HOW GAS WAS FIRST USED.

Great was The amaZement OF all
England when at the close vi the las t
century William Murdoch discovered
the use OF combhstlble air or gas. So
little was the invention understood and
believed in by those who had not seen
it in use that even great and wise men
laughed OF the idea. elbow could there
be light without a wickW said member
Of Parliament when the subject was
brought before the House. Even Sir
Humphrey Davy ridiculed the idea OF
lighting towns by gas, and asked one oil
the proprietors if they meant to take
the dome OF ST. Paups for gas meter.
Sir Waiter Scott, too, made himself
merry over the idea OF illuminating
London by smoke, though he WAS glad
enough, not so long alter, to make his
own house at Abbottstord light and
cheerful on winter nights by the use o.
that very smoke. When the House oil

Commons Was lighted by gas, the archi-
tect imagined tnat the gas ran on fire
through the pipes, and he, therefore, in:
sisted on their being placed several
inches from the wall, for fear of the
building taking fire; and members
might be observed carefully touching
the pipes with their gloyed hands and
wondering they did not feel warm.
The first shop lighted in London bythe
new method was Mr.. Ackerman's in the
strand, in 1910, and one Larry OF rank
was SO delighted with the brilliancy OF
the gas lamp on the counter that she
asked to be allowed to take it home in
her carriage. Mr.. Murdoch was, how
ever, too busy with other pursuits to
continue to study the use OF gas, and
though he was undoubtedly the fret to
apply 1t to practical purposes, many

A HORSES KNOWLEDGE OF TINE.

A Chicago physician, who thinks
animals Will be better treated If their
Intelligence Is appreciated, says:
Bayard Taylor's interesting narrations
reminded me Of my old and faithful
morse Charley, now dead, whom l had
driven in my daily rounds for nearly
ten years. Like nearly all physicians
horses, he had learned to stand at the
door of patient without being hitched.
But be would not remain beyond par

whether he associated the hour with his
feed or not, certain it was that If left
him unhitched at either of these hours
as soon as he heard the deep clang OF
the old courthouse bell he would begin
to shake his head, stamp with his feet,
and it some one did not appear and
either hitch him or get in and drive off,
he would start off alone in about five
minutes after the bell ceased to ring.
This habit l soon learned, and l nave
often convinced incredulous persons
of the Intelligence of the horse by ask
ing them TO waIch his motions when the
bell sounded!
He would start off very slowly, shak-
ing his head and looking back as If say
ing, II can't wait much longer" Ii he
heard the door OF gate open, even il he
was block away, he would stop and
look back to see II | was coming to him.
L never knew him torun TO the stable,
but he would go from my office on Wash

squares away, through the crowded
streets, without any collision OR dam

INTERVIEW WITH AN ORIENTAL DEsPOT.

The United States Minis ter, Mr.. Rob-
ert5, was.the bearer OF some very costly
gifts from our government to his Siam
ese majesty, and naturally handed
them all over at his first audience with
the king. The next time ne called he
was stopped by the ushers in the ante.
chamber, and politely requested to hand
in his presents before entering the
audience-hall. Mr.. Roberts assured
them that all had been delivered the
first day, and that he had nothing more
to offer. But tremonstrance was utterly
in vain; the ushers declaring that with
out a present OF some some sort they
durst not permit him to enter, as IL
would be doing violence to all the re-
qurement of courtly etiquette, and no
mortal could presume tO enter the au-
gust presence OF his serene majesty
without first laying an Offering at his
Ieet.
Wearied out by their persistence, and
annoyed at the awkward dilemma in
which he SO unexpectedly found him
self, the ambassador borrowed salVer,
and placed ON 1T, all in pile, hundr ed
silver dollars that his servant had in
hand, as ther checks nor bank-notes
were in vogue at the Siamese capital.
These were handed over as the pres
.ent" OF the day; Mr.. Roberts, object be-
ing quite as much to shame the rapacity
of the officials as to gain Tor himself ad-
mission TO the royal presence. But no
thought OF irony, or Of turning his majes-
ty's requisitions into burlesque, seemed
to enter the minds of these oDtuse ush-
ers, nor even OF the king himself, since
tue present of Spanish dollars was as
regularly reported, and as coolly assent
ed to, as any other could have been. Nor
did it seem to occur to this naughty, po-
itentate that the dignity of a powerful
and wealthy nation was at all CON-
promised by the acceptance, on the part
Of Its chief ruler, of present of money
when his own revenues were 30 far in
excess of all outlays that new stone
warehouses, OF vast dimensions, were
frequently being built for the purpose
of storing The treasures of silver aud
gold that are not counted, but weighed
in immense sacks, sealed, and 30 de-
posted.
Such an incident could not possibly
have occurred during the recent reign OF

nor yet, think. in the present, presld-
ed over by the enobler young son of the

MOON MADNESS.

The popular belief that the moons
rays Will cause madness in any person
VINO sleeps exposed to them has long
been telt to be absurd, and yet it has
appeared to have its source in un-
doubled facts. Some deleterious in-
fuence is experienced by those who
rashly court slumber In full moonshine,
and probably there is no superstition to
which the WeIl-to-do pay more attention.
Windows are often covered to keep the
moonbeamS from entering sleeping
rooms. A gentleman living in India
furnishes "Nature" with an explanation
Of this phenomenon which is at least
plausible. He says: "1t has often been
observed that when the moon Is isll or
near it's full time, there are rarely any
clouds about; and ii there be clouds be-
fore the full moon rises, they are soon
dissipated; and therefore a perfectly
clear sky, with bright full moon, is
frequently observed. A clear sky ad-
mits of rapid radiation of heat from the
surface OF the earth, and any person
exposed to such radiation is sure to be
chilled by rapid loss of heat. There is
reason to believe that, under the circum-
stances, paralysis OF one side OF the face
ls sometimes likely to occur from chill,
as one side of the face is more likely to
be exposed to rapid radiation, and con-
sequent loss of its heat. This chill is
more likely to occur when the sky Is per-
tectly clear. IhaYe often slept open in
India on clear summer night, when
there was no moon; and although the
first part of the night may have been
hot, yet toward tive or three O'Clock in
the morning the chill has been SO great

ache in my forehead, which 1 as often
have counteracted by wrapping a hand
kerchief round my head, and drawing
The blanket over my tace. AS the chill

night, and the clearesG nights are likely

The Holiday Trade.

On the principle that the early bird catches

i'm Holiday Goods are already arranging their
displays and getting ready tn make their at
fractions known To the public. Ii is well un-
derStOOd fact that the best customers are those
who make their holiday selections early. while
stocks are fun and fresh, and when they can
be properly waited on. Dealers who would
secure this desirable trade should. therefore,
I've prompt 10 give the widest possible publicity
to such Inducements as they propose To hold
ont To purchasers seeking bargains. We need
not add that the advertising columns of THE
STAR are the recognized medium for all com

dOned for reminding business men that the
loss of a days trade before the holidays can
never lie made up after they have gone by.
Those who commence earliest are consequently
least likely tn have to carry over a portion of
their stock of goods until next season, with
the risk of being out of style. ShOp-wOrn. and
ultimately sold below cost to prevent total
