No Telegraph Poles in China.

There are no telegraph poles in China.
Not because there are no telegraph lines,
nor yet because there is not wood suitable
for use as poles. Strangely enough the
reason is purely religious. The Chinese
worship their dead fathers and grand
fathers and regard the resting places Of
their remains as so sacred that they deem
it sacrilege to allow shadow to be
cast upon their graves. When the line
men OF the first Chinese telegraph COM
panies began operations they were en-
barrassed in their operations by crowds
of inhabitants who followed them about
and, with the most frightful blasphemies,
cut down the poles almost as fast as they
were erected. For some time no expla-
nation could be obtained, but at last the
working parties discovered that in the
more thickly- settled districts of the
Celestial empire graves were everywhere
to be found, and scarcely pole could be
erected anywhere but that at some time
Of the day it cast its shadow on a grave.
The difficulty was insuperable, and the
Chinese government, anxious as it was to
render assistance, stood powerless Sc
all the wires went underground, and it is
said the system proved perfectly efficient

Thev Have No Daily Bread.

"The cattle herders of the Argentine
Republic are perhaps the only civilized
people on the globe who eat no bread"
said George J. Giddings. of New Orleans.
81 was sent to that country year ago
by an English syndicate to buy cattle for
the London market. l penetrated 700
miles into the interior, and for months
lived among the rural folk. They are the
happiest, gentlest and most hospitable
people ever saw. Their habits are frugal,
though not especially energetic, and their
mode of life is primitive, but clean and
virtuous.
"The natives, for the most part, live in
little mud huts. They subsist entirely on
dried beef and tea, made from a native
herb leaf When they want meat they
kill beef on the pampas, and, after skim
ming and cleaning him, hang the carcass
up to dry in the blazing sun. After thus
exposing it to the sun for two days the
meat is then in prime condition for the
Argentinian to palate after it is cooked.
A great thick hunk of it is sliced off the
neck or sides and, impaled on a wooden
fork, is held over a flame until it quits
sizzling and cracking.
"Then a bountiful supply of salt and
red pepper is sprinkled over the meat, q
little grease and water are poured over it
and you have a dish fit for the gods,
when the tea is drawn and ready to 60
with it. The better class OF natives
usually keep a small supply OF coarse corn
meal in their houses with which to make
bread for distinguished guests, but they
never eat any Of this bread themselves
nor do they seem to care for it.-St. Louis

New Wrinkles for Engineers.

In writing on graphite, an engineer
recommends the use Of that very valuable
article in some unfamiliar way. He says
he has used handhole and manhole gas
kets eight or ten times by carefully
smearing the surface next the boiler shell
with graphite. In packing water glasses
by putting little graphite or oil on the
gasket they would vulcanize as soft as a
lamp wick and retain their elasticity
until the glass changed, when the old
rubber could be removed without trou BILE.
In the old way the rubber would be
baked as hard as vulcanite, and take
much time to dig out. Another use of
graphite is in putting back the handhole
plate of plugs in the back connection.
All the SCOT and ashes should be carefully
brushed away, and with a small brush a
good coat of graphite should be laid over
the fiange, stud and nuts. After running
the boiler from three to six months,
even using coke for fuel, with forced
draft, the nuts can be removed without
trouble, as the heat has not been great
enough to burn the lead.-Pittsburg Dis
patch.

Old Mother Earth,

The amount of lime salts in water
which drains from districts made up Of
granite and basaits is found by COMPARE
son OF different analysis to be on an aver
age OF about 3.73 parts in 100000 parts Of
water. 1t is further assumed by those
who take this mode Of reckoning the age
of the world that the excess areas OF ig-
neous rocks, taken on an average through
out all geological time, will bear to the ex-
posures OF sedimentary rocks ratio ofone
to nine. From these and other more COM
plicated data 1t has been inferred that the
elimination OF the calcareous matter now
found in all the sedimentary strata must
have been going On through a period of
soc, 000, 600 years! This, therefore, repre-
sents the minimum age of the world.
Biologists also conclude that the forma-
ton OF the Laurentian, Cambrian and
silurian strata occupied period OF about
zoe, DOC, 600 years; the red sandstone, the
carboniferous and the pgcilitic systems
another 200, 0O0, 600 years, the remaining
200 900 years being taken with the
formation Of all other stratas. Thus we
are led to believe that geological time
has been enormously in excess of the
limits urged by certain we'll known ply
sicists, and that it has been ample to al
low for all changes which, on the hypo-
thesis OF evolution, have occurred in the
organic world.-St. Louis Republic.

Here Is just an ordinary study in court
ship. The question has been asked and
answered.
After IL was ali settled he begged her
TO kiss him, but she shook her curls about
her face and said. 81 have told you be-
fore that no man but tine one marry"
"But, my darling, you are going TO
marry me-" he interrupted wildly.
She hastened to soothe him. 81 know,
1 know, Dick. / said SO and expect
will, but you know, dear, how uncertain
am about such things. Besides, think,
II just because / expect to marry a per-
SON / had to let them kiss me, where
should have been by nowf Why, kissed
through, / expect. No, dear; you will
just have to wait about that till it is an
actually done for, sure thing for both OF
us. Now, don't 60 to jumping around,
please
He did jump around, of course, and
made a fool of himself. When he got
quiet she held up her pink finger and
began judicially: "Now, Dick, dear, let's
have it settled. Are you going to be good
and nice and love me and behave as you
can, or are you going right on treating
me like a brute, and must / send you
away?"
81 don't mean to treat you like .
brute, said he, "and II you send me away
shall kill myself"
"Oh, Dick, wish you Wouldn't Let's
talk quiet and sensible. Do you love me
or do you not?"
al love you with all my soul!"
"And not because / am good or nice or
kind or-or anything, but just because
you love me?"
"Just because l love you," he said,
wiping his forehead.
"But, Dick, am good and nice and
kind?" This very softly and sweetly.
"You are everything that is lovely"
he groaned.
And, Dick, when you feel like being
cross at me again, you-you will remem-
Der | am lovely, won't you?"
81 will remember"
All right-run away home now"
Now, what chance has man with such
a woman? asks the Washington Post.
He had half made up his mind to get out
of the whole thing, but-she looked
mighty pretty-not too suddenly. az
will call to- morrow" he said.
Thereat she lifted up her round chin
and remarked: Perhaps will refuse to
see you Tomorrow"
"You will not" he warned.
ooh, yes; / may-you can't tell. II I
do, what will you do? Will you come
again next day." After pause: "Oh,
dearl what shall do il l refuse to see
you tomorrow and you do not come
again next day."
Naturally, he came again every day.

What Heaven VIII BE Like.

The natives of Botocudes, one of the
hottest regions of the globe, believe that
heaven will be a land of cool streams and
shaded groves, entirely devoid of cactus
thorns. All wild desert jewellers die ex-
pecting to awake in a wooded land,
p.entifully supplied with cool, running
water. The paradise of the natives of the
frozen North is land of blazing suns
and warm fires, overhung with pots of
boiling whales blubber. When the Chi
nese and Japanese beggars die in the
streets it is with hope that their future
may be spent feasting at a round table
covered with a yellow cloth.-Phila-

Statistics on Growth,

The year of greatest growth in boys is
the seventeenth; in girls, the fourteenth.
While girls reach full height in their
fifteenth year they acquire full weight at
the age of twenty. Boys are stronger
than girls from birth to the eleventh
year; then girls become superior physic-
ally to the seventeenth year, when the
tables are again turned and remain so.
From November to April children grow
very little and gain no weight; from
April to July they gain in height, but lose
in weight, and from July to November
they increase in weight, but not in

Iasurn - Asasfs OBSTACLES IN shs wsy
OF Mahi.v a. Iaeai Msehis~. y.
The reply to tho question, IL perpetual
motion possibles depends entirely upon
the limitation put upon the term "per-
,etuai motion" II We understand these
words TO mean . machine that would
start Itself, furnish power for doing work
and continue in operation 80 long as re-
quired or until worn out, without the as
sistance of any externsl agency, the
Scientific American thinks we can say
with the utmost confidence perpetual
motion is impossible. II, on the other
hand, we define perpetual motion as
machine dependent for its action upon
the variability of one or more OF the
forces of nature, we may say perpetual
motion is possible. The thermal motor,
in which expansion and contraction are
produced by natural changes Of tempera-
kind. In this machine the changes in
volume in q body are made to store ener-
Ky to be used in continuous regular
work. A perpetual clock has been made
on this principal.
Sun motors of various forms have been
devised, which might be used In eonnec-
ing power continuously. A sun motor OF
sufficient size with a suitable storage sys-
tenn could furnish power the year round
In almost any part of the world; sue
cess being q question OF hours of sun
shine and capacities OF motor and storage
system. OF course, what Is said with re-
gard to the sun motor applies with equal
force to water wheels, wind mills, tide
~ Ax.x al nf
these prime movers will come more and
more into use as time advances and stor-
age systems are perfected.
Still they do not satisfy the seeker for
the ideal perpetual motion. This should
fill the conditions first mentioned but,
as we have already said, this is an impos-
sibility. The first and strongest reason
for making this positive assertion in re-
gard, to the ideal perpetual motion is
found in the fact that never in the his
tory OF man has he been able to make
single atom of matter or create the small
est fraction of unit OF energy.
All the works OF man, of whatever
name or nature, have been constructed OF
materials already in existence, and all
the work done by man and his enginery
has been accomplished by using current
natural forces, such as the gravitation OF
water, the power of the wind and the
heat energy OF the sun, or the stored en-
ergy OF coal and other fuels or chemicals.
Having the command Of some of natures
forces, inventors have sought to circum-
vent natures laws SO as to make water
"run up HILL" to cause masses OF matter
to act alternately in accordance with and
in opposition to the law of gravitation;
in short, to deprive matter OF gravity
while ascending, and to cause it to act
with the full force OF gravity while de-
scending. Chicago Herald.
