The processes commonly resorted to for
imparting Il waterproof quality to cotton
cloth have proved only measurably success
full besides being somewhat complicated
and troublesome. The latest and most eff
fective method, as recently described, is
claimed to be free from the objections here
tofore encountered and consists mainly in
first drying the fabric thoroughly in a dry
heat and then spreading it lightly over a
smooth surface. With Il brush this is paint
ed over with n thin coat of boiled oil
which, after having become perfectly dry, is
treated to n second cont, and a third If nee
essary, plenty of time being allowed be
tween each for the effect Of the operation
on the fabric to become perfect. After tn,
last coat has been applied, if the surface re
mains sticky, "a mixture of one-fourth pound
of shellac to pint of water gently heated
until near the boiling point, adding to thi'
a small quantity of liquid ammonia, II
painted over the surface. For yellow wa
terproof yellow ochre is employed, and TO

The railroads in Japan are partly owned
by the government and partly by private
stockholders, but the rates and rules fol
the government roads govern the Others
also. At all the stations are overhead
bridges, aud crossing the track at grade is
prohibited as in England. The stations are
roomy and neat, the platforms ample, and
at both ends of the platform the name OF
the station is conspicuously posted. The
passenger shows his ticket on going through
the gate to his train and surrenders it al
the gate on leaving. No conductor en-
tiers the cars. We also miss the familiar
visits of the enterprising young man who
sells newspapers and popular books, anG
who loads our seats ut home with lozenges
photograph albums, comic periodicals, veg
etable ivory, matches, chewing gum and
other merchandise. What a pleasure /,

What the late Professor JOwett of Oxford
was least tolerant of was pretentiOusness
and shallow conceit. The reputation Tor
extreme latitudinarianism that the fame OF
his early trial for heresy had attached to
his name sometimes made foolish young
men seek to curry favor with him by eX-
travagant protestations of agnosticism,
One self satisfied undergraduate, who had
q thin smattering Of all the heather phi
losophes, and fancied like many of his age,
that he had made the original discovery
that all the worlds dolls were full of saw
dust, met the master in the QUAD one
day, and having entered into conversation
with him continued to pace up and down
by his side.
Master" he said after a pause, II have
searched everywhere in all philosophers,
ancient and modern, and nowhere do find
the evidence of "A God"
Mr.. -" replied the master after a
shorter pause than usual, 'if you don't find
a God by o'clock this afternoon, you must
leave this college"
If DR.. Jewett had really believed in the
young mans professions of "philosophiC
doubt as being anything but puppyish
brag, he would have spent hours Of valu.
able time in kindly and reasonable talk
with him.-NeT York Tribune.

DURING the year 1894 these

Germany, $40, 900, China S23o,-
900, Japan 1888, 900, Australia and
New Zealand $IS6, 900, Canada
Sis, 900. We find that for 1894,
the exports to the United
States reached $4,000, 900, China
1000, Japan $1,000, Aus
tralia and New Zealand 5000,
Canada $Io9, 900, Great Britain
and Germany, nothing. The total
of '/de with the United States was
sl3, 200, 600 or SO. SO per cent. The
next percentage is with Great
Britain 3.I4. China is LOO and
Japan las. From these figures it
is plain that erroneous conclusions
have been jumped at by some Of
our economists. There is nothing
very greatly out of proportion in
this data.

with the dress of the modern man. That
was soft aud yielding; the modern shirt,
collar, cuffs, hats, shoes, corsets, even the
wOmen's gowns, are hard and unbending.
The effect Of antique dress was grace; the
effect Of our dress is that Of stiffness and

You can't get a fresh crushed

Soda in the valleys either.
When you want a glass of Soda,

snap and vim in it, you don't go to
the valleys TO get it.
You know some firms lay undue

We would rather have the reputa-

would insure freshness, at least.
When soda is made right, favored
with fruit juices, there's lots OF
pleasure and good health in it. We
use fresh crushed fruits when in
season, and when the fresh fruit
cannot be procured, fruit juices.
Nor harm in any amount of our

yesterday in regard to the alleged bribery
of the city officials by officers of various
ice companies. 1t is said by attaches Of

wealthy ice men are likely to be indicted
with the aldermen. The grand jury also
took up the charges of bribery freely
made in connection with the passing Of
the Calumet and Blue Island railroad or

witnesses gave ample proof that bribery
was used, and that the names of several
aldermen who had accepted money were
given.
