It is an interesting fact that green light seems to be the best adapted for fine jewelry work. A simple way to obtain such a light for the work bench is to use a special water lens, colored green, as shown in the drawing, says nigiglss Green Lights for Jewelers. the Popular Electricity. This may be on the order of the large colored globes seen in drugstore windows. The lamp is then suspended on the opposite side of the globe from the work in hand. ELECTRIC GUN IN WARFARE Pittsburg Man Has Discovered Method of Hurling Shell with Greater Power Than by Powder. There is no other sphere of achieve ment in which scientific invention ' and discovery keeps up its quick pace of progress more assuredly than in the arts and methods of warfare. There is not one of the half-dozen leading nations of the earth that is not interested in the problem of air navigation mainly because of the un derstanding that aeroplanes and steerable balloons will be mighty con venient for purposes of devastation and destruction. More than a hun dred chemical experiments, prob ably more than a thousand, have dur ing the past ten or fifteen years been endeavoring to find some yet more diabolic explosive than any before known, and some of them have suc ceeded. Now a Pittsburg man comes for ward with the bland suggestion that he has discovered a method of hurl ing by electric power a shell “with greater velocity than it can be driven by powder.” Not only so, but he claims that a single motor will fur nish electric force to operate a whole line of guns or a whole battleship ag gregation of guns. He proposes short ly to make a test with a field piece, and if his Invention does what he thinks it will do, the science of war will have made one more long stride in the direction of quick annlhila |ion. A solid missile hurled by electricity does not suggest a havoc quite so fear ful as some of the prophets have fore casted as a proable method of de structiveness to which artificially gen erated lightning wllf some day be ap plied. There is illustration every summertime of how naturally gener ator electricity can blast and destroy. It only remains for some genius to work out the problem of the artificial and dirigible thunder-storm. Let ub hope that before he succeeds the uni versal peace agreement will have been signed. ELECTRICAL TRAP FOR RATS Exterminator Is Simple in Construc tion —Circuit Operated Automat ically by Little Rodent. The Sclntiflc American, In describ ing a rat exterminator, Invented by J. W. M. Carmichael of Wellsburg, W. Va., says: The exterminator Is simple and cheap of construction, and one, which, by means of an electric circuit ar ranged to be automatically closed by the animal as it passes into and through the apparatus, will kill the Electric Rat Exterminator. rat. A further object is to construct the apparatus so that the rat as it is killed will fall from the entering pass age, and in which the circuit will be automatically opened preparatory to another operation. The engraving shows a longitudinal section view through the apparatus. World's Telephone Instruments. A census of the world’s telephone investment of $1,729,000,000, and the about 12,453,000, of which more than 67 per cent, are in the United States; Europe 26 per cent.; Canada, a shade over 2 1-2 per cent, and all other coun tries a trifle more than 4 per cent. Telephone plants represent a total Investment of $1,729, 000,000 (, and the number of yearly'phone connections is estimated at 22,000,000,000. TO ELIMINATE ALL DRUDGERY Chicago Housewives Form Club and Buy Electric Cleaners, Washing Machine, Flatirons and Fan. A women’s club has been formed in Chicago which might well be called the “Women’s Anti-Drudgery club.” • The club is not incorporated, has no officers or clubrooms, and consists of only six members. But the club has a purpose and this purpose is the eliminating of drudgery in the respec tive households of the m'embers. The club is the possessor of an electric vacuum cleaner, one electric washing machine, two electric irons and a fan for drying the washing. The only dues are those required for the upkeep of these labor savers, and this amount has been estimated to be about three cents a week. The "in itiation’’ fee consists of the price of the apparatus divided into six equal parts. The members have the use of any or all of the apparatus one day a week. For instance, Mrs. Brown may do her cleaning on Monday and her washing on Wednesday. She will have the vacuum cleaner on Monday and the washing machine, iron and fan on Wednesday. The scheme works out to every body’s satisfaction, it is- reported. A small boy has been hired to take the apparatus to the different houses, which are all in one neighborhood. HANDY ELECTRIC COOK STOVE Fireless Principle Is Employed In Op eration of Cooker —Heat Is Auto matically Controlled. A new automatically operated elec tric cook stove, manufactured by a Michigan concern, employs the fireless principle of operation, the heating elements of which are inclosed In thermally insulated compartments, and cut off automatically when the ovens have reached the predetermined temperatures for the cooking opera tions required. The Installation comprises two sepa rate cooker ovens, one for boiling and the other for baking and roasting, says the Popular Mechanics. Each oven is fitted with a dial-type ther- Electric Fireless Cooker. mometer, the pointer of which, upon making contact with an adjustable hand, momentarily closes an auxiliary circuit, tripping out the heater switch. The temperature at which the heating element Is thus disconnected can be set at any desired point by means of the thumb-controlled contact pointer. For the boiler the cutting-out point is ordinarily set at 212 degrees Fahr enheit and for the roasting oven, at 375 degrees. After the tempera ture required to operate the cut-out has been reached, the cooking pro ceeds with the heat already stored In the oven, the stove thus becoming a fireless cooker. By reason of the alarm clock pro vided, the housewife may place the articles to be boiled, baked or roasted in the stove, and go away for the af ternoon, knowing that the oven will begin heating at the time she has set the alarm. When the alarm operates, a lever on the winding key throws a switch closing the circuit to the heat ing elements. Later, wheh the pre determined temperatures have been reached in the ovens, the circuit Is broken, and the ovens go on cooking with the heat they have stored up. Electric lighting is now employed in the ancient cathedral of Rouen. A slanting aerial In wireless tele graphy Is less efficient than a horizon tal one. Electrolytic etching Is used by a new process to produce hardened steel dies. Liberia will be given a wireless sta tion with 2,500 miles radius by a French company. Several German cities are using street washing machines driven and operated by storage batteries. Electric heaters provided comfort for animals from the tropics In a New York zoological park last winter. A generator weighing but twenty pounds for supplying electric lights to aeroplanes has been perfected. London has more than 2,000 motor omnibuses and the number is being increased at a rate of thirty a week. A motor-driven hedge trimmer, tak ing electricity through a cord as it is held in the hand, has been Invented. An accident in a London hospital led to the discovery that some forma of deafness could be cured by X-rays. Wireless telegraphy has received the credit for saving 22 ocean going vessels from loss In the last three years. An electric cab which is finding fa vor in Berlin is a three-wheeled af fair with the body and seats complete ly enclosed. oSra 1 ~ ■ r‘ i g| T '' T . 1 — i:-- ——iS.

The President began to speak; his voice was mostly groan: "I cannot understand why we are sitting here alone; The term began two weeks ago, and still within our halls There are no strident whoopings and there are no raucus calls; The bell Is in the belfry and the desks are on the floor— There’s been no riot such as in the palmy days of yore. "No husk’y lads have swaggered as they loitered in to class.

Then spoke the wise professor, he who taught dynamic force; "Inertia may be traced, as well as mo tion, to its source.

"I thought she was a woman of unbreakable will,” said the gentleman with the bob-tail coat. “And so she was,” said the man with the incandescent whiskers. "Yet, you tell me she Is completely subservient to her husband,” went on the first gentleman. “Well, you see, she married a law yer, and he broke the will.” By Papa’s System. “How many quarts in a gallon?” asked the teacher. “Six,” answered the little son of the market man. “No, no, Johnny. Only four.” “Huh, I guess I’ve seen ’em sell enough strawberries to know.” His Plan. “And do you expect to make your dirigible balloon company a success?” we ask of the high-browed inventor. “Oh, yes,” he answers. “I have al ready filled the speculators full of hot air and have quite a surplus for use . in my balloon.” Japheth’s Idea. “I hardly know what to do with the ark after we land,” mused Noah. “Why don’t you kill those two mos quitoes and start a summer hotel?” asked Japheth.
