used. Doubtless q
greater success would attend the use of
the diving or dredging apparatus, either
OF which might be used in deeper water
than could be reached by the ordinary
method of diving. The shell which
produces the rich purple dye that was
SO much sought after by the ancient
Mexicans for coloring their fabrics, is
found clingiHg to the rocks in many
localities on this coast, and I also
found it in the island of Secorro. which
is situated about 26O miles west of Cape
Currienties. have seen the Indians
collect this dye in the Bay of Bander-
as, below San Bios from the shells.as
they chung to the rocks. After the
shell is detached from the rocks, the
substance is elected by the animal and
caught in small cups by the collector.
This beautiful purple dye is held in
high estimation by the Zapotaco In
dams OF Tehuantepec, for coloring COT
ton cloth of their own manufacture.

1t is that indigo can be produced arti.

CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The mos,
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of C0nsump-
ton, cured by this preparation, are public.
" known, SO remarkable as hardly to he be-
lieved, were they not proven beyond dispute.
As remedy it is adequate, on which the public
may rely for full protection. BY curing Coughs,
the foreruNners Of more serious disease, it saves
unnumbered lives, and an amount Of suffering
not to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand as protection against the early
and unperceived attack Of Pulmonary Affections,
which are easily met at first, but which become
incnrable, and too eften FATAL if neglected. Ten
DER lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to
be without it. As a safeguard 10 children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest of childhood, CHERRY PICTORIAL
is invaluable; for, by its timely use, multi.
mdes are rescued from premature graves, and
saved to the love and affection centred on them.
1t acts speedily and surely against ordinary colds,
securing sound and health restoring sleep. No
one will suffer troublesome Influenza and pain

they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toll

Dentine, the peculiar material of
which teeth are formed, and the enamel
covering them, offers extraordinary re-
sistance to those chemical agencies,
which resolve other animal remains
into nothingness. Mounds in the west,
tumuli in Europe and Asia, which are
believed to antedate sacred history for
thousands of years, yield up perfectly
sound teeth, on which time appenrs to
have no impression whatever.
