The NIanutacture OF l.ararnn.

Parafin is one Of the most valuable
products Of petroleum, and its manufac-
ture has been brought to such perfection
that it is scarcely possible to improve
upon it. By the most approved processes
the wax is redistilled for the purpose
of reducing to the desired gravity and
crystallizing the wax. Then the oil is
frozen by processes similar to those en-
ployed for producing artificial ice. The
apparatus for this work is Of the most
complete and scientific construction.
Enormously powerful pumps force the
frozen oil into flter presses and convert
the wax into solid cake. The uses Of
parafhn are manifold, and every detail
of its manufacture is Of the greatest in
terest to all scientists.-New York

The Waltz II Africa.

The dancers seen at Kambuidi's were
Bisa and Luangeni. There were four
drummers and one old man with rattles,
who gave very picturesque perform
ance. The drummers had small, barrel
shaped drums, with tightened skin at
either end The drums were suspended
by rope from the left shoulder. The
dummers played to any crude, unframed
songs in splendid time, and while play
ing and singing danced about most
gracefully, some steps resembling close
" the waltz. All wore long loin cloths
of bark, reaching from the waist almost
to the ground. They were wonderfully
active, dancing and singing vigorously,
whirling round on one leg and spurring
the ground with the other foot They
sang, drummed and danced in perfect
time. The old man had two rattles,
each composed of five small, round,
dried wild fruits with noisy, rattling
seeds. These were threaded en- brochette
on thin sticks, one of which the old man
held in each hand and kept time with
the others, besides doing his share OF
the dancing. g.-From the Journals Of the

IL Mas For 1896.

EDITOR MANNING TIMEs.-In the local
column OF your issue of the 17th inst,
notice the following statement: "The net
profit of our local Dispensary since its
establishment is S2,llS54." This is an
error, the above amount is the net profit
for the year 1896 The Manning Dispen-
saty was opened the oath day of July, 1898.
During the months May, June and July,
in the year 1894. the Dispensary was closed
under an adverse decision of the State Su
preme Court. The following statement
will show the net profit for each year:
Net profit for five months in year 1898,
S1,163.12.
Net profit for nine months in year 1894,
s1.321 80.
Net profit for the year 1895, Sl,11735.
Net profit for the year 1896. S2.l1S 81
Total net profit siuce establishment to
December 3lst, 1896, S., 720.93.
It will be noticed that the net profit for
the year 1885 as compared with parts OF
year lS93-94 and the year 1896, is small. In
this year, the percentage was largely e.
duced in an attempt to discourage Illicit
dealers, which proved very effectual.
