A MEDICINE, NOT A DRINK. High Authority! Hop Bitters is not, in any sense, an alcoholic beverage or liquor, and could not be sold, for use, except to persons desirous of obtaining medicinal bitters. 3KEEN B. IUUM, U. S. Cotn’r Internal Rev WAsnofdTo- ..0., Sept. 34,1879. Dear Sir—W liv don’t you get a certifi cate from Co). W. H. W., of Balti more, showing how lie cured lnmsolf of drunkenness by the help of IIop Bitters. Ilis is n wonderful case. He is well known in Rochester, N. Y., by all the drinking people there. _ lie is known in this city, Cincinnati, New Orleans, New York; in fact, all over the country, as he lias spent thousands of dollars for rum. I honestly believe his card would be worth thousands of dol lars to you in this city and Baltimore alone, and make thousands of sober men by inducing the use of your Bitters. J. A. W. Milton, Del., Feb. 10, 1880. Having used Hop Bitters, the noted remedy for debility, nervousness, in digestion, etc., I have no hesitation in Baying that it is indeed an excellent medicine, and recommend it to any one as a truly tonic hitters. Respectfully, Rev. Mns. J. H. Ellgood. I declined to insert your advertise ment of IIop Bitters last year, because I then thought they might not be promo tive of the cause of Temperance, but find they are, and a very valuable medicine, myself and wife having been greatly benefited by them, ana I tako great pleasure in making them known. Rev. John Seaman. Editor Home Sentinel, Alton, N. Y. Scirio, N. Y., Dec. 1, 1879. I am the pastor of the Baptist church here and an educated physician. I am not in practice, but am my solo family physicinn, and advise in many chronic cases. Over a yoar ago I recommended your Hop Bitters to my invalid wife, who has been undor medical treatment of Albany’s best physicians several years. Slio lias been greatly boncliicd and still uses the medicine. I believe she will become thoroughly cured of her various complicated diseases by their use. We both recommend them to our friends, many of whom have also been cured of their various ailments by them. Ret. E. R. Warren. Cured of Drinking. A young friend of mine was cured of nn insatiable thirst for liquor that had bo prostrated ills system that lie was unable to do any business. Ho was en tirely cured by the use of Hop Bitters. It allayed all that burning thirst; took away the appetite for liquor; mado his nerves steady, and ho hns remainod a sober and steady man for more than two years, nnd has no desire to return to Iris cups, and I know of n number of others that have boon cured of drinking by it.” —From a Leading Railroad Official, Chi> cago, III. Wicked for Clergymen, “ I believe it to bo all wrong and even wicked for clergymen or other public men to bo led into giving testimonials to quack dootors or vile stuffs called xnodicincs, but when a really morltori- ous article is mado up of common valu able remedies known to all, nnd that all physicians use and trust in daily, we should freely commend it. I therefore cheerfully and hoartily commend Hop Bitters for tho good they have done mo and my friends, firmly believing they have noequal for fumilv uso. I will not be without them. Rov. -, Washington, D. (J." 1 good N. Y., a strong temperance man, suf fered with kidney trouble, neuralgia nnd dizziness almost to blindness, over two years after be was advised that Hop B1 tters wot d cure him, because he was afraid of a: prcjudici d against the word "bitit.. .” Since his cure lie says none need fear but trust in IIop Bitters. My wife and daughter were mado healthy by tho use of Hop Bitters, and I recommend them to my people.— Methodist Clergyman, Mexico, N. Y.

A Washington Tost reporter asked Joseph H. lllackfan, the superintendent of the foreign mails at the postofiice de partment, how the amount of business done by the United States postal depart ment corresponded with that done by other countries. I have had but little time to make a comparison,” said he, “ but from a gen eral knowledge of the reports of Euro pean countries, I think tho comparison favorable to this country.” “ Upon what basis should a compari son be madeP" “Upon the basis of population. Our report is based upon a population of 47,000,000. There passed through the mails, according to our report, 2,215,- 108,124 seperate packages of mail mat ter, which would mnke an average of forty-seven pieces to each inhabitant.” In tho matter of letters—how does our showing compare with other coun tries last year?” “Very favorablo indeed. The United States originated 866,593,572 letters, while Geimany, with a population of only 4,000,000 less, orginated but 504,- 067,781; Austria, with half our popula tion, but 170,003,500, and Russia, with a population of 93,000,000, 94,206,058. ranee, with a population of 37,000,000, originated 424,772,000, while Jupan, with population of 34,000,000, had but 27,009,791, less than ono letter to a per son.” Mr. Blackfan proceeded: “ Italy, pop ulation 28,000,000, 140,868,384 letters; Hungary, population 16,000,000, 64,454,- 060 letters; Belgium, population, 6,000,- 000, 64,201,254 letters; Spain, witli a population of 17,000,000, makes a good showing in having originated 78,841,275 lotters.” "In tho matter of postal cards, how does the comparison hold?” “ Largely in our favor. The United States originated 276,440,710. Germany lend all Europe with but 104 224,002. Austria originated 29,307,500, closely followed by Franco with 29,567,000, whilo Italy used hut 17,243,800, Hungary 10,264,250, and Spain but 007,087. Even Japan originated 11,002,700, whilo Rus sia, with her immense possessions, only used 2,621,530." “ Have any of tho European countries what are termed return cards?" “Yes; a number have. I recall Ger many, Belgium, Italy, Netherlands, Swedon, and perhaps some others.” “ What of newspapers?" “Wo lead all other countries by a largo majority. In fact our figures o f 748,018,0(0 newspapers and magazines stamp us as the leading reading people of the globe. Germany had demand for but 401,729,830; France, 210,575,000; Austria, 66,747,600; Italy, 77,201,670; Hungary, 20,625,233; Spain, 37,253,784; Russia, 77,439,059, and Japan, 34,- 500,000.” “ Do other countries make uso of tlte mails as a sort of package express?" “Oh, yes; but in this branch of tho mail service, ps in most others, we lead. The figures are: United States, 22,034,- 456; France, 12,521,000; Italy, 7,602,150; Germany, 6,776,330; Austria, 3,007,700; Hungary, 1,429.368, and Japan, 134,293. ’ “How about books, circulars and miscellaneous mnttorP” “Franco is the only country that ap proximates to us. She sent through the mails 237,391,000, while wo sent 300,- 845,480. The oilier European countries arc below the hundred millions." ONE HUNDRED-DOLLAR BEES. (•ntherlnir Oiieenn In Cyprus anil In the Holy Lianil—Some Interest lull Infor mation About Decs. D. A. Jones, a member of the Cana dian parliament, recently returned to his liomi at Beoton, Ontario, from the island of Cyprus and the Holy Land. His visit t.iere was for the sole purpose of securing queen bees from those coun tries. His apiary in Beeton is very largo, and lie liaB others in the United States. He also established an apiary in Larnica,Cyrus,which is now in charge of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Benton. Writing from Palestine to a friend in New York, Mr. Jones said of his journey: “I have been delighted with my trip through these parts on account of finding a very superior race oi bees—a race that I feel santuine, when tested, will prove a boon to America; and as I am the first to import them, I hope to get enough to America to et li s race established there in purity. There appears to be but one race of bees in the Holy Land, but they vary in oolor and in some other respects, and on this account I have procured some from almost every part. Those I obtained in the valley of Sharon, Jerusalem, and all about the hills of Judea, also east of Jordan and the Red sea, were sent on mules, camels and asses to Jaffa, thence by steamer to tho apiary at Larnica. Tlioso I got on Mount Lebanon, in Herman, Da mascus, nnd in fact in all the northern part of Syria, were taken to tho coast and shipped at Bcyrout for Larnica. Just now I am getting a supply from northeast of Damascus, nenr Palmyra, nnd they seem very fine. I have also received a num ber of bees for Professor Cook, of Lans ing, Mich., lor examination under the microscope. In some localities they re fuse to soli mo bees. I have with me a stock of small vials filled with alcohol, into encli of which I place a few bees. These excite tho curiosity of tho natives, and they wateh my .every movement. The dangers of traveling are very great, as I am forced to go to distant points, quite out of the ordinary routes, to carry out my object. If my losses nre not too heavy, I will surprise ths bcc- keopers of America with this new race of bees. I find it less difficult to secure bees here than it would bo in ordinary seasons, as the crops wero a failure in Palestine and Syria last year, and star vation makes somo more willing to sell their bees than they otherwise would bo. If I ever get out safo from those tribes I will liavo no desiro to return, even should I find a superior race in some other locality. I will hire tho natives instead to come to mo, and let them run the risk of having fine bo for mo to select from, and pay them such sums as will induco them to per form that work. In fact, it will be quite impossible to evor do more than to get a few stocks to breed from, as tho cost is so groat. In some instances eacli bee could not be got nnd laid down safely in American for less than $100 All I have will surely average that sum.” Bonnets nnd Jewelry ns Necessaries ol Lire. This is difficult to answer, because the amount allotted varies with the styles of living, the husband’s means and other circumstances. A Maine lady recently took her little child and wont to Europe on an extended pleasure trip, and the husband's lawyer objected that ploasurc travel abroad could not be deemed neces sary. The judge refused to decide this, nnd said it was for tho jury to deter mine whether,taking into view the moans of tho husband and tho health of the wife and child, they would allow the expenses of such a journey. Not many yearsagoa wife bought a gold watch and other jewelry to tho amount of $175 Tho husband argued that these things were ornaments, not necessaries; but the jewelers proved that the husband keptajfast horse and wore diamonds, and tho court decided that if a man marries lie engages to support a wife ac cording to liis Eoeial conditions and wealth; and if they enable him to keep a horse and wenr diamonds they may well make it necessary that she should have some moderate ornaments. A Georgia milliner sued the husbnnd of a lady for a bonnet which she had refused to tako because it was a “ botch.” The husband proved that she was well sup plied with bonnets, and that she had in tended to give this one to a iriend. The court said he was justified in refusing to pay for it. A hat might be neces sary to a lacly herself, but making pres ents to one’s friends was not necessary. But how about Christmas, New Year, and birthday presents? If a lady in society orders these little things, can her husband refuse to pay for them? HANCOCK. {*•»*, o .huleu.

The home-made man knows no tiling of club life, but little of style and still less of affectation. His hours away from business he enjoys in the company of his family. He reads tbe news of the day to them, and they read the litera ture ©f the day to him. His clothes do not fit supremely well, but there are no needless ventilators in his stocking heel, and no buttons missing on liis shirt collar (make a note of this). He doesn’t “mingle” promiscuously with the^musses, andjinduJges injfew luxuries. He cares for a garden patch or he pushes the sweat from his brow with a lawn mower. He is not above a game of croquet with liis children—he had just as lief quarrel with them as with any body. But after all, he has engrafted upon him the fruit of common sense. He is ah excellent citizen, voting with intelligence; gentle and kindly as a neighbor, loving and trusting as a friend. If there were more of him it would be better for the world.—New Haven Register. Mr. Jones brought witli him 200 hives. He placed them on exhibition in London before liis departure for this country. They wore viewed there hy the Baroness Burdctt-Coutts, Sir John Lubbock, Mr Terry, of tho British museum, nnd John Hunter, of the Times. Upon arriving in New York Mr. Jones said: “ Notwithstanding 1 have gone to the antipodes tor my pets, I cannot safely pass any opinion upon them yet. I am tho first man in this country who lias collected Cyprian and Holy Land bees in their native abode, ar.d comparatively little is known of them. The qu jobs are strong, hearty bees, able to go long dis tances, and maintain their own against a superior force. All that I may say turther would be only conjecture. It will tako time to test the superiority of their breed as honey producers over that of tho Italian or Ligurian queens." Mr. A. K. Blood, of Massachusetts was the first beekeeper that introduced Cyprian queens into the hives of tills country. His were received three years ago from somo friends traveling in the Holy Land. There were few in number Beekeepers who inspected them believed that they promised much. Next year a Fort Plain beekeeper introduced Llio Cypiians into liis apiary, and they pro dueed such results as to cause a sensa lion among beekeepers and to lead to the trip of Mr. Jones. The Cyprian queen is lively and of a very light yel low color under its body. This often approaches a straw color. She ferocious when attacked and resists vehemently. Her workers are much more hardy tnan either tho Italian or the black bees. It is said that in Cy prus she will live for six years. The Italian queen’s existence is confined to three or four years. Her other points are yet to be tested. Her drones also arc superior to the ordinary Italian drones. Besides the Italian queen, the little black, large brown and gray queen bees are natives of this country, and have thrived over since they were brought out by the pilgrim fathers. A good queen will lay 3,000 eggs in a day. Queens ar hatched in fourteen days, workers in nbout twenty-one days, and drones in about twenty-four days. Among the successful beekeepers of this country are General Fitz John Porter, who has his apiary in Morristown, Colonel Landreth and S. L. M. Barlow, Esq., of Glen Cove. There are apiaries on the tops of large buildings in this city, and in the yards of many suburban residences Bees find many feeding grounds in this vicinity. There are so many rare trees plants and ilowers cultivated here that the honey gathered is rich in color and sweetness. Bees fly high in the city. It is neces sary for them to pass over the tops of tall houses to escape injury from the thousands passing along th streets. Yet they often drop to the sidewalk and add to their store from syrup, molasses, sugar and other sweet substances. The yield of honey this year will not be so large as it has been in former ones. In California, which is a large honey-prcducing country, the crop this year will not be one-half as large as tlio crop of 1878. The yield from counties in this Slate will be much smaller than during forme r years. The bumblebee stores her honey in the ground, and beekeepers get at it only with difficulty. When it is collected it brings fancy prices. The Baroness Burdett-Coutts, who is president of the British beekeepers’ as sociation, has written to a merchant in NewYork for information as to the man ner of hiving bees and storing honey in this country. The Prince of Wales has an apiary.—New York Sun. Extraordinary Marksmanship. A Doctor Ruth and liis wife recently gave a wonderful exhibition of shoot ing with the rifle and pistol at the Brooklyn driving pnrk. Dr. lluth is a Western man, wears liis hair long under a broad-brimmed white hat, and has a volvet shooting-jacket alter the style of Western riflemen. He is tall and free in his motions, tossing his repeating-riile about as thougli it were a mere wand. Mrs. Ruth is a lady witli a very much tanned complexion and the carriago of a backwoods woman. Mrs. Ruth began the banging and the hitting by aiming witli a pistol at glass balls, and they were shattered in almost every case. With the pistol held side ways there was a miss or two more, but generally every shot told. When tho pistol was inverted and the aim taken belov/ instead of above tlio lino of fire there was no apparent loss in the per centage of hits. When tho ball was hung hy a string and set swinging Mrs. Ruth stood eighteen yards off and made a clean break on her first shot. The rifle was then handled through tho same scries of shots, and tho usual amount of grace with which all women handle guns was apparent. When the balls were thrown up in the air Mrs. Ruth stood n good distance off and shattered dozen out of the fiiteen, and this feature when encored was equally ns good. Whilo the lady shooter etiatted with the lady spectators Dr. Ruth began to show his ability as a snap shot. The sights of the rifle seemed to bo of no special assistance to him, for when they were covered by a cord| lie used the weapon on balls placed on a stand and again at the glass spheres thrown into tho air wilh wond<r(ul effect. Some balls were thrown on the ground a dozen yards oil', and the doctor, niming at the ground below a ball, would send it spinning up into the air and then rapidly unloading and loading his piece would hit the ball on its descent. This double shooting drew out plenty of ap plause. Again, when tho balls wer thrown up the rifle was given a turn about after the manner o f a flail-handle, and it fell into position soon enough to enable a breaking shot to bo made on the ball. Balls thrown from side to side wero hit, whether coming from the right or left. When tired of breaking glassware Dr. Ruth picked up a frag ment of glass and stepping off a dozen paces held it off in liis lingers, whilo Mrs. Ruth, picking up a small-bore rifle, took careful aim and the glass was shattered into powder. With an or dinary visiting card held in his mouth, and turned so as to show a side, Dr Ruth permitted liis wife to put several bullets through it, the pair joking mean while with each other, the shooter tell ing the target to draw back liis nose a little as it was too shining a mark and distracted her sight. A loaded cartridge was laid on a bit of plank some yards off, and Mrs. ltutli fired a bullet at it and exploded it. Dozens oi other and similar ways of testing the quickness ol sight and steadiness of nerve of the shooters were improvised, nnd generally it was found that everything fired at was hit almost overy time. Why Wc Eat Oysters Raw. Doctor William Roberts, in liis inter esting lectures on the digestive ferments, writes: Our practice in regard to the oyster is quite exceptional, and fur nishes a striking example of the general correctness of tlio popular judgment on dietetic questions. The oy3tcr is almost the only animal substance which we cat habitually, and by preference, in the raw or uneooked stalo; and it is inter esting to know that there is a sound physiological reason at the bottom of this preference. The fawn-colored mass which constitutes the dainty of the oyster is its liver, and this is little less than a heap of glycogen. Associated with tho glycogen, but withheld from actual contact with it during life, is its appropriate digestive ferment—the hepatic disease. The more crushing of the dainty between the teeth brings these two bodies together, and the glycogen is at once digested without other help by its own diastase. The oyster in the uncooked state, or merely warmed, is, in fact, seif-digestive. But tlio advantage of tuis provision is wholly lost by cooking; for the heat em ployed immediately destroys the associ ated ferment, and a cooked oyster lias to be digosted, like any other food, by the eater’s own digestive powors.— London Medical Record. Exaggeration. ! Some habits are so unconsciously practiced thut a movement to mend them is the only way to detect them. Tho beam in one’s own eye is less no tieed than tbe mole in another person’ eye. A family while at the breakfast table one morning pledged to observe the strictest veracity for that day. A mem ber oi the lamily telh the “conse quences.” As a first fruit of the resolve, we asked the one who suggested it: What made you so late at breakfast this morning?” “Site hesitated, began with, “ Bsc uso couldn’t—” and then, true to her com pact, said: “The truth is, 1 was lazy and didn’t hurry, or I might have been down long ago." Presently one of thorn remarked that she had been very cold, adding: “I never was so cold in my life.” An inquiring loos caused the last speaker to modify this statement in stantly with: “ Oh, I don’t think it was so cold, after all.” A third remark to the effect that Miss So-and-So was the homeliest girl in the city,” was recalled as soon as made, the speaker being compelled to own that Miss So-and-So was only rather plain, instead of being exces sively homely. So it went on throughout tho day, causing much merriment, which was good-naturedly accepted by the sub jects, and giving rise to constant cor rcctions in the interest of trutfl. One thing beenme more and more sur. prising, however, to each one of us, and that was tho amount of cutting down which our most careless statements de manded under this new law. An “anxious mother” writes to a medical journal to know why a baby sucks its thumb, and the .nodical j nv’na uses up a halt column ol valu io.e space to explain. It might liavo covered the whole ground in a few words by the fol lowing simple sentence: Because it hasn't anything better to suck.—Middle- town Transcript. INVESTMENT BONDS.

BI.V. 1 NYU D-No an WARD'S Fine Shirts for'tQ Hiding Money. The fact that Spain, though chrono logically in the nineteenth century, is really living in the seventeenth, is illus trated by the following from Temple Bar. In old Spanisli houses there is generally a very cleverly-contrived secret receptacle for money, akin to the “ secret drawer” of the English desk. Even now this secret cupboard is much used, the Spanish idea of security being (an idea founded on bitter experience of many years) to cage the windows in iron bars, lock up the house at night ir winter, look at the money, and then say in security and self-congratulation: “ Why, I am very safe; all I Jove end all I need is contained within the four walls of my casa.” There is a vast deal ol distrust of banks and government securities, and a great holding to the proverb: “No friend save God, and a dollar in your pocket.” And now with the middle class there is no banking of money. The bankers, to begin with, give no interest as a rule; and so, just as in Scotland in the troubled year of 1650 the goldsmiths were the only bankers, so now, in Spain, the gentry constantly hoard their money in their own houses; somo put their jewelry and plate in the “montea do piedad.” THE MARKETS.
