AN INTERNATIONAL PABTNEBSHIP. ErastUs Wnuau writes iu lhe Nurlli American Heview a striking article on the British capital Ix-'ing invested in American iM,lu.-tri-*^ .i I the rate of a million dollar a w"i'k. lirilibh invesUiioiiti here were in the iirst place in ranches, mines and murt^nges. liut the character of invesMuenu lias undergone a distinct change. Ranches and farm niortpa^es turned out dUustrously. The trend is now strongly in the direction of manufacturing industries.
The new investments began with the wholesale purchase of breweries. A brewers'syndicate has not less than §12,000.000 invested in St. Louis. Then followed rapidly grain elevators and Hour mills and iron.steel and other industries, Warner's patent medicine establishment passed into English hands at a price of three millions and a half. llr. Wirnan points out the. exceeding care which our British cousins take to prevent loss. First they ascertain perfectly the prejent and past condition of an industry uiat is offered them That done, when they buy, the new company is incorporated uuuer the local laws of its own suite. Men of solid standing in England are chosen is the officers uf the company. Finally the American owners of the industry, those who have brought it to prosperity, are in all cases required to retain not less than one-third interest
In it still and continue in ax-live management. The last is a wise and necessary pre caution. Our native American ifiliation do not ike kindly to the business methods of John Bull, esjnicially lii. lordly assumption of superiority, :is cer tain corporations have found to their cost, when attempting to run their business with British clerks and managers.
In answer to the query why the American proprietors of so many successful business enterprises are willing to sell, llr. Wiman says that America is th country where capital is needed. Manufacturing establishments and plants are eularyed at the expense of their capital and evrn t\(.o largest proprietors are apt to be crampCti- for money. Therefore they are willing to give capitalists a share in t,heir business. One of the results of the vast influx of foreign capital will be to still more consolidate great business enterprises and diminish com petition.
SCHOOL FOH MALE NURSES. In connection with the Bellevue Medi cal college in New York is the only training school for male nurses in this country. There is only one other in the world, and that is in London. Numerous such schools are in the country for train ing women nurses, but at last it is pro]»sed to let men invade educational courses hitherto deemed sacred to women.
The superintendent of the male nurses' training school is a woman, lira. O. S. "NYillard, who is a graduate of the Belle vue school for female nurses. Six young women graduates of the samo establishment give ward instruction to the men there being no male nurses to be found that arc competent to this task. As fast as young men are graduated who can take charge of the ward instruction they take the places of the women. It is said the women have the greatest difficulty in teaching a man how to put a pillow into a pillow case properly.
To enter the school a man must be of sound health and morals, between the ages of "1 and 35, able to read and write well and keep accounts. lie must be also able to read aloud well, which not ono American in two hundred can do. Tho ....... course in the training school lasts two years. There are many applications from men desiring to be pupils.
The Kesult of Merit.
When anything stauds a test of fifty years among a di criminating people like the Americans, it is pretty good evidence that there is merit somewhere. The value of a medicino is liest proved by its continued use from year to year by the same persons and families, as well as by a steadily increasing sale. 1'ew, if any, medicines have met with
as has marked the introduction and progress of Brandreth's pills, which, after a trial of over fifty years are conceded to be the safest and most effectual purgative introduced to the publio,
That this is the result of merit, and that Brandreth's Pills actually perform all that is claimed for them, is conclusively proved by the fact that those who regard them with the greatest favor are those who have used them tho longest
Bradreth's pills arc sold in every ..drug and medicine store, either plain or sugarcoated.

Gurgles witli Delight.
•\Ve notice from .our eastern exchanges that some of the popular shades in dress goods this winter are described as "dragoon'sbloi)!l," "elephant breath" and pale pink, railed "stilled sighs/'
Wo just gurgled with delight when wo heard this, liecause all these colors are so unique. We were real glad with a regular Pan-America gladness for the dear IT -]. for a girl loves to be unique, ilon't von know, even if she has to wear it under her wrapier. A girl dressed in elephant's breath, hung in graceful folds and looped up and fastened at tho corners with stilled sighs, with a corsage of old gold, slashed with dragoon's gore, would he just too lovely for anything
We have been sighing for just such a girl for years, but our sigh had hardly stifle enough in it to match the new color. We have sent for a remnant ol stifled sigh to make a necktie of it. It ap|x-ars to us that elephant's breath would lie rather strong for real comfort in the summer time, especially if the elephant was inclined to be dissipated.
Dragon's blood should only be worn in spots, a la polka dot, as it were, and should 'never le worn v.-ithout being well sprinkled with ashes of rose to tono it down. In the absence of roses, wood ashes or cigar ashes would answer ai ell. But there is a fullness and a pat hoe about the stilled sigh which will make it rank favorite the moment society corrals it. It is so delicate and yet so far reach inr. A Mgh at any time is a dear thinp to look- at. but when it is stifled and worn full in the back, with box plaiting lown the sides and caught up with silver buckles into a double cinche about the waist, it is simply a dream.—Lasser
Advocate.
Thf Trip Ilouml the World. A goiid deal of stir has been madeovei the journey round the world undertaken by an enterprisingyoung American lady, who hopes to accomplish the feat in matter of seventy days. In point of fact, however, an expedition of the kind hai but little to recommend it. and to acer tain degree reminds one of wagers made by foolish individuals to swallowgiven number of hard eggs withoul drinking, or to go a given number of lays without eating, and so forth. The journey undertaken by the young American lady is wholly devoid of scientific interest and can offer no charm to the traveler. It is simply a matter of calcu lation and of railway and steamer guides. Sitting in one's own home, it Is easy tc make calculations of this nature and tc map out one's journey on paper. In ex ocuting the plan afterward the only anx iety the traveler round the world has is not to miss a boat or train and provided there is no hitch in this direction, th« feat can be eiv- !v accomplished, unless perchance an accident occurs en route, or the traveler is detained a few hours by a sudden attack of illness. For a wager, of course, enterprises of the kind may be undertaken but with all the facilities for a rapid tour round the world afforded lv railways, steamers and othei means of transit, it is a foregone conclusion that tho traveler will accomplish the journey unless some unforeseen accident interrupt it.—London Standard.
Those Terrible Wirea.
It is a certain thing that all electric wires will have to go under ground, and tho quicker the work is performed the better fur the people of St. Louis. It if a dangerous piece of business to pick up the ear truni[et of a telephone carelessly, for a linger may come in contact with the bra.ss end, which would be followed by the death of the careless individual if tho phone wires were crosssed by any of the electric wires. Take a small compass and watch how easily it can be upset by simply bringing the eai trumpet of this phone within a foot of it. This ought not to be tho case, and il plainly shows that the wires are highly charged with elictricity, which accountf for the loud buzzing sound heard when a person endeavors to use the telephone.
If an exposed electric wire should come in contact with a piece of metal on roof, the result would be a confiagratior which could not be put out, as it is use less to throw water on an electric wire with the idea of stopping the fiamee which ensue, as water would make a non-conductor a conductor, and the fin would rapidly spread. The damage t( various buildings, telephones and switch boards inflicted during the past wcet wao only the work of the wires of hall of the companies which have contract* to illuminate the city, and what the result will I*? when all the lights are readj to lx lit, nobody can foreshadow.—Interview in .St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
The Slaughter of the Birds.
The Japan Weekly Mail in raising an I energetic protest againt the barbarous, but, unhappily, fashionable custom ol I .•earing feathers ami wings of singing! birds as ornaments in hats. The writei declares bitterly against the European mode of dress, which is now superseding die picturesque and comfortable dress of the Japanese women, and asks if this latest addition is to be allowed to continue. An order has just reached Japan I from Europe for 100,000 wings. Each 1 wing is bought for the small sum of five cents, and yet there arc to be found many people who will kill the native songsters for this petty price, to the enormous future damage of the farmers. The Japan Mail appeals to the government to stop this massacre among the I feathered tribes.
I-img llonia In Germany.:
The American cattle recently shipped
undue familiarity on the part of the good natured Teutons. An aihusing statement comes from Mr. Smith, United States commercial agent at Mayence, Germany: "Meat is high in price, and German butchers have been importing live cattle from America. But the importers have been greatly astonished by the wild and ferocious aspect of the American steers, as compared with that of their own milder tempered cattle, and it is feared that the sale of the oxen from the New World will be injured thereby."
