terview with NJ. de Giers, IN which the
Russian Foreign Minister said he would
return to st. Petersburg on Sept. 3. He
would go via Berlin and have another
conference with Prince Bismarck. Moth
ing final had been decided with regard to
Bulgaria in his recent interview with the
German Chancellor, as it was not known
to Sofia. NJ. de Giers said he did not
know what the Cars present intentions
were, but he was sure Russia would
not occupy Bulgaria while that country
was tranquil. Russla's position would be
very delicate and critical should Prince
Alexander insist upon the execution OF
the men who led the conspiracy against
him. NJ. de Giers spoke in condemnation
OF Prince AleXander's course, and allud-
ing to England's action IN the premises.

Sicily is the chief source of mama; In
that country the trees are cultivated in
plantations, and when about years old
they begin to yield. Cuts an inch and a
half to two inches long are made in the
bark, cutting through to the wood. One
rut is made daily, beginning near the
bottom of the trunk, with each succeed.
ing cut about an inch above the former
one. The thick, sirup-like juice exudes
from the cuts and hardens on the bark
into white spongy flakes, which when
hard enough are removed and dried stall
further before they are packed for COM
merce. 1t consists mainly Of form of
sugar called mantle, and has mild, laxa-
tive properties.
There, are, in dry Oriental countries,
several other trees and shrubs also, which
yield mamma, usually when punctured by
insects; but little is known of these kinds
OF mama outside of the localities that
produce them. Even some of those
plants, low in the or'ier of vegetation
known as lichens, produce mama. These
are like the plants often seen on old trees
and on rocks, which are incorrectly
alled "mosses." Several of these, viii h
gov very rapidly on ne ground, are en-.
crusted with sort of sugar or manna.-

IT HAS been remarked from time to
time hat artesian wells are multiply.
ing in large numbers especiallyin large
cities, where the water is at times, OF
all the time, quite unfit for domestic
purposes, and where large factories
find the meter charges and tax too
expensive. Among the latter class il
has been proven by experiment that
an artesian well soon repays its cost
with interest, but among the former it
is luxury which can be beindulged in
only by people of means. The cost OF
an artesian well is comparatively
small now TO what il was ten years
ago, competition in the business hav-
ing had the effect of reducing the
price. The wells are now made very
much in the same way as are those
from which oil is obtained. The great
difference between the two, however,
is that the water does not usually
spout" 1t generally makes its way
to the surface and is pumped up to
whatever height is wanted. The pos
session of an artesian well, therefore,
involves that Of pump, the cost of
the pump and the expense of run
ming it.

Boyd Winchester, the consul general OF

regard To the cheese industry Of that cour,.

the cheese-makers OF Ills country will be

WHILE little has been said in New
England for several years about the
advantages of reciprocity with Can

Scotia and New Brunswick. A Hall

that there is very little commercial
Relationship between the several prov
inces of Canada, but there is natural
and unconquerable relationship be-
tween each province of this Dominion
and the states to the south of it. Ar
tificial barriers are unwise and mis-
chievous, and this is the great lesson
we have all got To take to heart.
Nova Scotia's commercial interests
are eternally bound up with the New
England states. 1t goes much deeper
than any mere fisheries question; II
relates to all articles of commerce and
barter.r Meanwhile it is becoming
plain to all on this side of the line. ex-
cept those who refuse to see, that the
almost daily controversies over fish
ing and commercial rights can be ad.
justed by the ratification of new
treaty of some sort between the United
States and Great Britain. The treaty,
when 1t comes, can well have broad
