KonuomDdnu Material* Which Otherwise Would He Thrown Away. It is quite the fashion to speak of tbo French people as being the most eco nomical of any in the world, as. they allow nothing to he wasted which cm* in any way be utilized. Hut it appears to us that the people of this country are not far behind in the matter of economizing materials that would otherwise he wasted. Do we not use beef’s blood for door knobs! Are we not putting doors and blinds into our houses made of wood pulp? We also use paper doors, blinds, etc., to say nothing of paper ear wheels, paper boats, paper nails and other utensils too numerous to mention. Paper, as wo know, is made of materials whieh would ordinarily be wasted if not thus used. Sawdust has bocomo an impor tant article of commerce, as it is large ly used in plaster. Coal dust is now used in many ways as a fuel, yielding an intense heat, and very useful ill some kinds of manufacturing. The very dirt beneath our feet is transformed by the arts of various craftsmen into building materials, hav ing tlronroof qualities, or it is trans muted into the IInest pottery, or tlio most delicate porcelain for crystal. Also from clay wo extract a metal, which, by reason of now processes, bids fair to rival iron in usefulness in building. Wo refer to aluminum, which, whilo not a now metal, has heretofore been too expensive to come into general use. By a now invention, however, which renders its manufac-. turo much easier and cheaper, it is likely to become the metal of tho future for special uses in place of iron. It is a beautiful inetul, resembling the brightest silver, and is very tough and durable. Alumina, as is well known, when found in its pure state crystal lized, is that royal gem, the sapphire, next in hardness to the diamond. From the slug of the blast furnace the skillful manipulator produces ; tine, soft wool which is perfectly lion combustible, and, if properly applied, will render our houses practically fire proof. Wo might go on ad.intlnitum,’ hut wo will close the subject by men tinning ono of the latest triumphs in tlio art of utilizing wasto materials— that of manufacturing u composition which can bo molded into any orim menUil shape required out of tlio chips of granite from the stone cutter's yard. It is said that lino decorative stone work can thus bo produced at about one-tenth the cost of cut stono orna mental work, and yet yield a good profit to the manufacturer. Also that this material may he vitrilled so that it will take on a permanent polish as fine as that of polished granite. —Ar chitectural Era. A CURIOUS WRINKLE. >K 1'. .

Nearly every jeweler lays down a rule never to credit anybody for a clock or watch or anything that keeps lime. I don’t know why this is and never heard any good reason assigned for it, but nevertheless it is a fact. And, moreover, we firmly believe that a watch or a clock that is brought to us for repairs or regulating will never keep good time if the owner does not pay cush for the job. You know we do a big credit business. I suppose jewelers do a larger credit business than any other cluss of merchants, and it no doubt seems surprising that we have a class of trade that is barred from the credit list on account of a su perstition.—Atlanta Journal. .Somctlilni; Humlng. Ono day little Polly was driving with the rest of the family, when a disagreeable odor penetrated the air, doubtless proceeding from one of the country houses which they were then passing. “Something is burning,” said one of the company, snilling the air. “Feathers!" suggested another. “Hair!” “Flannel!” “I guess I know what it is,” piped up little Polly, in all seriousness, got a piece of peppermint in my mouth, and it burns my tongue aw fully.”- -Youth’s Companion. Ten Dollars for Oiio Word, Professor Foster, of Wntcrvillc, re cently received a dispatch from Swa- tow, China, consisting of but one word, “Good.” It cost him $10, but ho considers it cheap enough, as it an.- nounced to him the birth of a gram daughter, and’tliat all were doing well. The dispatch came from liis son, Rev. John Foster, and left Swatow 7 o’clock in the morning, and before noon was delivered to the professor at his house in Waterville.-- Waterville Sentinel. Gen. Greely, chief of the signal ser vice at Washington, is in receipt of at least twenty letters a day from cranks who solemnly hold him responsible i for the weather. A Grv‘«t. Aunt.** Very lVmillnr ltequ*rtfc tw* tier VtinnU DMunmlniitit. In general heirlooms ami bequests arc curiously intermixed with the comic and the tragic. I heard of un, estimable family who at ono time-re joiced in the possession of a relative who was sick as well as eccentric. She was great-great grand aunt, or some thing of that sort. In her youth; and even old age, she was gifted with re markable beauty of form. While she left this family the bulk of her for tune she also left them a singular be quest, which involved a simple pair of black silk stockings and $1,000. Tlio terms accompanying this bequest wore as follows: The stockings were to re main in tbo family to ho transmitted from generation to generation until some female member of the family mid till thorn without a wrinkle be- upparont. - n R . - receive the $1,000 and all interest ac cruing thereon sinen tho day of deposit in the hank. A queer bequest, truly 1 Rut while Limu lias sped on, and that original $1,000 has grown to almost ten times that amount, tlio money has never l)oen claimed. Why? Well, l wus given an opportunity one day to notice the articles of agreement to which n small fortune is attached. At first sight they do not dlil’er in appoumneo from tho very ones I have on at this moment. I thought I would try them on and see wherein lay the difficulty. I did. It would hnvo taken u few quarts of Bi«wd\jfd to fill up the surplus waste. The actual measurement of the middle imrlof Lhutslocking was sixteen inches, llonoo tlio discrepancy. None of tho aforesaid family are troubled with un due leanness. Yet not ono of its mem bers has boon able to como within two inches of tho proscribed requirements. I-don't know whether this bequest re flects credit on tho old ludy and dis credit on our girls or not, but I do think tho terms uru rather exacting.— Cor. Chicago Times. Pltfiir«Mi llffffitrilliiff VI Iff III. Among recent investigations which go to encourage believers in future Hying machines ure those prov ing that greatly exaggerated ideas of tho force exerted by birds have been held, and that large birds have wings proportionately much smaller than those of small flying creatures. Certain insects flutter enor mously large wings at tlio rate of 200 or 300 vibrations per second, while tho pelican Haps it relatively insignifi cant area of wing surffice only once per second’. Tho vulture is 100 times us large as the swallow, hut its wings are only if> times us large; and the Australian crane weighs 8.000,000 limes as much as tho gnut, while the latter has 150 times us much wingsur face per unit of weight. Tho euglo in full flight, instead of using 13 horse power as was formerly computed, exerts only a fraction ol J horse power, A pigeon flying 2,200 feet per minute (nearly 25 miles per hour) exerts 1 -200th of a horse power per pound, equal to 9 1-3 horse power for a flying machine weighing 1 ton at 25 miles an hour, or 50 horse power nor ton weight at 50 miles an hour. That mechanical science will ho equal to adjusting these figures to the re quirements of air traveling, declures Dr. Andrew Wilson, seems only a reasonable deduction from fuels us they stand.

A wealthy citizen of Cincinnati, who died, left a clause in his will providing that ono of his sons should bo chnrgci! with $1,000 in “proof coin.” It scenic that ho had an old desk at his home in which he kept his private papers. In ono of tho drawers he would throw the small coin and cmingo that came to his hand. This had beon going on for years, until tho sum had reached $1,000. Tho money disappeared, anti tho theft was traced to a Wayward son This was several years ago. In the meantime the sou contracted an un fortunate matrimonial alliunco, and disappeared from Cincinnati. But the futhor remembered tho crime, and the abstraction will face tho young man whon he conies to draw his portion of tho estate.—Philadelphia Ledge tger. Improvement III Traction, A novel contrivunco which is claim ed to give improved tractive power is reported from Chicugo. Tho mucliine. which is about fifty feet long and flf teen tons in weight, runs on a track which it lays for itself, and which consists of a bolt of steel plates or laths, four uml a half feet long, in closing four largo cog wheels, which play into the sockets of tho plates and ,rd.

The blade had passed between the con volutions of the Drain, which was uninjured. The near est incident that could account for the presence of the blade in the man’s brain had ocoured nine inonthsbefore, when he was thrown from a wagon and hud his head severely hurt.—Philadelphia Ledger.
