commenting on this strange conduct
of the incandescent bulb, says:
''If ever phenomenon was full Of
caprice, certainly this one is, for at
times in following out the same condj-
tions that have been acted upon previ-
ously no results whatever were pro.
duced. The experiment again has
been failure when tried at different
locations, three or four miles apart,
with the same lamp in use and taking
precautions to carefully insulate the
experimenter from possible contact
with the earth.
Certain persons seem unable to call
forth vacuo after repeated attempts.
The results are also modified by differ
ent kinds and sizes Of lamps the SMALL
er bulbs appearing to give the best re-
suits"
In all Of the experiments which were
successful the glow appeared to be di-
rectly proportioned to the speed with
which the lamp was moved and the dis
tance Of such movements OF course,
limit Of speed Is soon reached above
which 1t is impossible to proceed by
manual power. The glow does not at
feet the flament at all, and there arc
NO peculiar sensations felt In the hands.
A slight cracking sound is at times mo-
ticeable.

SOME HOME REMEDIES.

For a bee sting, make q paste OF
earth and water. Cover the stung
place with it, bind 1t on and 1t will
soon give relief.
WHEN felon first begins to appear
cut off the end of lemon, put the dn-
ger In 1t and keep it there as long as 1t
can be borne.
For sore throat, try a frequent
gargle Of salt and water. If little is
swallowed 1t will allay the irritation,
cleanse the throat and do no harm.
For stains on the hands nothing is
better than salt moistened with lemon
Juice. Rub the spots we'll with the
mixture, then wash off in clean water.
IT is said that q good remedy for
strengthening and clearing the voice
is to beat the white of an egg with the
juice of lemon and sweeten 1t well
with sugar and use as needed.
To CURE round shoulders, sleep per-
fectly horizontal-that is, without any
bolster or pillow. The habit can easily
be acquired of sleeping thus, and the
round shoulders will soon be straight
ened.
For q cough, boil an ounce Of whole
flaxseed in pint of water, strain and
add little honey, the Juice Of two
lemons and an ounce of rock candy,
Stir together and boil . few minutes
Drink hot.

COOKING BY STEAM.

Food Rendered Moro Paiatabie and d
Some Cases More Nutritious.
Some claim that food cooked by
steam Is more nutritious and whole-
some than cooked in any other man.
ner. While not agreeing exactly with
this statement, do think that many
dishes are moro palatable when cooked
by steam. In the steam cooker, which
I have tried and found satisfactory,
there is a perforated disk which fits
into the kettle in three different posi-
tions; this divides the space into u
below, n below, or " below the disk,
according to It's position. There is also
an extension tin top, much like an or
dinary steamer, to be used when cook
ing large quantities or many kinds Mt
once. There is pipe down one side
bf the kettle, through which the super
fluous steam is discharged into the
stove. No odor from the cooking food
escapes into the room, for the joint be-
tween the kettle and cover is sealed
with water.
The steamer Is large enough for .
turkey, If the bottom Of the tin exten.
sion is removed, which can be done. For
an average family potatoes and pud.
ding may be cooked in the kettle with
out the tin extension. Dumplings or
a cottage pudding will cook in twenty
minutes II the water in the lower com.
partment is boiling when they arc
placed In 1t. Very rich puddings con.
tanning suet ETC., require more time.
Potatoes will cook in thirty minutes,
and are always nice and meaty. Bread
and raised biscuit are always nice
when cooked by steam, there being alb
soluteiy no crust at all, but bread
thus cooked should be eaten warm, as
It does not keep moist and tender like
that baked in the ordinary way. Rice,
oatmeal and the like are cooked to
perfection by steam. You do not have
to stir them to keep them from burn.
ing, and every kernel is cooked tender
without losing its shape. The many
things that can be cooked in a steam
cooker, from beef tea to first pre-
MUM canned fruit, cannot be enumer.
ated here; but persons procuring a
steam cooker, l am sure, will pro-
nounce it "household convenience.

Pleasant Entertainment.

A Dickens evening was given lately
at an entertainment for charity. 1t
consisted Of tableaux, as Nell and her
grandfather, the Dombey children on
the seashore, Miss Haviham, ETC., and
dialogues taken literally from the nov
els. These were Mrs. Nickleby and
Kate with the mad gentleman, Dick
Swiveller and the marchioness, and
David, Mrs. Dick and Miss Trotwood.
This list could be extended almost in
definitely, and, even with the rawest
of amateur actors, the gay fun of some
of these scenes would go well. 1t is to
be doubted whether Dickens pathos
might not better be left to trained
actors, or, as was done here, only sug-
gested by tableaux.

and make trouble eventually. Inven-
tors have therefore endeavored to pro-
duce o chain without welding. This
is now successfully done in Birming-
ham, England; and any skillful whit
tier who has ever made . wooden
chain from pine stick can easily un-
derstand the operation.
The steel is first drawn out In q bar
90 shaped that, seen endwIse. it looks
like an X. It is then fed through q
series Of punching machines, which
take bites out of the edges and center
and trim off the corners. The Anal
step Is side pressure on each link,
which forces together the studs left
inside. Our diagrams show only half
dozen of the eight or nine stages
through which the bar goes, but tho
imagination can suggest the others-
Besides increasing the average strength
Of chains about 8s per cent, this meth-
cd Of manufacture leaves the chemical
quality Of the steel unaffected by heat
which conduces still further to the
longevity of the chain

LIGHTHOUSE MAGGIE,

Little Gifi Who lives Far Away from
Other Children.
Down In Newark bay, on the coast
OF the Atlantic, lives q little girl
eleven years old whose entire life has
been spent out at sea. Her name Ia
Maggie Wood. aud her home is the big
stone lighthouse one sees when at
Mariners harbor, Staten Island, or
sailing down the bay.
This girl lives away from oil other
children; her chief pastime Is In
Watching the boats pass, and IN hear
Ing the sounds which come across the
waves, On clear days In summer,
standing out on the stone pier Of the
lighthouse, she can bear the children
OF the picnic excursions sing as they
go down the bay. In winter she wraps
up warmly and stands as far ont MS the
rough winds will allow and waves her
apron to the sailors on the boats who
wave q reply back. Sometimes they
blow their steam whistles TOR her, and
sometimes, for they know how she
loves music, they shout sea songs or
blow upon flute.
Every day Maggie's aunt and uncle,
with whom she lives, see that she has
her regular lessons; she has real school
books which her uncle brings home on
his rare visits to the city. She is not
at all an unlearned child. She draws
and paints q little, and her favorite
work is to sketch the old stone light
house.
As soon as school hours are over
Maggie puts on her cloak, draws its
little hood up over her hend and hur-
ries out to play upon the pier. She has
loo feet Of stone platform for play

The Harmful Dotted Veil.

The injurious effect on the eyes
caused by wearing dotted wells is IN
old warning which has been sounded
to no purpose, and the fact that ocu-
lists are growing rich under this reign
Of fashion does not alarm the wearers
of this attractive bit of feminine vani-
ty. The dots are larger or smaller,
closer together or farther apart, as
they are more or less becoming, while
the possibility of impaired cyesight is
left entirely out of consideration. 1t
has been discovered lately that the dots
are not their only harmful quality.
There is some substance used in stiffen-
ing or coloring the net which is pois-
onous if it chances to find its way into
the eve.
