To Work Off Enthusiasm.

There is one rather amusing char
and that is the innate desire to make
a noise when we are wonderfully
pleased. This was absurdly illustrat.
ed not long ago by an Englishman: A
Londoner who has always been com
monty sane and sober citizen, upon
hearing of the recent declaration OF
peace in South Africa, went outside
his house and violently rang his own
door bell until he felt calmer.

aluminium ,vr rapur.

It is stated that experiments WITH
aluminium as substitute for paper
are now under way in France. 1t is
now possible to roll aluminium into
sheets four-thousandths of an inch in
thickness. in which form it weighs
less than paper. BY the adoption of
suitable machinery these sheets can
be made even thinner. and can be
used for books and writing paper. The
metal will not oxidize, is practically
fire and water proof and is indestruc-
tible by worms.

James J. Davidson of Swedesboro,

of sweet potatoes to London. One
barrel was packed in fine sawdust. an
other in coarse sawdust, and the third

are packed. All in good condition,
but those packed in coarse sawdust
were in prime shape. Englishmen

Making Artificial Rhine Wine.

The process of making artificial
Rhine wine is comewhat complicated.
Mix one pound of essence in three
gallons of proof spirits and add thirty
seven gallons OF rectified cider; then
dissolve pound of tartaric acid in a
half gallon of hot water, and add to
suit taste. About one-half of the
Rhine wine used in the United States
is made in this manner. says Pear.

Extensive Advertising.

No street in the world can boast Of
so many advertisements as Broadway,
New York. The combined length of
the two sides of Broadway is $4,000
feet. The amount of advertising on
the buildings and in shop windows is
such that 1t would take a man be-
tween eight and ten days of eight
hours each to read his way UP one
side and down the other.

The intelligent workingman
knows that the minister is much
in his own position, that the min

preach the doctrine his people
want he will have to move on to
make room for some one who will.
That is charge against the
