Five Miles Up in the Air.

Two daring London eronauts as

a balloon and nearly froze to death
Gbe temperature at that height
was 81 degrees below zero, The
men went IN the interest of science,
and while the actual benefit of their
trip to humanity at large was con
siderable, it will not begin to equal
the great good accomplished by the
medical scientist who gave the
world Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
Nothing to equal this remedy has
ever been discovered for ailments of
the stomach, liver, bowels and kid

A FRIENDS ADVICE.
 And what it led to.

It Is not a common occurrence that a friendly word should be the means of giv- ing nearly forty years of happiness and health to the person needing the advice 1t carried. This was the case with Mary Lingard. At twenty-five she was dragging out her days in misery. At sixty-one she finds herself so active and strong she can do work that would shame many younger woman, and looks back on thirty-six happy, healthful years of industry. But let her tell her story.
 "Thirty-six years ago had great trouble with my liver. The doctors allowed that there were tunors growing on it, and they blistered my side in an effort to give me relief. l was at that time earning my living as a tailoress, but for five years, between the pain in my side and the blisters I was in constant misery, and work was drag to me, with no prospect of relief; fortunately for me, however, a friend advised me to take Dr. Ayers Sar saparilla, and finally persuaded me to take menced taking the Sarsaparil1a my side was so painful that could nos fasten my dress, and for time l did not get any relief but my friend advised me to per severe and relief was sure to come, and come it did. This happened, as l say, thirty-six years ago. My liver has never troubled me since, and during these years have passed through the most critical period of woman's life without any par ticular trouble, and today, at sixty-one years of age, am active and strong, and able to do days work that would upset

Marie Antoinette.

Marie Antoinette was the first per son who broke the absurd fashion of dressing infant boys as droll miniatures of their fathers. She attired the unfor- tunate dauphin in a simple blue jacket and trousers, for which she was re- viled as if little bag-wigs and tiny cooked hats and all the absurd para phernalia of full dress had been points of moral obligation. Even at the iu- venile parties given by George III. and Queen Charlotte, the little boys were freuuently dressed after the models of their fathers court costumes, with the powdered side curls, single-breastcd coats. knee brooches and shoe buckles.

 'She is called by her husbands name, dear. He is Lord Henry Somerset"

FIRE GRENADE AGENT FOOLED.
The Proprietor of the Hotel Lost a
 Good Customer.

The proprietor of a suburban hotel has a son whose sense of humor seems likely to re- suit in the destruction of the business of the house. Recently one of the guests was the travellng representative of a fire grenade manufacturing house. The grenades are green glass bottles filled with a compound that IS said to smother fire They are hurled into the center of the blaze, and bursting with the force of the impact render an engine and a lineNf hose unnecessary.
 The fire grenadk agent remained several days at the hotel and advertised that before his departure he would give grand exhibi- tlon of the efficiency of the green glass bot ties. Early in the evening when the exhi- hitlon was advertised to take place large and curious crowd gathered in front of the hotel. The agent caused a fire to be built in the street, boxes and barrels being piled many feet high After seeing that the fire was roaring merrily the agent made his ap- pearance bearing an armful of fire grenades. He hurled the bottles one after another into the blazing pile, but instead of smothering the flames the grenades seemed to have the opposite effect The fire blazed up nearly twice it's former height, and the surround ing buildings began to shed their paint, while the crowd drew back from the fierce heat.
 The agent was the most astonished man in the group until he learned that the son of the hotel proprietor had extracted the gren- ades from the sample case, poured out the contents and then filled them with gaso- line The crowd soon found out that the grenades had been "doctored,'' and yells of derision nearly drowned the protests of the agent as he attempted to persuade the hotel proprietor that the house should pay the costs of the indulgence of the small boys umor.-Chieago Times Herald.

ARTIFICIAL INDIGO.
Vne Of Indfa's Industries ImpcriIed
 by Recent Discoveries.

by Recent Discoveries.
 Chemical experiments which had in view the production of artificial in- digo, and which, consequently, threat ened to extinguish great East Indian industry, have been in progress for years, but they have only recently reached stage where this product can be obtained cheaply enough to compete with the old article commercially. There was a time when, in central Germany, large quantity of indigo was manufactured from a homegrown plant. But for some reason the indigo plant of East India yielded a much larger proportion of dye than this one, and after century or two, in spite of protective legislation and the promises or European manufacturers to use only the domestic indigo, the Germans abandoned the further production of the latter. It now looks as if East In- dla were about to experience d similar fate. At the present time her indigo industry yields her several millions of dollars. She furnishes the calico print CTS of the whole world with dye-stuff.
 Chemistry has found it much easier task to take a substance apart than to put it together again. Countless es- sences and extracts have been analysed, and their exact composition learned. Careful lists have been made, showing the precise proportion in which the atoms of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen go together in these compounds But when the chemist attempts to build up one of these substances from its ele- ments he often discovers that they won't combine. Already several per- fumes of flowers have been exactly initiated by this method, and 30 years ago, after 45 years of experiment, a cheap way of getting the coloring principle of madder, a beautiful red dye, out of coal tar was found Since that time it has not been profitable to raise the madder plant. The possibil- ity of mans putting together the in- gradients which nature employs in making the essential part of indigo, and in precisely the same proportions, was demonstrated long time ago. And synthetic chemistry" has since been studying the problem of cheap ening the process, so that it might be placed on a commercial basis.
 A German house, the Badische Anitin and Soda Fabrik, of Ludwigshafen-o the-Rhine, has within a few months placed on the market an almost pure ndigo blue at price so very near that of the East Indian article that for midable competition is at last threat ened. It should be observed that the indigo plant yields, in addition to the blue principle (indigo-tin) red dye. The manufacturing chemists have thus far got only the blue dye Moreover, it is alleged that the system of treating the East Indian plant now in vogue does not extract all of either principle which exists there. Improved methods of manufacture may perhaps cheapen the natural article little more. It is too soon, therefore, to predict the com plete downfall of the indigo business of the east. But it is certainly in great CT peril to-day than ever before.-N. Y. Tribune.
