1t perhaps is not generally known to
the travelling public that most of the
wheels used Oh railroad coaches ON the
Central TailIcGd are made in Germany.
Some English and American wheels are
in use, but FOR the heavy coaches and
sleepeTs the German wheels are general
lynsed. These wheels are manufactured
at Essen by Knapp, the great ironmaster
and maker Of big guns. The standard
size is 36 inches in diameter, although
many 80 inches in diameter are in use.
The German wheel differs from the Eng
fish wheel in that the body of the wheel
is of solid iron, while tho English wheel
has short spokes. There are fewer bolts
ia the German wheel than in others,
and therefore less chance for anything
to shake loose.
The strain ON carwheel is something
tremendous. Formerly they were made
entirely of cast iron. They were liable
to crack easily, and the rims wore rap
idly. All first class carwheels are now
made with solid steel tire nearly two
inches thick. 1t stands the friction Of
the rails for long time. In straight
running the wear on the wheels is gen.
orally even. Where cars have to travel
over curves going in the same direction
every day in the year, as on belt line,
they are reversed several times during
the year. Albany State

The Rev. DR.. Talmage has obtained
some interesting and accurate Informal
ton about the interior workings of a
newspaper Office, upon which he bases
the following truthful remarks:
One Of the great trials Of the news
paper profession is that members are
compelled TO see more Of the sham Of
the world than any ether profession.
Through every newspaper Office day aft
er day go all the weaknesses of the
world--all the vanities that want to be
pulled, all the revenges that want to be
reaped, all the mistakes that want to be
corrected, all the dull speakers that
want to be thought eloquent, all the
uneanness that wants to get its wares
noticed gratis in order to save the tax Of
the advertising column, all men who
want TO be set right who were never
right, all the crack Drained philosophers
with stories as long as their hair and IS
gloomy as their finger nails in the Morn
ing, bereft of soap--al the bores who
come TO stay Eve minutes, but talk five
hours. Through the editorial and re-
portorial rooms all the follies and shams
OF the world are seen day after day, and
the temptation is neither to believe in
God, man nor woman. 1t is no surprise
to me that in this profession there are
some skeptical men. only wonder that
newspaper men believe anything.

Metal Ceilings.

The evolution in the last few years,
In the preparation of metal ceilings, has
witnessed the improvement from crimp-
ed or corrugated sheets TO the handsome
and architectural designs that mark the
product of newer methods and improved
machinery. The raised designs on the
metal enable the decorator to obtain
these beautiful effects of lights and
shadows which are so essentially neces-
sary to give life and character to the
work, and as the designs are executed
to conform with the many different
styles of decorations there is scarcely
limit TO the effects to be obtained, aud
at much less cost than can be secured
from other and less durable materials
They can be applied to any form of
room and are of special value in
churches, courtrooms aud theafers on
account of acoustic properties and rich
effects. which are obtained at mini.
mum cost They are also of special
value on account of ventilation. Ma

Deep Sea Therrnomeser.

The deep sea thermometer, as invented
abroad and improved by officers of the
United States navy, is marvelously in
genious and effective continuance. 1t Is
in effect q self registering instrument,
though not technically so called. The
Thermometer is 50 arranged that it isau-
tomatically turned upside down when
the machinery begins to draw it mp from
The depth at which the temperature Is to
be ascertained. The effect Of the inyert-
ing process is TO break the column Of
mercury, and a small portion Of the col
umn remains in the upper end Of the
tube, exactly enough to measure the tenn
perature at the moment Of inversion.
The tube is graduated SO as to read from
either end. and the quantity Of mercury
In the upper part Of the tube Is 80 small
that 1t does not respond to any but great
and sudden changes of temperature. /.
thus happens that the reading, when the
thermometer reaches the surface, is prac-
tically correct for the temperature at the
point of inversion. Kansas City Times.

1t is stated BY The Popular Health
Magazine Of this city that "redness of
the nose" is caused by indigestion, not
intemperance. The remedy, it is stated,
is to ''abstain from overindulgence in
fats and sweets. " This dictum will be
appreciated by many worthy people
whose noses are unauiy rosy. For years
they have been misjudged by irreverent
eeoffers who did not scruple to ascribe
the nasal tint TO excessive imbibitions.
Mow science comes to their relief. 1t is
~fats and sweets that make the trouble,
causing indigestion, which produces a
rush of blood TO the nose. Some persons
given to alcoholic stimulants do indeed
have red noses, but the rednes is sto-
machic, not alcoholic. The "firewater"
