The pamphlet upon michigan and
It's Resources" recently published by
the Commissioner of immigration. Fred
erick Morley, gives two tables of statis-
ties showing the value of labor and cost
of living in the State in 1881. They
are based upon reports furnished by
Intelligent and reputable citizens" of
Adrian, Alpera, Battle Greek, Big Rap
ids, Cheboygan, Detroit, Flint, Grand
Rapids, jackson, Lansing, Manistee,
Muskegon, Port Austin, Saginaw and
East Saginaw, and Traverse City. The
figures given thus represent about every
important district In the Lower PENN
sula of Michigan. The first table shows
the average rate of wages paid during
1881 for the principal kinds of labor en-
ployed, and the second gives the aver
age retail prices in that year of the
staple articles Of household consump-
ton. These statistics, as compiled by
the Commissioner, bear intrinsic evil
dence of general accuracy, and the pro-
duct obtained by averaging them may
be fairly taken as the average in each
case for 1881 of the Lower Peninsula.
In response to circular issued in
April, 1873, the State Department at
Washington received from the Consular
officers of the United States in Great
Britain, France, Germany, Belgium,
Italy, Spain aud Denmark series of
elaborate reports on the condition at that
time of the laboring classes in those
countries. These documents were trans
mitted by the department to the Honse
of Representatives on May II, 1879,
and Secretary Evarts added to them
letter carefully summing up and analyz-
ing the results of this inquiry. The
whole was subsequently published, by
order of Congress, in volume of over
400 pages, bearing the title of estate
of Labor in Europe: 1878" It's pages
supply the means of comparing the rate
of wages and cost of living in Michigan
Uower Peninsula) IN 1881, and in the
principal countries N Europe in 1873.
In the following tables the statistics
gathered by the Michigan Commissioner
of Immigration and the national Depart
ment of Stare, so far as they relate to
the same trades or articles, are grouped
together, after having been reduced to
common basis

A NEWSPAPER man rushed rudely into
telephone room at Erie, Pa, and was
told to keep quiet and listen. He did
so and heard womens voices fervently
praying for the restoration of girl lying
at the point of death in village fifteen
miles away. A score or more of women,
with their ears to different telephones,
were listening to these prayers and say
ing amen on the proper occasion. She
was afflicted with tumor, and given up
by the doctors. 1t was resolved by
several of her young lady friends in her
own village and Erie to try the praying
cure, several successful instances of
which they had heard of. They prayed
that the miracle might be wrought at
midnight of the same day. At mid
night the miracle had not been accom-
plished, but it was announced that the
patient felt easier and trusted in God.

New YORK telegram: The birth of
Barnum's baby elephant has afforded az
opportunity for obtaining the milk of
the animal for analysis, and Prof. Dore-
mus has improved the opportunity. He
says: cit is evident that the milk ap-
proaches the composition of cream. 1t
was pleasant in flavor and odor, and SUI
perior in these respects to that of many
animals. The fat is light yellow, re-
sembling olive oil, and is very pleasant
in flavor and taste. From whatever
standpoint we view the tactical product
of these four-footed giants, we are fully
warranted in ascribing to it not only ex-
IRENE richness, but also great delicacy
of flavor" The mothers daily diet is
three pecks of oats, one bucket of bran
mash, five or six loaves of bread, half a
bushel of roots potatoes, etc. fifty to
seventy-five pounds of hay, and forty
gallons of water.
