If successful process for obtaining electr-
cal power directly from coal without the
intervention Of furnace, boiler or dynamo
has not been discovered, it seems only a
matter Of a short time when it will be. A
man in New York claims to have solved the
problem. Edison has been at work on the
same thing 10 years, Finally DR., Jacques, of
Boston, is certain he has found the way TO get
a current Of any needed power from carbon
and washing soda DR.. Jacques process is
simple He puts the lump Of caustic soda
into an iron pot. He heats the pot to a
temperature of 300 degrees. The soda melts
and forms what experts call an electrolyte,
He thrusts a stick of carbon into the soda
nextan iron tube ditto Through the iron
pipe he forces by means Of a pump stream Of
oxygen. The oxygen bubbles up through the
soda, aud some Of it comes in contact with
the stick Of carbon as it bubbles. That pro-
duues the electricity. Connect the carbon

Honolulu, Hawaii, on May 10, from pneu-

a WRITER in the "Fortnghtly Review
describes the condition Of the 10000
British farmers as almost desperate, The
thriving herds have disappeared, cottages
and country mansions are closed while
rural laborers, Aocking into the towns, further
swell the ranks Of the unemployed" As a
contrast, there exists in England, according
to this writer "an appalling commercial
wealth. whose vast accumulations are in
vested with difficulty. The British farmers
demand protection, but their number is com
paratiyely small, and there is little prospect
that what they ask will be granted. But no
nation can see its agriculture going to ruin
without sense Of anxiety and this is
clearly the situation in free-trade Great
Britain at the present time.

THE professional politicians and their
friends-especally in times like these-are
profuse in their praises of the press. The
Hazleton Plain Speaker is after the dead
beat politicians with big stick. 1t says :
Here and there occasionally the incumbent
who is never satisfied is heard TO pass re-
mark concerning the party paper which in
the heat Of battle is his salvation and which
when all is over is not worthy Of his attention,
not even to the extent of a subscription. In
former campaigns, when proprietors knew
too well the significance Of promise, it was
considered no breach to be included in the
category Of the party but as the value oi
some promises has been learned and as the
methods of matchmaking adopts are exposed
through desertion in the time Of need, it re
quIres az this day the honestly earned casl
in advance, in part payment for what will bI
said, No one has been found yet who wa
able TO live ON promises and 10 that news
papers are no exceptions" There are som,
Schuyllill oiiice-holders that might be casseC
in the same category, and who are again
anxious for a denomination.

story Of lis merit.
The thousands of people whom It has
raised from disease and despair to happi-
ness and health, are the strongest and

has. No other preparation in existence
has such a record Of wonderful cures.
This is why Hoods Sarsaparilla has the

Now il you need a good medicine, why
not try that which has done others So
much good. Remember
