Pasteur's Water Filter.

The porcelain filter exhibited at the
London international health exhibition
last year is an apparatus devised by the
laboratory directors of the celebrated Pas
teur, and has the merits of great simple
ity and of furnishing water absolutely
free from any possibility of organic i'm
purity Briefly, it consists of one
or more porcelain cylinders, set in
metal tubes two inches in diameter and
twelve inches long, the whole inclosed in
a metallic case, which is attached to the
hydrant The water enters the space be-
tween the porcelain and metal tubes, and,
percolating through the former, drains
into an outlet pipe a water so pure as to
be used by Pasteur in his experiments

eucKwHEAT CAKES IN SUMNER.
The Grain Is First Polished, Then shucI sd
and then Ground Into Flour.

and then Ground Into Flour.
New York SUM-
While a downtown -four merchan.
watched an employe load truck with buck
wheat flour, the other day, he said: "You
would hardly expect to see such a Iaroe sal j,
of buekwheat as that at this time of the
year, would youa The fact is the use OF
buckwheat is increasing. The restaurant
here serve buckwheat cakes the year around.
though it strikes countryman as "a theI
odd to see buckwheats in warm weather.
The increased use Of this -four is due to the
great improvements in its manufacture
within the last three or four years.
when L was boy the straw with the
grain in the head was piled on the barn
floor and pounded with a fail. The straw
was then forked off and the grain swept into
piles. When the wind was blowing brisklv
the grain was thrown into the air with
shoYels, SO that the chaf could be blown
away, and then the grain was ground be-
tween the old-fashioned milestones. Tie
bran was separated from the meal by sift
ing with a wire bottomed sieve The first
Improvement was made when a silk boiling
reel was substituted for a wire-cloth sieve
"After great many years an old York
state miller concluded that the meal would
have less shuck or bran in it if the shUck
could be removed from the berry before it
was ground. To do that he run the grain
through series of corrugated rollers which
simply cracked open the shuck and allow
the kernel to drop out. The broken shucls
and kernels were separated by screens, and
thereafter buckwheat -four was about as
white as any other. The demand for it in
creased rapidly, but it was not quite perfect.
because the fine fuzz and dirt adhering to
the outside of the berry fell through the
screen with the kernels after the shuck had
been broken open by the rollers of the
shucker
"To get rid of this it was necessary to pol
ish each berry Of the grain separately be-
fore it was shucked. The machine for do
ing this has just been put on the market. 1t
consists of a cast-iron cylinder, say three
feet long and one foot in diameter, which
revolves within jacket made of steel wire
cloth The cylinder is covered with square
knobs half inch large, which project to
within fraction of an inch of the jacket
The cylinder is set whirling at the rate of
$50 revolutions a minute, and the grain,
after passing over a screen to get the straw
out, falls down between the jacket and the
cylinder. There it goes around and around,
knocking against the knobs and the jacket,
an upward current of air carrying off the
dust, until it falls out below as clean as a
hounds tooth. Then it slides over a mag
netized plate to remove any trace of metal
before going into the shucker. That makes
what we call perfect buckwheat -four"

Those Red TOP Boots.


Do you remember thenl-the first pair you
wore2 You can close your eyes and see
them agaiu-stif and black and heavy
soled. And what points Of beauty in your
eyes were those red tops and bright copper
toesl The memory Of them brings you back
to that period in your life, where infancy
passed into boyhood, and where dreams
came to you of being big man. They
marked the beginning Of your independ-
ence, OF your strength, of your recognition
as one of earth's creatures
Better far, they brought surcease of ridi-
cule, so CALLING to boys pride, for they
came with pants and short hair in place of
dresses and curls. How often have you gone
sobbing to your mother, your heart full of
grief and m modification, because a bigger
boy had pulled your hair, and called you
girl? The changes came all at once. Mother
made the pants and one evening she
brought home the red top boots Then she
put the scissors into your soft curls, cut
them off, kissed them and put them away.
She was sorry to see the baby become a
boy; but how your soul swelledI How you
longed for the morning that you might
wear theml How joyfully you cried out to
little Billy Brown, across the street, that
you had "pants and boots" And Billy
probably answered sullenly: II don't care, ]"
while all the time he was filled with envy.
Dear little boots! We revere your mem
ory You are to the boy what che sweet
heart is to the youth; what the bride is to
the man.
NJ Faye, a French astronomer, main
iains that the earth is older than the sun.
All of the pl2nets from Mercury to Nep-
tune were formed first. The sun was q
nebular mass far outside their orbits Sub
Sequently it passed over to the planetary
system, and collected there into the grand
luminary which we know. Uranus and
Neptune were then evolved from the scat
tering fragments, having satellites with
retrograde motion In the pre- sent period
life may have existed first in the northern
regions, as the fauna and flora found
there indicate. Then there were arctic
winters, the location of the nebulous
mass being such as to radiate most heat
upon the poles and that part of the earth's
surface so sadly neglected in orr present
caloriic arrangement
