The best remedy is Ayer 's Pills. Being purel y vegetable, their action is prompt and their effect always beneficial.

I know of no better remedy for liver troubles , and have always found them a promp t cure for dyspepsia. " —Ja mes Quinn , 90 Middle St., Hartford , Conn. "Havin g been troubled with costive- ness, which seems inevitable with per- sons of sedentary habits , I have tried Ayer 's Pills, hoping for relief.

According to the naturalists wasps re- Btt«mber the locality of their nests just ninety-six houra. In a gallon cf sea water there are 1880 grains of salt, besides some mag- nesia, iodine, and bromine. The heads of the Cambridge studen ts have been measured, showing that the average brain capacity of a first-class man is 244.56 cubic inches. The capa- city of tho ordinary pa33 man's head measures 237.33 cubic inches. Spiders rarely cause any trouble with bees. Strong colonies are fully able til repol them should they enter the hivp. All webs about tho entrance should ba brushed away, or bees will be caught and devoured. Electric nflo3 are the latest. Instead of the ordinary percussion firing de- vice, a dry chloride of silver battery and a primary coil will, so it •we? lately stated before the American Institute, fire the riflo 35,000 times without re- charging. One of the human foot prints found in volcauic rock in Nicaragua several years ago is describod by Dr. D. G. Brinton as being 9 1-3 inches lon e, three inchss wide at the heol and 4 1-2 at the to?. The apparent length of tho foot itself u eight inches. Dr. Briaton considers the footprints genuine, but is uncertain whether they are so an cient as has been supposed. Dr. Paulinis mentions an epidemic of diphtheria, in 1884, which followi d the arrival of a flock of turkeys in Skiatos, one of the Grecian isles, whero no case of the disease had previously been known for thirty years. Some of the turkeys were sick, and it is believed that the diphtheretic germs were con- veyed from them through the air to the first human Victim. Plants are injured by parasitic fung i in various ways. They are deprived of nourishment, growth is abnormall y ac- celerated or retarded , causiag distor- tion ; not only are green par ts affected , but roots, stems, buds, flowers and fruit ; leaves and fruit fall prematurel y; decay is produced in ripe fruits before and af ter reinoval from tha plant, and valuable plants receive injury from those of less value by ordinary infec- tiOD. A new artificial silk is said to have been prepared at Lyons, Franco, by M. de Chardonnet. The process consists in adding to an etherized solution of nitrated cellulose (the base of gun-cot- ton) a solution of perchloride of iron, and to this mixture a little of a solution of tannic acid in alcohol, when the whole is poured ia a fino jet into water acidulated with nitric acid. The fluid thread becomes consistent, and is drawn off, driod and wound. Tho Bub- stance is supple, transparent, silky in appearance, and very strong. Tho color is gray or black, but may bo changed to suit. A petroleum engine now being ex- hibited in England is attracting much attention. Ia a tank in the bed of the engine is placed the petroleum, which is forced through a pipe into a compart- ment where the oil is convjrted into a fine spray by means of a blast of air. The spray passes into a chamber, and, coming in contact w.th an electric spark obtained from a small battery in the rear, motive power is at once supplied. In construction it is said to be compara- tively simple, and tho engine works with admirable regularity. The piston requires no oiling, tho petroleum vapor supplying the necessary lubrication. Points by a Plumber. "If you want a point or two about cleaning waste-pipes without sending for a plumber," said a retired member of the fraternity to a New York Tele - gram reporter who was complaining of the trials of hou3e-owner3hip, "just lis- ten to me. ''If I were still in tha business T would not givo away what I am going to tell you now, but a3 I'm out of it I do not see why I may not help a friend. "One of the most frequent and try- ing annoyances," he continued, a3 he flashed his $600 diamond ring at the reporter, "is the obstruction to tho free, quick outlet of the waste water of the wash-basin, the bath-tub and kitchen sink. This is caused by a gradual ac- cumulation of small bits of refuse ma- terial, paper, rags, meat bone,or grease, which check and finall y entirel y stop the out-flow of waste, and then the plumber is called to removj the stop- page with his force pump. Sometimes this is accomplished, but often the pipo has to be cut, and there U greit incon- venience and expense. "Ju3t before retiring at night pour into the clogged pipe enoug h li quid soda lye to fill the 'trap,' as it is called —or the bent part of the pipe just be" low the outlet. Be sure that no water runs into it until the next morning. During the night the lye will convert all the ofllal into soft soap, and tho first current of water in the morning will wash it away and leave the pipe as cleaa as new. See? This is practical chem- istry, yet few chemists would ever think it of." Opals Not Uulncky. A man who makei a stul y of stones and precioua things tells me that the superstition about,the opal isdying out. People are getting over all that non- sense, he said. The blac' .c cat sup rsti- tion has vanished, and why not the opal? He says he has had several calls for opals recently, some of the callers reversing the old superstition by saying that they want tho opal so as to change their luck. There is also a new way of setting diamonds for the caw. by which the stones are never still t x :«pt when they are out of the ears. By this new setting the diamonds tremble with every pulsation of the ear, thu3 giving them additional lustre. Even a stone that is oflE-color will shine up to good ad- vantage when thus arranged.—[Chicago Mail. THE NEWS EPITOMIZED Eastern and Middle Stnt.es.

THE NATIONAL GAME. r.K-.-T-riELDER Gore is no longer popular ¦n New York. Mack, Washington's catcher, stands 0 feet -' inches i:i his hose. Cim-ixnati has never yet made a success- ful first trip to tha Knst. T.iomas. of the Cub in Giants, a colored chili, is over six feet iu height. Pitch er Clarkson will go to Australia with theSpilding aggregation. Ci.arkson has pitched in more champion- ship games than any League pitcher. Manager Spaulpino, of the Chicagos, has decided to keep all his new material. Pitcher Kii.roy, of Baltimore, has been ipplving electric treatment to his lame arm. Bu rdock , of Boston, is the only regular League player who has not made a long i.it. Van'Haltren, the Chicago pitcher, is one of the iinest all-round ball players in the League. It i; n singular fact that the tail-ender, Louisville, actually leads the Association in batti ng. Dunlap, of Pittsburg, has played seven- teen consecutive games this season without an error. Mark Twain is an enthusiast regarding baseball, and attends all the games played at Hartford , Conn. Fknelly , Cincinnati's short stop, can throw the ball to first base quicker than any other man in the profession. One-aumed Daily and Louis Say, the well- known profess onals,are playing with a semi- professional club at Norfolk, Ya, It is estimate*! that there are over 000 amateur ball clubs in Chicago, with a mem- bershi p of between 7U00 mid 8000. Pitcher Roach, of Wilkesbnrre, Penn., with seventeen strike-ruts, for the present leads tin 1 season's strike-out record. Tu.HNAN , of the New Yorks, is finding the ball ol tener than any man in the team. He is the home-run hitter of the nine now. Pitchku Bui'Tinton. of the Philadel phias, is to undergo a surjricnl operation for an affection of the eyes. His si ^ ht is so greatly impaired that he can with difficulty see first base. Every year seems to make Ganzel a more valuable man to the Detroits. He has now ieveloped as an all-around player, but his work behind the bat is attracting especial ittentiou. Titi-'omij , Murphy and Slattery appear to be the only new members of the New Yorks n ho have kept up to the standard. Pitcher Cran." may 1 e nil right when he is given more wo rk , while Hatlield labors earnestly all tho time. , but as yet has not shown any brilliancy. Du'sino the last two yoars the Chicago Club has made more money from the sale of players than tho capital stock amounts to. The transfer of Kelly, Clarkson, Gore, Mc- L' onnick, Dalrvmple, and Sunday netted the ;lub $;iO,()OD. The capital stock is only $20,- J0O. Ryan, of Chiengo, is the most spirited boy who is play ing this summer. His conlidence in himself is something wonderful. Anson niin>e!f does not f«co a pitcher with more lelf-pu-asossion than Ryan displays. His field- ing, his ability in the box , his batting and base-running stamp him as a most valuable man. The first player to givo his catcher and lutUelders signs as to the kind of ball he was tbout to pitch was Harry Wright , when he was change pitcher for the famous Rod Stockings of Cincinnati, in 1^70. Harry ivorked tho fast nnd slow ball, and would ilways let his catcher and outfielders know ivlicn lie was going to toss a good one over ;he plate. Shock , of the Washingtons, has accom- plished tho feat twice this season of hitting tor ii home run when there were threo men on Dases. Few batsmen possess the faculty ot keeping cool an,1 of having tho patience to pick out a goo 1 ball at such times, and . on ii•( omit of being over anxious, very few suc- ceed in hitting the ball even lor one base when tho bases are full. The crowd at a. ball match is almost as im- portant a factor in winnine;grimesas are the plny.MS . Tho nin.i that c;tu depend on tho ipecUtors to biick them through thick and thin and st:ind by thorn in weal and woe are ilways rolling up their sleeves and stepping up to the plate in a confidential mnnner with a. wink or two, maybe, for the crowd, even should the score be ten to one against them.
