it gives vigor and vitality even in try

weakness and WEAKNESS, lack of energy
and ambition, and that tired feeling.

scheme is on foot to supersede
large number of the London omnibuses
by electric vehicles. 1t is said that
the electric omnibus is to surpass in
comfort and spaciousness anything OF
the kind hitherto constructed. More
over, the service will be quicker, and
the Punishment of the horse will make
the roads cleaner and less unhealthful,
more particularly as nearly all the
main thoroughfares in London are
paved with wood. The motor car is to
be leading factor in another great
enterprise. The grip of Liverpool on
the shipping trade has been so loos-
ened by the competition of Manchester
that the ship owners and the merchants
OF the city have become alive to the
necessity of taking measures to retain
their trade. They propose to introduce
motor cars. each of which shall be ca
pable of drawing three wagons, car
rying ten tons of produce. The wagons
are to be loaded at the ships side, and
the special advantages Of their use will
be that goods can in this way be con-
veyed without transfer to other We
hlcles direct to the warehouse, wher-
ever 1t may be situated. The
ordinary highways will be utilized for
this purpose and no rails need be laid.
1t is expected that by this means the
cost of conveying merchandise to and
from Manchester and other towns will
be reduced to a point with which the
ship canal cannot compete, and the
further expectation is that the railway
companies will be compelled in self
defense to lower their rates, which
again will tell against the ship canal
1t is believed that fully loaded train

Skunk OIL.

An Iowa expert gives the following
information concerning the origin of
skunk oil: LAS live in district where
the skunk is only too we'll known, per-
haps may be able to answer your cor
respondents question about the origin
of skunk oil, commonly sold in the drug
stores around us as a remedy for rheu-
matism. Skunks lie in their holes dur
ing the winter, never appearing above
ground excepting on very fine DAYS.
Before retiring under ground they be-
come we'll loaded with fat. When
killed, by drowning them by filling IN
their holes with water, they are dug
out without producing any offensive
odor. The sting bag is removed. the
skin is secured, and then the fat is
taken out and treated just as the fat
of hog is treated in making lard. The
preparation of skunk oil is q profitable
industry during the winter months. A
German family near my residence does
a considerable business in its prepara.
ton every year."

Expelled But
Not DiSeraced


The boys of Freshfeld school, at
which Frank Leicester had been but q
few weeks, hardly knew what to make
Of that young gentleman. Born and
reared in Texas, he had all the charac-
teristics of the typical American boy,
though his parents were English.
Dying within a few weeks of each
other, they had left him to the care OF
his relatives in the old country, who
placed him under Doctor Pollock TO
have him fitted for English CONNER
cial life.
He apparently neither knew nor
cared anything about cricket or fives;
but at running and swimming he had
proved himself equal to the best; and
he was already looked to for ideas
when mischief was brewing.
His latest proposal was causing a
great commotion. Imbued with the
Yankee spirit, he wanted to celebrate
the Fourth of July.
Like true Britons, the whole school
mad at first objected. But when Frank
vaguely limited of the many new fire.
to make, and dilated on the fun they
could have with them at this time OF
the year, their patriotism cooled. and
most of them agreed to assist him.
The elder boys. however. jealous Of
Franks growing popularity, did all
they could to suppress the scheme.
Ihere had been many angry disputes,
Tor Frank, accustomed to leading, chafed
under opposition; and crowd was
now fiercely wrangling over the matter
round the cricket pavilion.
Who cares tuppence about the
Fourth of july" said Polling, their
vice-captain and the principal objector.
L don't know anything about the
Fourth of July"
"Or anything else I guess" put in
Frank. aggressively. Look here.

fun"
Fun" said Polling: "all rot, L"
But the Texan would stand no more.
Tell you what" said he. beginning
to take Off his coat: III you can lick
me, reckon the thing can slide"
Polling was ready enough: in a mo-
ment he threw off his coat, and faced
his challenger.
But 1t was not to be. Jackson. SEN
ior, their captain, stepped between
them. The doctor had asked him to
keep an eye on Frank: and the young
ster looked no match for Polling. who
was one of the best fighters in the
school.
What's the odds, Pelling?" said he.
BLOW the Fourth of July! Let him
have his fireworks II he wants them"
The boys, though ever eager for n
fight, backed up their captain: and
Frank being we'll content with this
compromise. the matter was amicably
settled.
For the next few days Frank was
hard at work. Nearly all were ready
to assist him. but only faithful few
were permitted to have a hand in the
arrangements.
They made several surreptitious ;our-
neys into the town, and had quickly
collected all the necessary materials.
