CITRIC ACID.
Th« Way tha Secret of Ita Manufac
ture Was Stolan.
The proprietor of an old chemist's
shop, close hy Temple Bar, in days
If me by enjoyed the monopoly of mak
lag citric acid. More fnvoruhly cir
rumstanced than other secret niautifuc
furors, liis was a process that rcijuirod
no assistance, lie employed no work
men. 1-1 xports came to sample and as
sort uni bottle his products, hut they
never entered the laboratory. The
mystic operations by which In* grew
rich were con tine. I to hiiuself One
day. having lo-ked the doors uud
drawn the window Minds us usual,
sure of the safety of his secret, the
chemist went home to his dinner. A
chimney sweep, or a boy disguised as
Midi, wide uwake in chemistry, was on
the watch and followed tin* secret
keeper to ('h iring Crass, and. sure that
lie would uot return that day, the sooty
philosopher hied rapidly hack to Toni
pic Bar, ascended the low building, I
dropped down the Hue. saw all lie
wanted to and returned, carrying with
lr:n the mystery of making citric ueld.
l!i»* moil tpoly of the Inventor was
gone a few mouths after, and the price
was reduced by four Hftlis. The poor
man was heartbroken and died shortly
afterward, ignorant <*f the trick by
" hich In* had been victimized. London

THE LOG JAM.
Quick and Sure Must Be the Workers
When !t Goes Out.
Log Jaiiw an- not an abnormal part
of tin* rivcrnmn's work, as most people
suppose, but a regular Incident <>f tbo
day's business. In the breaking of
them the Jam crew must be quick and
sure. I know of no liner sight than the
going out of a tall jam. The men pry,
heave and tug sometimes for hours.
'Mien all at once the apparently solid
surface begins to creak and settle. The
men zigzag rapidly t<> shore. A crash
and spout of waters mark when* the
tirst tier is already toppling Into the
current. The front melts like sugar.
A vast, formidable movement agitates
the brown tangle as far as you can sec,
and then with another sudden and
mighty crash tin* whole river hursts
Into a torrent of motion.
If everything Iimh gone well, the men
are all safe ashore, leaning on their
penvles. but ready at any instant to
hasten out f«• r the purpose of discour
aging by quick, hard work and tend
ency to plug on the part of the moving
timbers. I have seen men out of luu
vailo jump from the breast of a Jam
Just as it was hre. king down to a float
ing l<-g ahead, thus to lie carried lu the
nMcep and rush far down the river. \

KVKRY MAX HIS OWN DOCTOR.
The average man cannot afford
to employ a physician for every ail
ment or Injury that may occur in his
family, nor can he afford to neglect
them, as so slight an injury as tho
scratch of a pin has been known to
cause the loss of a limb. Hence every
nmn must from necessity be his own
doctor for this class of ailments.
Success often depends upon prompt
treatment, which can only be bad
when suitable medicines are kept at
hand. Chamberlain’s Remedies have
