()tired by Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
Mrs. P. D. HALL, 217 Genessee St,,
I aoll;port, N. Y., says
Over thirty years ago, I remember
heaelug my father describe the wonder-
ful curative effects of Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. During a recent attack of La
Grippe, which assumed the form of a
catarrh, soreness of the lungs, acorn -
puled by an aggravating cough, I
used various remedies and prescriptions.
While some of these medicines partially
alleviated the coughing during theday,
none or them afforded me any relief from
that spasmodic action,ofthe lungs which
would seize me the moment I attempted
to lie down at night, After ten or twelve
Such nights, I was
Nearly to Despair,
and had about decided to sit up all night
in my easy chair, and procurewhat
sleep I could in that way. It then oc-
curred to me that I had a bottle of
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, I took a
spoonful of this preparation in a little.
water, and was able to lie clownwithout
coughing. In 'a few moments, I fell
asleep, and awoke in the morning
greatly refreshed and feeling much
better. I took a teaspoonfiil of the Pec-
toral
eatoral every night for a week, then grad-
ually decreased the dose, and in two
weeks my cough was cured."

The formal opening of the Manobester
Ship Canal to the traffic of the world was
accomplished on Monday amid the greatest
p
enthusiasm, When the Queen arrived at
the station the cheering of the crowds which
occupied every inch of available space, was
deafening. Her Majesty at ones entered.

seat to the city in advance for the p rp eat,
and was driven to the town hall, where she
was presented with an address. From the
town hall the Queen and her party were
driven to Trafford Wharf.
All along the eight miles of streets
through which the Queen was driven the
greatest enthusiasm prevailed. Hundreds.
of thousands of people lined the way, ban-
ners, flags, floral arches, Venetian masts
were visible everywhere, and the air re -
:founded with cheers.:rhe Queen was escort-
ed from the station to the town hall and
thence to Trafford Wharf by a guard of
honor consisting of a field officers' escort of
the 14th Hussars, As the procession left
the station a troop of Yeomanry fell in at
the rear and accompanied the. Royal car-
riage to Albert square, The various guards
of honor comprised about 1000 men. About
5000 troops guarded the streets through
which the royal procession passed. Arriv-
ing at Trafford Wharf the Queen embarked
on board the Royal yacht Enchantress,
which at once steamed up the canal in the
vicinity os Salford Docks, where she form-
ally declared the Manchester Ship Canal
open to commerce.
SALFORD Sl FETE.
Returning to Trafford Wharf Her Ma-
jesty re-entered her carriage and was
driven to Salford, where she was presented
with an address by 'the mayor and the
other authorities of the corporation. The
enthusiasm of the people of Salford was
manifest quite as marked as that of the
people of Manchester. The streets and
were magnificently decorated

and the inhabitants turned out en masse to
take part in the celebration of the occasion.
After leaving Salford Her Majesty was
escorted to the station, and at '7.330 o'clock
started for Balmoral. During the exercises

CANADIAN NICKEL.
A Prospect That the Sudbury District Will
Have Boom.
Information has been received at Ottawa.
from Washington by a member of the
Canadian Senate that the Government of
the United Stateshas in contemrlation
the erection of extensive works for the
smelting of nickel ores, which would give
a great impetus to mining in the Sodbury
district. The American Government have
evidently awakened to the importance of
our nickel deposits. which are known to
be the most valuable and extensive in the
world, and it is said, will locate their works
somewhere in ,,the state of New York,
near the international boundary. It has
been ascertained that in the extradition of
nickle from the matte by existing methods,
a very valuable constituent is lost, and it
was probably for this reason that some
experiments made in the United States
seem to indicate that nickle plate was not
likely to turn out in point of strength quite
as successful as the original inventors an-
ticipated. The American Government,
however, sent an expect metallurgist to
Germany, where, for six months, he studied
the processes there employed for the produc-
tion of nickel. His investigations resulted
in the discovery that to obtain the highest,
quality of nickel, it is necessary that it be
EXTRACTED DIRECTLY PROM THE ORE,
and without the intermediate process to
which all along it has been subjected on
this continent. So satisfactory have been
the results under the new process that the
Government at Washington recently obtain-
ed from Congress an appropriation of $300,e
000 for the purchase of a suitable site, and
it is said to be their intention shortly to
erect works" for the treatment of ores by
the direct method at the cost of probably a
million dollars. In all likelihood, the
works will be located, as stated
near the
e
international boundary, since the supply of
ore must be drawn direr,'t from the Cana-
dian nickle deposits. This action of the
United States Government is taken to in-
dicate an immense revival in the very near
future of the nickel mining industry in the
Sudbury district.
SOME RECENT TESTS.
Tests made recently with plate composed
in part of nickel produced by the new pro-
cess have been so satisfactory that there
can be no doubt the authorities at Washing-
ton contemplate its extensive use, not only
for the armor of warships, but for the
strengthening of land fortifications as well,
It may be remarked in this connection
that another, and perhaps even more exten-
sive, use /or nickel steel is in a fair way of
being opened up by its employment in the
manufacture of nickel steel rails. Improve.

Mules Delirious With Pleasure.
"I saw an odd sight in Luzerne county a
few clays ago," said a traveler from the
West the other day. "Six mules that had.
for four years hauled cars in the lower
workings of a coal shaft to and from the
foot of the shaft had to be brought up
owing to the flooding of the mine on account
of fire. The mules in all that time had
seen no light stronger than the flicker of
the httih Davy lamps the miners. carried.
The sun was in its zenith when they reach-
ed the surface, and the atmosphere was as
clear as crystal.
" The astonished creatures closed their
eyes to shut out the flood of Strong light,
and kept them" tightly closed while they
were being driven to a pasture lot a mile
distant and turned Ioose. There they stood
trembling as if they were afraid something
evil was about to befall them. Presently
they half opened their eyes and peered
around in open-mouthed amazement. It was
clear they couldn't understand tend it,
"When they had become accustomed to
the sunlight they elevated their heads and
slowly swept their gaze over euim piles,sky
ailountains and horizon again and again,
Toward sundown they broke into a chorus
of joyous brays, the like of which was never
heard from mules before.
''After a quarter of an hour of that music
they took to kicking, jumping, whirling"
around like teetotums and rolling on the
sod as if they had gone mad. For four
days they spent their time gazing at the
new sights of field and sky, refusing food
and water, not even nibbling at the grass,
and not as much as blinking an eye in
sleep."

OUR AGRICULTURAL STAPLES.
Enough Wheat And Flour to Last the -
Present crop Year.
At this timeof'the year, as a rule, the
people who have agricultural produce to
spare expect to part with it at relatively good
prices. Buyers are supposed to be keeping
their eyes open for evidences of scarcity,
actual or tocome, and to be preparing for
any e advance byquietly
taking
all they can get at the low prices of the
moment. But this year the staples of agri-
cultural production show no signs of pro-
bable exhaustion before harvest time.There
will be enough wheat and flour to last out
the, present crop -year and to support con-
sumption farfnto the next h one. The whole
question on which the problem of the wheat
market turns is, whether there will be any
shortage in the next crop that will leave
room for the surplus from last crop to be
disposed of at good prices. If there should
be a prospect of such a shortage there would
be a movement to get a hold of supplies now
offering, and prices would go up. But pre-
sent indications promise
AN AVERAGE YIELD
so that the market has little to hope for
from the contingency of a short crop. At
the moment, buyers are not stimulated by
the prospect either of a scarcity before har-
vest or one after it. The prices of wheat
and flour consequently remain low. The.
export demand for wheat is rather active,
but if one of its effects should be to raise
the price it would probably drop off. The
hay market is even more disappointing, for
more was expected from it. Our first
shipments to the British market. were
made during a time of scarcity there, and
served the useful purpose of breaking
through the prejudices that had previously
stood in the way of selling on that market.
Canadian hay having been introduced and
found acceptable, despite its defamation
by British growers and by the British
agents of exporters from other countries,
is believed to have a bright future before
it as an export. But though there seem.
ed reason for expecting a good replenish-
ing demand this month on British account,
the' market has been in a very bad state
ever since the opening of navigation, and
seems to be getting worse. The cattle
market is probably
TEE MOST DISCOIIRAGING
of all. Last week it seemed impossible for
it tbe worse, but it has again declined.
The necessity of slaughtering cattle as soon
as they are landed on the other side keeps
the market constantly overstocked, with
fresh beef that must be sold at once. The.
exclusion u ion ofIm'
e mettle thuso
w rkao
t the
advantage of the British consumers in towns
and cities even more than to that of British
farmers, whose prices are depreciated by
the intensified competition. if the cattle
landed in Britain were allowed to graze
until the beef is wanted in the ordinary
course of the consumptive demand, it
would be better for British cattleraisers.
The present arrangement forces beef on the
market and keeps prices depressed. if the
entry of our live cattle continues to be pro-
hibited, it will pay our exporters to slaugh
ter their own animals and ship in refriger-
ators as the exporters of Australia do. The
cheese market, it is cheering to observe,
does not sympathize with the markets for
most of the other great staples, The stock
of Canadian cheese in England is now
small, and is wanted at higher. prices.
Canadian ., pea•fed bacon also commands
good prices and seems t,p find a conspicuous
market in London, despite the keen com-
petition of and established taste for, Irish
and Danish. The Canadian shipping trade
of course suffers, as drill markets abroad
check exportation. Even in cases of those
exports which are maintained in the face of
very low prices—as wheat, for example --a
great proportion of the shipments are hot
made from a Canadian pert, but from New

JAKE AND THE WHITE BEAR.
An Exciting Experience in the Rigging
of a Vessel in Arc! to Waters,
There is an old sailor named Jake, re-
cently returned from an Arctic cruise, who
has made up his mind not to go on another
whaling expedition, no matter what hap-
pens. The reason is this.
On one occasion during his lete voyage
Jake was on watch in the night—that is, as
much night as it ever gets up there in sum-
mer. The sun had been down about anhour,
and would rise again about an hour later.
It was a beautiful night as the ship lay
there in the ice, and the air seemed s
lating with a phosphorescent glow`i that
penetrated everywhere and made no shad-
ows. On all sides the pack ice lay close to
the vessel, and reached for miles in every
direction, broken occasionally by a large
berg or the faint outlines of another ship.
The silence was protoun d; it seemed to pro-
duce!), roaring sound like the waves of a
distant ocean. Such surroundings will put
a person in a semicomatose state from which.
the slightest sound will awaken him with a
start.
Jake suddenly saw something white in
the gloom climbing the mast. Itis first
impulse was to jump to the deck, but be-
fore he could act upon it the white object,
crawled through the lubber hole, and Jake
then saw

realized that he was in a most 'dangerous
position, and began to think of means to

below, but they couldn't hear. He tried to
get out under the canvas, but the beast
grabbed him and pulled him back. It be-
gan thumping umping him, and every time Jake
attempted to move away it would growl.
Suddenly his eyeslighted on a rope hang.

the frame, all the valuable parts of the ordin-
ary patterns are retained and applied to the
folding bicycle. That this invention is
right in line with the demands of the times
and will tend greatly to popularize cycling
can be readily seen. One of the chief ob-
jections to the bicycle as at present con-
structed is the care and bother of it when
not in. use. When a saving in"'s ace is
secured without materially affecting the
symmetry and beauty of the bicycle as at
present constructed, and without adding
materially to its weight or cost, onecan
readily see the value of this invention and
what a future it promises to this mode of
travel and sport.
