The last place at which our train drew up,
that proved by far the most interesting, was
Tia Juana, part of which lies in the United
States and part in Mexico. As we all trooped
across the border we were cautioned not to
get tangled up in the lines; several of US
stood up on the fat, square monument that
marks the dividing line, and far away could
be seen the tall, white marble monument
that marks more majesrcally the national
limits
As we bent our heads under the eag Of
Mexico, We found ourselves III an utterly
strange and novel environment. Behind US
were American frame buildings, the Amer

attributes; before US spread the low, white
somnolent adobes, groups of cattle beneath
awnings Of verdant houghs, and the swarthy
Mexican under broad sombrero, booted and
spurred, riding like mad on his Mexican
mustang, with lasso hurled after some rec
creant beast, or reclining with a dolce far
niente air under an srbor of green branches
"a picturesque, posing figure, with scarlet
kerchief hiding the glitter OF dirk, while
he indolently quaffed his beloved pulque.
The place was made up of series of poor
little struggling adobes, and the people were
all evidently OF the poorest class; but there
were on every hand elements of the pic
turesque. From the poorest, most crumb

Mr.. Dnbus Bonnet, of Lille, France, has
invented a process of spinning and weaving
glass into cloth. The warp is composed Of
silk, forming the body and groundwork, on
which the pattern in glass appears, as effected
by the welt. The requisite fexibility of glass
thread for manufacturing purposes is to be
ascribed to its extreme fneness, ,as not less than
from fifty to sixty of the original strands are
required to form one thread Of the weft. The
process is slow, for no more than yard Of
cloth can be produced in twelve hours. The
work, however, is extremely beautiful and
comparatively cheap. A French paper, com
menting on the discovery, says: when we
figure to ourselves an apartment decorated
with cloth of glass and resplendent with
light, we must be convinced that it will
equal in brilliancy all that the imagination
can conceive and realize; in word, the
wondsrs of the enchanted palaces mentioned
| in tns Arabian tales. scientific American.

a Double Help for the BIlllour.

In addition to that chief remedial
measure--the use of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters-persons suffering from an acute
bilious attack, will facilitate recovery by
the use ct first of milk and lime water
and thin gruels, and BY very gradual
return to the use of solid foods. Fatty
substances should be excluded from the
diet. Blue pill is remedy of doubtful
safety, particularly if there be nausea and
vomiting, frequent concomitants of liver
trouble. The Bitters, provided its re-
formatory action be not retarded and
marred by gross indiscretions in diet, will
soon restore the equilibrium OF and action
of the liver, stomach and bowels, all three
disordered by billiousness. In all forms
of malarial disease. which in every one
