Mr.. Thomas A. Edison keeps
constantly at work, and now and
then he makes a new invention.
His latest is an electric psocess for
separating iron ore from the earth
and rock, and it is claimed that it
will reyolutionize iron ore mining.
The present method of separating
the ore from its surroundings is
very expensive and tedious. Mr.
Edison is now in Pennsylvania with
party of capitalists to whom he
proposes to demonstrate the practi-
cal utility of his invention.

A QUAINT EGYPTIAN BOOK.
APapyrus Ofthe PtOIemaic Period Presented
to Cornell University.

to Cornell University.
ITHACA, April l3-Andrew D. White, ex-
President Of Cornell University, has sent from
Cairo, as a present to the university library, a
papyrus found about two years ago in the
tomb of priest of the Ptolemaic period. In
his letter, which is dated March Is, he says of
this interesting document:
''It represents certain chapters of the Book
of the Dead is a beautifully executed, per-
fectly preserved and complete document in
every respect. The inscriptions are partly
hieroglyphic, partly hieratic, and in the midst
of them are very striking representations of a
recticus sort, the most remarkable being The
Last Judgment of the Soul Before Isis and
Osiris This embraces Osiris upon his throne,
the great balance before him, the weighing of
the dead priests heart in one scale against the
Image of Truth in the other, while about the
balance are grouped the weighing. the record
ing and the accusing gods, the four funeral
qenii and the AZ assessors"
Mr.. White also sends lao large photographs
illustrative of ancient and modern Egyptian
art and collection Of more recent works on
Egypt.

FINED FOR CHEATING HIMSELF.
The Punishment Accorded to an OvergsneE
Ous English Coal Dealer.


From the London Globe.i
"Do good by stealth and blush to find it
fame" may have been excellent advice when
Mr.. Pope wrote, but it would require reshaping
to bring it into harmony with modern require
ments. A Yorkshire coal dealer, who has been
doing good by stealth on quite an extensive
scale, now has cause to blush at finding himself
fined by a police magistrate.
This philanthropic trader owns weighing
machine which gives his customers 81 pounds
overweight on every hundredweight Some
time ago his attention was officially drawn to
the fact, and he received solid warning that if
he continued his sinful benevolence he would
be summoned. A weighing machine thatgives
overweight is as illegal as one that does the
other thing, the law demanding perfect ad-
justment of balance. This coally Samaritan re-
fused to believe, however, that his stealthy
benefactions were punishable, and so persisted
in adding the little bonus to every hundred
weight Of black diamonds that left his shop,
A fine of 1ve shillings and costs is the result
the bench expressing the opinion that it looked
O little hard TO punish man for cheating him
self to benefit his customers. 1t does look hard.

These remedies have won their great popular ity purely on their merits. .E B. K Taft, drug gist.

SPRINGS, CONN. NOVEMBER

Forest and Stream A young friend of mine, who has for several years each sum- mer gone with his father on camping trip on the south shore of Lake Superior, tells me of a novel expedient they often employed for preserving their venison in warm weather. In that country some of the streams are banked by long rows of sand hills, whose composition is so loose that they shift about continually under a wind of any force. In the winter time the high winds fen blow the sand over great snow banks which lie upon the north side of the sand dunes, covering up the snow to depth of several feet. The snow is thus kept unmelted, and even in the mid de of summer one can dig through the sand to if and find the best imaginable sort of natural refrigerator. In this way, said my young friend, they buried their deer and trout, and found them entirely fresh 80 long as they cared to leave them. This is certainly a new instance of nature's bountlfulness with the sportsman
