The figures are raised on light back
ground, which is very effective. Flowers
are also introduced of wax and linen tied
together with bright-colored ribbon.
Ammonia for Bloat.-A California
farmer recently cured, almost instantly, a
COW which had suddenly become seri-
ously bloated from eating cucumbers too
rapidly, by giving tablespoonful and a
half of ammonia in half pint of water.
The relief was immediate and complete.
A solution of five parts of borax in
one hundred of water it is said will pre-
vent the putrefactive process in meats for
considerable time; flesh, dipped in the
mixture and then dried resists the usual
processes of decomposition. For dissect-
ing rooms, the taxidermist, and those en-
gagged in preparing cabinet specimens of
animal tissues, this solution can be put to
important uses.
CALLS FEET JELLY.-Take two Calls

Strain it, and when cold, skim the fat en-
tirely off. Add to this the white of six
eggs well beaten, pint of wine, half a

lemons and let them be well mixed. Boil
the whole for a few minutes, stirring con-
stantly, and then pass it through flannel

A BEAUTIFUL WoMAN.-The perceptive
faculty of women is usually keener than
the same chronological organ in men.
Woman knows that beauty rather than
genius is worshipped by the sterner sex.
A man may talk with his lips of the latter
to his lady-love, but the keenness of the
woman knows that he is thinking of the
former in his heart. All women have an
innate desire to please their 6eaur. They
are fond of admiration, hence one of their
longings is to be beautiful The grand
secret of female beauty is health the Sc
cret of health is the power to eat, digest
and assimilate a proper quantity of whole
some food. Take VINEGAR BITTERs. 1t
will cleanse the stomach, tone the vital
organs, give perfect digestion, purify
the blood, clear up the complexion and
produce a state of mental and physical
electricity which gives symmetry of form,
bright eyes, white skin, glossy hair and
genuine type of female loneliness which
no cosmetic can compare with. 10

appointments, its tendency would be to secure
better class of officers in all respects. None but
competent persons could discharge the duties OF
such institutions, and no man or party, having
reputation to sustain, would be willing to commit
interests so important to unworthy hands. The
Government would seek its principal agents and
employees among experienced men, wherever they
could be found. A numerous force of additional
officers would not be required Many persons al
ready employed in the postal service could be made
to discharge portion of the required duties. A
force far less than that now needed in savings
banks would be sufficient with the assistance OF
the machinery of the post-ofce, to accomplish the
supervising bureau in the Postofice Department,
and the.necessary accounting officers in the Treas
uury, is all that would be needed - !.
Reason and philanthropy being thus sustained by
the prolonged experience of so many people speak
ing the English language, how can the success of
similar institutions in the United States be longer
doubtful? believe that the financial perls through
which we are now passing could have been mainly
averted if these institutions had been open to re-
ceive deposits. The people of this country can earn
more and deposit more than those of any other.
The State of New York alone exhibits an aggregate
of savings bank deposits equal to those of the
whole United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire
land; and it is not extravagant to say that if
spirit of universal frugality could be encouraged by
an assurance of good faith and absolute security,
the savings of the American people, would soon
grow into such gigantic proportions that the volun-
tary loans of single generation would exceed the
whole OF the national debt.
POSTAL TELEGRAPH.
The telegraph should be made part of the post
al system without further delay. As Congress
does not seem inclined to exercise the discretion
given in the third section of the act of July "a,
1866, to appoint appraisers to value the Lines,
property, and effects of the companies now in
operation; and, as the Western Union Company
appears to be unwilling to make voluntary sale
at fair price, recommend that provision be
made by law for the immediate establishment of
the postal telegraph, and for the construction of
,n1,1 H. III
ton of competent officers of the Engineer Corps
of the army. The experience they acquired dur
ing the war of the rebellion would enable them to
do the work in the most economical and satsfac-
tory manner.

The well-known Mason g. Hamlin Organ
Company have received honors at Vienna At
the Exposition they were awarded the highest
medal for the best instruments of this class in
the world, and the Industrial Society of Aus

Diploma of Honor for the extraordinary ex-

has never been conferred on more than five
Americans. No other American manufacturer
of cabinet or parlor organs has ever succeeded
in obtaining any award in competition with
European makers. This is the second time
the Mason & Hamlin Organ Company have
come out ahead in such comparisons, as they
took the first medal in Paris in 1867. This COM

world, have just reduced their prices to CORE
