MUMMIES MADE TO LOOK NATURAL.
And now here Is q new accomplishment Of
the scientist. He has discovered how to treat
q mummy 50 that it will take the appear
auc.a that 4 had when life left the body. Sci
entists have pointed out that bodies which have
shrunken as Il result of remaining il alcohol
return 10 their normal form when they are i'm
mersed in u solution Of per cenr caustic pot
ash. Taxing his from this English SCI
enlist conceived the idea Of bringing about the
Te1uVeQescenCe of muLasnies. and his first ef-
4CTLs were crowned with success. He had TO
carry on the process with & good deal of pru
dence. bat he succeeded. He gave the mum
mics bath, which lasted from twelve to forty
eight hours. in the potash and then immersed the
body IN water. The dried up figures then soaked
up the water and swelled more or less accord
ing 10 Inc time that they could remain there
without decGmposing 4 succeeding bath in
1oIInaine seems TO remove this last danger.

The Chattanooga Times draws a conn parsson between men and women in politics not very favorably to the for- msr. "one thing" it says. may bs noted as favorable difference between the woman and the man in politics. The former has 1t out in one grand parade and at few rallies. while the latter spends the most of his time at home explaining that the lateness of the hour he gets home at night, beginning when the campaign opens and not closing for several days after the election. is due to the fact of his importance as con- suiting factor in the success of his party. The recording angel. it is said, may sometimes blot out an oath with tear. but we have no intimation that she has ever even blurred any one of the million of lies told by blathering hypoefite who goes home at o'clock in the morning and lays it on the party seryice.~

A GREAT NEED.

Under the heading. "The South Needs Canning Factories" The chattanooga Tradssman of July 1. says:
 AS the fruit and vegetable crops of the South this year have reached irnense proportions, more attention has taken place in putting these crops on the market and the need of canning factories to prevent that waste
 where a canning factory would not pay handsomely and 1t Is the one great need just now that will enable fruit raisers and the truck growers to real some of the best sections that are adapted to fruit and vegetables. these valuable crops are entirely neglected because no local markets are at hand while the country roads prevent long hauling, and so the farmers in these localities are losing where the. could tory was established convenient to their products.
 But in those sections where fruits are raised extensively the waste that to build and operate canning factory and the South could then more nearly receive fair returns for what it ratses so bounteously. And then such factor ies can be established by the fermers themselves and thus would be doubly beneficial. Beside the profits that
  there would he a canning profit added and the farmers would not be paying othe CTS to prepare and market their own product.
 The commercial bodies in all fruit and vegetable portions of the South can very greatly aid in this direction and they sBould do so without delay.
 We commend this article to our read CTS because 1t treats of matter of ai- most vital interest to the South. and to our State especially. The older people can remember the time when such things as canned fruits and vegetables were practically unknown. Perhaps one might buy a can or box of fish at the stores. but that was about all that was to be had in that line.
 It Is very different now. for almost eevry fruit or vegetable known to the household can be had in this form. Even sweet potatoes. among the last of our vegetables to be thus treated. can now be had in cans and in good condi-

Hardship Upon Parenls.

Tri-CitleS Daily.
 The State Text Book Commiss icn has just awarded contracts for the books to be used in the public schools of Alabama next session. Nearly all the books. or about SS per cent are to be new ones.
 This will work a hardship on the parents of public school pupils, and there seems to be little Justification Tor the change. More consideration should be shown by the Commission for the poor people of the State, who will be compelled to dig deep into their pocKets to purchase the books
 It will be a hard matter to convince the peopie that it is necessary to change text books every term or two terms. New text books are not so much needed as are teachers who will ins ct upon thoroughness on the part of pu- pills in mastering what is contained in the books they are already studying Thoroughness in the instruction of pupils and not new text books. Is the crying need Of Alabama just now.

Clement E. Shorter in The Sketch.
 I have never denied the intellectual accomplishment of George Eliot do not quarrel with those who find her later hooks amusing as well as edlfy- ing. I do not quarrel with friends who. far from finding these books dull have come to the conclusion that they are altogether alive. I only demur to the attempt that has been made to place George Eliot on pedestal to which she could never have any possible right. The attempt to rank her with our four incompatible masters of Eng fish hction-Henry Fielding. Jane Aus ten, Walter Scott and Charles Dickens --is to me an absolute negatIon of crit Icism.

The Congregational contest in this dis triet promises to be a warm and inter. esting one. It is no disparagement to any of the contestants to say that no new and untried man can do as much and as good work for his State and his constituents as Colonel Wiley was do- ing. Both qualifications and experi- ence are needed to do good work in that capacity, and however well quail fled Colonel wiley's successor may be, he cannot hope to take up and con- tinue the work as it was being done.

If 1t were almost any other man in the country but Hearst. one might sup- pose that he would subside. so far as his contest for Mayor of New York is concerned. The recount clearly shows that his claim of having been counted out was fraud. and now that the court has formally decided that Me- cieIlan was elected. Mr. Hearst should have no more to say on the subject. but no one can forecast what he will do.

ton. And yet almost every can or tin" as our English brethren call them. bears the label and trade mark of some establishment North of us. From New England. the Middle states and the great West come the cans by nnii- lions and car loads. and nearly all os them contain something that we raise here at home. and suffer to so largely to waste.
 There is such thing as too much conservatism. and we have an exanpie of it in this connection. We have too long been content to rely on cotton for the most part and depend on other sections for almost everything else. They have different way of doing things up North. Not only do they be- lisve in growing everything necessary for human existence. that win grow up there. but they also believe in taking care of what they raise and putting 1t in form for future use. What ts not needed in its fresh state for home con- sumption is put up so that it will keep almost indefinitely. and much of it-- perhaps the greater portion--is sent down South for us to buy and eat In most cases we pay our monsy for can- ned food that has been shipped hun dreds of miles. and fs just what we raise. or could raise, at home, and could put up in cans as well and as cheaply as 1t can be done elsewhere. It is business up there and poor econ omy down here.
 Take Alabama as 'horrid example" We all know that much of the fruit and vegetable crop raised in any part of the State goes to waste. It cannot all be sold while fresh. and most Of 1t cannot be kept for future use as one can keep corn or wheat. If there were no lack Of canning facilities. not only would the material now lost bring in handsome profit to the growers, but that fact would encourage ard stimulate diversified farming. truck growing and fruit-raising. all Of which would be both good sense and good business.
 The great improvements and ad- vancements that have been made in the canning industry of late years have largely lessened the cost of starting q canning factory. Not merely the large cities. but each town and village, and each popuious and thriving community can have such an industry. just as every community throussout the eot- ton regIon has it's cotton gins. and just as they have cane mills and refinsries in the sugar-eans region. As The Tradesman remarks. the annual waste in any vegetable and fruit sections of the South would be moro than sui. fieient to build and operate q canning factory" And we also agree with it that the commercial bodies throughout the South can and should encourage and facilitate such movement. To quote the optimistic Colonel sellers. There's millions in it."
