The record OF fires in 1872 as published in the
Insurance Chronicle, shows such an increase in
losses that 1t may compel the underwriters to
increase premiums in order to protect them
selves. This increase in the aggregate losses
over the preceding year causes very general
surprise, as it was supposed that the numerous
improvements in machinery and appliances for
preventing and exttnguiShtng fires would pro-
duce decrease in the record OF destruction.
The losses in 1879 were ST. ,IO3, 700, against
$S4315.000 in 1875 an increase OF ST., 100, or
20 per cent The loss to the insurance compa-
mics was S4,464, 200, against s36575, 900, an In
crease OFFS, SIS, 500, or over 81 per cent or the
whole number OF fires, more than one-third

Wan bark (cinch0nd rub1'a) called by druggists
''quin bark" because it is taken from the small
twigs about the size of a quill One pound of
this bark well pounded Is soaked in pint OF
diluted alcohol. and this is reduced down to half
a pint. For the first two or three days a tea
spoonful of this preparation is given to the
patient every three hours and after that the
dose is reduced to quarter-teaspoonful then
to fifteen, ten and even five drops. Dr. Danger
has cured, so 1t is claimed 800 cases of intem-
perance, and has never failed in single in
stance. The cure is usually effected in from
seven to fifteen days, though thirty days are
required In extreme cases This remedy is said
TO remove the appetite for intoxicating drinks,
and 1t is thus that the permanent cure is
effected. This is certainly very simple and
cheap remedy, and one that can be tried with
out any possible harm being done to the patient,
even If no good is accomplished.

effort to suppress the trade in oleomargarine
Profit is made out of this counterfeit butter by
imposing 1t upon people as the genuine article.
TO prevent this the various state legislatures
are urged to enact laws requiring that all SEM
dance OF butter shall be labelled in distinct
letters, describing its character. Then the pur-
chaser cannot be imposed upon, and If he wants
