At a meeting of the Royal Botanic Society it was stated that several of the streets of Basingstoke had had to be repaved, owing fc« the flagstones having been forced out of j^osi tioo by an undergrowth of fungi. The Queen's Jubilee present from the Bri tish residents in the Tranavaal is in the form j «f a go'S shield, weighing 131b. The address, which runs to 260 words, it eugravod there on. It S3 adorned with 132 diamonds. Something like a record. Mr W. H Groom, one of the representatives in the Queensland Assembly for Dray ton electoral c c mp!et@ 1 hie thirty-fift! ye ir of political life on the 11th August, L ,e was elected in 1352, and has represented the one con etituenoy continuously ever since. At Kansas City (Missouri) the police have begQn to force the women prisoners in the | g a ol to break stones for street repairs, and to wear coarse overalls while at the work. I'bia step was taken on the ground that the women are not p nished enough by detention in gaol if they aie allowed to be idle. & Devonshire lady of independent mean has jait died after apanding nearly a.life time in bed, Thirty-nine years ago ahe c*me to the conclusion that bed was the most comfortable place in the world, and decided upon remaining there for the rest of her life. ¥Rom that day, although enjoyins? excellent healthy «he never got up again. An appalling invention has been " made in Germany," having for its object the preveu tion of permature burial. The machine is well calculated to add a new terror to the eraveyard. It works on the slightest move ment in the buried coffin, bo that a passing vanor atil! snore a moving train may by the oscillation it sets up cause the dread thing to work. And what happens is this. An iron box springs open ; a black flag flies wildly upright, a bell olangs, and the glare of an electric lamp lightens the countrywide. 3?his machine would be more terrifying than « gnogfc, if it worked !

Spell These and Spell Anything.

Some of our friendo pride themselves on their spelling, bub we doubt whether any of them oonld comfortably give correct spellings of all the words in the following chyme: - Btand up, ye spellers, now and spell. Spell phenakistoscope and knell ; I |Or t*ke some simple word, as ohilly, Or gauger, or the garden lily ; To spell such worda as syllogism, And lachrymose and synchronism, And Pentateuch and saccharine, Apocrypha and celadine, Lactiferous, perspicacity, Jejune and homoeopathy, Paralysis and chloroform, Rhinoceros and pachyderm, Metempsychosis, gherkins, basque, la certainly no easy task. Kaleidoscope and Tennessee, Kamsohatka and dispensary, Diphthong and erysipelas, And etiquette and sassafras, Infallible and ptyalism, Allopathy and rheumatism, And cataclysm and beleaguer, Twelfth, eighteenth, rendezvous, intriguer, And hosts of other words all found On English and on classic ground, Thus Behring Straits and Michaelmas, Thermopylce, Cordilleras, Suite, hemorrhage, jalap, and Havana, . Cinquefoil and ipecacuanha, And Rappahannock, Shenandoah, And Schuylkiil, and a thousand more, Are words some prime good Bpelkra mien In dictionary lands like this. Nor need one think himself an acs If some of these he has to pass ; Nor deem himself undone for ever To miss the name of either river, The Dnieper, Seine, or Guadalquivir.

SAJVI>ESi« «Sc »«ms Euca lypti Extrnxst. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in the market now, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oiis may not be takes, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTEACL 1, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as their information forwarded to ua through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we fcate :— It proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Pehulz, Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr. Hosier, Director of the Medical Clinic at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygea and freed of acids, reamoua and other substancos, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the i sanative qualities proper to the plant according to these authorities, and according to Professor Dr. LUter, of England, and to j Drs. Bauer, Mclntire, Wood, Hazard, etc,, j of America, is the only extract correspond ing to scientific tests, and the only one which possesses the proper therapeutic value. SANDER & SON'S EUCALYPTI . EXTRACT. All other crude oils are to be claeaed among the turpentines, which have, when used as medicine, no therapeutic effect, and are abandoned as an internal medicament. These so-called Eucalypti Extract which may have received distinction at Exhibitions as commercial articles are used for mechanical purposes are only discernible. By their deficiency in pundgent odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extracts develops moat freely through its surplus of oxygen. By their alcoholic thiu and mobile appear ance being reduced in specific density through the presence of acids. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resinrand tennates. If these crude oils, so called eucalypt xtracts, are applied by mistake in cases of roup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal nflamations, dysentery, wounds, the consequences are appalling. For safety Hlways ask for SANDER & SON'S EUCA LYPTI EXTRACT, and get the old, well tested, and reliable preparation.—Sandhurst, Victoria, Australia. SANDER & SONS.
