An Ohio man has invented a bicycle
and automobile tire stuffed with rope
and yarn.
It is said that the method of produ¬
cing anesthesia by means of electri¬
city, discovered by Prof. Le Due of
Nantes, Prance, is applicable to the
painless execution of criminals.
The fruit of the karite tree is now
being handled in fair commercial
quantities for the production of a
cheap type of vegetable grease, use
il for the manufacture of soap and
candles. The natives of Africa hull the
nut, which somewhat respfiibles the
chestnut; mash and boil the kernels,
skimming off the floating grease,
which has also food value.
On attaining full growth, the silk¬
worm stops feeding and throws out
silken threads. The silk is formed in
a fluid condition and issues from the
body of the worm in a glutinous state
—apparently in a single thread. From
this silk the worm constructs its co¬
coon, an interval of from three to five
days being required to complete its
imprisonment in the envelope. In or¬
der that the silken strands may not
be subjected to the danger of break¬
age by the moth emerging from the
cocoon, the cocoons are steamed till
the inclosed insects are dead. After
this the silk may be wound off.
Consular Agent Gustav C. Kothe
of Cassel, an agency of the Frank¬
fort consulate, states that an archi¬
tect of that city has been granted
patents in Germany and other Euro¬
pean countries and also in the United
States for an invention for the manu¬
facturing of glass telegraph and tele¬
phone poles. The glass mass of which
the’ poles are made is strengthened by
interlacing and intertwining with
strong wire threads. One of the prin
cipal advantages of these poles would
be their use in tropical countries,
where Wooden poles are soon de¬
stroyed by the ravages of insects and
where climatical influences are ruin¬
ous to wood.
A . of tests , made . recently ,, ot .
series
the different electric lighting systems
gave results greatly ° in favor of the
tube . , system. As . far .'
vacuum qfl possi
ble all the different lamps were test¬
ed under the same circumstances, and
it was shown that the long vacuum
tubes were the most satisfactory and
the most economical. While the vir¬
tues of this comparatively new meth¬
od are manifest, there are certain dis¬
advantages connected with their use
which must be overcome before they
can be generally accepted for service.
The disagreeable color of the glow,
which was very noticeable at first,
has been overcome in a great measure
and the system otherwise perfected.
a Oxaluria,” a New Nerve Disease
That he had discussed a new disease
of the nerves, which he terms “oxai
Uria,” before the recent international
medical congress in Vienna, was stat¬
ed yesterday by Dr. Gustav Baar, of
Portland, Ore. The physician was one
of three representatives sent from this
country to attend the biennial meet¬
ing of medical men.
“I have determined that in many
cases the breaking down of the nerves
fore the congress I read a treatise "on
large quantities of oxalic acid in the
system,” said Dr. Baar. “This dis¬
ease I have named oxaluria, and be¬
fore the congress I read treatise on
my discoveries and recommendations
as to proper treatment.
“For one thing, I believe that the
so-called ‘rest cure’ will soon be a
thing of the past as a treatment for
nervous exhaustion. On the contrary
a stimulation of the muscular ener¬
gies is needed and the patient will be
more immediately benefited and ulti¬
mately cured.”—New York Herald.
Took the Prayer Back.
A very devout Presbyterian clergy¬
man in the middle west had just mar¬
ried a couple, and, as was his custom,
offered a fervent prayer, invoking the
divine blessing upon them. As they
seemed to he worthy folk and not
overburdened with this worU's goods,
he prayed, among other things, for
their material prosperity, and be¬
sought the Lord to greatly increase
the man’s business, laying much
stress on this point.
In filling out the blanks it became
necessary to ask the man his business
and to the minister's horor he said:
“I keep a saloon.”
In telling the story to his wife af
terward the clergyman said that as he
wrote down the occupation he whis
pered:

A Revolutionary Machine.
A revolution in the sending and
receiving of telegraph messages is
taking place throughout the
United States, owing to the telegraph
printing machines which are being
installed in the metropolitan offices of
the telegraph companies.
In sending, the messages are
“punched” or spelled out in the Morse
characters on an endless tape, The
tape is then fed into a sending ma¬
chine, where a wheel moves it along
and in the right direction. The holes
in the tape allow contacts to be made
which control the receiving mechan¬
ism. The receiving machine is some¬
what like an electrically controlled
typewriter. Electrical oontracts made
through the holes in the tape cause
the proper typo bars to be struck. So
fast is this automatic working that
the girl operators can receive and
send from 200 to 400 messages In
nine hours with one machine, The
machines work duplex, two messages
being sent at the same time.—-Popu
lar Mechanics.
A Cow Boy Breakfast.
T. B. Sweet, a Topeka capitalist,
stopped at Abileind in the early days
at the hest hotel in the city. He
asked for his breakfast. The waiters
took no special notice of his appear¬
ance, or at least did mot guess that
his appetite was different from the
average patron’s.
“Give me some eggs,” said Mr.
Swe'et, and waited.
In a little while the waitress came
back. In a howl she had a full doz
cn eggs, all hard boiled.
Sweet gasped and ate What he
could, protesting that she had brought
him too many, and that he didn’t just
know hnv, hard boiled eggs would
strike him for his first meal of the
day.
“Why,, that’s a regular cowboy’s
breakfast,” responded the waitress.—
