Testing LubricdtiHg oils for Acids
That a small quantity OF fatty acid In
oil renders IL unfit for lubricating pur-
poses Is too well known to need repeat
Ing, but how 10 ascertain its presence
before irreparable injury has been done
Is a more difficult problem. DR.. VIE.
derhOld proposes the following simple
method Of testing for acids, namely, its
action upon sub-oxide OF copper, or red
oxide. If the red oxide Is not at hand,
the copper scale or ash OF the copper
smith may be employed, as 1t contains
this sub-Oxide. Either OF these sub
stances is placed in white glass vessel,
and covered with the oil TO be treated.
IL the latter contains a trace Of acid, or
any resinous acid from rOsin oil, with
which Ii may have been adulterated,
the oil soon turns green, and that too
nearest the copper scales. A gentle
heat hastens the reaction, which, in the
cold, requires from Is 10 80 minutes.
The test is extremely delicate, and can
not result In any doubt or error TO those
who use it for the first time. The
author states that IL is superior in ac-
curracy, reliability, and simplicity, to
any method previously known, SO that
an oil which is not turned green by the
copper scale can unhesitatingly be pre-
nounced absolutely free from acid. If
there be but little acid present the green
color is fainter, by more ac.d, lntenser,
and If rosin has been added it is blush.
The chemical reaction is this: The free
vegetable and fatty acids separated the
sub-oxide into oxide and metallic
copper; the former then combines with
the acids to form greenish blue salts,
that dissolve more or less in the oil and
impart their color to 1t. The oxide of
copper does not answer as well as the
sub-Oxide.

MATS and rugs for carriages, doors,
etc., are now made of felt by the follow
ing process: A piece of felt of suitable
thickness is cut in strips from three
eighths to fve-eighths Of an inch In
width, and as long as the mat Is to be
wide. These are laid side by side on
edge, and holes are made through them,
and through these holes cords or fine
wires are passed, and the strips are then
drawn tightly together aud fastened In
place at each end Of the wires. This
gives a fabric as thick as the strips are
wide, and of a light, flexible and elastic
character. The strips may be In various
colors, and may be disposed in any de-
sirable pattern. These mats are said to
be strong and durable, and able TO re-
sist heat, cold, dust and severe usage.
The color keeps well, because in dyeing
the felt, before the strips are cut, a uni-
form color may be obtained, and when
finished the mats have a good face on
either side.

A NOVEL WAY or MAKING JELLY
CAKE.-Take the whites Of six eggs, one
cup OF white sugar, same Of flour, one
teaspoonful Of butter, ;wo tablespoon
fuls Of sweet milk, two teaspOOnfuls OF
cream OF tartar and one of soda. Bake
In a large oblong dripping pan, so the
cake will be very thin; meanwhile stir
another batch, making just the same,
with the exception of using the yolks
Instead of the whites; when both are
done, spread when warm with jelly, or
preserves Of any kind; put together,
bring the largest side ofthe cake toward
you and roll Immediately, or cut In
four or eight parts, put together alter
nately, putting jelly between each layer,
and frost lightly oyer the top. Another
method Is to make three pans, making
the third layer OF one-third red sand
sugar, proceeding the same as for the
other layers; in putting together let
the first layer be the yellow, made of
the yOlks, then the red, and lastly the
whites. Nicely frost the top, and you
have a beautiful as well as a delicious
party cake. They are very pretty made
into rolls.

So He THoUGHT.-A short time ago a
sedate-lOOking young mar Of five and
twenty walked into the Central Station
and said:

"Did, ehi" queried the captain.

"And what did you sayf"
"Why, didn't say nothing, but I've

WHAT KISSING REALLY Is.-He was
fresh from over the range, and had just
stepped In to get the latest news. He
listened attentively to Jim while re-

with his "solid grill" at a kissing fray,
when, with a sneer of derision, he
opened his mouth and said: "0hl talk
