MISCELLANEOUS
Eel Skins for Rheumatism.
Eel .-kins fur rheumatism. It i* a quaint
idea, and sounds a good deal more like an
ancient and exploded superstition thau the
aceejited remedy of sen>ible men. Never
theless eels skins are largely in demand,
and a great many people in various parts
of the country wear (he dried *kin.> as folly
accredited cures for rheumatism. A I'ull
Malt Budget reporter the other day paid a
visit to iiiiling-gate and made >onie in
quiries. One of the largest eel dealers <n
the jrreat London fish market was seen,
and at once gave some interesting informa
tion on the subject
"Well, you know," he said, "we don t
-kiu eels here. We sell them in quantity
and alive. All the same. I have heard a
good deal about the employment of eel
skins for the cure of rheumatism and
though I have never used them myself, for
I am thankful to say I do not suffer from
the complaint, 1 do know of numbers of
caess in which they have been used with
complete success. Our men are often ask
ed get a few skins, and they send them to
all parts of the country. They get a few
pence or a tip of some kind for a bundle of
skins, but I don't think there is any regu
lar trade in them."
"How are the skins used.'''
"They are stretched on aboard and dried
in the first place, then, to make them pli
ant. they are slightly moistened and tied
around the suffering limb. They are worn
as garters, anklets, bracelets, and armlets.
They are woven around the waist—next
to the skin of cour-e—for lumbago and
sciatica."
Inventions and Wages.
Some paper has started the silly ques
tion. "I)o Inventions decrease Wages?'
Certainly they do not. On the contrary.
inventions increase wages, shorten the
work day, and decrease prices. In fact,
inventions constitute the only possible
way by which labor can be emancipated
from drudgery, long hours, and poor pay.
Inventions are increasing every year, and
wages are constantly advancing in all
countries where they are utilized. Take
calico as an example: There are persons
now li\ing who can remember when calico
sold at 2~> cents a yard. It now sells at 8
cents. This great reduction in price was
effected by inventions. In the meantime,
wages have advanced very greatly. A
day's wages will now buy as much calico
as a week's wages would fifty years ago.
Calico is selected as an example, but the
same fact* are true as regards other inann
factnres.
Any one, no matter whether a laborer, a
loafer, or a capitalist, who talks against
inventions talks against one of the very
greatest material blessings that has been
vouchsafed to the world, and it is astound
ing that any person can be found who is
so ignorant or so rash as to condemn them.
—Scientific American.
The Waste By Bad Roads.
Prof. Shaler, in a well considered article
in Scribner's Magazine, makes this state
ment: "If we take the misapplied expenses
of our country-ways, if we count at the
same time the many social disadvantages
which they bring to the people, it is prob
able that the sum of the road tax in this
country is greater than that of our ordinary
taxation. From some data which I have
gathered in my personal experience with
roads, I am inclined to think that even in
New England the cost to the public arising
from ineffective road-ways, as well as from
the waste of money expended on them,
amounts to not less than an average of ten
dollars a household. In this reckoning I
have included the loss of time and of trans
porting power of vehicles, the wear and
tear of wagons carriages and the beasts
which draw them. It is probable that the
expenditure in this direction is greater thuu
that which is incurred for the schools or
any other single element of public interest.
I am inclined, indeed, to think that it
comes near the sum of all our State an>'
federal taxation together."
—Acute rheumatism is an inflammation
of the joints, marked by pain, heat and red
ness. With these symptons apply Salva

Nothing tries the patience of a man more
than to liston to a hacking cough, which
he knows could be easily cured with I)r,
Hull'* Cough Syrup.
—A physician declares that "if the onion
were generally eaten there would be no
diphtheria, rheumatism or gout." Yes
and then Juliet would remark:—"Sweet
Romeo, the breeze is blowing from thee to
me. Please kneel on the other side or
hand me also an onion from thy knapsack.',
—A newly married Oil City couple pub
lish a card in the papers returning thanks
for presents bestowed, giving the names of
all the donors of wedding gifts. looks
funny at first sipht, but it is in just as form
as the custom of returning thanks in the
public prints for ftiueral favors.
—Sick headache is cured by Hood's Sar
saparilla, the peculiar medicine. Sold by
all druggists.
—The utmost care is used in preparing
Ilood's Sarsaparilla. It is pure honest and
reliable.
—A new cement, for securing iron into
stone, is described in some of the loreign
palters. The cement is made by melting
resin and stirring in brick dust, which
must be finely ground and sifted, until a
sort of putty is formed, which, however,
runs easily while hot. In usiiifr, tho iron
is set into the hole in tho stone prepared to
receive it, and the melted putty poured
in. until the space is filled; then, if desired,
bits of brick previously warmed, may be
pushed into the mass, and a little of the
cement thereby saved. As soon as the
whole is cool the iron will be firmly held
to the stone, and the cement is quite dura
ble and uninjured by the weather, while,
unlike lead and sulphur, it has no in
jurious effect on tho iron.

July 10 the total amount received from
visitors ascending the tower was $3X0,000,
and during the week ending July 10 the
amount received was $67,000. At this
rate the structure will be more thau paid
for before the close of the exhibition. I!e
sides the money paid for ascents, the rent
al charged to various concessionaires
amounts to a larpe sum. A new attraction
has been recently added. On the second
platform a letter box has been installed,
and post cards, provided wilh a special
Kilfel tower postage stamp, are on sale.
A vast number of people take pleasure in

—A new idea in Germany is the whole
sale mannfaetnre of mortar cf the be.-t
quality, to be .-old to small builders and
private individual-. Some '2.000.00*) libl.

obviates the necessity of making the mor
tar on the ground ander unfavorable eir
cnmstances and at unnecessary expense.

—A good story is told of President Har
rison's encounter with a politician whe
was demanding that a certain officer be re

replv. "That is not a sufficient reason'
said the President. "Well, sir," s*id the
interlocutor, "when we were beating about
the woods looking for votes, if I remember
correctly, the principle reason we urged foi
turning Mr. Cleveland out of office wa- thai
he was a Democrat." This seemed to puz
zlc the President, but only for a minute.
"That may be," he rejoined, '"but if I re
