According to Kentucky paper,
when the telephone was first intro
duced in that State an old farmer who
did not exactly understand the work
ing of the invention bought new pair
of boots for his son, who lived down in
Texas. He hung the boots across the
wire at sundown one evening. During
the night some one took the boots and
placed pair of old ones across the
wire. Next morning the old gentle
man went out and, to his delight, he
saw the old boots. He fastened into
the house exclaiming to his wife: "Say,
Sal, this here tellerphone is the best
thing yet. John got his boots last
night, and I'm blasted if he didn't
send the old uns home"

A Queer Stove to Produce Coal.


1t has often been wondered that Yam
kee ingenuity has not long since dis.
covered way to modify the heat Of

by means OF salt, a small quantity of
ice and patent chemical, he proposes
to produce an intense degree Of cold.
The stove can be cooled so that II a
hand be placed upon it the skin will in
stantly be stripped as In contact with
hot iron. It Is claimed that with this
stove the temperature Of room in hot
test weather can be run down to any
point desired. If this apparatus proves

Writing ON Glass.

The easiest way to write or paint on
glass is to take solution Of fish glue
and distribute It with a soft brush over
the surface Of the glass. OF course,
the solution must be carefully filtered,
and when It 10 applied to the glass pane
the glass must be held over stove or
lamp in a slanting direction to allow
the surplus solution to flow or and to
dry thoroughly without streaking.
When the pane has been prepared in
this way it is ready to write or paint
upon. Even writing Of microscopic
minuteness can be applied to the pre-
pared glass surface without the danger
of the ink running. On this surface
water colors, India ink and any kind
Of pigment may be employcd.-Phila-
