Efficacy of Olive Oil.

Medical authorities are generally

icinally, finding it also potent agent
for any defects of the excretory ducts,
especially the skin. Eczema has rapidly
disappeared upon a discontinuance OF
starch foods and the substitution of
diet of fresh and dried fruits, milk,
eggs and olive oil. The beneficial effects
of the latter, when thus taken i'll con-
junction with a fruit diet, have fire.

hair, nails and scalp, supplying to the
sebaceous glands the oily substance
which they secrete when in healthy
condition, and the absence of which is
the cause of debility of the hair. fire.
ouently ending in badness says The
Scientific American. 1t has long been
observed that those who treat olive Oil
as common article of food and use 1t
as such are generally healthier and i'll
better condition than those who do not,
and it's therapeutic and prophylactic
properties are very favorably regarded
by medical men. 1t is known to be de-
structiyc to certain forms of micro or
ganic life, and for the eradication OF such
from tho system it's internal use has

Brave Acts.

On Jubilee day, which COMMUNICATED
the discovery of gold in California in
1S49, squad Of Battery Of the regu-
lar army was firing salute at Limo
Point fort, near San Francisco. One
load-the charge was so pounds of pow
der inclosed in wooden bag-did not
go off, and the officer in command or
dered it to be pulled out of the cannon.
The charge was withdrawn, and as
1t dropped to the ground it was seen
that one corner of Inc wooden bag was
on fire. In ALI instant the powder would
have caught and the seven men with
their officer would have been killed.
Private John NJ. Jones jumped toward
the sinol.lering bag, rolled it III the
mud and with his bare hands plastered
the siuged edges with damp earth.
1t was quick, brave deed, and had
the hero been a British soldier it would
have brought him a Victoria cross to
wear on his breast.
During the sepoy war young cap
tain of artillery saw an ignited shell
fall near his battery. Instantly he lift
ed it up, carried it to q distance and
flung it away. Just then it burst, shat
tering his left forearm.

Itwould seem indeed as if years only
added to tho charm of certain renlarka-
bio women. Mary Stuart was AZ at the
time she was bcheaded, yet she used
her irresistible powers of fascination
through all her imprisonments and up
to the very last act of the tragedy
Froude, it is true, insists ON certain I'M
romantic details, such as the wearing
of a wig by the queen ON the day OF ex-
ecution. but what are wigs when
weighed in the balance with immortal
fascination? 1t was true that Mary was
no special favorite with her own sex,
nor does she nowadays inspire any dis
interested enthusiasm among women
No; Mary Stuart was "a mans wom-
AM both during her life and ever since
her death. The army of her masculine
admirers is legion, and the books that
thev have written in her cause form
literature in themselves. The queen OF
Scots died young and fascinating at Al
and she will always remain the type Of
etcrnally irresistible womanhood.-Ex

at San Juan before the war and has
since been an exile, chiefly at st. Thorn

and the entire foreign consular corps.
The outposts of the American army
have advanced seven miles to Coame,
on the San Juan road. The large town
of Juan Diaz has been occupied by the
invading column, and the Spanish lines
are now but two miles away
When the American army entered
Juan Diaz, the townspeople were over
joyed. They gathered together and
greeted the troops with a band which
blared "Tar-ra-ra- Boom -de-aye!" as the
column moved on. The stars and stripes
was wildly cheered by the populace.
Defrauded the Natives.
Contract Surgeon Chidsey Of the
cruiser Cincinnati and Private Dehas of
the Sixth regiment of Illinois volunteers

Confederate money upon the unsuspect-

Even if the wind is blowing right

STING OF THE BEE.
Poisonous Properties That Lurk In II,
Honey Maker.

Poisonous Properties That Lurk In the
Honey Maker.
The chemical and toxic properties of
tho poison of the honeybee have been a
subject for long study by German sci
enlist, DIR. Joseph Zanger. During his
investigation DR.. Zanger employed 90,
900 bees. He found that the fresh poison
is clear, like water, Of an acid reaction,
bitter taste and of a fine aromatic odor.
On evaporating and drying at tenn
perature Of 100 degrees centigrade (212
degrees F. gummy residue is left. 1t
is soluble in water; with alcohol it
forms an emulsionlike mixture. The
aromatic odor is due to volatile sub
stance, which disappears on evaporation
and is not poisonous. The poisonous
constituent is not destroyed by short
boiling nor by drying and heating the
residue to 212 degrees F. nor by the di-
luted acids or alkalis.
DR.. Zanger has proved the existence
Of formic acid, but he has also proved
that that is not the poisonous principle.
The latter is an organic base soluble,
with difficulty, in water, but kept in so.
luton by an acid. On the healthy skin
neither the bee poison nor per cent
solution Of the poisonous principle has
any effect, but they act as powerful ir-
ritants OH the mucuous membranes.
His tests made on rabbits and other
animals show that when the poison is
brought in contact with the eye there
follow lachrymation, hyperemia, che
mosis and croupous membrane or con-
junctiva. The general condition is also
affected; the animals become melan-
choly, take no food, but are very thirsty,
and the urine shows small amounts Of
albumen. -Philadelphia Record.
