Solid Emery Wheels,

In the production Of solid emery
wheels the best cement that can be en-
ployed is one that binds the emery to-
gether with that degree Of strength
which will resist the centrifugal strain
due to the high speed at which emery
wheels cut best-about 5000 feet speed
per minute. 1t must not soften by frio-
honal heat nor glaze nor burst nor be-
some brittle and break with cold, nor
must it hold the cutting grains until
they are TOO dull to cut nor release
them SO readily as to waste away the
wheel too fast. It must be capable of
being thoroughly mixed evenly with the
grain emery, so that tho wheel may not
have either hard or soft spots and be
out Of balance, and must also be capable
Of being tempered to suit different
kinds of metal or work, Great care and
skill arc required in the matter of Sc
lecting only pure and strong chemicals
for these cements. -Cassier' Magazine

HIS FIRST ATTEMPT.

Bachelors highly Interesting Experience
In the Tribulations of Housekeeping.
''I am passing through novel and ex-
oeedingly interesting, even if not highly
agreeable, experies~He just now, said
young newspaper man at one OF the
down town offices this morning II am
going through the tribulations of the
housekeeping side of marital life, al
though I have never yet led bride to
the chancel rail. Yesterday all my folks
went away to the seashore, leaving only
myself, the youngest of the family, and
my sister, who is next older than me,
to assume the cares of the household.
Neither Of us has had any experience in
this line, and the results bid fair to be
amusing, if nothing more, especially IN
the matter of preparing for breakfast,
as both of us are late sleepers. This
morning the first break occurred,
and thus it happened. The servant il
due at about O'Clock in the morning,
and as I am sound sleeper instructed
her to ring the bell vigorously and not
to go away if she was not very prompt
ly admitted, and also told my sister,
if she heard the bell, to awaken me,
and I would let the girl in. Last night
l was up till o'clock writing, and con-
sequently four hours later was in the
soundest of my slumbers when the ice
man came and left cube Of his wares
on the steps. Just afterward the serv'
ant came and applied for admission. Al
first her vigorous rings on the loud
gong, which is only one flight of START
away from my room, produced no i'm
preston on my morning SAUNDERS, but
she followed my instructions and con
tinued conscientiously to make that bell
startle the whole neighborhood except
myself and sister, whose alarm clock
also did not have the slightest effect OF
driving away Inconsistencies.
cat last was partially aroused so that
the ringing of the bell caused me tc
dream, Of fire enpines. and in few sec-
passed through my reviving brain, and
saw myself running and shouting, and
the engine steaming and the fremen
pursuing their heroic work of rescue.
Then-I suppose her arm was tired
the faithful servant pulled slow, steady
strokes, and instantly my dream
changed, and found myself on a rail
way station going to join the family at
the seaside. Suddenly these visions
were dispelled, and the stern reality of
the occasion was forced upon my I'M
willing mind as I reluctantly jumped
up and removed the bars that hindered
the servants entrance. She was quite
cheerful over the affair and said she
had not been kept waiting for more than
Is minutes. Truly, the way of the head
of the house is pleasant. Washington

How much danger is there to the
pound in wild black bear when you
meet him in his haunts accidentally and
wife of mine host at Oak Lodge, on the
Indian river peninsula (Brevard county,
Fla.), was returning from the beach
alone and armed only with an umbrella
When just a quarter of a mile from this
very porch, she heard the rustling of
some animal coming toward her through
the saw palmettos.
Thinking it must be raocoon, she
quickly picked up chunk of palmetto
wood and held it ready to wback Mr..
Coon over the head the instant he
emerged. All at once, with a mighty
rustling, out stepped big black bear
within six feet of her! The surprise was
mutual and profound Naturally Mrs.
Latham was scared, but not out of her
wits, and she decided that to run would
be to invite pursuit and possibly attack
She stood her ground and said nothing
and the bear rose on his hind legs to get
q better look at her, making two or
three feints in her direction with his
paws.
Feeling that she must do something,
Mrs. Latham pointed her umbrella at
the bear and quickly opened and closed
it two OF three times. "Woofr" said
the bear. Turning about, he plunged
into the palmettos and went crashing
away, while the lady ran homeward as
fast as she could go. SO much for the
Savage and aggressive" disposition of
the black bear. w. 7. Hornaday in st.

THE TOUCAN.
A Queer South American Bird with an Ex-
traordinariIy Large Bill.

large Dill
A queer kind is the toucan. 1t seems
to have been made expressly to take
charge of its huge banana shaped beak,
which, in some species, is fully inches
in length and more than 2 inches in
width-entirely out Of proportion to its
comparatively small body This beak
is the most brilliant possession of the
toucan, being orange and black, scarlet
and yellow or green and red, according
to the species of the bird
Its home is in the wild South Ameri.
can woods, where, mingled with the
screaming Of parrots, macaws and other
tropical birds, is heard it's monotonous
cry, "Tuoano, tucano" from which
its name is probably derived 1t is q
fruit eater, and climbing among the
branches it gathers its food with iti
long beal, whose strength no stem can
resist
The toucan nests in trees, and it is
uncertain whether it excayates its bur-
row or builds in q natural cavity
Nothing more comical can be imagined
than the head Of this creature, with its
sparkling eyes and enormous, gayly col
ored beab, appearing from hollow in
the trunk of some forest monarch. 1t is
said that the young birds are subject to
the attacks of monkeys and birds Of
prey, and that when the parent bird is
alarmed all she has to do is to poke her
head out Of tho aperture leading to the
nest. The assailant, seeing so huge a
bill, fancies an animal of corresponding
size behind it and leaves, without bow
ing or saying farewell
Toucans are sociable birds and go in
large fioclSs They make common cause
against their enemies such as owls and
falcons which they surround and raob
as the rocks do in England. Having
thus no need for protection, they are
noisy and clamorous, like parrots and
monkeys
The plumage is generally black but
the throat is white, tinged with yellow
and commonly edged beneath with red.
The tail is nearly square or moderately
rounded, with the upper feathers red
and the lower scarlet Alterations of
the brighter colors are displayed in tho
feathers Of the throat, the breast and
tie tail.
The bird is kept easily in confne-
ment, and no doubt from early times
many were brought alive to Europe |
Some of its brilliant tints are very fleet |
ing, ard they often leave little or no
trace after death, so that little idaa of |
its beauty can DO obtained from stuffed |

Though ones hair cannot be made II

false hair no longer assumes the form

These false pieces are exceedingly

which is invisible when on the head.
The false pieces come in small fluffy
bangs that cannot be told from one'i

drawn back toward the middle Of the
head. The hair is perfectly natural, and
although the style is suggestive Of the
"pompadour" it has yet no clement Of
harshness about it. For those whose
faces permit them to discard the fringe
this will prove great attraction,
though it allows of q light fringe on the

bandeau. In this we find that the
shorter hairs are waved on the top, 80

MODERN SURGERY.
The Large Part That Absolute Cleanliness
Plays In Its Operations.


There arc three locations, so to speak.
the absolute cleanliness of which must
be above suspicion before the operator is
justified in proceeding to his work.
These are the surgeons hands, his in
struments and the integument covering
the part Of the patients body at which
the operation is about to be performed.
How is the requisite cleanliness in each
case secured? So far as the hands are
concerned, by profuse scPubbing with
nailbrush in soap and hot water, fol-
lowed by thorough drenching in some
nntiseptic solution, as that Of in 1000
of perchloride of mercury. So far as
the instruments are concerned, by ster-
ilizing them-that is, by boiling them
in water, or by passing them through
the fame of q spirit lamp, or placing
them in steam sterilizer, and then,
when the operator is ready to begin, by
putting them into receptacle contain
ing an antiseptic solution-as, for exam
pie, that of carbolic acid Lastly, so
far as the patients integument is con-
cerned, by washing the part first thor
oughly with soap and water having
previously shaved it, if necessary, and
afterward with perchlorfde Of mercu-
ry solution, or, if the part be greasy,
by removing all the greasy material by
scrubbing it with ether.
Without going into further details
these are the cardinal precepts of the
science of operating in the present day.
Of course each wound which in this
manner is made under aseptic condi-
tions, as it is called, is kept aseptic by
the use Of antiseptic dressings until
healing has taken place. The results of
this method of treatment of wounds are
nothing less than wonderful in compar-
ison with those which the earlier sur
geons were able to obtain. What hap
pens after, say, the amputation of a
limb nowadays? The rule is, nothing
nothing, that is to say, beyond the I'M
eventful convalesoenoe of the patient.
The dressings are not touched unless
the temperature and the pulse of the pa
tient indicate, by some disturbance, that
it would be expedient 70 examine the
wound. The temperature and the pulse
are Jne surgeon Buiuo' LIZ odAoo His
cue from them. Nothing can be amiss
in the wound if these remain normal,
and thus it follows that large wound,
such as that following an amputation,
heals soundly from first to last without
any suppuration. What contrast with
that which obtained in former days
Suppuration was then thought to be ar
indispensable part Of the healthy proc
ess of healing. In the present time, OIL
the contrary, a surgeon is held to have
failed in his practice of the principles o.
surgical cleanliness if, in wounds orig
inally aseptic, suppuration occurs. -

''That is impossible, Joe" said Mrs.

trouble he came down and was duly
presented.

The Interesting Results of the Study of a

The young man who has had the
priceless experience of self abandonment
to some happily chosen point was well
illustrated in a man knew, writes G..
Stanley Hall in The Forum. With the
dignity and sense Of fnality Of the
American senior year quick within him
his first teacher in Germany told him
to study experimentally one Of the II
muscles of frogs leg. The mild dis
sipation of somewhat too prolonged
general culture, aided by some taste for
breezy philosophic speculation, almost
diverted him from so mean an object.
But as he progressed he found that he
must know in more minute and prac-
tical way than before--in a way that
made previous knowledge seem unreal
certain definite points in electricity,
chemistry, mechanics, physiology, ETC.,
and bring them to bear in fruitful rela-
ton to each other. AS the winter pro-
ceeded the history of previous views
was studied and broader bioloAfcal re-
lations seen, and as the summer waned
and a second year was begun in the
study of this tiny muscle it was seen
that its laws are the same in frogs and
men; that just such contractile tissue
had done all that man had accomplish
ed in the world, and that muscles are
the only organs of the will. AS the
work went on many of the mysteries of
the universe seemed to enter in his
theme. In the study of this minute OBJ
ject he gradually passed from the atti-
tude of Peter Bell, of whom the poet
