We want light" was the cry heard
on the Bowdoin College campus. about
$50 p. NJ. Tuesday. On account of the
scarcity of coal the college electric light
plant has been obliged to shut down.
and the lights are now furnished by the
town plant. On account of the expense
thus incurred the lights are not turned
on until it is fairly dark. As a result
there are several hours each day when
the students are unable to study. The
students are not only suffering for
want of light. but at times add a cry
for heat. it being almost impossible to
heat the buildings with the amount of
coal on hand. Thus far there has been
little suffering among the poor. as there
is a plentiful supply of wood on hand.

A Great Attraction.

Now is the time Boston is especially
worthy OF a visit. One Of the chiet attrac
tions of this city, that boasts of SO
many, is the Mechanics Fair. which is
now open. Beginning Sept. %, for six
weeks, this great industrial exhibition
will hold for:h. 1t is the first time in
four years that there has been a Mechan-
les Fair. Never before in the history OF
the Mechanics Charitable Association
has such an interesting and extensive
eXhi bit been brought together.
Bes des the most modern and compli'
Gated machinery and the products OF
same, all of which is an education in
itse,t there may be seen this year va
riety of delightful entertainments, won
derul spectacular reproductions and
other attractions, TO which the low cost
of 25 cents admits TO all. Undoubtedly
ore of the cbiel attractions OF the present
iair will be the exhibit held under the
auspices of the Women 5 Industrial Union
whereby the proverbial skill OF the New
England woman will be amply eXempli
fed. Most railroads are making special
rates to Boston on account of this eXhi
bitjon, and we would advise our readers
to make inquiries Of their local agent ii
regard to such particulars.

A new and important use for Refined
Paraffine Wax seems to have been dis
covered by prominent resident of Ohio,
living near Lancaster, who had two trees
badly damaged by storm, one being
maple and the other an apple. In each
case a large limb was broken down
from the trunk, but still attached to it,
The limbs were propped up and fastened
S, curely with straps, very much as a
broken leg might be fastened securely
with spllnts, and then melted refined
wax poured into and over all the
cracks. The surgical operation" was
entirely successful. The Paraffine pre-.
vented the escape of the sap, kept out the
rain and moisture which would have
rotted the trees, prevented the depreda-
ton of insects, and the limbs seem thus
Tar to be perfectly re-attached to the
trees.
