A NEW BULLET-PROOF CLOTH.
It Does Not Cause a Shock to the One
’ Hit by a Missile.
An article™ i Public “Opinion de:
scribes the results of the Italian gov
ernment’s exjeriments with the Ben
detti bullet proof cloth. Theé “armor”
18 apparently 3 cort of felt, the stuff
“being capable of adaptation to any
form whatever, for example, a breast
piece with a collar or a sort of. coat
which completely envelops the wearer
and absolutely guarantees him from
gunshot wounds. = The thickness of
the protector. varies from one-six
teenth to seven sixteenths, according
to the arm the effects of which it is
designed to destroy.. Against the ar
mor of the seven-sixteenths of an
inch the regular ordnance revolver
with steel covered ball is powerless,
and also the gun of the 1891 model,
charged with smokeless powder. The
ball, whether it be of lead or steel,
when it strikes the protector is. ar
rested and deformed, in some cases
rebounding and in others being almost
reduced to pulp. Thus there is not
only an arrest of the ball, but deforma
tion as well, and in-this deformation
the force of the ball is converted.
It is natural to suppose that the
force of the ball would be communi
cated to the armor and that this
would be driven violently backward,
resulting in a disagreeable shock, and
one which at times would be danger
ous for the wearer. To demonstrate
the incorrectness of this view Signor
Benedetti attached his protector to
a horse and fired upon the animal
only six feet away with an_ ordnance
revolver, the ball falling at the feet
of the horse, while he, freed from his
halter, walked away as if nothing had
happened. It is to be noted that with
the same revolver a piece of steel had
been previously pierced. The same
experiment was made with a chicken
coverad with a breast piece of the
felt; the cock, after being rid of his
new shell, quietly pursued the even
tenor of his way. :
Mistaken Politeness.
A Fort street car was bowling along
toward Woodmere Cemetery the other
afternoon when a white-haired old
man who had been sitting quietly in
ftont of a stylishily-dressed young
woman who was standing up started
as if to rise and give her the five-cent
seat. The young woman put her hand
on his shoulder, and, gently restrau
ing him, said:
“Never mind, sir; just keep your
seat.”
The old man looked dazed for a
block or two, then attempted to gain
his feet, only to be again pushed back
by the young woman, politely remark
ing as she held him down:
- “Keep your seat, please; ['ve stood
up so long now that I don't mind it.”
“Well,” said the old. man, In surill
falsetto tones, “I want to git off!
You’ve made me go half a mile past
my street now!"”—Detroit News.
Sense of Smell in the Aged.
Old people have an atrophied sense
of smell, and they do not seem to be
conscious of this infirmity. - Even when
they can scarcely distinguish one
familiar odor in tea, and when they.
take strong smelling liquids for pure
water, thoy assert that they enjoy tha
perfume of flowers. Their visual im
ages, for they recognize the perfume
of flowers when they are able to see
ihem. The olfactive image thus has
an independent inteiectual existence,
since it is capable of fundamental re
vival. ; jo o

catarrh and colds, I know what I am
talking about. I have taken it every spring
and fall for four years and I find that
it keeps me robust, strong, with splendid
appetite, and free from an{ illness. A few
years ago it cured me of catarrh of the
