ness, etc. In 1861 ! was attacked with bilious
muscular rheumatism, and have been a martyr to
it ever since. / tried all medicines / ever heard
of, and all the doctors in reach, but found only
temporary relief; the pains were so bad at times
that did not care whether / lived or died. My
digestion became so impaired that everything
ate disagreed with me. My wife also suffered 30
intensely with dyspepsia that her life was a bur
den to her; che would be confired to her bed for
week. at the time; che also suffered greatly from
eiddiness and loss of sleep. Some time in March

A New Way to Season Lumber.

A new process of seasoning lumber is
being developed and bids fair to become
an important industry to Canada, accord
ing to The Industrial World. Lumbcrmen
there have secured the control of a German
patent for the treatment of beech and
birch woods. By the new process the sap
is sweated out of the boards by placing
them, while in the green state, in steam
chambers for 12 days. They are then put
into the drying chamber for two or three
days, and by a chemical application the
wood is stained throughout a rich walnut.

Food AduIteraiion. Stock Watering.

The prevailing views as to the enormous
extent of the adulterstion of food, cof-
fee, spices, and other articles Of house
hold consumption, are fully confirmed by
extensive chemical Investigations and well
known facts. To swindle men, women and
children in what they necessarily eat and
drink is surely base and injurious in positive
degree. But the magnitude and abomina-
tion of this food adulteration are far less
than the proportions of the fraud and mis-
chief which have been and are being in
hcted on the American people by financial
fraud.
lines, gas-property, water-works, electric
appliances, beyond their cost and intrinsic
value is nothing less than deception and
gross fraud. Bonds or any other written
or printed documents, placed on the market
for public sale, should be the exact ex-
preston of the property which they claim
to represent. To palm off fictitious value
by dilution of water is in itself
transaction utterly without justification or
defence. II the property bonded proves to
be worth more than its cost, and increases
with time, let this be measured and ex-
pressed by the figures of the amount such
bonds or stocks reach above par in the
financial market, and not by an issue of an
increased amount of the securities.
1t goes without saying, that there may
have been some honest men who have had
to do with stock-watering and sugar trust
owning. They have thoughtlessly followed
what has been allowable in the financial
world, before the wrong and mischief had
been generally understood. 1t has ever
been thus with other great public evils. A
few years ago lotteries on large scale
were tolerated throughout the United States.
Respectable citizens engaged in selling
the tickets and thus aided in the gambling
wickedness. Even slave-trading and slave
holding were tolerated and made profitable
by persons of intelligence and standing.
1t may be said that railroads could not be
built and commercial enterprises pushed
forward without bond and stockwatering.
That was precisely the argument of the slave
holders. They said cotton raising would die
and the cotton spindles of the North cease
to hum, if slavery were destroyed. What
has happened in this country since 1861
attests the utter folly and falsehood of this
claim that robbery and enslavement are
necessary to financial success and to bust
ness prosperity. Neither by facts, reason
or analogy, can there be found any real
foundation for the claim that stock-water-
ing is necessary to industrial enterprise and
to the material development of the country.
On the contrary, it is the source of wide
spread and enormous evils. Then stamp it
out by the most prompt and effective meas
ures. The Sugar Trust abomination-the
$50, 900, 600 of non existing property, on
which the American people are compelled
to pay large dividends-shou'd be an object
lesson to open all eyes.

Lubec, says the Industrial Journal, is one

thriving town is also raised and marketed
thousands of bushels of potatoes. For miles

An Imperial Song-wri!er.


(Frcm the Baltimore American.)
Emperor William has an income which
is some what uncertain, but which at least
is four million dollars year and is prob
ably ten millions. This fact is important in
view of the song of bis which is published
in the American. We think we are safe in
saying that Emperor William makes better
wages as a sovereign than he could as q
song-writer, although the author of Sweet
Marie" is said to be getting something like
thousand dollars month in royalties.
