f ' A good illustration of the expansion
of tho ; world's trade during the last
thirty years is afforded by the produc
tion of petroleum in the United States.
In 1659, 94,000 gallons were produced
in the Pennsylvania and New Tork oil
fields, and in 1890, 689,029,956 gallons
were exported from the various States
which now produce the oil.
f If the Swiss keep on making railroads
everywhere, exclaim the New Tork
Independent, the diligence will soon be a
thing of the past. Their latest achieve
ment la the construction of a railway
from Vie ga to Zsrmatt, through Stalden
and SL Nicholas. : The next step will be
to make one up the Kiffelberg, and then
there will be no excuse for any trav

( A new kind of stamps will soon be
introduced in the postal telegraph ser

tbe Inviolability 01 the privacy ot letters.
jThe new stamp is printed on very thiq
paper, end cannot be used again if it is
once pat upon a letter. When used
jwet and taken off the envelope it leaves
an indelible impression upon the spot
where it was attached, so that if a new

1 1 So great is the demand for silver
'dimes, that they aro turned out now at
the rate of 100,000 a day. No le is than
l$3,176,477 in silver dimes have been
truck off in the past three years. For
this purpose, states the Detroit Fm
Prest, all the uncurrent silver coin i
being reworked, notably the silver half
dollar, which is a clumsy pocket-piece
and very unpopular. The novelty bank?
(which the dime savings institutions are
ending oat is supposed to be answerable
jfor the sudden demand. The three
: mints of Philadelphia, New Orleans and
Batt Francisco are kept busy supplying
the wants of the people in this line.
There is no doubt," states the Detroit
Prtt Pros, that the world's fair will ba
somewhat influenced by European poli
ces. With Germany and England in
close friendship and Russia allied with
France to offset the power of the drei
''bund, there is very sensitive and jealous
ifeeling in all quarters, and our cosnmis
isioners will need to use in&uite tact in
order to brin? all these countries to thi

POISON IVY.
FACTS OF INTEREST ABOUT
WOODLAND JaVUa.
Its VlnlAnt tCflfecra and the
, . .Remedies lor The How
to Tell 1 It From Vir . '
ginla Creeper.; .
' If yon have never fallen a victim to
that siren of the woods and fields, the
poison ivy, read this and take warning:
She is a hearties creature, this woodland
temptress, and by her beauty will lure
you to your misery. : She attracts with
offerings of drooping leafy sprays of ap
parcntly innocent grace; with pretty pale
flowers, suggestive of fragrance; and in
the fall, with foliage of brilliant color.
But there is fever in her green leaves.
Her touch is poison and her breath is
blighting. ;
If it has been "your misfortune to pick
the poison ivy or even to run against it,
you doubtless recall bow your hand,
where you touched the plant grew red
and swollen ; how it itched till you rubbed
off the skin by vain scratching; how it
burned until the fever spread all over
your body; how little red spots came
out on your skin ; how ycur mouth and
throat grew hot and parched, and how
your whole body became swollen and
stiff, while rheumatic pain danced
through you.
Like mosquitoes, the poison ivy is
found pretty nearly everywhere. Tou
brush it as you steal along the Canadian
stream, tempting the trout to rise. Tou
touch it when you sit in the shade of the
hedge back of the hotel in the mount
sins. Tou find it growing in the fields
and woods from ocean to ocean, sad you
suffer from its sting during your winter
among the orange groves of the Suth.
Eternal vigilanc3 is tbe only price of
exemption from its touch.
The most exasperating thing about
poison ivy is its resemblance to the harm
less and beautiful woodbine or Virginia
creeper. Nearly everybody is on the
lookout for poison ivy, and it is prob
able that, but for this unfortunate re
semblance, the summer girl would not
reap half her usual harvest of itching
fingers and swelled face. But the sum
mer girl loves Virginia creeper quite as
much as she bates the poison ivy, so, as
long as she is unable to distinguish be
tween them, she must be resigned to
suffer now and then.
It is no easy matter for the unin
structed city girl to distinguish between
these two graceful vines. Their leaves
are very similar. They both seekstumpi
and feace.3 and low bushes for their em
braces, and haunt clearings in the
wood3. They both bear tiny (lowers and
berries. There are, however, several
marked differences by which the poison
ivy may be readily and unerringly dis
tinguished. The poison ivy has three
leaves in each cluster, while the Virginia
creeper has five. If there were no other
difference this would bo sufficient. If
the vine's leaves are clustered in fives
you may handle it with impunity. If
only three leaves spring together from
each stem, do not even upproach it, for
sometimes it will poison by its breath.
Do not touch the tree trunk around
which the vines climb, for that may
poison you, and if another of your party
has touched the ivy, do not touch his
hand. A single ivy-poisoned boy has
been known to spread the irritation over
an entire school.
The individual leaves of the poison ivy
closely resemble those of the Virginia
creeper. Generally they are serrated or
notched around the edges, but sometimes
the edges are B.nooth. The stems of the
poison ivy vine have many tendrils,
which tightly grip the object round
which it trails. This is also crue of the
Virginia creeper, but on this vine the
tendrils expand into tiny sucker-like
disks. The berries also afford an easy
way of distinction. In shapo and gen
eral appearance they are somewhat alike.
Those from the poison ivy come from
small, pale greenish flowers, and when
ripe are smooth and pale brown or green
ish in color. The Virginia creeper bears
dark blue berries hung from stems of
rick red.
Poison ivy is a variety of sumach. It
is very different from the stiff and sticky
sumach, which brightens country road
sides in the fall with its vivid torches.
It is slender and graceful, and sometimes
climbs nearly to the top of tall trees. It
has any number of other names. Many
call it poison oak, and in some parts of
the country it is known as the mercury
vine.
Poison ivy has a cousin, which coun
try folks often call poison dogwood or
poison elder. It is more correctly known
as the poison sumach, although that
name might also apply to the peison ivy.
The rule of threes and fives holds good
here, too. The poison sumach, like the
poison ivy, has three leaves in a cluster,
while the harmless sumach, like the Vir
ginia creeper, clusters its leaves in
fives.
One of the curious things about poison
ivy is the different ways in which it ef
fects different people. Some can handle
it with impunity. Others have only to
go within a foot of it to become painfully
affected. It is much more poisonous
toward evening, and at night than dur
iag the day. So rank do many people
consider it that it is believed in
some parts of the country that it
kills the trees round which it
wraps its arms. There is no ground for
this belief, which probably arose from
the fact that it seems to seek dead trees
and stumps to clamber over. Some per
sons are poisoned so badly by the ivy
that the skin becomes covered with a
crust, and if the face is stung the fea
tures are almost obliterated by swelling.
The poison itself never causes death,
although Dr. Hubbard, 6f Bellovue Hos
pital, saw a case six years ago in which
the patient, a healthy boy of fifteen
years, was to - weakened by the poison
that he . died of exhaustion. This boy
became covered with blisters and was
unconscious for two weeks.; It is rare,
however, for people to become very ill
from the poison, though many, especially
women, suffer for several weeks. ' -1.
, As to remedies, you may take your
choice of very many. If you are seriously
poisoned it would be better to call a phy
sician. If your affection amounts only
to itching and irritation, with a little
rash and slight fever, you can treat your
self .' Dr. 8. A, Brown, a naval officer,
recemmends ten or twenty grains of bro
mine dissolved in a quart of olive oil.
This is to be applied to the poisoned
surface four times a dsy, and twice a day
- 1 v tmist be wfl"!'"'"! w.h
sod dissolved in water and applied every
two hours.
If you art poisoned while camping in
the woods you need not lack remedies.
The Indians gather ' boneset and crush,
the tops and leaves to a pulp. This
often drive away the poison very quickly
when rubbed on the flesh. Common
oak tree bark boiled in water until it gets
th consistency of tar : is also a good ap
plication. These simple remedies are
recommended by good physicians. 2Ui

The Postofllce in China. "
For many centuries public despatches
have been conveyed through China by
mean of a Department of the Board of
War. Post roads, originallv excellent
but now disgraceful, radiate from Pekin
to all parts of the empire, and, at dis
tances regulated by the 'nature of the
country are stations where a supply of
horses is supposed to be kept---nucb as
in Siberia for the furthering of official
correspondence". ' Despite the btdness of
the roads and the generally dilapidated
condition of the ponies (they are 'hardly
big enough to be called horses); surprise
ing distance are. On urgent occasions,
covered by this means. in theory the
greatest speed is some two hundred miles
a day, and it is claimed that this is often
actually attained. ' But in this, tor China,
rapid means of communication the gen
eral public is not permitted to share, any
more thin it may in England avail itself
of tbe services of a Queen's messenger.
It is not to be imagined that a veritable
nation of shopkeepers like tho Chinese
would remain, owing this refusal of their
Government to convey their correspond
ence, destitute of a postal service. Taey
have indeed a very complete system of
their own, entirely independent of the
State. In every town of any size may be
seen ten or a dozen shops with the sign
Main (Jliu, "letter-omce, or postal estab
lishment, suspended outside. Their
business is to carry, not letters only, but
small parcels, packets of silver, and the
like, usually to other towns in the same
province, but also on occasion 0 other
provinces. They are in fact general car
riers, or perhaps it would be fairer to say,
they occupy much the same position in
China now as did the "agents" at Har
wich and Dover of the Postmaster-
General at the beginning of the eight
eenth century so miscellaneous are the
packages committed to their charge.
1 hey have no fixed tariff varying accord
ing to weight, and there appears . to be
no limit, within r3ason to the size of
letters or parcels they will carry. The
charge for letters is fairly constant, but
in estimating the cost of conveyance of
parcels the size and shape alone seem
to be takea into account. A rough cal
culation is taea made, which the sender
is at liberty if he can to abate. In
fact, the transmission of parcels is re
garded as being quite as much a matter
of bargaining as toe purchase of a pig. '
As there is no monopoly, each postotfice
tries to underbid its rivals, and competi
tion sometime! verges on the ludicrous.

Private Secretary Tate had a visitor
the other day who has had a wonderful
experience. It was Commodore Gilke-
sod, ute of the United States Navy, but
nonr on tho retired list. About twenty
years ago, he says, he was an officor on
the United States vessel Wateree. One
clear and calm afternoon, when about
thirty miles off the coast of Peru, aa
enormous wave was seen bearing down
upon the ship. The Wateree was brought
about to meet the wave, rode upon its
crest, an 1 thirty minutes later was left
higa and dry upon a mountain three
miles back from tbe Peruvian coast and
1700 feet above the levet of the sea,
having traveled at a rate of over sixty
miles an hour.,, Tho loss of life by this
tidal wave was frightful, o le city alone
of 30,000 inhabitants having been over
whelmed. All tbe vessels in the neigh
borhood of the Peruvian coast foundered
with the exception of the Wateree, and
while the crew was safe, tho ship was a
loss, an 1 it had to be abandoned, there
being n: way f getting it down from
the mountain. Several countries ap
pointed commissions to investigate the
catastrophe, but while they advanced
many theories they never satisfactorily
explained the cause. BarritburgPean.)

One Horse's Grief For Another.
There is a pathetic story about High
Tariff, the colt that fell dead in the race
for the American Derby at Chicago, and
Poet Scout. The latter was to make the
running for Hih Tariff, which he did,
but High Tariff fell dead at the end of a
mile, and Strathmeath won the race. Mr.
Easton said that High Tariff was tho
best celt he ever owned. ' He thought
that he could have won the race sure.
Poet Scout and High Tariff were nearly
full brothers in blood, and were never
separated from the time they were weaned.
Taey ran in the same lot, and were kept
in adjoining stalls, with a board removed
so that they could see each other. In
the evening after tbe race Poet Scout
looked for his dead companion. He
would not eat, but would walk -around
his stall and look out st the door. - He
whinnied all night, and for days would
look in vain for bis mate. When hi
feed was put in bis bus he would take a
mouthful of oats and run to the door and
whinny, but High. Tariff never came.
Poet Scout isacaanged horse,: and all
connected with tbe stable say that he
grieved as much as any human being
grieved at too deata of a brothel. !feo
