TIE SUMNER SoLsTIcE. -One GREAT reason

THE SUMNER SoLsTIcE. One great reason
why hot weather is so debilltating lies in
the fact that the body is exhausted by the
labors Of the year. Indeed, it is natural
that this should be 80. In order, therefore,
to resist this tendency to exhaustion it only
becomes necessary to re-invigorate the
body which can readily BE- done by one or
two bottles Of Warmers Safe Tonic. This
remedy is being extensively used by physi-
clans for this purpose and IS for sale by
druggists in all parts of the world.

THE RAILWAY UP VEsUvIUs.-The
station is situated On level spot on the
west side of the mountain, about half an
hours walk from the Observatory. The
constructors have adopted the American
double iron rope system. There are two
lines of rails, each provided with a car
riage divided into two compartment, and
capable Of holding six persons. While
one carriage goes up the other comes
down, thus establishing a counter weight,
which considerably economies the steam
Of stationary traction engine. The in
cline is extremely steep, commencing at
so degrees, increasing to SO degrees, and
continuing at so degrees to the summit.
Every possible precaution has been taken
against accident, and the railway itself
is protected against possible flows of lava
by an enormous wall. The ascent will be
made in eight or ten minutes. To OBJ
tain the necessary supply of water large
covered cisterns have been constructed,
which in winter will be filled with the
snow that often falls on the mountain.
This snow will quickly be melted by the
heat of the volcano itself. Frequent
rainfalls will also be conducted into the
cisterns. A cafe restaurant, capable of
accommodating 100 persons, will be at
tached to the station. Above the en-
trance to the station is an ample terrace,
supported by the Cults of Naples, Baia
and Gaeta, with their islands dotted on
them, and to the north are seen the plains
Of Caserta, bordered by the distant Ap-
pennines.

KILLED BY QUACK.---VINCENNEs,
Ind, May 14.-William L. Wampler,
aged 80, a prominent farmer Of Palmyra
township, this county, has just died un-
der circumstances of the most painful r.
ture. The old gentleman had long been
suffering from cancer in one side of the
face. He had tried everything known
to science, but without relief. His
sons claim and publish card to the ef-
feet that in January q quack applied to
their afflicted father, representing his
ability to remove the revolving sore.
Mr.. Wampler was induced to try him, to
do anything for relief, and put himself in
the newcomers hands. Frequent plaster
ing and poulticing followed, but to no
purpose; the afflicted place enlarged and
one eye-ball was eatenaway. In a few days
the ravenous cancer fell OH an artery in the
rear~of the eye-ball, and, despite all efforts,
it was eaten in two. The old gentleman be-
gan to sink rapidly till his terrible suffer
ings were ended by death.

FEMALE BEAUTY HERE AND ABROAD
In fact, female beauty is a rarity in every
other country in the world except this
favored land. We leave out of question
the German, Russian and Scandinavian
nations, for their beauty is almost myth.
In Italy there is a stately beauty Of form
and richness of color among the peasants,
accompanied by stolid impassiveness;
the vaunted beauties of Spain are dumpy
little women, with swallow faces and no
intelligence. In Vienna alone, of all the
great cities in Europe, beauty is as COM
mon among women as it is in St. Louis
and Baltimore, and there the beauty
comes from the Hungarians, across the
river. In Paris there is type OF female
beauty, dainty, refined and exquisite, but
fragile and delicate as the hot-house exc
tic, which it resembles, rather than the
blooming Of the rosebud Of an American
cottage garden.-St. Louis Republican.

Japan will soon cease to be a field for
the energies of educated foreigners. The
employment of foreigners in the japanese
service is annually decreasing in number
for as the former progress in knowledge
they will not, as self helpful people
keep foreigners to do what they them
selves can accomplish. The Japanese
Government is having its leading subjects
taught in Europe, in order that they may
be competent to perform the work for
which Europeans are now paid; and one
by one foreign employees are being super
seded by natives in the various depart
ments and public works
