6( on 'ICarbonlZatiOn of Wool"
The object is to rid wool of burs.
The process seems TO be tedious
and not likely to leave the wool
either clean or uniojured. Forty
wears ago lived near an old farm
err cotton planter, who owned a
small flock of sheep from whose
wool I've had manufactured the
clothing and bed covering for the
family. On his farm there grew
an immense quantity of cookie burs,
The Sleeps wool was perfectly
matted with them every year. lie
told me thai he ginned them out
"a he did the seed from cotton.
The breast the gin must be raised,
so as to let the teeth of the saws
lust come through the ribs. In TINS
way they would catch few lbers
of the wood at a time and draw
them away from the burs, when the
revolving brush would flrt them
into the clint room.' When the
burs we're Thus relieved they would
fall under the gin as cotton seed
does. The wool thus freed from
the burs was in the best possible
condition for csrding. WILLIAMS

WHAT A MAN rs MADE OF.

According to a French chemist,
man, from a chemical point OF view,
consists of thirteen elements, five
of them gases and eight solids.
Submitting to chemical analysis 81
man of the average Of 154 pounds
we find that he is largely composed
of oxygen, which is IN state OF
extreme compression; in fact man
Weighing 154 pounds has 81
pounds Of compressed oxygen IN
his makeup. The volume of this
at an ordinary temperature, If freed,
would exceed $50 cubic feet. The
weight of the hydrogen is only 10
pounds, but we're this in a free
state. at temperature of rs de-
grees, it would occupy a space
equal to $500 cubic feet. The 9th
er three gases are: Nitrogen, near
w a pounds; chlorine, about 70
ounces: and huerinP, 81 ounces. OF
the so ids, carbon stands at the
head Of the metalloids, there being
about 81 pounds. Next comes phos-
phorus, rs ounces, and sulphur 3
ounces. The most abundant metal
is calcium, more than 3 pounds :;
next potassium, 2 ounces sodium,
) ounces, and iron, / ounce. The
various combinations which the
chemist can form of these metals
and metaloids are almost innu-
merahle.

The speech of Senator Aldrich simply
showed that the United States have proflted
by the advance OF civilization and in spite OF
the tariff; TINT q favorable season has brought
abundant crops TO the farmer; that bad sea.
son in Europe has made a market for these
crops: that improved machinery here as else
where has increased the rewards of labor and
decreased the cost Of living, and, finally, thai
by the reduction Of tariff taxes In foreign
countries commerce has been stimulated te
tho advantage OF both ourselves and our neigh.
bors.-Eow York World.
All, yes. But We thought that the
United States had not profited by the
advance of civilization; that good crops
had not been of any benefit to the
farmer; that no new markets for those
crops had been found; that the rewards
of labor or wages had not increased
that the cost of living had not fallen
that commerce had not been stimulated
that neither ourselves nor any one else
had reaped any advantages in the last
two years. All these things are practi
cally asserted by the Democratic plat
form, and The World has Joined in the
general calamity howl, bowling yer,
often the loudest of all. Mr.. Cleveland
repeated them in his notification speech
The question now is, Shall these Sian
derers, who hive neglected no opportu
nifty to bear false witness against theil
own country and fellow citizens, be held
responsible or not? The anxiety of The
World to explain the causes of our won
derful prosperity is very easily account
ed for under these circumstances.

Yesterday afternoon Howard Stats,
grocer, Ninth tand Kitkwood. came
Into the Republican office with about
a third part OF what the green rind
purported to be watermelon, but
what the inside fixlnRs purported to
be both pumpkin and watermelon. In
laying IL down on our table Mr.. Stats
asked II we had ever heard OF Peck
watermelon. We said We had heard o
good deal about Peck within the last
few days.an we hoped the melon was
as honest as Peck was
But 1t was a queer production. Part
OF the inside looked like pumpkin
had seed like pumpkin, and smeliet
like pumpkin, but tasted like the
sweetest kind OF watermelon. Mr.
Stats says no purchased 1t from Johr
Diver of Pennsgrove, and out OF a lo
of 40 he had found two other meloni
with this same peculiarties. Tho sup
position Is that pumpkins and meloni
have been growing In the same lot ant
they have got slightly mixed.
