It is estimated that 14, 1000, 900 bushels of sweet potatoes will be raised in Georgia this season, and how to dispose of the crop is a problem. Two attempts at its solution are mentioned in the Atlanta Consultation. One is that freight rates can be made low enough to make western shipments profitable. The total crop weighs nearly half million tons and to carry such freight should be an ob- ject to any company which could handle 1t and take it to market where fair prices are sure to obtain. The other solution is to use an evaporator and dry the potato, by which operation only about fifteen per cent. of the weight is lost.

Boston bakers, it is said, are using cotton seed oil instead of lard, the former being much cheaper. Lard costs thirteen or fourteen cents, while the oil only costs eight and a half cents. Many who are not well disposed towards the pig or any of his products will consider this change for the better.

Chairman Cooper of the regular Republi- can committee in Pennsylvania says: 'I take it thatsthe whole truth is that the Independ- ents don't want new convention or any har- mony in the party, and that they simply make sure that it shall not be by hampering our offer to them with impossible conditions They don't know themselves what they want. Their letters show this. They are divided among themselves there three different ! sentiments prevailing among them, as shown by those letters. Their chairman says one thing, four of the candidates say another and l the remaining candidate says something diff ferent. They don't want harmony and they don't know what they do want" It is natu- ] ral for Chairman Cooper to look at the mat
 ter in this light, but he will probably discov-
 ar that the Independents do know what they | want.

California is likely to have the Sunday question as prominent issue in the ap- preaching campaign. The Democrats, at their recent State convention, took strong ground for the repeal of the law forbidding Sunday traffic, and it is expected that the Re publicans will declare in favor of the law. There has been great deal of controversy over it in the courts, and both sides of the question have their ardent supporters.

The Quincy, Massachusetts, Civil Service Reform Association at it's latest meeting re- solved: ''That every candidate for Represen- tative to Congress should be asked to pledge himself to favor law that will absolutely forbid all demands upon government officers for political contributions, whether made by members of Congress or heads of depart ments or others; and no candidate who is not so pledged should receive the support of those who believe in honesty in politics." In ! accordance with this resolution q committee
 was appointed to interview candidates as to their position on Civil Service Reform.

HECKE ER7S PERFECT BAKING POWDER,
A FAIR TEST.

To the Editor of the Journal & Courters
 Sir:-The contract for supplying the United States government with seventy-five thousand (76, 6,OOO) lbs. of Baking Powder during the en- suing year has been awarded to Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder, it having been tested by Dr. Ed- ward G. Love, analytical chemist for the government, and recOm- mended by him for it's excellence and because it contained a higher percentage of gas (which means it will make lighter bread and bis- cuiD than either the "Royal'' OF the other cream tartar baking powders which he examined. The samples analysed by Dr. Love were missiOners, and were without the manufacturers label or name, and designated with a number known only to the commissioners
 It will thus be seen that when Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder s submitted to an impartial test It's superiority is acknowledged. and the popular verdict so emphat- ically expressed in it's favor is fully sustained.

Chairman George Turner, of the Republi
 can State committee of Alabama, has ap- pealed to the Republicans of the State to sup port cordially the Independent State ticket, which was indorsed by the Republican State convention. He says the nominees are hon. est and courageous men, in whose hands can safely be left the accomplishment of the re
 forms embodied in their platform. He calls for full vote, and says: "It is known that every vote stolen from us in the South gives our party two additional votes in the North. We may therefore rely upon the moral infu- ence of both parties in the North to give us fair count. Indeed, it is said that in Au- gust, 1880, the chairman of the Democratic National Committee telegraphed the chair man of the Democratic State Committee of Alabama For Gods sake, stop piling up the majority! Let us go on, then, and poll our full vote, using all possible vigilance everywhere to prevent fraud, and ruthlessly exposing it to the country where prevention has been impossible. Our cause is just and must triumph in the end. If Republicans but do their duty that end is not far off"

who had suffered injuries by reason of an ob stacle negligently left in the street. The city advanced the plea that the accident occurred on Sunday, whom the plaintiff was travelling in violation of the law. In an opinion just rendered the Court of Appeals holds that this affords no excuse and constitutes no legal de- fence for the negligence of the city authori- ties. *"The statute forbidding unlawful travel on Sunday" says the Court, "prescribes 8 penalty for it's violation, but it goes no fur ther, and there is no principle upon which it can be held that the right to maintain an &C., ton in respect to special damage resulting from the omission of the defendant to per- form public duty is taken away because the person injured was at the time disobeying a positive Iaw'

DR. JOHN F. HANCOCK, late President of the National Phar- maceutical Association of the United States, says:
 Browns Iron Bitters has a heavy sale, is conceded to be fine tonic: the character of the manu- lecturers is a voucher for it's purity and medicinal excellence"
 DR. JOSEPH ROBERTS, President Baltimore Pharmaceutical College, says:
 ''I indorse it as fine medicine, reliable as strengthening tonic, free from alcoholic poisons.7' DR. J. PARIS MOORE, PHI. D., Professor of Pharmacy, Balti- more Pharmaceutical College, says: Browns Iron Bitters is a safe and reliable medicine, positively free from alcoholic poisons, and can be recommended as tonic for use among those who oppose alcohol.' DR. EDWARD .EARICKsON, Secretary Baltimore College of Phar- macy, says
 "I indorse it as an excellent medicine, good digestive agent, and non-intoxicant in the fullest sense.'
 Dr. RICHARD SAP1NGToN. one of Baltimore's oldest and most reliable physicians, says:
 "All who have used it praise it's standard virtues, and the we'll known character of the house which makes it is a sufficient guarantee of it's being all that is claimed, for they are men who could not be in- duced to offer anything else but reliable medicine for public use."

A City OF Perfumes.

A writer in All ths Year Bound saws:
The Tunistan Arabs have passion for
flowers, and as soon as their spring
commences, even the poor and the rag
gedest may be seen with o delicately-
scented blossom stuck above his ear, the
stock resting amid the folds of his
turban and the flower projecting for
ward over his dark cheek. I have been
told by those who have thirty years
knowledge Of these people, that they will

And there is something in the sight of q
gaunt toil-worn Arab, whose sole gar
ments may consist of a piece Of coars.
sacking and ragged old turban, with a
bunch of delicate spring blossoms
dropping their cool freshness against
his swarthy cheek, which stirs strange
mingling OF sympathy and pity and ad-
miration. The perfumes distilled at
Tunis have been famous from time i'm
memorial, and really think the Tunis-
ians are right when they declare tha-
their roses are sweeter than all Others.
There is one very large, rather pale
rose in particular, from which the
famous altar is extracted, which exhales
an odor so powerful and yet 80 delicate
that it scarcely seems figure of speech
to speak OF odors of Paradise" and
one can understand that the Moham-
medan's heaven would hardly be COM
plete without it. But at Tunis it it
not only the rose which is made to yield
up its sweet breath. to be after wards
imprisoned in cunning little caskets and
sparkling crystal TASKS enriched with
gliding, suggestive to the wandering
fancy Of the Arabian Nights haunted
traveller fand who is there who is not
continually haunted by that wonderful
book from the moment he finds himself
among oriental scenes p the imprisoned
spirit of some fairy in eternal subjec-
tion to the powerful genii man. The
odors of the violet, the jesmine, the
orange-fower, and many others are ex.
tracfed with equal skill, and in. the
bazaars mingle their scents with the
perfume Of sandal-wood and other
sweet.smelling woods whose names / do
not know, and with that of the curious
and most odoriferous dark substance
which the natives cali amber. If you go
by perfumes the vendor will perhaps
offer you little ivory box (Arabian

around your neck, apparently thinking
1t OF small consequence in what way
you perfume your person SO that the
desired door is conveyed to the senses.
In Arab houses incense sandal-wood is
frequently burned ON charcoal braziers.
The Arabian women 6f the higher class
are extravagantly fond Of highly
scented earrings, bracelets, etc., and
lady told me on being introduced into
the apartment of a newly-married wife,

as the collar of the order of the golden

well-to.do households it was always to
be found in the chamber of the newest
wife.

tioose Bones as Weather Prophets.

Kentuckians put no trust in Vennor.
The Louisville Post tells of weather
prophet much more popular that way:
The goose b one has long been an
honored weather prophet. In some OF
the back counties of Kentucky the
farmers make oil their arrangements in
accordance with the predictions of the
goose bone. In some localities the
goose bone is laid aside, labeled with
the year, and it is said that one old
farmer in Breathitt county has the
bones extending back for more than
forty years. To read correctly the win
ter of any year take the breast bone Of
q goose Matched during the preceding

will be found to be colered and spotted.

The Wonders Of Common Paner.

To the Japanese we are indebted for
the discovery that paper can be made
into hundreds of articles for human
use. At the Atlanta exposition were to
be seen a most extraordinary variety Of
articles which had been made from
common paper pulp. These included
car wheels, kitchen furniture, wash
basins, tubs, trucks, and even houses.
A car wheel made of paper will run
100000 miles without breaking and
is stronger than steel or iron, and then
it is very much cheaper. Paper is of
surprising strength. A twisted note Of
the Bank Of England will not tear even
though three hundred and twenty mine
pounds weight is suspended from the
end Of it. Paper can be compressed SO
hard that it will tear chisel into pieces
if the latter is held against it. One OF
the great values OF paper is that it can
be made to take the place of wood.
Furniture made of it looks like black
walnut, ana is really stronger as we'll
as cheaper indeed there is now less
danger from the wasting OF our forest
trees than there was before the various
uses OF paper were discovered. Stoves
are made Of paper and are so incom-
bustible that it is impossible to burn
them. 1t is possible even to make o
steam engine of paper in short it has
been found that the linen fiber from
which the best paper is made will in
the future be as valuable to mankind
as wood or iron.
