^ The ofllccrs of the Seaboard Air-Line Rail^
way have issued their circulars stating their
A reasons for making a cut la passenger rates. t
\ They say: h
P During the past three or four years, the SeaIk
board Air Line has made many and frequent .
X ell'orts to secure for itself, aud the public the J
f same through sleeping-car service enjoyed by .

^ u declination by connections, who have given
^ | us 11 cause for such refusal, first, one reason, ,
^ and then another, a majority of which Iihh c
f I been, to an extent unsatisfactory. One of '.lie
A | representatives to whom our application was
K : addressed may be assumed to nave given an
^! honest reason for Ills declination, when he
A stated, as he did, as follows:
x "I have frequently told you, both over my
^ signature and in personal conference, that I
jk j did not think it policy for this line to disturb
^ithe relations which now exist between Its
V line and the Southern Railway, by hauling a
/A ! car for your line, etc., etc."
xj In another communication, we pleaded
V\ with this same otliclal a second time, endeavj0
, oring to show the injustice of the position oc-1
^ | cupled by his conipauy, and in reply he states
W that he "Is not In a position to recommend!
tlie operation ol any through cars that will |
\ disturb the relationship now existing between

.Science Utilizer nil ilie Ox.
In an article on the "Wonders of tL
World Waste," William George Jo
dan, in the October Ladies' homeJou
rial, details how science at the preset
day utilizes the ox. "Not many yeai
ago," he says, "when an ox was slai
ghtered, forty per cent, of the auimi
was wasted ; at the present time 'not!
ing is lost but its dying breath.' A
but one-third of the weight of the an
mal!consists of products that can t
eaten, the question of utilizing tb
waste is a serious one. The blood :
used in refining sugar and in sizin
paper, or manufactured into dooi
knobs and buttons. The hide goes t
the tanner ; horns and hoofs are tram
formed into combs and buttons thigh
bones wortn eignty dollars per ton, ar
jut into bandies for clothes-brushes
foreleg bones sell for thirth dollars pe
ton for collar buttons, parasol handle
ind jewelry; the water in which bone
ire boiled is reduced to glue; the dus
prom sawing the boues is food for cal
;le and poultry; the smallest bones ar
made into boneblace. Each foot yield
i quarter of a pint of neat's-foot oil
:he tail goes to the "soup while th
jrush of hair at the tail is sold to th
nattress- maker. The choicer parts o
he foot makes the basis of butterine
;he intestines are used for sausage cas
ngs or bought by gold beaters. Th
indigested food in the stomach, whicl
ormerly cost the packers of Chicagi
hirty thousand dollars a year to re
nove and destroy, is now made int<
>aper. These are but a few ot the pro
lucts of abattoirs. All scraps unfi
or any other use find welcome in tlx
;lue-pot, or they do missionary worl
or farmers by acting as fertilizers."
Prayer leads to everything that is
ood, and away from everything
vil.
