The new surface con sists of basaltic rock, which in its turn was fissured by eruptions and thrown up 011 a mountain range. The whole of the interior of a mountain was thus formed into caverns and caves, which belch forth hot sulphurous springs. It is here that the celebrated Roqnefort cheeses are made. The village of Roquefort is situated on the Mountain Larzac, which is about twenty-five miles in length and nearly 3,000 feet high. It consists chiefly ot limestone, covered with sufficient pas ture to feed the 300,000 sheep kept for their milk. The caves being formed by the displacement of rocks, consist of an intricate labyrinth of open spaces and passages connected with each other and and with a subterranean outlet. A coo' current of air, therefore, always of the same humidity and temperature, flows in every inturrupted stream through the caves. There is nothing in the milk or the preparation of the cheeses that gives them that peculiar flavor and delicious mellowness for which they are renowned. This is entirely effected by the method which they are cured. When the cheeses are ready for treat ment they are taken to the caves and after being allowed to cool are carried to the salting room. They are rubbed with salt on one side and then piled on the top of each other until the cave is full. After standing for twenty-four hours or so, the reversed side is saPed and once more they are piled tip as be fore. The cheeses have to be frepuently reversed in order that the moisture may be even throughout, and to develop the fungus which has previously been sown in the curd. In forty-eight hours the cheeses be come viscous, and are rubl>ed with coarse c oth. In thecourse of another two Oays the fungus will appear on the outside in the form of a sticky paste. This is carefully scrapped off with knives, together with a thin stratum of crust, and set aside for food. The cheeses are now sorted out; the most solid ones placed on the floor. In eight days time they become covered withe a yellowish red mould, togetner with other minute vegetations which is removed and given to the pigs. The scraping is continued until the character of the mould changes, showing that the curd has altered its condition, and an nouncing the completion of the cure. Then they are again carefully scraped and wiped, and wrapped in tinfoil, and are ready for the market. Roqueforte cheeses have been cured for centuries by this process and stand as a triumph of uneducated art. Is The Golden Rod a Fraud ? The golden rod, about which so much poetical stuff has been turned out, is probably a prime nuisance. Many peo ple attribute attacks of sneezing and hay fever to bunches cf golden rod having been brought into the house. Irritation of the air passages is noticed by persons who have stirred around in fields where the flower was in bloom, the trouble be ing probably caused by the pollen of the plant. The-State veterinarian of Wis consin says that the horses eat the flower, go into a decline and waste awiy, both blood and tissue being destroyed. It will be of much interest to farmers and horsemen to know that golden-»od causes a fatal disease in horses resemb ling consumption, The Veterinarian* of Wisconsin, says that this disease has de stroyed thousands of horses in Wiscon sin and Michigan, and strongly urges the destruction of golden-rod.

C., state that experiments with pure nickle and aluminum as substitutes for the present nickel pieces and one and two cent bronze pieces will be made at the mint by order of Director Preston during Sep tember or October. A resolution was j passed by the House of Representatives ; authorizing such experiments. There is some doubt whether the actual adoption of a new metal for 'he minor coins will be recommended at an early date by the I treasury officials, even if the experiments prove successful. The objection to a change in any form of coins or notes is the disposition of the public to refuse the old forms and insist upon having the new. This woul-t drive into the mints for recoinage £14.000,000 in nickel pieces which are now in circulation, and $7,500- 000 in pennies.

The difficulty of removing fish bones and similar obstructions impacted at the lower end of the oesophagus is well known, and various mechanical meas ures and appliances have been invented to deal wit?i the difficulty. One of the most simple, however, and as reported, one of the most effectual, is to adminis ter to the patient a pint of milk, and forty minutes afterward an emetic of sul phate ot zinc. The fluid easily passes the obs:ruction, and is of course, rapidly coagu ated in the stomach into a more or less solid mass, wh eh, on icing ejected, forces the obstruction before it and so ef fects its removal If you are weak, tired, and nervous, Hood's Sarsaparilla is just what you need.
