The unusual claims made for YAGER'S
SARSAPARILLA WITH CELERY, as to
its wonderful efficacy in curing the many
diseases caused by impure blood and weak
nerves, are substantially supported by
unsolicited testimony from many States.

PARILLA WITH CELERY for two years,

E. B. Bradley, expert penman and teacher
of Public Schools, Launa, w. Va, says:

Unshredded corn fodder is bad
material to feed under the best OF
conditions, not only because of the
difficulty in handling it, but also on
account of the part of the stalks that
the cattle will not eat. These, &C
cumulating under the animals feet
or about the fodder lot, soon become
a nuisance. Hence it is that the feed

Mr. Gibson demonstrates all this and much

consideration Of mighty import in war, as has
been proved, and of greater import still in
peace, the inexorable consideration whereon
many others absolutely depend-coal. For. if
the problem of conveying the cargo out of the
ship is SO far simplifed at Manchester, that OF
conveying it's motive power In is no less so. The
ship transfers her cargo easily to the cars which
are to move it through the country, she takes
ker new cargo easily, and then she slips a
little way down the canal to the place where the
coal trains come close alongside. and there the
coal slides into her hold with neatness and dis

MANCHESTER'S GREAT ADVANTAGE
The question now naturally arises Is not Liv-
erpool the centre OF an equally populous region?
No. ii is not There is other city In the United
Kingdom. except London, which has so vast a
population within short distance as Man
chester. The men of Manchester say that even
London is no exception; that, in spite OF the
mighty mass of London itself. it includes fewer
people within radius of forty miles than there
are dwelling within a similar distance from Man
chester. This is Manchester statement of the
condition. and is merely presented as SUCH
There is within what is called "carting distance"
OF Manchester, that is to say. fifteen miles, a
population Of about two millions.
Now, when beef and wheat, -four. are
brought from America for these people to eat, IT
is clear that they be distributed from Man
chester at a less cost than from Liverpool
whence the railway transportation is much more
expensive, on account of the greater distance. to

cargo the extra thirty-fye miles from Liverpool

over this region from Manchester for a tride

THE AURORA BORE4LIS.
London Standard.

From The London Standard
In September 1898, an borealis with an
immense red stripe was observed in a large part
OF Northern Germany. Herr Schaper, using the
data obtained at that time has come to certain
conclusions regard its extent and height above
the earth The visible bow OF light was observed
at six different places between GottInSen Hamburg
and Warnemiinde, and from those observations II
has now been calculated that it must have been
at lea seventy kilometres orty three mies) above
Iibau in Courland. A long red band of rays seen
simultaneously at Lubbock and Hirschberg. In
Silesia reached altitude of 500 kilometres (491
miles,. and another go kilometres Gl6 miles, The
light hickered very much and one part Of the rays
moved at a rapidity of seventy kilometres second.
These results agree with those which Fl6gel OBJ
legations OF this phenomenon He found that the
rays of large aurora boreas phenomena seen In
Northern Ciermany must be at an altitude OF 100
kilometres above the earth; that they often rise
TO a height $50 kilometres t+66 miles,, and that
their points glow with red light. The aurora

across and high above the ship canal.
1t is obviously part of the mission of
America to feed England. The roast beef Of
Old England comes from Chicago, and the flour
for the English mullins and the English plum
pudding comes from Minneapolis. If Americans
get little more for their commodities at
the same time that the English get them for
little less, because of their going to Manchester
instead of to Liverpool. Americans ought to be
glad of the change. and they should watch with
interest this latest effort to lead commerce into
the paths where it should go.
