A SONG'oF THE WORLD.

"World amt what it useter be-" you'll hear
feller say
As he crosses of his legs an heaves asigh
But it happens, she's the best world that she's
ever been to-day.
An she's whirln' like 40 round the sky
The stores give bigger measure;
The mines. a sight o. treasure;
There's more o. love an pleasure
In the land.
The skies is mostly sunny;
You jingle more O. money.
An the brown bees bring their honey
To your hand
'World amt what it useter be-" OF course
it amt. because
It's cuttin' out newer kind o way.
1t amt got time to worry bout the kind o
world it was.
For it keeps gittin' happy on the way
Brighter blossoms twinin';
Brighter suns a-shinin'
What's the use in pinin'
An whinin' through the land?
Skies is mostly sunny;
You jingle more o money,
An the brown bees bring their honey
To your hand

SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL

An electric cloth cutter is new.
There is an electric rock breaker.
A steam bicycle is German inven-
ton.
The breaking strain Of an inch rope
is 5000 pounds.
People eat much more bread in win
ter than in summer.
Butterflies regularly migrate north
and south like birds.
The cost of running locomotive
year is estimated to be about $4,000.
Human blood is composed of II. 8
parts of water, 6.2 of albumen, IA. l
of coloring matter, and 1.9 of saline.
A new system, by which smokeless
combustion of coal is rendered possi-
BILE, has been adopted by the North
German Lloyd and tie Hamburg
American Packet companies.
A strange fact has arisen in connec-
ton with long distance telephony
women have great difficulty in making
themselves understood. 1t is said the
high notes of women's voices, while all
right ON short lines, do not carry well
for long distances.
A German has taken out a-patent for
producing varnish from linseed oil by
means of an electric current. The oil,
after being purified in a proper man
ner, is thoroughly mixed and agitated
with sulphuric acid and water and sub
iected to the action of an electric cur
rent for two or three hours, so that the
oxygen produced in the nascent state
by the passage of the current converts
the oil into varnish. The varnish so
produced is said to he almost colorless
and perfectly free from all mineral or
metallic admixtures or impurities.
The electric locomotive which the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany has secured for tie purpose of
hauling passenger cars through the
Baltimore Tunnel, is capable of haul
ing the heaviest trains, weighing 1900

tunnel under the city, distance of
three miles. The weight of the loco
motive is $50, 900 pounds; its length
trife over fifty feet; +; the height is
fourteen feet three inches and the ex-
treme- width nine feet, 81 inches. 1t
is claimed that possible speed of
fifty miles an hour can be attained by
this locomotive.
With the ophthalmoscope and oph-
thalmometer there are very few prob
lens with regard to the functions and
diseases of the human eye that cannot
be determined by an expert in very
few moments of time 1t may safely
be asserted that there is no department
of knowledge of the functions and dis
eases of the human body that is so adj
vanced as that of ophthalmologv, and
this mas been the work of the civiliZs
tion of the nineteenth century. With
the ophthalmoscope the circular open
ing the IRIS, which we call the pupil,
is made window looking in upon n
scarlet picture, in the center of which
is II beautiful white moon-like disk,
over which radiate vessels pulsating
with the blood constantly pumped in
by the heart. The darker returning
current i'll the veins is also seen, while
the varying and almost numberless
changes made by diseases are noted by
the practised eye, and tell n tale of
warning and often of woe.
