Leather from Wood,

1t is said that one DR.. George
Tenius of Vienna has process for
the manufacture of artificial leather
from red beechwood. The best wood
for the purpose is taken from so to
60 O-year-old trees, cut in the spring,
which must be worked up immedi-
ately, bark peeled off, steamed,
treated with chemicals in kettle
under pressure, and exposed to sew
eral more operations which the in
ventor does not mention, as he
wants to have them patented. From
the prepared wood, strong and thin
pieces are made by means of press
ure. The inventor states that solid
sole-leather can be obtained, which
he claims is superior to the animal
leather in frmness and durability,
and can be worked up in the same
way as animal leather, nailed and
sewed.-The Tradesman.

Get the Light from the Left.

Americans are great readers and
hosts of them spend their evenings
at home engrossed in the work of
some favorite author, or in many
cases with periodicals of every de-
scription. Generally this occupa-
ton is pursued in recumbent po-
sition and without any regard to
lights or shadows, and the reader
is continually complaining of dull
pains in the head and loss of Wis
ion. This can be remedied in a
simple manner by holding the book
or magazine in such a position that
the light from the gas or lamps
will fall over the left shoulder, and
there will be no further complaint
of bad eyes or sick headaches by
readers. Applying the same rule
on wet, dark nights when crossing
the streets it will be found that hid
den pools of water will be revealed
and the pedestrians journey made
much more endurable and with less
provocation for swearing.-N.Y.Sun

Learning Trades.

A notable fact in connection with
a public manuel training school in
Philadelphia, as reported in a local
paper, is that of the boys now in
the training school and learning
the use of chisels and hammers and
lathes, fully three-fourths are the
sons of professional and business
men-many sons of doctors and
ministers and lawyers. OF the "
occupations recorded of parents of
boys now in the middle class. 81
are those of professional or busi-
ness men and % those of men en-
gagged in other pursuits, of whom
only IA are artisans. On the other
hand, it is stated that children Of
mechanics in that city are striving
to get into the ranks of the strug-
Cling and poorly paid professions"
Well, it wouldn't do for all to be
mechanics; and nine times out of
ten the working mans son becomes
the most successful lawyer, doctor
or clergyman. His self-reliance and
ambition generally overcomes all
all obstacles.-Scientific Press.

The Mystic Three.

There is much superstitious re-
gard for the number three in the
popular mind, and the third repeti-
ton of anything is generally looked
upon as a crisis, observes writer
in Chambers Journal. Thus, an
article may twice be lost and re-
covered, but the third time that it
is lost it is gone for good. Twice
a man may pass through some great
danger in safety, but the third time
he loses his life. If, however, the
mystic third can be successfully
passed, all is we'll. Three was called
by Pythagoras the perfect number,
and we frequently find its use SYM
bolical of Deity. Thus, we might
mention the trident of Neptune,
the three.forked lightning of Jove
and the three-headed dog of Pluto.
The idea of trinity is not confined
to Christianity, but occurs in sew
eral religions.
In mythology, also, we find three
Fates, three Furies and three Gra-
ces, and, coming nearer to our own
times, Shakespeare introduces his
three witches. In public-house
signs three seems to play an im-
portant part, for we frequently meet
with "Three Cups" 'Three Jolly
Sailors" "Three Bells" "Three
Tuns," Three Feathers" in fact that
number of almost anything of
which a fertile imagination can con-
ceive trio. In nursery rhymes
and tales this number is not un-
known, and if we look back to the
days of our childhood most of us
will call to mind the three wise men
of Gotham, who took a sea voyage
in a bowl, not to mention the three
blind mice that had their tails cut
off by the farmers wife. Perhaps
there is some occult power in the
number which governs the division
of novels into three volumes and
induces doctors to order their med
icine to be taken thrice daily. It
is said that some tribes of savages
cannot count beyond three; but,
they may have no words
to express higher numbers, perhaps
we should be scarcely justified in
assuming that they are incapable
Of appreciating the value Of the

Recently, by accident, the New
New York end of the Hudson River
tunnel was seriously flooded, and
all ordinary methods of stopping
the leaks proved unavailing. At last
Engineer Moy contrived a novel
means of stopping the holes. He
secured a number of water rats, tied
long pieces of oakum to their tails,
caught in the middle by . piece of
wire. The rats were then forced
into the caisson through the SIR
pumps. The rats, following the cur
rent of air, followed the leaks, and.
passing through the crevices, left the
oakum behind. This stopped the in-
gress of air sufficiently to enable the
pumping to proceed with success.

Doomed Too Much.

Wichita, Kan, is a fair sample
of the western towns which have
been "boomed" almost to death. A
commercial traveller just from that
place was talking the other day,
says the Cincinnati Times-Star, OF
the present situation in that city OF
phenomenal growth Of a few years
back. He said in a business way
it was duller than the dullest. 1t
was estimated that fully 1000 houses
were lacking occupants in the place.
The stagnation of business and
growth generally was partly owing
to the overgrowth a few years ago
consequent upon the remarkable
boom that beset the place and partly
to the sharp competition of newer
neighboring towns. As indicating
the extravagant notions of the early
boomers, the drummer mentioned
that syndicate purchased for $4O,-
600 farm of about one hundred
acres, all often miles from the center
of the city, with the purpose of
soon converting the fertile acres
into the site of an aristocratic and
high-priced suburb. One-half of
the stipulated price was paid at the
time of the transfer and the other
half recently became due. The syn
dicate offered the original owner
his land back instead of the remain
ing $4,000, and he promptly re-
jected the proposition. AS a means
of rapid transit to and from the
syndicate's purchase dummy en-
gine street railway line was con-
structed during the boom, but this
line has disappeared. The story is
that one wing of the corporation
that built it stole the track and en-
gines one night and ran off with
them.

Smokeless Powder Useless.

When the announcement was
made that smokeless powder was a
success, there was great exultation
among military men, as it was be-
lieved that it would be possible to
watch the maneuvers of an army
and command them to much better
advantage. A French genius now
comes forward with an invention
which knocks the smokeless pow
der into the shade. It is smoke
bomb which is capable of creating
vast clouds of smoke and can be
fred into the ranks of an enemy
who uses the smokeless powder, OBJ
scuring his view and placing him
at the same disadvantage as if he
used the old-fashioned powder.

Blacksmiths and Their Calling.

Blacksmiths and other iron-work-
ers should be very proud of their
calling. Gold has been called the
most precious of metals, and so ad-
mitted; but as between gold and
iron, the world could better dis
pense with the yellow metal than
with iron. Of course we could ex-
list without either; but to be with
out iron would carry us back CEN
turies and paralyze thousands upon
thousands of industries, and take
away nearly all the inventions of
modern civilization. This can read
lily be comprehended when once at
tention is called to the fact.
The antiquity Of iron is an un-
settled question, but we have men
ton of it in the earliest records, and
from all times the workers in iron
have been held in high esteem, and
ofttimes considered chief among
the many. The Greeks had their
Vulcan and the Hebrews their Tu-
bal Cain. Even in the wilds of
Africa, DR.. Livingstone discovered
workers in iron, and the novel
method they had of working it was
surprising. The modern forge is an
improvement over the bellows, but
the latter, of course, should not be
mentioned in the same breath with
the rude contrivance of the Atri-
cans-an earthen forge, covered
with two blow-pipes, acting without
any tuyeres, but attached to two
upright boxes or valves. In these
valves the operator places pistons,
which he works up and down al
ternately with either hand, and thus
forces a continuous blast. It is
rude but ingenious, and works reas-
onably we'll. A stone near by an
swers the purpose of an anvil. In
early times the glory of the iron
worker lay in the fact that he was
the maker of swords, spears and
other implements of war. War was
the pricipal occupation of people
then; might was right, and woe to
the captives.
Now the scene is changed. The
world is peaceful. Agriculture, com-

nish the chief sources of livelihood,
and in all these the iron worker lends
helping hand. The farmers i'm
plements are made by the iron
worker, his horses are shod (occa-
sionally) by the iron-worker; the
wheels of commerce are accelerated
by his efforts. Without him, it

HARDSHIP on MAD RIVER.
An Old Man Kills His Hounds and
Eats Them Raw.

And now comes q fitting wind-ul
to the long list of hard-winter ex
periences which have found Their

our old friend J. ]. Hale, and il
vouched for as entirely truthful by

made aware of the extraordinary
circumstances at the same time,
The information is contained in a

at the Low Gap of Mad river, and
received by his father three day.
ago. Peter Anderson of Low Gap
had engaged Hale and Will Nelson
to 60 to the range of Fred Nelson,
on Pilot creek, to look after some
calves which had been sent there to
winter.
They went, and failing to discover
any sign of the young stock for
which they were hunting, the young
men concluded to 60 to the cabin
of Alfred Beach, which was on the
range. On arrival there they found
the old man in a sorry condition,
being badly crippled by rheuma-
tism, and well nigh exhausted as q
result of his recent forced manner
of living. No fire had been built
i'll the cabin for many days, and as
long as they lasted Beach lived on
deerskins, eaten raw. He had a
number of hounds, and when the
deerskins were exhausted he killed
one of the hounds, which was eaten
without cooking, and without bread,
pepper or salt.
On the day the visitors arrived at
the cabin the third dog had been
killed for food. They carried some
provisions with them, and these
were turned over to the half-starved
man. One of the young men went
out and killed a deer, on which he
was fed until sufficiently able to be
placed on a horse and brought to
home. Of all the last
winter ordeals to which mountain
residents of Humboldt county were
this one will perhaps be
the most memorable. Mr.. Hale's
letter also states that Marshall and
Allen, on Mad river, lost all their
stock.-Eureka Standard, April %.

Facts About False Teeth.

How long do false teeth wear?'
an experienced dentist was asked
the other day.
"You might as we'll ask How
long does suit of clothes wear2'
was the reply" "It all depends
upon the quality of the teeth and
the care of the person who uses
them. If a woman bites thread with
her artificial molers, they are likely
to be ruined in a week. On the
other hand, I know persons who
have worn the same sets for twenty
years, and have never been com.
PEELED to have them repaired. Sets
made of the best material and in
the best manner should last a life
time with proper care"
"What is the proper care of false
teeth p
"Both the plates and the crowns
should be removed from the mouth
and cleansed every night and morn
ing"
"Do artificial teeth decay?"
''No. They are all made of por-
celain, which is not subject to de-
cay as the natural bone is. But at
the same time porcelain is more
brittle than bone, and hence an
artificial tooth will not stand many
hard knocks"
"What is the difference in the du-
rability of high-priced and cheap
teeth?"
"That is a very difficult question.
Cheap teeth are made of a material
that bears the same relation to that
of the best teeth that a common
stone china plate does to a Sevres
vase. Cheap teeth look like glazed
china, and that is about all that
some of them are. Now, so long as
the glaze lasts the teeth are as strong
as those made of the costliest ma
terial, and l have known Of a set
costing next to nothing to perform
service for many years. They are
not quite SO brittle, in fact, as those
made of the finest porcelain. But
the chief superiority of the latter
lies in their shape and appearance
and in the exactitude with which
they are fitted to the gums"
"What is the best of plate?"
"One made of gold. But black
rubber is just about as durable, only
it is harder to keep perfectly clean."
care complete sets of artificial
teeth not uncommon"
partial sets are more frequently
seen, but complete sets are by no
unusual"
"Who wear the most false teeth
or women?"
"Women, by long odds. I don't
think the result is due alone to
however, although that may
have something to do with it. The
chief reason is that the natural
teeth of women are not as good and
strong as those of men, and, there
fore have to be more frequently re-
placed by artificial teeth. ."-Ex.
