All the supplies required by the

furnished from Washington. These
post offices require six tons of station
cry every working day. They consume
%, 900 pounds of jute wrapping twine
every week. This twine comes in balls
and. according to contract, each ball
has four inches of string sticking out
of its middle. Thus employees are in
duced to start unwrapping from that
end. Formerly they were as apt as not
to begin with the wrong extremity,
winding up with tangle, so that a
was wasted.
reams of MANILA paper blanks every
day. One of these is put on the out
side of every package of letters sent
out from post offices. bearing the name
of the sending post office, the date,
etc. Half million lead pencils are
consumed annually in Uncle Sam's
postal service, as well as 1900 quarts
of mucilage, 1,500 quarts of ink, 10000
pounds of rubber bands and $4,000
gross of pens. The pens alone cost
S., 900 every twelvemonth. For MAX
ing postmarIxs $4,000 ink pads and 3d.
600 pounds of stamping ink per an

are used every year for registered let

are an expense to the government of
$4,000 every year, 200 a week being
needed to replace those which are
worn out, broken or burned up with
post offices.

THE STING OF THE NETTLE.
Some OF the Poisonous Vegetable Mon
sters of Other Lands.

Some OF the Poisonous Vegetable Mon
sters of Other Lands.
The leaf and stem o. a nettle are
literally clothed with erect hollow
hairs If one of these hairs is viewed
under microscope it will be seen that
its free end, after tapering to a very
fine degree of s1imness, finishes as a
little knob, while in the other direc-
ton, after gradually becoming more
robust, it suddenly expands into large
bulb corresponding with the poison
gland of the adder.
The point of the hair, says Good
Words, is very brittle, and contact
with our skin causes the end to snap
off, leaving a hollow needle point
which readily pierces our cuticle, and,
pressing upon the bulb at the other
end, the poison is forced though the
central channel and infames our
blood. The tenderhanded who stroke
the nettle are stung for their pains,
because their gentleness has only
served to break the brittle points and
render them fit for piercing, but the
rough-handed break the hairs at their
thickest parts, where they are too
stout to prick.
Our common nettles, though they are
capable of inflicting considerable an
noyance upon many persons, are too
insignificant, nevertheless, to be in
cluded among vegetable monsters, and
we have only referred to them for the
sake of making clear the enormities of
some big cousins-giants of the nettle
family. These are, first, the Urtica
stimulans and Urtica crenulata of the
East Indies, species whose attack upon
one's hand is sufficient to cause the arm
to swell with most frightful pain,
which lasts for weeks. But even these
are mill1-and-water nettles by compar-
ison with the Urtica urentissiina, which
grows in Timor, where it bears the sig
nificant title of Daoun setan, or DEVILS
leaf. The effects of it's sting last for
year and have often produced death.
Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that
Contain Mercury,
AS mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the
the mucous surfaces. Such articles
should never be used except on pre-
scriptions from reputable physicians, as
the damage they will do is ten-fold to
the good you can possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-
tured by F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, o.,
contains no mercury, and is taken in :
ternally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. In
buying HALLS Catarrh Cure be sure you

claimed, looking over the swelling heather
covered hills: 80 must Palestine have
looked when shepherds watched their

The lecture was interspersed with va
rious Scottish and English ballads, read
with a fine accent that sounded quantity
foreign to our unaccustomed ears: but
by close attention, and after fervid read

gave sense to the grotesque language,

tale of foray or fairy land.
