"A rapid method for a~scertaining the
mount OF lime and sodium carbonate
necessary to soften a hard water has
been devised by NJ. l. Vignon. 1t gives
satisfactory results in waters which do
not contain a large quantity Of magne-
SUM chloride or sulphate. He employs a
standard solution of lime for titrating the
water, using an alcoholic solution of phe-
mol phthalein as an indicator. The volume
of lime water added is a measure Of the
lime required to combine with the free
carbonic acid present in the water, and
that necessary to convert the hydrogen
calcium carbonate and hydrogen magne-
SUM carbonate into insoluble salts. On
fltering of the precipitate formed in this
way from 100 C. C. of the water under
examination, the iltrate is titrated with
a solution of sodium carbonate contain
ing one gram per liter, phenol-phthalein
again being used to indicate the end OF
of the reaction. The amount of sodium
carbonate required will give the guam
tity of salts Of calcium and magnesium
other than acid carbonate present in the
water. -Industries.

A Historic Wooden Leg.

A celebrated wooden leg has been
discovered in an old Vincennes shop,
which was once a smithy. There is
abundant evidence to prove that the
relic in question is the sham limb
which replaced the leg which Gen.
Daumesnil lost in the big wars of Ma
poleon l. This rugged old warrior de.
Tended the fortress Of Vincennes
against the allied army, and is famous
for having said to the invaders, when
summoned to give up the place:
Bring me back my leg which you
have shot off and you shall have my
keys" The wooden leg now found
had been sent by Daumesnil to a Vim.
cennes smith in order to be ''shod," " as
the general expressed it. Before the ar
ticle was sent back the old warrior
died suddenly, and the sham limb re-
NAMED in the ancient smithy to the
present day. 1t is now In the artillery

toric souvenirs. London Telegraph.

Fred Leach, of Ansonia, has some fine
poultry, and he believes in feeding them
as regularly as he eats his own meals.
He is unable to be at home at night be.
fore the chickens go to rcost, and in
order that they may be fed without fail
he has rugged up an apparatus which
works like a charm. The uDual~ quantity
of corn is placed in a tin can, which is
suspended from a string and weighted.
An alarm clock in the outer coop releases
the string at a certain hour, the can
turns bottom side up and the corn is
scattered. There are our coops and
each has its can, all working at the same
time.-New Haven Palladium.

At the annual meeting of the Board of Direc-
tors of the above institution it was resolved, in
order to increase the usefulness of the Bank,
and to encourage small deposits, that the sys
TEN OF cent deposit stamps be adopted after
January l, 1891. This system has been in use
many years in Europe and has recently been
adopted in the United States, and is regarded as
very beneficial, tending to teach children and
young people the advantage OF saving money.
Agents will be appointed in all parts of the
city and county for the sale of 5 cent deposit
stamps. Each purchaser of two deposit stamps
will be furnished with book of ten leaves, each
leaf ruled for twenty stamps. The agent will
send the name and number of each book pur-
chased to the Bank. Whenever any depositor
has filled leaf with twenty stamps, he can
bring this or send it by mnil to the Bank. You
will then receive regular deposit book, with
one dollar to your credit and whenever another
leaf is filled and sent to the Bank another dollar
is entered on your book Or the entire stamp
book of ten leaves may be filled and sent to
the Bank at one time.
