THIRSTY NEW WORKERS.
Enormous Consumption of Whisky
and Other spirttuous Liquors
in the Metropolis.

The borough of Manhattan annually
consumes 100000 barrels of whisky,
which cost the consumers $2,500,0 900.
To this item must be added 10000 bar
rels of other spirits, sold for $$500,-
600; 100000 cases of champagne, for
which $55OO,OOO is paid; 100000 gal.
Ions of other wines and brandies, cost
ing $27,0O0,000, and last but not least
important, 100000 barrels of beer,
selling for $1OO,OOO,OOO. This makes a
total of $135, 5,O00,000-a sum sufficient
to create and maintain forever a great
university like Yale or Harvard. 1t
is a fact rather interesting to consid-
er that if all this beer and liquor were
put into a tank and were allowed to
run through an ordinary water tap at
the rate of gallon minute the re-
ceptacle would require SO years and SO
days to empty itself.-Pearson's Mag

81 wish to inform you that Cuticura
Remedies have put a stop to twelve
years of misery passed with my son. AS
an infant l noticed on his body Q red
spot, and treated same with different
remedies for about FIVE years, but when
the spot began to get larger l put him
under the care of doctors. Under their
treatment the disease spread to four diff
ferent parts of his body. The longer the
doctors treated him the worse it grew.
During the day it would get rough and
form ike scales. At night it would be
cracked, infamed, and badly swollen, with
terrible burning and itching. When /
think of his suffering, it nearly breaks
my heart. His screams could be heard
down stairs. The suffering of my son
made me full of misery. l had no ambi-
tion to work, to eat, nor could sleep.
One doctor told me that my sons eczema
was incurable, and gave it up for bad
job. One evening / saw an article in
the paper about the wonderful Cuticura
and decided to give it trial. tell you
that Cuticura Ointment is worth its

SENT WORKING MODEL.
Seven-Ton Pump Forwarded to Patent
Office in Washington by the
Inventor

Sometimes the rigors of patent Of
fee procedure are not without theft
humorous side A New York attorney
filed an application for improvements
in a centrifugal pump. The patent of.
fee examiner declared the invention
imperative, and demanded a working
model. The patent Office was request
Cd to send an examiner to Trenton to
inspect the machine in actual opera
tion, but this the Office refused to do.
The attorney, therefore, politely sent
q seven-ton pump to the patent office
from Trenton to satisfy skeptical ex-
aminer, according to the Scientific
American. Twenty-one men were re-
quired to get it into the examiners
office.-Railway Age.

agency of dreams. The death angel,
lowering near, seems especially liable
to cast it's dream shadow over a
sleeper.
Real trouble assailed Mrs. Joseph H.
Pineau, of Williamsport, Pa, few
weeks ago when she missed her Jewels
Believing that she had been robbed
during a spell of sickness, she had a
servant arrested on suspicion.
That night Mrs. Pineau dreamed
that she saw her jewels at the bot
tom of a basket containing china
ware. In the morning she hastened
to the closet where the basket was
explored beneath the china and there
found her gems, Just as she had seen
them in her sleep.
While hunting in the woods last
winter William Ward, of Freeland,
Pa, lost watch. 1t was two weeks
before the dream in this case revealed
the spot where the watch lay, hut
when Mr.. Ward made search there
he found 1t.
Warnings Of disaster frequently
come to sleeping persons. While trav-

a woman living in Upper Sandusky,

and two valuable horses lost with 1t.
She related the dream to several per-
sons. That day she received informa-
ton that her barn had actually burned
and the details tailed with her Wis

that his best Alderney cow was chok-

found the COW was really choking and
it died before he could effect relief.

By what mystic power are dreams
enabled to project the visual sense
through space, to lift the curtain that

Good Way OF Seeing How tho .tIo

llvery body Ia curious to see bees ac-
tually ut work. Take q rectangular
glass aquarium apd place 1t on q win.
dow sill, elevated slightly at the side
nearest the window, SO that when the
latter Is raised an inch the bees may
pass In and out. If desired, the bees
may be kept for some time In conflne-
ment by raising the aquarium an inch
on blocks and using n strip Of wire
screen cloth to prevent the bees from
escaping.
When confined the bees should be fed
q slrup OF equal parts of sugar and
water. A frame or two Of bees may
be purchased for q tri1ing sum.
Put within this glass aquarium some
rustic supports to represent projecting,
undecayed portions Of the inside OF the
hollow trunk. Keep all covered by an
opaque cloth when not observing what
Is going on within this glass bee home.
Then the bees will be free to work
and to adapt themselves to the envi-
ronment. They can suit their own
fancy about attaching combs to the
sticks; they may build %diagonally or In
any other form that they may prefer,
and they may attach the comb to sides
or ends just when and where they
think II Is necessary.
In the artificial hives tho combs are
attached only ut the edges, but In nat
ural conditions within the bee tree or
In Its counterpart, as represented by
the old fashioned box hive with opaque
sides and In our transparent inverted
aquarium, tho bees can build combs
and attach them In any way that they
see fit.
One Of the most interesting objects
for study Is to note when the bees
think 1t necessary to put out a side
support from n long comb. They seem
to believe that they are really within
a hollow tree and that 1t is likely to be
swayed by the gales. or course when
30 swayed long combs laden with
honey o with young bees would be
too much for the unyielding rigidity Of
tho upper part Of the combs. These, If
they have no side stays, would bend,
crack and be crashed against each
other.
The bees have learned this and give
the combs q flno support whenever 1t
10 necessary. They do this, 1t Is rue to
a certain extent, In the regular eight
or ten frame hive, but not with the
naturalness with which they do 1t In a
large, unobstructed space.
Not long ago a veteran beokceper
took q colony Of bees from an attic,
where they had been for many years.
