BICYCLE GUNS.
Another Physical Peculiarly Said
TO BE Due to the Wheel.

new 1Ork HeraIu.
Bicycle riding and poor teeth are
about the last two subjects one would
place together, but that an overload
ness for indulgence in exercise upon
the wheel is developing diseased
condition OF the gums and teeth can
be testified to by many unfortunate
victims and their dentists.
1t is caused by the extra effort neces.
sary in ascending hills or in running
races, and the short, quick breaths of
cold air that strike the overheated
gums through the open mouth develop
a congestion of those parts. The face
swells as with an ordinary toothache,
pus forms around the teeth and loos-
ems them, and in many cases leads
to their extraction later, and the pain
is equal to having all ones teeth
uIcerating at once.
A prominent dentist stated when
interviewed upon the subject, that he
had had several cases of that kind.
" 1t comes" he said, "from an alb
normal current of air, from fast riding,
striking the gums, and if the popular
ity OF the bicycle continues it will de-
velop a new feature in dentistry. At
a private meeting of several dentists
the other evening we found upon
comparing notes that these cases are
increasing. The only preventive is a
difficult one to follow, and that is al
ways ride with the mouth closed. The
same effect, however is caused by an
unnatural draft of air, as, for instance,
sitting in front of an electric machine
for long period. l have had several
cases OF that nature from hotel stew
ards and their assistants, whose
offices are generally situated in the
basement, where change OF air can
be brought about by artificial means.

If it had happened at home prob
ably the man wouldn't have minded
it so much, but it all took place in
a street car. SAYS the Rochester
N. " Herald. The man and his
wife, SO far as could be gathered
from the conversation, had been
down town together making some
purchases. When it came to count
ing up on the car one parcel was
missing. The parcel had been
given to the husband to carry and
he couldn't remember what he had
done with it except that he had
possibly left it somewhere"
Well, of all men," she ex-
claimed, Strengthening back and
taking a full breath, which threat
ened to come again in a manner
that he wouldn't fancy. 81 do be-
lieve you'd lose your head if it

anything, if a sixteen-year-old did
trick like that he ought to get a

"There's no need of tellin' half
the town about it," he ventured.
The other passengers were looking
at him. Some appeared sympa.
thetic, others were amused, and all
were interested.
Il should think you would be
ashamed to have people hear it,"
she said with a sour smile, which
was entirely an effort. I-should
-think-you-would. Go and
pay money for something and then
walk right off and leave it. If you
don't need somebody to take care
of you I miss my guess"
He sighed deeply and turned
toward the back platform, where
the conductor stood grinning at
him. Then he arose and started
out of the car.
See here, where are you CO.
ing?" she demanded.
He neither answered nor turned
around. Once outside he leaned
with his back against the door.
What's the matter with your
wife?" asked the conductor.
"Oh, she's hollerin' because l

Something About Dtamonds.

The ruby mirrors the flame of fire,
the sapphire reflects the blue of the
heavens, the emerald pictures the
depth OF the sea, but the diamond is a
dewdrop laden with sunbeams, the
most poetic creation of an organic ma
ture. Every moment it flashes a new
color now blue, now red, now royal
purple, now golden yellow, says Home
and Country.
In the rough-that is, just as the
stone has been washed out of the clay
and broken loose from the ore-a dia-
mond presents the appearance OF a
crystal pebble, somewhat pointed at
each end. 1t usually appears TO be of
brownish hue but now and again II
ray of light will seem to leap from the
very heart of the stone. From this
rough form Of the gem the diamond
cutter decides what the shape of the
finished jewel it to be. 1t should be
the aim of the diamond cutter to pre-
serve this octahedral character OF the
gem. To accomplish this the rough
stone is first split or Clipped.
The operation is . most difficult
one, requiring an insight into the
character of each individual stone.
There are hardly two gems that can
be treated in precisely similar man.

individuality and must be treated &C.

plished by fixing the gem in a block
of cement, after which the angles
must be split off in accordance with
the direction of the capitalization.
Flaws are also taken out in this oper-
alton and the diamond given its future

Historic Lancaster House.

On Lewis river, in Western WASH
ington, the Lancaster farm lies. This
old farm, beside being historic as the
home of Columbia Lancaster, still
shows the trails of the old Hudson
Bay Company's fur dealers. The
house was built by Mr.. Lancaster
after his return from Congress. 1t is
most attractive and we'll built, and
when first erected it was celebrated as
the finest residence in the whole terri
tory of Washington. The large pill
Jared porches extending from top to
bottom show how the builders ideas
OF comfort were formed during his ex-
perience at the national capital. On
the floor of the parlor is finely-pre-
served carpet, of the oldest fashion
1t is double width Brussels, with
pattern in bright red fully six feet
long. The carpet was bought as a
wedding present for Mrs. Lancaster,
and imported from London. The
furniture or most OF it, is old fashioned
mahogany, with hair-cloth seats, and
extremely quaint in design. All this
furniture and carpet were brought
across the plains by OK teams in 1S49,
and is all good for SO years or more
service.
In the garnet of this old house is
piled great stacks of old books and
public documents, accumulated by
Judge Lancaster while delegate to
congress. Much valuable historical
material is here being wasted on the
moths and dust of farm dwelling.
Some of the books have the original
wrappings upon them as they were
" franked" by the government to Judge
Lancaster for distribution among the
constituents.

All there was in resumption Of specie
payment was that the custom house
house officers received all greenbacks for
import duties the same as gold. From
1862 to 1879 part of the greenbacks
were not receivable by custom house
officers for duties or imports. Think
OF a great natlsn issuing it's promises to
pay and refusing to receive those prom
ises to pay for dues to itself.
The state Of Venice, only a little city
at the time, organized the bank of Ven
Ice in the latter part Of the twelfth cen
tury and the bank, that is the state Of
Venice, borrowed money, gold and silver
OF the people and gave them credits, but
agree to ever pay back the gold and
silver. Those credits were legal tender
for all debts. They were receivable by
the government for all dues to the gov
ernment. They were the principal me-
dunn Of exchange for the commerce Of
Venice for the period Of 600 years.
They were never at a discount and for
$50 years of that time they were at a
premium over gold and silver.* Again
it ,s urged that the John Law scheme
and the Argentina cedula are examples
of the instability of credit money. Both
these schemes retained the element of
private profit aud when theirs
was no moro security to be had they
both collapsed; Remove the element
of private profit and you will avoid

Windmill Irrigation.
EDITOR FARMERS

EDITOR FARMERS Vo1cE:-Under the
above heading, your journal Of March
23rd contain an article that may SER
iouslv mislead some ri your readers. I
should like to put them and you in pos
session OF some facts that will, in a mea-
sure prevent misunderstanding along
that line, The articles referred to de-
clares that experiment have shown that
IN Western Kansas, cat a maximum
cost OF about $3.50. a pumping appar-
atus can be erected which will raise
sufficient watsr to cover 10 to 20 acres.
Further on 1T is stated that. water in
abundance can be obtained at a depth
OF from $50 to 200 feet" Yesterday
! asked q we'll known irrigation engineer
how much water is needed to ~irrlgate 10
aires OF land. SAID he: "a cubic foot
per second Of water will irrigate 60 acres
a sixth OF a cubic foot per second will
lrrigate 10 acres" Then l asked him
how much power can be obtained from
Il fourteen-foot windmill. He anwered
that, with the wind blowing at the rate
Of Is miles per hour a mill exerts about
a quarter Of a horsepower; and added
that, in practice the power of such
wlndfall works effectively not more
than Il quarter ef the time. This makes
the average power OF the mill, for the
season through, about one sixteenth Of
a horsepower. Pushing my inquiries, L
learned that, when friction IN pipes and
elsewheres is accounted for, the power
Of the windfall, as measured by the
absolute weight of the water pumped
to a height Of 200 feet, amounts to from
one-fourth to one-t. nth of the cal
culated horsepower.
Let us make Il few calculations. Let
us assume that the engineer was to con-
sentative and that his estimate was too
low by one half as regards the amount
Of water needed and the efficiency of the
Windmill. According to this assumE-
ton, one twelfth OF a cubic foot per
second Of water, or five cubit feet per
minute, will irrigate our ten acre field.
I Q lit five cubic feet OF water per nm
ute to a height Of 200 feet will require
the expenditure Of IN amount of power
friction d~lsregatded) equal to the
weight OF the water multiplied by the
height OF the lift, which is $4,000, or
approximately two horsepower. From
the estimate previously made, it Is evil
dent that thirty-two fourteen-foot wind
mills will pump this amount Of water
provided no allowance is made for loss.
Assuming, as VIZ agreed to do, that the
engineer referred to made too conserva-
tive an estimate, let W. suppose that
the real efficiency OF the wind mills
would On Western Kansas be one-thi d
OF their calculated efficiency. 1t will
readily appear that only sc windmiT.s
OF the size indicated will be necessary to
pump water for 10 acres of arid land
OF course any Western farmer can we'll
