New Filling For Thermometers.

A new filling for thermometers to
take the place of quicksilver, which
often solidifies in cold weather, has
been found in tulnol. 1t is extracted
from coal tar. 1t contains absolutely
no water, can stand much lower
temperature than quicksilver with
out freezing and when exposed to
warmth extends with great regular
lty. Besides possessing these admira-
BILE properties, it is very cheap, and,
as 1t Is much lighter than quicksilver,
the tube of the thermometer can be
made much larger than is now usual.
and thus it will not only be much
easier to read the record, but greater
exactitude i'll registration will be Sc
cured. The dark blue color of tulnol
Is another element which will con-
tribute to the ease of reading the

A HYGIENlC HADES.
The sulphurous vapor Baths at Glenwood
Springs, Col.

The Sulphurous Vapor Baths at Glenwood
Springs, Col.
A simple minded old soldier, who
served under Fremont, the Path-find-
er, returned to his native town in the
east good many years ago, and told a
plain, unvarnished tale of the wonders
he had seen in the Yosemite valley and
other wild regions on the Pacific slope.
By simply telling the truth this gray
old fghting-man earned the reputation
of being the biggest liar in all the
country around.
Anyone who travels through the val
ley of the Grand river in western
Colorado, and tells what he saw there,
runs the same risk. What can man
expect who says he took half-hour's
swim in widwinter all unprotected
from bowling snow-storm, and after
ward descended into the bowels of the
earth and took a vapor bath, the raw
Tor cooked materials of which came
straight from Tophet, or thereabouts?
Yet these are the everyday humdrum
incidents in the lives of the people of
Grand River valley.
A black and turbid river flows out
from between frowning cliffs; through
it's icy waters bubble springs of water
hot from the fires below. Sulphurous
fumes are provided for you as you APP
proach the little door in the mountain
side near the river. 1t is a trife dis
appointing to find the gatekeeper seat
ed on cane bottom chair, but after he
has told you few stories you feel that
he is the right man in the right place.
He has tale of man addicted to
the excessive use of tobacco, who went
into this hygienic hades clothed only
in it's vapors, and came out in full suit
of nicotine. Thick doors separate COM
partments, gradually increasing in
temperature, until you are ushered into
a cavern filled with driving vapor
that winds ebout you in steaming
folds. AS your eyes grow used to the
ghostly shifting light you see the
forms of half-naked men, some sitting,
many lying in hollows of the rocks;
they seem to culver in the winding
mists that envelop them like objects in
a mirage.
After the visitor becomes parboiled
he is permitted to return to the door
and cool himself gradually in one COM
partment after another. Resuming
the conventional garb of the tourist,
he looks up once more at the stars, and
is thankful that he went in at the gate
where they charge admission.-Har-
per's Weekly.

The Boston paper goes on to say that
the increase of cotton manufacturing
in the South has been wonderful, and
that section is attracting great attention
on account of it's natural advantages for
making the business profitable. The
prediction is repeated that the Northern
mills will move South or establish
branches there, and leave the manufac-

ern mills.
Not a day passes that we do not see

WHAT AUSTIN is AFTER.

The Atlanta Constitution reproduces
tally interests Austin:
The Boston Journal of Commerce
prints the names, location, capital stock,
number of spindles, looms and cards of
all the cotton mills in the South. The
list makes nearly three columns in fine
type, and embraces about 400 firms.
Our contemporary says:
The large number of concerns en-
gagged in cotton manufacturing in the
South which it shows will no doubt be a
great surprise to many. 1t will be no
ticed that cotton manufacturing has
largely concentrated in the states of
North and South Carolina, and that
they are very close rivals for leadership.
North Carolina has 142 mills, with 691,
DIG spindles, II, 143 looms, 1904 cards.
South Carolina, 60 mills, with 655, 223
spindles, 1910 looms, and 1862 cards;
Georgia, 67 mills, with 536,769 spindles
12,134 looms and 1885 cards. North
Carolina leads in the number of spindles
and cards, while South Carolina is n
close second in the number of spindles,
and first in the number of looms, and
third in the number of mills. Georgia
stands second in the number OF mills,
third in the number of spindles and looms
and second in the number of cards.
The average number of spindles to a
mill in South Carolina and Georgia is
more than double that of North Caro-
lima. South Carolina has three mills
with $4,000 spindes and over-the Pa
colet Manufacturing company, the relzer

Georgia has one-the Eagle and Phenix
