A Nw nnd Incealoni ProceM for Fro- dalnir Oirgtn from Solid CASTLES IN THE AIR. ONE OF DR. CUPID'S PRESCRIPTIONS. That I,ove sometimes cures disease is a fact that has recently been called to the attention of the public by a prominent physician and college professor. In some tervous diseases of women, such as hys teria, this physician gfives instances where Komen were pnt in a pleasant frame of mind, were made happy by falling- in love, and in consequence were cured of their nervous troubles the weak, nervous sys tem toned and stimulated by little Dr. Cupid became strong and vigorous, al most without their knowledge. Many a woman is nervous and irritable, fels drag ged down and worn out, for no reason that she can think of. She may be ever so much in love, but Dr. Cupid fails to cure her. In ninety -nine per cent, of these cases it is the womanly organism which requires attention; the weak back, dizzy spells and black circles about the eyes, are only symptoms. Go to the source of the trouble and correct the irregularities, the drains on the womanly system and the other symptoms disappear. So sure of it is the World's Dispensary Medical Associa tion, proprietors of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, that they offer a $500 reward for women who cannot be cured of leucor rhe.i, female weakness, prolapsus, or fall ing of the womb. All they ask is a fair and reasonable trial of their means of cure. Dr. Tierce's Pleasant Pellets clear the complexion and sweeten the breath, they cleanse and regulate the stomach, liver and bowels and produce permanent benefit and do not re-act on the system. One is a gentle laxative. "The Common Sense Medical Adviser" is sent free, paper-bound, for 21 one-cent stumps to pay expense of mailing only. Send 31 stamps for cloth-bound copy.

The ethics of bicycle borrowing are beginning1 to agitate wheeling circles now that What is termed the legitimate riding season is at hand. Are cyclists expected to allow other people to ride their bicycles? This is the great ques tion. In discussing it a genial and well known wheelman, who has suffered per haps as ni'uch as anyone from the bor rowing habit, as practiced by other cyclists, said: "From the frequency with which re quests 'cr the 'lofin of your wheel' arc made by some jMiople one might be pardoned for thinking that the sole mission in this world of the owner of a bicycle vns to lend it to all his friendis ami acquaintances. Xow, as a matter ot fact, no one has the least excuse for making such a request of the owner of a bicycle, and owners should firmly and emphatically refuse to comply witJa them when made. If a man or a wom an cannot afford to pay for t lie amuse ment ot' cycling they oucht to forego it, 1 do not mean by this that if an unusual ly tri. ! fi:i and !rood-;;;i ( u-red friend of fers to lend a I'ieyeie one is morally bound 1o refuse it, but I do mean that no one oi:.rlii to 1 .surprised or offended if a reqiie.-t for the loan of a wheel is iv f use. I. "A bicycle is not a cheap, easily re plaenl article, such an a baseball bat or a pair of skates. Against the borrowing of stieh 1 hinra there i no law, but your w heel is a dili'erent mal cr. No one, not even the most expert rii'er, can guaran tee it against misha;'. even if the acci dent ! only the pui;e;iire of a tire. Too often, how ever, the pitfalls which beset the nwt wary rider are far more serious. The dnngus of crowded street, where it seem. the chronic lxr- row'r of bicycles most doth like to ride, Hide is no need to enlarge upon. They are. x common that the spectacle, of a uh i oeing extricated fioni beneath a beer wagon, a street car or a cab, no h-rger p. t tracts a crowd, even on I5ro.nl v?:y. lint even in h s.s frequented iroadu a eyeiis; cannot always avoid d.imrcr. r.ur nsure immunity for the machine he is j-; ! : ; ir - Accidents, how ever, undesir able they are, are of comparatively sriiall ivoment s.o loni' as the damaged wheel is your ow n. but if it is the prop erty of tome "lie else the case assumes a different -inip1e. ion. Few jrople en joy the process of confessing that the borrowed machine has conic to grief vhiie in their hands, and I surpect that few even of the most good-natured of friends are r.ot moved to regiet their un.sel.ishiiess when the mangled re mains of their machine are brought home. Vevcr lend your whe 1. and sit down mo-t ; ggressively on ail w ho .make a request for a loan of it. These ehmnic bifycle W.rrowrs should be TU'ht lessons." y. S:;n. I). L.

The progress of invention in sub marine navigation ha stimulated ef forts to produce oxygen by cheaper and easier methods. If oxygen, the vital element in air, can be supplied as wanted, the length of time that men can remain under water nxny be indefi nitely prolonged. A process of making oxygen, invented by George F. Jaubert, a French scientist, promises to answer the requirement, says Science. Iiis object was to find a solid substance which would produce oxygen as cal cium carbide produces acetylene gas. He selected for the purpose a peroxide of sodium, or of potassium, which can be cheaply manufactured by electro- enemicai means. it is called oxy- hthe." and is made in little cubes and pellets, some only half an inch in diam eter. When decomposed with water it gives off oxygen. Two or three ounces of this substance supply enough oxy gen to enable a diver to remain under water for an hour. By suitable appa ratus the carbonic oxide produced by respiration is withdrawn into the oxy gen generator, and fresh oxygen take Ha plac.

THE SCOUT'S RIDE. 3 CANOPIED FIELDS. Manr lerM of Tobeeo In the Con lcut Valler CTre4 wltk uift Tsl, Christmas day, 1862, found the Army of the Potomac in winter quarters near Falmouth, Va., writes Major George F. Williams in The Rider ami Driver. "With that elasticity of spirit so characteristic of the veteran soldier, the Union troops had already recovered from the effects of that terrible battle at Fredericksburg, when the several corps were buffeted by Lee's guns on St. Mary's Heights. Many a familiar face was missing from the ranks, but convalescents were rapidly arriving from the hospital, and the army was preparing for its approaching spring and summer campaign, which ended at Gettysburg. While his staff was exchanging 1 General Hooker Bummoned to his pres ence Jim White, one of the headquarters scouts. "White," said the general, "I learn from Washington that it is believed that the rebs contemplate a movement through the Loudon valley.

That the great cloth canopies can withstand storms was proved a year ago last July, when a hail-storm caused much damage to crops in open fields, but the acres of covered tobacco escaped in jury. The cost of the shade is from $200 to $360 per acre. I will be in the valley." "I hope to see you then in five days." "If I get back at all, sir, you will see me on New Year's eve. It can't be don any quicker." " v ery well. Go and get your pass." It was a great disappointment for Jim White, this being summoned for danger ous duty on Christmas day, for he had Intended being one of the guests of a comrade who had received a fat turkey from home. But, putting aside all thought of the proposed festivity, Jim got his pass for the picket line, and sad dling his horse rode away from headquarters.

Jim, however, knew the good qnal ities of his beast, for they had often been proved in critical moments. Always adopting the character of a Virginia farmer, Jim's nhaggy horse aided in the deception, and only those who knew his real character would recognize a famous ecout in the queer picture he made in the saddle. "Seems to nie," said the scout, solilo quizing, "those people in Washington are always finding mare's nests. Here 1 am in the Loudon and not a reb in sight." As he uttered the words, Jim came to another road which crossed the one he hal been following. In an instant he discovered the approach of a Confederate cavalry patrol. Accustomed to such perils, Jim very coolly checked his steed and waited for the little party. "Whar yeou cum from?' demanded the cavalry leader as he and his men rode up. "Bin down in Aldie," drawled Jim. "Wont to see how things looked down thar." "B'long to the army?' "Well, not exactly, though I've done my sharo toward tmnmng out tue Yanks."

Professor Craig relates ho wan exceed ingly ;n:iioyi;ig and costly mistake was ui.uli' by an Jnglish nrni or seedsmen in Idling orders from this country for seed ot i li!-r rape with the seed or the com mon bird r;;ne. Professor Craig inti mates that most of the seed sent out to f irmrs by seedsmen has been from this importation of bird rape seed, and it ir to be fear, d that nearly all who half made a trial of rape this year will have their troiihb for nothing. Profex-or Craig states the difference betwei n the two kinds of rape, which is lhat the bird seed plant blossoms while the other does not the first year. Before he left -Malison (about the 25th inst.) Mine of the rape on the college farm had revealed its character by its blossom and w;is prlmptly plowed under, and this course l'role.-sor Craig recommends vith all li. lds of rape which are iu bloom. Th error is particularly exas perating and may set back many year the iniroduetion of this valuable foddel plant. Bi'o. dcr'a Gazette.
