TREES FElLED BY ELECTRICITY.
A wooaman's Axe will Soon be = Thing 81
The Past.

A wooa,nMn's Axe will Soon be- = Thing 81
the Past.
Hitherto machines for telling trees
have been driven by steam power, but
this is sometimes ~inconvenient, es-
pecially in thick woods, and electric
power has recently been adopted in the
Galician forests. Usually in such ma.
chimes the trunk is sawed, bat in this
case it is drilled. When the wood is OF
a soft nature the drill has a sweeping
motion and cuts into the trunk by
means of cutting edges on its sides,
The drill is actuated by an electric mo-
tor mounted on a carriage, which is
brought up close to the tree and shack
led to it. The motor is capable o.
turning round its verticle axis, and the
drill is geared to it in such a manner
that it can turn through an are of q
circle and make a sweeping cut into
the trunk.
The first cut made the drill is ad.
vanced a few inches and another sec.
ton of the wood removed in the same
way until the trunk is half severed.
It is then stamped to keep the cut
from closing, and the operation contin'
ued until it would be unsafe to go on.
The remainder is finished by a hand
saw or an axe. The current is conveyed
to the motor by insulated leads brough,
through the forest from a generator
placed in some convenient site.-LOn.

The Stomach DistIlls Acids.

These, II existent in . natural quantity, and
unvitisted by bile, play their part in the func-
tions Of digestion and assimilation. But the a.
tihcial acid resulting from the inability OF the
stomach TO convert food received by 1t into sus-
t~enance, IL the producer Of fatulence and heart
burn, which arc the most harassing symptoms
OF dyspepsia. The best csrminative is Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters. Ear more effective IL 1t
than carbonate Of soda, msgnesia. or other alka-
line salts. These invariably weaken the stomach
without producing permanent benefit. No man
or woman chronically dyspeptic, and conse-
quently nervous, can be In possession OF the full
measure Of vigor allowed by nature. Therefore,
invigorate and regulate the system, and by SC
doing protect it from malaria, rheumatism, and
other serious maiadies.

Dlesd Oranges.

The blood orange is q mere variety Of
the sweet orange obtained by cultiva-
ton, and appears first to have been
raised by the Spanish gardeners in the
Philippine islands, from the capital OF
which (Manila) it, together with the
we'll known cigars, formed at n time
one Of the chief articles Of export. On
its first appearance in Europe it excit-
ed a considerable sensation and in the
last century very high prices were de-
manded for the trees which bore the
wonderful fruit. None, however, now
come to us from Manila, n supply
being derived almost entirely from
Malta, where great pains and attention
are bestowed upon their cultivation. 1t
was for a long time supposed, and in
deed the idea is not yet quite extinct,
that blood oranges were produced 10y

pomegranate; but there is not the
slightest foundation for this belief
