mention Dr.. Carver's feat Of breaking glass

such enthusiastic terms q remedy that
cured him of bright's disease eight years

iession, with all its power and experience OF

true; there is no mistake about it but that
Warmers safe cure is really q wonderfully

Mn FRANK A. Burr. of the Philadel
phia Times, is engaged upon a very i'm
portant literary work. 1t is a review Of
the military and civil career of Gen Grant
under the patronage of many Of the
warmest friends OF the old hero. The
work is being written in an entirely differ
ent VEN and style from any of the many
books heretofore published on the life of
the great captain. Most of the eminent
mcn in the country, both in military and
civil life, are contributing their reminis-
ccnses Of Grant to Mr.. Burr, as well AS
theie Judgment Of his acts both As soldier
and citizen. These alone would make n
volume Of great interest and value. but
Mr. Burr, besides giving them a proper
digestion aud bright setting. is adding a
vivid view Of the Important events in
peace and war which have made Grants
name and fame world wide. 1t is a novel
way to write a book, but perhaps the only
one in which a truthful picture of n great
man = career can be framed, The leading
chapters of Mr., Burr's book have all been
completed, submitted and approved. From
their character it is discovered that the
author is putting into his book some of
the best work of his life.

industries of the country. A prominent
engraver OF New York says that several
years ago officers Of a certain clock com
pany came to him to know il he could
not make an engraved paper imitation
Of the french porcelain face that was
then used on their clocks. He spent
several hundred dollars on the expert
ment, and finally gave 1t up in despair,
through inability TO find paper that
would answer the purpose. The com
pany refused to let him stop his expert
menting, and he finally hit on a glazed
and enamelod paper which answered the
purpose. He has made from i2, 600, 900
to 4 200, 600 of clock faces for tho com
pauy, at a cost OF about l cent each
The old cost for porcelain was 81,
which is the present cost OF n clock com

cuted a contractor in a civil suit to recover
money paid to him, as was alleged, under
a fraudulent construction of his contract.
The government was beaten in the suit,
As it has been in all cases Of a similar
nature Agreat deal of surprise has been
expressed at the fact that in all the trials
nobody charged with fraud in star route
