Arrangements have been made between
the Columbia Railway Company and the
Chesapeake Beach Railway Company by
which express matter and freight of less
than carload quantity will be handed from
a station which has been established at 10Th

Effects OF science and Chemistry on the
Excellence OF the Product.

Effects OF science and Chemistry on the
Excellence OF the Product.
The latest developments Of science
and chemistry have enormously in
creased the cardymaker's facilities and
proportionately increased the excel.
lence Of his product. The old.time
caudymakers, with a reputation 10
maintain, used pure materials and
kept up their standard as 10 uniform
ness of quality. The modern candy.
maker has not only the palate but the
eye OF his customer TO consider. The
sense Of beauty must be pleased as
we'll as the taste il maker means TO
succeed. The various stages are dis
tinguished by precision, accuracy and
scrupulous neatness. Ii the bonbop
dipper dips her nuts too deep in the
cream they are spoiled for the best
quality, and if the girl Who arranges
little awry the value OF the box is i'm
paired. Excellence in this depart.
ment is carefully fostered, and in
some factories prizes are given for the
best arrangement Of five or ten pound
boxes, 10 be used as samples for the
retail dealers 10 order from. The il.
iustry now gives employment 10 an
immense number of women apd girls,
by whom all the asserting, packing,
finishing, tying on of ribbons and af.
ixing Of pictures 20 the outside OF
boxes are done. Girls who show
marked ability have an excellen,
chance OF promotion outside of the fac.
tory work. They are often promoted
TO RESPONSIBLE positions in retail shops,
OF with caterers, who are constantly
on the lookout for such women. AZ
this moment the supply of candy is
not nearly equal to the demand. Two
large candy factories, which can turn
out eight to ten tons of candy per day.
have been working day and hall
spells every working day for months.
The reason of this is that caudy manu-.
lecturers have never found skilled
,andymakers so difficult TO ge. as at
present. The candy of to-day is es.
sentially pure aud wholesome. Sugar
is so cheap that it does not pay TO sub
stitute any other material for it. In
former days gum arabic was the Wis
sous ingredient used in the manuiac-
sure OF candy; now its place is taken
by glucose. In fact, the low price OF
sugar and the cheapness of glucose
have largely contributed 10 the re.
duced cost of sweets. Candy maru-
iacture comprises two general classes:
The high.class confectionery which
sells at fifty cents to 81 apound, which
IS made mostly for the trade in large
centers. being soft and otherwise un.
tit for shipping; the other, which com
prises the bulk Of the product of the
factories, is adapted for the trade OF
the whole country as well as small cen
ters and sells at low price compared
with ten years ago-fully fifty per
cent. less.

Experiments IN Feeding Horses.

In 1881 Muntz conducted expert
ments with horses belonging 10 the
Paris Omnibus Company, the first
OF which was with 362 horses, fed
9.5 pounds oats, 6.7 pounds corn,
? l pounds beans, IL pounds bran,
l0.4 pounds hay and ia pounds
straw daily. The average weight of
the horses remained the same during
the experiment; the amount of work
done did not change, showing that
the ration met the requirements OF
the animals. In the second series
more corn and less oats were fed, the
ration being 6.S pounds oats, OF
pounds corn. 3.3 pounds beans, 9
pound bran, &C pounds hay, and l3. 2
pounds straw. The ANIMALS gained
in weight on this ration, the work re-
naming the same as before.

German BLONDES aud Brunettes.

the blonde and brunette types aud
their distribution throughout the
German Empire. The observations
were confined TO school children, G..

For purposes of classification only
those that had blue eyes and fair hcir
and skin were counted as blondes,
and those whose eyes, hair and skin
were all dark as brunettes.
All others for example, children
with dark eyes and light hair or with
blue eyes and dark hair and skim
were put in n third or mixed" class.
In tho Empire as whole the
blondes were found 10 number 81 8
per cent, the brunettes IA per cent.
and the mixed types 54.2 per cent.
In some districts the preponderance
Of the blonde element was much more
marked-espccially in a part OF the
Grand Duchy OF Oldenburg, where
there We're only per cent. OF pure

The effect Of the brunette Roman
element was marked distinctly in the
