HERE'S A COOL HOUSE.

German Inventor COnceives Scheme
to Keep You Comfortable in Summer
The house of the water tubes is the
remarkable building freak of a German
inventor, who claims that he has solved
the problem of constant temperature
that may be regulated at Will, and Incl
dentally secured structure that com
bines the elements of strength, comfort
and beauty.
He first put up a skeleton of his
house, the frame for walls and floors
being of water tubing, connected with.
pumping and boiler system in the
basement. Around this skeleton, says
the New York journal, he put up his
house in the ordinary way. The tubes
were within the walls and between the
floors and ceilings. In the summer
time this tubing is connected with the
regular water supply, and a steady
stream flows through the pipes in the
walls and under the floors, circulating
under pressure, absorbing the heat of
the walls and floors as it flows. Dur
ing the long and severe winter the tub
ing is connected with the boiler, and
water heated to 100 degrees forced
through the circuit of pipes. The wa
| ter at the outlet is found to have de-
| creased to 40 degrees, the remaining 60
| degrees having been distributed
throughout the house. The speed of
the circulation of water can be regu-
| lated so as to allow the fixing and main
tenance of a certain temperature
| throughout the building.

Daily Journey of the Sun Puzzled tho
AncIents-Many Erroneous Theories.

Daily Journey of the Sun Puzzled tho
AncIents-Many Erroneous Theories.
Strange as it may seem in this day
and age, the rising and setting of the
sun was the greatest of natural phe-
nomena to the ancient scholars They
were greatly puzzled to krow how the
same sun which plunged into the ocean
at Il fabulous distance in the west could
reappear the next morning at an equal
ly great distance in the east. And, as
Sir Robert Ball points out, number of
remarkable theories were advanced,
and every one of them wrong. THE
old mythology asserted that after the
sun had dipped in the western ocean
at sunset (the Iberians and other an
cient nations actually imagined that
they could hear the Kissing of the
waters when the glowing globe was
plunged therein) he was seized by Vul-
can and placed in golden goblet This
strange craft with its astonishing car
20 navigated the ocean by n northerly
course, SO as to reach the east again
in time for sunrise the following morn
ing. Among the more sober physicists
OF old, as we are told by Aristotle, if
was believed that in some manner the
sun vas conveyed by night across the
northern regions, and that darkness
was due to lofty mountains, which
screened off the sunbeams during the
voyage" Another theory was that the
sun actually pursued his course below
The solid earth during the darkness of
night, and philosophers taught the
same about the stars that rose and set.
These are'but samples of many theory
that might be named with regard to
the phenomenon of sunrise and sunset.

TEACHERS IM .cAMeopIA.
A Spiritual Bond Between Thorn and
Their Pupils.

A Spiritual Bond Between Thorn and
Their Pupils.
All children who present themselves at
the veat for study are received. 1t is
not ever required that their parents
bring them or send them, says Popular
Science Monthly. The newcomer
chooses his professor, and, if accepted,
begins at once to study under his direc-
ton, installs himself in his cell or in
the school hall, and becomes his servant
If the professor has already too many
pupils, he refuses the new pu-
pill and advises him to choose another
teacher; sometimes he guides his choice,
Directing hira to master who has few
or no pupils, takes him to the SUI
perior who viii select u teacher for linn.
The choice of professor is always
grave affair, because it is held in CAM
bodia, as in all Buddhist and Brahnlatic
countries, that professor and pupil are
bound by strong ties of spiritual af-
finity, and that the pupil ought to re-
spect his master as he does his fat her
and mother. The law inflicts the same
penalty upon an offense of the pupil
against his master as an offense by Il
son against his father and mother and
it prescribes that in certain cases the
pupil may be heir of his professor W hen
he has cared for him or supported hmm
or served him when studying under his
direction; not only family bond but
Il religious bond, too, is established be-
tween them, for the professor malles; it
his business to teach his pupil the course
by which he may earn more advanta-
geous reincaInation and reach the Mr.
vana, and becomes his spiritual guide.

MOUNT RAINIER I4,sle FEET HIGH
Figures Which Go on Government Rec
Ords Official.

Geo. <. Hyde, in charge of the U. S.
geological survey, which has been in the
field in this county all summer, has
given out the correct altitude of Mt
Rainier as determined by the survey by
means of triangulation. The figures are
1859 feet above sea level. The base
line at Ellensburg was used, with sea-
level guage at Tacoma, and these figures
will go on government records as Off
cial.
Mr.. Hyde says he has been unable to
find any authority for the old figures,
14,444, and he thinks they were arbitrar-
dly adopted to go Mt. Shasta four bet
ter, that mountains elevation having
been officially fixed at IA, ,44O.
This last measurement makes fIt.
Rainier the highest mountain in the
United States, and in Mr.. Hyde's judg-
ement it is the most beautiful and SYM
-metrical mountain in North America.
While Mt. Shasta is nearly as high, its
base is 5000 feet above sea level, but
Mt. Rainier's feet are planted practi-
ecally at tide water, and his giant form
raises to the tremendous height literally
at one jump.
