SECRETARY FOSTERS CHAIR.


How Carefully the Government Looks
After Things of Small Value.
1t is the popular impression that the
smaller affairs of government are very
loosely run, and that in any of the de-
partments are opportunities for fat
pickings by any man not over scrupu-
lous.
AS evidence of the incorrectness of
this theory one of the treasury de-
partment employees relates an incident
of the first day of Mr.. Carlisle's adj
ministration. Secretary Foster had
occupied one chair at his desk for a
long time, and, as men will, had be-
come attached to it. He expressed a
desire to take it with him.
Certainly" said his successor,
take it along"
1t was more easily said than done.
First an order was necessary; then
the chair was to be accounted for to
the official who has such matters in
charge; then it was to be paid for.
1t was a valueess piece of furniture.
AS short way out of the difficulty
the appraiser was sent for. He eyed
the wreck over and over and said it
might be worth 81 to anybody who
wanted it very much.
"All right said the secretary. Then
he put his hand in his pocket, pulled
out a So bill, paid the official and pre-
sented the chair to his predecessor.

bad Case of Epilepsy.
Charles II. Sawyer, n young man 10
wears of age, is minus piece OF his
skull about three inches in diameter
A thin plato of aluminium has taken
the place of that part OF the skull
which Is missing.
Seventeen years ago Sawyer, while
attending dance in Chill, became
involved in an alteration with ma
tive, and was struck on the head with
q wagon spoke. He was treated by
physician, who diagnosed the injury
as merely slight conclusion of the
brain, and in day or two the. patient
was discharged as cursd. Ever since
that time at intervals Sawyer was
subject to epileptic fits, but physicians
who were consulted were unable to
discover the true cause of the trouble
until lately
AT the San Francisco city hospital
DIR. Mclean, learning Of the
blow the man received years ago,
made an incision of the scalp and
found an extensive fracture, which
had undoubtedly resulted when
Sawyer was hit on the head in Chill
A small circular piece of bone half an
inch in diameter was taken out to re-
lieve the pressure on the brain, and
the patient put to bed to await de-
velopments. Soon after another fit oc-
Cured, and another piece of bone vas
removed. The same result folIl,yed
the second operation, and then It was
determined to effect n lasting remedy.
So Sawyer underwent still another
operation, and since then no evidence
of a return of the afilicsion has been
manifested.
Instead of placing silver or gold
plate over the cavity, DR.. Mclean con-
cluded that plate made of alu-
minum, because of its extreme light
ness, would be best, and one as thin
as paper, and perhaps as light, was
used. There is no further weight on
the brain at that point. and since the
last operation Sawyer has been in al
most perfect health, and it is thought
by surgeons epilepsy will trouble hi IN
no more.

The Best PIa Step.

Dampen a piece of flannel with
Chamberlain Pain Balm and bind il
on over the seat of pain. 1t is better
than any plaster. When the lungs are
sore such an application on the chest
and another on the back, between the
shoulder blades will often prevent
pneumonia. There is nothing so good
for lame back or a pain in the side.
A sore throat can nearly always be
cured in one night by applying flannel
bandage dampened with Pain Balm.

If the Invention Fails in One Way It

If the Invention Fails in One Way It
Will Act Ia Another
An English mechanical genius has
devised a method of indicating and
stopping leak b. the use of COM
pressed air. He divides the ship into
air-tight compartments, fitted with
doors provided with packing material
and connected By tubes with room
on deck called the switch room" In
this room is 4 junction chest supplied
with compressed air from fixed or
portable compressors, and So arranged
that the air can be delivered to any of
the compartments. Other tubes lead
from the compartments, from which
water can be forced out when required,
and electric indicators are also con-
nected with the switch room to indi-
cate the accumulation of water in any
of the compartments. Should the
vessel spring Leak the indicator
will show which compartment is af-
fected, so that the compressed air may
be forced in to drive the water out
The invention also includes the
means for indicating the position of
sunken ship, this being accomplished
by means of a buoy connected to a
coil of rope To re1oat the vessel a
diver can descend and connect the
junction chest with the various com
partments so that by supplying com
pressed air the water will be elected
and the vessel floated. Other objects
OF the invention are the prevention
of fire and means for extinguishing
the same, and also for ventilating the
cargo.
