To Drain q Sea-.

The royal commission, presided over
by NJ. Lely, Minister Of the Water
staat, which has long been studying
the scheme for the draining and recla-
nation of the Zuyder Zee, has con-
Guided its labors. Twenty-one men,
bers out Of the twenty-six composing
the commission rec mmended that the
projected work be carried out.
1t is proposed to reclaim from the
sea about 450, 1000 acres, the value Of
which is estimated at 326, 900, 900 gull
ders. The cost of this immense work
is computed at lS9, OOu. OO0 guilders, or,
with the accumulated expenditure, in
Guiding measures of defense and the
payment of compensation to the fisher
men of the Zee, at 3l5, 000, 900 grildcrs.
The drainage is to be carried out by
means of a sea dixie from Northern,
Holland into Friesland. The commits
sion is unanimous in recommending
that the work should be executed by
the state.-LondOn Times.

Denny's head fairly whirled around.
He had not expected over a few hun
dred dollars at best. Seeing mis-
amazement, the old merchant and
his clerks laughed heartily. They
advised him to have the money placed
on deposit and subject to his order at
one of the city banks; and this he
did.
l am glad to be able to add that
Denny has made very good use of his
suddenly.acquired money. In an
economical manner he first made his
family very comfortable at Bonavista
Bay, and then resolved to expend

the United States.

Far from the Maddm Crowd.

This il what many a nervous sufferer wishes
himself every day. But there will SION be no
necessity to forsake the busy-albeit some
what noisy-scenes of metropolitan life, if
the nervous invalid will begin, and persist in
the use of, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. which
will speedily bring relief to a weak and over
strung nervous system. Day by day the
body acquires vigor through the influence OF
this reliable tonic, and in the vitality which
it diffuses through the system the nerves con-
spicuously share. Sleep, appetite, digestion
all these are promoted by this popular in
vigoIant, and if they are, who can doubt that
the acquisition of health and nerve quietude
will be speedy and complete? Constipation,
biliousness, malaria. nausea, sea sickness,
and cramps in the stomach yield to this rem

The Paris correspondent of the

remarkable address by NJ. Berthelot

Der OF chemical product manufacture

After saying that he looked to
chemistry for deliverance from pres

sibility Of realizing the socialists
dreams, that is il a spiritual chemis-
try could be discovered to change
human nature as deeply as chemical
science could modify the globe, he
continued: "This change will be
greatly due to chemistry utilizing the
heat of the sun and the central heat
of the globe. The latter can be OBJ
tanned by shafts 3, 900 or 4, 600 meters

equal to the task of sinking. Then
the water down so deep would be hot

would furnish fluid free from mi

source of chemical and electrical
energy. This could be everywhere
developed, and thousands of years
might pass without any noticeable

This production is in principle re-
solved, and has been for forty years,
by the syntheses of grease and oils.
That of hydrates OF carbon is going
on, and that OF heterogeneous sub

can be cheaply obtained food can be
made from carbon taken from car
