Oil Stoves.
In the last two months that
we have been hand Z
ling these stoves we
have placed nearly
ten in all and in no -
one case has there been room
for complaint of any nature,
but in many cases it has been
just the reverse. People have
taken the pains to come to the
store and compliment us on
the working of the stove and
the simple mechanism; says
= that it is so simple
that a child could
operate it. Others
Il say: "Don't be afraid
to talk the stove, or give it
your personal guarantee; the
stove is all right"
We have this wonderful
stove in two sizes; the three
burner, with oven, for $40 SO
and the four burner, complete
for $25. A point that is well
to remember is that it requires
no special fuel to
cook with nothing
but the same kero-
sene local oily as II
you use in your lamps.
The wick raiser is automa
tic in its operation and is an
important feature as the raiser
allows the wick to be turned
just so far and and no further
thus ensuring a strong, full,
blue fame from start to finish.
We will be pleased to show
the stove in operation to any
who will call at our store.

the physical properties of gold, the
name argentaurum has been given. In
outward appearance this argentaurum
is exactly like gold. During the process
of transmutation there Is loss of %
per cent. in weight but, even allowing
for this loss, there should be consider
able profit in the transactiOn-that Is,
if argentaurum Is really as valuable as
the syndicate claims.
On this point H. de Parville FreOch
writer. says: Every one knows that
the molecular constitution of body is
considerably modified by division; its
color, its density, it's physical proper
ties are changed. Such has doubtless
been the result in the present instance.
In order however, to achieve a genuine
transmutatiOn, a real physical and
chemical change, the molecules, the
atomic equilibrium of the metal, must
be modified and the entire structure
must be wholly transformed. Has this
been done in these latest experiments?
Apparently not, since argentaurum
seems to be nothing but a metal which
has been physically derived from sill
yer. Do not let us go 50 fast. When
any one shows us a piece of gold which
has been transmitted from another
metal, and which is unassailable and
chemically fiawless. then, and not till

INDUSTRIAL JAPAN.
Extending Its Mechanical PrOduc.
tiOns and Textile Trades.

From the Chautauquan.
In no line of industry has the revolu.
tiOn been more remarkable than in tex
tiles. The opening of Japan to the
world corresponded in time to the high
est development in the West of me-
chanical principles and motive power.
The thousands of bright young men
from the once hermit country who Wis.,
tied our factories discerned at once
their opportunity. A spinning
machine seemed to them almost hu-
man. Realizing their own tremendous
resources III the form of cheap labor,
they saw that if union We're effected
between that and the new wonders of
the West they could, because of their
very nearness to the largest cotton
plantations of the world, begin at once
to drive out British imports. They
were somewhat tired of paying for
high-priced cotton goods made in Man.
chester. The costly British freight and
packing would be saved, and the alb
ominable adulteratiOn bv means OF
Sizing" would be avoided.
So about 1880 the experiment of sub
stituting steam for human muscle was
tried. In 1882 they had only 1,5OO spin
dies running, including those controlled
by the government, and the total pro-
ductiOn of the cotton yarn for the
year was but 10000 pounds. Within one
decade the product increased to over
sO,OOO,OOO pounds. English goods were
driven from the market of Japan!
Then the Japanese began to look
aboard and dream of capturing the
markets of Asia. In 1894 they had forty
mills. operating twenty-five hours out
of the twenty-fOur daily during 292
days of the year and turning out 1922
100000 pounds of yarn. With their he
reditary taste and skill the cotton yarn
has been made up into fabrics as deli
cate. beautiful and enduring as one
could wish for the wonderfully low
prices at which they are sold. they
are in general free from the sizing
for which English goods have q bad
reputation. They have won their way
in Korea, in China, in Siam and even
in India and Australia. AS for the silk
fabrics, they are already being offered
in America and Europe Mt prices that
surprise and alarm manufacturers and
merchants.
This wonderful development in the
textile industry has actually made the
United States once the largest buyer
and the smallest seller i'm japan, the
chief trader with this new industrial
power In the Orient. Whereas the Uni
ted states used formerly to expert only
little kerosene. flour and machinery,
our people sold to Japan during the first
six months of 1895 over 100, ,OO0, 600 pounds
of raw Gotten. The sale Of American
iron Is also steadily increasing.

cordingly, very superior class of men
are employed in the business.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Some Stories About His Great Love
for Children.

OF all the presidents of the United
States none have loved children and
thoroughly enjoyed their fun more than
did Abraham Lincoln. If was well that
he was in sympathy with the tricks or
boys and girls, for he had two boys,
Willie and Tad, who were famous for
their pranks and many stories are
told of the things they did.
once during a large reception at the
White House. when Tad's father was
president, the boy erected a lemonade
stand in the hall leading to the east

ironing board stretched across them.

laughed over this.
Often when Mr. Lincoln was busy
with some great problem pertaining to
the nations welfare. word would come
that some one wished to speak with
the president of the United States on
important business. 1t would be Tad
or Willie who confided to their faith
er, with great joy. the fact that the
cat had kittens or that there were some
new punies The. president always
smiled over these things and although
he probably sometimes corrected his
small boys, yet he never seemed to lose
his patience With them.
One Sunday morning when Mr.. Lin
coin lived in Springfield. he was seen
coming away from church with Tad
slung over his left arm. Some one,
knowing that the sermon could not

matter. Oh replied Mr.. Lincoln. II
