the army, and in two sections, the
first containing rules for the cooks at
the posts and stations, and the second
for cooks in the field. The latter are
not hard and fast, of course, but sug-

actual experience in that line Of duty.

superior to the combined fleets Of the
two next powerful European navies,
not only as a safeguard of our own

as long as this is lost sight Of and
there is clear understanding that IT,

tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers,
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Rowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.

Expensive English Fruits.

The pineapple is by far the most ex--
pensive fruit grown in this country.
Each plant produces only a single
fruit and then dies, but the suckers be-
come bearing plants for subsequent
year. The fruit requires to be grown
in hothouses especially devoted to the
pineapple, success being best assured
by maintaining q minimum Of 60 de-
grees to 65 degrees of air warmth, and
75 degrees of bottom heat. High
prices are often paid for those out-of-
season dollhouse delicacies, which are
produced mostly during the winter
months. to vary the dinner table OF
wealthy epicures able to pay fancy
prices for them. Strawberries grown
in this way cost. shilling each, or 8

Worthing growers raised the price to.

frequently bring shillings s pence

Electric Suspension Railroad.

Among the technical novelties intro
duced in Germany. the new electric
suspension railroad between Leipsic
and Halle deserves mention. The sys-
tenn is a recent invention of Eugene
Langen Of Cologne. and it's distinctive
feature is the suspension Of the cars.
The only place where the new system
has so far been tested for short time
is on the special line between Cologne
and DeutZ, Il suburb, but there it has
been found eminently successful. BY
the new system the running time be-
tween Leipsic and Halle, twenty-five
miles, is to be reduced from thirty-tive
minutes, as at present. to fifteen or
twenty minutes. The Berlin munich
pal authorities are very anxious to see
this new line in operation, rs in the
event Of all the promises made being
carried out, 1t is the intention to build
several electric suspension roads for

The Eccentric Kaiser.

The German emperor has one very
singular popularity. He cannot bear
to have any one look at him when he
is saying his prayers in church. and
in order that the courtesy OF his sub
jects shall not disturb his religious de-
votions, he has issued the following
unparalleled ORDER:
"As soon as enter church every one
is on the qui viye to look at me, a
thing which annoys me extremely. I
therefore desi1e that all shall abstain
from this curiosity when go on Sun
day to hear divine service. Those who
desire to have a good view of me can
do so every day when take my walk
in the Thiergarten or drive in my car

MOUNTAINS IN THE SEA.
\ Cable Dctour Around = Range
SeVcnty-five Miles Long.

/ \ Cable Dctour Around = Range
Sevcnty-five Miles Long.
There exists in the great ocean
/ between Australia and New Gale
donna range of mighty subma-
rine mountains. whose limestone
tops rise within 300 fathoms of the
surface. The discovery of these
peaks. rising sheer 100 feet from
the bottom of the deep sea. was
made by the men who have just
finished laying the first section of
the rans-Pacific cable. Sir Aud
ley Coote. who was at the head of
the cable expedition. says:
The sea from Australia to New
Caledonia has been surveyed by Il
British and by an American yes
sci. The AlbatrOss went there
and did some very good work, but.
as il happened. both this eXpedi-
ton and the other missed the
strange feature of the ocean that
| can describe. We had anticipa-
ted no great difficulty in laying the
cable section. and did not find any
until suddenly the bottom of the
ocean began to rise. We were
forced TO cut the cable there in
mid-ocean and TO buoy up the
ends. 1t was then found that
what had hindered us was range
of submarine mountains.
There is nothing else like this
in the world that | know of. The
mountains rise in abrupt peaks.
and are hard limestone and gran
tie. BY careful measurement we
found that the peaks were more
than 1000 feet on the average. and
the highest of them 800 feet from
the bottom of the ocean. Less
than 300 fathOmS from the surface
of the water we found the tops of
the highest mountains. The
range extends for nearly seventy
five miles-that is, measuring
from the extreme nOrtherly to the
extreme sOutherly point. To lay
the cable around this range took
forty-eight miles more of cable
than we had counted on. We had
to go around the peaks as rail
