RUINS OF THE TEMPLE OF SAN FRANCISCO AFTER THE SEIS

—=James Carson, Mexico, in Leslie’s.
Gas Burner Attachment,
For some unaccountable reason,
persons desiring to commit guicide by
asphyxiation invariably sclect a hotel
for the purpose. By a recent inven
tion of an Oregon man it becomes
possible for the night clerk to in
stantly tell if the gas in any unoccu
pied room has been lighted, or if the
gas is escaping from any jet not
lighted, The device also acts as a
prevention of accidentsresulting from
the accidental escaping of gas due to
a failure to light the same, or due to
‘the gas having been blown out after
being lighted.. The apparatus is
shown in the illustration, and con
sists of an ordinary burner and sup
ply pipe. Attached to the latter, di
rectly over the burner, is a smoke
bell, connected to an electric eircuit.
The stop cock regulating the flow of
gas is at the end of the smoke bell.

As soon as the stop cock is turned on
the electric circuit is closed and a bell
or indicator located at any desired
point is operated to call attention to
the fact that the gas has been turned
on. When the gas is lighted, the
heat causes a break in the circuit and
the bell stops. If the gas should be
accidentally or intentionally extin
guished by other means than the
closing of the stop cock, the absence
of heat closes the circuit and causes
the bell to ring.—Washington Star.

Nerve Stimulant,
Taking up the old question of the
effects of nerve stimulants upon the
capacity for work, Armand Gautier
has shown that when kola is given to
a horse fatigue seems to be lessened,
and half a mile or more is added to
the distance the animal can travel per
hour. lt‘ was further proven, how
ever, that the horseloses more weight
than the one that has received no
stimulant. This drug, like alcohol,
can whip up the tissues, but the arti
ficially produced energy is at the ex
pense of the living machine.—Chris«
tian Work and Evangelist.

CAMPAIGN CIGARS.
Public Opinion Wrong About Their
Quality, a Manufacturer Thinks.
“l see that a member of the Ohlo
lL.egislature i 8 trying again this year to
have the bill passm>d he introducel
two years ago to prohibit the giving
of tobacco in any form for campaign
purposes,” said a Pearl street cigar
manufacturer. “It is clear enough
that this is a direct slap at the cam
paign cigar, but even if the bill went
through in Ohio aund in every otner
State in the Union, the cigarmakers
wouldn’t lose any sleep over it,
“It ig a peculiar fact that although
it is ‘g]l known that in every cam
paign, whether it is for the election
of a school trustee or a president, a
great quantity of cigars are distribut.
ed Dby the candidates, the manufac.
turers never observe an increase in
their business. On the contrary a
présidential election invariably has
a bad effect on business.
“One of the mysteries of the trade
is why so much odium should be at
tached to what is popularly called
the ‘campaign cigar. I have never
heard that manufacturers turned out
peculiarly evil brands of cigars in
presidential years.
“Isn’t it possible that these are the
ordinary five cent cigars of commerce
‘which are having ‘their reputation
dragged in the dirt by professional
jokesmiths? Anyway, why do can
didates hand out campaign cigars?
INobody ever heard that one cigar or
even a whole box of them ever chang
ed a voter's attitude toward an office
seeker.”—New York Sun.
THE FIRST TASTE
Learned to Drink Coffee When a Baby
If parents realized the fact that
coffee contains a drug—caffeine—
which is especially harmful to chil
dren, they would doubtless hesitate
before giving the babies coffee to
drink.
“*When I was a child in my moth
er's arms and first began to nibble
things at the table, mother used to
give me sips of coffee. As my parents
used coffee exclusively at meals I nev
er knew there was anything to drink
but coffee and water. :
““And so I contracted the coffee
habit early. I remember when quite
young, the continual use of coffee so
affected my parents that they tried
roasting wheat and barley, then
ground it in the coffee-mill, as a sub
stitute for coffee.
“But it did not taste right and
then went back to coffee again. That
was long before Postum was ever
heard of. I continued to use coffee
until I was 27, and when I got into
office work, I began to have nervous
spells. Especially after breakfast I
was so nervous I could scarcely at
tend to my correspondence,
‘““At night, after having coffee for
supper, I could hardly sleep, and on
rising in the morningwould feel weak
and nervous.
“*A friend persuaded me to try Pos
tum. My wife and I did not like it at
first, but later when boiled good and
strong it was fine,. Now we would
not give up Postum for the best coffee
we ever tasted.
“I can now get good sleep, am free
from nervousness and headaches. I
recommend Postumtoallcoffee drink
ers.

Tuberculin Tests.
Dr. 8. H. Guilliand stated in a pa
per read before the American Veter
inary Society that in a series of ex
periments with 658 cows none of the
healthy animals showed any decrease
in the amount of milk it gave on ac
count of the test, and dairymen
should not fear to have their cows
tested, for only the affected cattie
would produce less milk on account
of the test.
Grain of the Axe Handle.
The right grain is very important
in an axe handle for two reasons:
First, that if you break it, as you
generally do at ‘work, you may have
to go miles for a fresh one, and when
got, lose a lot of time taking the
remains out and putting the new
handle in.
Another thing about a bad-grained
handle is that when chopping a big
tree you find out it is hollow by
the simple process of your axe-head
flying through the middle of the cut,
and your handle only hitting the solid
wood at the edge of the pipe. When

The Right Grain.
this occurs, the bad handle parts
across the middle, and the other half
and the axe head fall down inside.
You can then exercise your mind as
to whether it will pay you to chop
it out at the bottom or buy a new
axe.
The right shape and thickness
~aries with the size of the user’s hand
and length of arm swing. The main
essential is that it shall run freely
through his right hand when using.
To judge a mnew axe's balance,
grasp it and stand as if about to
swing. Now open the hands flat, and
let the axe lie 'loosely on them. If
blade and poll are properly balanced
the axe will lie perfectly flat. llf

either has the advantage it will dip
that way. If a first-class axe is bad
ly balanced get your blacksmith to
cut off enough to balance if he can
temper. If not, put up with the evil,
as he will spoil your axe's temper,
perhaps spoil the steel altogether.—
R. Kaleski, in the American Culti
vator, B
Breeding Horses.
A successful breeder of draft
horses, Mr. J. P. Nunan, of Ontario,
Canada, gives some good advice ia
the following:
If you want a good, safe brood
mare, breed her young, and don’t ex
pect to raise a good horse from a bro
ken down and worn out mare, as she
cannot transmit what she has not got
~—that is, the stamina and vigor nec
essary for a good horse.
Try to stick to the type yvou have,
unless it is bad and you want to
change altogether; then, buy a good
sound mare or two and start fresh;
it is surer and cheaper.
In choosing a sire, even if you
know there is a better horse in the
neighborhood, still stick to your type.
Don’t quarrel with your neighbor
about the merits of the different
breeds. You might as well down a
man's wife as his favorite breed of
horses. Any of the heavy breeds are
good enough, provided you aim at the
best type of that breed, but if you
like one better, that is the one for
you to breed.
Take the neighborhood in which I
am writing, and for the last forty
years there have been two and three
real good heavy stallions traveling
and doing a good business here every
year, horses that cost their owners in
many cases from S2OOO to S3OOO, all
imported, and last summer I asked
the owner of one how many mares he
was getting and he said about a hun
dred. I asked how many of them
were mares from which a man should
expect a good draft colt. He consid
ered carefully, and said about ten.
Think of it, after forty years, one in
ten, and I have seen going away from
the station by the carload the best
type of young mares, going because
they sold well; the culls were kept
at home. This is killing the goose
that lays the golden egg. If a farmer
has two fillies, one worth $250, the
other worth $75, and a buyer comes
along, eight times out of ten he will
sell the good one and keep the other,
spd nine times out of ten he will
breed her and raise some more just
like her, and then blame the sire and
the man who has risked a couple ol
thousand dollars, often all he has, to
place a good horse at his disposal.
Applying Lime,
Will lime hurt wheat and timothy
just coming through the ground?
Which would serve the best purpose,
to put the lime on this winter early,
or wait until spring? The field con
tains fifteen acres and is rather wet
clay bottom. Which do you consider
best, shell lime or ground stone lime?
—T. M. L. [lt is evidently intended
to ask whether sprinkling lime on
the surface will kill young plants of
wheat and timothy growing when the
lime is applied. If caustic lime, it
certainly would burn the foliage to
some extent. The proper place for
lime is mixed with the soil not ap
plied at the surface. - Especially is
this true when it is added to a clay
soil to amend the mechanical condi
tion. It ought not to be applied to a
growing crop, but to the land before
the seed is put in, that it may be
mixed with the surface few inches,
there to do its good work. If the lime
can be added this fall before snow
covers the ground it may be better
than no lime, and perhaps better
than next spring. The lime is for the
most part insoluble or very slightly
soluble, and will not wash away un
less on a steep side hill. Better wait
now until the ground is again bare,
then apply a week or more before
seeding and thoroughly mix with the
soil. Shell lime ought to be the bet
ter if in proper state of fineness and
free from dirt. It ought to be a
practically pure carbonate of lime.
1t ought to be bhetter than ground
limestone. ' Usually, however, it is
mixed with foreign matters and is
less valuable than common lime.]—

Investment in Trecs.
The planting and care of fores:
trees has been carried on for several
years now by State Forester A. T
Hawes, of Connecticut, with interest
ing results. Mr. Hawes’ experience
boiled down to a few lines indicates
that for sandy, cheap lands such as
were used for most of the experi
ments the best trees are pines, white,
Scotch, Norway and pitch. It ap
pears that in the long run white pine
is the best, the trees being cheaper
and the growth through a term of
vears being equal to any and the
lumber of good market value. The
Norway pine is also considered very
satisfactory, although the trees cost
more at the outset. The Scotch pine
is a very rapid grower and will do
well for planting in open spaces,
white pine requiring some shade of
bushes or brush to do its best at the
start. Two-year-old trees are most
satisfactory.
The young pines can be bought for
about $3 per 1000, and at five or sig
feet apart are set 1500 to the acre.
In fairly open land the cost of plant
ing was $1.70 per 1000, with higher
costs in rough or bushy ground. Ex
amination of a number of old planta
tions of white pine in the State indi
cates that with cheap lands and low
cost planting the pine would prove
profitable as a crop, paying at least
five per cent. compound interest at
present prices of lumber., with every
probability that prices will be higher
by the time plantings now made are
ready for market.

and was extremely nervous. My physi

about Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound, and I took it and wrote you
for advice, following your directions

all my friends of my experience.”

Increase in Lunacy,
Within the last half century there
has been a remarkable increase of
lunacy in Ireland. In 1901 there were
25,050 lunaties in Ireland, or one in
every 179 of the population. In 1851
there were only 350 in the entire
county Antrim and Belfast, but to
day there are 2,300, an increase of
1,950. In 1881 the percentage of lun
atics per 10,000 of the population in
England was 30.4, in Scotland 34, and
in Ireland 30.5. Last year the fig
ing, and perhaps this is not a mat
ures were: England 40.8 per 10,000
of the population: Scotland, 45, and
Ireland 56.2.—805t0n Herald.
