PORTLAND, Feb. %.
The merchandise markets were dull to-day with
little or no change in prices Poultry has been very
scarce and good Western Turkeys retail at csc q H.
Chickens Zoe and Fowl 22c. The market for Po-
tatoes continues dull with only Light local trade.
The Boston market is glutted with Potatoes of all
kinds and it takes an extra lot CT Rose to bring
40c, while other varieties have to be forced off
at easy prices Cape Cod Cranberries are about out
Of the market. Mackerel are in light stock with
fair inquiry for Is, Is and 3s but for As the quality
is very poor and no demand. There is some i'm
provement in the demand for Cooperage at steady
prices.

MURD0cKSLIQuID FOOD.

We wish to mention few facts in relation to this
valuable preparation. 1t is one of the articles in
oG- large stock that we have not been solicited to
purchase, as the manufacturers solicit no business
beyond what the physicians create, and the demand
is increasing all the time Three years ago we
selling few cases; now, in the same length of
time, we are selling as many hundred cases., 1t is
the only Raw food Extract known, and it is render
ed as high as iG can be retained in solution, making
teaspoonful equal to about one half pound of COM
mon food, and can be retained by the stomach when
30 weak as to refuse water 1t is excellent in fevers
as the fruits relieve the meats of their heating prop
critics, and combined, supply sufficient nourishment
to sustain the system, which prevents relapse of
the patient 1t is valuable for all chronic diseases
known and that will cleanse the system of disease
advice of the Murdoch Liquid Food Company is not
to change the food but add five to twenty drops of
the Liquid Food, and the change in few days will
warrant the abandonment of ali other food 1see la
bel en- each bottle. The company, to confirm its
value. have established two free hospitals one for
infants under four months old of fifty beds, and
they keep them one year free of expense except
clothing. Their object is to reduce the mortality
from cholera infantum, teething and weaving, as
there is not known for three years of child
having cholera infantum when fed with Liquid
Food, or dying from it when treated by physician.
The woman's hospital contains thirty beds, free
from one to six months for any case that will not
yield to treatment of their physician by his giving
letter relative to the case. The company do not
wish the same for publication but for reference for
he physician, enabling them to treat other patients
the same treatment,

WISE WORDS.

Compliments cost nothing, yet man,
nav dear for them.
Charity and personal force are the onlv
investments worth anything.
If Won wish to remove avarice Won
must remove its mother luxury.
Treat servants as you would like to b
treated yourself, were you in their place
Learned men are never anxious to
seem learned to others, and to be called
wise.
The wrath which on conviction sub.
sides into mildness is the wrath of
generous mind.
Appearances are often deceitful; hence
we should not decide with haste on the
unfavorable side.
Beauty soon decays, but virtue and
talent remain with US and improve with
the progress of time.
Cheerfulness is not proof that the
mind is at ease, for often in the midst Of
laughter the heart is sad.
Pluto being told that he had an enemy
who spoke i'll of him, said: 81 will live
in such manner that none will believe
him.
"He is not the discoverer who first
utters truth, but who says it again and
again until he compels mankind to hear
him!"
Begin your course in life with the least
show and expense possible, You may at
pleasure increase both, but cannot easily
diminish them.
Never be ashamed to own you have
been in the wrong; it is but saying in
other words that you are wiser to-day
than you were yesterday.
Satire is sort of glass, wherein be-.
holders generally discover everybodys
face but their own; which is the chief
reason for that kind of reception it meets
in the world, and that so very few are
offended with it.
1t cannot be too deeply impressed on
the mind that application is the price to
be paid formental acquisitions, and that
it is as absurd to expect them without it
as to hope for harvest where we had
not sown the seed.

Running a Hole Ont of Town.

A friend who hes been travelling in
Mexico brings back a good story illus
trative of the peculiar lack of inventive
ness of the people of our sister republic
A church was lately built at Logos, on
the main line of the Mexican Central
railroad, and when finished the fathers
were annoyed to find that big hole,
from which the clay for the adobes used
in constructing the edifice had been ex.
cavated, remained directly in front OF
the main entrance. Orders were given
to have the unsightIy hole filled up
This was done by shoveling into it earth
and clay from the nearest bank. But
this, of course, left another hole, and 50
the painstaking Mexicans went to work
and filled that up in like manner. leaving
another gap in the ground which was
then filled, and the operation was re,
peated until the hole was run out Of
town, so to speak, and the good father:
congratulated themselves on being rid
Of an unsightly nuisance. People who
wonder why the Mexicans are not more
enterprising than they are will find IN
this little tale one explanation of the
difficulty which stands in the way OF q
rapid development Of the country. -1er

Car Wheels of Railroads.

Everything is built to last and do ser
vice, says London letter. Only one
thing have | noticed as yet in England
or on the continent, that seems less sub
stantial and durable than the correspond
ing article in the United States. That
is the car wheels of railroads. Here
have seen very few that are solid. They
are made with rims about two inches
thick on the thinner side, surrounded by
a flange, and connected with the central
part of the wheel with spokes that are
themselves not solid iron, but hollow
elipses. Even the driving-wheels of the
engines are made in this way. And as
the railroad carriages and freight cars
run apparently on higher bearings, the
whole train seems to rest on a more airy
and frail basis, and one shrinks at first
from entrusting himself to so weak q
structure, lest the irregularities of the
road should cause the cars to jump the
track But soon he finds that there is no
lack of speed, and yet there is great regu-
larity and ease Of movement, and the
thought occurs to him that it may be
quite as safe, as well as great economy in
the cost and wear Of rolling stock, to
have perfect track, with light wheels
so that there will be no tendency to
Jump the track, as to have poorer track
and heavy wheels to hold the train down.
when otherwise it would be thrown OIL

Oh solemn portal yelled in mist and cloud,
Where all who have lived throng in, an end
less line,
Forbid 70 tell by backward look or sign
What destiny awaits the advancing crowd
Bourne crossed but once with no return al
lowed;
Dumb spectral gate, terrestrial yet divine,
Beyond whose arch all powers and fates com
j. bine,
Pledged TO divulge no secrets of the shroud
Close, close behind we step, and strive to
catch
Some whisper in the dark, some giimmering
light:
Through circling whirls Of thought intent to
snatch
A drifting hope-a faith that grows to sight;
And yet assured, whatever may befail,
That must be somewhow best that comes to

Anew phenomenon has lately appeared
in Paris in the shape of man with
head resembling that of calf. Ihe
similarity is said to be wonderful. For
his own sake, it is to be hoped that tins
eccentric-looking person will prove as
great financial success as his three re-
cent celebrated predecessors -the 8lan,
frog, the man with a goose's head, and
the Man-dog, who have all retired into
private life, having made a nice little
fortune, The Man-frog was first ez-
hibited in 1866, at a French country fete,,
He had stout, ill-shapen body, coveTea
with skin like leather bottle, and .
face exactly like frogs, large eyes, az
enormous mouth, and the skin cold ana
clammy. He attracted good deal q
attention from the academy of medicine,
