At the head of the Gulf of Bothnia there is a mountain, on the summiti of which the sun shines perpetually during the five days of June lern, 20th, telet, 22ad and 23rd. Every six hours during the season of con- tinual sunshine a steamer leaves Stockholm crowded with visitors anxious to witness the phenomenon. At the same place during winter the sun disappears and is not seen • for weeks; then it comes in sight again for ten, fifteen or twenty minutes, gradually lengthening its stay, until finally it stays in sight uontinually for upward of 120 hours. According to the Chicago Times, the 'Chicago River is a remarkable stream, and not alone for peculiar and penetrating aroma, but for several other things. All branches measured, the stream is probably not over twenty-five miles long. Yet more bridges have been built over it than any other stream on the globe, and before the present year is ended there will be three sub- marine tunnels beneath its bad, connecting for traffic purposes the three sections of the city.

To this person- age the crooidiles are sacred, in some inex- plicable fashion. The tank, so to call it, is eleoub 150 yards long and 80 yards wide; deep, narrow ehannele intersect it, making islets and banks. In this space Mr. Carless counted over tem hundred reptiles from eight to fifteen feet long and amaller ones "innumerable." They are So tame, in a sense, that it is necessary to poke them with a stick before they will move. Buffa- loes are always standing in the water; the crocodiles i oatle them but uever attack. Any other animal is instantly seized, however. "Tho whole appearance of the place," wrote Mr. Carless, "with its green, slimy, stag- nant waters, and so many of these huge uncouth monsters moving sluggishly about, is disgusting in the extrenae, and it will long be remembered by me as the moat loath- some spot that I ever beheld." The attend- ant priests keep goats for the amusement of picnic parties, or did ; I may hope that this atrocity has been forbiddea.

Some twenty years ago three gmrs, jam landed, paid a visib. One ran across the swamp, stepping on the batiks of the reptiles. Another filled a soda -water bottle with explosives, tossed it into a big orazodile's mouth, and fired the charge. The third threw a perish dog to the most sacred of them all. This last outrage stirred the priests to fury, and the grifs fled for their lives. The very beat story of these reptiles is that suggested, rather than told, by Sir Samu.el Baker in "Albers Nyanza." Returning to Kondo- keret, his adventures over, he beheld one day two vast creatures slip down from an island and vanish. Crocodiles they were in form but antediluvian monsters n size.

DUILDINGEls In tiniee past there hes been some 002IP‘ plaint that too much theory was taught and not enough practice given at the Farmers' College. Through, the inel rumentality of our progreesive Minieter of iegriculture and the liberality of the Ontario Government, thie is being remedied. The Dairy Depart- ment is now able to give practkel, m well theoretical, instruction in thie now most im- portant branch of agriculture. DA.XEE What was formerly the creamery and reeidence for the buttermaker has been re- modelled, some additions made, and other- wise improved, until it movers fairly well the purposes inteecled. The cheese department containe 0 lecture -room, provided with chairs having suit- able arms for taking notes. This room overlooks the working room, The working - room has six vats, curd rail's, presree, hoops, and complete outfits for the manu- facture of Cheddar cheese. The curing room is conveniently boated. The butter department has also a lecture -room ooxn- ma.nding a full view of the work room. Three cream separators, one butter ex- traotor, three ohurns, workers, vats, eta, rnake this department fully equipped for •giving inetruction in the art of butter - making by the lateet improved machinery and in tee beet method. A basemeet under the lecture room serves for creamers, refrigerator, skim milk and buttermilk tanks and general wash -room. The ice house near the refrigerator furnishes material for cooling milk, oream and butter. In nailk,testing, the latest tests are in use every day, while those more commonly known are kept for illustration. Owing to the difficulty of securing suitable books on the eubject, it is not an easy matter to collect a library on dairying, but such as there are we shall have, together with the only reliable source for the latest informa- tion on the dairy, namely, reports, bulletins, agricultural and dairy journals. Additions have also been made to the dairy barn. Stabling, for thirty cows and a number of young stock, is nearly completed. A circular silo, which now contains a good sample of ensilage, was also built adjacent to the stabling. A new piggery provides for the feeding of that indite pensable animal, the hog, in connection with the dairy. The stock of cows com- prises five of the dairy breeds and a num- ber of grades. A record of the pounds of milk and per cent. of fat is kept of each cow. With this equipment our regular students ought to get a fair knowledge of the manu- facture of milk into both butter and cheese. For the benefit of those who cannot spare the time to take the full course, it is our in- tention to start a SPECIAL SHORT C017ESE, commencing February 1st, 1803, and con- tinuing two months. This is designed for the benefit of factorymen and others who are making a specialty of dairying. The courae will be thrown open to ladies also who may desire bo take such a course of instruction. Competent instructors will be employed in each department, while one lecture each day will be given by members of the college staff. Not only scientific dairy practice will be taught, but also as far as time will permit, other scieaces which bear more • or less directly on the subjecb will be treated very briefly. Ex- perts will give lessons on the judging of butter and cheese by points. Teem will be no tuition fee, but the sum of 85 will be charged for the use of chemicals and to cover breakages. The students who pass the practical and written examinations at the end of the term and elSO do satisfac- tory work in a factory for one year, either before or after attending the special course, will be granted a diploma from the college. Every cheese and butter maker of the Province should be a centre of light and knowledge in his own neighborhood, and be able to give patrons usetul advice as to breeding *rattle, characteristics of the dif- ferent breeds, best rations for feeding to produce milk,. how to care for milk, the importance of good milk, and a great many other matters that confront the dairyman every day. For his own sake he should know the best methods of manufacture, be thoroughly acquainted with the latest machines, under- stand how to test milk and divide money to patrons according to per oent. of fat, whether for butter or cheese, and be ready to address his patrons on leading dairy topics at annual meetings, institutes, etc., To do this most makers require more confi- dence, which comes from mingling with men who have made the business a study, and from thinking for themselves. The private dairyman requires to know all that the maker knowe, and a good deal more besides. As we can accommodate but a limited number during the first year, those who apply first will be allowed to enter up to the number of fifty. Board may be obtained near the College or in the city (li miles distant) at $3 to per week. The total cost while at the college need not exceed $40 for the full course. H. EC DEAN. Ont. Agr. College, Guelph. Darwin's Theory Applied. In Berlin there lives a savant who is an ardent votary of the theory of evolution. Not long ago, when at the seaside he caught a live herring on which he resolved to test the &mummy of the Darwinian doc- • trines, says the Independence Romaine. Every day the gentleman took a spoontul of sea water out of the aquarium in whioh he had placed the herring, substituting in lien thereof a spoonful or fresh water. He continued this process until the aquarium contained nothing but fresh water. Its occupant was then consigned to a large glass bowl. The herring centinued live and healthy. Still our learned philosopher had -by no means completed his investi- gations. Every day he took a spoon- ful of fresh water out of the bowl until not a drop was left. A bird. cage was now substituted for the gime bowl. The herring was happier than over ; now and then it would uttor a cry of vexation when the pro- fessor caressed ir too roughly or failed to supply it at the proper time with the little patties specially prepared for the interest- ing creature. The herring grew sleek and fat, but after a few weeks its " tamer " noticed that it exhibited signs of melan- choly. The professor spent hours in trying to fathom the cause of these unhappy symp- toms on the part of his protege. At length he discovered tbat the creature was suffering from indigestion ; it had evi- dently rained its stomach by a too free in- dulgence in pastry. " Donnerwetter 1" the philosopher exclaimed "1 quite forgot to give the animal something to drink 1" He quickly, filled a large wooden bowl with water and put it in the cage. Next morn- ing on going to inspect the cage the learned gentleman found bhe creature dead; it had dipped its head in the water trough --the herring was drowned! A MONO MILLS MIRACLE.

The Story et George nevinitenneepicas for Thirty 'Secure—At e.ast nind4 Genet' In a Steeple Way—The Story Corroborated by Reliable Witnesses, (Orangeville Poet.) For several months the Post, in common wibh many other journals of Ontario, have been publishing accounte of miraculous owes in various parts of Canada and the United Seatee. We must confine, however, that we have paid little or no attention to these reported miraolea and probably oer indifference would have continued to the end had it not been for a little iecident that occurred in our office when Washburn's cir- cus was in Orangeville a few weeks ago. Mr. Stewart Afason, a respectable farmer of Albion township, called at our office on business on that occasion, and as he wee leaving we happened to mit him—a course generally pursned by the newspaper man in search of news—if there was any - anything new in his vicinity. He replied that there was nothing very startling, and followed this up by asking us if we had heard of the wonderful cure of a man named Hewitt, at Mono 'veil's. We confessed ignorance, and then Mr. Mason mad that from whet he had heard it was undoubtedly another miraculoue cure through the %genes' of Dr. Williams' famous Pink Pine. We had become so thoroughly imbued with the idea that the various details of miraolee in other parte were only a new end catching fake in the booming of patent medicines that we must admit Mr. Moon's intimation of a genuine local cure at once excited our interest. We took a note of the name and quietly made up our mind to investigate the matter at our earliest con- venience. We came to the conclusion that there must be something in it, for Mr. Mason, a respectable and reliable young farmer, would not for a moment be suspected of equivocating on a matter in which he had any interest, much less in one which did not concern him. A few days ago the Post despatched a representative to Mono Mille to make a full investigation of the alleged cure of George Hewitt, He first called on Mr. John Aldous, proprietor of the Commercial Hotel, and after a few usual preliminaries asked him if he knew a man named Hewitt, in the village. Is that the old man that warent able to move a short time ago, and is now getting all righe so fast ?" queried Mr. Aldous. The reporter nodded assent, and in less time than it takes to tell it the quill -driver and the obliging Mr. Aldous were on their way to the neat and comfort- able home of Mr. Samuel Benson, with whom it was learned Mr. Hewitt resided. The Benson home is in the eastern suburb of the village and upon the reporter and Mr. Aldous calling, they were courteously received by the busy housewife, who was not too busy, however, to spare time to tell the Post all about her interest- ing boarder and his miraculous cure. Mr. Benson was not at home and the .Post at once suspected that a we:11%1139,n of between 50 and 60 years, who o • pied a chair in a corner of the cosy room, es no other than the famous George Hewitt,. The surmise proved correct. Mr. Hewitt shook hands with the scribe, remarking as he did so, "I could not have taken hold of your hands a few months ago." When the object of the visit was announced, Mr. Hewitt, who is an intelligent, well-educated man, began to dilate in glowing terms on the wonderful change that had come over him. "Shall I tell you the whole story ? " asked he of the reporter, and upon the latter intimating his desire to hear all, Mr. Hewitt gave him the following narrative: To Raise More Corn.

The reporter could scarcely believe that Mr. Hewitt's voice, now so silvery and re- sonant, was ever the equeaky, feeble and. indistinct organ of speech 10 hafl indica.ted, and the scribe questioned /dm. Benson on this point. She said that every word Mr. Hewitt had related was literally true, and on the question of the restoration of his voice she was corroborated by Mr. Aldous, and other respectable witnesses whom the reporter met in the village later in the day. Mr. Aldous said he was not surprised at the hesitancy of people about believing the wonderful care. He did not think that he himself could credit it if he had not been rio eye -witness of the whole affair. He had known Mr. Hewitt for years, knew thathie former utter helplessness was as he had de- scribed, and either he had th say it was not Mr. Hewitt who sat before him or to admit the miraculous escape. "These pills," said Mr. Aldous, "are certainly a wonder. ful remedy." The reporter shook hands with Mrs. Benson and the cheerful Mr. Hewitt, and started forth into the street a doubting Thomas no longer, first promising to trans- mit th the Dr. Willie.nue Medicine Coe Mr. Hewitt's lavish expressions of thanks for what their wonderful Pink Pills had done for him. "Here we are," thought the scribe, "in .the cold and practical nine- teenth century, but here's something right here in this little village of Mono Milk mighty closely bordering on tlae miraculous all the same.' After leaving the Benson home the re- porter sought out Postmaster Mills, whom he found equally eloquent in his praise of the wonderful Pink Pills. "They're cer- tainly a great remedy," said he, "and any one that doubts this has only to be told about George Hewitt's case. I suppose you have heard the whole story, and there's no use in my wearying you. The pills have undoubtedly worked the amazing °flange thitt is to be noticed in Hewitt'a condition. It was I first sent for the pills for him, and I can certify to the striking change." The reporter further learned that the Pink Pills were kept for sale by Mr. Mills, and that the demand for them was large and. increasing The represents-. tive of the Post conversed' with many other citizens of Mono Mills regarding Mr. Hewitt's case and found all agreed on the question of his former condition, his restoration and the remedy. Every one in and around the village, 1 fact, appeared to know all about the cure, and Pink Pills seemed to be a household word in that sec- tion. On the Post's return to Orangeville, Mr. Richard Allen, ex -Warden of Dafferia county, dropped into our office. The ex - warden resides about three miles from Mono Mille, and was asked if he had heard any- thing about whet Dr. Williams' Pink Pith had done for Mr. Hewitt. He had heard all about the case, and was unhesitating in expressing the opinion that this was striking instance of great results following the use of the pills. "I'm not much of a believer in wonderful cures I read about," said the exwarden, "but I have known Hewitt for years, and this change in him is certainly astounding." The Post was sur- prised re hear that Dr. Williams' Pink Pilla were extensively used ill this section, bat after the Hewitt narrative it was not sur- prised to hear of great beneficial results following the use of the great remedy. We are disposed to conclude from what some parties told us that the base imitation bud - nese is already entered upon by unprinoi- pled persons, and the public will do well to ' see that the Pink Pills they purchase have all the marks of genuineness advertised by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company.

HEWITT'S WONDERFUL STORY. "In Old Ireland, thirty years ago, I was scaling a stone wall one day when I fell backward and had my epine injured so seri- ously that a short time later I became almost entirely disabled. The fatal effects et the fall were gradually but only too rapidly felt, and look iug back on a stretch of time extending five years over a quarter of a century, there is little more in the pros- pect than a picture of pain and gloom and suffering About twenty-eight years ago I came to Canada, and am known around the country here for miles. Until twelve years ago I could sit on a chair when placed on it, and manage to move myself around a little. Then even that comfort was suddenly taken from me. One day I was unintentionally thrown off theohair, and the seoond fall may he said to have done all but end. my life. There was not a ray of hope for me, not a sign of a break in the dark clouds. Ever since then my. pitiable condition is known to every one in these parts. All power to use either arms or hands, legs or feet, com- pletely left me. I could be propped up• - right ma chair, but something had to be put in front of me to keep me from falling forward. Usually a chair like this," and as Mr. Hewitt spoke he lifted and drew for- ward a chair which was near him, "was placed in front of me and on this I would rest my arms. Not only was all power left my Umbel, but every feeling likewise. Why, you could run a needle right into my flee& and I would not know what you were doing unless I saw the act. A merited of flies might light and revel upqm me, but I would be in happy ignorance of the tact. When I was laid in bed I could not get up or move unaided if I was given all creation. The only part of my system in which any strength seemed to remain wee my neck, but at last even my head fell .forward on my breast, and I was indeed a pitiable sight. My voice, formerly as clear and ringing as it is to -day, seemed to go like the strength and feeling from the rest of me, and sometimes I would scarcely be able to make myself understood. I know you hear me -grille incredulity, for you can scarcely believe that the helpless and hopeless in- valid I have described is the man who now site before you, cheery, vigorous and hope- ful. On the legs, which a short time ago were helpless and seemed useless, 1 can now walk with a little assistance, being ablelent evening to go to my room with my arm oh Niro. Benson shoulder. Why, man, a few months! ago I could not do that on the vomitus of inheriting the kingdom of heaven." Here Mr. Hewitt stamped both feet on the floor Wit h much vigor and en- thusiasm. "In those days," he resumed, " if I ever wrote anyth 11 was by plac- ing the handle of the pen betweeh my: teeth and getting through with the work in that way. Don't ask me if I tried the best doc- tors. I spent. a f 'rtitne, thou,,,ealR of dol. lava in trying to F.01 or r.<1.
