LUMINOUS PAINT.
A New Invention That VIII Do Away
 S Su5Cf2aI With Gas and oil.
English Railway News.

FM HafsA Engutn heilWhy NtWb. H. Fr - We understand that one of the car riages on the Great Western Railway has been painted with the late Prof. Balmain's luminous paint, and many scientific men and railway representa- tives have taken advantage of their in- vitation to take short trips on the Met ropolitan Railway in order to test the efficiency of the experiment.. It is grat- flying to have to announce that on all hands considerable satisfaction has been expressed at the result. A first-class carriage was chosen for the experiments, and in the daylight its appearance IS veiy little. if any at all, different to or dinary paint, but during the time the carriage is exposed to the light the paint is rapidly absorbing the daylight, only to give forth the same the moment the carriage IS travelling in the dark. At first the light emitted is only slight, not that the paint IS any different Tn its lliu- minating powers, but the pupils of the accustomed to the light, for, as the journey proceeds, the carriage appears to be completely lighted up, so much so that the passengers are enabled easily to recognize the features of their fellow | clearly discernible. This light lasts not for short time, but continues for period of few hours, when the carriage can be again exposed to the daylight and the same process is gone through. The paint, when once applied, will, it appears, last as long as ordinary paint. | It would be rash to say that the illumi- mated paint will ever supersede gas or oil on our railways, but we may fairly | hope that it will effect very great sav- ing in those items. For trains running long journeys, with tunnels occasionally intervening, the paint will be very val uable inasmuch as the oil and gasca be entirely abandoned, and the great waste at present experienced avoided. Of course it will suggest itself to the reader that the "daylighting" of railway car
 riages is only one of the many uses to
 which this novel invention can be ap-
 piled. It might, for instance, be profta' ply employed for Illuminating the sa
 looms and cabins of ships and steamers
 Already it has been employed for. tho
 purpose of life-buoys, rendering then
 visible at night when thrown over into
 the sea for long distance, while nov
 ing buoys have also been treated the
 same way.

What a Seat in Parliament Costs. i
Chicago Tribune

The man must be very eager for seat in the House of Parliament who is will ing to stand for the County seat of Ork- ney and Shetland. The number of electors is not large, as there are only about 500 of them all told, and in an election hardly more than two-thirds of these can be depended on to vote; but to secure the $50 to 700 ballots needed to elect the candidate has to put himself to considerable amount of expense and trouble. The main outlay IS in provid- ing floating polls. For some reason the Government does not divide the district up into voting precincts, although there are seventy odd miles of stormy sea be- tween the two main groups of Islands. As the electors are thus isolated, and have in many cases no means of reach ing the polls, the candidates are put to the expense of bringing the polls to them. Steamers are chartered at New castle-on-tne-Tyne which cruise among the various islands, and offer, in one way or another, the chances for each privileged islandes to vote with but lit tie trouble or expense to himself. This is more than can be said ofthe successful candidate whois usually out of pocket not less than $40000 before the canvass and the election are over, while his competitors outlay cannot fall far short of the same sum. mm fslf
 WHENEVER the people of any locality make up their minds to have Fourth of July celebration, they always give out, with flourish of trumpets, that the celebration is to be an "old- fashioned one" When one comes to think of it, an old-fashioned celebration could not have been much of an attraction, for it generally consisted of firing an anvil, drinking hard cider and eating ginger l bread.-Ronae Se~tpel.

HOW TO IRRIeATE,

The semi-Tropic California; asks: "How shall we irrigate?" There are var ious ways in which this can be done. Some walk up to the bar and take theirs straight, others take it home in a jug and irrigate Ion the sly" The sub ject is one concerning which great minds difer.--Kansas City Times.
