A TRIP on the kite-shaped railroad is
becoming the rage. There is something
of reminder of Mark Twain's "blue
trip ticket" difficulty in the way in
which one asks for his pasteboard to
make this trip. 1t is not every tongue
that can trippingly rattle off the words:
"Give me kite-shape track ticket for a
kite shaped track round fare" and then
tell the conductor to punch the kite
shaped track ticket, punch with care !;
punch for the kite-shaped track ticket
passenjaire." We commend this little
exercise to persons who stutter and to
teachers of elocution.

SUPERIOR TO BUTTER.
DR.. Ames an Ardent Advocate of tn,
Use of Butterine.

Use of Butterine.
DR. Howard E. Ames of the United Statee
navy, who has taken so prominent part in tn
various discussions during the convention of
the American Public Health association, is
probably one of the most thoroughly informed
men on the question of proper aud nutritious
food in the United States One OF the articles
of food to which he has paid particular atten-
ton is butterine, which he considers a far su-
perior article of diet to butter.
s'The reason it is not more common article
of diet" he explained to a reporter of the Star,
sis because of popular prejudice, founded
largely upon imagination and careless state
ments made by many uninformed persons, and,
as matter of fact, there isn't one in 10000
who can tell the difference between the two
The nutritious value is fully equal to that of
butter; it is much cheaper, and when properly
made will remain sweet and fit for consump-
tion much longer.
There might b. some argument against but
terine made in small establishments where the
material from which it is made is allowed to
accumulate Tor several days, but in the large
establishments like those in this city, where
the ematerial is taken from animals killed the
same day, the Dutterine is more free from i'm
purities than butter. There is more fermenta-
tion or putrefactive change in milk than the
other materials and the best butterine is that
made with the least milk
"The manufacture OF butterine in properly
constructed factories is much more clean, too
than the manufacture of butter, and the fac
tories here, notice, are nearly perfect in that
respect The matter used for coloring is in no
way injurious, and the high temperature to
which the materials are subjected perfectly
sterilizes them. l have seen butterine and but
ter put up IN cans at the same time, and when
opened ten or twelve months later the butterine
was sweet while the butter was rancid and
unfit for use.
"The idea is to educate the people up to
using it, 1 have recommended its use for the
regular rations in the army and navy, and am
satisfied that it will prove better article of
food than butter. IL should be more generally
used and not looked upon as an inferior arti-
Gle and makeshift for butter, when it is really
superior. '-l Kansas City Star.
N. B. DR.. Ames represented the United Sta tes
government at the recent convention held in
Kansas City by the American Public Health
aSSocintiOn.

THE curative virtues of the waters
and baths OF Arrowhead Hot Springs
are evidently attracting the attention Of
health-seekers all over the Union. A
letter before us says: 1--WE are having
lovely weather, and a house full of

nice class Of people they are, too. OF
course, we have our share Of growlers,
but the place would not be complete

Mr.. w. G.. Morrow furnishes the
Examiner with a most interesting
sketch of the life and works of Father
Joseph Bayma, of Santa Clara college,
who died there ten days ago at the age
OF 76. Father Bayma was unknown 10
the public, but his works. especially in
mathematics, were known and appre-
ciated by the greatest scientists of the
age. Besides innumerable school works
on algebra, geometry, integral and diff
ferential calculus, scheme of Latin
terminology and book on higher me-
chanics. innumerable treatises on relig-
ious subjects, a complete work of his is
now in press for the Smithsonian insti-
tute on "Cycloidal Functions" with
logarithms calculated to eight places.
But work of his of still more peculiar
interest is 1.-The curves assumed and
described by a falling drop of water p
What theme for book Mr.. Morrow
thinks, however, that the reverend
fathers most astonishing work is one
which he has studied and has before
him as he writes. He Gays of the pro-
duction, which is entitled Molecular
Mechanics :"
''Of this great book I have been told
that only one hundred copies were
printed and they were distributed
gratuitously among the leading univers-
tiles and scientists of the world. Hardly
a notice of it ever found its way into the
public prints, but it created profound
sensation in the scientific world and
even Tyndall, who had not been spared
by the author, wrote in his mastery re-
view of the work, ''It is a century be-
fore its time. Not seven men in En-
gland now can understand it.' Then,
after taking breath, he remarked that
scieH lists must refnta the work at once
or forever hold their peace and accept
its conclusions. 1t has never been re-
futed and twenty-six years have elapsed
since its appearance"
From the above it is evident that a
great and rare genius has lived amongst
us without our knowing it. Indeed,
such man is seldom known outside OF
the small world who can appreciate his
great qualities, and that world will
know how to lament his death.

house was completely wrecked. the
