Not long ago, however, she had a pneumonia case which was given up by the physician, much to the nurse’s chagrin. “He can’t live through the night,” said the doctor.

At. the comi: ; exhibition In Earl's Court, London, Queensland is going to exhibit a fountain of quicksilver. Engi neer i ’huri'li, who lias the novel exhibit in charge, says: “What wo are going to have is an ar rangement of two basins, one above the other. These will be of iron, enameled black, to give a greater effect to the fall ing quicksilver, the top one some five feet in diameter and tin low er one three feet larger. The nu rciiry will run into the upper bowl from i height and thence by little channels ind the edge Into the lower basin. ‘ The supply will be So arranged that there is an almost continual flow—at least that is what wo hope to obtain. As it drops into the lower bowl the mercury will be conducted by a glass lined iron pipe to a reservoir tank and thence lifted by a motor so that it may return by the delivery pipa to the upper bowl again. The weight of the mercury used will be about two tons, and the piping for the de livery will be 106 feet long and that for the return to the tank SO feet. Each tank will hold two cubic feet of quicksilver, and the elevator apparatus will bo re quired to raise about one ton an hour. “ Probably the thing that will attract most attention will be a few ordinary household flatirons, which are to be floated in the bottom basin, for the density of the mercury supports iron as water does wood. I see it has been stated that our fountain would throw a jet seven feet high. That is. ridiculous, if not impossible, for the cost of machinery to do such a thing would be tremendous—that is, allowing that it could be done, which I doubt.” — London Mail. C yv JS TL O XX X A. .

Pasco Was Always Paired- The Pittsburg Dispatch is responsi ble for the following : The defeat of Senator Pasco of Flor ida, will remove from the Senate a member with a unique record. Senator Pasco has been in congress tor twelve years, and during that time his record shows that he never voted directly on any question. He has had a chronic pair ever since he took his seat. The reason for this is that Senator Pasco had charge of the pairs on the Demo cratic side, and it was h:» duty to see that all Democrats absent were prop erly paired. To do this he was almost always obliged to pair bim-elf, not on account of the absence of a Democrat, but out ot courtesy to Republicans Whenever a Republican was absent and demanded a pair on the Demo cratic side, Senator Pasco had to fur nish it It became a standing rule in the Senate when the roll wa- called ami Senator Pasco’s name reached for the little senator from Florida to rise in his seat and say “Mr President, I am paired with 'lm setiat >r from ■ If be were present be would vote yea, and I would vote nay,” the Florida senator, of course, varying the last part of his remarks according to the question. It would have given the tally clerk heart failure it Stmitor Pasco had ever cast a direct vote. _— * . Pretty Tie For Tiny Girl's Hair. There never has been a prettier way of arranging the tresses of a little child than the present mode of tying the dainty locks on either -ide of the face. This keeps the hair out of the eyes—a most Important Consideration —and gives a quaint, tidy look to the face that is very sweet and en dearing. If the hair curls naturally, then all the better.
