THE BEER FAMINE.

AS a tear from his eye he wipes,
But he doesn't fret it's safe to bet,
For there's never a dearth of swipes
Beer no more" cries the Portuguese,
And then with decision brisk
''Gooda da beer, but if no have got,
Giva da glass of whisk"
Beer all out, hip! hip, hurrahv,
The news makes the milkman jump
For he sees chance for q cent advance
And he's just repaired his pump.
Bleer all dunk, says the artless Chink
And gladly the tidings hears

For he scenteth afar time of ease

ITCHING PILES.
From the Melbourne Age.

From the Melbourne Age.
Ever have any irritation of the skin?
There are many forms of it, any Of
them bad enough to tax your patience.
Hemorrhoid, a plague Of the night; no
rest for the sufferer from that COM
plant. Eczema, too; hives don't sound
dangerous, but they cause much mis-
cry to those unfortunate enough to be
troubled with them. Doan's Ointment
is "a wonder" for any such trouble.
Any troublesome irritation of the skin
can't resist it's healing, soothing influ-
ence. Lots of Honolulu people know
this now.
Mr.. H. Ryall, of No. IL, Grosvenor
ST., South Yarra, is very old resi-
dent of Melbourne. He states:
For some considerable time 1 have
been sufferer from that annoying
complaint known as irritating piles
At times the irritation was very an
noying, especially at night, and in the
warm weather. l applied some of
Doan's Ointment which had obtained
and l am pleased to say that it gave
me the desired relief from this annoy
ing disease.
Doan's Ointment is splendid in all
diseases of the skin: Eczema, piles
hives, insect bites, sores, chilblains
etc. 1t is perfectly safe and very eff
fective. Very frequently two or three
boxes have made a complete cure OF
chronic cases that have not yielded to
other remedies for years.

that does not decay readily and does
not dissolve in water. So far but one
material has been discovered that full
fills all the condl tions. That is gutta
percha, a gum that is easily worked
and whose only drawback is its scar

about $50 degrees Fahrenheit it becomes
very soft and plastic. so that 1t can

heated gum is forced through a cylin-
der surrounding the core and as the
core is drawn through a die-piece al
thin layer Of gutta percha is left on it.
This is repeated as often as is required
and the core is thus covered with a
series OF gutta percha jackets that ex-
tend without break or seam from end
to end, and, from the electrical stand
point, the cable is done. In this con-
dition it would be exposed to many
mishaps that might injure the envel-
ope and destroy the working of the
cable, SO a sheathing is put around it.

Where Land Is Most Valuable.


p, The growth Of the land values is
one of the most wonderful phenomena
of the age. Every inch of land be-
tween King Williams statue and
Trinity square, London, cost $50 los,
OR at the rate Of e191, 00o,0 900 per acre
beyond all doubt the highest price
ever paid in England for land. The
Southeastern Railway company has
asked at the rate of s65 100000 per
acre forN a piece OF ground in Ber-
n1ondsey, which had depth Of six
teen feet only. The demand was SO
.exorbitant that: even railway COM
pany had to pause, finally declining
to purchase. In the year 1880 land In

Finnish and Russian Butter.,

.
From time immemorable the large
towns in Russia. especially Moscow
and st: Petersburg, have received their
supply Of table butter from Finland,
while the home production Of Russian
butter, being Of coarse and altogether
most inferior quality, was only used
for pastry purposes, ships provision
ing, and the like, but OF late years this
has changed entirely, says one OF our
Continental exchanges. The develop
ment Of the Russian dairy industry is
progressing rapidly while at the same
time the Finnish butter finds a ready
sale in England, along side the DAN
ish and Swedish, although at a few
shillings lower price. Dairying in
Russia proper 1--WE except the Baltic
provinces, where the dairy industry is

the Danish system is about % years
old, and the diaries are mostly situat-
ed in the districts of Jaroslaw, ,Wolog-
da, Kostronna, liver and SmoIensko.
The butter from these districts is im-
proving every year in quality, and
finds a ready sale at good prices, both
in Russia and abroad, namely in Ger
many, Denmark and Great Britain.
