Scudamore, the Geographic Bismarck
of England, at whose suggestion the
Government determined to buy up all
the private telegraphic companies in
the nation, has Just issued his first off.
cial report which shows, as the result of
that policy, that the telegraph, after
paying expenses, will yield the present
year net profit Of e350,00O to the
Chancellor Of the Exchequer This
income is derived from the private mes.
sages, newspaper dispatches, and the
business of mercantile firms. Judging
from the increase of business since the
telegraph changed hands, Mr.. Scuba.
more estimates the number of private
dispatches for the ensuing year at more
than 100000. The increase in the
press messages is equally surprising.
The average business Of mercantile
firms is 6 900 words per day. These fig.
ures furnish an important hint to our
Government, which we should be glad
to see il profit by.

Brush for EireMnnd.

John Davis, Of Decatur, ILL.,, urges
Western farmers TO cultivate quick
growing timber, as Lombardy Poplar,
Soft Maple, Willows, etc, TO be cut
yearly, the cuttings TO be bound into
bundles and used as frewood, when it
will burn slowly and make good fuel.
His attention was first called TO the
subject by burning bundles of cuttings
in his office stove, which were left over
from sales and planting out. This plan
ia recommended for immediate use in
treeless and coalless sections Of the Wet,
and as substitute for ears Of corn as
frewood.

charms, but renders even the plainest counte-
nance exceedingly attractive. 1t recalls to the
pallid cheek the rosy tinge of health, removes
pimples, blotches, roughness, sallowness and
other blemishes, and imparts TO the skin a most
delicate fairness and softness. 1t smooths the
burrows caused by time or care, and gives the
face neck and arms the plump and engaging
appearance of youthful beauty. All this is ac-
complished by the most natural means, viz: by
gently and naturally stimulating the circulation
in the capillary blood vessels Besides being
the most effectual aid to beauty known to mod
ern science.
