VIII Il Tree Live Forever.

What do you think of The idea ad-
vanced by some prominent botanist
that tree, providing it meets with
no accident, will live forever? De
Candolle, an eminent French author
ity, says: "Trees are not subject to
death, and, barring accidents and
ravages of insects, will continue to
live on indefinitely" Gray, the
noted botanist, also indorses the
theory that, inasmuch as trees an
nually renew their youth, they are
virtually immortal. His exact Ian
guage is as follows: 1.-The old con-
trail part of the trunk may decay, but
this is OF little moment so long as
new layers are regularly formed at
the circumference. The tree sur
wives, and it would be difficult for
science to show that it is liable to
death from old age in any proper
sense of that term"

WHY SHOULD CATTLE STARVE.
The Mild Cow Seems to Have an Omni-
verous Appetite.

The Mild-C Cow Seems to Have an Omni-
verous Appetite.
Most people are probably of the
opinion that the goat and the ostrich
rank highest as omniverous animals
1t is not so generally known, how
ever, that a COW takes often very
curious things into her stomach
The United States department of
agriculture gave space in it's exhibits
in the government building to col
lection of various objects which have
been taken from the stomachs of cat
tie killed for beef at the stockyards
The most amazing of these objects is
the iron tooth of huge hay rake,
such as is drawn by two horses upon
the Western prairies. This iron
tooth is curved, and is four feet
eight inches long, by about quarter
of an inch thick. 1t was taken from
the stomach of Texas steer, which
was to all external appearances in
the best of health when killed.
From the stomach of another Texas
steer was taken an iron bolt thirteen
and half inches long by five-eighths
of an inch thick. In rather small
COW were found objects as follows:
One masonic emblem, one dime,
one copper cent, two watch rings,
one finger ring and q number of
stones. In another cows stomach
were found one silver dollar, one silver
watch chain, one brass hair-pin,
door-knob and seven nails or pieces
of nails. One of the most curious
features of this remarkable collection
is q lot of twcnty-three hair balls.
These were all found in the stomach
of Texas COW which was butch
cred at the Chicago stock yards
Only a short time ago. When
she was killed the animal was
in good health but small. She
weighed when dressed for beef
$50 pounds. These hair balls are
each perfectly solid, hard, circular
mass The largest one is five inches
in diameter, and the smallest about
an inch and a half. The balls are
formed by the animal licking itself.
The hair comes off and adheres to
the tongue. 1t is then swallowed.
and once in the stomach is rolled up
and compressed into the globular
mass described

Their Hopeless Ugliness as an Article
of Apparel.
Trousers appear to have been in
troduced into Rome at compare
lively late period ard as part of the
military uniform. They are worn by
the Roman soldiers represented on
Trajan's column, as well as by bar
barians. The Greeks had mover
adopted them. With their instinc-
tive sense of beauty they had recog-
nized that these are the only gar
ments that cannot possibly be made
graceful.
A sleeve may become a part of the
drapery of figure, a trouser leg is
more obstinate in it's ugliness. If
tight it bags at the knees on the
third wearing. Yet this is perhaps
its least Objectionable shape. If
somewhat loose it takes petty and
meaningless folds Some oriental
nations have tried to disguise it as a
skirt, but the result is not entirely
satisfactory. If the trousers do not
appear to give freedom to the leg
they have lost their principle merit.
Compromise, which is the life Of
politics, is the death of art, which
should always struggle after an ideal.

Plenty OF Them About. But More Of
Their Subjects.
1t would be very pleasant to be-
lieve that the school-master was so
generally abroad that common sense
had become species of common
property. A happy assurance that
everybody knows SO much about
everything that nobody needs any
special oversight on care, and that in
fact everybody would be happier and
general affairs much better conducted
IL everything was just let alone,
would certainly be very comforta-
BILE doctrine.
However, this halcyon condition
does not seem to have reached us
yet, says the Railway World. In
stong disproof comes the story that
when an electric pole fell short
time ago in CITY Hall park in New
York the utmost vigilance and activ-
ity of the police were r., uired to
prevent the casual observes of the
accident from touching the wires.
Why any man aliT should desire to
find out by exper.men whether the
wire was alive under such circum-
stances, offers a problem in curiosity
hard to solve.
The colored man who cheerfully
declared to the bystanders that he
could easily keep ahead of an APP
preaching train, and briskly walked
along the track to prove his ability,
was only happy in the fact that his
death was instantaneous. A recent
news item relates that boy laid a
bet of ten cents that he could board
moving train, and lost his life
with his money. With the general
diffusion of knowledge such instances
seem almost incredible, and yet they
exhibit neither greater ignorance
nor recklessness than another recent
incident.
Four men, excursionists. presuma-
bly, seeking information and recrea-
ton in travel amused themselves by
pulling bell and stopping rail-
way train. 1t is difficult to believe
that they could possibly be ignorant
of the danger to which they might
be exposing themselves and others
by such insane folly, and the only
agreeable deduction to be drawn
from the incident is that the fines
imposed upon the culprits were suf-
fcient to deter them and their silly
compeers from attempting such hui
morous conceits in the future

MELTING IRON IN WATER.
An Electric Experiment Which Opens tip
Large Possibilities.

An Electric Experiments which Opens Tip
| Large Possibilities.
Among recent electrical expert
ments made on either side Of the At
lantic, that OF melting bar of iron
immersed in cold water has perhaps
excited more popular interest than
any other.
Electricity gives the process as
follows: The apparatus used is ves-
sci of glass or porcelain, provided
with a sheet of lead electrode, con-
nected to the positive pole of a con-
tinuous current generator: the YES
sci contains sulphuric acid and
water. A flexible cable from the
negative pole is connected to
strong pair of pliers with insulated
handles Taking in the pliers
piece of me- al of any kind, iron, for
instance, and immersing it in the
calculated water, the liquid is seen
Immediately in ebullition near the
iron rod or plate. which latter is
rapidly heated and brought to
dazzling white in few secon q and
soon begins to melt in b. like
drops. The heating is 7 4uced SO
quickly locally that neither the
water nor the body of the metal rod
have time to become hot
So rapid an evolution of heat nee
essarily means q tremendously high
temperature. In very short time
as high as 1000 degrees Fahrenheit
have been developed, which is proven
by using carbon rod instead of
metal one, when, in a few moments,
amorphous carbon fragments are
seen dropping off. The inventors
claim to have attained, with large
currents, the enormously high tenn
perature of $4,000 degrees Fahren-
heit, or nearly five times hotter than
molten iron.
The first suggestion for the practi-
cal utilization of the discovery was
for welding purposes, to which it is
evidently particularly well adapted.
Another application to which the ex-
periments would seem to lead toward
is the tempering of one edge or one
extremity only of steel-cutting tools.
The hardening Of the skin surface of
large pieces of metal, such as armor
plates, offers another inviting field.
Krupp, it is stated, is already trying
this new method of electric heating
for tempering the superficial surface
of large guns.
