 A typewriter bicycle has been in- vented. It consists of a large type writer mounted on a seryiceable wheel which can follow the movements of an army. The machine can be operated while it and it's rider are held erect by portable props. It has worked satisfac- torily in England. Electric bicycles have been made. but are not popular. In France q pneumatic trictcle hearse has been built. A velocipede ambulance IS in use in the Berlin hospitals. It is run on five wheels, four supporting the body of the ambulance. while the front one is used for steering. Trans portation is accomplished with more ease and comfort than when horses are used.

 Observations made at the Lowell observatory of Mars confirm the opin- ion that seasonal changes occur on that planet similar to those with which we are familiar. as the sprouting, growth and decay of vegetation. As the canals are only visible at certain periods, it is concluded that fringes of vegetation spring up along the banks when the water comes and so help define them to the human eye. An ex- traordinary phenomenon noticed this year is the doubling of the canals. A canal which had been a single thin dark line is replaced in a day or so by two that for thousand miles or more run exactly parallel, though separated This adds to the arguments in favor of eXtant life on Mars.

On sandhill at height of 90 feet the machine was lifted. MT. Herring fitted himself under it and allowed the wind to raise it. He made two or three quick steps, when the ma chine scared from the ground and darted through the air. To stop the machine the operator tilted the ap- paratus slightly upward in front, when it coasted slowly to the ground. It has the general form of an albatross, but is furnished with seven wings.

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an intiamed condition of the mu- eous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal con dition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

rhrnnrh St. Bernard Pass.

Mrs. Herman Davis, of New York, is the first woman to ride bicycle through the great St. Bernard pass. She and her husband, who is a professor of astronomy in Columbia college, trav- eled 2,000 miles on their wheels in Eu- rope during their summer outing, mak- ing about 65 miles each day. When she dismounted at this historic hospice of St. Bernard the good priest who wei comed them exclaimed; "A woman! You are the first woman who ever came over that road on a wheel. And you are an American. We'll, we might have known an American woman would be the first to accomplish that feat. There are but few men who have ever tried it"

duce these grand results, but in news paper article space can be given to but few of the greatest achievements.
 Foremost, last January, was Prof Roentgen, who at that time, made pulp lie his discovery of the X ray. One set of students had for & long time been giving their attention to the study Of the phenomena of phosphoreseencea and fuorescence, while Dr. Crookes and others were experimenting with tubes, the material of eleetrode, and the in- ereasing and diminishing of the in- tensity of the electrical discharge. But to Prof. Roentgen came success. He inelosed an excited vacuum tube in blaclSened cardboard treated with bari um platinoeyanide. The cathode beam was accompanied by new and strange radiance, which, although of fuorescent and photographic quality, can scarcely be any form of light, It is not susceptible of polarization or re- fraction. After these facts became known there was an enormous amount of activity in the physio-medical world, and there seems almost no limit to the uses to which scientists may put the rays. Tesla and Edison have devoted months of patient study of the laws governing th n. Mir. Edison has found 12o different L. ystals that will fuoresce under the X ray.
 In spite of all efforts to improve the quality and increase the efficiency of the incandescent electric lamp, hereto fore over 90 per cent. of the energy ex- pended has appeared as heat and not light. Now it seems possible that "cold light" or light in which the waste of energy in the form of heat is reduced to a minimum, has been obtained. D. MacFarlane Moore, of Newark, N. J., em- ploys vacuum tube in which the light is produced by the passage of the elec- tric discharge through the raretied gas of the tube. In such light there is no combustion and but little heat. Tesla has attempted this form of lighting, but the results have been unsatisfactory. MT. Edison has made a contribution to this problem in his fuorescent bulb. The commercial possibilities of these inventions are not yet known.
 Last June the results of experiments conducted for the last five years at Cor nell college were made known. They seem to prove that electricity may be made to stimulate the growth of plants.

Our Every Day Lives.

It is the road we are travelling, tue everyday trend of our lives, which de- cides our moral and spiritual quality. The ends which we propose to our selves are but points in our lives, while life itself is made up of the means we take to further them. All neglect of these means, all indiffer- ence to them, all undue haste to get through them, or to brush them aside Rs tiresome or unimportant. must therefore be fatal to the value of life and the growth of character.

7 Those receiving bright electric rays at night and sunshine in the daytime grow much faster than those which do hot receive the artificial stimulant. By applying the arc light direct to plants many ran to seed before edible leaves were formed. On towering plants the theet was wonderful. Blooms were hastened, their number multiplied and color made more brilliant, but they Iaded sooner. Prof. Lipman, the french physicist, in August, exhibited oelore the Royal society of London some specimens of colored photographs, produced by the direct action of lu- nilnous rays. They were obtained by slngle exposure. The color is due to physical texture produced in the photo sfaphic film by the light, and not to any deposited pigment. The chemical uctlon of light upon the agents is the
 Tane as in ordinary photography; the inherent effects are due to a physical Iesult brought about by having a metallic mirror in contact with the pso5ographic film during the exposure sl the plate. The result consists of so,orless. brownish-blacl deposits of ssaueed silver spread in series of their
