Vi i at 1!ic Jnimiirso I'.nU M. T. Van Buren, United Sf.aloB con sul pe roral at Jajinn, presents ia a Mno took boiuo interesting; facts in reganl to tbo food of the Jnpr.ncRO peo Wiib aropntin of 30,000,000 people, tlioro in to lo found in the whclo country but little more than 1,000,000 Load of cattle. Of these only COO.OOO can be considered fit for food. Tbereforo there are but two head of cuttle for each one hundred people, whereas in the United States we have for one hundred mouths seventy-three cattle to rill them. Japan slaughters, however, 30,000 head of cattle, more than one-half of which is eaten by the foreign population, the rest being con sumed by the Japanese army and navy. Mutton and pork are, outside of the treaty ports, almost unknown. FjsIi enters largely into the food of the people. Mr. Van Buren mentions that "cod, salmon, herring, mackerel, salmon trout, carp, eels, skate mullet, catfish and plaice are plentiful and cheap." It is known that the govern ment has taken active measures in regard to fish culture, and endeavors in every way to increase the products of the sea, Bending for all American publications on these topics. The con sul states that " one-half of the people eat fish every day, one-quarter two or three times a week, and the balance perhaps once or twice a month." It is their habit to eat a great many vari eties of fish raw. But the Japanese are more essentially vegetarians than even the Chinese, and all the land marine plants, with the tubers, seem to be placed under contribution. Among exceptional food plants Mr. Van Buren mentions an acorn which grows on a small bush from three to four feet high ; it has less sugar than the nut from the chestnut tree of America, but has the merit of being free from astringent and bitter quali ties. Large quantities of these nuts are gathered, dried and eaten by the people in various ways. We! tear a great deal about glucose and dextrine in the United States, and we find from Mr. Van Buren's report that the Jap anese use in large quantities a sub stance which they call ame. " This is a preparation made from malted barley and rice or millet, the malt covering the starch of the rice or mullet into dextrine and maltose, end the product varying from a thick sugar or honey up to a hard candy." This ame is sold at a low price and its consumption is very large. Sealskin Sacqucs. A sealskin sacque costs fifty per cent, more than it did five years ago. Seal skins have not been worn more than fif teen or eighteen years. Fashion an d the discovery of new methods of preparing and dyeing, or first the latter and second tfetorjuery" brought them into use. The seal 'fur, as seen hare, is the inner coat. When on the back of the seal this fine fur is hid by coarse hairs, which are removed by a process of paring down the other Bide of the ekin. The color of the fur as known to wearers is artificial. If the government had not taken measures to protect the seal new wearers of seal sacques would be few in a short time. The Shetland seals were once numerous, but have been exter minated. The Newfoundland seal is in the market, but is inferior to the seel of Alaska. The islands of the Behring sea are the only ones in the world where seal catching has great commer cial importance. From 1751 to 1870 the scientific world knew nothing in regard to the history of the seal. The Smithsonian Institution did not possess a perfect skin and skeleton of the seal, although thousands of men and millions of dol lars have been employed in capturing, dressing and selling fur sealskins for the last hundred years. The vast breeding grounds bordering on the Antartctio have been entirely depop ulated. Between the vears 1797 and 1821 1,232 374 sealskins were taken on the Pribyloy islands; between 1821 and 1842 458,502 skins, aad from 1842 to 1861 372,000 ekins. In the year 18G8 tne number or sftins taken was 242,000. In 1870 only 9.0G5 were captured. During the last ten years the catch has neen a little less than 100.000 per year. The whole number taken between 179G and 1880 was 3,561,051 skins. The seal catching is done in Jane and July, After that time the fur begins to " shed,' and is worthless. The natives are paid xorty cents a 6km for their labor. Law Expenses. Twenty-eight years ago a citizen of New York, who died in that city, left an estate worth a quarter of a million of . dollars, which he bequeathed by will to his son cf the same name. But the will was disputed by the usual course of law, and the suit has just terminated in favor of the heirs, the son being dead What remains of the estate appears to be worth about $35,000. All the rest has been swallowed up in law expenses. ibis is not by any means an excep tional case, but it fairly illustrates the rapid increase of the expenses of liti cation, especially in reference to prop crty lights, and how much chance the average publio stands of bettering it self by resorting to protracted legal contests for the settlement of property rigtits, wiiicu could ana should be ami cably adjusted by compromise. A still more striking case has recent ly made the rounds of the American press as bavin? occurred in one of the law courts of the Middle States. A (sharp trickster appears to have taken advantage of some legal technicality to institute suits before a local magis trate against large numbers of non-resi dent property holders and business men upon bogus claims for small sums of money. In all these cases the par ties very well knowing that they owed no snch money neglected to appear before the magistrate to plead in the coses. Of course judgment was given Kguinst them by default. Then the frame was to permit these jHdgnients to remain unnoticed until after the time had expired for taking appeals. When that Vbn done the claims were put into tho hand of the regular judicial au thorities lot collection, and of course had to be puia. Two million barrels of suit are an lly export 6 J fruia JJichigan. scir.xTinc m)ti:s. The Urc of the telephone is making rapid progress in Germany.

Dr. Siemens, speaking at a recent meeting of the Society of Arts, referred to the open fireplace as possessing high sanitary qualities. It did not, like radiating hot-water stoves, warm the air of a room, but it heated ' the walls and furniture. If the air of a room is hotter than the walls moisture condenses on them, and mildew and fermentation are Bet up, to the detriment of the occu pants. O. H. Darwin has taken pains to esti mate the stresses caused in tho interior of the earth by the weight of continents and mountains, and he concludes that either the materials of the earth have about the strength of granite at 1,000 miles from the surface, or that they have a much greater strength nearer to the surface. He confirms Sir William Thompson's theory that tho earth must be solid nearly throughout its whole mass, and he attributes the lava of vol canoes to the melting of solid rock which exists at high temperatures at points where' tho pressure is dimin ished, or to the existence of compara tively small vesicles of molten rock. The Tay Bridge. The ill-fated Tay bridge in Scotland is about to be rebuilt, or rather replaced by a new one of similar structure. The Tay is abont a mile wide, and subject to sudden and violent storms. The new bridge will run alongside of the old one, whose remains can be utilized to some extent. It will begin, starting at the south end, with four brick arches, each of fifty feet span, and be followed by girder and truss spans, as follows: One of 118 feet, ten of 129 feet, thirteen of 145 feet, eleven of 245 feet, two of 227 feet, one of 162 feet, ten of 129 feet 6 inches, one of 127 feet 6 inches, and twenty-five of 71 feet. The long central spans will be seventy-seven feet in the clear above high-water mark. Ihe trains will run between the girders of these spans, and on top of those on either hand, as in the old bridge. The foundations of the piers are to be iron cylinders filled with concrete, upon which brickwork will be built up and surmounted by wrought iron pillars. Before travelers trust them selves to any great extent on this new piece of engineering, they are likely to want their nerves quieted with definite assurance that it won't blow over in a gale, train and ail, like its predecessor. The water of the Tay beneath the bridoe is 100 feet deep or more, so that it is Bure death to be plunged into it in tightly-locked railroad cars. The pas sengers wno went down with the flimsy old concern proved this conclusively. ricking Out the Weak Points of a Horse. The weak points of a horse can be better discovered while standing than while moving. If he is sound he will stand firmly and squarely on his limbs without moving any of them, with legs plumb and naturally poised.. If one 1. At . ' I 1 ' . . , loos is mrown iorwara witu tne toe pointing to the ground and tho heel raised, or if the foot is lifted from the ground and the weight taken from it, disease may be suspected, or at least tenderness, which is a precursor of dis ease. If the horeo stanfs with his feet spread apart or straddles with the hind legs, there is weakness in the loins and the kidneys are disor dered. Heavy pulling bends the knees. Bluish or milky cast eyes in horses in dicate moon blindness or something else. A bad-tempered horse keeps his ears thrown back. A kicking horse is apt to have scarred legs. A stumbling horse has blemished knees. When the skin is rough and hard, and does not move easily and smoothly to the touch, the horse is a heavy eater and his digestion is bad. Never buy a horse whose respiratory organs are at all im paired. Place your ear to the side of the heart, and if a wheezing sound is heard it is an indication of trouble let him go. How an Alligator Eats. An alligator's throat is an animated sewer. Everything which lodges in his open mouth goes down. He is a lazy dog, and instead of hunting for some thing to eat he lets his victuals hunt for him. lhat is, ho lies with his mouth open, apparently dead, like the 'possum. Soon a bug crawls into it. then a fly, then several gnats and a colony of mosquitoes. The alligator don't close his mouth yet. lie is wait ing for a whole drove of things. lie does his eating by wholesale. A little later a lizard will cool himself under the Bhade of the upper jaw. Then a few frogs will hop up to catch the mos quitoes. Then more mosquitoes and gnats light on the fiogs. Finally a whole village of insects and reptiles seme aown ior an aiternoon picnic Then all at once there is an earthquake. The big jaw falls, the alligator slyly blinks one eye, gulps down the entire menagerie and opens his great front door again lor more visitors. Florida Letter.

Once having emerged from the puling, sightless stage of its first nine days, the kitten becomes a win some and attractive creature. " Cat like" is a leproachful epithet aptly applied to women of the Becky Sharp type ; but it is not considered derogatory to the most fascinating girl to be credited with kitten-like ways for the kitten is the embodiment of playfulness and grace. The cruel in stincts of its tribe are not, however, slow to assert themselves, and it is comical to hear the mimio growl of puny thunder with which the tiny crea ture gloats over its first mouse. In the pages of fable, Puss has ever figured largely, but rarely after a flat tering manner. His guile and subtlety form the salient points in the repre seutations, and his character is painted akin to that of Master Reynard, the master of craft. He is depicted as a demure hypocrite, a false hermit, a deceitful counselor, the ensnarer of the unwary, the ally of wizards and witches. Rats in council debate vainly hew to bailie him.

A representative of the Lynn (Maps.) item, in a late ramble throughout that city, gathered, .among other scraps of inierest and information, the following: The first place visited by the reporter was the fruit store of Mr. J. Jevett, iNo. t7 Market street, in response to a rumor that the proprietor had been cured of the rheumatism by the great remedy. Mr. Levett not being in, the re porter hd a talk with his son. Mr. Levett stated that his father had been cured of an exceedingly bad attack of rheumatism by the St. Jacobs Oil. He had the disease in his right arm and shoulder, which became perfectly helpless after being affected a few hours. His pain was so great that he could not rest in comfort or attend to business with any degree of satisfaction. Afttr enduring this sort of thing for some time he pur chased a boltle of the Great German Reme dy and began to apply it. He did not mince matters at all, but hint used the Oil for all it was worth. After pursuing this mode of treatment for three days the pain was banished and hi father was in a per fectly healthy condition. He has never since felt any rheumatic pain. Barniim and the Bunko Man. An old gentleman strolling leisurely up Broadway, New York, was accosted by a well-dressed young man, who slapped him on the back, Baying : ' Why Mr. Williams, how are you ? How aro all the friends in Scranton ?" My name is not Williams," was the reply, "and I don't know anything about Scranton." The young man in sisted that he could not be mistaken and followed, talking volubly, till the elderly gentleman turned round and said : "Look here. My name is P. T. Barnum, and unless you clear out im mediately I'll have you behind the ban in the nearest police station in less than five minutes. I was a resident of this city before you were born. Now go." And he went. Horace B Dick, E-n , associate editor of the Delaware County Republican, Chester, Pa., was cured by St. Jacobs Oil of very severe injuries resulting from a fall.

Whilo Mr. Bencher and Dr. Talinnp,n aro making speclnl efforts this spring to save tho souls of the people, tho Great Germnil Bomoily is supplementing tho good work by prosorving and restoring health. The two influences are widely different, yet strangely aliko. It is one of thoso rare oecasions where tho spiritual and physical meet on common gronnd, both oper ating differently, yet each working toward tho accomplishment of the samo purpose, vit., the happiness of mankind. Thus moralized the reporter after visiting the great Brooklyn re vivals and subseipiontly interviewing several citizens of Now York upon tho work of the Great Gorman llemody. Calling upon Mr. John 8. Krom, agent for tho Now York and Baltimore Transportation lino, plor 7, North river, the reporter asked that gentleman if he or any of tho employes of tho company had been iwing tho St. Jacobs Oil this season. Mr. Krem promptly answered lhat tho Great Ger man Remedy was well known by thoso doing business at tho pier. Ho bad need the Oil, and had recommended it to several of the men, and it bad never failed to perform all that was needed. He was attacked with lumbago this winter, and, seeing tho many good words spoken by the citizens of Now York in favor of tho St. Jacobs Oil, ho concluded to give it a trial. It acted lilto a charm, subduing his trouble with nltnoht mngio celerity. Ho had not anticipated such rapid restoration, and confessed that the wouderful action of tho great healer surprised him. Ho bad never found such quick reliof in all his previous experience, aud, since using tho Oil, lie has never had occa sion to employ tho services of any liniment for tho reason that it had radically cured him of all rheumatic pain. The gratilying action of the St. Jacobs Oil in Ms own caso gave him unlimited confidence in its great curative power, and ho freely advised the men in tho employ of the company to uso it whenever thoy had occasion to ncod a liniment. It had given relief in eovoral instances to the employes. The most prououncod instance of its power was in tho caso of a oonnnander of one of tho company's bargos, Captain Samuel Jarrett, who wa severely afflicted with rhoumatism. Captain Jarrott lf,H suffered considerably with the rhoumatism, and complaiuod that Lo could not socuro rolicf. ne was told to try St. Jacobs Oil. Tho captaiu applied tho Great German Remedy and found relief. Ho was then in Baltimore in Lis vessel. Mr. Krem also statod the janitress of tho rooms he occu pied was also healed by 8t. Jacob's Oil.
