Established in Paris for the Safety of
the Public.
Those who have spent much time in
Paris will be pleased to hear that cab
men are now compelled by law to take
instruction in the art of driving. No
where in the world do they need 1t
more.
Before they can obtain their licenses
from the Project of Police the cabmen
must pass an examination. They are
required to prove that they are famil-
lar with every street and monument in
Paris, and to drive perfectly, and that
they understand the elements Of polite
conduct.
If they fail in any of these tests they
are rejected and If they persist in their
ambition they can obtain instruction
at the newly established school for enb-
men, near the Butte Montmartre.

There is q new disease not down In

perts, says the Syracuse Post. Street.
railway conductors are the persons at
fected. AS far as can be learned, about
a half-dozen employees Of the Syracuse
street railroad company have lately
been afflicted more or less with SWELL
ing Of the eyes, accompanied by partial
blindness. The conductors In question,
without exception, stuck to their work,
but one Of them was forced to undergo
medical treatment. He had observed
from time to time that his hands grew
black from contact with the brass rail-
ing of the car when he jumped on and
off. In windy weather he had to wipe
his eyes more or less to brush away
the moisture. These two things he
only observed after he was we'll along
in the stage Of the eye trouble. He
consulted a physician and was treated
for metallic poisoning, finally recover
ing without difficulty. Then he came
to the conclusion that the contact with
the railing was responsible for the
trouble. Since that time he has worn
gloves and has not experienced the dis
case. But those conductors who do not
know his experience may yet suffer.
This man was afflicted for four weeks.
Motormen are not troubled with the
disease, as they wear gloves.

A Now Fabric.

A fabric of beautiful appearance is
to be put upon the MARKHAM I'm
provement upon the waterproof coated
materials rendered thus impervious by
treatment with the well-known india
rubber and other solutions. The i'm
provement in this case consists in CIV
ing to the coated surface of such
goods dressing formed by a film of
powder made by reducing glass to an
impalpable dust and finely sieved so
as to remove all crystallized appear
ance, this coating giving to the surface
treated fine, soft, silky and luminous
effect. Thus coated, the material may
be ornamented either before or after
vulcanization, by printing or other
method in a suitable medium and In
the colorings preferred, the desired
pattern or design. For this purpose,
colors having an india rubber or other
suitable waterproof medium are select
ed; and, in order to counterfeit the ad-
hesive property, the material is treated
after ornamentation to q second coat
ing of pulverized glass; this also pro-
duces a luminous appearance, while not
being soluble in water, it possesses the
advantage of being more substantial
and lasting in its effects than the Or
binary powders employed.
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1896-10-29

A correspondent Of a London relig.
ious journal solemnly AYERS that 1t is
a regular custom" for people in San
Francisco and other hot districts in the
United States to vary their summer
church services in this effective way:
The worshipers ''get up and stretch
themselves, and even take turn out
side, after the fashion Of the theater
between the acts" The adoption of
some Of these sensible ways" would
cause the churches in England, the cor
respondent thinks, to be generally
Nlled, even in spite of the hot weather"
This imaginary picture could have been
made appropriately complete IL the
writer had added that while taking q
turn outside" the overheated congre-
cation occasionally shoot a bear or in
dulge in the luxury of brief encounter
with Indians.
