In the market places of several
Western Mexico towns peasant women
bring in for sale trays, covered with
living ants. each about as big and
round as large white currant, and
each entirely filed with honey or grape
sugar, much appreciated by the in
genuous Mexican youth as an excellent
substitute for toflee. They hold the
ant by its head and suck out the
honey, with which its back parts are
greatly distended, and throw away the
empty body. Women buy the ants by
the quart, press out the honey through
a muslin strainer and make it into q
sweet intoxicant that is greatly en-
ioyed by Mexican youth and hus-
hands

inner harbor.
Scattered over the estate arose the
luxuriant tropical growths o the island
palms OF many kinds bearing fruity
clusters; varieties of cactus-the club,
the maguey and other sorts; the bam-
loo, tall and supple; the mangroye,
standing tiptoe on its rooty stills along
anders trimmed for n windbreak around
the roses and lily field. The lilies were
cultivated in rows, like onions, and
thousands of them are now spreading
their great snowy blossoms to the sky,
and burdening the air with sweetness
These are of no value whatever, and
sometimes they are torn off and de-
stroyed Systematically, in order to give
vigor to the bulb beneath.
In all the fields, even those contain
ing several acres, all the lilies turn TO
the sun, like obedient soldiers to their
commander Perhaps il would be more
nearly CORE I to say that they turn to
the light: for it is noticeable that they
turn resolutely away from the shadow,
even if it lie necessary to set their backs
to the sun. This o ten happens on the

Alcohol from " God.


u utlif helI ~ uE y UT a.
The manufacture of alcohol from
wood has become an important industry
in many counties in Tennessee. Wood
when subjected TO heat OF from 400
degrees to 200 degrees, is resolved into
charcoal, pyroligneous acid and hydro
carbon gases. The first OF the products,
carbon or charcoal, is a fixed fuel Ibis
acid is made up Of crude acetic acid,
wood spirit, creosOte, tarry compounds
and water The third division of wood
products is made up Of uncomfortable
hydro-carbon gases. These fixed gases
constitute a very valuable fuel. The
proportion of these wool products are
about as follows: Charcoal, quarter
Of the original weight of the wood;
pyroli neous acid, wo-quarters, and the
uncondensed gases one-quarter.

MADISON, Wis, July AT the Dane
County Medical Society's annual meeting
last evening an interesting and unusual
feature was the exhibition by DR.. Settlers,
OF Stoughtou, Of a young Norwegian, named
Iverson, who was suffering from leprosy.
Thepatient presented horrible appearance,
his face being bloated and covered with
ugly blotches, the whole red in color and
strangely unnatural. The skin was thick
on his face, hands and feet, and could be
pricked severely without the patient feeling
any pain. The disease developed in Iverson
two years ago, being preceded by rheuma-
tic sensation. The disease is hereditary in
the Iverson family, though previous to the
present amentable case it had not devel-
opeh for several generations. Leprosy is
in this vicinity and VERSIONS case has
caused sensation not confined to medical

THE CONSULAR reports on the condition
of labor in Europe are anything else than
favorable to the hopes of the protectionists
in this country, inasmuch as they show that
the wages of labor are higher and the con-
dition of the laborers better in free trade
England than in any of The protection coun-
tries of Europe. Were it not for the peculiar
advantages of new and comparatively
speaking sparsely settled country, where
land is cheap, the existing high tariff would
have rendered the condition Of the work

fax Herald says: Murray is the individual who
stole several horses from the citizens Of this
