A Rust Preventer.

"A new rust preventer is highly spok-
en- of by engineers, who claim that it
has at length overcome one of the
greatest sources of trouble with which
those who have charge of machinery
have daily to contend. 1t has been
adopted by the German army and navy,
and by a large number of European
manufacturers. 1t is composed of
greases and volatile oils, which evap-
crate on exposure to the air, leaving
an air-tight film of skin, which adheres
tightly to the metal, and absolutely and
permanently prevents the corrosive
act on OF salt air, salt water, rain, snow.
dampness, steam, gases and fumes OF
acid or ammonia. 1t is neither paint
or lacquer, nor product of petroleum.
1t is, and remains, absolutely neutral,
contains no acid, and leaves neither
spots nor marks when removed.
The coating is transparent, and as 1t
does not dull the appearance of bright
metal surfaces, it is of special service
to machinery builders and dealers who
have goods in stock. 1t does not crack,
and is not absorbed by dust, paper or
cloth wrappers, nor does it rub off in
handling as does oils and petroleum jel-
lies. This quality makes it invaluable
for the shippers of machinery, AS it
stands very high temperature without
melting, it can be used with advantage
on the bright parts Of boilers, engines,
etc. A given quantity covers a large
amount of surface, one gallon being
sufficient to protect LOO square feet.
1t is easily applied with rag or soft
brush, and can be quickly removed
with turpentine or benzine, point of
superiority over white lead. 1t is
claimed that an article once coated
with it is protected from rust as long
as the film is allowed to remain.-Ohio
Valley Manufacturer.

1t is interesting to note the different
incognitos which European rulers now
use. The Queen of England travels I'M
der the name of Countess of Balmoral,
while the Prince of Wales assumes the
title of Earl of Chester. The Empress
of Austria is known outside of her
own country only as the Countess of
Hohenems; ex-Empress Euegnie of
France travels as the Countess of
Pierrefonds; the King of Belgium as
the Count of Ravenstein; and the ex-
Queen of Naples as the Duchess de
Castro

Fined for Stealing Cranberries.

Mrs. Hattie Jefts, wife of Daniel Jefts of
Holmes of Keene Saturday morning, charged
with stealing two quarts of cranberries from
the land of Joseph G. Hubbard, who lives
about one mile from Chesterfield Centre.
The evidence was conclusive, but on account
of the heavy costs no further fine was i'm.
posed than their payment. They aggregated
$l4 10, making the price per quart of cram
berries to Mrs Jefts $705 The warrant was
served by Deputy Sheriff.. w. Buckmnster.

Gold In New Hampshire.

While Somersworth residents are forming
Klondike parties and getting ready to start
for northwestern gold fields comes the sur
prising report of the discovery of gold in
their own city.
On the land of Newell j. Bickford of Part
ridge hill is ledge, from which the owner
recently took rock which local experts
claim to be gold-bearing quartz. The speci-
men shows also streaks OF yellow metals.
Mr.. Bickford says he is going to have it
examined by an assayist and if it proves to
be collaborating ore of sufficient percentage
to pay for mining he will al once begin oper-
atoms. He is sure the rock was part of the
ledge and could not have been carried there.

Don't give them tea or coffee. Have You tried

of coffee. The more Grain-0 you give the

An Iowa man took his best girl to the
theatre and the number on her ticket drew a
bicycle. He claimed the wheel ON the
ground that his money purchased the ticket
and all he intended to give the girl was the
benefit of the performance. The girl pluckily
refused to give up the machine and a jury
finally awarded it to her. That man is mean
enough to appeal the case.

Of Ohio. one Of the officers remarked
that after man was grown and tenn

conclusion that for the success Of the

be done among boys. "Nickels expend-

been formed" Even the habitual
drinker must stand appalled, before the

first, because it vas impossible to har-

specifications, rendering the received
bids inapplicable. The commission

for bids on revised and uniform
