An ambitious young lawyer received
q pointed lesson from a countryman re-
Gently. The latter who was dealer in
milk, was injured by butchers cart
colhding with his wagon. His vehicle
was wrecked, his milk was spilled on
the street, and he Was carried in a
bruised condition to neighboring drug
store. The young disciple OF Black
stone, happening TO pass at the time of
the accident, did the good Samaritan
act for the farmer, and after healing
ointment had been poured on the
wounds, remarked as he was about to
depart: 1.-The butcher ought to pay for
this. Here's my name, am a lawyer
and shall be glad to do anything 1 can
for you." A day or two later the law
yer was delighted TO see the milkman
enter his Office. Warmly greeting him
and Offering him a comfortable chair,
the barrister expressed pleasure that he
had decided TO sue the man who had
injured him. What do you know
about the accident!" asked the milk
man. ''Oh, l know everything" en-
Enthusiastically replied the lawyer, and
then he proceeded TO state in detail all
the circumstances of the accident. 81
am voIy much obliged to you," said the
farmer; Mr.. b. will subpoena you as
witness for the prosecution. Good
morning" As shouts Of laughter
came from his partners room, the bril-
Liant young lawyer grabbed his hat and
was not seen asain Tor nearly week.

SCIENTIFIC.

Professor Frederic Sie1nens has hit up
on a device to get more light out o. gas
than is ordinarily obtained from bur-
ners, having found means by which
the air which mingles with the gas at
the time of combustion is heated by con.
tact with porcelain conductors at q
white heat, while at the same time the
flicker caused by imperfect combustion
at the edges of the flame is done-away
with by causing the flame to double up
on itself in such a manner that combus-
ton is complete and the flame perfect
ly steady. If the flame Of an argand
gas burner, after reaching nearly to its
natural height, were turned inward,
and drawn by suction down through the
tube of the burner, it would bllow
about the same course as the fams In a
Siemens burner. The vacuum which
draws the flame down is caused by the
rush OF the heated air which goes to
feed the flame. Siemens burners, now
in use, give twice the light that the
same amount of gas burned in an ordl-
nary burner of the best construction
would give. So far no burners OF this
pattern have been made of less power
than five hundred candles. In these
burners the flame is so large and hot
that the porcelain is heated to degree
not possible IN a small burner for do
mestic use.

The Scientific American says that
non-conductor of electricity has yet to
be found, for all substances hitherto
discovered are conductors to the force
under certain known conditions, but
those which offer great resistance to
it serve the puIpose of non-conductors
In practice, although they may be all
classed as good or bad conductors. The
best conductor known at present Is sil-
yer, the worst is solid paraffine.
