A New YorI, Cenfrnl Innnvntinn.


 George H. Daniels, of the New York Cen tral Hudson River Railroad, has made an announcement which is of a rather start ling nature, but it is one which ought to please the patrons of that great system, and particularly those who travel on mileage books. The circular reads as follows:
 Mileage books, good for 800 miles and l,000 miles travel, are now on sale at all stations on the New ! York Central (divisions and branches) at the rate of $10 and SEQ respectively.
 These tickets are good until used, and are available tor passage on the main line of the New York Central, and all of its branches and divisions, including the Harlem, Put Carthage < Adirondack, Geneva & Lyons and the Adirondack Utica to Montfea) di- visions.
 Mileage books will be issued in the name Of the head of family or firm, and will be available for the use of any member of such family or for any traveller for firm, pro vided the name of such member or traveller IS written in the book by the agent selling it, in the place designated. They will be honored for transportation by the conduct ors of all trains, including limited trains, but only to the end of the run of each conductor. If the holder of such ticket desires to ride beyond the run of conductor, or on night train, or to a point on branch line, he should present his mileage ticket to the ticket agent, who will detach the proper mileage and issue mileage exchange ticket, on which baggage will be checked to any sta tion on the New York Central or any of it's branch lines, thus avoiding the necessity of being disturbed after retiring, or of reeheck- ing baggage-From the Pittsburgh Post, August 2l, 1898.

ADULTERATIoN OF FOOD.
English Are Adopts in the Business Especially of Sauces
 and Jams.

From time to time one reads so much in the newspapers concerning the adulteration of American food, says an eminent New York analytical chem ist, that the average consumer might be tempted to believe that this is the only country in which such fraud and deception is practieed. But this is far from being the truth, for during a re- cent visit to England I had occasion to test the quality of various eatables there, and the result was that 1 found they contain much larger percentage of deleterious matter than our own products possess.
 For instance, bottled fruits are in England colored green by the addi- ton of copper in the form of the sup phate (.'bluestone"). A knife blade immersed in the juice of the fruit will rapidly become coated with bright deposit of metallic copper. The Eng fish have not adopted the simple and harmless plan which the French have of giving an apparent green color to their preserved fruits and olives by the use of bottles made of green glass. Sauces, potted meats and fish are con stantly adulterated or colored by means of Armenian bile This is done partly from custom, but chiefly to con ceal the dirty appearance of the pastes and sauces. The British public will have its anchovy sauce red. The un- eoiored sauce is unstable, though the superior to the red abomination, tie filth being removed from the former. while in the latter it i, merely con cealed by ihe Armenian pile. Jams are aduIterated by the mixture of inferior fruits. Marlnalade frequently contains apple pulp or even turnips. Goloring matter and artificial favorings are freely used.
 An ingenious industry goes on large lv in London which is wholly unsus- peeted by the public. Raspberries, or anges and other fruits are purchased by the wholesale chemists and the juice extracted. Then the pulp is bought at low price by the manu- lecturers of cheap jams for favorirg and placed upon the market as fine new season jam or marmalade. Nus tard is adulterated with four and tumeric; pepper with husls of seeds and any kind of dust that comes handy to the dishonest vender. So that the business of the drug grinder offers just as much temptation to the adulteratoI ;n England as it does in America Washington Star.

THE MAJORS EXPERIENCE.
From the Detroit Free Press

One of the stanchest supporters of the deep-water way from the Great Lakes to the ocean is Major A. c. Bishop, of 7l5 Third Ave, Detroit, a civil engineer of wide expe- rienee and considerable prominence in his Hudson River Railroad in 1850 and nas since conducted large engineering opera tions. He has been located in Detroit, since 1915, and has a large acquaintance among the business men and citizens of this city.
 Two years ago, for the first time, Major Bishop was in the hospital. For two months when he was discharged he was not like the Major Bishop of old. When asked regard ing his health, he said: "When I had my last spell of sickness and came out of the hospital was a sorry sight, l could not gain ny strength, and could not walk over block

BOWS OF THE ANcIEUTs

The Greek bow WIS mi rnou. .,.- three or four feet in lanotb b,t siian stout and stiff that it required consid ons so eiapie strength and skill to use it
 The Romans carired the bow fo Rri+ an, where it at once obtainea favor ana during the middle ages was eTtens slyely used, forming an important els. ment of the armies of that period.
 While universally used by tb. an elents the form of the bow varied witb olnerent nations. The Scythian bow was Tn form of the letter C and the bow of the Tartars-descendants of 4bs ocythlans-still keeps that shape.
 1t is said that the first Greek bowa were made from the horns of a speoies of goat, the bases being united bv means of metallic band. Afterward other material was used in their man. u1acture, but they still retained their original shape. These bows were too short to be of much use, and, compara- lively speaking. but a small portion of the troops were armed with them.
 The English archers were said 10 be the finest in the world. and their skill decided the battles of Creey, Poitiers and Agineourt. The bows used were of two kinds, the long bow and the arba- lest or cross-bow. The arbalest was made of steel or horn, and was of such strength and stiffness that it was nec. essary to use some mechanical appli, ance to bend it and adjust the string. The arbalesters carried a quiver with 90 arrows and were placed in the van of the battle.
