Small Losses i'm the United States.

PITTsBURG, March 1s.-A Pittsburg rep
resentative of one of the heaviest copper
dealers, in speaking of the collapse of the
foreign syndicate, said: ''The failure affects
every consumer of copper in this country
just the same way as a drop in the price of
any commodity would affect holder. In
other words if house has 1000 pounds of
the copper which cost Is 1-2 cents, the syn
dicate price. and it goes back to 10 or IL
cents, he loses the difference. Fur
ther than that, 1 do not believe
American dealers will lose any
thing; in other words my recollection is
that none of the paper or certificates of the
syndicate are held in this country. Before
the syndicate was formed copper sold at IL
to II 1-2 cents and was forced up to 16 1-2
and even Il 1-2 cents for small lots in New
York. AS result, copper goods advanced.
Consumers, however. did not believe in the
durability of the syndicate, and bought only
from hand to mouth. Therefore, the
amount of copper in this country to-day is
unusually small. and losses on this account
will not be sufficient to cripple any one."

LONDON, March 1S-The failure of the
London agents Of the Societe des Metaux to
meet its engagements compelled the forced
sale of $50 tons of copper. The
idea spread that the whole of the
society's metal would be thrown on the
market Immediately. Such thing cannot
happen, however, because the banks hold
it as security against advances, and will
only realize on it on Opportune occasions.
The following has been received from
Paris: There is no sign of panic here.
On the contrary. prices are firmer, and both
the Bourse and Petite BOurse closed very
calm, Rio Tintos being quoted 277 francs,

HOW TO MAKE MAGNETS,


There are two general classes of
magnets-electrO-magnets and perma-
nent magnets. The electromagnetic is
active ouly when % current OF cleo
tricity is passing around it; the per-
manent magnet, as its name indicates,
retains its magnetism after the mag
netizing agent is removed. Electro
magnets are always made of soft iron,
while permanent ones are made Of
steel. An electro magnet can be easily
constructed as follows:
Procure from a blacksmith or from
any source q small soft-iron horseshoe
Commencing just above the heelcork
on n side, wind closely three or five
layers OF two inches length of No. 90
insulated copper wire. Without cut
ting the wire, proceed spirally along
the toe of the shoe, and then wind the
same number Of similar layers on the
other end.
All the windfngs must be in the same
direction in reference to the iron. If
now the ends of the wire be connected
with an electric battery, quite large
pieces of soft iron-for instance, large
nails or spikes-will be held up by the
~hcclcorks, which act as pole pieces.
As soon as the battery is d~isconnect-
cd the spike will fall. This, however,
would not be the case if the horseshoe
was made of steel, for it would then,
because of the passage OF the electric
current, have become u permanent
magnet. To pass an electric current
around a piece of steel IL, indeed, the
easiest way of making q permanent
magnet.
To try it, wind several layers of the
same wire used on the horseshoe
around a l~ead-pencil. Then carefully
remove the lead-pencil, ard insert in

It is a pretty severe test Of any doctors
skill when the payment of his fee is made
conditional upon his curing his patient. Yet
after having, for many years, observed the
thousands of marvellous cures effected in
liver, blood and lung diseases, by Dr..
Plerce's Golden Medical Discovery, its
manufacturers feel warranted in selling it,
as they are now doing, through all drug
glsts, the world over, under a certificate Of
positive guarantee that it will either benefit
or cure in every case Of disease for which
they recommend it, If taken in time and
given a far trial, or money paid for it will
be promptly refunded. Torpid liver, or
"biliousness," impure blood, skin eruptlons,
