The worlds inventors in search OF a new
motor have made and are making many ex-
peTiments with light, hoping to find in it the
power sought. A ship propelled by the rays
of the sun is one of EricSsOn's dreams, and
after he gets his torpedo boat of his hands he
means to devote his attention entirely to his
fSt idea. The new motor must be found
somewhere, IL not in light then in electricity.
Edison Is making experiments in this direc-
ton. Indeed it would be difficult to find a
Eeld in the realm of invention which he has
rot begun to explore. An Englishman has
recently invented q machine consisting of
four disks radiating from a central revolving
post. The disks are painted black on one side
md white on the other. When the machine
is placed under an exhausted receiver, to
avoid the friction Of the atmosphere, it imme.
diately revOlves, the black sides of the disks
absorbing and the white sides repeIling light.
Heat does not cause the revolution, as it takes
place equally well where the surrounding at
mosphere Is at a low as at a high temperature.
The machine will work through the influence
of ordinary daylight when placed in the shade
and increases In the r,pidity OF its revolution
wien exposed to the rays Of the sun or Of any
artificial light Curious toys suggesting the
capacities of some natural agent are the FORE
runners OF inventions Of great practical use

AYERS Pills have been known for
more than quarter of a century, and have
obtained a worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc-

stand or cvade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffied the best Of
human skill. While they produce power

safest and best physic for children. BY
their aperient action they grippe much less

give pain when the bowels are not in1amed
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel

being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
