Properties of Chlorine.

Chlorine is a greenish yellow gas
with disagreeable SMELL 1t is SOL
uble In cold water, only slightly solu-
bic in hot water. 1t destroys color
in wet fabrics, and is also a strong
disinfectant.
Both of these properties are said
to be due to It's power of decomEos-
ing hydrogen compounds, such as
water, combining with the hydrogen
and liberating oxygen, which in a
nascent state oxidizes coloring mat
ter, rendering 1t colorless.
AS disinfectant 1t oxidizes the
germs of disease, and is in conse-
quence largely used for this purpose.

Chance For 500 School Ma'ams.

Five hundred teachers are needed
in New York's public schools be.
cause the course of instruction at the
Normal College has been heightened
to seven years. This was the ex-
PLANTATION of the great number OF
vacancies in Manhattan given by
superintendent Maxwell at the meet
ing of the Board of Education yes
terday. Another reason for the
shortage in teachers, he said, was
the rule of keeping the elementary
grades in the schools free from over
age pupils. This rule necessitated
separate classes for these larger pu.
pills, and there weren't enough teach
ers to take charge of them.

cure, and went to the hospital, but they
failed to cure me, and it was getting worse
all the time. Five weeks ago my wife

one cake of Cuticura Soap, and ! am
pleased to say that l am now completely
cured and well. 1t was impossible tor me
to get employment, as my face. head and

and it had worked al the way around
down the back of my neck and around to
nv throat, down my body and around the
hips. 1t itched so l would be obliged to

through which he forced his entrance

Malt coftse.ae Food.

A Russian rmy doctor attached to.
the Second Turkestan Rifle battalion,
has been making orn interesting ex-'
periments in the matter Of nourIshinrl
soldiers. DR.. Cyrillus KoliaKo adminis-,
tered to ten men for ten days malt cot.
fee as their sole beverage. with the re-
suit that their weight Increased during
the time to the extent Of 1872 Rrammes
n man. Alike experiment was made nv
giving tea to the same number Of men
Of similar constitutions and for the
same number OF days. and in their
Gaze the doctor certified a decrease of
weight per nan to the extent of 500
grammes. He then put the twenty men,
together back on tea. and thos. whose.
weight had been sc signally increased
by the-malt coffee had within ten DAVIS,
lost $50 grammes a head. The doctor
now states what IL very important to
note. namely. that his experiments have.
led him to believe that It In not merely
the nourishing attributes Of the malt
coTee which mark this decrease. but
that its effect Is mainly to increase the.
action Of the digestive organs, enabling
them to draw from all other food taken
the utmost quantity Of n~ourishment
each may contain.
