Limewater.

/ To make limewater you take some well
and newly burned limestone and pour wa
ter over it as long as the stone seems to alb
sorb it, and allow it to stand. # not break
ing down freely, sprinkle a little more wa
ter over it, A small quantity is best done
in a vessel, such as an old cask, SO that II
can be covered with board or bag. After
being slaked add about a pound OF 1t to
every 10 gallons of cold water, then stir and
allow to settle. -Philadelphia Times.

from all impure state of the blood. One Or

Maine at the Worlds Fair.

From the numerous letters that are re-
ceived at the Maine State building con-
corning the Sunday opening, it would
seem that the Maine people are not salts
fed with the present state of affairs.
Ministers and church deacons from all
parts of the state have written, request
ing that the doors be closed on Sunday.
Their wishes are followed so far as it is
practicable. AS General Mattocks, the
executive commissioner, resides in the
building, together with the necessary at
PENDANTS, the doors cannot be constantly
barred to visitors. They are closed to
the general public, and only people from
the state are admitted on that day. It
seems to be the spirit of the Maine COM
missiouers to observe the laws of the
state in Chicago the same as if they
were at home. No liquors of any kind
are offered inside the building. That is
also true of the other New England
States,

LIEUT.. .PEARY's TRIP.
The Visit to tho Arctic Regions VIII Oc-
cupy About Two Years,


Lieut.. Peary. speaking of his trip to
the Arctic regions, said Tuesday that he
expected that he. would arrive on the
west coast Of Greenland about the last
week in July. He says further: "My
headquarters will be on Whale Sound in
latitude II degrees 45 minutes north
The ship will land my party consisting
of about IL persons besides myself and
our supplies, and will leave us there. 1t
will then return, arriving in st. Johns
in September. We will stay in the
Arctic regions for about two years, and
the ship will return for us in the sum-
mer of 1895.
'While we are there we will try to
settle several geographical questions.
We expect to determine the limit of the
Archipelago, to fill up the gap on the
west coast of Greenland and to fix many
important boundaries. We will also
study the natives of the region and con-
duct much chronological investigation.
Glaciers will also form pant of our in
designations. We will take elaborate
magnetic and tidal observations. We
expect much that is valuable to result
from our. work.
