Good Advice.

In the course of recent letter to the
editor of the Manufacturers Record,
G. 2. Hun tingtOn president OF the
Suthern Pacific railway, says:
81 do think, however, that the people
of the south have for "a long time been
standing in their own light and are
largely responsible for the retardment
of their own prosperity, from which
they have suffered. Capital is timid,
because it's use is always attended with
the natural risk of errors of judgment
and emergencies of the times. When
to this risk is added the dangers threat
ened by legislatures which turn a cold
shoulder to capital or pei haps evince
hostility to it by their open efforts to
curtail its independence, attack its
security and practically contiscate the
property represented by it, what won
der is it that men who would like to
develop with their money the resources
which await their energy, enterprise
and thrift shrink from the hazards and
decline to place themselves in the
power of those who, by their actions,
seem to show only desire to hamper
and destroy them?
O''The south of today is a great en-
pire of industry lying fallow, as it
were, for the lack of seed. There is
plenty of money in the country, and it
is casting about the profitabl employ
ment. The middle west has welcomed
it, and grown fat on it's utilization in
mum berless channels of trade, COM
merce and manufacture. Let the
south be hospitable to her guest, and
show him that while within her bOrd-
ers he is safe, and her advance in
everything that goes to build up a
country and make it great will be
marvelously rapid and permanently
assured"

FRANCE pursues a different policy
toward her provinces from that usually
carried out by Great Britain. Instead
of crushing out the spirit and lives OF
newly conquered people and draining
the country of its wealth, France devel-
ops the resources of the country and
encourages the natives to assist in the
development and to share in the re-
suits. The French government is now
granting liberal concessions for the
construction of railways and wagon
roads in her great colony of Madagas-
car, and is encouraging the colonial
ton of thrifty people on the rich lands
of the island.

PROBABLY the next great gold reg
ion to attract the restless and venture
some prospector will be that of Sum-
atra, Borneo, Celebes and other islands
of the Indian Archipelago. For CEN
turtles it has been known that rich and
extensive gold deposits exist along the
west coast of Sumatra, and the story
that Solomon and the Queen of Sheba,
established a factory on the isle of
Sumatra, was one of the ancient trad
itions of the country, as it is still.
Claudius Ptolomaeus, in the second
century of our era, and early Sancrit
poems, mention Sum atra as one of the
great gold producing countries of the
world, and in the latter half of the six
teenth century the Dutch East India
company worked gold and silver mines
in Sumatra land also in Celebes and
java which had been extensively
worked ages before, but abandoned
them in 1896, on account of lack of IA
cilities for reduction. In the mean
time they had shipped to Amsterdam
1,649,1 ia pounds of ore of an assay val
ue OF S246 per ton-that being the low
est grade they attempted to handle.

Mrs. A. Tween, residing at 72O Henry

Some idea of the magnitude of the
British navy and the expense of main
tanning it can be found when it is stat
ed that England will spend this year
on her naval establishment the enor-
nous sum of S175, 100000. 1t is esti-
mated that during the year lob vessels
will be under construction, and over
sixty of them will be completed by De-
cember next, and as the new ships
which are being sent to foreign sta
tions to take the place of the old ones
of inferior size, call for more men,
there will be 1901 men in the Eng
lish naval service next year.

A Few Comments On the " orth of the
Souvenir Edition.

Producing Rain.

If anybody would like to produce
clouds and rain on a small scale 1T Is
easy to do so. according to Prof. l..
Errerea, who describes the process In
Ciel ct Terre. He advises that the ex-
pertinent be made with cylindrical
vase of Bohemian glass about eight
inches in height and five inches in di-
ameter. 1t should be filed half full OF
strong alcohol, about 90 per cent pure,
covered with porcelain saucer and
warmed in hot water bath. 1t must
be warmed for quite awhile. so that the
liquid vase and cover may attain high
temperature without bringing the alcO-
hol to the boiling point. Then the whole
should be removed to wooden table,
taking care not to agitate the fluid, and
results may he awaited. The warm IL
| quid will continue to send up an abun
ance of alcoholic vapors. In a few minutes
| the porcelain cover will be so far cool
ed that the vapors nearest to 1t will be-
gin to condense, aud thus very clearly
clouds will be formed. Presently
these clouds will begin to resolve them
selves into tiny droplets of rain, which
will fall vertically into the liquid.
There will be countless numbers CT
| these raindrops, and the interesting
spectacle may go on for half an hour.
At first the vaporS will rise quite up to
| the porcelain cover, but IS the whole
cools the condensation will occur at a
lower level. Then there will be per-
fectly clear zone above the cloud zone,
and nature will be exactly reproduced,
except that in the place of water every
thing is made of alcohol. The clear
space above will represent the pure
sky, below which are the clouds, con-
densing into rain. which is returned
to the liquid, representing the ocean,
from which it came. Thus the expert
ment illustrates in miniature the whole
| aqueous circulation of the atm osDhere.
