from side to side, shook his head and
winked his glazed eyes. The doctors per-
severed, and the attack on the body OF
Skaggs divided the attention of the pub
lie with the attack on Paris. But after
forty-eight hours of bombardment Skaggs
threw up the sponge and refused to graf
ify the doctors any further. And so they
now report that he is dead. 1t is COM
mendable to attempt these experiments,
for if no positive benefit arises to the sub
ject, we, at least, gain enough informa-
ton to set us wondering what subtle Vi
tally was it in the system of Skaggs that
made his body respond to the touch of
the electric wire? This is as stunning an
inquiry as is that other which has per-
picked the human mind for years as to
the mysterious sympathy which enables a
man to move tables and chairs without
touching them. We are drifting on in
knowledge and perhaps, if we do not, the
generation that comes after us will surely
explain what this undiscovered force in
nature is.

The Chicago Republican, in commenting
on the late disastrous fire in that city,
says that the confagration settled the
verdict of popular opinion against the
further construction of Mensard roofs
They are generally filed with combustible
matter, catch fire easily, burn readily, and
falling in bury the stories below it in such
a sea of fire that it is impossible to extin-
guish it. Besides, they are usually so high
that they are beyond the reach Of the
engines. For these manifold reasons the
Chicago paper ~discourages any further
use of the Mansard roof.
As this roof has been put upon several
houses in this city, and as it may be still
further adopted on other buildings, We do
not think it advisable to allow these sugges-
lions to pass without submitting them to
our own people. The Mansard roof can
not be said to be very ornamental, and as
it certainly costs more than the ordinary
gable roof, is it not better to stick to
what is safe and cheap rather than adopt
this fashion, which is thus reported to be
unsafe, and which is surely more expen-
siye?

The progress of rascality keeps up with
the advance of knowledge. To-day science
is astonished at the discovery of a COM
pound which completely and entirely ex-
tracts the written signs from paper and
allows a plain unblemished surface for
whatever the public may desire to write
In place of what has been destroyed. In
San Francisco q check for SIG, 900 was
presented and paid at bank, but on exami-
nation, it was discovered that the original
draft was only for $4,000. The figures had
been extracted without injury to the pa
per, and the larger sum substituted there
for. A microscopic test failed to dis
cover any alteration in the paper. The
forgers being arrested, their rooms were
searched and a small bottle was found
containing a new combination, which,
being analysed, was discovered to contain
one part of chloride Of potass and three
parts Of sesqui carbonate of soda. An
application q this combination in open
court proved that it instantly removed ink
from paper, leaving only q slight stain,
which could be removed by h~ydrochloric
acid. The white of an egg resized the
paper.
As a matter of course, this leaves US all
at the mercy of the forgers, unless some
thing new is invented which will so effect
ually set writing in the paper on which it
is written that the new compound will be
powerless to remove it. And, as a matter
of course, this will be done, for science is
all-powerful.
