NEW WONDERS.
an Invention that VIII RevoIutionize the
u Iron Industry.

An Invention that VIII Revolutionize the
d Iron Industry.
CHICAGO, July 30. A firm in this city
engaged in the manufacture of tin cans
and japanued ware has patented an inven'
ton which competent judges say will
revolutionize the iron and steel industry
of the world. Patents have been secured
in the leading countries of the world. 1t
is, in brief. a process by which molten
metal may be rolled into any desired
shape, thus saving ell intermediate pro-
ceeses.
STEEL RAILS REDUCED $40 A TON.
1t was invented originally to roll molten
solder into thin plates, but the process is
pronounced by experts 10 be equally appli-
cable to iron and steel in its various forms
of plates, structural iron and rails. 1t Is
believed that the cost of manufacturing
steel rails can be reduced to the extent OF
$40 per ton, and that tnin iron plates for
timing can be made much below cost OF
production of tin plates in Wales, thus
making a new industry in this country.
THE WONDERFUL PROCESS.
The molten metal is passed between
rollers, which is chilled as it passes by
rollers being kept cool by stream OF
water which passes through them. An
other advantage is that iron and steel so
rolled will be much more even and closer
in texture than that made by present
methods, beipg free from the air holes
which result from the intermediate pro-
cesses.

If You Drink You'Il Bloat.

Liquids make fat. There is no
doubt of this in my mind, though am
fully cognizant of the fact that good
many people will deny it. The char
acters of the liquids has good deal
to do with it, but the practice of
drinking invariably leads to unwieldy
bulk. In Spain where men drink lit
tie, fat man is unknown. In Paris,
where men content themselves with
slipping thimblesful of absinthe or
small cups of black coffee, the French
are thin to q remarkable degree. The
women, on the other hand drink great
quantities Of champagne, burgundy
and latterly beer, and they are as a re-
suit prone to stoutness. In England
men drink ale and beer, and they are
a thick-necked, pudgy and heavy race
as rule. / had observed all this
many times, and when / went to Ger
many, where / knew the consumption
OF beer was very great, had prepared
to find fat men in abundance. ] was not
disappointed. There would seem to
be absolutely no end of big, corpulent
and unwieldy men in Germany. While
in the army they are slim and splendid
looking warriors, but two months after
they leave the ranks they become
heavy, puffy and beefy to the last de-
gree. This is even so in the ranks
among the other soldiers, and the cav.
airy were men Of such extraordinary
weight that they always excited com
ment from strangers. -Philadelphi;

ELECTION BRIBERY.
The Part Played by Corrupt Men in Run
ming American Politics.

The Part Played by Corrupt Men in Run
ming American Politics.
1t is with a sense of profound humili-
ty, If not of outright shame, that one
speaks in foreign journal of bribery
as an important element in the contest
And yet that such an element played
great part in the canvass no one in the
United States pretends to deny. Every
body knows that the prevalence of
bribery, in one form or another, is an
evil that is growing, and is already
alarming. Each of the parties admits
its own guilt, simply declaring, in the
way of mitigation, that the other party
is at least as bad as itself. The only
crumb of comfort that one can gain in
the contemplation of this prod
igious evil is in the two-fold remem-
brance of the state of English politics
in this regard during the century
before the reform of the civil service,
and in the further fact that with re-
form of the service the general prev
alence of bribery in English elections
ceased to exist. The simple fact is
that the magnitude of the stake at is
ue is too much for human nature.
There were in the recent contest at
least one hundred thousand Office hold
ers who looked upon the election sim
ply as matter that was to determine
whether they were to be turned out OF
their positions or whether they were
to be retained, Their arguments were
like those of the official who said tc
George Ill: 81 have the most con,
elusive reasons for supporting your
Majesty's policy. In fact l have eleven
such reasons-a wife and ten chill
dren, CHARLES Kendall Adams, in

The Sick swallow---A Fable,

A swallow was very sick and sent
for the doctor. When the doctor
came he examined the patient thor
oughly, felt his pulse, looked wise,
and gave him prescription.
The swallow had no appetite, no
strength, no strength, no soaring ca
pacity. He could do nothing but lie
in his nest and watch the other swal-
lows as they were darting here and
there getting their food, building
their nests, and rearing their young.
This swallows parents were wiser
than their fellows, and having often
suffered the pangs Of hunger them
selves, determined that their darlings
should be raised above any such pos
sibility. So they stored up seeds and
insects and worms in a safe place, so
that when their children were grown
they would have no need to struggle
and tire themselves out to get food.
But they were delicate brood, and
all but the surviving sick swallow
had filled an early grave.
The doctor told his suffering patient
to get two swallows to come every
morning and exercise him. They
were to pull his legs with their bills,
to scratch his body with their claws,
TO punch his muscles gently with
their bills, and thus restore circula-
ton in his body. They were to assist
him where he might find fresh
worm without much eXertion. The
canned provisions had become stale
and tasteless, and lost much of theil
nourishing power. Privately he ad
vised the two ministering swallows
to let the patient do all he possibly
could for himself, and to charge al
they dared for their services, as il
would he the greatest mercy to thu
patient to get rid of so much canned
provision, and be obliged to scratch
and hunt for fresh. In this he Sc
them worthy example.
Under this regime the patient 60
better, and his liking for fresh pro
visions, together with the wise treat
ment and high charges of his physi
clan and nurses, brought him into
comfortable state of health.
