The Lime or Linden.

The lime or linden trees are natives
of Europe, the north of Asia and North
America. They are graceful, umbra-
geous trees. with deciduous, heart
shaped, serrated leaves, and cymes
or panicks of rather small yell
lowish flowers The wood ia light
and soft. but tough, dura BILE,
and particularly suited to carved
work. 1t is much used by turner's and
for making pill boxes. The charcoal
made of it is often used for tooth pow
der, for medicinal purposes, for crayon,
and for the manufacture of gunpowder.
The fibrous inner bark, called bast, is
employed for making a coarse kind of
robes, mats, we'll known as bast-mats,
and shoes much worn by the Russian
peasantry. The trees are cut when full
of sap in spring. For bust to be plait-
ed into shoes, young stems of about
three years old are preferred, and it is
said that two or three are required to
make 4 single pair of shoes The
leaves of the lime or linden are in some
countries used as food for cattle, but
COWS fed on them produce had butter.
The flowers have An agreeable odor,
and abound in honey, much sought
after by bees. The seeds abound in a
fixed. sweet oil. The American lime,
commonly called Eastwood in America.

species 1t grows abundantly on the

Mr.. Cochran then said his republican
colleague from New York (Mr. Payne)
had told the members of the committee
that the Wilson bill was unpopular
with the people throughout the coun-
try; that men could walk through any
city in New York and see the evidence
OF It's appropriately at any corner. An
untried policy, Mr.. Cochran said, was
likely to be looked upon somewhat du-
biously, but he had found no such evil
dence of unpopularity. He believed that
it was a question which would grow in
popularity as its provisions became
known and understood. while he knew
that the Mckinley policy would have
but an ephemeral existence and was
only passing policy. Mr.. Cochran
continued:
"As he chairman of the committee on ways
and means. the gentleman from West Virginia
(Mr. WILSON, has stood here in the house and
launched the tariff bill on its successful voyage;
as he stood here and withstood the angry pro-
tests Of some men in his own state some of
whom added threats to remonstranceS, GER

THE Wilson bill is step in the direction of
economic reform and the commercial freedom
of the country. Let US pass this bill and
promise you that 1t will take more than six
months of hard times to put soup kitchens in
every city. Mr.. Wilson told US, in words that
will last long after he has disappeared from
this scene of his activity. which he has done SO
much TO adorn: he has told that the pros

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
thediseased portion of theear There is only
one way to cure Deafness, and that is by con
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition Of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inHa1ned condition of the mucous sur
faces.

Weight of the Atmosphere.

Somebody has made the calculation
that, taking the quantities roughly
and in round numbers, the atmosphere
weighs about a ton to every square
foot of the earth's surface, $4,000, 900
tons per square mile, or 5000, 00o, 0o0,-
600, 900 ton to total of 200, 900, 600
square miles;and its energy is that due
to the motion of this conceivable
mass, at velocities varying all the way
from the slightest zephyr to the hurri-
cane and the cyclone rushing oyer the
prairie or along the surface of the sea
at more than 100 miles an hour. Again.
according to this authority, a cubic
mile of air, weighing about 10000
600, 900 pounds, develops, at the rate OF
motion as the cyclone, some 1900, oOO.-
900, 900 ''foot tons of energy. and if all
were employed at such rate for the
performance of work, useful or de-
structive, this number of foot pounds
would be equivalent to more than D.

FRUIT STORAGE HOUSE.

Just as Necessary to Success as = Well
Kept Orchard.
On very few farms, even where fruit
is made one Of the leading products of
the soil, are suitable accommodations
provided for the convenient and most
economical handling and storing of
fruit. A building entirely devoted to
grain is a very common sight, and this.
too, where grain is not made the most inn
portant crop upon the farm. There would
appear to be no reason why fruit should
not have a place provided for its &C
commodation as well as grain. especial
ly as fruit requires more exact condi-
tions as to temperature and moisture.

Poultry for the Occhar I'd.

The Iowa Homestead has decideu
that it pays to keep poultry among
small fruits, but only when sufficient
skilled work is expended on the care Of
early matches, SO that they can be
brought up to two-pound weight
with very little expense of hand feed
ing, with the range feed they get. AS
an insecticide they are a success. 1t is
probable that the larger or Asiatic
bceeds are the best among small fruits,
Us the smaller breeds are such rustlers
that they not only destroy insects but
too much fruit as we'll. But in case
poultry is used as an adjunct to orchard
ing it would be better for them to get
over a large territory.

LAST EDITION
FROM JAP AN.
Rumor that China Has
Bought the ChiIian Navy.

VANCOUVER, B. C., Sept. 27.--The En-
press OF India brings the following ad-
vices from Japan:
Count Yanagawara Sakimitsu Count
Noble OF Kyoto), privy councillor, is dead
after protracted illness. The deceased
rendered distinguished service at the time
OF the restoration, for the Emperor, who
sent him to China to negotiate treaty.
Notification has been issued from Pekin
forbidding the importation of japanese
goods. In consequence prices have been
abnormally changed. Eight Japanese
cooks employed on French cruiser,
and who landed recently at Che Foo, were
Immediately seized by Chinese soldiers
and killed. The rumor that the Chinese
have purchased the Gillian navy is again
revived in Yokohama. This time il Is
stated the purchase includes two new
cruisers built by Armstrong and
they are expected shortly. A Japanese
paper says that the British Government
has ordered an admiral to watch
closely the movement OF the Japanese
during the war, and in pursuance
of that instruction some British war
ships always follow the japanese feet and
bring tidings to the fagships once or
twice each day.
The japanese press condemns this ac-
tion, claiming Great Britain Is showing
partiality to China. A japanese spy, dis
guised as Chinaman, has been found in
the house of the nephew of the viceroy and
commander Of the arsenal at Port Arthur.
The man was Immediately arrested and is
considered an important capture, as
the Chinese think now they have found
how the japanese possessed such accurate
knowledge of their plans.
Inhuman bar barism marks the course
OF the Chinese army. The Chinese Tao Ia
OF Formosa offered prize
for Japanese heads. Coreans
have been enlisted, and three Japanese
heads transfixed on spears are reposted to
grace the walls Of Pyong Yang, and the
heads of their foes were nailed to the
gates OF Whang JUDY Chinese.
The North China Daily News also says
that Chinese soldiers at several camps
have been threatening missionaries will
insults, and trouble may ensue very
shortly.
The Tonne Hsx, powerful sect OF re-
ligious Corean rebels, have attacked the
japanese troops at Taiku, Southern Corea.
Reinforcements have been sent to Japan
from Seoul.

Whatever industry it quickens lies beyond

Referring to the silver policy OF the
Democrats, Governor Mckinley said /:
"Having disposed of the 'Repu ublcan
makeshift' as they denominsted the
Sherman law, they were to give silver an
honorable place in the coinage of the
country. Nothing has been heard of this
since. Nothing will be heard of
it in the present Congress.
Nothing can come of il so long as Mr..
Cleveland is President of the United
States, for il is well understood he will
veto the free coinage bill. Yet, the Ohio
Democratic Convention went through the
idle ceremony OF declaring for the free

opposition from 359 delegates) knowing
that il meant nothing and could mean
nothing.
Senator Brice atIthe head of the Ohio
Democracy, himself in attendance, was
quick to denounce that plank in the plat
form after he had crossed the Ohio line,
and announces that he is not bound by 1t
unless he can be permitted to construe it
as he peases. 1t is mere pretence.
"It Is an attempt TO raise false issues. 1t
Is another effort at deception. The era
when Democratic promises avail is day
gone by. The period of their fulfillment
Is at hand. The Democratic Congress can
no longer offer the excuse that the Re-
publicans stand in the way. Nothing can
stand in the way Of the Democrats exc
cutting the will of that party.
"But free and unlimited coinage OF silver
is not the crystslized will of the Demo-
cratic party and it will not be. The party
that has struck silver down and given it
the severest blow it ever had cannot be
relied upon 10 give that metal honorable
treatment"
