The Light of the Future,

1t seems hard to believe that in very
few years the incandescent lamp, which
we now regard as in many respects an
almost perfect light, will be regarded
as crude makeshift which mankind
availed itself of while science stood on
the threshold of the discovery of the
perfect luminant. Mr.. Tesla has shown
in his experiments an ideal form of
electric lighting which would transcend
in luxury and convenience our present
system of electric lighting by incandes-
cent lamps as far as the latter transcends
the oil lamps and tallow dips used by
our near ancestors.
Every drawing room would become
an electric field in a continual state of
rapidly alternating stress, in which the
occupants would live, experiencing no
unpleasant effect whatever, while vacu-
Gus tubes of phosphorescent globes and
tubes, without care or attention, would
shed soft diffuse light of color and in
tensity arranged to suit the most lux
urious fancy.
Mr.. Tesla's watchword is that the
phosphorescent glow is the light of the
future. He hints at artificial aurora
spreading from the SUBMITS of towers
or hitherto undreamed of height, and he
has at all events got as far as produc-
ing in the air at atmospheric pressure a
glowing plane bounded by two rings
about foot and thirty inches in diam
eter respectively. Whether all his Wis
ions will be realized remains to be
proved. There is no doubt that they
are guiding him right.-Chicago Inter
Ocean.

Richfeld Springs has gone bug mad.
This statement has an invidious sound,
| am aware, but it is the unvarnished
truth none the less. There may be pal
liation in the fact that the insects are of
a high order of creeping things. They
are not loathsome. On the contrary
these bugs over which Richfield has lost
its wits temporarily are harmless, unob-
trusive and in some respects beautiful
members of their kind. They are of the
genus Elator noctilucus, described by
naturalists as "a winged, luminous in
sect which emits a brilliant light from
a yellow spot on each side Of the thorax
and from other parts of the body"
These particular specimens were
brought to Richfeld by the Cuban
grandees at the Darlington, and by them
were introduced to the throng ON the
verandas one evening of the past week,
The Cubans had thirty or forty of the
curious, beetlelike insects, more than
half of which they gave away to ladies
among their acquaintance. Fastened
to the dress in piece of lace the cur
rullas, as they are called by the natives
look in the dark like a cluster of emer
aids of wonderful brilliancy, and as
every lady who could get one has worn
it with her evening toilet the effect ha!
created a decidedly novel sensation

An Advantage.

Some very interesting comparisons
have lately been officially put forth
showing Great Britain's increase in ma
val strength during the past six years.
The figures show that her claim to the
title of mistress of the seas" is in no
immediate danger, but they also show
that one very burdensome source Of ex-
pense each year which the admiralty is
called upon to bear consists in overhaul
ing, reftting and in many ways rejuve-
mating warships that but few years
ago were among the marine wonders of
the world.
The United States have at least one
thing to serve as a consolation for hav-
ing been so long without any navy
worthy of the name. The money we
now spend in building up navy nearly
all goes for new work; for construction
and not for reconstruction. - Chicago

Don't Talk Too Much.

Customers who show by their manner
that they prefer to be alone with their
thoughts while under the razor are never
annoyed, says an exchange.
A great deal has been said about the
talkativeness of BARRIERS, but if those who
try to be funny on that subject We're
better posted they would find a reason
for it other than the mere loquacity of
the barber.
1t is infinitely easier to handle Gus
toner who is interested in conversa-
ton. This is particularly true of a
nervous or fdgity man, who, if the oper-
alton goes on in silence, becomes rest
less and growls at the razor, or objects
to the way in which he is being shaved.
The talk takes his mind away from his
face, SO that he is often surprised to find
the work finished when he thought it
scarcely begun.
A barber never gets into an argument
with his customer. His opinions veer
around like weather vane to suit the
particular man upon whom he may be
operating at the time. The conversation
dodge is merely one of the tricks of the
trade. Of course there are a few young
er members of the tonsorial fraternity
who use little judgment in talking to
customers, and no one is more amused
than their fellow BARRIERS when they get
a setback from some irascible tempered
victim of their gable.

Drainage and Stocking Ponds with Fish

A distinguished scientist has been tell

''On the 9Th of july" he says, 81 no.
ticed for the first time few mosquitoes
on the porch of my cottage on Onteor
mountain, near Farmersville, Or. o.
county, n. Y. The elevation of thi cot
tage is about $500 feet, and mosquitoes
have hitherto been rare visitors. The
month of June, however, was very wet,
and as / had noticed several pools of
surface water in the immediate vicinity
the presence of these mosquitoes caused
me some anxiety, as l feared that they
would continue to breed throu~h the
summer and prove a serious am pyance
later in the summer.
Gone of the surface pools mentioned
was situated upon my own grounds, and
upon first noticing the mosquitoes l
walked out to this spot. 1t was about
dusk and n dozen or more female mos
quitoes were found buzzing about the
surface of the water. | Immediately
sprinkled four ounces of coal oil upon
the surface of the pond. Upon the fol-
lowing day L carefully measured the lit
tie pool and found that it contained sixty
square feet.
From day to day until the 18th OBJ
servations were made. Some transforms
occurred on the Sth and 10th of the
month, and after the 1st of July the pool
lost the CLASSY, iridescent surface effect
given by the almost continuous and in
fi1itesimally thin layer of kerosene.
Nevertheless the insecticidal effect of
the latter did not seem to diminish, al
though L could not perceive any coal oil
odor. Many dead insects were found
| floating upon the surface of the water
the next morning after the application,
and these increased rapidly. The pool
which on the evening of the 9th had
been teeming with animal life contained
no living insects during the following
| ten days. The tenth day after the APP
plication of the kerosene a careful count
of the dead insects floating upon the
| surface of the water showed that there
were $40 mosquitoes, besides many
moths and other insects"
The scientist who made this discov-
cry believes that with the drainage of
swamp lands, the introduction of fish
into ponds where they are not found,
and by carefully watching tanks and
rainwater barrels and treating them
with oil before the female has a chance
to lay her eggs, the mosquito nuisance
may be greatly lessened.-New York

Lessened Demand for the Horse.

1t has already been stated that the
electric motor has displaced about 30, 900
horses in one year in the street railway
service. In cities where the electric
railway is in general use livery stables
are going out of the business and private
families are giving up the use of car
riages, partially because of the facilities
for rapid transit and particularly for
the reason that it is not pleasant to be
passed by the swiftly moving cars, espe-
cially when the risk of a runaway must
also be considered. If there is a les
sened demand for the horse, which now
appears probable, there will be a less
number raised, as he is Of no economic
value except as beast of burden. The
land now devoted TO his support may be
utilized for other purposes. The COM
petition of the electric with the steam
railway is also Observation-Disclosures
