Bright red spectacles, accompanied by
internal doses of calomel, form a new
German specific against seaslckness. 1t
is deduced from Epstein's Investigations
on the influence OF color on the blood
vessels IN the brain. SeaSckness Is due
TO lack of blood in the brain. while red
sends blood to the brain with rush. BY
looking at one point for some time
through the red glasses the patient is
cured radically.

ONE HUNDRED CARLOADS a DAY.

During the harvest season OF 1897 Nc
Cormick harvesting machines were ship
ped out to purchasers at the rate Of one
hundred carloads day. This record
was never equaled-never even approch-
ed-by any other manufacturer of farm
machinery Of any kind. This means
something. It means that the farmer is
an expert judge of tools and implements
intended for farm use. It means that, In
spite of the fact that the country is con-
siderably Numbered up" with ''cheap
John" binders and mowers, still the big
gest market is for the best-not for
those machines which are the cheapest
to buy, but for those which are the
cheapest to own. Mccormick machines
for 1898 are built to break all records
all records for efficiency, general salts
faction, and numbers sold. Is you want
to see roller bearings practically applied
to harvesting machines, call at the near
est Mccormick agency. Mccormick
roller bearings were patented in 1882; up
to the present time they have not been
improved upon by any manufacturer OF
binders and mowers. In saving the
worlds grain and grass crop of 1895
more than fifteen hundred thousand Nc.
Cormick machines will be employed
Never in the history of manufacturers
was machinery Of any kind turned out
upon SO magnificent q scale as that now

What are the lessons to be impressed
on the public mind this Memorial day,
just gone? In answer we quote from an
admirable editorial In the Springfield Re-
publican. 1t says: The sons are no
less patriotic than the fathers. All
these recent weeks have testified to the
fact. We have all said that If ever war
should arise and sacrifices be called for
the proof of our devotion ould follow !;
it is now being offered, and the test is to
be pushed through this war with Spain
and beyond. The country enters upon
this war soberly, reluctantly, and yet
ungrudgingly. 1t obeyed the call Of
duty when the summons of mercy be-
came imperative, and the conscience of
the people went into the work of freeing
Cuba. The president and Congress
placed our action upon grounds so noble
and unselflsh that criticism among the
nations was stilled. We were proud of
the United States of America. Slavery
is buried and there are no mournera
about its grave. The enslaYed have be-
come go inwrought with the citizenship
of the country that negroes are now
soldiers and officers in the army of the
U nited States. Men and women of the
South, erstwhile our foes, will to day
honor bravery by laying flowers upon
the graves where the bodies of Union
soldiers were buried. The spirit of free
dom dominates with unbroken sway
this undivided, renewed and magnificent
ly progressive land, and we are witness
ing new birth of unity in the throes Of
war begun for humsnity's cake. The
maj or-generals of the volunteer army Of
1898 include Gems Fitzhugh Lee and
Joseph Wheeler, who were gallant fight
ers for the cause that went down forever
In 1865. The restoration of love fol
country is thus evidenced in the beauty
OF perfected fraternal unity. The flower
Of our youth, South and North, are
marching under the old flag, the emblem
of a nationality blessed beyond the
dream Of statesmen and poets, and fit tt
command our service to the last sacrifice
Of life itself.

The Scientific American, which has
always Unidentified itself very closely
with the interests of the Navy, is to be
congratulated on the extremely hand
some and valuable "Navy Supplement-
which it has lately put before the public.
We think that, if the average reader had
been asked beforehand what kind of q
work he would prefer upon the Navy,
he would have asked for just such an
Issue as this. Both the Illustrations and
the reading matter are Of the straight
forward explanatory kind which is neees-
sary to put a technical subject clearly
before the lay mind. 1t was a happy
thought to preface the work with a
chapter upon the classification Of war
ships and insert few diagrams by way
of explanation of the subtitle differences
between cruisers, monitors and battle.
ships; for after digesting this chapter
one is prepared to follow intelligently
the detailed descriptions Of the various
ships which make up the bulk of the
issue. One Of the best things about this
number is that it does not merely give
an external illustration of each ship, but
1t takes the reader down below decks,
and initiates him into the mysteries OF
the magazines, handling rooms, ammu-
milton hoists and motive machinery.
The sectional views of the interior of the
turrets of the monitors are exceptionally
fine, as ia the large wood engraving Of
