MONETARY CONFERENCE.
Indications That Great Britain Will Be Represented.
NEW YORK, July 30.—A special from Washington says that official information just received in that city indicates that Great Britain will consent to join in an international monetary conference, to be held in that city next winter.
This information is a complete confirmation of the cable dispatch from London, published a few days ago, which stated that Great Britain's representatives had received the proposition of the United States envoy more favorably than had been expected.
The statement received indicates that the mission of Special Envoys Stevenson, Payne and Wolcott will be so far successful as to insure the meeting of another international monetary conference.
Though Great Britain has not yet made an official response to the proposition of the United States envoy, information has been given to representatives of this government that England will soon consent to participate in an international conference in Washington. This report comes through official channels, and gives much satisfaction to those who hope an international agreement is possible.
Reports received from the special envoys also state that their reception in France was far more favorable than the press reports indicated at the time of their visit, and that France practically accepted the proposal to join in a conference and abide by its results provided Great Britain could be induced to do likewise.
POPCORN STORY
Tale That Promised to Take the Kansas Lie Prize.
SUMMERFIELD, Kan., July 29.—An amusing "best Kansas lie" contest has been going around the state, and the editor of the local paper here claims the laurel wreath because he wrote the following:
"A Kansas farmer planted his farm in popcorn and gathered it into his barn. The barn took fire, the corn popped and filled a ten-acre field. His old mare, thinking it a snowstorm, lay down and frose to death."
Mr. F. D. Coburn, secretary of agriculture for Kansas, who lives at Topeka and has made an elaborate collection of Kansas lies, sends word that he thinks the popcorn prevarication still stands a good chance of first place.
Nervous
People often wonder why their nerves are so weak; why they get tired so easily; why they start at every slight but sudden sound; why they do not sleep naturally; why they have frequent headaches, indigestion and nervous dyspepsia
The explanation is simple. It is found in that impure blood which is continually feeding the nerves upon refuse instead of the elements of strength and vigor. In such condition opiate and nerve compounds simply deaden and do not cure. Hood's Sarsaparilla feeds the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives natural sleep, perfect digestion, is the true remedy for all nervous troubles.

COL. NORTHAM'S ENTERPRISE.
Making Extensive Improvements on His Boisra Property.
From the Santa Ana Blade.
Robt. Northam, the agent of the Stearns Rancho Company, has undertaken to develop and colonize his great tracts of land in the western end of this county. He is a man of means and executive ability, and the project he now has in hand will doubtless reach a successful issue. To one who has never been on his "mesa" ranch the magnitude and importance of this venture will not carry the weight it deserves. It is sufficient to say that a full realization of his plans will be of the utmost importance to this city. It will increase the county's productions heavily and bring within our borders scores of families.
Mr. Northam has 2000 acres of land in his own name and as much more of the Stearns company on which he has a four years' option. A large part of this is to be subdivided in small tracts and put on the market immediately. The land is in condition to be readily put under water at a trivial cost. We

Among the best tornado lies (section 1, exhibit 1.) are the following: A man was riding along on horseback with a jug of whisky tied with a strap to the saddle horn. After the tornado had ceased the jug handle was found inside the jug and the strap was sticking out of the nozzle, the jug having been blown inside out without spilling a drop of the liquor.
Again: During another hard wind a goat happened to get in the middle of the road and had his hair blown off, leaving his hide as clean as a skinned batten. The animal looked so much like a Mexican dog with horns that he was placed on exhibition.

PICNIC IN A COLORED CHURCH.
Lights Turned Off, Fight Followed, and the Cake with the Ring Stolen.
There was a picnic in one of the colored churches of Louisville, Ky., the other night. The proceeds were to be applied on the shortage of the pastor's salary. It was arranged that every woman who attended the picnic should take a well-filled basket, covered with heavy paper, a card inside bearing her name. The baskets were to go to the highest bidder, and the purchaser was to eat with the "good sister" that brought the basket.
Darkies, old and young, came crowding into the church. Uncle Mosby arose, and as he waved his hand for silence said:
"Dis hyar picnic is fer de ben'fit uv de church, de cookin' is garenteed, highest bidder gits de grub, cash down, mine ye'"
An old negro at this point arose and said that he would cut a white cake with a ring inside, 15 cents cash down, and the ring guaranteed.
The first basket brought 20 cents, but Uncle Mosby gave them to understand that no more would go at that price.
The bidding became better. It was just here that a new feature was introduced. Jim Drake, a drunken steamboat roster, came in, displaying four or five dollars, and began to bid. An old sister, by the name of Jane Lanem, yelled out, "He cann't eat wild me."
Several others made this same statement, but Jim held his ground, and said, "My money is des as good as anybody's money."
"Yo' money is Satin's money!" yelled Aunt Jane.
"Yes, an' yo'd like ter hav' ol' Satin plaster'd all over yo'!'" said Jim.
Uncle Mosby waved his hand and said: "Dis hyar picnic am gwine ter be run on principals uv respec,' and beth' yer aln't in no respectful condishun, Jim, yo' can't buy no grub."
"Ize jes' erbout as 'specterul ez-yo' wuz when yo' stole dat sack er meal, yo' ol' lyn hippercrit."
Uncle Mosby went for him and been on his "mesa" ranch the magnitude and importance of this venture will not carry the weight it deserves. It is sufficient to say that a full realization of his plans will be of the utmost importance to this city. It will increase the county's productions heavily and bring within our borders scores of families.
Mr. Northam has 2000 acres of land in his own name and as much more of the Stearns company on which he has a four years' option. A large part of this is to be subdivided in small tracts and put on the market immediately. The land is in condition to be readily put under water at a trivial cost. We have Mr. Northam's word for it that deciduous and citrus fruits and vegetables grow remarkably well there unmolested by frost or disease.
On an eminence overlooking the Pacific ocean Mr. Northam has erected a beautiful country villa. He expects to make this his home. The permanent improvements he has already established are of a substantial and costly nature. He has shown his abiding faith in that section and has gone about its development in a systematic and thorough manner. W. J. Hole, the man who has brought La Habra under development, has been chosen as Mr. Northam's lieutenant in the matter of securing colonies and individual settlers. The same indefatigable energy Mr. Hole exhibited at La Habra will be shown toward the "mesa" ranch.
The Blade takes pleasure in noting these signs of our growth. We cannot refrain from saying that we believe it our duty as a city to encourage by every means possible such enterprises. Whatever effects these districts favorably indirectly assists in our growth. Such men as Hole and Northam are good men to encourage.
VOICE OF THE PRESS.
TOUGH ON THE INDEPENDENT.
From the Fullerton Tribune.
Fullerton was flooded with extra copies of the Anaheim Independent last Saturday. We have been unable to learn who paid for them. Our "devil" received one of the extras, and was requested, on a printed slip, to send in his subscription. The aforesaid "devil" cannot read, but is thinking seriously of sending over his subscription, as he can get just as much information from the Independent as the best English scholar in Fullerton. The printed slip also notifies the reading public of Fullerton that the Independent was the nickel-plated, all wool and a yard wide, double action, official organ of the city of Anaheim, in the State of California. We deny this statement; one-half of that sheet may be the "official" organ of our neighbor city, but the other half is the "official" organ of a San Francisco patient inside house.
PICTURE OF THE ALAMITOS FACTORY.
From the A amitus Bee.
One of the prettiest sights we have ever witnessed can be seen every night after the factory is lighted up, the electric lights flash and glimmer from the extreme end of the beet sheds to the far end of the enclosure, where the warehouse stands. The main building is a blaze of light from basement to dome, dimly showing the outlines of the mammoth structures against the grand old mountains just visible in the north, in the faint twilight. The whole forming a picture once seen is never forgotten.

Catarrh Cannot be Cured with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a blood or constitutional disease, and in order to cure it you must take internal remedies. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine. It was prescribed by one of the best physicians in this country for years, and is a regular prescription.

A PIONEER SHOEMAKER.
WORKING AT HIS TRADE ALTHOUGH EIGHTY-FIVE YEARS OLD.
James McMillen, of Champaign, Has Followed the Shoemaker's Trade All His Life—Every Day at His Bench Working with Apparently the Same Vigor as a Young Man—A Sketch of His Life.
From the Gazette Champaign, Ill.
At the advanced age of eighty-five years, James McMillen, of 112 West Washington Street, is one of the most active men in Champlain, Illinois. Mr. McMillen is a pioneer of the city, and his form is as familiar to the streets as that of any citizen of the town. All his life Mr. McMillen has followed the trade of shoemaker, and every day he is at his bench, bending over his work with apparently the same vigor he combed when he was a young man.
He has a little shop on North Wright street, the vicinity of the University of Illinois. He is the official shoemaker, as it were, the students of that institution.
About a year ago Mr. McMillen was absent from his bench for several weeks, and his earlier form was missed along the streets. The local newspapers announced that he was dangerously ill. For months he was a fever, but finally he appeared again at his shop, and has lost but very few days since then and none, perhaps, on account of illness.
His friends were surprised to see out again, and they were more surprised than he told them the cause of his recovery. There was no small amount of local interest in his case, and a reporter visited him, leave him relate the story!
"I read in the newspaper testimonials from people who claimed to have been cured of kidney trouble by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and thought that it would do me no harm to give them a trial. I bought a box of them at the drug store and began taking them according to directions. It may seem strange, but it is a fact that I felt the benefit of them almost as soon as I began to take them. After I had taken a few pills my urinal discharges became almost as black as tar and I noticed at the same time that the pain and soreness were leaving my kidneys."
A few days later the swelling began to go out of my ankles, and at the end of five weeks it had entirely disappeared, taking with it that terrible sour which had formed on the bottoms of my feet and caused me so much trouble. I continued to gather my lost strength, and at the end of six weeks I felt entirely recovered and resumed my work at the shop. I think I took from four to five boxes of the pills and have taken none since."
Mr. McMillen's residence on West Washington street, is more than a mile distant from his shop, but nearly every day he walks the entire distance, morning and evening, and he could not do this if that swelling still existed.
Mr. McMillen has no backwardness in talking of the merits of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People contain in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price, 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50 (they are never sold in bulk or by the 100), by addressing Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.Y.

Going to Klondyke?
If You are, Read Carefully the Instructions as to the Route You Should Travel to Get There.
So many inquiries are reaching us in reference to the Gold Fields of the Yukon, especially the Klondyke section, and how to reach the same, etc., that the following has been printed in order to save time in replying, as it is practically impossible to answer in detail all the inquiries made.
There are two different routes to these gold fields.
From San Francisco or Seattle to St. Michaels, thence by river steamers up the Yukon to the Klondyke (Dawson City). Distance about 4700 miles. Usual fare, $150.
The dates these vessels leave San Francisco and Seattle are irregular and infrequent, the vessels comparatively small with limited accommodations.
The voyage to St. Michaels is in the open ocean and rough waters.
The other route (and the one taken by probably nine-tenths of all those going to the Yukon) is by this company's steamers (Pacific Coast Steamship Co). Sailing from San Francisco every fifth day and transferring to the Alaska steamers at Puget Sound ports. These steamers run as often as every fifth day and since the recent mining excitement the Company has been dispatching steamers still more frequently. In addition to the steamers leaving San Francisco and Puget Sound ports for Alaska the company also operates the steamer Geo. W. Elder from Portland, Oregon, running directly from there to Alaskan ports, (not calling at either Puget Sound ports or ports in British Columbia). This steamer sails from Portland, July 30th, and it is expected she will sail again about the 14th or 15th of August and probably about every 14 days thereafter until further notice.
All of these steamers stop at Juneau; some of them go up as far as Dyea, which is the head of ocean navigation. The passage from Puget Sound north is exceedingly smooth as it is all inland navigation.
From Dyea, the route is over Chilcoot pass, a distance of 25 miles to Lake Linderman, the same being the head waters of the Yukon water shed. From Lake Linderman by a system of connecting rivers and lakes, down stream to the Klondyke Gold Fields, distant between five and six hundred miles. Total distance by this route from San Francisco about 2300 miles, from Seattle about 1600 miles.
There is no wharf at Dyea. The tide
George Washington contracted a disease which developed into laryngitis, which proved fatal; he was buried on estate, now historic Mount Vernon. John Adams passed away from senile disability and was buried at Quincy, Mass.
Thomas Jefferson died of chronicarrhhea and, like most of the south-born Presidents, he was buried on his own estate, that at Monticello, Va. James Madison passed away of old age and was buried at Montpelier, Vt. James Monroe also died of general illness; he was buried in Marble Cemetery, New York City.
John Quincy Adams died from a stroke of paralysis with which he was attacked while in the House of Representatives at Washington. His body is interred at Quincy, Mass.
Andrew Jackson died of consumption and dropsy, and was buried on his estate—the Hermitage—near Nashville, Penn.
Martin Van Buren succumbed to carrh of the throat and lungs; his grave at Kinderhook, N.Y.
William Henry Harrison caught a severe cold on the day of his inauguration and it finally developed into pleurisy from which he died. He was buried at North Bend, Ohio.
The mysterious disorder which caused the death of John Tyler was likened to a billous attack; his body was interred at Richmond, Va.
An injudicious diet which induced cholera morbus is assigned as the reason for the death of Zachary Taylor, who was buried on his estate, near Louisville, Ky.
James K. Polk died of cholera; was buried on his estate near Nashville, Penn.
Millard Fillmore was fatally struck with paralysis; his body lies in Forest Hill Cemetery at Buffalo, N.Y.
Franklin Pierce died of inflammation in the stomach; was buried at Concord, N.H.
James Buchanan was for many years sufferer from rheumatism and gout, from which he finally died; he was buried at Lancaster, Pa.
Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by J. Wilkes Booth and is buried at Springfield, Ill.
Andrew Johnson's death was caused by paralysis and he was buried at Greenville, Teen.
Ulysses S. Grant died, after a long struggle, of cancer of the throat and his body lies in the mighty and magnificent mausoleum at Riverside Park, New York City.
Rutherford B. Hayes died of paralysis of the heart and was buried at Fremont, Ohio.
James A. Garfield was assassinated by Charles J. Guiteau, and is buried at Cleveland, Ohio.
Chester A. Arthur succumbed to bright's disease and his grave is in natural Cemetery, Albany, N.Y.
It is always gratifying to receive testimonials for Chamberlain's Colie, cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and when the endorsement is from a physician it is especially so. "There is no more satisfactory or effective remedy than Chamberlain's Colie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy," writes Dr. R. E. Tobey, physician and pharmacist, of Olney, Mo.; and as he has used the remedy in his own family and sold it in his drugstore for six years, he should certainly know. For sale by P. A. Berge.

The Secret Which a Few Half Inch Boards Kept Dark.
The pawnbroker, the banker of the spendthrift and the unfortunate, the custodian of family skeletons and the receiving teller of hard luck stories, runs across a deal of the pathos of life mixed up with not a little that is strikingly ludicrous.
Stories of former opulence and present need of reckless speculation, of dissipation, of oppression, are given over to his safe keeping, along with valued keepsakes and family heirlooms. Some of these heirlooms have strange histories.
In the vaults of a Clark street pawnbroker is a bit of soiled ribbon that was once pinned on the breast of a gallant general by no less a person than Napoleon. The ribbon is soiled and crumpled, but from the bottom of it, bright as the day it was first worn, hangs the insignia of the Legion of Honor. Along with it are papers giving the name of its first holder and the fields of battle on which he achieved the right to wear it. How it made its way to Chicago is unknown history, but time and again has it found its way into the vaults of the broker, only to be redeemed again and brought back. A few doors away is deposited a belt of fine gold and silver interwoven, the last reliio of a once distinguished Russian family.
Not long ago a woman, past the prime of life, tall and stately, and with the dark, imperious eyes and haughty hearing of a Castilian, called on a Clark street broker. She said she was of a Spanish family which had been compelled to leave its country for political causes. She would not give her name. "If I did," she said, "you would be incredulous." Then she handed the clerk a casket of jewels—tiaras, bracelets, pendantts, all set with gems of the first water. She wanted $80,000—for only a short while, she explained. Not a cent less would be of use to her. The jewels had doubtless cost a great deal more than this sum, but the broker feared he could not realize that amount on them, and the woman left and never returned.
A few days ago a well dressed, dignified man walked into this same establishment and said he would like to secure a loan of a few dollars. On being asked what security he had to offer he gave the dapper broker a fit of nervous prostration by calmly removing a glass eye.
“This is remarkably fine eye,” he explained, leisurely wiping the dislodged optic on his handkerchief. "I have been told it becomes better than my own, but if you would let me have a few dollars on it I think I could get along with the other for a day or two."
The broker admitted that he had once assisted in putting pennies on the eyes of a deceased relative, but couldn't see his way clear to place dollars on the glass eye of a live man, and the visitor secured the address of a second hand clothes dealer, replaced his eye, bowed stiffly and walked away.
In the higher class of pawnshops—those that restrict themselves solely to diamonds, watches and jewelry—the steamship Company's responsibility ends at anchorage, but it nevertheless uses its boats and crew helping passengers and their outfits and freight ashore. Horses and cattle have to swim ashore.
The present rush to the mines is so great that some difficulty may be experienced in getting packers to take goods over the pass. However, parties are taking up lots of horses, mules, and burros, and it is more than likely where there is such demand that it will be promptly met. When the writer was at the summit in the Spring, Archie Burns was rigging a wire cable to convey the goods over the steep grade of the summit about 1100 feet. The charge at that time for packing from Dyea over the summit to Lake Linderman was five to six cents per pound, but at that time it was easy sledding over the snow. Now that the snow has disappeared, goods must be packed either on animals or men's backs. Hence the charge will doubtless be higher as the work is slower and more difficult.
The present rates of fare (which are not guaranteed for any particular length of time as the fare from San Francisco to Puget Sound is at present "cut" from $15 and $7 50 to $8 and $4) are as follows, including berth and meals:
From San Francisco to Juneau—1st class,$40; 2nd class,$21. To Dyea—1st class,$48; 2nd class,$29.
From Seattle, Tacoma, Port Townsend,Victoria or Portland to Juneau—1st class,$32; 2nd class,$17. To Dyea—1st class,$40; 2nd class,$25.
The time occupied in making the run is ordinarily—from San Francisco to Juneau,eight to nine days; from Puget Sound or Portland,five to six days.
There is no trouble in purchasing supplies at the lowest figure and under most favorable conditions; in Juneau,在 case parties conclude after reaching there to take a supply across the divide.
The best time to take stores into the Yukon via Juneau and Dyea is in the spring, about March or April. There is no trouble, however, in parties making the trip in the summer time,但 we advise against undertaking it from October to February.
The recent news published in the daily press regarding the wonderful richness of the diggings at the Klondyke are substantially correct. Doubtless there has been more or less exagoration,但 it is safe to say that the mines are amongst the richest ever discovered.
Ordinary wages paid to miners range from $10 to $15 per day according to latest accounts.

All of these steamers stop at Juneau; some of them go up as far as Dyea,theis head of ocean navigation.The passage from Puget Sound north is exceedingly smooth as it is all inland navigation.From Dyea,the route is over Chilcoot pass,a distance of 25 miles to Lake Linderman,the same being the head waters of the Yukon water shed.From Lake Linderman by a system of connecting rivers and lakes,down stream to Klondyke Gold Fields,distant between five and six hundred miles.Total distance by this route from San Francisco about 2300 miles,从 Seattle about 1600 miles.
There is no wharf at Dyea.The tide rises and falls about 23 feet,the beach is long and flat so that at high tide it is covered for probably a mile inland from where the steamer anchors.Hence the landing of passengers and freight is slow and tedious.as it has to be done in the ship's boats.The Steamship Company's responsibility ends at anchorage,但它 nevertheless uses its boats和crew helping passengers和their outfits和freight ashore.Horsesand cattlehavetoswimashore.

It is always gratifying to receive testimonials for Chamberlain's Colle, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and when the endorsement is from a physician it is especially so. "There is no more satisfactory or effective remedy than Chamberlain's Colle, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy," writes Dr. R. E. Nobey, physician and pharmacist, of Olney, Mo.; and as he has used the remedy in his own family and sold it in his drug store for six years, he should certainly know.

A lady spending summer at a fishing village on the south coast asked one of the male residents:
"How far is it to Mr. Dibson's house?"
The seafaring man pulled his topknot politely and answered:
"Just about a dog's trot mount."
"How far is that?" the lady asked again.
The man hesitated an instant, as if searching in his mind for an exact measure of distance, and then replied:
"About as far as it would take ye to smoke an even pigment of torbacker, num!"—Pearson's Weekly.

The broker admitted that he had once assisted in putting pennies on the eyes of a deceased relative, but couldn't see his way clear to place dollars on the glass eye of a live man, and the visitor secured the address of a second hand clothes dealer, replaced his eye, bowed stiffly and walked away.
In the higher class of pawnshops—the those that restrict themselves solely to diamonds, watches and jewelry—the place loans are negotiated and goods received are separated from the front showroom by a partition. To give greater privacy to customers there is a little row of stalls along a counter. These are fitted with spring doors, giving them the appearance of a line of telephone boxes. Into one of these a person can step and transact his or her business unseen by any save the clerk behind the counter. Last summer, about holiday time, a fashionably dressed woman was in one of these stalls in a down town broker's office. She wanted to borrow $80 on a ring. "It's my engagement ring," she explained, "and I wouldn't have my husband know for the world."
While this was going on a man in the compartment next to her was dickering with another clerk over a loan of $50 on a watch. The owner's initials were on the back of the watch, and as this lessened its selling value the clerk hesitated in advancing so much.
"Oh, that's a point in your favor," explained the would be borrower. "My wife had those put on there when she gave it to me, and I'll be bound to redeem it shortly, for if she knew I was soaking her present there would be insomnia in our family till I brought it home."
By this time the woman in stall No. 1 had secured her money and departed. After a little delay the man did likewise. When the usual list was made out for police inspection, it was found that the names and addresses of the two tallied, and that they were, in fact, man and wife. The rings and the watch have long since been redeemed, and neither guesses that only a few half inch boards stood between two awful revelations.—Chicago Record.
SUBSTITUTES FOR GLASS.
Three compositions Coming Into Use In Europe.
There are several substitutes for glass in use in Germany, the chief among them being tectorium, fensterpappe and hornglas. Tectorium consists of a galvanized iron web covered with a gelatinous substance and is translucent, but not transparent. It is described as a substance that can be bent without being broken and is both tough and flexible. It is said not to be softened by the rays of the sun, is now soluble, and is not affected by severe cold. It is a poor conductor of heat and is well adapted for roofs on account of its extrense lightness.
When exposed to the sun, it loses its original yellowish color in time and becomes harder and more durable. One advantage is that it can be easily repaired in case it is cut, does not break and is well adapted for factory windows and skylights for both houses, market halls, verandas, transportable buildings and for roofing.
For ordinary hotbeds and forcing houses, such as are used by most florists is no trouble, however, in parties making the trip in the summer time, but we advise against undertaking it from October to February.
The recent news published in the daily press regarding the wonderful richness of the diggings at the Klondyke are substantially correct. Doubtless there has been more or less exaggeration, but it is safe to say that the mines are amongst the richest ever discovered.
Ordinary wages paid to miners range from $10 to $15 per day according to latest accounts.
We are of the opinion that there will be sufficient food supplies to last over the winter, and hence there will be no serious danger from suffering on that account. Of course, this will not be the case if people rush in there in unlimited numbers.
The inland voyage by this company's steamers to Juneau is delightful in the summer season. The scenery is magnificent, and, being in inland waters, there can be no seasickness. The steamers are all large, and the company's employees, from long years of experience, are familiar with the intricate navigation of these waters, the great importance of which no one can fully appreciate until they have made the voyage.

and market gardeners; Here is another and cheaper substitute for glass in the so called fensterpappe, which is a tough, strong manilla paper, that may be stretched on large sashes or frames and saturated by painting the exposed surface with boiled linseed oil until it becomes translucent and impervious to water. Light wooden frames, 40 inches in width, and of any desired length, are provided and covered with the paper, which is fastened by nailing at the edges and then painted with ordinary boiled linseed oil until the paper is so saturated that the last coat of oil forms a smooth, glistening surface, like varnish. As soon as dry the frame is ready for use. It admits sufficient light for growing plants, does not require to be shaded in hot sunshine, is light, durable, secure against breakage by hail or ordinary accident, and, taking everything into account, is said to be about 100 times cheaper than glass. It is largely used by florists and market gardeners in the district of Frankfort, and their general verdict is strongly in its favor, although for handsome conservatories, skylights, etc., it possesses less durability and none of the neatness and elegance of sectorism.
Finally, there is a new product, called hornglas, which has been recently patented and placed on the German market. Hornglas resembles tectorium in appearance, with the difference that it is thinner and consequently lighter in weight, and the insoluble gelatin with which the wire gauze is covered is whiter and more nearly transparent than tectorium, although it may be colored red, green, blue or any other tint that may be desired for special purposes. It is manufactured in two qualities, one being of heavier wire and with larger meshes than the other. The special advantage claimed for hornglas is that it does not soften under sun heat and is therefore adapted to use in any climate without the danger of becoming so soft and adhesive as to retain dust and dirt. Its uses and general characteristics are similar to those of tectorium.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
What is called the Spanish needle is the seed of a peculiar species of weed. It easily penetrates and adheres to cloth or wool and is thus transported to a new location.
