Facts About GIycerin.

Glycerin is one of the most useful aud
misunderstood Of everyday assistants. It
must not be applied to the skin undi-
iuted or it viii cause it to become red
and hard, but if rubbed well into the
skin while wet it has softening and
whitening effect. 1t will prevent and
cure chapped hands; two or three drops
will often stop the baby's stomach acae.
It will allay the thirst Of fever patient
and sooshe an irritable cough by moist

the face after shaving makes man rise

great preservative of the leather and ef-
fectually keeps out water and prevents

A Prince visits q Workhonsa.

A manifestation of human sympathy
which is not without it's significance and
value just now was the visit paid the
other day by the Prince of Wales to the
Lambeth (London) Workhouse. 1t was
not the formal and perfunctory affair
which such visits usually are, and no
warning was given of his coming until
few minutes before his arrival. The
master OF the workhouse said to-day
about the incident: "Almost the first re-
mark he made after stepping out OF his
brougham was: Mind, nov, no one
knows that am making this visit, in
timating that it was no formal visit, with
everything beforehand in apple pie or
der. He was here over two hours, and
made complete examination OF tue
whole establishment. Visiting first the
dining rooms, he passed on to the living
rooms, sleeping rooms, children's rooms,
infrmary and so on, throughout the
building, making all the while the most
searching inquiries in references to the
arrangements, regulations, etc. In fact,
the questions he put astonished me.

of the tobacco provided. Mr.. Hedley
asked him whether ne considered this
expenditure justiiable. | think perhaps

or interest him mere tnau the sight of
the aged inmates enjoying their beer and

How to Opea a Book.

William Matthews, 10 ssModern ,ol1-
binding" gives this advice on how to
open BOOK: ssHold the book with its
back on smooth or covered table; let
the front board down. then the other,
holding the leaves in one hand while
you open a few leaves at the back, then
a few at the front, aud so on, alternately
opening back and front, gently pressing
open the sections till you reach the
center OF the volume. Do this two OF
three times ana you will ootaiu the best
results. Open the volume violently or
carelessly in any one place and you will
likely break the back and cause start
in the leaves"

Central Sugar and Starch Factory
Combined.
Editor Florida AgricuIturist:

Editor Florida AericuIturist:
In your issue of the 18th inst. you have
an editorial on beets, suggesting exper-
iments and the possibility of factories,
etc. Numerous experiments have been
made in every State in the Union on this
plant and the results plainly show, thus
far, that beets are not a success in the
South as we'll as great many Northern
States. Its line of successful cultivation
has been clearly marked out, and includes
all OF our States bordering on the British
possessions. Our Southern plants either
contain too much water or are too large
to yield a profitable amount of sugar,
but are first-class for stock feeding
If it was your idea to establish new
industry and not particularly that of the
beet, | would suggest starch, sugar and
syrup combined as the most profitable
and most certain Of anything that |
could mention. The most expensive
part of a sugar plantation is the factory,
and if it could be utilized all the year
instead of three months, as is now done,
it would constantly yield profit, rather
than be a loss for nine months.
A diffusion sugar house of small
capacity could certainly get enough
cane from farmers in neighborhoOd to
run three or four months, and casSava
and sorghum to work the rest Of the
year. A diffusion factory would be as
well adapted to starch making as sugar
or syrup, and one need not stop at these
products, for it would be as easy to make
rum, alcohol, tapioca, glucose and flour.
With such a range of products one could
command the market with perfect ease,
manufacturing such as produced the
highest price at different times.
Sugar cane might almost be called
native of Florida and cassava is.Sorghum
grows we'll on any sort of land, yielding
best on the best cane land. What State
can give as much to one single factory
and yield so many products?
