SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

The people of Kansas, under the
forestry laws of that State, have planted
$4,000 acres in trees. The cotton wood
is the most abundant, as it grows the
most rapidly. About 5000 have been
planted in black walnut, and will makea
handsome return in eight or nine years.
The Scientific Anierican pictures and
describes an instrument called the gas
troscope, by which it is possible to IL
illuminate the interior of the stomach,
aud see the condition of its lining mem
brane. 1t is an ingenious, delicate, and
probably very costly instrument, and is
more interesting as showing what can
be done than what is likely to be done
frequently.
Sixteen American inventions of
worldwide adoption are the cotton gin,
the planting machine, the telegraph, the
mower and reaper, the rotary printing
press, steam navigation, the hot air en-
CINE, the sewing machine, the India
rubber industry, the machine manufac-
t,Te of horse-shoes, the sand blast for
carving, the gauge lathe, the grain ele-
vator, artificial ice making on large
scale, the electric magnet, and the tele-
phone.
Another car-brake has been invent
ed, designed for braking all the cars of
a train at the same time by single OPP
Grafton, this object being accomplished
by the application of the device to a
common form of brake at present in use,
which brakes cars Independently of the
other. The mechanisms consists in
number of eXtensible connecting rods
attached to each car, which themselves
actuate pulleys upon each car and wind
up chains which govern the brakes. BY
this form of construction, the ordinary
form of brake attachment is not inter-
fered with, so that either can be applied
at will. The arrangement is such that
it can be operated by the engineer or a
man in the rear car, and, by drawing
upon the rods on different sides, both
can operate it at once.
The impression that the Northeast
ern coast of the American continent is
slowly rising-the estimate of the rate
of emergence in progress being over a
foot, and perhaps as much as three feet
in century-has recently been contro-
verted by eminent scientific authorities,
among these being DR.. Mitchell of the
Coast Survey, who states that the salt
marshes are still, as they were in the
time of the early explorers, at ordinary
high water level, and that the rocks on
our coast, long notorious as dangerous
to navigation, have not risen since they
were discovered. Ancient maps and
documents are cited, and the conditions
of the various rocks are considered in
detail, with the result just named. But
eastward of longitude GA deg. Is min.
and especially in Newfoundland, grea
changes present themselves in the com
parison of charts, the depth appearing
: to be at some points less and at othel
points greater now than formerly.

Babies are not an article of COM
merce, but they are nevertheless related
to dollars and cents, and strange it is
that this is not more understood. One
family there was that did not lose sight
of it. They caused to be inscribed on
the tombstone of their dear departed the
following touching and instructive lines:
Our little Johnny's gone to praise,
| He neither cries nor hollers,
He lived but five and thirty days,
And cost us forty dollars.
The advantages of the American
baggage system in tracing and recover
ing lost packages was strikingly illus.
trated on Tuesday evening. A deciple
of Izaak Walton was fishing off the
Howard-street footbridge for tomcod,
with baggage check attached to his
line by way of sinker, when, feeling a
tug at his hook, he pulled up and found
valise securely fastened to his line.
This extraordinary luck has induced a
number of down-towners to go fishing
for the key. --New London Day.

Suffering From Swallowing a Snake.

While out in the fields last summer
Mrs. David Schnauffer, of Sandlake,
took drink of water from a brook flow
ing through a meadow back of the vii
LACE, and when she returned home she
declared that she had swallowed q snake.
Her family used every endeavor to con-
vince her that she was mistaken, and
for time, as no serious results were
experienced, Mrs. Schnauffer admitted
that perhaps she did not swallow the
reptile. Several weeks ago, however,
she began to feel peculiar sensation in
her stomach, and was soon taken quite
i'll. She then renewed the assertion that
there was snake in her stomach, and
to the doctors who have since attended
her she described the terrible sufferings
which she has undergone. The physi-
clans are now satisfied that the lady was
right when she claimed that she swal-
lowed the reptile, and all the known
remedies have been resorted to to relieve
her of the monster which has taken up
its abode in her stomach. The move
ments of the snake can be felt, and Mrs.
Schnauffer declares that it is growing
larger. The physicians intend to re-
move her to the Albany Hospital, where
the attempt to remove the reptile will
be made Troy IN. y } IS1eGTdDi.

"May be So"

After looking over the battlefield of
Charlottesville | went back to the
brick-house for dinner. During my alb
sence little red-headed man had ar
rived, and he was introduced by the
woman as her brother-in-law. AS soon
rs came in he began on me:
"Vhas you under Sheneral Shackson
in dis fght?"
"No."
81 tell you dot vhas an awful fight,
nv frendt. Blood poured out shust
like it vhas raining. May be you
vhas under Sheneral Lee, up der blank

"No, wasn't"
"Not under LeeP But dot Sheneral
Lee vhas an awful fighter. May be you
vhas nit Early, up at fredericksburg"
"No."
"Sop Well, dot Early he vhas a
shplendid sheneral, und he like to fight

"No."
"Not NIT Hooker down here! Den
you vhas nit Sedgwick, up der roadP"
"No."
"vhell, by golly! Not NIT Shackson
nor Lee-not NIT Hooker nor Sedg-
wickl Vhell! Well! Dot beats me all
oafer!"
Both of us fell to and began eating,
and nothing further was said until the
meal was finished and we had gone out
to look at some old cannon wheels in
the yard. Then my friend put his hand
on my shoulder, lowered his voice, and
said:
"My frendt, if you vhas not met Lee
nor Shackson nor Hooker in dis fight
may be you und me vhas in der same
placer"
"May be so. Where were yOu?"
