Physics of Air and Sunshine.

In the Temple Bar Rev. Mr.. Bacon
says that the best preventives of dis
ease are cleanliness and the access of
sunlight and fresh air as being the
agents most powerful in the suppress
sion of bacteria. Large towns in Brit
ain have each their true west end, for
the western and southern winds being
those that mostly prevail there, it fol-
lows that during large portion of the
year the smoke and fog drift away TO
the east and northeast, leaving the west
clearer and purer. The writer claims
British weather is at once the most
capricious and at the same time the
best adapted to vigorous and healthful
enjoyment of life. The Briton is a stran-
ger to the long ordeal of unvarying
southern skies, the breath of pestilen-
tiul air, and the stroke of sun or ague.
The face and physique of the typical
Britisher is the true weather mark Of
+ his climate.

THE GREAT CORN STATES.
Enormous Crops Raised in the Mid
die West and the Prices
Realized.

The great corn states, according to
the statistics of last year, writes John
Gilmer Speed, in Ainslee's, are in the
order named, Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska,
Missouri, Kansas, Indiana, Texas and
Ohio. Each of these states grew in ex-
cess of 100000, 900 bushels, while the to-
tai of Iowa was 254999,s50 bushels.
This year we are promised from Kansas
alone in excess of 350000,000 bushels.
Montana, among the new states, grew
the smallest amount of corn last year,
and Rhode Island among the old states.
In Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Massachusetts, Connecticut, North Da-
kota, Montana, Wyoming and Washing
ton all of the corn grown was con-
sumed at home, practically none of it
being transported beyond the county
in which it was produced. The other
states, according to the amount grown,
shipped corn to other parts of the coun
try and abroad. In price the corn on
the farms realized all the way from
66 cents bushel in Montana TO % cents
in Iowa, the general average through
out the cohtry being IS 40 cents per
bushel. In 1897 this general average
was 26 $40 cents; in 1896 it was 81 $40
cents; in 1895 il was 25 $40 cents, and in
1894 it was As 40 cents. In the latter
year US94) the production was short,
being somewhat more than 30 per cent.
less than last year.

NOT UNPRECEDENTED.
A Sad Case of Ruin Coming ThrOug h
Temporary Success In Race
Track Gambling.

This is the saddest case of ruin com
ing from success that ! ever heard of,
and the fact that the result not only
brought desolation on the person HIM
self, but upon his whole family, makes
the instance especially sad, says Lon
don Answers.
He was the only son of prosperous
provision merchant, and, with a be-
ginner's luck. won some hundreds of
pounds on the turf. Elated by his sue
cess, he CHANGED larger sums, lost all
he had won, and, in vain attempt to
recoup himself, took some of the money
collected from his fathers customers.
Shortly afterward his father accident
ally discovered that a large account
which was owing to hiTl had been paid
to his son and not accounted for. In
quiry was made, and it was found that
the outstanding accounts did not
amount TO as many pence as there
should have been pounds; and in addi-
ton, Wholesale firms who were sup
posed to have been paid by the son
had received nothing. The whole had
gone in fruitless efforts to "back win
uers."
The result was that. after so years
trading, the business was broken up,
and the father, mother and sisters of
this unfortunate man were reduced to
extreme poverty.

A FARM OR A FACTORY.

When you buy farm, or build a fac
tory, it is natural to consider all condi-
tons. and to locate to the very best adj
vantage. In the northern portion of
Wisconsin their lies a vast stretch of I'M
developed, or partially developed coun-
try, which is awaiting the settler and
manufacturer to turn it into productive
ness and wealth.
Thousands of acres of rich lands COW
cred with fine hardwood timber are open
to the settler, WHO can obtain as much as
he desires at very reasonable figures and
upon easy terms improvements, such
as school houses and roads are being
pushed and ten years of progress Will
make an astonishing change.
The earth's rich deposits of iron ore,
clay, kaolin and mari, together with
hardwood timber, easily supply the wants
of the manufacturer and offer fine in
ducement for the location of plant or
factory
The Wisconsin Railway Co running
through this rich timber and mineral
belt, has opened it to the world by offer
ing quick and cheap transit to the prin-
cipal markets of the country.
If you are interested, complete descrip-
tons, maps and phamphlets will be sent

WOMEN POLICEMEN.
Queer Occupation of Crowd OF
Withered DANES In the Eng
lfsh Capital

London has, many queer things in the
huge extent of it's area, but none
queerer than its women guardians of
the streets, for London, unknown to
most of its inhabitants, has q police
force the like of which does not exist
in any other city on earth.
In order to see it work you must get
up very early on Friday morning and
visit Covent Garden market. There
you will see such block of traffic and
such a crowd of angry and unreason-
able drivers that you will not be sur
prised at the metropolitan police Civ
ing up the duty OF keeping order as an
impossible job. But still you will find
that things come right in the end, and
on looking to find how this is brought
about you will probably be shocked at
discovering that Coyent garden has a
police force all to itself in the shape
of some hundred or so of old women.
They dart in and out among the cars,
order the drivers to stop, or back their
horses, or move on. They shout and
swear and shake their fists and catch

giving them daily tips, while the pro-
prietors pay them fair salary.
