Everybody knows that abroad, and
especially in France, horseless car
riages have been used with entire sue
cess, and the long distance trials be-
tween the capital and Bordeaux have
amply demonstrated the fact that the
new class of gasoline motors are both
practical and efficient. It may
not be SO well known that our
American mechanics are also ac-
lively engaged upon the problem, but
an examination of a recent number OF
trade periodical devoted to the in.
terests of automobile locomotion re-
veals the astonishing fact that no
fewer than thirty-five manufacturers
are preparing to place self'propelling
carriages upon the market during the
coming year. In the same number
arc described and illustrated over
eighty plans for the application OF
power for street and road propulsion,
the various systems, including steam,
electricity, both storage and dynamic,
coiled springs, and oil and gas engines.
1t is true that the recent road trials
at Chicago and Yonkers were not re-
markably successful, but enough has
been accomplished to show that
horseless loeomotion is a possibility
in the near future, and with the ex-
tension of the good roads system it is
a certainty. The remarkable advance
in bicycle construction, including the
use of light steel frames, ball bearings
and pneumatic tires, has been an i'm
portant factor in bringing about this
result, a development almost as i'm
portant in ITS bearing upon social con
ditions as was the invention of the
steam locomotive. And, after nll, the
steam railway is only sixty-fve year
old, while the trolley is thing OF yes
terday. Truly this is the end of th'
century.

sultan,s Sanity Questioned.

A German newspaper boldly asserts
that the ruler of the Turkish Empire
is fanatic, and gives good and suf-
ficient reason for its belief During
his fits of insanity his predominating
passion is frenzied hatred against
the Armenians. So terrible have these
fits become that the Sultan's attend
ants often dare not enter his cabinet.
In fact, all their energies are required
to dodge their infuriated monarch,
who rushes from hall to hall talking to
himself. A short time ago, it is adj
ded, the Sultan, in n fit Of madness,
shot courtier who happened to make
n motion with his arm and which the
sovereign chose to consider suspicious.
Sometimes, on the other hand, the
Sultan has fits of uncomfortable mer-
riment, particularly when he has rea-
son to believe that the Powers cannot
agree on measures against him.

When choking from any cause get
upon all fours and cough, if there is
no one present to render the old.tlme
assistance of pounding on the back. !"
If high fever comes on at evening
bathe the feet and wrap in blanket,
put warm irons to the feet and give
aconite in water every hour till the
patient is in a "good sweat" then
keep well covered.
In fracture of the skull, with COM
preston and loss of consciousness, ex-
anime the wound and if possible raise
the broken edges of the skull so as to
relieve the pressure on the brain.
Prompt action will often save life.
For sprains apply cloths wrung out
of very hot water until the inaamma'
tion and pain have subsidized. For
black and blue spots an ounce of mu'
riate.o ammonia to pint of lukewarm
water makes a good application to be
kept on constantly.

BotherIng The Scientists.

The Investigators whose names ap-
pear in the newspapers in connection
with Roentgen ray experiments are a
good deal bothered by applications
from people who imagine they have
bullets or other unpleasant foreign
substances in various parts OF their
anatomy. The story goes that not
long ago a certain local scientist re-
ceived the following letter: "Desr Sir I:
/ have had bullet in my thorax for
seven years. 1 am too busy to come
to Cleveland, but hope you will be
able to come down here and locate the
bullet, as am sure the case is worth
your while. If you can't come your
self send your apparatus and l will get
one of the doctors here to use it.
Yours truly" Here is the local mans
reply: "Dear Sir-Very sorry can
not find time to visit you, nor will 1
be able to send my apparatus. If you
can't come to Cleveland yourself send
me your thorax by express and / will
do the best can with it. Yours
truly. "-Cleveland Plain-Dealer.

Damage by lightning is unmistaka-
bly, increasing, according to the direc-
tor OF the statistical office of Berlin.
Various causes are assigned. such as
the employment of electricity in var
ious industries, the continual change
OF form of the earth's surface by de-
forestation, drainage, ETC., and the
impurities introduced into the atmos.
phere by the growing consumption of
coal. Professor Won Bezold some
time ago showed that for Bavaria the
fires due to lightning increased from a
yearly average of thirty-two in 1888
to 1843 to 1872 in 1880 to 1882, while
tho number of persons struck by light
ming and of those killed rose from 1874
and seventy-three respectively in 1855
to 1856 and l61 in 1885. An interest.
ing fact noted IS that persons struck
generally perceive neither lightning
nor thunder, but receive the impress
sion of being enveloped by fine.

SONG BEFORE SUNRISE

The morning star is twlnkllng
Above the ebon hill, '-
And In the distant valley
hear the whippoorwlll;
And like golden galley,
Abandoned TO the seas,
The glbbous moon is sinking
Beside Hesperldes.
It's up an hour before the dawn,
It's up and far away;
It's up to meet my own true lovo
Upon our wedding day.
The roses in my garden
Breathe out their fragrant breath,
Like fairy children sleeping
Without u thought OF death;
The lark is still a-dreaming
Within his dewy nest,
OF when the light OF heaven
Shall bloom upon his brenst.
It's up an hour before the dawn,
It's up and far away;
It's up to meet my own truo love
Upon our wedding day.
OF all the days the sweetest,
oh, this glad day shall be;
No care from dawn to sunset,
That brings my love to me.
Uncloudel is the dnwning,
Unclouded be the close;
And every hope be dimplel,
And hallowed where It goes.
It's up an hour before the dawn,
1t'sup and far away;
It's up to meet my own true love
Upon our wedding day.
