Boston has a milk laboratory where in
fants' food is prepared according to the
physicians prescription as accurately as
drug prescriptions are filled at pharmacy.
The milk comes from a herd of cows,
carefully selected as to breed and systemat-
ically fed, so that the milk will have as
nearly as possible an unvarying percentage.
The milking is done in vessels of glass,
kept eXqustely clean, is cooled rapidly and
taken to the laboratory. There the air is
changed and kept pure by a large fan
that keeps up a constant outward cur
rent of air" The room is lined with
white tiles, and, by means of a separator,
an mvarying rs per cent cream can in a
short time be obtained from the milk. A
large sterlizer, into which steam can be
introduced, exposes the milk to high or
low temperature according to requirement.
The elements used to make up the pre-
scription are then a pure, clean-skimmed
milk cream of "stable percentage" and
sugar obtained from milk-sugar and distill-
ed water. The cost of food prepared in
this way is said to be very moderate, and
after the physicians prescription is filled
all that the nurse has to do is to warm ii
before giving it to the baby.

DEATH OF FRANK REED.

Frank Reed died Wednesday evening at
his home on Reed hill, after an illness of
about five days. His age was G3 years.
Mr.. Reed was a carpenter and builder by
trade. and was lifelong resident of Brat
tleboro, with the exception of few years
which he spent in New York state. He
was the son of Henry and Mary Qiscom)
Reed of this place He was married AZ
years ago to Lydia NJ. Howe of West Do
yer, who survives him, with one daughter,
Hattie M. Reed. The place where Mr..
Reed lived was owned by his father and
his grandfather, and it was from this fam
ily that the locality took its familiar name
of Reed hill
The cause of Mr.. Reeds death was
shock of paralysis which he sustained Sat
urday morning. One side was affected,
and he remained conscious until Wednes-
day morning. The circumstances under
which Mr.. Reed experienced the shock
have caused great deal of talk, much that
has been reported, however, being eXag-
gerated. Charles Berry recently moved
from one of Mr.. Reeds houses to Clark
street. He had paid his rent to Oct. and
retained the keys, a few articles not having
been removed from the house. Mr. Reed
called upon him Saturday morning, and an
alteration between the two men took place,
during which Mr.. Reed struck Berry and
attempted to seize him by the throat. Mr.,
Berry pushed him back and he fell, stricken
with paralysis.
Frank Reed possessed unfortunate eecen-
tricities of temper which were probably a
greater source of trouble to him than to
those with whom he was brought into col
lision, but with these he had good qualities,
too often overlooked, which will cause him
to be pleasantly remembered by those who
knew him intimately,

made of thirteen separate pieces of metal,
exclusive Of the complies carriage. II con-
sists of central tube over which are
shrunk bands or jackets of various shapes.
The joints are 50 exactly matched that the
gun appears to be hut one piece of metal.
Its total length is nearly 20 feet, its diam
cter at the breech Is an inch more than four
feet aud it taprrS to a thickness of p
inches al the muZzlc. When finished the
gun will weigh nearly lbs, 900 pounds.
1t requires more than quarter of ton
of powder to load this rifle for one dis
charge, but that quantity is expected TO
hurl shell weighing 100 pounds dis
lance of II or Is miles at the extraordinary
velocity OF POO feet per second. Close at
hand this shot would penetrate 265 inches
of solid steel and at a distance of IA mile
and half from the gun (Which is about as
far as such guns can be sighted and fired
with accuracy in marine warfare) the shot
would still have vitality sufficient TO
smash through the sides of ship covered
with p inches of steel armor Very few
such ships are ahoat.
This is the first of twelve such guns that
are intended for the new battle-ships, and
with three Others will find place in the
turrets of the Oregon, now building on the
Pacific coast. When finished its construc-
ton will have occupied six months, but
better time can be made with the other
