assayer picks out Unfortunately from
every 81 GOO one coin, which is placed in a
linen envelope, sealed with the assayers
seal. The envelope is marked with the
particulars of the mintage of the coin.
The envelope is placed in box. which is
not opened until the annual assay,
when it is opened in the presence Of the
commissioners appointed by the Presi-
dent to examine into the accuracy of the
mint work for the year.
This is, in brief, the process through
which all of the S55,000,000 will have to
go. The cost of minting them will be ~
cents each. 1t will cost the treasury de-
partment $685., 900 to do the work, and, as
/ have said, it will take about two years
to complete it. When all of the silver
bars have been conveyed into shining
dollars, these dollars will be put in sacks
holding 1000 coins each, these sacks in
boxes which will hold two sacks each;
and most of these boxes will find their
way to Washington, TO be stored in the
big vaults under the treasury building.

have promised and assured the president
that as soon as the sacrifice is made the

A Guadeloupe woman named st. Luce,

she is closeted with the president, Victor,

H1ppo1YrE A vooDoo PRIEST.
He Practices Rites as Horrible as
Those of Darkest Africa.
From the Hartford Times.

Hippolyte is said to be almost con-
stantly frustrating plots to upset him by
revolution. There are traitors in the rev.
dictionary camps, doubtless well paid.
Six aspirants to the throne (for in Hayti
it is practically a throne) are named-sIx
of them, including Manigat, the chief
one, refugees in Jamaica OF the three
who are still in Hayti without being be-
headed, the name of one is Terrisses
Simon Sam IL is said Hippolyte is a
yoodoo priest; and that ION the eve Of an
outbreak some prominent vOodOo wor-
shipper invariably dreams Of the events
that are about TO transpire. As Hip
polyte is a yoodoo priest, his anxiety aud
excitement may be imaged now that the
dream Is a fact accomplished"
In the horrible voodoo rites, performed
in secret at night, in some swamp, or
other lonely place, when the sacrifice of
child is demanded by those participating,
the mamaloi, a sort Of witch, is the
leader and ruler. The victim is called
"the kid without horns" The flesh Is de-
voured by the superstitious crowd. With
these explanations the following further
account given in Kingston, Jamaica,
letter 10 the New York World, may be of
interest:
He CHippolyte) and his mistress, Victor,
who was a cook at Aux Cape, are con-
tinually holding yoodoo seanccs at their
country seat, Mon Repose, at Birziton,
and the scenes Of debauchery and wick
edness attending them are almost beyond
belief. At one Of these meetings recently
the voodoo priest decided that in order TO
counteract the dream IL was necessary
that Hippolyte should make a sacrifice OF
a cabrit sans coone Ga boy child, literally
a hornless kid and a polette Can infant
girl). IT is an undoubted fact that good
deal of Hippolyte's power in the past
rested on the fact that he was papaloi,
or high priest, and that Victor was a
mamaloi, or priesUess.
Victor has been very busy in the pre-
parations for this great event, this cere-

SURE AS FATE,
Says Dr.. Hartman, Is Catching Cold at
This Season Of The Year.

Sooner or later it is the inevitable fate
of every one 10 catch cold. Care in avoid
ing exposure and the use OF proper cloth
ing Will protect from the frequency and
perhaps the severity of colds, but with
the greatest precautions they will come.
This is a settled fact Of human expert
ence. Especially is this true during the
stormy and unsettled weather of early
winter. Everybody must expect to be
caught somewhere or somehow. Perhaps
it will be wet feet, or cold draught, or
damp clothes, or maybe too close con-
hnement in hot rooms and then going
out in the cold carelessly, or it may be
one of a thousand other little mishapS,
but no one is shrewd enough to always
avoid the inevitable catching cold. Some
times colds come like an epidemic; every
body seems to have one at once. The
very air about us is poison to head,
throat and lungs. A cold will end in one
of three ways:
First, 1t may pass away without APP
pearing to do any harm, but will always
leave the system more liable TO disease
than before; second, 1t may end in chron-
ic catarrh, making life miserable and ex-
istence a bore ever after unless cured:
third, It may end in consumption, and
thus cause death. Now, these are the
bare facts which every person must face.
Is there anything that can be done about
it? Yes, there is.
There is no fact Of medical science bet
ter established than that a tablespoonful
of Pe-ru-na before each meal during the
winter season will absolutely protect
person from catching cold. Now, If this
is true (and there is no doubt of iO,
thousands Of lives would be saved, and
tens of thousands of cases of chronic
catarrh prevented, by this simple pre-
caution within the reach of every one.
After a cold has been contracted a tea
spoonful of Pe-ru-na every hour will
shortly cure it, leaving no trace of it be-
hind. After chronic catarrh has become
established, or the first stages Of con-
sumption have been reached, a table
spoonful Of Pe-ru-na before each meal
and at bedtime, gradually increased to
two tablespoonfuS at each dose should
be taken. 1t seems strange that as we'll
known and wel-established as these facts
are that any one should neglect to profit
by them, and yet no doubt there are
many who pay little or no attention TO
them, and go on catching cold, acquiring
chronic catarrh and consumption.

made by dissolving half pound of

for use.
The linen use for doy.eys that are to
have borders Of drawn work should be
very fine, or of linen cambria lawn. The
difficulty Of drawing the threads from
such linen IS much lessened if a piece Of
fine dry, white soap is rubbed carefully
over the space where it is desired TO do
the work.

If the farmer has contributed but little
himself 70 the number Of improved i'm
PIGMENTS. Others have given more atten-
ton 20 those required for use on the farm
than in any other branch Of industry.
There are more patents on farm imple-
me1ts than any other machinery, and
every year witnesses wonderful improve
ments. 1t is by the use Of the latest i'm
plements, which have cheapened labor on
the farm, to which lower prices Of farm
produce may be ascrbed but the profits
from farming have been increased pro-
portionately, considering the value Of the
labor bestowed on crops. compared with
methods in use half a century ago. 1t Is
now possible for the farmer to ride and
allow the teams TO do all the work Of
sowing or drilling the seed. blowing or
cultivating the soil, and harvesting the
crop. y boy can cut and bind a whole
field OF wheat in a day, where formerly
a small army of men were required to
perform the work and have it done at the
proper time.
Progress In the Use of Implements.
It is slow work introducing new i'm
plements Oh farms, and the former
methods have been displaced only by
force OF competition. There are hun
dreds OF farmers who have not yet ac-
cepted the improvements in implements.
just as they are with improved breeds Of
cattle. and they pace themselves at
great disadvantage with their more pro-
gressive nsighbors. The SOW farmer can
not compete with one who is quick 10
adopt the most improved appliances for
culture, and he, therefore, must neCeSSarl-
", sooner or later, be displaced alto
Eether The most costly item Of expense
on the farm is labor. and the markets are
regulated Largely by the costs Of all ar
tees If au implement can cheaper the
cost one-haf it arms the competitor of
the farmer with a weapon with which the
competitor can undersel him, or increase
his profits to a larger extent. As a rue.
al labOr-saving implements repay their
cost In a very short time by reducing other
expenses.
Profits Governed by Labor.
Whether the farmer is willing or not
to accept better implements, he will be
affected by their use. He cannot escape
them in any possible manner. Labor
is an essential. and when its cost is
greater than the prices Obtained the farm
Will not pay. Prices are fixed by the
cost on all farms combined. and the farm
er who is not enterprising viii have to
perform double labor in order 10 keep
pace with those who avail themselves of
opportunities for saving labor and cost.
There is but one remedy, and that IS TO
use the best implements and the best
stock. If prices are reduced they viii
then be offset by greater productions at
less cost, and the farmer will still have
large margins for profi- prOpOrtionately.
while the hand drudgery of the farm will
be greatly lightened. - Philadelphia
