A Fragrant, Rose-Colored Oil.

A Bowling Green (Ky.) correspon-
dent of the Philadelphia Times says:
"A well of mineral oil was discovered
near here yesterday by Ebenezer Cath
cart. owner of II truck garden, while
boring for water. 1t is so clear as to
be nearly transparent, of n beautiful
pale pink color, and, while entirely
odorIess when cold, if heated highly
emits n most delicious odor, resembling
somewhat altar of roses though more
delicate and subtle. An experiment
was tried with small quantity to test
it burning properties, when 1t was
found to burn slowly but steadily, Civ

GRANGE. When the oil was consumed,
mt the bottom of the vessel was found a
deposit of "A number of hard, minute
particles, looking like grIns of fine
stone-colored sand, which exploded on
being placed in water, with Incredible
violence when the size of the particles
is taken into consideration. The oil
and its precipitate are now being care

by the chemists here, whose opinion as
to their properties is being anxiousl y

and the highly explosive quality of

to IA discovery OF immense value to the
scientific if not to the commercial
world"

President Henry Rice of the United

nounces that Baron Hirsch's great gift
to the Hebrews in this country is COM
ing at the rate of $40, 600 a month. and
that two instaInents have already been
received. This money is to be used
exclusively for the benefit of Russian
Jews who have arrived within the last
two years and it is the intention of
the trustees of the fund TO use it
mostly in the establishment of Indus

idea is to make these people farmers

The Rev. j. w. Sproull of Pittsburg,
who is in Egypt writes of the great
Moslem university at Cairo, founded
in 975, which, with its 10000 pupils
and $40 professors. is said to be the
largest in the wor d. The pupils have
no benches or chairs. but study, eat,
and sleep on blanket or straw mat.
The Koran is the only book used for
grammar, law. philosophy and theol-
ogy. The professors receive no salary,
but are supported by private instruc-
ion, by copying books, and by pres
,nts from rich scholars. From this
great university goes forth annually a
small army of fanatics whose whole
influence is entirely and constantly
,xerted against progress and reform.

Dueling, which was universal among
the military classes in Japan prior tt
the revolution of 1868, and which haC
fallen greatly into disuse subsequent tc
that event, has of late shown tend
ency to revive, says the London Times,
and accordingly the government has al
last dealt with the subject. In a de.
cree signed by the emperor counter
signed by the prime minister and the
minister of justice, which has recently
been issued. it is provided that who
ever sends or accepts a challenge to
fight duel shall be punished with i'm.
prisonment, with hard labor for q
period of not less than six months and
and not more than two years together
with fine of from $40 to 500.

How An Englishman Takes Joke


You know that old joke of the

Strange? It's real roasted chestnut.
Strange had not a good reputation.
When he died he said to his wife: Il

"But how will they know it's your
tombstone?" asked the wife. ''Oh!
they will say, That's Strange" We'll, |

bright Englishman Uttered. Next time

said: II have now really good story
for you. Listen. There was once a
solicitor and his name was-what was
his nameP Oh, have it. His name
was Strange. Well, he died, and Just
before he died he called to his wife, and
said he: Mrs, Mrs. what was her

Strange, says he, i want IA real stun

it have put, Here lies virtuous man.

Lemon Soap and Orange Backing

Lemons are used for soap in many
countries where they grow. When, fol
instance. the men and women of the
West Indies want to wash their hands
they squeeze the juice of a lemon over
them and rub them briskly in water
until they are clean. There is an acid
in the lemon similar TO that used in
soap. And in countries where oranges
grow in great plenty country gentle
tlemen use the cheapest kind for black
ing their boots. The orange is cut in
two aud the juicy side of one half is
rubbed on the SCOT of an iron pot and
then on the boot. Then the boot is
rubbed with soft brush and a bright
polish at once appears. = Popular
