An American Drink.
From Harper 8 WeekIn

Soda water is an American drink, Ie ia
as essentially American as porter, Rhine
wine and claret are distinctively English,
German and French. The most interesting
fact IN the manufacture of soda water Is
that 1t contains no soda. The prominent
ingredients are marble dust and sulphuric
acid, neither of which Is regarded
as heslthful nor palatabie when taken
separately. Moreover, to render them
so In combination requires a pressure
of at least $50 pounds TO the square
inch-a condition dangerous to life aud limb
except under proper safeguards and with
the strongest machinery. The generator
Is, in fact, made Of gun-metal iron tested to
800 pounds to the square inch. Into this is
put the marble dust, to which, from an
other strong chamber, is led the sulphuric
acid. Then the two are Graded. aud the
generated is passed into steel fountains
lined with block-tin, two-thirds
full Of water to be charged.
fastened, aud, like huge bombs In size and
almost as destructive, are carried in wagons
through the streets, to be stored under
drug store counters. Surely 10 all the his
tory of fairyland there is nothing more
marvellous than the escape of this spark
ling, bubbling, foan-crested liquor, like an
enchanted prince from the gloomy DEATH
chamber, to delight and refresh the world.
Whiting formerly was used to furnish the
carbonate, and whiting and chalk are still
used in England. The uss of marble dust
under the pretty name of snow fake.n is
peculiar to this country. We produce our
own marble, moreover, and whiting comes
under the provisions Of the Mckinley bill.
The chips Of the marble cathedral on Fifth
avenue alone supplied %. ZOO, 900 gallons of
soda water; thus economically we drink I'D
unavailable bits of buildings (public and
private), tombstones and monuments.
Except In the improvement of machinery
and in its method of distribution, the manu-
facture OF soda water remains much the
same. The method employed by the dis
tingufshed engineer Bramah is still in use
The man, in fact. whose name is most prom
iuently identified with the national drink In
this country was an apprentice in Bramah,
and has developed his method here. That
form of concentration, moreover, that all
sorts of enterprises now take was long since
feature OF the soda water industry.
Formerly the actual process took place
under the drug store counter. No one has
yet estimated the decreased percentage in
loss of life since the drug store boy ceased
playing with the viriol, carbonates and
force-pump as IL he had squirt gun in a
hogshead OF water under an cave trough.
Explosions of soda fountains do now some
times OCCUR. but they have ceased to be a
national feature, as on reading old English
catalogues of rival manufactures they seem
once TO have been.

MOTHS.

Many dollars are wasted every
year in stores Of gum-camphor and
of snuff and shredded tobacco, by
whose strong, pungent, and repellent
odors these enemies of our clothing
are supposed to be driven away.
But the truth is that none of these
things are necessary, and they owe
the reputation of their efficacy solely
to the care with which they are car
ried out. 1t is that care, and only
that care, which expels the eggs hid
den away already in convenient
places, and keeps out the mother
moth so that she cannot be the
means of working further damage.
A method of keeping furs and all
other articles uninjured, which is per-
fectly effectuai, is one which requires
no tobacco or camphor Or any drug
whatever; it is simply the ounce of
prevention. Let each article be hung
on the line out doors, and then
whipped with a slender rod; this
process will expel every egg that has
been laid in its recesses. That done,
let the article be immedia tely folded
away in several layers of newspa-
pers. or, indeed, of any stout paper,
and the edges of the papers gummed
with starch or mucilage, SO that the
mother moth cannot find an entrance
to lay other eggs, and it is certain
that the garments will be taken out
in the fall entirely whole and sound.
This OF course presuppOses that the
wrapping has been SO complete that
the mother moth can find no crevice
through which to creep and deposit
her eggs thereafter, and that the eggs
already laid have been beaten out of
the clothes If these eggs have not
been disposed of, all the tobacco of
America or camphor of Asia will not
hinder the worms Matching from
eggs remaining in the clothes, from
eating till it is time for them to spin,
and from Kidding their shelter with
holes.-[ Harper's Bazaar.

that is to say, the number of puffs
given by a railway engine during
conference of its driving wheels and
their speed. No matter what the
rate of speed may be, for every one
round of the driving wheels a loco
motive will give four puffs-two out
of each cylinder, the cylinders being
double. The sizes of driving wheels
vary, some being IS, 10, 20 and even
% feet in circumference, although
they are generally made Of about 20
feet. The express speed varies from
81 to SO miles an hour. Taking the
average circumference of the driving
wheel to be twenty feet, and the
speed per hour fifty miles, locomo
tive will give, going a express speed,
$50 puffs per minute, or $500 puffs
per hour, the wheel revolving IS 200
times in sixty minutes, giving 1856
puffs per mile. Therefore, an express
going from London to Liverpool, a
distance of 2O1A miles, will throw

WORMS FOR TROUT.

1t is not difficult. even for a novice,
to catch trout at the beginning of
the season, before it has grown
warm enough to make their natural
food plentiful, says the Boston Her
aid They feed chiefly on worms,
bugs, flies, beetles and the like, but
when hard pressed they will gobble
little fishes In fact they won't OBJ
ject to a baby water snake. as we
know from the fact that such dainties
have been found in trout stomachs,
says the Pittsburg Dispatch. AS the
trout appetite is always keen, and as
food is scarce early in the season,
they will jump at almost any kind of
bait A little later, however, when
they find plenty of food that does
not conceal the hook. it requires the
skill of an expert to lure the beauties
from the water.
There is no better bait for the nov
ice to use at the beginning of the
season than the common red angle
worm He would catch no trout in
his initial venture if he were to use
the fly, and it is discouraging to fish
where the fishing is good without
catching any fish. Trout fishing
with bait is something in the nature
of an objectionable sin in the eyes of
a skilled fisherman, but first lessons
are essential in all arts. You can

a fence rail, shuts both eyes and
