A Remedy for Seasickness.

1t has been observed thatthe unpleas-
ant sensations when on board of a ship
come on usually as the vessel sinks
down into the trough of the sea. The
same sensation is felt in an elevator as
it starts on its downward trip. A
simple remedy to overcome this trouble
is recommended by o. Dornbluth: Just
ms the vessel sinks one should take a
long breath and hold it for a few mo-
ments. This initiates the abdomen and
fixes the diaphragm, and if continued
for some time is etiectual in keeping
away the unpleasant nauseous sensat-
ions. AS a preliminary treatment he
also recommends the daily evening
administration for a week previ-
Gus to embarkatIon of fifteen to forty
grains of sodium bromide. The diet
and the time of taking food should not
vary from that to which the individual
is decentralization Meas.

INTERSTATE FAIR AT TRENTON.
September rs, 40 and 80, October
and 2.

The great Interstate Fair will be
held on September %, 20 and 30, Oct
ober | and 2, on the Fair grounds, three
miles east of Trenton, N. j., on the
New York Division of the Pennsylvania
Railroad.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
will sell excursion tickets to the Fair
grounds, including coupon ofadmission,
at greatly reduced rates from stations
within a wide radius, and special trains
over the New York, Belvidere and
Amhoy Divisions will be run through
to the grounds, thus avoiding street
car transfer.
A. in previous years, every depart,
ment will be replete with superior and
instructive displays. The blooded stock
exhibit will be particularly fine, and
the daily programme of races contains
the speediest classes obtainable. The
management of the Fair has put forth
extraordinary efforts tomake this years
exhibition even greater than last years
record-breaking display.

QUEER FOOD IN EUROPE.
Black Rubber and SILK Chopped Up
to Simulate TrufHes.

In a report on the subject of food
adulteration in Europe, Consul General
Guenther at Frankfort makes the fol
lowing statements:
An article on the adulteration of food
products is going the rounds of tie
German press. 1t is stated, for in
stance, that an ordinary liver patty is
made into fine "Strassburger" pate de
foie gras goose liver patty by means
of borax OF salicylic acid and of finely
chopped and cleverly distributed pieces
of black silk, representing truff1es.
Cosmos, a German paper, guarantees
the fact hat under the label of
canned Holsters the soft parts of the
cuttlefish and crabs are sold.
In Paris snails are of late very popu-
lar, and the adulterators mix them
with lungs of cattle and horses. Even
entirely artificial snails are manufae-
tured. The shells, recoated with fat
and slime, are filed with lung n then
sold as Burgundy" snails.
Lovers of fresh rooster combs are I'M
posed upon by a substitute cut out Of
hogs intestines.
Chopped artificial truffies are made
of black rubber. silk or softened leath-
er, and even whole truflies are made
out of roasted potatoes, which are given
a peculiar flavor by adding ether. They
are said to sell well.
Fish spoiled in spite of ice and borax
is treated with salts of zinc, aluminium
and other metals. Rubbing the fish
with yaseline to give it a fresh look
and coloring the gills with fresh blood
or eosin-a coal tar color-is resorted
to. The latter is also used to intensity
the red color of inferior crabs.
Imparting a g%reenish color to oysters
is another adulteration. An oyster re-
quires about one month in the beds to
acquire the greenish color. AS this is
too long a time the dealers help them
along with an artificial color
The chemists in the Paris municipal
laboratories have shown that tomato
jelly is adulterated with turnips, and
powdered pepper contains a large add
mixture of powdered hard tack.-Wash-
ington Star.

COMMISSIONER OF DEEDS.
Pleased with the Nominations.

1t is known here that Governor Muir
phy is pleased with the result of the
primary elections in both Essex II
Cape MAY counties. That he is gratified
wv the nominations for the Assembly
in Essex county is no secret. 1t was
proclaimed here to-day that a more III
dependent set of Republican candidates
for the Assembly had not been-Aamed
in that county in many a long day.
The nomination ofAssemblyman Cresse
for State senator in Cape May county
is not only pleasing TO Governor Muir
ply, but his pleasure is very largely
shared by Republicans all over the
state. The fact that Senator Hand,
who was defeated for the nomination,
has not vet declared that he will sup
port Mr.. Crosse or the Republican ticket,
in part or as a whole, is lot causing
alarm amongSouth Jersey Republicans.
State Comptroller Morgan, who has
long been regarded as a prudent and
safe adviser in South Jersey politics,
said that he had no doubt of the cleo
ton of Mr.. Crosse and of the Republi-
can candidate for the Assembly, J. M.
f.. Hildreth. Ex-senator Stokes said
that the Republicans of Cape May had
never within his knowledge nominated
a better ticket than that made by them
last week. State Assessor Baird fully
reiterated the views of Mr.. Morgan and
Mr.. Stokes, and enthusiastically said
that South Jersey would be all in line
for the Republican ticket next Novem-
Der.
This is the sort of comment on Cape
May county that Republicans over the
state will be glad to hear from such
we'll known party men as Stokes, Nor
gan and Baird, especially so inasmuch
as the Democrats have been all along
and still are proclaiming that Cape
May belongs to us this year.-Trenton
correspondent of the NeaD York Tribune.

Sour Stomach.

When the quantity of food taken is
too large or the quality too rich, sour
stomach is likely to follow, and espe-
cially so if the digestion has been
weakened by constipation. Eat slowly
andnot too freely ofeasily digesled food.
Masticate the food thoroughly. Let
five hours elapse between meals, and
when you feel a fullness and weight in
the region of the stomach after eating,
take Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver
Tablets and the sour stomach may be
avoided. For sale 10y Cohen Bros,

The Trenton Exhibition.

Every detail for the opening of the
| Interstate Fair, Monday, September
| 2Sth, at Trenton, n. j. has been COM
pleted by Secretary Mahlon II. Mar
gerum. Entries in every department
indicate q class of exhibits which will
90 to make the coming exhibition the
greatest one of the sixteen given by the
Association.
There will be many new features
this year, and such an amount OF money
has been spent to secure tirst-class at
fractions that everything will be of a
genteel and superior character.
Special attention has been paid to
the fancy work, farmers exhibits, live
stock department and that devoted to
farming implements. While efforts
have been made which have raised the
standard in these classes of exhibits,
time and money have not been spared
to secure the largest and greatest pro-
gram OF speed events to be seen on any
race track in America.
To date there have been two humid
red and thirty-seven horses entered III
the various class and stake races. This
entry list has resulted in the necessity
of the erection of sixty new speed-horse
stables. There are three classes yet to
fill and when the entries for these have
been received the total number of
horses entered will be raised at least
thirty.
The racing program will comprise
twenty-one classes, with purses ranging
from $500 to 81 900. The valuable priz-
es of cash will be competed for every
day of the Fair. Besides the stake
races there will be eighteen class events
during the week, in which the fastest
horses of the year will start.
The special attraction of the week III
the speed department will be the tri-
State double-team race, which will be
run Thursday. In this race the fastest
teams of Pennsylvania, New Jersey
and New York have been entered.
The entries number six, and the own
ers of the horses are Frank Bower, of
Philadelphia; G. e. Titman, of Phila-
delphia; William mcfarland, ofPhila-
delphia; ID. p. S. Nichol, of Philadel-
phia; f. S. Woodward, of Camden and
Theodore l.. Arthur, of Brooklyn.
The Fair grounds are in excellent
shape. All of the old buildings have
been re-painted and several new ones
have been erected. Special trains will
be run on all railroads to the Fair
grounds, and there will be reduced
rates.
