New Method OF Storing Steam.

A new method of storing steam to be
utilized and controlled for motive power
of any description is especially adapt
ed for propeling street-cars, either sur.
face or elevated. 1t is asserted that
good speed can be attained without the
usual noise, smoke, cinders and escape
of steam. Very little fire Is required,
as the exhausted steam is saved and
ooldensed in the boiler, using the same
water continually. Any danger Of ex-
plosion Is averted by the boiler not be-
coming heated by water passing
through the tubes, az by the ordinary
method. The steam reservoir is capa.
bic of resisting a pressure of 1000
pounds to the square inch, but will
hardly YER carry more than 200 to 800
pounds of steam. From this simple
process are derived the following valu-
able features OF the new motor: Abb
solute safety, great economy in run
ming expenses and such simplicity Of
construction and handling that it can
be run By any man Of common, ordi.
nary sense. lts safety is due, not to
he skill Of the driver, but TO the prin- |
on which it is built.--SL Louis
Globe Democrat.

W wants, and she will have besides a sur

W. X. VANDERBILT's steam-yacht Alva,

AN ARTISTS ADVENTURE.
How He Came Near Running One {
tho Worlds Greatest PAINTINGS.

the WORLDS Greatest Paintings.
The old and curiously paradoxicaI
advice: "Be bold, be bold, be not toe
bold" is sorely needed at some crisis OF
our lives. Irving Montagu, an Eng.
lish war artist, says that he spent a
great deal of time during his early
training at Marlborough house. where
he covered innumerable canvases with
ambitious copies OF great pictures.
On n occasion several art students
were strolling with me about the de.
serted passages of the house, when /,
being of an impulsive turn Of mind,
penetrated what seemed to me a dark,
capacious cupboard. The others in.
stantly shut the door. which fastened
with a spring, and ran off to continue
their work in the galleries. Thus i'm.
prisoned, remained patient enough at
first, but when a half-hour had elapsed
the situation began to pail on me, and

pushing against the walls round about
me. Greatly to my relief the back
part Of my prison-house proved rs flex.
iblo as if the paper of the adjoining
room was only strained across it on
canvas.
An idea struck me; nothing could be
easier than to take my penknife and
cut a slit sufficiently long for me to
step through into tho next apartment.

Billy is young naturalist as we'll a

Accordingly he spared the life of til,

Gradually the eel took a liking to tn,
boy.
1t would wind arom the lads arm
and rub its head gently over his sleeve
Then it got SO that it would como on
of the box and coil itself at Bllly's fec
and go to sleep. 1t made no effort t
escape.
Then it learned to follow the boz
around. First it followed him aroun,
the room. Then it glided upstairs afte
him and early in the spring to k f
sleeping on the pillow beside him.
Billy became as fond of the eel rs tn,

the eel knew its name. 1t will awakel

So thoroughly iedTcatcd has it becom

boy.
The rapidity with which it can move
is remarkable. 1t keeps right along'id
of Billy when he walks at quick pace
But the funniest thing the eel does is t
go fishing with Billy. 1t will lie on

watch the lad haul in any number o

1t never makes any attempt to get int
the river. 1t il, moreover, a cannibalis

The ncighbors go daily to the Bensol

now TO MAKE BIG BUBBLES.


Next to white CASTLE, the notified
CASTLE gives the best results. The soap
being obtained, a friendly druggist
must carefully weigh out sixty grains
for exactncss in proportions is necdtuD
for each ounce of water. That is, one
irachm according to the Apothecary's
Weight Of the cd arithmetics). aud
when the weighing is done and the
obliging druggist thanked for kindness,
the rest is plain sailing. A bottle with
a sound cork is the next requirement.
1t must be large enough TO hold three or
four times the quantity of solution you
wish to make Do not prepare too
much at one time; two ounces of soap
solution will be good quantity, and
for this a six or eight ounce bottle will
be about the right thing. The bottle
must be well cleaned and well rinsed
out with soft water-which, by the
way, should be used for all the opera
tons. All being ready. the soa? is cut
into fragments small enough to enter the
bottle. Measure an ounce of water for
each drachm of soap; this can be done
with teaspoon, eight spoonfuls making
an ounce. Having poured the water
aud put the soap into the bottle, we
have now to await perfect solution,
which will happen in the course Of two
or three hours, if the bottle be put in a
moderately warm place. Then add
glyCerine to the soap solution, the guam
tity varying with our ambition. have
found that one huff the volume of the
solution gives excellent results; that
is to say, to each ounce of water add
one half ounce of glyccrine, measuring
the quantities instead of weighing them,
in both cases. The bottle is now to be
tightly corked and well shaken; then
set aside for two or three hours moro,
and well shaken again. These alternate
periods of rest and agitation should con-
tinue for a whole day. Finally, let the
bottle stand undisturbed and tightly
corked for twenty flour hours. Bubbles
of great size and beauty may be blown
with this solution. st. Nicholas.
