present requirement for building

large, but the daily papers OF the
several cities OF the state report the
issue OF a number Of building per-
mits, which indicate that the sea-
son of improvements is opening up
quite flstteringly, aid there is a
general belief that it will continue
active. The railroads are not buy.
ing very largely, and there is con-
sequently a dearth OF timber bills,
except for export. In this line
there is a good demand, many bills
having been submitted upon which
exporters refused to quote. Some
few export orders have been &C.
copied within the past week, how
ever, and the mills now have as
much OF this class OF business as
they can promptly handle.
There is a reasonably good de-
msnd for shingles at quotations.
The stock at this point is not &C.
cumulsting very fast, shipments
being about equal to the manufsc-
ture.

the wires were tapped outside Of
New Orleans.
LOCAL. Loss LIGHT.
The loss Of the local turf ex-
change is about 5000 on yester-
days New Orleans races. About
$50 were bet on "Plug" here. 1t is be-
lieved that no one but an expert
could have tapped the wires so
successfully, and that two men
were required to do the work. The
wires were doubtless tapped at
some point between New Orleans
and the race track. The total loss
sustained by the exchanges
throughout the country is esti-
mated to be in the neighborhood
of $4,000.

THE LATEST SEMITIC KNOWL.
EDGE ON FOOD AND DIGESTION.

The real cause of most of our diseases is
simply an inability to digest food. This induces
thinness. weakness. loss of flesh and fat, loss
of vitality, Wasting away.
Loss of flesh and vitality means constan
liability to sickness. Wasting away is con-
sumption.
EIf getting thin is what fails you there is only
one thing to do--get fat. The only way to do
t is to take something which will help your
stomach and stimulate it to do its work.
If YOU are tired out you do not like to move
your legs or arms. If your stomach is
tired it does not like to digest; 1t cannot dc its
work
To eat, or even to eat with a relish does not
necessarily mean that one is being nourished
Strength, vitality and flesh are the true indi-
cations.
Getting thin is a sign that you need the
Shakers Digestive Cordial. You would not be
getting thin if you could dgestyour food.
The Shakers Digestive Cordial not only
contains ariifelally digested food, BUTT will
digest other foods in the stomach.

notft is going to meet the conditions of your

TESTED BY A STAR.
Old-Time Calculations for Measuring Dis
tances and Correcting Time.

(From the Detroit Free Press.)
Some very old printing that was
brought to light the other day contains
curious suggestions for making certain
calculations that will interest many
people. One of the suggestions runs to
the effect that person may ascertain
his rate of walking by the aid OF string
with piece of lead at one end Of i t.
The string should be knotted at distances
of.44 feet, which distance Is the 12Oth
part of an English mile and bears the
same proportion to a mile that half a
minute bears TO an hour. If the traveller
when going at his usual gait drops the
lead. letting the string slip through his
hand, the number of knots which have
passed in half a. minute indicate the
number of inches he walks in an hour.
An easy method Of correctly regulating
time piece by the stars is suggested as
follows: *
AS the motion of the earth with regard
to the fixed stars Chose that iwinkle) is
uniform, tiinepisees caniin most simple
manner be correctly regulated by the
stars with greater facility than by the
sun. Choose south window from which
any fixed point, such as chimney, side
of building, etc., may be seen. To the
side of the window attach piece OF card
board having small hole in ID in such
manner that Ivy looking Though the
h0Ia To Efho odd Df thn oIo
object some fixed star may be seen.
Tho progress of the star must be
watched and the instant it vanishes be-
hind the fixed point the observer muse
note the exact time 1t disappears. The
following night the same star will van
ish behind the same object three minutes
aud hfty-six seconds sooner. II a time
piece mark 9 O'Clock when the star van
ishes one night the following night 1t
will indicate three minutes and fifty
six seconds less than 9. II the timepieo e
be faster oraslower than the Indication OF
the star, then. 1T has, gained or lost the
indicated difference. If several cloudy
nights follow the first observation of the
star, 1T is only necessary to multiply
three minutes f1fty-six seconds by the
mum Der OF days that have elapsed since
the observation, and the product deduct-
| ed from the hour the clock indicates the
first night clear enough for the second
observation gives the--time Ethe oIook OF
watch ought to show. The Same star can
only be observed during a few weeks.
for as it gains nearly an hour In q fort.
night,sit will in shortsstim come to the
meridian In broad daylight and become
invisible.
In making the observation care must
be taken that planet is not chosen in
stead OF a star. Additional to the fact
that the light Of fixed stars twinkle.
while that of planets Is steady refieoted'
sure means Of distinguishing between
them Is to first watch certain star at.
tentively for few nights. II it changes
it's place with regard to the other stars il
is planet, since the fixed stars appear to
maintain the Same relative positions
