After five minutes had elapsed and there was still no appearance of Duchess in the per- forming cage. Captain Bonavita wondered at the silence which followed the pistol shots and he walked to the far’und of the runway,

His appearance was greeted by a forecious FORT, from Duchess, who stood off several fest from the prostrata body of Taylor, watching him closely,

Captain Bonavita shouted to the other at tendants, and the lioners was beaten with the] iron wapons of the trainers until she turned and dusted into the ring with the other beasts, N. Y. Herald.)

Pure Cod Liver Oil, extracted by us from fresh cod livers, combined with the Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry; and how valuable such a blending of these important medicinal agents must be is plain to everybody. It is beyond price in Anemia, Insomnia, Weakness and lack of Nervous Tono, Poor Digestion, Wasting Diseases, La Grippe, Lung Troubles and Blood Impurities. Science can furnish nothing better perhaps nothing, so good. Dr, W. H. Dalfe, of Canada, says: "I have used it in my practico and take pleasure in recommending it as a valuable tonic and reconstructive." It is a remedy that can afford to appeal to its record and represents the science and knowledge of bright and aggressive medical investigation. Effective from the first dose.

The use of rubber for manufacturing por ppies depende largely on its chem:cal bobavi- our and its resiliency, Chemically speaking, the molecule of indiarabber is a very complex one, consisting, as it does, of a number of doubly linked carbon atoms which would account for is indifferenca to the action of other substraces, which may be said aran te excted that of the paralon, and it is mainly due to this characteristic of rubber that it is of such great value in making many articles of daily use.

There has been some discussion' as to the wisdom of mandring rabber trees. I believe that the production of a good species of rabber depends upon the soil, climatic conditions, pro- ximity to other plantations, moisture, etc., mora than on anytblog else. I might mention, how ever, that the best fertilising substances for rubber jrses, in addition to spontaneously decaying vegetable matter, are superphosphata of lime, aslipetre, and sulphate of fron, a judici- bas pse of which increases the yield of rubber and improves the growth of the tragu...
