Practical Chemistry.

Chemistry has played a large part
recently in the improvement of
metallurgical operations. Formerly
at gold mines the tailings thrown
aside held considerable quantity
of gold, but could not be worked by
the ordinary processes, so were piled
mountain high and disregarded until
chemists discovered that the gold was
soluble in potassium cyanide, and
that by washing in very weak solu-
ton of potassium cyanide the failing
gold could be proitably separated
from the refuse. The same process
has led to the working of lowgrade
ores running 81 or SIS to the ton,
which could not be proftably worked
by the ordinary mining processes.
The silver contained in lead has
been similarly freed and utilized
It was found by chemists that when
the melted lead was mixed with zinc
the silver formed an alloy with the
zinc and f1oated to the surface.
When this mass was taken from the
lead and heated in a retort, the zinc,
being volatile, was driven off and left
a deposit so rich in silver that it was
easily purified.

AT BREAK OF DAY.

At break of day the birds all sing,
And soar on low or lofty wing
To try the ambient air.
IT'S then the timid birds are tame,
IT'S then their feathers are afiame,
IT'S then they have no care.
At break of day each vine and tree
Is fringed with frost-like fl.gree,
And flowers open fair;
The rainbow on the grass is saen,
And never vas there any Quea4
SO rich in diamonds rare.
At break of day towards Orient
Is many wistful vision bent
To see the prospect change.
II is as if a foreign land
Came floating in on every hand,
So wonderful and strange.
We see at early dawn Of day
Things all too glorious to stay
They vanish from our sight.
Life's early morning lamp shines low
AS higher up LIES sun doth go,
Till comes the darkening night.

Artificial Electric Fountains.

An Italian contemporary describes
at some length the artificial electric
fountains which M. G. Trouve has
lately erected. He uses glass beads,
rice, small culluloid balls or othes
round or variously shaped small solid
bodies and a jet of air, blown by a
centrifugal pump, as a means for
keeping them in motion. When these
objects are projected through a jet
in the usual way by a stream of air
and then Illuminated magnificent
effects, comparable to those of the
electric fountain, are produced. AS
the apparatus required is small and the
material is used over and over again
some use may be found for it in
luxurious interiors and for stage or
spectacular decorations. The color
and illumination, as well as the shape
and arrangement Of jets, can, of
course, be varied as easily with
fountains of rice or glass beads as
with fountains of water.

CouIdn't Wear Shoes.

Sumpter, ILL.,, Sept 9.-Mrs. J. B..
Flanagan of this place had suffered
with Dropsy for fifteen years. She was
so very bad that for the last three years
she has not been able to wear her shoes.
She had doctored all the time, but was
gradually getting worse.
Last winter Mr.. Flanagan, who was
very much discouraged, called for some
medicine at Mr.. j. J. Dale's drug store
in Carmi. Mr.. Dale persuaded him to
have his wife try Dodd's Kidney Pills,
and he bought six boxes. His wife
used five out of the six, before she was
entirely cured. She is now as sound
and we'll as ever she was, completely
restored to health, and free from any
symptom whatever of Dropsy.
To say that Mrs. Flanagan is pleased
at her wonderful deliyerance does not
half express her feelings, and she and
Mr.. Flanagan are loud in their praises
of Dodd's Kidney Pills, and of Mr.. Dale
for recommending this wonderful rem
edy to them.
The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured Mrs. Flanagan of such a severe
case of Dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up, has made them the most
talked of remedy ever known in White
County.

Easy Come, Easy Go.

The man who creeps along bent over,
with his spinal column feeling In
condition to snap like pipestem at any
minute, would readily give great deal
to get out of his dilemma, and yet this
is only the commonest form by which
lumbago seizes ON and twists out OF
shape the muscles of the back. This is
commonly known as backache, crick
in the back, but by whatever name it
may be known, and however bad it may
be, ten minutes vigorous rubbing with
st. Jacobs Oil on the afflicted part will
drive out the trouble and completely
restore. It is a thing SO easily caught
it may be wondered at why there Is not
more Of it, but because it is so easily
cured by ST. Jacobs Oil may be the.
very reason that we hear so little Of it.

A METHODIST BISHOP GIVES
PE-RU-NA GREAT CREDIT.

For The Famous CdtdTTh
Remedy. Pe-ru-na.

The day was when men of prominence hes
tated to give their testimonials 10 proprie-
tary medicines for publication. This, re-
mains true to-day of most proprietary medi-

famous, its merits are known to so many
people-of high and low station that none bee

ing Peruna.
The following letters from pastors who ass
Peruna speak for themselves:
Rev. E. G. Smith, pastor of the Preshy
terian Church, of Greensboro, GA, writes:
My little boy had been suffering for sonle
time with catarrh Of the lower bowels 9th
er remedies had failed, but after taking TIVE
bottles of Peruna the trouble almost entirely
disappeared. For this special malady com
slider it we'll nigh a specific. Rev. E. g.
Smith.
Rev. A. S. Vaughn, Eureka Springs, Ark,
says: 81 had been Frustrated by congestivs
chills and was almost dead: as soon as able
to be about, I commenced the use Of Peruua-
took FIVE bottles; my strength returned rap
idly and / am now enjoying nay usual
health. Rev. A. S. Vaughn.
If you do not derive prompt and satisfae-
tory results from the use Of Peruna, write
at once to DR.. Hartman, giving a full state
ment of your case and he will be pleased 80
give you his valuable advice gratis.

Almost as the train was on the point
of starting he saw a slight figure ap-
pear on the platform. 1t was Joan,

carriage.

He reached out, and grasping it

1t was near nine the same evening,
and in the sitting room Of the little
house Joan was sitting alone, very
white. very miserable. Presently the
clock struck the hour, and as the last
chime died away the door opened and
a man entered the door quietly. He
looked tired and pale, but a quick light
came into his eyes as he saw the girl.
He came straight to her.
There was no Joan in the big
worldn' he said, simply. Il only real
lied it this morning."
She looked at him, startled, then as
their eyes met in swift understanding,
swift joy ran through her.
Your dreams?" she whispered.
For the moment was mad enough
to think I could realize them at the ex-
pense Of my self-respect!' he cried Bit
terly. Thank God, awoke in time. y
But the wonderful life you have
ALWAYS longed for?' she murmured.
''An empty shell, without the one
away, JOAN" he whispered pleadingly.
Let me succeed for just once!'
She smiled back at him through her
mist of tears. The man had not come
back in vain.
