cREENLAND,s ICY HIGHWAY.
Here's a Suggestion, but Who VIII he
Able to Follow It7

For more than one hundred and fifty
years the inland ice of Greenland has
been source of increasing interest
and speculation to travellers and scien-
lists, and especially to students of the
physical history of the earth. says the
Biographical Magazine. For how much
longer it has been an object of SUPER
stltious horror to the scattered Eskimos
who inhabit the narrow strip of barren
mountains intervening between it and
the Arctic seas there is not even a
legend to say. The results of the
various attempts to explore it leave
little or no room to doubt that the in
terror of Greenland is entirely sub
merged beneath the accumulated frozen
precipitation of ages. This great con-
gealed reservoir has an area of some
6OO, ,OOO square miles, equal to about
three times the area of France or the
German empire, and twelve times the
area of New York State.
Its frozen surface in the center is
nine to ten thousand feet above the
sea level. Mount Blanc buried in it
would lose two-thirds its height and
two Mount Marcys, piled one upon the
other, would scarcely break its sur
face. From every point along its cir
cumference. where gaps in the Titan
dam of mountains that holds it in
check permit issue resistless glacier
streams, some of which are larger than
the entire glacier system of the Alps.
This unique phenomenon is extremely
interesting, both per Sc and in its re-
lations of the glacial epoch in this
country and in Europe, and further eff
forts for its exploration and study will
continue to be made and will yield
valuable results; but to me its great
charm is that to the proper party,
properly equipped, it is an imperial
highway, the like of which exists no.
where else under the sun.

The Race of the Euture.

There is forming in America at
present new race, distinct from all
others on the earth. 1t is being made
up of moiety of every race and ma
ton in existence. We note the disap-
pearance of blondes. says the Cincin-
natl Times Star. 1t is true they are
going. for the new race is going to be
dark-haired race. as pigmented peo-
pie always gain the ascendency where
they mingle equally with non-pigment-
ed, not because non-pigmented people
are less able to withstand disease than
the others. but for the same reason
that if you mix white and black the
white cannot preserve its purity. The
new one is to be the largest race of
the earth, and will contain all that is
good and some that is bad of all other
races. 1t is to be grand medley. and
the American of the future will be the
representative man of the world. But
we are as yet just beginning to develop
into this race, which may not be dis
tinctive one before 1000 years. To
sum it all up in a single statement.
would say that man is positively in
creasing in size. longevity, and intelli-
gence.

Symptoms of Riches.

at is hard to tell rich man when
yon see him." said hotel clerk to me
recently. Sometimes wealth runs to
fiashy clothes. superabundant jewelry
and loud manner; sometimes it is
concealed beneath Sinking demeanor
and hand-me-down suit and general
unobtrusiveness. The happy mean,
which take to be well-made clothes,
a courteous bearing to all men and q
nice combination of self-assertiveness
and respect for others feelings, is hard
ly ever seen by the hotel clerk, for the
reason, l suppose that rich men of this
caliber do not live much in hotels"
Just then an elderly man, whose
tangled gray locks had not felt a bar
ber's shears for many moons. whose
black frock coat bore the traces of
many an accident by soup and gravy.
whose face was not over clean and
whose shirt was not merely soiled but
wilted and brown near the neck where
it ended in collar that might have
been white week before, broke in
upon our conversation and said to the
clerk: What's yer rates by the day?'
The clerk gave the figures and the
old man, after consulting q big. open
faced gold watch. remarked that he
might be back later in the day. As
the possible guest departed the clerk
added to me: "rd like to amend what
I said about the difficulty of discover
ing mans financial status from his

rich man I can always identify with

ACCELERATED FERMENTATION.
How 1t Is Produced by a Recent Inven
tion in Germany.

The invention by F. Hofiheister.
Munich, Germany, consists in spread
ing the ferment used over large sur
face immersed in the liquor to be fer
mented. says the Scientific american.
For this purpose the fermenting vessel
is provided with large number of
diaphragms, bars, bands, or strips,
preferably consisting of some pure
tasteless fabric. In order to take up
as little vat space as possible the sup
ports are made very thin. and the sur
faces are placed in an inclined posi-
tion and in some cases perforated to
allow of the ready escape of the car
bonic acid.
The fermentation of wine, beer, etc.,
is started as follows: The ferment
supporting surfaces are sprinkled with
old must. beer, ETC., and the run is
closed and current of air aspirated
through the apparatus for thirty-six
hours. The must, wort, or other
liquid is then run into the tun, when
fermentation soon commences. Or
the arrangement of surfaces may be at
once placed in a fermenting liquid.
with the result that fermentation will
be considerably accelerated. In order
to produce sparkling drinks the tun
and its ferment carriers are placed in a
strong vessel, provided with lid, which
is fitted with a pressure-gauge. tap. and
manhole.
After fermentation the liquid may be
drawn off through tap at the bottom.
which communicates with the ferment-
ing vat. Two forms of the above ap-
paratus are described. According to
temperature and other factors. a
pressure of four to five atmospheres is
developed in period of one to six
days. If fermentation has been carried
on slowly (three to six days.. the
wine may be drawn off quite bright
provided the apparatus has been kept
at rest.
The use of ferment-bearing surfaces
is of great Importance to breweries.
Fermentation can be carried on at
lower temperature than usual, and
since fermentation goes on rapidly
smaller number of vessels will suffice.
The invention will also be of great
value to distilleries leading to con-
siderable economy in time. The losses
which usually occur owing to the pass
age of unfermented matter into the
mash, and to acid fermentations pro-
duced at the expense of alcohol. will
be entirely prevented by the rapid
fermentations at comparatively low
temperatures obtainable by the use of
this system. The working efficiency
of the apparatus increases with its age;
only the deposits on the surfaces
should be drawn about every two
months.

SpoOn Collections.

The custom of collecting spoons
doubtless had its origin in the visits
paid by our well-to-do people to
Europe. since it has from time i'm
memorial been the custom ito bring
back something" in the way of
souvenirs of the trip. Representative
articles from the several countries
visited were easy to obtain, and it was
but step to the fashion of getting like
articles from different lands by way of
contrasts for instance, headdresses.
foot wear, gloves and the like. Present.
ly it was found that the various coun-
tries INDUCED different patterns of
spoons-that in England the handle
terminated in representation of a
full-blown rose; in Scotland thistle
took the place of honor. the stem of the
handle more or less representing the
prickly stalk of the national flower; in
Holland the traditional windmill is
not only represented, but is arranged
so that the slightest movement of the
spoon sets the fairy wheel in operation.
These, as well as the gold-enameled
mementoes from Denmark and Nor
way, are representative of the coun-
tries, and stand for the entire domain.
Many of the European cities will be
found to have emblematic spoons. the
engraving of which is calculated SIM
ply to recall the single municipality.

Virtue in Lemons.

A good deal has been said lately
about the beneficial use of lemons and
lemonade. The latest advice, given by
a Dublin medical contemporary, is how
to use the fruit and the beverage so
that they will do the most good. Most
people know the value of bottle of
lemonade before breakfast. but few
know that the benefit is more than
doubled by taking another at night
also. The way to get the better of a
bilious attack without powders or qui-
nine is to take the juice of one, two or
three lemons in as much water as will
make it pleasant to drink without sugar
before going to bed. In the morning on
rising, at least half an hour before
breakfast. take the juice of one lemon
in tumblerful of ordinary or soda wa
ter. This will clear the system of all bile
without the aid of calomel or spa waters.
