SCIENTIFIC.

a Nelo oil light was shown in public
near London recently. 1t Is stated
that the principal feature OF this new
light Is the mode of evaporizing the
oil and preventing its escape In the
form of spray. or, IN short, the method
of obtaining complete combustion.
Creosote oil is ordinarily used, and
after a small quantity OF spirit as
been poured on the surface of the oil
contained in the well Of the lamp, a
light is applied. and the radiating
covers put on. Compressed air is then
turned on, which, passing by means of a
small jet through the centre Of the
flame aud over the surface of the oil in
the we'll, forms high temperature and
also produces an induced current, which
raises the gas of the heated oil, and at
the same time draws in the necessary
supply of air to complete perfect COM
bustion and produce a powerful light.
The we'll of the lamp is connected with
tank or reservoir, lnsurlng constant
supply of oil. The flame forced up
from the lamp emits no smoke, and the
light, though naked. does not dazzle
the eyes. The light is chiefly intended
for industrial work on large scale,
such as in connection with railways,
docks and buildings, when the illumi-
nation of large spaces in the open ar
or under cover is required. Either
common creosote oil, crude petroleum,
or any other heavy hydrocarbons may
be used.

There has lately been invented new
system of synchronism which, it is
claimed, will make it cheaper to tele-
graph messages than to mail them. DR..
j. Harris Rogers, of Washington, d.
g., is the inventor. and he claims that
the world Will be almost revolutioniZed
by his discovery. The new system,
Mr.. Rogers says, reduces the English
alphabet to ten elementary characters.
The messages are prepared by means OF
a machine resembling typewriter and
manipulated In the same manner.
With the use of ten keys, one for each
character, any desirable message Can
be written. A test Of the new appara-
tus was held In New York few days
ago, and message of seventy-six words
sent over in twenty-five seconds and
printed on tape in plain Roman -aIa =
tiers. The inventor says that he can
by this system make one wire do the
work that ten do now by the system in
vogue.

PICKLED CABBAGE.-This. either
red or white, is cut into thin slices, and
sprinkled with common salt stepped in
strong brine, and allowed to lie for one
or two days. 1t is then drained for ten
or twelve hours and put into jars. Pre-
pare the splced vinegar as follows: four
pints of strong vinegar. two and half
ounces of salt. onA half ounce Of
bruised black pepper, two and half
ounces of bruised ginger, one quarter
ounce of shred mace Strain, and when
cold, add it to strong distilled vinegar.
Pour this over the cabbage. Another
plan Is to steep the sliced cabbage in
alum water for ten or twelve hours,
and, after draining and drying 1t, to
pour the vinegar on 1t as before. This
process causes the cabbage to eat very
fresh and crisp, but it takes longer to
mature.
