against unheathful influences; upon which they
can implicitly rely since 1t prevents the effects
that an unhealthy climate, vitiated atmosphere,
suaccustomed or unwholesome diet, bad water, or

by land in ATTITUDES adjacent to the equator it is
especially useful as n preventive OF the febrile
complains and disorders of the stomach, liver and
bowels. which are apt to attack natives of the
temperate zones sojourning or travelling in such
regions and is an excellent protection against the

Deepest Coal Mine in the World.

The deepest coal mine is at St. Andre
du Porter. France. and yearly pro.
duces 100000 tons OF coal. The MIND
is worked with two shafts, one 1852
feet deep and the other 3.083. The
latter shaft is now being deepened and
will soon touch the 4,O00-foot level. A
remarkable feature in this deep mine
is the comparative low temperature ex-
perienced. which seldom rises above 20
degrees Fahrenheit. The gold and
silver mines of the Pacific coast Of
our own country. at depth of less
than half that OF the French coal mine.
often have much difficulty to admit OF
working. In some levels Of the great
Comstock lode the temperature rises As
high as 100 degrees.

DostoH NMdSs.) nccorus june
Golden fruitage has fallen from Tho
Louisiana State Lottery Company plumb into
the pocket Of a well-known citizen Of Boston.
1t is Alfred A. Marcus this time, and the
plum struck him 100000 worth. Alfred
Marcus is a familiar figure on our streets,
having had extensive dealings in real estate.
and he is generally conceded very shrcwd
business man. In religious circles he figures
as one OF the strictly orthodox Jews. He
not only has built two synagogues, but in
one Of them on Church street he Is the rabbi,
and there is seen every Saturday conducting
the service and reading the sermon. One
day last week he pad of the mortgage on
one of his churches, which, it has leaked
out, was due to his good fortune In securing
the plum from The Louisiana State Lottery
pie. 1t seems that few days previous to
the drawing Of May 18th, lie bought whole
ticket, No. 80, s25. He paid $50 for the ticket,
and on the May 10 drawing found his was the
lucxy numb.r, (3e, s25) and had drawn the
entire second capital prize OF 100000. The
next morning going to C. H. Allen of the
Central National Bank, the money was sent
fer and received on Friday, May 90.

How Portuguese Carry Water.

Spanish, Portuguese and Indian peo
pie have a way Of cooling water COM
mon to them all, but the Portuguese
Inhabitants of the Azores and Madeira
have little touch of their own which
travellers in the east have failed to note.
They draw their water fresh from deep,
dark wells. or the public fountains, into
big terra-cotta water coolers. Then
they wash some big ferns and thrust
them down into the water, there to give
up their earthly GOODNESS. This little
scheme, which is highly satisfactory
from the Portuguese point of view. was
evolved in the same way, evidently, as
the Indian learned to make soup by
dropping red hot stones into the potage.
The ferns are used by the Portuguese
milkmen also to act as leafy umbrellas
TO the big gourds and jars of milk they
carry on pole across their shoulders,
fresh ones being plucked from time to
time. They also answer the same pur-
pose as does the block of wood which
horsemen put into pail of water that
goes into freight car with travelling
horse. They keep the milk from slosh.

Action of Nlildew on Cotton Fabrics.
Owing to its comparative freedom
from impurity cotton may be stored for
long period without undergoing any
change, more especially if it is bleached
and kept dry. When, however, it is
contaminated with added foreign Or
ganic matter, such as starch. gum, ETC.,
Gas in finished calicoes), and then eX-
posed to a moist, warm atmosphere,
it is very liable gradually to become
tender or rotten. This is owing to
the growth of vegetable organisms of n
very low order called mildew, These
fungi feed upon the starchy matters
present, inducing the decomposition,
and after some little time the cotton
tibers themselves are attacked. The
simultaneous production of crenic,

may probably assist somewhat in the
