Uses of Seaweed.

The various uses to which seaweed is now found to be applicable are far in ex- cess of what were ever dreamed of in years past. Formerly iodine, bromine, magnesia, and potash salts were the chief products of this bountiful substance of nature, which was also employed, as is the case now, when more or less decom- posed, as fertilizer on land adjoining the seacoast, it's yield of ammonia being upwards of 3 per cent. Some varieties were collected as articles of food in Scot land, Ireland, Norway, etc. Of late years seaweed has been made into char coal, and into a material for whip handles, and still more recently the curi- ous substance known as algin has been produced from it, having been introduced as stratum &er photographic films, and for other purposes.
 From this material, algin, what is termed alginic acid is likewise obtained, and by acting upon the latter with nitric acid a new light colored dye, which is insoluble in water, but dissolves in aka lies, yielding brown solution, has been discovered. It is said that the ammo niacal solution of this new product dyes cotton a fine Bismarck brown, which is not removed by soap. and is found to be not only equal to aniline dyes of the same description, but to excel many of them. Unlike aniline dyes, this new product will dye cotton, but not wool, and its acid solutions will not act as dyes at all. Montreal Star.

A Faithful Servant for Sixty Year,

At the present time, when one of the chief troubles of housekeeping is the get ting and keeping of servants, record of one who faithfully served a family for sixty years is worth recording. Hiram Phillips, colored, was born in Goshen, N. Y, in 1916. and when a boy of IA was taken into the employ of Thomas and Benjamin Gale, twin brothers, who soon afterward removed to this city and were engaged in the wholesale grocery trade, living on Whitehall street, then fash ionable part of the town.
 They brought Phillips with them as their butler, and he served them till their death and then entered the service of the Misses Thorne. of No 127 West Fifteenth street, the nieces and heirs of the Gales. He never left their employ, going to the house early every morning and return ing at night to his home at No. 125 West Twenty-seventh street. He died from old age, and his mistresses deplore the loss of an old, honest and faithful ser want. He leaves a widow and a grown up family.-New York Tribune.

Individual EForts.

The following shows what single in. dividual can do for a charitable institu. ton by dint of hard work. A director of one of the largest hospitals of New York city secured, during the past five years, 667 new members, which added S6, ,670 to the annual income. He also induced 153 members who were paying $10 year to become patrons at $25 g year, thus increasing the yearly income S2,295. and he furthermore procured ninety new patrons at $25 per annum, equal S2,250. The grand total of increase of revenuewas thus S11 ,215-truly good showing for one mans energy, the more so as the field was not a fresh one, it having been gone over by number of solicitors for good many years before he began to put in his work.-Epoch.

A Land nf PaanhAa-

In the neighborhood of Sydney such fruits as the peach, nectarine, apricot, plum, fig, grape, cherry and orange are as plentiful as blackberries. If peach stone is thrown down in almost any part of Australia where there is little mois- ture tree will spring up which in few years will yield handsomely. A well known botanist used formerly to carry with him, during extensive travels, a bag of peach stones to plant in suitable places, and many wandering settler has blessed him since. Pigs were formerly often fed on peaches, as was done in Cal ifornia; it is only of late years that peaches have been utilized in both places by drying or otherwise preserving them. A basket load may be obtained in the Sydney markets, during the season, for few cents.-Exchange

She Felt Insulted.

 Pardon me, but it was purely mis. take"
 "Make out my bill and I will leave the house."
 "Yes, ma'am."
 This is only part of 6 spicy dialogue in which plain looking, impulsive woman and a hotel clerk were the characters. It was spoken at the Richelieu. After the vexed guest had left the office the clerk explained the cause of the trouble.
 "It's like this," he said. "When lady unaccompanied by male escort comes to a hotel she sends her name to the of flee by the bell boy. Then she is regis tered and given apartments. Now, this woman did not have a card at hand when she came in, and 1 put her name down just as l understood it from the lips of the boy.

The Musical Poodle.

A gentleman, who had retired from business, devoted himself, heart and soul, to the enjoyment of music. Every mem Der of the household was by degrees in volved more or less in the same occupa- tion, and even the housemaid could in time bear a part in a chorus. One in- dividual alone in the family seemed to have no taste for sweet sounds-this was small poodle; but the gentleman firmly resolved to make this animal bear some part or other in the concert, and by per severance he attained his object. Every time that false note escaped either from instrument or voice-as often as any blunder, of whatever kind, was com mitted by the members of this musical family, down came its masters cane on
 the back of. the unfortunate poodle, till she howled and growled again.
 The poodle perceived the meaning of these unkind chastisements, and instead of becoming sulky showed every dispo- sition to howl on the instant false note was uttered without waiting for the blow. By and by mere glance of her masters eye was sufnclenC 10 make the animal howl to admiration. In the end the poodle became so thoroughly ac- quainted with false notes that the slight est mistake of the kind was always sig nalized by 8 yell from her. Sometimes her master and his friends took pleasure in annoying the dog by emitting all sorts of harsh sounds from instrument and voice. On such occasions the creature lostall self command, her eyes shot forth fiery flashes and she sent forth long and frightful howls. But persons were obliged to be careful not to go too far, for when the dogs patience was very much tired she became altogether wild and would fly fiercely at the tormentors and their instruments.-NewY York Mail and Express.

Brazilian Hammocka.

The passenger capacity of the vessels on the Amazon river is not limited by the number of berths or state rooms, which are seldom or never used except by the few foreign travellers to dress in, but by the limit of hanging room for hammOcks on the deck of the vessel. Everybody of necessity must have a hammock, as the state rooms are unbear- able at night. Even in the hotels ham, mocks are more used than the beds. Some of them are very fine. Those made of maqueira grass, with feather lace trimmings, are considered the best. It takes from several months to year to make really good ones, and they bring anywhere from S1O0 to $500 each.-New York Ledger.

AbOut Rats.

A professional rat catcher estimates the number of rats in the United States st five for every man, woman and child in the country. For every child born there are twenty-eight rats, and each rat brought to its death costs the people an average of four cents. He says that if every person in the land should set out to hunt rats for month the number could not be reduced to less than 100, ,O00,, e00.-Detroit Free Press.

Confusing.

A minister who enjoys laugh as well as any one says that he was once invited to take tea with the family of new parishioner.
 Among the members of the household were quiet little lad of or years and amiddle aged, unmarried lady, whom the rest of the family addressed as Aunt Mattie."
 Just before supper was announced the little boy came into the parlor and said, in a shrill whisper, heard by all present:
 Aunt Ma-a-ttie, ma says she's goin' to set you by the pre-e-e-cher. Ain't that a good joke on you|-Youth's Companion.

IN ENo" AhcOiOsy hhu
 We no longer draw any sharp lines be- tween this world and the other world. We dismiss as a part of the dualism of the past, the notion of a ''long and dreary sleep" flesh resurrection, and a great gap between the dying and the ris- ing again. Life is continuous; life is one; and death makes no break in it. The | loss of an arm leaves the man un- changed; the other arm is lost, he is still unchanged; he falls, like John Carter, from tree, and dislocates his neck, and lives for twenty years with no power of motion save in his head; but he is still John Carter. Life goes on uninterrupted. The body drops into the grave and disin- tegrates altogether. Life still goes on uninterrupted. The dissolution of the whole body is no more than the dissolu- tion of any part of it.
 The dogma that all hope of repentance necessarily ends at the grave, we banish into the lumber room which holds the other fragments of an abandoned dual ism. As man goes out of our sight, such is he on the other side of the veil which hides him from us. It is by no accident that new theology men, while many of them refuse to accept the Andover hy- pothesis, everywhere, by an unconscious agreement, also refuse to accept the un- scriptural dogma of the decisive nature of this life's probation for every man; for that dogma belongs to that dualism which insists on breaking life into two discovered hemispheres, time and eter- nity, this world and the other world. We know of no such severance. We are now in eternity; this world and theother world are one.-Rev. Lyman Abbott in Forum.

Frightened or by a Parrot

A burglar, while ransacking house in Chicago, was greeted with Hello, therel' in sepulchral voice from the gloom of a recessed corner. He stood not upon the order of his going, but went at once. A pet parrot had worked in it's sole stock of English with admirable re- suits. The burglar dropped purloined overcoat in his haste to get away, but he subsequently, recovered from his scare sufficiently to enter two other houses, where he secured several overcoats and $40 in money.-Philadelp Ledger.

Raising Other Progeny.

A short time previous the same eagle raised small lamb. The eagles wings measured nearly eight feet from tip to tip.-Texas Siftings.
