The seven wonders.

The question is often asked what
were the seven wonders of the world?
The seven wonders of the world were
several remarkable objects of ancient
times. First, the pyramids of Egypt;
second, the Pharos, or watch tower at
Alexandria, Egypt, built by order of
Philadelphus, about $50 B. c., being
built of white marble. and visible at a
distance of 100 miles; third, the walls
and hanging gardens of Babylon; fourth
the temple of Diana at Ephesus, sup
posed to have been two hundred years
In building; fifth, the statue at Olym-
pia, in Ellis, sculptured in ivory and
gold by Phidas, the most eminent of
the ancients; sixth, the tomb built for
Mausolus, king of Caria, by Artemesis,
his queen; seventh, the colossus at
Rhodes, brazen statute of Apollo,
seventy cubits high.

President Cleveland is very coy for a

duced to declare his intentions. Buff

Various recent rumors seem to indi-
cate that President Cleveland wrote a

then lost it. New York Press.
President Cleveland is firmly OF the
opinion that the American people do
not take sufficient interest in the play

Mr.. Cleveland may be great sports

The biggest Fool at Large

Is the individual who persistently neglects
his health, and the means of preserving and
restoring it. Many persons who are not con-
stitutional idiots do this. They are genuine
objects of compassion as well as censure. a
failure ofappetite, loss of flesh and sleep i'm :
paired digestion, an uncertain state OF the
bowels and symptoms of biIliousness are so
many warnings of the apprt ach of disease.
To disregard them is abject folly, which Oh
Tended nature in due time Furnishes severely
If not fatally. That genial and thoroughly
reliable preventative of bodily mischief in
the shape of chronic disease, Hostetter's
Stomach Ritters, will, II resorted to in time,
avert those disorders, 10 the removal ofwbich
it is fully adequate. Among these are chron-
ic Indigestion, liver complaint, kidney troub-
les constipation, nervousness, rheumatism
and malaria.

weighing a Pencil Mark.

A signature containing nine letters
has been weighed and proved to be two
milligrammes or the fifteen thousand
five hundredth part of an ounce troy.
Mechanical instruments of marvellous
delicacy are now so nicely adjusted that
there are scales which will do this and
even weigh an eye lash. Mr.. Edison's
tasimeter, which, in different forms,
measures degrees of heat and moisture,
will show sensible DETECTION at the
one millionth of degree of Fahren-
heit, and will accurately register the
heat of the body of a person standing
eight feet away. When adjusted to
measure moisture the needle in the in
strument was detected IL degrees by a
drop of water held on the finger five in
ches away.

Silver In Mexico.

We commend the following from the
Mexican Herald to all those wise asses
who are sure that if by any inspiration
the people Of the United States have
the sense to restore the half of the
money which has been discarded, they
will be lost. The Herald says:
"Many ardent free silver journals in
the west of the United states are quot.
ing the Mexican Herald in. behalf of
their cause. They are perfectly well
come to draw from our armory any
weapon they may choose to select and
to use it with what skill and vigor they
possess. But it must be borne in mind
that this journal is, above all things,
not endeavoring to aid the cause of
free silver coinage in the United States
1t might be good thing for that great
country, but most assuredly it would
be a bad thing for Mexico. Silver
monometalism is making Mexico strong
and wealthy, it is building up local in
dustries, 1t is rendering us self-reliant,
and emancipating us from financial and
