Simon Oppasich, n millionaire who has
been sentenced in Vienna to seven years
hard labor for repeatedly perjuring him
self, was born without feet or arms. His
father and mother were professional
beggars, and in his twelfth year he was
put on the street by them to solicit aims
His physical defects brought him an ex-
ceptional amount Of sympathy and
guldens He saved his money. and in
1880, at the age of AZ, he had accumula-
ted $50, 900. With this sum he began
business as usurer and real estate specu-
lator. In 1888 he had increased his for
tune to 1926, 900 in cash, and some 5000,
600 in Trieste and Parenzo real estate.
Since then he has quadrupled his wealth
by trading on the Boerse. His miser-
illness led to his present troubles.
He had promised to marry a woman,
but eventually threw her over to avoid
mourning the expense of wedding.
When she threatened him with legal
proceedings, he bought her forbearance
for cents a day. This expenditure was
impoverishing him, he told her after a
few months, and so he discontinued it,
In the trial of the case which she then
made against him he swore that he had
never contemplated marrying her. had
never promised to do so. and had never
paid her cents a day. After all thi:
had been proved false, he was tried and
condemned for perjury.-Boston Jour

In nature marble is made out of chalk
by water. which percolates through the
chalky deposits, dissolves the chalk par
ticle by particle and crystalhzes it, noun
tain pressure solidifying it. 1t has been
found that similar results may be ac-
complished by chemical means. First.
slices of chalk are dipped in color
bath, staining them with tints that will
initiate any kind Of marble known. For
this purpose the same mineral stains are
used as are employed in nature For
example, to produce counterfeit verde
antique" oxide of copper is utilized. IL
like manner green, pink, black and other
colorings are obtained. Next, the chalk
slices go into another bath, by which
they are hardened and crystalized, COM
ing out to all intents and purposes real

Petroleum For pinhtherIa.

In the village of Neuyille-C hamp-d'Oi-
sci. about nine miles from Rouen, ma
lignant type of diphtheria broke out last
year. The country doctor. M. Frederic
Flahaut, treated the cases in the usual
way, but the deaths were numerous.
Remembering, as he says, that the Eng
lish use petroleum as an antispasmodic
and an antiseptic. he determined to try
it as an experiment. His first trial was
in the case Of little girl z years old.
He had already given her up and pro-
posed to the parents to make the expert
ment. which consisted in swabbing the
throat with common petroleum. He had
little hope Of the success of his new
method, but to his establishment he no
ticed an improvement after the very first
application. He continued the treat
ment, and the child recovered. Then he
tried it successfully with his other pa
tents.
This year he had 40 cases of diphtheria
to treat, and he was successful in every
one. In order to be perfectly sure that
the cases in question were genuine ones
of malignant diphtheria he had the ex-
perforated matter submitted to the anal
ysis of Professor Francois Hue of the
Rouen College of Medicine, and the pro-
fessor reported that he had clearly dis
covered the presence in it of numerous
bacilli of diphtheria. Moreover, his di-
agnosis was confirmed by Drs. Deshayes,
Lerefait and Ballay of Rouen, the last
named being the physician in chief OF
the hospital of that city.
The treatment presents little difficulty
or danger. The swabbing is done every
hour or every two hours, according tc
the thickness of the membranes. which
become, as it were, diluted under the &C
ton of the petroleum. The brush, after
being dipped in the petroleum. should
be shaken to prevent any drops falling
into the respiratory channels. The pa
tents experience relief from the very
first application. The disagreeable tast'
of the petroleum remains for few mo
ments only.-Normandie Medicale.

THE LITTLE ARMCHAIR.

Nobody sits in the little armchair;

But white haired mother gazing there
And yearningly thinking Of him
Sees through the dusk OF the long ago

With laugh that cheers the place.
Sometimes he holds book in his hand.
Sometimes a pencil and slate,
And the lesson Is hard TO understand.

When the great world caught the man,
And he strobe away past hopes and fears

rum were submitted to architects of rec

among those who submitted designs were
Misses Cannon and Hands. The commit

submitted were so well pleased with the
plans of Misses Cannon and Hands that
they were accepted
The building will bc of wood and in the

were the first women to have work hung
in the Architectural league, and they are
also the first women to design a building
in San Francisco. They have been study
ing architecture about two years and arc
deeply interested in the subject.
Among the other competitions that have
been entered by Misses Cannon and Hands
was the contest for the Woman's building
at the Cotton States and International ex-
position, which is to be held in Atlanta.
Their plans for this building attracted the
admiring attention Of many eminent New
York architects and were well Thought Of
by the committee In Atlanta, but the de-
sign of Miss Elise Mercur of Pittsburg Sc
cured the prize. The youth Of the girls Is
one of the astonishing features of their
surprisingly good work. Miss Cannon is
II years Of age and Miss Hands but a
year older.

Those who eat heartily of bananas may
run some risk of becoming tawny or
copper colored. This may be inferred
possibly from the peculiarities of plum
age in the turacos of Africa. AS long
as the weather is dry these birds are gay,
the primary and secondary feathers be-
ing gorgeously crimson, but when rain
comes the color is washed out, and the
birds seem to be Inundated and ashamed
at the transformation. But the color
returns in dry weather. The cause Of
the coloration has been traced to copper
in very pure state. A single feather
burned gives the characteristic indica-
ton. The source of the turacin has now
been traced to bananas, on which the
turacos feed chiefly. All the aborigines
who make bananas diet are very deep
" tinted. but the color is sooty rather
than red. The North American Indian
cannot owe his coppery hue to bananas
He has only known of this fruit ON reser-
vations and chiefly by the peelings.-

His first ambition was to become trapez-

time was devoted to practice on the trapeze
and on the tight rope. and at the age OF
Il he Joined Thayer & Noyes wagon cir
Gus in Charleston.
Soon thereafter he entered the service OF
an aeronaut and made his first ascension
In Evansville Ind. He was delighted with
the experience and upon his return TO
terra firma decided that the life of bal
loonist'' was the life for him. He has since
made hundreds Of ascensions, parachute
drops and high dives without breaking a
single bone in his body. His most ambi-
tious effort took him three miles from the
earth, and the feat was performed in a
very small gas balloon Of only 6, 600 cubic
feet capacity He has also dropped TO- 900
feet with the aid of parachute and claims
to have dived from a tower 1856 feet high,
a height 81 feet greater than the center OF

able addition to the balloon corps.
Captain Glassford has long been inter-
ested in the subject of military ballooning,
and two years ago while abroad he studied
the work of the French, German and Eng
lish officers who had used balloons In Sig
nal service work, and upon his return to
America no had constructed an army bal
loon that will carry two men and their
signal service outfit. The balloon, which
is called the General Myer, is spherical in
form and has capacity Of 13, 600 cubic
feet. The experiments are conducted at
Fort Logan, near Denver. The balloon is
held captive by means Of steel cable,
and at night signals are made by flashing
