Francis Mnrnhy Treats.

A short, thick set man, with silver
streaks in his hair and bushy mustache
stood in the rotunda Of the Grand Pa
cific and talked earnestly to a group Of
reporters that encircled him. Friends,
he said, cit is very warm. Let us go tc
my room and have long drink" This
startled the young men, for the speaker
had never said such sweet words before
But recovering quickly they followed
the man to his room. He rang for 6
bellboy, and when the messenger ar
rived the host said: Bring us four nice
large sparkling glasses of ice water.
Then all was quiet. You could have
heard couple of pins drop, and eact

lecturer.-Chicago Herald.

A Eirenrnnf Lnist.

Professor Goodman is reported by The
Builder as stating in lecture on fire pre-
vention that, generally speaking, wooden
joists are better for buildings than steel or
iron joists. The two latter materials, he
explained, lose their strength at not very
high temperature, whereas wood would
sustain heavy strain for much longer
period when exposed to great heat. Be-
sides, when wood has once been charred it
does not burn so readily again. Iron and
steel soon expand under the influence of
heat. Brick and stone are Objectionable
the former becomes fused under great heat
and the latter is liable to crack or fly when
suddenly cooled after heating. The draw
back to tiles is that when fire plays upon
the ioists of floors fitted with them the
joists expand and allow the fire to play
upon the joists through the tiles. Port
land cement is Objectionable, as it fakes off
when heated, but if wire netting or bars
are imbedded in concrete this defect is
remedied. A joist padded with silicate of
cotton and incased in salamander plaster
Ga mixture of silicate, cotton and plaster of
paris), the professor holds, is a splendid
fireproofing material Such material is
not only nonconductor, but it is elastic
and would yield with the joist. In an ex-
pertinent undertaken by Professor Good
man it was found that joist of this kind
withstood very fierce heat for eight to nine
hours without sustaining any serious dam
age.

She'd Her Nails EVERY June,

A Neapolitan physician has recently
described wonderful case of hysteria
in one of his female patients. The case
has been prolonged and aggravated, the
popularity being in the fact that the
lady thus afflicted annually usually in
the month of june sheds both finger and
toenaiis. This remarkable change is
preceded by tingling sensation, espe-
cially in the thumbs and great toGs, fol-
lowed with suppuration at the bed of the
nails From the time of the first tin
Cling sensation at the root of the nails, a
week scarcely elapses before every nail
on toe and finger have been spontaneously
shed like the skin of snake or the shell
of crab The learned M. d. attributes
this curious affection of the nails to a
disordered nerve function.-St, Louis

A Now Use for Broken Glass.

Some ingenious Frenchman has found a
new use for broken glass. The Manufact-
urer tells thatin Paris fragments of broken
glass of various colors are mixed together,
after having been broken to a suitable size;
they are then placed in molds lined with
silica, tale or some other resisting material,
and fired. A coherent mass is produced
which can be dressed and cut into blocks,
which are, of course, irregularly colored.
Such blocks may be used as artificial mar
bile. The blocks are usually rough on one
side, owing, perhaps, to incomplete fusion;
this gives a surface which is admirably
adapted for causing them, especially if they
arb slablike in form, to adhere to walls
with the addition of little mortar. Fine
decorative effects can thus be produced.
Designs in relief can be obtained by pres
sure while the block or slab is still plastic.

often extremely tenacious of life, and an
instance is reported where prolonged

of treatment.
Such immense advances have been made
in the field of bacteriology during the past
few years, and the results of the investiga-
