lnlproyeu Diamonds.

Many persons have been puzzled to
understand why the diamonds worn in ear
rings by ladies nowadays maintain such a
ceaseless quivering motion. 1t makes no
difference that the head OF the wearer is in
perfect repose, and that sheis even speech
less, and therefore exerting no muscle of
face or feature, the ceaseless twinkle of
the diamond goes on, enhancing greatly
the beauty of the gem. The secret is in
the setting Of the diamond and the method
is patent device. The patentee is reap
ing royalty of $50 apiece from every
manufacturing jeweler to whom he sells
the privilege of using it. The stone is set
in the usual manner, except that the band
like the handle of a diminutive basket is
attached to the framework. On the other
side of the band is q cup like cavity. On
the lower part of the hoop is projecting
pin pointed with rhodium, metal which
never wears out-somewhat like the iridium
with which gold pens are tipped. Now,
when the diamonds are put in position on
the hoop the rhodium point projects into
the cup. The result is what scientists
would call condition of unstable equilib-
rum. Like the pea blown with the pipe
by school boy the diamond is given no
rest, with the difference that no effort is
required to keep it dancing. The metal
point never wears out.-S. Louis Spec

STORAGE BATTERIES.

A street railway in Brussels which
has been experimenting with the stor-
age battery reports that the deteriora-
ton OF the batteries has been as much
as seven cents car-mile; and at that
price they cost more than horses. The
company supplying the batteries re-
plies that, since they delivered the
cells, they have never been consulted
IN any way, and that their directions
have not been complied with. At the
same time, the cost of the batteries in
BRUSSELS is more encouraging than 9TH
erwise; for, at seven cents a car-mile for
depreciation, the cost will be only
slightly greater than that of horses, and
the increased speed and comfort will
more than compensate for this. The
total cost for horses may be roughly
estimated at ten cents a car-mile for an
ordinary car in this country. At seven
cents for depreciation, the cost OF bat
terles Will be something under eleven
cents car-mile. With the advantage
electricity offers, even this should
throw the balance in It's favor; and the
calculation is on the most unfavorable
data obtainable.

Concerning Opium Culture.

In few states the farmers have ex-
perimented little with the white
poppy, but wehave not regarded opium
as ever likely to cut much of figure
among our prodIct. Mr. Pratt, the
United States consul at Teheran, who
mas been studying opium culture in
Persia, where a very fine article is pro-
auced: says he believes large regions
IN California and the southern states
are we'll adapted to the Utilization Of
the white poppy, and, inview of the
superior quality of Persian opium, he
details the methods of cultivation in
vogue there as a guide for our poppy
ralsers. Though the abuse of opium
has made it, in the opinion of many, a
dlsreputable drug, it serves a large
number of useful purposes. and if we
could raise what we require for legiti-
mate uses opium culture would be a
considerable addition to our wealth
producing resources.-Nesv York SIN
