WeightIng SILK.

Various methods have been resorted
to with different and in some cases far
from satisfactory results, in tho weight
ing of silk, particular efforts having
been made in this direction by French
and German manufacturers, each hav-
ing it's peculiar advantages, or other
wise. In ono of the processes now gem
orally adopted, tho plan pursued Is to
reduce the bichloride by water to so de-
grccs Reaumur, any stronger solution
being likely to injuro the fiber, while Mt
"a degrees the silk Is found to become
rough and valucless, afid ut 40 degrees
the fiber is dissolved. Tho silk Is well
worked in the solution until complete
saturation Is effected, allowed to re-
main two hours in tho liquor, and then
taken out and washed. Tho adaptation
of this simple method is made nppar-
cnt in the fact that one dip adds about
s per cent to the weight, and three
treatments give an increase of about IS
per cent. Bare hands are not used in
working the goods in bichlor::,ic of tin
at 80 degrees Rcaumur, as 1t acts injuri-
ousiy. Tho silk has to DO we'll waesed

Measuring with the Eve.

Measuring objects with the naked eye
is one of the most difficult tasks man
can set himself, and don't wonder that
it worries SO many youngsters at West
Point. The other day, at Sportsman's
park, there were ten men in the presi-
dents box with me, and offered to set
up the cigars if any one of them could
give the measurements of the big sign
| had just erected on the opposite fence,
in front of the house whose owner had
been making money by renting out
seats on the roof. The two worst shots
were 50x3O and 12xs, the actual meas
urement being 22x15. There wasn't q
man in the crowd who came within two
feet of either measurement, and If we
had canvasscd the grand stand doubt
II anyone would have got much nearer.
Except with an expert, measuring OBJ
jects or distances with the eye is pure
guess work

Tho Flannel Shirt.

1t is often asked in connection with
the great popularity of the summer
flannel shirt how it is that flannel will
blow both hot and cold, or keep man
warm in winter and cool in summer.
The reason really is that flannel is a
poor conductor, and hence when tho
body is covered with it variations in
atmospheric temperature are less felt.
good illustration of this can be found
In desert and parched countries, par-
ticularly Africa, where it is often neces-
sary for the white man to wear heavy
wooden clothing to protect his body
from the sun and heat. Tho heat and
annoyance from perspiration arc ter
riblc under such conditions, but they
are preferable to the agony caused by
wearing light clothing. Flannel really
keeps the heat out in summer just as It
keeps it in during winter, and by wear
ing it all the year round the tempera-
ture of the body is kept very nearly uni
form.

GUATEMALA MOONLIGHT.
a Common Thing for n Scnorita to Road
In Hammock at Midnight.


In a Hammock at Midnight.
Reading novels at midnight by the
| light of the moon is not known of in
the United States, says the Chicago
Tribune, but according to the English
wife of Signor Gregorio Rcvuelto, of
Guatemala, it is no uncommon thing to
sec senorita reclining In hammock
with book In her hand on her faith
Guatemala, between twelve and one
o'clock in the morning.
."There are no moonlight nights in
this country or in England like we have
in Guatemala" said the Spanish plant
er's wife recently. 1.-THE moon Mt
certain periods of the month is so
bright that it is as light outdoors us
during the day. English and Ameri-
can poets write about the sub
lime August moon, etc. They should
see q moon in Guatemala during the
time it is full They would then have
something to go into ecstacics about.
"It is too hot during the day in Costa
Cuca to be out for pleasure, and all our
little excursions around the country
are arranged to. take place at night,
when the moon is bright. For instance,
when q few friends desire to take
horseback rido around the country, the
pleasure is never arranged to take
place during the daytime. The night
is always selected, and tho moon fur
nishes the light. Picnics, boat rides
and all pleasure excursions take place
when it is known the moon will furnish
the light. do not exaggerate when I
say that it is no uncommon thing to see
a young woman reading novel early
in the morning by moonlight"
Sig. Revuelto does not speak much
English, but could speak enough to in
form all callers that the coffee crop this
yearwill be an immense one in Guate-
mala, and the cost of the article GER
tainly ought to be cheaper this fall.

AN ENORMOUS FORTUNE.
Tho Uscsnl Discovery, Which Was 1t
Foundation.

Tho UscSn1 Discovery Which Was Its
Foundation.
Tho story of tho enormous fortune
accumulated by Mr.. Cunliffe Lister Zone
OF the birthday peers") is ono of tho
romauces of Fortunes Mado in Busi-
ness" Going one day into n London
warehouse, says the Pail Mall Gazette,
he came upon pile of rubbish. Ho in
quircd what it was and was told that it
was waste silk. What do you do with
it?' he asked. Sell it for rubbish he
was told" Mr.. Lister bought it Us rub
Dish Mt onc-half pence u pound and
turned it into gold. He discovered,
that is to say, how to use silk waste for
the manufacture CT plush and other
such stuffs, and this discovery was tho
foundation of his second fortune. His
first fortune was made by his invention
of n wool-combing machine.
Mr.. Lister Is an exception in one re-
spect to the general rule of industrial
millionaires. He did not begin life
with only n sixpencc to bless himself
with, nor was his carly training that of
an GRAND boy. On the contrary, he be-
longs to an old county family, and was
designed (being the fourth sony for tho
church. Instead, however, of accept
ing this role of ''fool of the family he
insisted on developing shis natural
talent for mechanical invention, and
persuaded his father to give him mill
instead of university education. AS
soon as the mill was built he became,
Ms we have described, tho architect OF
his own fortunes. Mr.. Lister, besides
being the proprietor of the largest in
dustrial establishment in tho world
owned by ono man, is now ono of the
largest landed proprietors in the north
of England. In 1888 he purchased tho
Swinton Hall estate of twenty-five
thousand acres, and in 1887 the Riv-
aulX Abbey estate Of ten thousand
acres. The combined valuo of these
two estates is said to be seven hundred
and eighty thousand pounds sterling.

CHINESE DRUGS.

Some OF tho Disgusting Substances Used

A Chinese druggist will freely display
the most nauseous and disgusting sub
stances as medicine; often he will keep

time when it will be pounded whole in
q mortar, coram populo, to convince
customers that his drugs are genuine.
Medicines are gulpcd down by the
quart, the prcscribcr holding that if
one ingredient does not do it's work an
other may. Their virtues, neverthc-
less, are many and mysterious.
missionary doctor, says Temple Bar,
was well acquainted with native prac-
titioner, n man of considerable intelli-
gcnce and rcpute. Him he broughtto his
home one day and showed with natural
pride his three fair-haired little girls.
The native fastened to compliment his
foreign friend: 'sTheir complexions
are indeed beautiful, but, if may say
80, their hair is perhaps hardly darl,
enough" He produced n bottle. "a
dose of this taken internally three
times o day would mako n wonderful

embarrassment: 'Thcre is another

bodies of victims to sudden and acciden-
tai DEATHS that the law demands should
be kept pending n coroner's inquest or
judicial investigation.
The refrigeration system for the city
morguc has been long felt want,
especially among the poor having rel
atiyes or friends dying in the hospitals
and public institutions. They frequent
ly have to leave their dead at the
morgue for several days after death in
order to gather sufficient funds for hui
name burial.
The system of refrigeration which
the medical committee of inspection in
dorsed is acknowledged to be the best
that could be adopted. The principle
Is on circulation of cold air, the result
being absolute dryncss, one of the
most essential qualities for the prescr-
walton of perishablc materials. Then
there is isolation of all materials from
injurious contact with the ice.
The morgue refrigerator to be placed
in use will be 10 feet in length, feet 6
inches in height and having n depth of
z feet 6 inches. 1t will be of heavy
ash wood, lined throughout with gall
vanized iron, and having walls insu-
lated with boiler hair telling and
sheathing.
The refrigerator will be constructed
so as to contain fifteen separate COM
partmcnts. These compartments will
be arranged in two sections, upper and
lower, SO that there will be provision
for six bodies in the upper division and
nine in the lower.
The bodies will be placed on frame
{ work, and so arranged that one can be
drawn out for inspection from head to
foot Slides containing the given
names of the dead are to be placed on
the doors of the different compart-
ments.
The ice to create the required cold air
is to be placed in tanks built in the re-
frigerator fer the purpose. Not moro
than 200 tons are needed to supply the
capacity. The consumption will not be
over 400 pounds of ice every twenty
four hours.
This consumption is allowed for the
hottest days, while with ordinary warm
weather the expense will proportion

refrigeration for Corpses at the
Now Yorl: Morgue.
Tho Innovation VIII Preserve tho Dead
md Relieve tho NIorsue of Much
OF Its Gruesome Aspcct-Details
OF tho Systcm.

Tho question of providing some
means for the preservation of the dead
at tho morgue during the summer has
at last been definitely settled, and plans
for this purpose have now been decided
upon, says the New York World.
About two months ago the medical
committee of inspection of Bellevue
hospital called the attention of the
commissioners of the department of
charities and correction to the fact,
that unless some provision was made
at the morgue for the preservation of
the dead, the bodies would become I'M
recognizable from the effects of the
heat and modification.
The commissioners agreed that some
thing should be done. The matter was
referred to the committee of inspection,
and DR.. Polk and his colleagues, Profs.
Z George L. Peabody, w. Gill Wylie and
j. D. Bryant, then gave the subject
their mbined consideration.
According to their report, it was sug'
gested that n refrigeration process be
introduced into the morguc building,
constructed and operated on the Lorril
lard system, and so arranged that at
least provision be made for the placing
of q dozen bodies ut a time.
These subjects for preservation were
not to be those of the general run of
those whose deaths occurred through
natural or ordinary. causes, but the

CONCERNING PRESCRIPTIONS.

They Belong to tho Patient MS Soon as
He Receives Them. /
The law lays down no rule as to the
tormalities to be observed by q practi-
TONER when prescribing for patient,
and he may, and often does, prescribe
perfectly well by merely giving verbal
directions to be observed by his patient.
When, however, these directions include
tho use of any particular drugs it Is
usual and convenient to put them into
writing, SO that the patient may not
make any mistake In ordering the drugs
which he is advised to use. The use Of
giving q written prescription does not
affect the property in tho piece of pa
per given to the patient It Is his tho
moment he receives it, says the British
Medical Journal, unless by custom or
by special agreement it belongs to some
one else. A custom to be good in law
must be general, and there Is no custom
as that prescription belongs to any
one except the patient ut present known
In England. Tho paper, therefore, be-
longs to the patient unless he agrees
with his medical attendant that 1t shall
not
1t is, of course, open to any practi-
toner to stipulatc that his prescriptions
shall belong to himself, or shall only be
madc up by u particular chemist, who
shall destroy the paper as soon as he
has used it, but it is equally open to
each of his patients to decline to be
bound by any such stipulation, and to
do what he chooses with the paper
when once he has got it. Any such
stipulations should DO clearly brought
to the notice Of the patients before
they consult their medical advisors, so
as to give them the option; If only men
toned after the prescription has been
given they would not be binding.
