The Treatment OF Frostbittcn Fingers
and Toes.

DR.. Lapatin, in the proceedings Of the Cau-
casian Medical Society,"" advises that fingers
and toes which have been slightly frostbitten,
and which subsequently suffer from burning,
itching and pricking ensations, should be-
painted. at first once, and afterward twice a
day, with mixture of dilute nitric acid and
peppermint water in equal proportions. After
this application has been made for three or four
days, the skin becomes darkened and the epi-
dernis is shed, healthy skin appearing under
it. The cure is effected in from ten to fourteen
days. The author has found this plan very Of
fectual among soldiers, who were unable to
wear their boots In consequence Of having had
frozen feet. They were, in this way, soon rem
dered capable of returning to duty.-BritisA

Australian Wheat

The London Miller states tho wheat harvest
IN the Australian colonies has 50 far progress.
etf as to render it possible to form more def.
mite opinion as to the probable result. Tele-
graphic adviees from south Australia speak Of
the harvest there as very unsatisfactory, which
confirms the early estimates and advices from
thence, which were to the effect that the sur
plus for export would amount to about s, 7Oo,-
600 bushels, against 10, 700, 600 bushels in 1886.
Meanwhile 1t has to be neted that very little in
the way Of chartering vessels to load wheat at
Australian ports has been done.

Messrs. R. D. Hubbard &, Co., Of Mankato,

quarter, which is the lowest price English
wheat has reached for 100 years." The ''quar-
teri mentioned above is 40 pounds, or eight
bushels and in United States money the price
paid In Liverpool at the date Of this letter was
90h cents per bushel. This bit OF news will
give our farmers cue to tho reason for

paid by our buyers wheat could not be exported
at a less loss than Is or 20 cents on every

which they were offered within 15c per bushel
of their terms, the bid being &c below thep price
for May, the wheat to be put free on board.
The wheat would be exported If sold to this

TALLAHAssEETO THOMAsvILLE
The Prospects that the New Road
will be Built Brighter than Ever

Inc prospects UnaC the New Road
will be Built Brighter than Ever
TALLAHASSEE, FLA, July 31.-During
the past few days letters have been re-
ceived by business men here from capt.
talists abroad which indicate that the
prospects for the early building of the
much needed railroad between this
city and ThOmasvIlle are more encour-
aging than at any period.
A large body of the most valuable lands
on the Gulf coast south of Tallahassee
have recently been acquired by persons
who are both able to improve them and to
aid in the construction of a railroad lead
ing to them from some accessible point on
the Georgia system of roads. The old road
now In operation between this city and
st. Marks, on the Cult coast, can
be purchased at a sacrifice, and it could
with trit1ing expenditures be put in first
class order to form part OF a road lead
ing from the Georgia system direct to
deep water on the Gulf. The whole dis
lance is less than 90 miles, and by build
ing the connecting link between this place
and ThOmasVille a most profitable feeder
would be had for the roads leading North.
The fish and timber trade alone would
make handsome returns for the road, to
say nothing of the large increase Oftravel
that would be attracted to the superior
resorts for summer and winter visitors
located all along the Gulf coast. The To-
cations and advantages offered
by any of these healthful places
are far superior to most resorts in the
State. There fishing, rowing, hunting and
bathing can be enjoyed as 1t can no where
else, because the streams leading to the
Gulf are deep and clear for rowing; game
is abundant and convenient; fish abound
in great plenty, and the bathing is said 10
be most excellent. All these attractions
for visitors land having these resting
places within easy reach OF the people Of
Georgia, Florida and other near States,
| together with the local business, would
soon make a road pay for itself. The
country through which the proposed road
would pass is the nnest in the State
This short link would place us Just
| twelve hours nearer Savannah, thus
making truck farming profitable by
furnishing quicker transportation. Mid
die Florida has long suffered from the
lack of adequate means of transit, and
! this lack mas retarded the growth and
| Improvement of the most fertile and
picturesque portion of the State. Jack
sonville is six hours from Savannah,
while Tallahassee little further west
is twenty hours from Savannah. No
country in the world can advance under
! such a condition OF affairs. There is fine
opportunity here for persons having the
means and energy to correct these evils
and encourage the people to progress
onward

they found that Con. Virgins

night. No certain cause seemed
to suit the situation. The tall

atiyely small number Of sales were
noticed.
The mines were looking better
than ever and soon the stock rallied
and went climbing up again. II
requires quick man to keep his
feet in such q market. There arc
several theories. One is, that the
public got alarmed when the brok-
ers announced no Monday Board
Two days in succession, aud 10
Board. gave the insiders time to
concect all sorts Of jobs and the
stock buyers have begun to realize
that when the brokers make a move
it is for the brokers and no one
else. They began to sell, but why
so small amount of sales should
break a market, is the mystery.
The most plausible theory is that a
continued raise on the market
would smash lot more firms, and
the parties dealing with them in
the Board would be losers.
These shaky firms have contracts
to deliver stock, which will expire
during the next ten or fifteen days,
and it was clear that they would be
unable to fill the shorts. As they
had to deliver stock to the majority
of the Board, what was more sim
pie than for the members Of the
Board to say: eve will smash
the stock on Tuesday and give you
all chance to fill.
All agreed, the shaky firms fill
their shorts, load up for themselves
and then are ready to side with a
long market and credit unimpaired.
1t will be a fluctuating market
from this on.
