A Good Thing to Keep at Hand.

From the Troy, Kan. Chief.
We have occasion to use but little of the
numerous medicines advertised in our pa
per; but we have found one to fill the bill of
what is claimed for it, and take pleasure in
saying SO. That is Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrnea Remedy. Some years
ago we were very much subject to severe
spells of cholera morbus; and now when we
feel any of the symptoms that usually pre-
cede that ailment, such as sickness at the
stomach, diarrhes, etc., we become scary.
We have found Chamberlain's Remedy the
very thing to strsighten one out in such
cases, and always keep it about. 1t is some
what similar to the usual cholera cures, but
seems to contain Ingredients that render it
more pleasant to take, and that do their
work more quickly. Sheriff Devereux tells
us that he is subject to cholera morbus, and
recently felt spell coming on, when he OBJ
tanned a bottle of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhna Remedy, and two
doses made him all right. We are not writ
ing this Tor pay testimonial, but to let our
readers know what is a good thing to keep
handy in the house.

The Panama Hat.

The leaves of many palms are largely en-
ployed for making hats. The, Panama hat,
which is the best known, and which is SO
called from being shipped from that port. is
made from the finely plated fiber of the
leaves of the South American screw pine.
These hats are much priced for wear in the
tropics, being light and flexible and easily
washed and bleached. Beyond this they
possess a very important recommendation in
a climate where sunstroke has to be guarded
against. In the better qualities the plating
is so close that the sun cannot strike through
to the head of the wearer, and thus one Of
the advantages of a plth helmet is secured.
In the rainy season the hats are
apt to get black, but by washing
with soap and water, soaking them with
lime juice or any other acid, and exposing
them to the sun their whiteness is restored.
The plating is very tedious and trouble
some. The coarse hats may be made in two
or three days, but the fine ones takes as
many months to finish. The plating,
which is done on block, commences at the
crown and ends at the brim. These hats
are distinguished from all others by con-
sistlng only of a single piece, and their
lightness and fexibility is such that the
finest qualities can be rolled up and put in
the waistcoat pocket without injury, and on
being taken out they will instantly resume
their original shape. The hats vary in
price according to fneness and quality from
S. to $500 each. A valuable Panama hat is
practically indestructible, and is very often
passed down as an heirloom from one gen.
Grafton to another.

Tanning by Electricity.

The time taken for the completion of the
electrical tanning process varies from two
to five days, according to the nature of the
hides, after which the hides are removed,
dried, rolled and finished as in the ordinary
mode. The saving OF time is not the only
advantage gained; it is no longer necessary
to take into account the interest on the cost
of the goods lying idle in the pits, while the
quicker turn over of capital offers already a
great advantage; furthermore, consider
able saving is made in the cost of the tan
ming itself, which is reduced to 81 or 4
cents per pound of dry leather, whereas by
the old method double that figure would
have to be reckoned on. AS regards the
quality of the leather tanned by this process
il is stated that all the requisites of solidity.
fneness and suppleness, which are the neces-
ssry qualities of the best leather are re-
tanned.

EYE PIECE FOR THE LICK TELESCOPE
PREPARED FOR THE DISPATCH ]

Mr., Stanley's remarks concerning the
African rubber supply have given rise to a
very lively discussion of the rubber ques-
tion. While the rubber forests of the Congo
are beyond question immense, the world
must still look to the Americas for its
best rubber, and the day is probably not far
distant when Mexico aud Central America
will have rubber forests covering them, un-
der cultivation, that will be more productive
and more profitable than the whole of the
Congo region. Orchards of considerable
size OF the Caucho a tree of rapid growth,
have already been planted and cultivated
by planters, and the results have been in
every way so satisfactory as to induce the
belief that an enormous industry could soon
be proftably established.
The product from the cultivated caucho,
being clean, is of much greater value than
that of the tree in its wild state. It has
been pointed out that the whole secret of
successful rubber gathering is accessibility.
White men in the Congo region are not
success. Black men in that region are not
hard workers, and will always be shiftless
and unreliable. On the other hand, were
these forests in Central America, along the
line of railroads, help could be obtained
easily, and with proper care the laborers
could be kept tolerably healthy. One of
the most important matters in connection
with the Amazonian rubber trade, as it is
also one of the most important problems in
South America, is the linking of Manaos
with the outer world by telegraph. Manaos
is at the head of navigation ON the Amazon
for regular ocean-going ships. It is the
natural center for the trade of eight great
Brazilian rivers, as we'll as for the immense
region OF Eastern Peru, and these eight
rivers drain the best rubber districts. There
is a splendid field here for Americans, who
should hasten by establishing lines of COM
munication to make the enterprise their
own, for there is little doubt if it is not done
by America it will at no very distant date
be done by England.
The operations in the woods connected with
the gathering of rubber are very crude.
First the tree is tapped, and the exuding
milk is collected. The incision is no deeper
than the bark, and the receiving cups, of
about half a pint capacity, are fastened just
below the wound. The milk is taken at
once to the camp, where it is smoked over a
fire of palm nuts. The fire is built on the
open ground, or within a little crib of green
sticks, and the milk is poured upon q round
stick or paddle blade. and passed through
the pungent smoke. This operation requires
great care, otherwise the rubber, instead of
becoming homogeneous gum, will be
coagulated in part, which reduces the prod
uct to an inferior grade. The reputation
which certain rivers possess for sending
good rubber to the market depends almost
entirely upon the ability of those who do
the smoking.

Cleaning FIle. By EIectricItz.

The file manufacturers are not disposed to
regard with much complacency the recent
application of electricity to the cleaning of
files. by which process the tools are made
virtually as good as new. After being cleaned
and wetted the files are dipped between two
carbons into acidified water, and the circuit
of an electric current is established by
means of a piece of metal upon which the
file rests. The water is decomposed by the
current the oxygen acting upon the cuttings
of the file, while the hydrogen bubbles set
tie in the teeth and protect them against the
