COCAINE NOT A NEW DISCOVERY.

Cocaine, the new local anesthetic
that has suddenly achieved such an
excellent reputation, has been known
as such for great many years, but
for a long time was found to be too
expensive for general use. The
great progress now is the cheapen-
ing of the product. Its properties
are due to substance nearly iden-
tilted with theme, the active princi-
pie in tea, and it is, indeed, obtain
ed from one of the tea plants, the
mate, of Paraguay. This is known
botanically as erythroXylon coca,
cocaine, of course, being derived
from the specific name. This plant
has long been known to the Para
guayans, who chew the leaves, rs
deadening the pangs of hunger.

THE OLDEST ALMANAC IN the WORLD.

An almanac 5000 years old, found
in Egypt, is in the British Museum.
1t is supposed to be the oldest in
the world. 1t was found on the
body of an Egyptian, who had,
doubtless, regarded it with as much
reverence as he did the Egyptian
Bible-''The Book of the Dead"-
and, indeed, it is strongly religious
in character. The days are written
in red ink, and under each is figure,

followed by three characters, signi-
flying the probable state of the
weather for that day. Like the
other Egyptian manuscripts it is
written on papyrus. 1t is written
in columns. 1t is not in its integri-
ty, but was evidently torn before
its owner died. 1t clearly estab-
fishes the date of the reign of
Rameses the Great, but contains
nothing else of value.

The American Government has
after many days recognized the
claims of Miss Anna Ellen Carroll,
for having suggested the campaign
of 1868 up the Tennessee River. 1t
is admitted that the movement in
question saved the Union in the last
extremity. Although the same idea
occurred to the military authority
and was decided to be put in execu-
ton, before the young lady's sug-
gestion reached headquarters, yet 1t
is deemed only right to give Miss
Carroll full credit for what was an
independent conception with her.

The Saturday Press explains that
the consenting Independent candi-
dates have been invited to run by
leaders of that way in certain con-
stituencies. That course was the
only one open to ensure some sort
of action, in default of the existence
of organization. Our contemporary
leaves no room to doubt its consis-
tency regarding political methods.
1t, moreover, makes generous tribute
to the efforts of this paper upon
behalf of square, open and system
attic political action.

A CERTAIN REMEDY.-A young wo-
man who thought she was losing her
husbands affection went to a seventh
daughter of seventh daughter for a
love powder. The mystery woman told
her: 'Get piece of raw beef, cut
fiat, about half an inch thick. Slice
an onion in two and rub the meat on
both sides with it. Put on pepper and
salt and toast it on each side over a
red coal fire. Drop on it three Jumps

OoSUCCEssFUL.-A genius invented
an electrical contrivance which en-
abled him, by simply touching knob,
to start the fire in the morning with
out getting out of bed. He will not
apply for patent. One morning, by
some hitch in the arrangement, the
kitchen was set on fire, and the in
ventor was obliged to get out of bed
so rapidly, that he didn't have time to
put on all his clothes, and the loss was
$500 He says he would rather get up
ten mornings a week at his leisure,
than to turn out so hurriedly only one
morning.

The MEN WHO ARE PROMOTED -
The Manufacturers Gazette, in a recent
editorial, made the following statement
regarding young men and their ad-
vancement, which others than the
class to whom it is addressed will do
well to heed:
The young men who receive promo
tion are the young men who do not
drink on the sly. They are not the
men who are always at the front when
ever there is any strike, nor the men
who watch for the clock to strike
twelve, and leave their picks hanging
in the air They are not the men who
growl if they are required to attend to
some duty few minutes after the
whistle has sounded. They are the
men usually who pay the closest atten-
tlon to the details of their business,
who act as if they were trying to work
for their employer, instead of trying
to beat him at every crook and turn.
They are the men who give the closest
attention to every practical detail and
who look continually to see whether
they can do better or not. This class
OF men are never out of Job. They
are scarce. They never strike, they
never loaf, and they do not ask for
their pay two or three weeks before
pay day"

WHY SOME FARMERS DO NOT
SUCCEED.

They are not active and INDUSTRIOUS
They are slothful in everything.
They do not keep up with improve
ments.
They are welded to old methods.
They give no attention to details.
They think small things not import
ant.
They take no pleasure in their work
They regard labor as a misfortune.
They weigh and measure stingily.
They are wasteful and improvident.
They let their gates sag and fall
down.
They will not make compost.
They let their fowls roost in trees.
They have no shelter for stock
They do not curry their horses.
They leave their plows in the field.
They hang the harness in the dust.
They put off greasing the wagon.
They starve the calf and milk the
COW.
They don't know the best is the
cheapest.
They have no method or system
They have no ears for home enter
prise.
They see no good in a new thing.
They never use paint on The farm.
They prop the barn door with rail
They milk the cows late in the day.
They have no time to do things we'll
They do not read the best books and
newspapers.

BEAUTIFY YOUR HOMES.

BEAUTlFY YOUR HOMES.
The home should be as beautiful and
pleasant as it is possible to make it,
Home is the place of rest and enjoy
ment 1t is the refuge from care.
trouble and all the tumults and turmoils
of life. 1t is the one spot where the
hearts purest affections garner them
selves and seek their chosen resting
place. 1t is the woman's first duty to
make this dwelling place, over which
she is the mother queen, as CHEEKY,
cozy and lovely as she can. The first
requisite for this desired consummatiOn
is that she herself be happy, hopeful
pleasant and contentedly agreeable
10 become this she must live hygieni-
cally, she must eat proper food, wear
comfortable clothes and not be op-
pressed by too many cares and burdens.
If she is her own housekeeper she
should study to do her work on the
most simple and easy plan, cook but
few dishes at a time, and have each
as perfect in itself as possible
Woman has no more important
duty than that of making home pleas
ant. Neatness and cleanliness are in
dispensable to a CHEEKY, cozy-looking
room. A plain room, plainly furnished
and scrupulously clean, is far more
bright and beautiful than more pre-
n1,@1 ~ oh ,lN-o nI t1xr
furniture that is soiled, mutilated and
always in disorder. \ few thrifty
nicely kept Towering plants or trailing
vines are one of the most enlivening
adjuncts to living room, and IL shell
tered, sunny window is far better for
them, in moderately cool weather,
than the over-heated and often dusty
inside position, and they are just as
easily seen also. \ few wnice pictures on
the walls are always pleasing; but no
picture that shocks the feelings should
ever have a place there. Pictures of
war, murder, deathbed scenes. animal
fights and other soul-harrowing views
ought never to be made at all, and es-
pecially allowed within the sacred pre-
cincts of home. Bright, gay, happy
and inspiring views alone should meet
the gaze of the family circle
Should there be unsightly objects in
the room or recesses that contain un-
necessary adjuncts to comfort and con-
venience, a bright chintz curtain will
screen them from view and will of it
self make a pleasant resting-place for
the eye. Should a bit of plastering
fall from the wall piece of white mus
lin neatly pasted over the place will
hide the defect and save all further
scaling off and drippings of litter In
thousand ways one can veil the ugly
and add to the beautiful, until the
humblest home may become the very
bower of pleasantness and cheerful
ness.
The love of the beautiful needs the
fostering care of every one who would
make life pleasant and happy. Who
ever creates a lovely picture, whether
on canvass, in poem, or on the broad
brown bosom of mother earth, or in a
coy, cheerful home, adds to the worlds
priceless treasure, and does something
toward elevating, refining, and happi-
flying the race.

A ball thrown from the uppermost
window of the Washington monument,
the superintendent thinks, cannot be
caught by the most expert catcher. 1t
is calculated roughly that the ball
would take about five and a half sec
onds to descend, and at the bottom
would be going at the rate of about 1870
feet per second, or in the neighbor-
hood of two miles per minute. The
resistance to be offered by the person
who attempts to catch it would be
only about 10 pounds, Or in other
words, he would have to put forth
enough strength to lift that weight
