To Preserve Ropes.

The plan has been proposed by a
competent authority in such matters
that, in order to insure greater strength
and consequently more safety in ropes
used for scaffolding purposes-par
larly in those localities where the at
mosphere proves destructive of hemp
fiber-such ropes should be dipped
when dry into bath containing twenty
grains of sulphate of copper per litre Of
water, and allowed to soak in this solu-
ton some four days. By pursuing this
method, which is claimed to be much
more practicable and effective than any
other yet resorted to for this purpose,
it is found that the ropes will thus have
absorbed certain quantity of sulphate
Of copper, which will preserve them Tor
some time both from the attacks of ami
NAL parasites and from rot.

Under the shelter of protective

have organized a powerful industry
which rivals that of England in cheap
ness"

sion on that same Exposition reported:
''The present condition of American
manufactures shows the fallacy of the
free trade doctrine that the productions
of d country are raised in price by pro-
tective duties"
Prince Bismarck has said in address
ing the German Reichstag:
Because it is my deliberate judg-
ment that the prosperity of America is
mainly due to it's system of prote ctive
laws, [ urge that Germany has now
reached that point where it is neces-
sary to initiate the tariff system of the
United States"

George Grossmith and the Laird.

From ''A Society Clown" by G. Grossmith.
A laird sent his Scotch butler to me
one evening to make inquiries respect
ing my entertainment. The butler, an
elderly, pompous and exceedingly stu
pld man, produced piece of note paper
containing string of questions which
he was instructed to ask me. The first
question was: "Can Mr.. Grossmith give
an entertainment at Aberdeen on Janu-
airy p" | replied that my nightly en-
gagement at the theater would totally
prevent my accepting an engagement at
Aberdeen. l could only sing at after
noon parties in town, or a short
distance from it. The butler, with a
broad Scotch accent which [ need not
initiate here, said: "Ye'll have the
goodness to answer thisquestion, please.
Can Mr.. Grossmith give an entertain
ment at Aberdeen on January +"
''No; [ cannot" replied. The butler
continued reading, "What will be his
terms?" "But 1 cannot CO." / argued.
"Ye'll save deal O. time If ye'll answer
the questions, please. What'l be the
terms?" "Well, we will say hundred
guineas, as can't co." answered, en-
deavoring to restrain myself from burst
ing out laughing in his face. The butler
made note of the terms, and con-
tinued:
"Will the entertainment be consist
ent ?"
"What? '' calculated. evil the en-
tertainment be consistent? ?" For the
life of me | could not see what he
meant. "Yes-consistent." l thought
a little, and then said "Would you
kindly explain the question, / do not
understand it in the least" The butler
said "Well. you must know, the
laird is a strict Presbyterian, and all
the guests will be strict Presbyterians,
and he wants to know if your
entertainment will be consistent
"Now l understand you," / replied
Certainly, my entertainment will be
quite consistent. I am always very
careful, and shall sing only Presbyterian
comic songs" He made note of my
remark in the most serious way, and
left, saying: "The laird himself will
write to say if he can accept the terms. .
That occurred nearly ten years ago, and
the laird has not written yet.

Doctors Should Write Plain,

The Medical Register philadelphia J,
under the heading of Zone Of the Lost
Arts, takes the doctors to task for not
writing their prescriptions more intelli-
gibly. The writer claims that the drug
glst is liable to, and frequently does,
make mistakes from misinterpreting the
writing, and that the life of the patient
is imperiled by their wretched chirog-
raphy. The ordinary prescription is
often as undecipherable as Egyptian hi
eroglyphics written upon papyrus of
three thousand years ago, and what is
worse, there does not seem to be any
tendency toward improvements the
modern belief being that bad penman-
ship is an evidence of genius. The re-
suit is that the patients do not get the
medicines ordered by the physician, or
that which the physician supposes he
orders.
Some years ago, the writer formed the
acquaintance Of a druggist who said that
he did not pretend to follow the pre-
scriptlons sent him, because in many in
stances it would be unsafe for the pa
tent to take the dose, and frequently
the chlrography was SO miserable that
it was impossible to make out just what
the doctor wanted. He was consequent
ly compelled to treat the patients him
self, although to all appearances they
were under the care of the regular ply
stefan. This plan was adopted after due
deliberation and trial, the druggist find
ing that when prescriptions were
returned for correction that was
generally the end of the bust
ness, the prescriptions being sent else
where. Let us call halt upon this fail
ing, as it is due largely to sheer negli-
gence; and when the writing becomes
too burdensome by reason of lack of
time, it would be the part of wisdom to
employ a competent clerk for the pur-
pose. By this means, it is hoped that
we may be able to revive, if not redis-
better for the patient and, furthermore,
will cause the druggist no sleepless
nights, such as now threaten to drive

The Comedian Married I'm Chicago TO an
Eastern Lady.

The Comedian Married I'm Chicago TO an
Eastern Lady.
CHICAGO, Ill.,, Oct. 1S.-Nat c. Good
win, the well-known comedian, was pri-
vately married in this city few days
ago to Miss Nellie Baker, who is de-
scribed as a prominent society woman
from the East. Great precau-
tons were taken to keep TIE
nuptials profound secret, and
they were partially successful. The
marriage license was suppressed, and
only one or two of Goodwin's most
trusted and intimate friends were adj
mitted to the ceremony. The story
leaked out, however, in spite of the pre-
cautions. Goodwin admits that he is
married.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Oct. 1S.-The lady
who is reported to have been married
to Nat. Goodwin, the actor, was formerly
Mrs. E. G. Pease, of this city. She was
divorced some time ago.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Good
win was recently sued for breach of
promise in New York by Miss Leila
Farrell, former member of his COM
pany, who claimed to have received
many love-letters from him before the
death of his former wife, whose stage
name was Eliza Weathersby, and who
died about year and half ago.

THE CHINESE MUST GO.
A Converted Celestial, British Subje ct
STAYS In Canada.

Fong Tang, a converted Chinaman,
age q, without queue and dressed in
English clothing, accompanied by his
English wife, age %, from Toronto, ar
rived at Niagara Falls on the 18th
from that city, en- route for New
York. The customs authorities on the
American side stopped them and would
not allow Fong Tang to enter the Unit
ed States, although it was permissible
for his wife to do SO. But she would
not go on without her husband. Fong
Tang, being British subject by natur-
alization and Christion. had thought
he would undoubtedly nave the same
privileges as other British subjects. He
speak English we'll.
FoEg Tang and wife crossed over to
the American side the same night by
the foot-bridge. They stopped at the
New York Central Hotel at Suspension
Bridge, n Y, all night. After break
fast next morning they walked to the
New York Central Depot to get their
baggage re-checked for New York, and
ran into the arms of the American
customs officers. The latter seemed
greatly surprised to find on American
soil the Chinaman whom they had re-
fused admission the evening before and
they forthwith hustled him back to
Canada
