TO BUY THE POPE A CITY.
Constantinoplc, Moro Than Rome, II
Likely to BE Purchased.

Constantinoplo, Moro Than Rome. II
Likely to BE Purchased.
1t is suggested that the Roman Catho-
lies of Christendom shall subscribe S1.-
100000, 900 to buy Rome and O nearby
seaport for the pope, says Harpcr's
Weekly. The belief is expressed that
the Italian government might sell the
property without serious detriment to
It's political integrity and that the
money could be used to great advantage
in relieving Italy of part of the burden
OF her public debt. 1t is not proposed
to turn over the principal to the vendors,
but to place it in trust and to pay its
annual proceeds into the Italian treas
ury as long as the pope remains undis-
turbed in the papal territory.
The plan is very pretty one aud
there are those who think the money
might be raised and that King Hum
bert's government would appreciate
the advantages of such bargain. But
would Rome be the best purchase the
pope could make with the money?
Chicago would take him vastly cheaper
and give him port privileges on Lake
Michigan, but she could not engage to
make him monarch of an American town
ship at any price. But there is Con-
stantinople, an excellent city, where
popes have lived before, full of ready
made churches built by Christians and
nearly ripe now for reconsecration.
Constantinople seems liable to come
into the market any day. If the pope
could buy it Of the sultan That would be
deal worth subscribing to and worth
turning page of history to record.

SCIENTIFIC REASON GIVEN.
Why the Eyes of q Painted Portrait Fol-
low the Observer.

Wollaston's curious discovery was
that hy adding to each pair of eyes n
nose directed to the right or the left,
the eyes lose their front direction, and
look to the right or left, according to
the direction of the nose. BY means Of
a flap representing the lower features
in different position, as DIR. Wollaston
remarks, "a lost look of devout abstrac-
tion in an uplifted countenance of in
quisitive archness in the lcer of
younger face turned downward and OBJ
liquely toward the opposite side"
AS by changing the direction of the
lower features we change the direction
of the eyes, says Notes and Qucries. SO
by changing our position, the eye of the
portrait apparently follows us. IL
vertical line be drawn through the tip
Of the nose and half way between the
eyes, there will be the same breadth of
head, of cheek, of chin and of neck on
each side of this middle line, and each
iris will be in the middle of the whole
eye. If we now move to one side, the
apparent horizontal breadth of every
part of the head and face will be iii.
minisbed, but the parts on each side of
the middle line will be diminished equal
ly, and at any position, however oblique,
there will be the same breadth of face
on each side of the middle line, and the
iris will be in the center of the whole
of the eyeball so that, being on u flat
surface, the iris will be seen in front of
the picture or obliquely.

HOW HIGH GAN MAN GO?
Human Feet Will Probably Never Pres!
 the Peak of Mount Everest

Human Feet Will Probably Never Press
 the Peak of Mount Everest.
 Prof. Ugolino Mosso, of Turin, has made some interesting experiments OF; the effects experienced in ascending tc high attitudes. All climbers of lofty mountains are aware that at great heights, such as the summit of Meet Blanc, respiration becomes more or less troublesome, the heart beats rapidly and sometimes irregularly, and a feeling of exhaustion, often accompanied by nausea, is experienced. These effects arise largely from the rarity of the air, and since the atmosphere becomes less dense the higher one goes, it is evidc nt that limit must soon be reached above which man cannot ascend.' Prof. MosSo made his first experiments on MoI tc Rosa, next to Mont Blanc, the highest peak of the Alps, where he ascended to an elevation exceeding 15,000 feet with out serious inconvenience. Returning to Turin he made his next ascent, so to speak, without ascending at all. h other words, he produced an imitation of the rare atmosphere of very lofty mountain top by partially eXhaust.ng the air from large pneumatic chamber in which he had shut himself. When he air in the chamber corresronded in de- sity with that which would be found . a height of 2A,272 feet above sea lcvcl, he suffered such i'll effects that he could not carry the experiment further. Tie height to which Pref. Mosso thus siml:- lated an ascent is almost mile leaa than that of Mount Everest, so that i seems improbable that man will ever Ee able to set his foot on the loftiest pea.i of the earth.

Queer Salt.

In Lapland they have no salt, and the
bark of the fir tree is used as a substi-
tute. The Lapps peel the bark from the
trunk of the tree, carefully remove the
epidermis, and then divide the inner
bark into quite a number of very thin
layers.
During the brief but extremely hot
Lapland summer the layers are exposed
to the sun until thoroughly dried; then
they are torn into narrow strips and
placed in boxes made of fresh bark
taken from other trees. Deep holes are
then dug in the sand, and the bark
boxes are buried in them, where they
are allowed to remain for about three
days.
The second day fires are made over
places where the boxes are buried and
kept burning briskly for several hours.
The heat penetrates deep into the sand,
turns the fir bark deep red color and
gives to it a pleasing taste and odor
Finally the boxes are unearthed, the fir
strips are pounded OF ground into a
coarse powder, and the Lapps use it
just as we do salt, only much more spar
ingly, because it is so troublesome to
prepare. -Philadelphia Times. =

Some of the Curious and Commonplace
Uses to Which 1t Is Put.
Incandescent electric lights are used
to illuminate the eyes Of mounted ami
mals-bears, tigers and lions-shown by
fu1riers Here obviously light with
flame would not do, while the incandes-
cent light answers the purpose we'll and
conveniently. The wire is run from the
head down through the animals body
and out through one of its feet to con-
nection with the service wire of the
store.
Incandescent lights are used in refrig-
wholesale dealer in cut flowers and the
butcher. Their use in sidewalk show,
cases is familiar; in dressing show win
dows the flexible connection admits of
placing the light where it is wanted
with each new trimming of the window
They are used in electric signs, some
of which are permanent, while others
are formed of letters that are movable,
like types, so that the sign can be read
lily changed as often as may be desired
Electric numbers are made in the same
way.
One may see a painter at work at
night in a store, paint brush in one
hand and electric light-with the wire
trailing away back of HMM the
other, to enable him to see the better in
some nook or Granny that he is painting
The incandescent lamp is used to
light sidewalk awnings. The lamps are
strung along a wire hung under the
ridge pole inside the awning. The wire
and lamps are simply taken in when the
awning is. Movable billboards are il

EUGENE FIELDS HOME


His Many Queer Clocks and His Library
Of Rare Books.
One should not always Judge man
by his house, but in the case Of Eugene
Field it seemed as if his house were a
part Of him. It is an old fashioned two
story farmhouse with wide porch, to
which has been added large circular
! wing with an outside chimney such as
the southerners love. AS you enter the
hall you notice an deliberately orna-
mented old English tall clock Of the
kind usually known in this country as
"grandfather's clock. . It is one Of
three such clocks in the house; a second
stands on stair landing, after the
manner Of Longfellow's odd Clock On
the STAIR" and third was in Eugene
Fields sleeping room. The last one has
gong in it like country dinner bell
and clangs the hour with a loud metallic
ring.
In the same room he had freak
clock" made entirely Of wood, that ticks
like a hammer striking hard wood. In
the library there is quaint little one
pade with a seesaw-a wee boy and
girl sitting upon a log to regulate the
pendulum. This is very we'll behaved
little piece of mechanism, as it makes
no noise and is really pretty. Contrasted
with it,. standing near Fields writing
table, is plain New England kitchen
clock such as our grandmothers used in
their light, airy Kitchens. 1t is a me-
dunn sized affair Of mahogany with
glass door, on the lower half of which
are painted impossible red roses and
forgetmenots. It is good old domestic
clock, and went on faithfully ticking
away when the others were cranky and
would not keep the time regularly.
AS you enter the house the library is
on the left hand. All around the walls
of the room are bookcases. Suppose we
look at the case beyond the window,
which might be called the fairy corner.
Here are gathered books of fairy lore
from all parts of the world, for there
was hardly an old bookstore in London,
Paris or Berlin which Mr.. Field did not
know we'll. In this wonderful fairy COR
ner are Cossack fairy tales, eastern fairy
tales, legends of the French provinces,
legends of Ireland, Norway, Germany,
Spain, New England and all the modern
English fairy stories. Mary J. Reid

A NEW AIR SHIP.

Indiana Aeronauts Believe They Have
Solved the Problem.
L1GoN1ER, Ind, Aug. 18.-Cusab
brothers, aeronauts, of Walkerton, are
constructing an air ship. The ship con-
sists of a cigar-shaped balloon, with a
car underneath. The balloon will be Is
feet long and feet in diameter, made
of oiled silk. The car will be 5 feet
long. A battery for the manufacture
of gas will be placed in the car, which
will supply the ship with a continuous
stream of gas. There will be one pro-
peller at the rear Of the ship and two in
front. The air ship is being built for
public tests, and if it proves satisfactory
the Cusab brothers are confident they
can solve the problem of aerial naviga-
ton.

BERLIN, Aug. 18.-As result of the
agitation in newspaper circles and

of the alleged amalgamation of the last
three of the independent oil firms with
the Standard Oil company, and the re-

controls the petroleum market, it is now
announced that it is possible that the
government will take steps to facilitate
the importation of Galician oil. It is
also rumored that an attempt will be
made to impose, an almost prohibitive
duty on American oil.
