If you have a loathing for food there is no use of forcing it down, tor it will not be digested. : You must restore the digestive organs to their natural strength and cause the food td be digested,' when an appetite will come, and with it a re lish for food. , , The tired, languid feeling ' will give place to vigor and energy ; then you will put flesh on yonr bones and become strong.

Crafty': Red ' Men Who Adapt Thel BSorta to the Weather. . - ' . AH the Indian, tribes had rain-mak ers. and some are yet left. . This is one of their methods of operation, explains the Xcw York Tribune. A large body of Crow Indians had gathered, all decked but in their best finery. Two elderly men retired a short distance and seemed to be mumbling to each other something' like prayers or rnVoca. tions; after some time -a fire was made ou. the bank Of the stream, when the two rain-makers gave an order and a young man plunged into the river, which was there very deep. When he enme up, lie- had a blue catfish in his hand, which, one of the old men took and threw' into the fire, the tribe look. ing on in perfect silence. Then there was more mumbling, accompanied by various contortions and gesticulations. when the gatberingdispersed. Itrained that night. Perhaps, on the whele, the Indian rain-maker is more generally successful than the civilized one occa sionany appearing on tne frontier in times of 'drought, the former having a Bhrewdor And more experienced fore cast of weather probabilities and put ting in his incantations at " the right tune. - - GIVES OFF LIGHT. An Ever Active Glow Issnea from - Recent Ult ot Trim I urn. ' In a recent lecture before the Hoyal society .Lord Ueivia Vindicated the cor rectness of Volta's early theories in relation to contact electricity. He showed , that when a 'zinc plate and copper plate are brought into contact with one another audthen separated one was charged with positive electrici ty and the; other with negative. s He further demonstrated that this was not due to oxidation by air or the moisture of the atmosphere, as is stated in the text-books of the day. Lord Kelvin exhibited other experiments illustrat ing electrification produced by means of dissimilar metals, and shewed some curious properties possessed by urani Dm. If a plate of this metal was con nected with an electrometer . and touched by a plate of aluminum posir tive electrification was produced, grad ually changing past zero to negative. He also uemonstrateor that the rays given off by- uranium in a dark room are a constant property of the sub stance and not a slow radiation, of previously absorbed light, as has been claimed, but he- could offer no solution of the Inysterious action of this metal, BUSINESS VICISSITUDES.

The annals of commerce are not en tirely without a siiice of romance There is a little retributive justice that savors of the novelist's aft in. the way the spoiler isrsomertimes spoiled In busi ness relations. In' an article entitled "Made in Japan," the Pall Mall Gazette shows how nations have encroached upon one another's . business, and reaped1 for a time a rich harvest, only to see the same tactics employed by a rival people, and be forced to stand aside while the trade slipped from their hands into the keeping of another na tion. : In old times the Dutch, by importing English clay, madlea good profit out of imitations of Chinese porcelain, and presently the Dutch product became es tablishcd in the markets of the world as Delft ware. ' . But 4he' Dutchman was no more se cure in bis profitable trade than bad been !his predecessor, the Chmaman The English potters took to copying the Dutch patterns, and sold' their pottery much' cheaper,, and the north of. Eng land became headquarters for the Delft china. . - . . - Again, however, the spoiler has been spoiled. Of late the Japanese have made themselves masters of the art of repror cucmg the patterns best, liked, in- Eng- landi and have beg-ursto encroach on the domain long monopolized1 by the Eng lish potter., -The Japanese prothiet is finer and stronger, and above all, cheap er than the best Ergbsh ware, and Japan is providing the markets - with goods which were originally a Chine.se monopoly. - CONTINUOUS STREET 'RAILS. The Contraction and Expansion of the Metal Were Easily Overcome.'' Continuous rails, made up of ordinary rails length weJdcd together electrical ly, arc in use on many miles of electric street railways in-the United) States, says Cassier's Magazine, and with ex cellent results, too, having shown them ' selves to constitute an ideal ' track. Whatever misgivings may have arisen at o;:e time aso the serious pranks which expansion and contraction might play with, such continuous tracks have been vfrcctively 'allayed, as experience has shown . that the difficulties likely to grow from "fhese causes- are not extraor '.iiaary. ' It is interesting, however, to note that of the. troubles fromtcmpera turc variations in the track, that due to a temperature lower than the one at which the rails were welded is the only one requiring serious consideration. It isi found in the tendency of the rail to shrink in a longitudinal direction, and this must be counteracted by a puil on the end's of the rail enfficient to produce a corresponding amount of stretch. Temperatures above that- at which the rails were'-welded -cause compression. and this has never been found' to make trouble where the track was at all sec cured by the roadbed.- : ''!: '. Experience, -therefore, would seem to point to the winter season as the time for welding continuous, track, as then the rails are materially contracted', and, though exceptionally cold snaps may be productive of a slight state of tension m the rails, yet tne maximum .stress wOuld be nothing like-that in rails welded1 in the summer, andiprobably far below the strength of the welds. . ; Cuticura '- ir&tl CXtr-- Soap Purifies v and Beautifies' - .'
