Uranine.

This is the most recently discovered,
and perhaps the most remarkable. of all
the coal tar or aniline group of cOloring
substances, now so extensively used for
the adornment of the finest fabrics. Ur-
anime is said, by chemists, to be the
most highly fiuorescent body known to
science. Its coloring power is astonish-
ing; single grain will impart a amarked
color to nearly five hundred gallons
of water.
A most interesting experiment,
which anybody may try, consists in
sprinkling q few atoms of Uranine up
on the surface of water in a glass tum-
bier. Each atom Immediately. sends
down through the water what appears
to be bright green rootlet; and the
tumbler soon looks as if it were crowd
ed full Of beautiful plants. The rootlets
now begin to enlarge, spread aud COM
bine, until we have a mass of soft
green-colored liquid. Viewed by tram
smitted light, the color changes to q
bright golden or amber hue; while a
combination ofgreen and golden will be
realized, according to the position in
which the glass is held. For day or
evening experiment nothing can be
prettier than these trials of Uranine,
which are especially entertaining for
young folks. We are indebted for
samples of color to editors of the Scien-
tific American, who are sending out
specimens, free of charge, to all their
readers. The subscription to the pap
er is $3.50 for year, or SLIGO half year
and better investment for the money
could hardly be named.

ROCHESTER,.

At q recent meeting of the School
Board an order was passed changing the
series of text books. We admit that a
uniformity is to be desired but cannot see
the wisdom of the present choice. The
''Nationap series if we except perhaps,
the speller, is superior in every way TO
the McGuffey, and although the honora-
BILE gentlemen of the Board may say that
"What was good enough for me is good
enough for my children,"y yet We would
suggest that little common sense would
not come amiss even in choosing between
modern improved and an obsolete class
of textbooks. That the project from
the beginning is speculation no one ac-
quainted with the facts will deny. No
one in this county had thought of RENE
dying the multiplicity of textbooks un-
til the publisher of the McGuffey series
proposed to remedy it for us-and make
money out of the operation. And SO our
School Board in conjunction with the like
bodies throughout the county has assist
ed in the swindle of foisticg upon the
people an antiquated and imperfect sys-
tenn of text books in the svathetical pur-
suit of uniformity. But the end is not
yet. The trapping of our Boards by these
land sharks who call themselves publish
ers, has been complete. These publish
ers take our discarded "Nationals," and
we pay them premium and get in re-
turn the McGuffey's. This makes the
latter seem quite cheap. But by and by
we want some more and not having any
more Nationals" to trade we have to
do with the cash "supply" instead of the
Exchange" rates. These are nothing
less than exorbitant. But there is no re-
lief. The Board has SO ordained and we
must pay it. Here is where the swindle
lies. Was ever game more adroitly
played, or an honest, but tunsophisticated
body more completely befuddled9
Another proposed innovation is the
County SUPPLEMENTARY. Nothing but
disastrous consequences can follow If
this should become law. The idea of
enc man experimenting the 1875 or more
district schools of this county is a bur-
lesque. His opportunities for judging of
teachers ability would not be a tithe of
that which the directors under the pres
ent system have. Then evils great and
many would be certain to follow such ex-
treme Capitalization of authority. Our
teachers examinations are frauds from
this cause already, yet we would 60 still
further and invest one man with the au-
thority now jointly held by over five
hundred officers. Let US look before We
leap. Il. A. NJ.

Two communications with refer

One evening last week Edith Parker
q daughter of s. s. Parker was taking a
race about the rooms of her home, for a
constitutional and while going at 2 40
gait her foot caught against the carpet
and she fell hand and face against and
through the glass of a sash door leading
to the porch, breaking out place 10x2s
and scattering fragments OF glass ten
feet away, but inflicting ouly slight
wounds in her hands and face. 1t might
be considered a miracle that she was
not seriously cut with the broken glsss.

The Holidays passed off quietly with
us. We think Kriss Kringle must have

Well, Huntington, if your whistle

Cheese.

There has been no trade since the
cold weather set in as it has not been
safe to ship. Dealers are holding their
November cheese at cents; Sept and
Oct. at711s. There Is little better tone
to the New York market, encouraging
the hope that prices will be at least,
sustained, and that the market will be
more active as soon as the weather will
Justify shipments.
The shipments of cheese for the
week ending Jan. l4th, are as follows:
No. of boxes, 1881. No lbs, 55, ,765.

No. tubs, 72. No. lbs. 3,725.

My DEAR DOCTOR A few weeks
since had conversation with my jan
itress as to q paralytic brother-in-lsw.
He was stricken paralytically about two
years ago; the right side entirely par
alyzed, including the right arm and the
right leg. He had not earned a penny
during the time; at my request he pur-
chased and used bottle of your Iodide
of Ammonia; before the bottle was one
half used, he could raise his arm and
control his leg. He continued the ap-
plication until he had used second
bottle, and is earning two dollars day
ard keeps up his work well. Use this
certificate as you please.

From all parts of the country reports come
