 There is no kind of beer brewed in this country that is superior to that of Bartholomay's Rochester lager, which is handled by M. J. Maloney. This brewing is pure in every partic- ular as certified to by analytical chemists, and is not made up of the poisonous compound with which some other beers are compounded and which do more to injure the system of it's consumer than the deadly drugs. If you use a beverage, use only the best and purest that the market af- lords. You can easily attest the vir- tues of the Bartholomay brand by ordering case of it, also one of Miles ale.

The first successful attempt to pro- duce steerable balloon was made twenty eight years ago to-day, when M. Renard made an ascent in his new c1gar=shaped airship, near Paris. The motive power was electricity, stored in accumulators. On the day set for the trial flight, Aug. g. 1884, the weather was calm, with hardly a breath of air stirring, and under these ideal conditions M Renard and his companion, Krobs. set forth on their aerial voyage The airship answered it's helm perfectly and sailed with the wind 8 distance of two and a half miles, then turned and sailed against the wind and landed safely at the ex- act point of setting out.

A novel method Of identifying the
work of candidates is employed in civil
service examinations in Anam. The
examination itself somewhat resembles
similar examinations In China. Each
student squats in his little hut while
he works at the tests provided to show
his literary taste and intelligence. The
subject during the last examinations
was the teachings Of Confucius, and
the candidates prepared moral essays
or commentaries. The examination
lasts fifty hours. At the end OF the
days work each candidate, when pre-
pairing his papers for handing in, tears
and retains little piece from the first
sheet. When the best compositions
