About one hundred and fifty colours are now obtained from coal tar, and these have almost entirely supplanted vegetable and animal dyes. In fact only two of the vegetable class, indigo and logwood, are still of any considerable importance. Coal yields a large amount of colouring matter, tne magenta obtained from a ton being sufficient to dye 600 yards of flannel; the aurine, 120 yards; the Vermillion scarlet, 2560 yards, and the aligarine 255 yards. AUTHENTIC MEDICAL OPINIONS WORTH KNOWING.—Dr Osborne says—“l use SANDER AND SONS EUCALYPTI EXTRACT as spray for nasal catarrh, low fever, asthma, etc., with great success. I find this preparation superior to all others.” Dr Stahl: —“I have used various preparations of Eucalyptus, but I get better results from SANDER AND SONS EUCALYPTI EXTRACT than from any other.” Dr Preston;—“l never use any Eucalyptus preparation other than SANDER AND SONS,’ as I found others to be almost useless.” Dr Hart: —“ It goes without saving that SANDER AND SONS EUCALYPTI EXTRACT is the best in the mar ket.” 'ln influenza, all fevers, throat and lung trouble, diphtheria, diarrhoea, dysentery, kidney complaints, rheumatism, wounds, sprains, ulcers, etc., it is invaluable. See that you get SANDER AND SONS’, and reject spurious preparations, which are sometimes supplied by unscrupulous dealers.—f Advt.) Mr Chamberlain, the Colonial Secretary, is so closely identified with Birmingham that many will be surprised to hear -that he is by birth a Londoner, that he was educated at University College School, and that his father was a member of one of the City Companies. It was in Birmingham, however, in his eighteenth year, that he joined the firm of screw-makers known ■is Nettlefolds, which was so prosperous that in 1874 he was enabled to retire. He first tried to enter Parliamentary life as member for Sheffield, but was defeated by Mr Roebuck. In 1876, he was returned by Birmingham, and has sat for that town ever

“ Cromwell Argus,” October 20th, 1891, gays: —“Messrs Gawne and Co. have favoured us with samples of their Worcestershire Sauce. As to the sauce, one of many Worcesters in the field, we may say that its flavour is'as good as its piquancy is pronounced. Altogether a well-balanced relish, which is supplied to the public at a price that no Worcester of equal merit has hitherto been sold.— Advt. It is announced by a telegram from the Rome correspondent of the “ Daily Midi ’’ that a monument to a St. Bernard dog named Barry has just been erected on the mountain of that name. Barry had a glorious record. In ten years he saved the lives of forty persons who had lost their way on the glaciers of Mount St. Bernard. He found a child ten years old lying in the snow under the influence of the fatal slumber which precedes death. Barry,.seemed to grasp the situation. At any rate, the dog first warmed the child with its breath, and then roused it from sleep by licking it. This much accomplished, Barry, by lying down on its side, gave the child an,devious invitation to get on and ride. The child did so, and was carried by Barry to the convent. His death was due to the timidity of some unknown man who fancied that Barry’s open mouth looked threatening. So he hit the dog on the head and killed it. These two events are commemorated on the monument, which represents the St. Bernard carrying a child on its back, while underneath is written : “ Barry, the heroic, saved the lives of 40 persons, and was killed by the forty-first.”
