insane, frequently their whole nature is re-
versed. They do and say exactly the op-
posite things to what they would do In
their sane minds. A mother whose mind
breaks down under extreme nervous ten
sion may turn upon the one object in all
the world most precious to her-her baby.
The terrible nervous tension under which
many women live and suffer because of
some weakness or disease of their sex,
keeps them on the very verge of insanity.
The constant drag and drain upon the com.
plicated and delicate organism affects the
whole nervous system and works upon the
brain with an almost irresistible madness.
Thousands of suffering women have been
literally saved from the insane asylum by
the timely influence of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. 1t is the one perfect and pos
tive specific for every arrangement of wo-
mans special organism. 1t is scientific
and permanent cure for those severe,

THE SWORD OF SALADIN.
A Blacksmith Says He Knows the
Secret of Damascus Steel.

A Blacksmith Says He Knows the
Secret of Damascus Steel.
The Damascus blade of Saladin may
yet be duplicated. 1t will be if the
claims of James ii. Duffy, Machias-
port (Me.) blacksmith, are justified by
the practical results which he prom
Uses. Mr.. Duffy asserts that he discov-
cred the long lost art Of producing
Damascus steel, and also the ancient
method of hardening copper and brass.
Ten years has the "Michiasport Wiz
ard" as his neighbors call him, spent
patiently experimenting with the
metals, during which time he has often
severely taxed his financial resources
He declares, however, that for his sacri-
fees he has been more than repaid by
his success.
Mr.. Duffy was first led into making
experiments when he opened his smith
shop in Machiasport. He was born in
Bangor "a years ago, and after few
years schooling learned the trade of
horseshoeing and blacksmithing When
he moved to Machiasport the canning
industry had begun to grow, and the
soldering coppers used in the factories
were sent to him for repairs. He no.
ticed that the coppers wore away rapid
ly and that when two-thirds of the
business end of one was worn away it
had TO be cast aside.
Mr.. Duffy thought that if copper
could be welded two old soldering tools
that were worthless might be welded
into one that would be worth some
thing. The difficulty was to find the
way to weld them. 1t couldn't be done
by the ordinary way of heating, be-
cause copper became soft when heated,
and therefore as soldering tools they
would be no good after having been
welded
A few years ago he astonished the
factory men by taking lot of cast off
soldering coppers and bringing them
back nicely welded and as perfect as
new ones. In fact, they were more
perfect than new ones, for not only did
they hold the heat as well as the rev
tools, but they did not wear away so
quickly, and for this reason alone they
were more valuable.
Then the wizard surprised his inti-
mate acquaintaEces by producing from
his laboratory copper sword, which
he proceeded to bend into a circle AMI
let it spring back into shape again,
which, says the Boston, Globe, it did as
the most perfect Damascus steel
would. Next he astonished them by |
producing a copper razor, with which
he gave himself perfect shave and the
razor still retained its keen edge.
The wizard will talk about the quail |
ity of the metal he produces, but is
reticent in regard to the process |
through which he puts it. He will only |
say that in his experiments in attempt |
ing to weld copper without rendering
it permanently soft he struck upon the
secret Of the ancients' method of max
ng Damascus steel.
He positive that he has it. He says
that, although he has made sone won
1erful discoveries, he has learned that
-hese are but the beginning of great
series of discoveries that must follow
as part of these. The transmutation
Of metals, he thinks, is one of these tina!
will follow upon his discoveries.-N. Y.

ballast as a Distributing Agency.

Ballast is the first of the distribu-
ion methods which may be combined
under the head Of "agency of man." The
discharge of earth ballast by vessels
coming from abroad has been notable
means of distribution Of plants by seed:
We have just seen how many seeds may
germinate from a very small lump of
earth, and the possibilities in this direc-
ton of the many thousands of pounds
of discharged ballast are very great. In
fact, the ballast grounds in the neigh
borhood of gsaat cities are invariably
favored botanical collecting spots; they
have usually distinctive fora of their
own, and from these centers many
introduced plants. spread into the sur
rounding country.-Nature.

TO DYE CARPET RAGS.
A Simple and Easy Way to Color Carpet
Rags, so They Will Not Fade.

To color carpet rags SO they will not
fade one should be sure to get the Fast
Diamond Dyes for cotton. There are
some twelve fast and special colors,
while for wool there are about thirty.
All of the Diamond Dyes thatare marked
fast will make colors that do not fade or
crock.
1t is impossible to get satisfactory col
ors on both wool and cotton with the
same dye, although some cheap dyes
that are able to make only a few colors,
claim that their dyes will color both
cotton and wool. A trial soon shows
by ruined goods the falsity of these
claims Take nothing but the Original
and reliable Diamond Dyes that have
been used in thousands of homes for the
last twenty years.

THE GROWTH OF TEXAS.

The State of Texas made great pro-
gress during the year just ended. 1t
is estimated the State gains $50, 900 in
population. The State is now well COW
cred with farms and ranches, there be-
ing little good land left not under fence
The products OF field, ranches, actor
les and mines during 1897 easily foots
up $500, 100000. The greatest advance
has been in agriculture apd>cattle.
Ia lroad ind factory building has been
slow-ltss, if anything, than usual. The
oil p oduct on around G rsicana proves
that the State will soon be reconed as
equ ling some Of the Middle States.

Shipping Swapping Turtles.

Huge, live swapping turtles are COM
ing to the New York market from
Grand Rapids, Mich. This is new in
dustry started i'll modest way, but
which shows great possibilities. 1t has
been conducted by one man, who since
July 7 has expressed $500 pounds of
swapping turtles to New York, Philadel-
phia and Cincinnati. The turtles were
all caught in Muskegon river, near the
head of the lake. The river for miles
up is infested with turtles in such num-
bers that the supply may almost be said
to be unlimited. They grow and thrive
there in the most ilourishing manner.
In warm weather they are active and
can readily be caught by those who
know how TO do it.. Turtles are in good
demand in the large cities by restaur-
ants and hotels, which use them for
making tcrrapin. They are handled
and shipped in strong sacks, and those
received here have weighed from four
to forty pounds each, the average being
from Is to 90 pounds.-N. Y. Times.
