Am Eminent scientific MAN.

Explains why Prof. "Anderson's Der
mador'' acts so much more promptly than
other applications in curing sore parts, as
follows: The usual applications, such as
plasters and poultices, confne the heat, so
it escapes with difficulty, and the cure
must be slow.
The Dermador acts in direct opposition
to all such applications-it keeps the skin
moist and instead of confning it conducts
the heat off, and reduces the inflammation

takes advantage of dull times and an
overstocked market to lay in supply for
the time of need, which never fails to

good security. This offer is made and will

Pure Iron.

Absolutely pure iron is said
to have been produced by a
Russian chemist by means of
the galvanic battery. During
the process a large quantity of
hydrogen was disengsged from
the ordinary iron used. The
pure iron is silver. white met
al, very malleable and ductile,
and so soft as to be readily cut
with pair of scissors. 1t is
very different from iron which
has heretofore been supposed
to be pure. 1t oAidizes very
very rapidly, and water is de-
composed by 1t by the rapid
absc-r.;"n OF oxygen.
