Flashing Signtals.-The interest which
has recently been taken in England in a
the sun-signals which were ilashed from t
Lord Chelmsford's army in Zululand
and Major Pearson's advanced position
at Ekowe has suggested to the directors I
of tle 1olyteclil institution a popu- a
lar subject, which has been introduced I
in the formn of an illustrated lecture. I
The flashing of signals may be and is I
done in a great variety of ways. The I
fundamnental principle of the language 1
flashed is the Morse telegraphic alpha- i
bet, or a special series of numerals com
posed of long and short signs, which i
are read off by specially constructed
dictionaries of sentences. Thus one,
two, three, four, live short flashes mean
respectively 1, 2, 3, 4, 0; one long-sus
tatned light representS (3, one long one
short7, one short one long 8, two long
one short 9, and one long two short 10.
A pause is made between each figure,
and the signal is repeated by the sender
until it is repeated by the -receiver.
Thus, three short fIlashes would be 3,
two short one long Would be 9, and two
short would be 2; the full signal 392.
Looking to the book of sentences, 392
would be fouud to be "Enemy on the
alert." The snn flashes are made by
a specially prepared instrument called
a hellograph, the )rinciple of w leh Is
simply the angulated mirror whic every
school-boy Is thoroughly famillar with.
When the days are dull and the sun not
available other means are resorted to,
one of tne most effective being a large
erection on tihe principle of the Vene
-tian blind. Whep tihe laths are open
the structure at a few miles distanmee Is
invisible: but when closed the form of
a large dark tower is presented to tihe
distant observer, whlich appears and
disappears at short or long intervals,
and gives thus the like telegraphic lan
guage and the same signals. The col
lapsible drum, the colomub, magiesiumn
lamps, the electric light, the fog h'orn
and steam whistle are all slimi larly
employed for the same purpose an'd up
on the same basis, both ashore and alloat,
so that under all circumstances of
weather, signals of importance can al
ways be got through distances of ten or
1llfteen miles.
A near vegetatole substance has re

and Bouchat, which dissolves meat

Bldloons for War Purnposes.-Onm the
occasion of the inaigurlation of M.
Thier's statte a balloon ascent was made
at Nancy on August 4. The wind was
blowing from the west wIth a velocity
of sixteen and a half kilonetres an
hour, aid no variation In tihe directiont
wais perceptible fromn the grounad 800
metres. 'lThe altitude of the balloon wvas
tauken by officers front Maizeville, wvithm
a thteodolite, anud signtals were exechan
ged with the ground during.the ascent.
T1he signals were given by time aro
auats with a flaig, a~d brthae ofileers
wvaih a reflecting mirror p meed ini the
end of a tubhe, aund mounted mas a tele
scop~e. Thte olclers dlireted the rays
of the sunt on tie balloon, aund lutter
cepted rays with a key ini order to rise
the Morse alphabet. The dlistance of
Maizleville from the balloon was more
than six kilometres, and thme signals
could be sceen at a mutch greater dis
tancee, Ti'ts shows that in a besieged
townt a p~assng baloon couald be uased for
giving orders to, or receivia'g news
fromn, friendly forces. Th is system of
comnmunication hias been livented by
one of the officers of the garrison.

Prof. Brum of Geneva, has described
a curious case of poisoining in a child
of two or three years of age. It was
caused by eating a combination of cab
bage and figs. The cabbage, he says
must have produced a great abundance
of lactic acid, wvhich In the preseitce of
the figs,, developed enough of butyrlc
acid to cause the death of the child,
One of the largest machinists int Eng

How I PAYS TO RAIsH CURaANT.
Let us look, for a moment, into the de
tails of growing say half an acre of
aurrants and note what the resu It Is
likely to be. A piece of land fitted to
produce a good crop of potatoes is in a
good condition to set to currants. To
set then four by live feet will require
about 1200 bushels, aild they should
cost about $5 per hundred, During
the first season potatoes may be planted
between the rows and between the
bushes, without materially injuring
the growth of the bushes or the yield
of the potatoes. During the second
year beans may be planted between the
rows. which, with what fruit is ob
tained, should pay the original cost.
And the third year they should pro
duce 1}. pounds1 to the bush, which at
6 eIts per poinid, would a,mount to
$108. Alter the bush has attained its
growth, with good culture a fair aver
age yield would be about three pounds
to ti bush, hitch at 0 cents per pound,
wo ild amount to .t.216. The expenses
for labor and manure annually would
uot vary materially from that required
oi half an acre of potatoes after they
were plailted.

prevented from returniing by washing
with tepid water, with proper friction
by a towel, and by the application of a

GUILTY OF Wit'ING.-Soie people
have a fasihion of con ta~ing excellein
remedies witl thelirge mass of "pat

guilty of a wrong. There are some ad
vertised remedies fully worth all thit
is asked for them, and one at least we
know of-hop Bitters. The writer has
had occasion to use the Bitters in Just
such a climate as we have most of the
year in Bay City; an d lias always found

A Modern Medical Miracle
is without doubt tho discovery of 'Anakeals"
by Dr. bilsuce, an infalhble romedy for the
mo3t painful and exasporatingc of all diseasos,
Piles. 500.000 once anflieted mortals gladly
attest the virtue of Anakesis and suffering
Millions joyously hall the hope of relief. Tie
simple, rational, common sense nature of this
marvelous discovery of a cure so safo, easy
and certain for a 'diseaso so painful and per
sistont has excited the wonder of the people
and admiration of medical men. It is the re
sult of 40 years experience by a distinguished
scientific physician. This really great remed3
combines the soothing system of the Engl-oh
mechanical method of the French and the
heroo medical custom of American Burgeons.
"Anakosis" therefore affords almost instant
relief from pain, keeps up the raw sensitive
- tumors and both by pressure and medicAtlor
oures the most lnveterate cases. of piles. It
has stood the critical test of 20 years' us<
against the coils of ignorant imitations and
unscrupulous empiricism, over half a millior
of persons have used It and none without
benofit. Doctors of all schools prescribe it am
the nearest to an in'fa lible remedy possible.

FALSE AND TRUE.
We extract from Dr. R adway's "Treatise o
disease and Its Curo," as follows:
List of Diseases Vured by
Radway's Sarsaparillian Resolvent.
Chronic Skin Diseases. Caries of the Bone
Humors in the Blood, Scrofulous Dise sea. Ba
or unnatural Iabit of flody, Syphills and Veno
ronl, Fever Sores, Chronic or tld Ulcers, Nalt
theum, Rickets, Whito Swelling, Scal, iHeid,
Uterine Afctothlns, Cankers, Glaibular Swell
ings, Nodes, Wasting and Decay of the Hody,
Pimples and Ii Lotches. Tumors, D~ysnepia, Kid
ney aid Bladdor Dliseases, chronic Ith umatism
and (lout, uonsunption, (ravel and Calculous
Deposits, and varietes of the above complaints
to which sometimes are given specious names.
We assort that there is no known remedy that
possesses the curative power over these dis
eases t.11t RADWAY'S JIESOIsVsNT furnishes. It
cures, step by step. surely, trom the founda
tion, and restores the injured parts to their
soun,1d COnittion. Tior wst its of iMe body
are slopiped aid isealitiy blood is sup

pt'vor of R ADWAY's RtisovsXKr. In cases where
Ihe system has been alivaled. and Morcury,
Quicksilver, Corrosiv Sublimate have accumu
lated and become depos iod in tho bones, joints
etc., causing caries of the bones, rickets. spinal
curvaturns, contort ns, white swelilng4, vari
cose veins, etc., the SAnRAPARII.LIAN will resolve
wvay those deposits an , exterminate tho virus

if those who are taking thitse medicines fM

eases, however slow m.iy be the ouro, "ieel bet

their flo-ih and weight, i ncreasing, or even krol

gressing, In those diseases tho patient, either
gets better or worse-the virus of the diseasn

CAUTION.
All remedial agents capable of destroying life
by an overdo -e should bie avoided. Morphne,
opium, strychnine, arniga, hyosciamus, and
other powerful remedies, does at, certain times'
rin very smail doses, relieve the patient during
their action in the syatem, lu t perhaps the
second dose, it repeated, tmay aggravate and in
crease the sufferlaig, and another dose cause
,death. There is no necessity for using these
.uncertain agents when a positive remedy like

cruciating pain quicker, without, butailing the~
least dlilcuity in either infant or adult.
