SOME NEW INVENTIONS.

A NEW contrivance has been applied
to watches called an appointment re-
ninder." A small dial is set into the
watch's face, upon which one can set
the hands at any hour required.
A NEW calculating machine has just
been invented in France and obtained a
gold medal at the exhibition. The in
ventor is M. Bollee, of La Mans,
clever machinist, already very favorably
known by other useful inventions. The
machine does addition, multiplication
and division with astonishing rspidity
and all by the turn of the wheel.
Az important invention has just been
tested on the Michigan Central railroad
that promises TO have an important
bearing on the future of railroading. A
locomotive has been built with high and
low pressure cylinders, as is used in
stationary engines, with the addition of
a valve that makes both high and
low pressure when desired. This saves
about one-half the coal, but does, not
add to the speed. Other improvements
are expected TO perfect the locomotive
30 as TO make il the most economical in
existence.
UMBRELLA-MAKrNG is among the most
interesting of Birmingham industries.
Although probably not more than one
thousand hands are employed, some
thing like one thousand patents have
been taken out during the last twenty
years. The most recent inventor, who,
if successful, will eclipse all rivals, is a
maker who claims TO have contrived
transparent umbrella, which, while
being equally as waterproof as silks and
alpaoas, will have the great advantage
of allowing the wayfarer in rain-storm
to avoid collisions with lamp-posts and
other obstacles along the way.
A MUSICAL gas machine is an English
invention, and 1t is called the pyrophone.
It's compass is three ootaves. with key
board, and IL will be played in tho
same manner as an organ 1t has thirty
seven glass tubes, in which like number
Of gas jets burn These jets placed in a
circle contract and expand. When the
small burners separate the sound Is pro
| duced; when they close together the
sound ceases. The tone depends upon
| the number OF burners and the size Of
the tubes in which they burn. 80 that BY
q careful arrangement and selection all
the notes of the musical scale may be
produced in several octsves. Some Of
the glass tubes in which the Jets burn
are nearly eleven feet long

The Water Question.

To the Editor OF the TELEGRAN-IlERALD.
! notice in your last issue that Mr.. NJ.
II. Crow asserts that some one has
threatened to ruin the Hydraulic Com
pany, and he feels very much aggrleved
thereat. 1t seems to me that such a
complaint comes with poor grace from
a man who has attempted to ruin our
water works..by setting up an opposition.
He has not only done this, bat is now
trying to obtain possession of them for
a much less sum than they are worth.
Some folks call this stealing. 1t seems
to ME that every good citizen should
resent such treatment. 1t Is as If Mr..
Crow said to every citizen 81 see you
are not making much of a success Of
your business, and | guess l Will take
charge of it. will pay you somewhere
near what you have invested, and If
YOU don't like that | will set up an OPP
position shop and ruin your profits
We can manage our own business with
out any of his help. If necessary we
can lay separate set OF mains Of small
size IN every street IN the city
and fill them with pure spring
water drawn from the West
side, above the ID. q NJ. Railroad.
would let no person tap these mains
with ANYTHING larger than half inch
pipe, and it should be tin lined at that,
10 avoid lead poisoning and used only
fcr:drinking.
There is no sense in wasting spring
water to put out fires, or sprinkle lawns,
or flush water closets, or for anything
except to drink. In fact, there IS not
enough spring water to 60 around if II
is wasted. ! should favor such a plan
0 supply our city with pure drinking
water, and plenty of cheap water fol
other purposes.
Ii the plant of the Hydraulic Com
pany can be bought for what is worth
let us buy it. 1t viii only be necessary
to add few four-lnch mains and Gu

arm Clothing.

The relation OF animal heat to health
and proper digestion is very close.
Good health is never secured except
by proper attention to clothing. This
should be neither too heavy nor too
Scanty. The animal heat is too largely
retained in the one case, and INSULT
GENTLY held in the other. External
cold, in moderate degree, acts as a
sort OF stimulant through the nervous
system, when it comes in contact with
an exposed or thinly clad part of the
body.
One of the chief causes of a chill is
a sudden evaporation of the perspira-
ton. Another is a sudden arrest of
perspiration. These are largely pre-
vented when one is clad in comfortable
Undertaking. The bracing effect of
cold is felt when one is not too thickly
clothed, and when at the same time
the surface heat is in a dangerous ex-
cess. Thus 1.-The indiscriminate use of
the thick, heavy overcoat" cannot be
too greatly deprecated. To this may
be largely attributed the colds so com.
mon in the cold seasons of the year
Warm, thick underclothing and light
outerclothing - this should be the
habit adopted. 1t is IN the intermit
tent use of the heavy overcoat tha

Fighting at Some Disadvantage.

A bull dog dwells on High street, in
Auburn, of bull dog tendencies in
spite of domesticity. He knows one
master "a boy of tender years who
drives the bull dog around in sled
and who, when he does not behave,
punches the bull dog in the head and
proves who is running the establish
ment. Strong men have turned aside
for this dog. One gentleman of over
LIS pounds avoirdupois crosses the
street when the bull dog, lying in wait
for him, sticks his head out of the
front yard and shakes his upper lin
commandingly. This bull dog and
his juvenile master were out having
drive one day this week, the dog being
harnesSed into the sled and being left
standing on the walk while the boy
went INTO the house after q bit of noui.
lshlng gingerbread The situation re-
NAMED unchanged until another doc
appeared on the scene. The Shifting
panorama turns now to a tableau,
where the bull dog is bounding over
the sidewalk and the next moment is
engaging the other dog in mortal COM
bat in the middle of the street He
was handicapped by his attachment of
sled and harness, but he was very ac-
tive gust the same and the dogs fought
under the sled and over the sled and
on top of the sled. A team was com
ing down the street and the driver did
not see the dogs and the dogs did not
see the horse. There was a sudden
collision and panic of dog, sled, boy
and horse, and the street was full of
woe. W hen the relics were gathered
up the bull dog was found to be un-
hurt and ready to proceed to his daily
routine of decentralization. Lewiston
