INDIANAPOLIS, Feb %.
There is ample evidence On all sides that as
coon as the weather becomes settled, and the ice
and snow embargo north of us is fully raised,
there is to be considerable increase in business.
and our merchants and manufacturers have
good reason TO expect an improvement in early
March. The mild weather of the past few days
has placed the railroads in better condition for
business, and the arrivals of grain are increas-
ing in consequence; however, it is web TO bear
in mind that large proportion of the grain now
coming forward was sold to arrive aid viii be

weakened and not without reason, as in addition

They do queer things in Swift
 zerland, considering that the Swiss
 eulogize their country as "the land
 of liberty" The children of poor people are regularly hired out by
 auction in most of the cantons. There was a most painful scene recently in the market place of Biel, town near Berne, where. in spite of the heartrending en- treaties of a widowed mother. her four young children, ranging from two to ten, were placed" out to the highest bidder by the public crier; the family being thus broken up and separated for fear lest the woman should be compelled to seek for assistance from the town. This IS really very nearly as bad as the old slave sales in America: and I should doubt whether there
 is any other country in Europe where such an infamous system ex sts at the present time. The Swiss, in reality, are a sordid, huck- 'tering race.-Ex.

 French Ministry of Public Works.
 more than 22,000 miles; next to Germany comes the United King dom of Great Britain and Ireland. which possesses about 5000 miles. but adds to its lines much more slowly than any of its rival nations on the Continent; France is third on the list in regard to the total extent of road, having some 1S,OOO miles; Russia is next, with about l6,O0O miles, while Austro-Hun- gary has 13,O00; Italy, country of skilled engineers, has as many as 6,OOO miles coursing its re- territory; Spain has kept pace almost exactly with the rival peninsula; while Greece can boast of a railroad system of only about fourteen miles, considerable DOT tion of which is very recent.

A LudicrOus Mistake.

An anecdote illustrating the care
 with which noblemen are made, and
 the poor material which Kings oft
 en use in making them, is related
 ln a Swedish contemporary. When
 King Gustavus III. was in Paris
 he was visited by a dputation of
 the Sorbonne. That learned body
 congratulated the King on the
 happy fortune that had given him
 so great man as Scheele, the dis coverer of magnesium, as his sub ject and fellow-countryman. The King, who took small interest in the progress of science, felt some what ashamed that he should be so ignorant as never even to have heard of the renowned chemist. He dspatched a courier at once to Sweden with the laconic order, "Scheele is to be immediately raised to the dignity and title of Count" 'His Majesty must be obeyed," said the Prime Minister. as he read the order; "but who in the world is Scheele?" A secre- tary was told to make inquiries | He came back to the Premier with | very full information. "Scheele | IS a good sort of a fellow" said he, "a Lieutenant in the Artillery; a capital shot, and frst-rate hand at billiards" The next day the Lieutenant became a Count, and the illustrious scholar and scientist remained a simple burgher. The error was not discovered until the King returned home. His Mai esty was furious. 'FYou must all pc fools," he exclaimed, "not to znow who Scheele is." He him. self had only known him for three )r four weeks!

The notorioA.ex- Gov. Moses,
 who has just sS ntsnced to
 three years more of priso1 service
 in Massachusetts, is said to be in
 a desperate mood. T am morally
 and physically a wreck" he sad to
 his keeper. ''It is not from dlssi-
 patton; l have never been a drunk
 ard, nor have I ever had other bad habits. l have simply been unfor- tunate, that's all. My business life was failure; I was deeply in debt, and in desperation resorted to illegal means to raise the funds l so badly needed. But I'll never live my sentence out. Ishall seek some means to meet death, and I shall seek for the earliest oppor- tunity." The Governor was taken to Charlestown Prison. He was closely watched on the way that he might find no means of harming himself. In the prison. for fear of suicide, he was taken to padded cell and left in soli- tude. All day long he appeared to be in state bordering on in- sanity. When he thought no one was looking he would rush madly up and down the narrow cell, and then throw himself down on the floor, as if in an agony of despalr. Everything with which he might | harm himself had been taken from 1im, and the soft walls of the 'oom gave him no chance to infict injury.

Cooking Water.

A correspondent of the Bostorf
 Transcript writes story concern
 ing the way the late Charles Del
 monlco used to talk about the new
 hot water cure. He said the Del
 monicos were the first to rec-
 ommend 1t to guests who com
 plained of having TO appetite. Take a cup of hot water and lemon and you will feel better J was the formula adopted. The lemon juice takes away the insip- ldlty of the hot water. For this anti-bilious remedy the caterers charged the price of a drink of their best liquors-25 cents or it was certainly wiser way to spend small change than in alcohol. 'Few persons know how to cook water," Charles used to affirm. "The secret is, putting good, fresh water into neat kettle quite warm, and setting the water to boiling quickly, and then taking 1t right off to use in tea, coffee, or other drinks, before t IS spoiled. To let it steam, and simmer, and evaporate until the good water is all in the atmos- ohere, and the lime, and iron, and tregs only left in the kettle-bahf hat IS what makes a great many people sick, and,is worse than n8 water at a,I,'

The Practice Ot Closing Letters
 with Scaling Wax Revived.

l
 With Scaling Wax Revived. "The revived practice of closing , letters with sealing wax, stamped
 with a quaint design, started 1T
 New York, and has spread from
 the Atlantic to the Pacific" says z
 New York stetioner. "Fanciful
 designs are invented by manufac-
 turing jewellers to suit whimsical
 tastes. The fashion for diamonds
 IS waniug, and the manufacturers
 have seized the opportunity to re-
 turn to seal rings. Intaglios are
 worn by both women and men. In
 the stone is cut the family crest,
 with a motto, if one is to be had or can be invented. Frequently a young lady has her initials in her handwriting cut in the surface. not Tn monogram, but as written. Men wear watch charms of gold ln various shapes, which on touch ing a spring disclose a stone seal ready for stamping the softened wax.
 "Dark seals are used of less ex- penslve materials, but of fantastic shapes. Paper knives of silver. brass, copper, or nickel, finished with a seal at the end of the handle, are in demand. Fantastic paper-weights of metal are also fitted with seals. Here is one in the shape of pig, with seal on the end of his nose. Another is chicken with the seal on it's foot. When a crest or a monogram is not desired for seal a flower, usually daisy, forget-me-not, or a rose. l is used.
 "The art of sealing letter prop erly has to be learned. The letter should be laid face downward on the wr1ting-desk and a candle or lamp at the right hand. The wax should be held above the flame. but. not near enough to burn it. Burned wax makes the seal brittle and streaks it with black lines. It should soften gradually above the flame until it is about to drip, then It should be placed squareIy on the spot to be sealed and rubbed with ] circular movement. When the wax has become cool the stick can 'e taken away. To stamp 1t, warm he Wax slightly by holding it lear, not over, the flame until it ; oftens, and then apply the seal with firm touch. The latest no- l ion is to use perfumed WAX" .

A carriage road is to be made

A carriage road is to be made
 from Jerusalem to the ruins made
 at Jericho by the blast of Joshua's rams horns. A small modern vil- lage now stands near the ruins. which are sunk 1,20O feet below the sea-level in a well-watered but dreadfully hot valley. A shrine near the road is monastery at the very cave in which Elijah is said to have been fed by the ra- vens. The monastery is literally hung on the face of the precipice; and consists of series of cells and a hall supported on vaults through which lies the entrance. A few Greek monks live like birds perched on the edge of nest in thls singular abode, to which a chapel pinnacled on rock is at 5ached.

Len.ons and Their Uses.

A healthgiving fruit the lemon IS greatly undervalued. Its ire.
 quent use; especially in the warm
 season, IS preventive of the ma
 larla, that comparatively new and
 now fashionable disease. The
 juice of two lemons taken in half
 a glass of water before each meal
 IS powerful remedy for rheuma-
 tlsm, and 1t is also considered $
 specific for intermittent fever.
 The juice of one lemon taken
 three times dayin cup of clear;
 strong coffee, will often cure chills
 and fever, when the disease is
 stubborn and unyielding to all
 other remedies. Lemon juice is
 cooling and purifying to the blood
 and valuable regulator for many
 of the ailments peculiar to spring.
 For its good medicinal, effects it
 should be taken without sugar, but
 always somewhat diluted; if clear
 It's powerful acid has an injurious effect upon the coatings of the stomach and teeth: We know of physician who used lemon juice Tn case of smallpox, the only liquid given, and no other, remedy: In o6 hours the disease was under complete control, and in one week was entirely cured.
 Hot lemonade, with faxsegd simmered in it for half an hour. then strained and sweetsncd. is excellent for cold, but; as it pro- duces prespiration, 1t should be taken only upon retiring. The white of an egg beaten to a stiff froth and whipped up with the Julce of a lemon, relieves hoarse- ness aud soreness of the chest at once, taken by the teaspoonful half hourly.
 The pulp of lemon, bound on for three successive nights, is said to cure corns, and a few pearl shirt buttons dissolved in the iuics of one lemon forms thick, creamy ointment that will almost surely cure them. So we find the medic nal properties of the lemon are many and varied. Their value in culinary art is also great. Tho md, thinly pared off, is an agree ible iavorlng for custards, creams md blanc mango. It should be cooked in the milk and removed before the other ingredients are ldded. The yellow rind only is 1t for use-the white part is al. ways bitter. The juice of a lemon dded to an apple pie, when the pples are not tart, or when they ave become insipid m spring, is a reat improvement. The grated ind, also, imparts a pleasant fla or, other favorings being omit ed. Used in cookery we find thls cid fruit makes many delicious esserts and relishes, pies, pud- lnSs, jellies. pickles, candies, etc. American Cultivator.

The candle-power of light may be approximately calculated by comparing the shadow cast by a rod in the light of a standard can dle with the shadow cast by the light to be tested. By moving the latter toward or away from the rod a point will be reached at which the shadow cast by both lights will be of the same intensity. The intensities of the two lights are directly proportional of the squares of their distances from the shadows, i. e., suppose the light to be tested is three times the dis tance of the candles, its illumi hating power is nine times as great.

A somewhat remarkable result from flash of lightning occurred near Deer Lodge, Montana, where l,4OO sheep were grazing, with a herder in charge. The flash and report appeared almost simulta neous, and were terrific. The herder and horse were both knocked to the ground, and when the herder recovered and looked around 1t seemed to hlm the entire flock was down. Seven sheep were killed throughout the band by the flash, and two of them were 200 yards apart.-New Northwest.

A clean tooth will not decay. It IS the food left between the teeth which causes the trouble. The part of the tooth which you can reach with the toothbrush does not decay If the brush IS used. The decay takes place be- tween the teeth, especially the double teeth, where the tooth brush cannot reach.

CONCERNING Bees.


Their Special knowledge of District or
Land Marks.
Mr.. G. j. Romanes describes an in
teresting series of observations on a
subject thus defined in the Introductory
paragraph: lin connection with Sir
John Lubbock's paper at the British As
ISOLATION, in which this subject is treated,
it is perhaps worth while to describe
some experiments which J made last
year. The question to BET answered is
whether bees find their way Home merely
by their knowledge of landmarks or by
means of some mysterious faculty
usually termed sense of direction.
The ordinary impression appears to
have been that they do so in
virtue of some such sense, and
are therefore independent of any
special knowledge of the district in
which they may be suddenly liberated;
and, as Sir John Lubbock observes,
this impression was corroborated by the
experiments of M. Fabre The conclu-
sions drawn from these experiments,
however, appeared to me, as they ap-
peared to Sir John, unwarranted by
the facts, and therefore, like him, I
repeat them with certain variations. IN
the result satisfied myself that the
bees depend entirety upon their spe-
cial knowledge district or land
marks, and It is because my expert
ments thus fully corroborate those
which were made by Sir John that it
now occurs to me to publish them. -
