The Dangers of Divers.

The greatest danger to these who dive
into the sea for valuables that have
been sunk is that of falling asleep.
On hot day the contrast between
the heat above and the delicious cool
ness below water is apt to make "a diver
sleepy. One of these men stated that
he once slept half an hour at the bot
tom of a wreck, where he was laying q
pipe.
Surprising that had happened in a
channel where the tide runs so swiftly
that diver can work only during the
one hour of slack water, the deadly
rush of tide would have snapped the
lifeline and hose. Then in working
wrecks there is the danger of getting
damned in between freight or OF get
ting the hose or line entangled. When
the hose snaps at great depth the ire
mendous pressure kills the diver. He is
frightfully distorted by it.-Pearson' as

George Du Maurier's Double.

Mr.. Du Maurier had a double, and
his double was, as many people are
aware, Mr. Alma Tadema. So remark
able was the resemblance that even
their most intimate friends frequently
mistook them.
A certain young lady, however, prid-
ed herself that she had no difficulty in
determining which was which. On one
occasion, finding herself seated next to
Du Maurier at dinner, she remarked:
"I cannot understand how any one
can mistake you for MIR. Tadema. To
me the likeness is very slight" Pres
emily she added: "By the way, have
a photograph of you. Do be SO good as
to put your autograph to it. F"
Mr.. Du Maurier asserting gracious
ly, the photograph was afterward pro-
duced. He looked at il for moment,
sighed and then very gently laid it on
the table.
"That," he remarked, "is Mr.. Alma
Tadema's portrait. "-Pearson's Week

However innocent she may be. little
French girl is much more Of a little

A Laughing Disease.

From Austria comes curious account

ease that manifests itself in paroxysms
of laughter. The patient, whose case

and Neurological society of Vienna. was
80 years of age and had been subject for
three years to fits of laughter, which
occurred at first every two or three
months, gradually increasing in fire.

attacks occurred especially between 8 in
the evening and 6 80 in the morning,
and in greatest frequency between 3

the day, however the patient happened
to be occupied. In the intervals between
the attacks and Immediately before and
afterward the man was perfectly We'll.
The attacks set in with tickling sem
sation arising from the toes OF the left
foot. and the patient would fall to the

Machinery fabrication.

The results of some valuable expert
ments on the fabrication OF machinery
bearings have been set forth by MIR.
Dewrance in an address before the civil
Engineers institute, London. His OBJ
seryations show that olive oil becomes
black and thick after passing through
the bearings several times. This OIL,
after filtration, was composed OF IL per
cent of oleate of lead, 9.57 per cent OF
oleate of acid and "a. go per cent OF
olive oil and glycerin, the oleate ACID
in the olive oil appearing to attack

ty. Thus disks of metals used i'll the

Solidified Petroleum.

The claim some time ago set forth by
Paul d 'Humy, French naval officer,
of having originated process for the
successful qualification of petroleum
for commercial and industrial purposes

From this account, summarized III The
Progressive Age, it appears that heavy
common oil has been converted by this
inventor into solid block, as hard as
the hardest coal, burning slowly, Civ
ing of an intense heat and showing
not the slightest sign of melting, ton
of such fuel representing as many as so
tons of coal, and the space occupied by
one ton Of it being about three cubic
feet, as against the large space required
for the coal. At recent gathering of
experts, Nj. d Humy exhibited samples
of the article and experimental with
them. On the table were several cakes

Photograph.

Lifelike Tints Impaired to an Ordinary
Photograph. -,
1t has been known for long time
that if the suns rays are allowed to
shine upon the glass side Of a photo
graphic negative and the eye is brought
into the proper position it is possible
to see the positive picture in the origi-
nal natural colors Of the object photo
graphed. From a scientific standpoint
this is sometimes matter of very
great importance. In order to bring out
this quality of negative independently
of the suns rays Professor Lippmann
has, after long study, constructed an
apparatus which enables him to obtain
the same result with artificial light He
employs gas lamp with Welsbach
burner, the rays of which are thrown
upon the negative by means of lens,
in order to have the rays strike the neg
alive parallel.
The negative is for the purpose
mounted upon wooden stand with
black polished surface. Another large
lens, held in black frame, is mounted
on "a separate stand, and diaphragm
held upon the same stand is provided
| Immediately in front Of the focus OF
this larger lens. To see the picture in
all its natural beauty of color the angle
ut which the negative is examined must
| be exactly the same as the angle at
which the parallel rays strike 1T. 1t is
| in the reflection of the light rays and
| its distribution through the larger lens
| that the picture, which is fastened upon
the negative in dull black tones, Is
| again dissolved into its original re-
splendent beauty. Aside from its scien-
| tific Importance, it is a matter OF con-
| siderable moment, for instance, in re-
production of portraits in oil after O

and complexion are plainly discernible

ESgl ish Drinking Songs.

The best of the English drinking songs
Aere written by the dramatists of the
Hventeenth century, men who trolled
out their vigorous sentiments, linked
Jweetly together in flowing verse, with
out the smallest thought or fear of
shocking anybody. Frankly indecorous,
they invite the whole wide world to
drink with them, to empty the brim-
ming tankard passed from hand to hand
and to reel home through the frosty
streets, where the Waterman grins at
their unsteady steps, and quiet sleepers,
awakened from dull dreams, echo with
drowsy sympathy the last swelling ca
dence Of their uproarious song. Where
there is no public sentiment to defy
even bacchanalian rioters and baccha-
nalian verses cease to be defiant. What
admirable good temper and sincerity In
Fletcher's generous importantly
Drink today and drown all sorrow;
You shall perhaps not do II tomorrow.

Then let US swirl, boys. for our health.
Who drinks we'll loves the commonwealth,
| And he that will to bed go sober
Falls with the leaf, still in October.
Upon this song successive changes
have been sung, until now its variations
are bewildering, and to it we owe the
ever popular and utterly indefensiblt
glee roared out for generations by many
lusty tavern chorus:
| He who goes to bed and goes to bed sober

But he who goesto bed and goes to bed mellow

Nothing of the sort. Shut your eyes
Now open them. There!"
An immense buster Of magnificent
peacock feathers, released from its
sheath of wrappings, was flourished be-
fore the young woman's eyes. She gave
one look at it, then burst out crying.
"Oh, you cruel boy! When you know
