Soan Made From Waste.

1t is difficult for one to always
realize how much we owe to sci
ence and invention. By these two
powerful genii of modern times waste
has become valuable, and little or
nothing is lost. Under the name of
soap stock a peculiar product appears
to be prepared in the province
of Leece, in the consular district of
Brindisi. 1t is prepared by subject
ing the residue of the olive kernels to
chemical processes under the action
of sulphuric acid, after all means of
extraction by pressure have been ex-
hausted. OF this substance 1t is stated
that during 1894 the quantity pro-
duced amounted to about 1, 200 tons,
the medium market price for which
ranged at about 800 per ton.
This article, which Is of little value
as a lubricator, has an extensive sale
for use in soap manufacture, and il
years when the oil crop has been ia
vorable, considerable quantities have
been exported to America, Great
Britain and northern Europe. Thi
oil locally known as "olio sulfureo,
or sulphur oil, from the system of it
extraction. The refuse left after tn
extraction of this oil is known a
'sausa, and is used for fuel for staar
boilers by millers, as being NOR
ecDnomical than coal.

Yet another submarine boat has
been invented, or is it an old friend
under an assumed name? BE this AZ
1t may, a submarine boat, ordered by
tho Brazilian government, was to DO
tried this week on the Seine, and the
trials being satisfactory other and
larger vessels are to be built, says the
Court Journal. The new boat, which
is named the Goubet, is some twenty
six feet long, about five feet six inches
in diameter in the center, and has q
displacement OF about ten tons. The
motive power is supplied by electric
ity, and the screw also serves the pur-
pose Of arudder theshaft being joined
so as to enable it to be turned either
to the right or to the left
Three men, the inventor claims, can
live under water in the Goubet for
twelve hours with the supply Of COM
pressed air. This has, of course, to
be proved; but in the event of any
thing going wrong, lead keel, weigh
ing over a ton, can be Immediately
dropped, and the boat will at once
come to the surface like a cork. On
account of electricity being used for
supplying the propelling power, the
sphere Of action Of the new boat must
Of necessity be very limited, as COM
passes cannot be used, but it could do
all that was required of it, ii taken on
board vessel and launched when the
enemy's ships were in sight. The
Goubet's mission is to throw rorpe-
does, and if the arrangement for
throwing these proiectiles can be re-
lied upon, she will prove a formidable
antagonist. To sink the Goubet water
is let into compartments in the lower
part of the boat, and when it is sunk
to any required depth in that position
it remains exactly, the arrangement for
sinking the vessel being SO beautifully
and carefully arranged. One ounce
of water-more or less-it is said, will
cause the boat to sink lower or. come
nearer the surface.

SleenY Hens.

Lima Berry has big chicken farm
in West Buxton, and has several hun
dred hens. He brings many eggs and
chickens dead and dressed) to Port
land. He loads his wagon the night
before and starts at a. m. He has
only to hitch up the horses and drive
He did SO last Monday morning. 1t
is drive OF seventeen miles to this
city. He reached here at just about
sunrise, says the Portland (Me.),
Press.
As he approached the United States
hotel to deliver some produce, some
one shouted at him and asked if he
brought his hens to market roosting
on the cross bar under the wagon,
He paid no attention, supposing the
man was guying him. But when he
stopped at the hotel and others called
his attention to four hens roosting
under the wagon, and just waking up,
it is doubtful which was the most as
tonished, Mr.. Berry or the hens.
Two of the latter were panic-strick-
en-, and started down Federal street
One was caught in Temple street, and
the other got down almost to Ex-
change street before it was captured.
The cook at the hotel bought the four
hens for dollar and took them home.
How many hens were asleep under
the wagon when Mr.. Berry started
from home he can't tell, because his
| yard is overrun with hens, but it is
very possible that there were more
than four.

A Prearranged Marriage.

As a boy I had but one great trouble
in the world, and its name was Eliza.
'My Eliza" Godmother Richards
called her. She was a very nightmare.

Joy. But that was my godmother's

My Eliza was nothing now to me.

Then was obliged to hear what
pieces my Eliza could play upon the
piano-how much French she could
speak-how she had on long dresses
how much handsomer she was than
any godmother knew, and, in short,
how it was the hope of the old lady's
heart to bring us together some day
and make a match Of it. Even the

fairy godmother who could convert
my pumkin of hope into n coach and
