LoZENGEs sold in shops and on street
corners, and continually offered to pas
sengers in railway cars, are frequently
wrapped in green paper. The Journal
of Chemistry states that it has sub

chemical analysis. The whole wrapper
for single roll of lozenges contained
twenty square inches. Sixteen square
inches were found to contain 2.34
grains of metallic arsenic, sufficient to

SPEAKING of the impoverished con-
diti0n of the South and the measures
calculated to restore its prosperity, the
New York Tribunesays: '1ftheSouth
could manufacture its own cotton it
would have work and wages for the
idle. To othis it needs capital. Mills
have been established in some places
and are doing well; there are thirteen
cotton mills in Alabama, and nothing
but the want of capital prevents their
erection ut all the centers of cotton
production which are now suffering
most severely for the lack of food. In
manufacturing enterprises, however,
the South is unable to make single
step without help from us. Destitute
and burdened with debt, it looks to the
North for aid. Any man who will
build cotton mill in these destitute
districts will do more beneficent
deed than the founding of hospital
or the opening of a soup kitchen. And
it is charity which will pay-not the
priceless rewards which are reserved
for the next life, but the sordid divi-
dends which follow business specu-
lation to this"
On Tuesday morning last the first
sleeping car on the Texas and Pacific

Houston to Texarkana. Several other
sleepers are OH their way, and in a few
days sleeping cars will be run regularly
between Houston and TeXarkana, and
travellers can pass between those points
without change of cars, which will be
great accommodation. The energet-
ic and efficient officials of the Texas
and Pacific railroad will leave nothing
undone to make their road in all re.

MAN named Smith had a pet calf
which he was training up in the way
of an OK; the calf walked around very
peaccably under one end of the yoke
while Mr.. Smith held up the other end,
but in an unfortunate moment the
man conceived the idea of putting his
own neck to the yoke to let the calf
see how it would seem to work with a
partner. This frightened mister calf,
and elevating his tail and voice, he
struck dead rum for the village, and
Mr.. Smith went along, with his head
down and plug hat in his hand, strain

at the top of his voice, "Herc we ccmc,
