The Dyeing Ball.

A convenient article of French inven-
ton is the ''dyeing ball, containing NOR
dant and dye stuff for one dip dyeing and
said to be composed as follows: The color
ing matter is mixed with glutinous sub
stance, and being worked up into stiff
paste with sufficient water nodded into
balls, the latter next receiving n strong
coating of the Necessary mordSnt in a re-
volving drum, so that the ball resembles
an apple dumping, OF which the dyestuff
is the apple and the mordant the dough-
The ball in this form Is for the ordinary
order of dyeing where the fiber is first
mordantcd and then dyed, but for after
mordanting' tho order may be reversed,
and the mordant then becomes the kernel,
while the dyestuff fills the place of cnvel-
ope. The coloring matter is generally used
in fine powder and worked up with some
yiscous body and enough water to insure a
firm paste, the latter to be manipulated
into balls by means of the usual machine,
these being subsequently dried to the re-
quircd degree. After this they are damped
with mucilage and coated with the NOR
dant in a fine powdcr.-New York sun.

Why Is the Negro Black?

II the conclusions of NJ. .Jauffcrt, tho
great French scicntisk are to be relied
upon, there is no reason why the skin of
the African should be block and that of
the Scandinavian of milky fairncss-that
is to say, there are no apparent causes for
this wide variation in color. Jauffcrt
says: 1.-The skin of the African negro is of
exactly the same anatomical structure as
that of the fair skinned, flaxcn haired
Norseman. 1t may aisc be shown that in
the mucous layers of the skin of dark com
plcxioned whites pigment cells similar to
those found in the Negroes skin are deyel-
opcd in exactly the same way they are in
the blacklist African Moreover, freckles
are of the same nature as the blackness
which has suffused the entire skin of many
of the tropical barbarian tribes. st.

MICROBES IN CLOTH.
terms and Racilli Found In SILK Sto
inGs and New Gloves

Terms and Bacilli Found In SILK Stock
inGs and New Gloves.
Microbia, Or the science of microbes
is becoming more and more an exact
study, and theories which lacked confirma-
tlon a few short months ago have now be-
come medical facts. Perhaps the latest
discovery in the realm of bactcriology is
regarding the enormous quantity of ba-
GILL that are to be found in cotton and
wooden clothes Herr Seitz. sayant and
physician Of Munich, has recently made a
series Of careful Investigations of bits of
cotton and WOODEN goods, and the result of
his researches, as he gives it out, contains
information that is startling and worthy
of careful attention.
Herr Seltz's experimenting has been
Done with pieces of cloth about onc-eighth
OF an inch across. In the average bit of
WOODEN goods of this size he discovered $50
microbes. The pieces examined were cut
from wooden stocking. In a piece Of
like size, cut from cotton stocking. he
found an average yield Of 712 microbes.
These bits of cloth had all been worn.
But Herr Seitz's experiment did not stop
here. He carefully tested bits of q glove
that was quite now and fresh and had new
er yet been upon any hand. In that 80
microbes were discovered on the average,
all the pieces examined having been of the
above size. Other experiments quite as
interesting this German physician made,
with the result of formally establishing
the theory that microbes exist to a greater
Or less extent in all wearing apparel.
1t must not be supposed, however, Herr
Seltz contends, that all the varieties of ba-
cilli found in clothing are breeders of dan
gerous diseases. Some of them have been
proved by science to be quite harmless,
but the mere fact that microbes can and
do exist in clothes and grow fruitful and
multiply there is an alarming one. With
this theory made into fact, the peculiar
spreading of contagious diseases can be
traced much more easily and precautions
more readily taken. Accepting the fact
that nearly all clothing is the seat of some
type OF bacilli, it is not difficult to see how
certain sporadic diseases spring up.
One especially valuable bit of medical
data has come to light through these ex-
perimonts, and that is to the effect that
the bacilli of typhoid fever can be preserv-
ed in wool, under ordinary conditions, for
25 days A vigorous application of this
knowledge may do much to ward off ty-
phoid fever in future. York World
