Nowhere else. it is claimed, aae The three essentials for the manufacture of iron and steel found so close together. AS a eonse- quence. Birmingham is one of the greatest producers of iron and steel in the world \ new steel mill to cost S1,500 GOO, and a rod, wire and nail mill, to cost $2,000,oo0, are now in process of erection. Birmingham makes pig iron at a cost of s6 a ton and basic steel at an additional cost of from $3 to $5 ton. Because of the low cost of production, its mills send more pig iron to foreign countries than all the rest of the United States put together. During the first six months of 1898 Birmingham shipments to foreign ports amounted to 98,000 tons of pig iron, in addition to 5000 tons of cast iron pipe. Foreign trade for 1899 will show an increase of more than 33 per cent over last year.

HAIR PLAN TING.
Successful Experiments of Turkish
 Physician.

Physician.
 A Turkish physician has been ex- perimenting successfully on the trans planting of hairs one by one to bald parts If the scalp His results seem to show that there is no inpossibility in the complete renewal of a lost head of hair by this means. The physician, Dr. Menahem Hodara, according to a foreign paper, tried his experiments in the case Of 9 disease that had re- moved part of his patients hair. His plan was to searify the bare surface and to implant thereon hairs removed from other parts of the patients head The hairs used for the purpose were trimmed with scissors at each end Some four weeks after implantation certain number of the hairs were found to have taken root, and iii 10 long time a goodly new crop was pros duced. Encouraged by these results, Dr. Hodara has since applied tha method u other cases of badness fol- lowing fayus, and he thinks himself Justified in stating that "elinically there can be no doubt as to this very curious fact-that small bundles of hair' stems cut with scissors and im- planted in the ineisions made with the searifer can take root and grow, form ing in time long and visible hairs.' By microscopic examination he has satisfied himself that after some weeks real new bulb forms at the lower end os the implanted hair. Dr. Hoda- ga's results are interesting in them- ssselves, ahd still more in the promise ; which they appear to offer of further results, undreamed of, or at any rate unmentioned, by the ingenious experi- menter. Why, asks the New York Herald, should not the same treatment be applied in cases of ordinary bald ness? Many bald men would gladly submit to have their scalps plowed and afterWard sown with new hairs if there was a reasonable hope of even a moderate harvest.

Acting under this stimu- Jus the jaIlers are stated to have forced the wretched creatures under their control to run round their cells day and night for eighty hours at 8 stretch, heavy whips being used to keep the victims awake. The officials are also said to have deprived them Of all food save salt stock fish and ardent spirits, confession being the price of glass of water. Not a few paid it, slaked their thirst, and, it is contend ed, were summarily shot. II is further alleged that wedges wore driven under the nails Of the prisoners with ham, mers and allowed to remain until the nails slougbed away Even more nor. rible mutilations are stated lot to have been uncommon.

Nabs with Ease.
 A few New Guinea oockatoos. n rare species in this latitude, have been brought to Chicago recently and have created much interest by tieir odd ap- Daarance and actions. They are as large as pAeasants and let black in color. The biTd is remarkable. for it's immensely strong bl1 and the clever manner ! which t is used. Tho bill is as hard as steel and the uBnerz part has q deep notch in 1t, Th9 favorite food Of this eoekatoo is tha kernel of the canary nut, but there is wonderful ingenuity requiredzt get ct it, for the nut is something like a Hragil nut, but t is ten times as hard. h fact, requires the blow Of | heavy bama

 From the Spokane Review The lanG-eontes5 case which . family l of nlce played g prominent part has been decided on the appeal to =Binger Hermann. commissioner of the gen. eral land office Washington. The fodents are not mentioned in the deci- sion, but the man whom it was claimed allowed the mice to establish resi- dence in lis bed is allowed to retain possession Of his homestead, the rul ihg of the local land office being re- yersed and the contest dismissed. 4 peculiar feature of the case is that when tie family of mice was first men tioned t vas tended that their presence in the bed of the entIyman argued n abandonment of the home stead, and tba local land office appar- entity took the same view Of the mat. Ter. But when the decision was ap pealed from it Was set up that the presence of= the nice Was an argument n favor 9f the haa4esJ8ader. Fred tzfntt was the entfyfaan, having taken D a homestead near Davenport three .5=szsfs aS9.

From this de- eision Gratl had sixty days in which to file an appeal to the commissioner at Washington. The appeal was filed by Leo Walton, attorney for Grutt.

AMONG the many arguments advanced
fc saadjng lunatic asylum elsewhere
tn Al The almshouse was that of inability
to "a the latter place, owing to poor
trs s.srvice. This was dwelt upon with
&C 4, = able emphasis In another column
the committee in charge of this matter
advermses for bids for erecting building
on one Of three sites, among them being
farm Lear Columbus. The committee
evidently thinks the site worthy of con-
sideration, but such conclusion must have
been arrived at on the question of site
alone, for of all the places with mean
train service Columbus takes the entire
bakery and it Is an open secret that the
railroad people would like to abandon all
of it. The trains that arrive at the station
do not exceed the number to New Lisbon
and the opponents of building at the lat
ter site thought they were wofully scarce.
The advocates of New Lisbon argued that
there was ample service to Pemberton,
only three miles distant, but the Columbus
advocates were sure this would not do.
Now, it is beyond the shadow of doubt
that if the limited train service to New
Lisbon is reasonable objection to build
ing there it is an absolute settler as regards
Columbus This idea is in connection
Will LIE Ill gumcuts VI JIG oppoucnbs w
New Lisbon, who laid greater stress on the
railroad matter than on others of more
Importance. If that is to be a principal
factor the site between Mount Holly and
Burlington is decidedly the best, yet we
are not prepared to advocate that place.
The proposition of the committee that
prospective contractors must figure on all
three sites is good move and will have
much to do with deciding the point as
the difference in cost of hauling materials
to the several places named will be a fac
tor in the matter.

they shared the fame of the
beautiful novelties.
Everything that clings is
good. Paris stuhs of silk

and nameless fabrics as sheer
and clinging as wells.
The finest silk-and-wool ma
terial in the world is made
right here in Philadelphia, and
we know it as well as though
it were made in China. 1t is
called Lansdowne here; but
all Europe and America call
it ideal.
other makers nave tried to
make Lansdowne, but without
avail, and the name "Lans-
downe" is copyrighted, so that
when you buy Lansdowne you
buy Lansdowne.

At this time of the year cold is very
easily contracted, and if allowed to run its
course without the aid of some reliable
medicine is liable to result in that dread
disease, pneumonia. There is no better
