There are many indications that the
general business of the country is nnder-
going a change for the better. The de-
mand for dry goods and other goods from
the South and Southwest is perceptiby
stronger and more confident. Retail deal
ers, the distributors nearest the consum-
ers. seem to have made up their minds at
last there is more risk in waiting than in
buying. 1t has been known for long
while that retail stocks were running very
low, and that dealers we're Giving from
hand to mouth" and it has been held as
certain that the time must come when
they would feel sufficiently hopeful to re-
new their former mode of purchasing
Apparently that time has now come. The
fact that the first and most definite signs
of improvement are noticed from the
South, and particularly from the South
west, is undoubtedly due to the excellent
prospect of the cotton crop. But it is also
due to the fact that the South. which has
been more free than any other sections
from the fever of Speculation. has been
quietly making money in moderate de
gree for at least year, and is now ready
to spend it.

"My wife has been seriously affected with a
cough for twenty five years, and this spring
more severely than ever before. She had used
many remedies without relief, and being urg-

with most gratifying results. The first bot
tie relieved her very much, and the second

had so good health for years."

know that this bridge will soon be re-

the construction of Il tower bridge, half g

high, in the river. at the end of two an.
chOrage towers on the river bends The
central roadway span of 200 feet width
will be in two parts, each of which will,
on level being touched, fold upward
against its tower, leaving a clear space
200 feet wide and 135 feet high for the
passage of vessels.
Hydraulic machinery operating these
draws will be under the control of one
man, and so powerful that each of these
great iron draws, 100 feet wide and 100
feet long. will be raised and lowered with
out jarring or Jerking. A foot bridge
over the central cables, and approached
by elevators in river towers, will be al

condition of the draw bridge below. The
bridge will be 200 feet long, and even

Her dreamy penitential face

Her solemn, lustrous, spiritual eyes
Reflect the shades of earthly skies.
In sober folds her golden hair
Has prisoned sunbeams III lair;
With aspirations in her dreams
Young Love Is singing gentle themes.
Within the 'kerchief DER her breast
A lily lies in swooning rest;
A rosebud lang uished there at morn
In fevere1 bushes sad and lorn
No clamoring signs disturb her Peacei
Inaudible in calm they cease;
Restrained within proper sphere
They wait in silence and in fear.
Yet while the sun is following day
Lest one lone wanderer go astray,
And, lost within reckless thought,
Betray the secret love has brought!
Sweet Quaker maiden, DER thy face
Thy soul has yelled a stainless grace,
Yet through thy sighs thy heart doth prov

moment there passes a, lady in phtton

In the economy of modern life, moth
ing is permitted to go to waste. Old
sponges are secured by city scavengers
and bleachod until they have nice
color, and are then resold.
But these bleached sponges are not
any good The acid takes all the life
out of them, and when that is done the
sponge is no good. An old sponge that
has been through ocess of bleaching
with muriatic acid or sulphur has lost
the essential nature of a sponge.

How Honeycomb is Filled.

DIR. c. Spencer has been prying into
the business secrets of the bee, an thus
tells of what he has learned: ia my
observatory hive one cell was built
against the glass, and that afford ID an
excellent opportunity of seeing how bees
deposit honey in the cell. FRS. bee
deposited thin coating of honey upon
the base of the cell, making sort of
varnish. as it were, to the base of the
cell. The next bee that came with
honey raised up the lower edge of this
film of honey and forced its honey be-
meath; the next bee did the same, and
th film acted as kind of diaphragm,
keeping honey in the cell. When the
cell is full enough to be sealed, the bees
commence contracting the opening
with wax until there is only small
hole left in the centre, when they APP
pear to take one little flake of wax and
pat it down over the opening. At any
time during the process of filing the cell
the honey could be withdrawn with a
hypodermic syringe, and the 'dia-
phragm' left hanging in the cell. - Bos-
ton transcript.
