How 1celanders Take snufr.

A popularity concerning the use of
snuff i'll Iceland may be of interest. The
snuff is made into bars after tho manner
of plug tobacco, and is sold in that shape
to the natives, nearly all of whom are
addicted to its uso and prefer it thus
prepared. The Icelander allows the nail
bn the right hand thumb to grow long
for the purpose, and when using the
snuff scratches it off the bar with this
nail On the back of the left hand and
applies it to the nose.

A New Eldorado.

The newest of western mining camps, the Cochiti camp, in New Mexico, lies near the ancient Indian village of that name on the west bank of the Rio Grande, southwest from Santa Fe. The mines lie in lodges which cross at right angles the walls of three can yons, the Cochiti, the Pino and the Peralta. Some of the ores already taken out there are very rich, and, if the claims as to their abundance are verified in the continued. working. Cochiti will prove one of the great Cold-bearing districts of the United States. At the mouth of the Pino, the central canyon of the three, the hum ming, brand-new town of Allerton is situated. Two smaller town sites, Kent City and Eagle, have been laid off, about six miles to the east and to the west, respectively. A few frame and more log houses are interspersed among the tents which constitute the greater part of the residence and busi- ness structures of the camp, in which about two thousand people abide. Saloons and gambling and dance houses are plentiful and busy, and even the ''old timer" with memories of Dead wood and Leadville, admits that the Cochiti has generally the symptoms of 6 booming camp.

Too GooI T. ,InI1c.

Lord Bowen, an English judge, was once tempted to sum up ironically. It was the ease of a burglar who had been caught, having entered from the roof and taken the precaution to leave his boots on top. His defense was that he was in the habit of taking midnight strolls on the roofs of houses, and that he was tempted by curiosity to have 8 look at one of the interiors Lord Bowen said, sarcastically: If, gentle men of the jury, you think it probable that the prisoner considered the roofs of the houses a salubrious place for an evening walk; if you suppose that the temptation to inspect the interior of the houses beneath him was the out come of natural and pardonable curi- osity, in that case, of course, you will acquit him, and regard him as a thoughtful and considerate man, who would naturally remove his boots be- fore entering the house, and take every precaution not to disturb his neighbors." To the judges amazement, the jury took him at his word and nc quilted the prisoner Lord Bowen never attempted to joke with jury again.

The Ex-ChancellOr Devo.ing 932, 900 a
 Year to the Liquidation Of Debts.
 Nobody in Germany has felt the evil effects of the agricultural depression more leenly than has Bismarck. To persons who have read of the magni6- cent presents given to Bismarck by the old emperor it has been surprise to learn recently that his estates are heavily mortgaged. His present from the old emperor after the Austro-Prus. sian war of 1866 was $500, 900, and with this sum he bought his palace at Var zin. After the Franco-Prussian war he received from the same hands the Saxon forest at Friedrichsruhe, valued at S750,000. He inherited the ancestral estate at Schoenhausen. On April 1, 1885, Bismarclz's seventieth birthday, his admirers throughout the world gave him that portion of the Schoen- hausen property which his father had been obliged to sell when times were hard. The money value of the gift was sone S400,0O0. Bismarck is also distiller, forester and the owner of a large brick yard. Despite all these ad- vantages, however, says writer in the Home Journal, he has found it inpossi- ble to lift the mortgages, amounting to about S750, GOO, which have incumbered his estates for many years. Of his gross income more than S32,OOO must be devoted every year to paying the in- terest on his debts. The burden is not agreeable to the old chancellor, and he has often remarked to his friends re- gently that his ambition to leave an unincumbercd property to his children would never be gratifled.

work;nr Borrs in Germonv.

The hours of the German laborer are very long. frequently exceeding fifteen hours day, but there are certain regu- lations in factories that are rigidly car ried out in regard to women's work. All factories where women are em- ployed are registered, and only eighty hours a year overwork is allowed. Children under thirteen cannot work in factories, although the law is often evaded by making them work at home. Strange as it seems, the state is more merciful to the children than the par ents; in, some villages children three years old arc kept busy threading needles. Thuringian watch-makers keep their children working from Sat urday noon until Sunday morning at two. After two hours sleep they must work again until church time.

New Use for Rubber.

Good results are obtained by using rubber in connection with an anchor rope in equalizing and relieving strain in dredging. and in measuring the depth and swiftness of currents For mcrly a severe strain was caused by a
 sudden jerking in pitching vessel.
 This is now overcome by what is called a rubber accumulator, which consists of seventy rubber discs or buffers on a middle rod, so arranged that by com pression they act as a spring. The bugers are cylindrical in shape, two and one-quarter inches in thickness, and separated from one another by metal discs one-eighth of an inch thick, and two inches larger in diameter than the rubbers, which on expansion do not overlap the metal surfaces. In this device it is found that a compres- sion can be had of five feet, which IS sufficient to distribute the strain along the entire length of the ship. The ap- plication is made by running the rope from reel located aft to the middle of the foremast, and then passing 1t through the rubber accumulation to the end of the anchoring boom, which is a spar thirty feet long. From this the rope with two hundred-pound weight attached is dropped vertically into the

DIR. r. p. Waring, health officer, is
sued a general statement of the re-
suit of the trial of the anti-toxine rem
edy for diphtheria in Kansas City.
His opinion briefly is that anti-toxine
is almost uniformly efficacious If used
when the disease first appears, or at
least before the blood poisoning sets
in. Out of thirty cases all but four
lived.
1t has long been pointed out by OK
perts that French newspapers and
books will, owing to the inferior
quality of paper on which they are
printed, literally turn to dust within
much less than century, SO that
public libraries bid fair to become
literary cemeteries. This is the rea-
son why the budget committee pro-
poses to le1se 100 copies Of the Journal

Deafness Can Not Re Curod

by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There Is
only one way to cure Deafness and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when 1t is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored TO its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous surfaces.

any case Of Deafness Caused by catarrhl
