A large wide mouthed stoppered bottle Li kept charged with an ounce of chlorofcrm. When a chicken La? received scotfaieb of death, it is held firmly under I.e 1-ft arm and its head slipped into the mouth of the bottle. A few deep inspirations follow, and the bird without a st rugjtlo becomes unconscious. TLen, holding it by the legs, its neck i3 dislocated Ly a quick stretch. The plan is so simple that it might be generally adopted. Scientific American. 'o Two Vero Alike, It mast bo pretty Lard for a wpman to lead "in fashion."

Frank Leslie. ItuH.sia'f, New ituilviay Ilonto. The Siberian Pacific railroad has not yet been commenced, and already a new Siberian railway is projected. It will bo called lifter the river Obi. Its connection v. it h the bed of that stream end v. itli a suitable port to tho west of Walgatz Island will open a double new road to Si beria by land and by water. It is pro.' ptsed to "circumvent" tho month of the river Obi, the peninsula of Yahnal, and the Kara soa, which aro di'Iicultof access, owing to the masses of drilling ice. The new route will only bo 4U'J versls long, taking u northwesterly direction from the mouth of tho ricr Obi to tho AValgatz spa, in a bay of which a harbor is to Le built. The sito chosen for this harbor is sheltered from tho wind by the I'ae-t'hoi mountains. The country being level and well stud ded with forests, tho construction of tho line will ofTcr littlo diiliculty. Tho entire cost, including the harbor, is estimated at 0,000.(jOOuLles. Under existing con ditions the transport of merchandise to Barnaul, via Tinmen, Perm and St. Pe tersburg to London takes three months, whereas by the. new lino two months will be saved.

In actual war Le would r.ci Le able to aceompliidi tho facings iti a plowed field any better than tho voluntecroi' a few weeks, and the accuracy of Lis fire would bo materially affected by tho unfamiliar ground and the knowledge that thero was an enemy who might tiro first. Modern warfare 'is influenced in a greatly dimin ished degree by what remains to us of t he tactics of Frederick the Great and his time. All that is ever used of tho endless drilling, when in actual campaign, is tho passing from column into line and frotrj line into column by the simplest methods, and no other movements. 110 matter how favorable the ground or how perfect the drill.

"It would be diQc-ult to convince a person that there was a single walk of business life which was net overcrowded." said the bookkeeper of a down town Lank. 'But in our basin-. there ere always places open for alert young men as mes sengers. The reason why the demand is always greater than the supply is i.t ac count of tho large security required by tho bank.
