SHE STOOD IN X RAYS.
And Thus Delayed the New Scheme
of Inspecting Baggage.

And Thus Delayed the New schem.
of Inspecting Baggage.
They had just got the new scheme
for inspecting baggage by K rays in
operation and the naughty young
woman who had just got off the steam
er was waiting to have hers inspected,
Furthermore, she thought there had
been more delay than was necessary
and she was somewhat provoked. Con
sequently when one Of the officials mo-
toned her to step little to one side
she declined to move.
There was a short consultation
among the officials and one Of them
hnally advanced toward her.
IF madam would kindly" he be-
gun.
Sir she interrupted, haughtily.
1T would be a great favor if you
would move little" he said, rather
efficiently.

it decidedly presun,ptuous in you to
speak to me al ALL I've been waiting
here fifteen minutes for my baggage,
and during that time you haven't done
thing but stand there and look at me
and talk to the other inspectors
THE fact is" explained the man in
the same diffident way, as if something
worried him, that you are in the
way"
"Of what?" she asked. ''It seems to
me that you are the most impudent set
OF officials that I ever knew. The idea
of asking me to move as mere matter
OF convenience to you! There's plenty
of room to inspect the baggage without
annoying me, and you ought 10 be at
work at it now"
"But We can't" protested the man.
"You see we don't open the trunks any
more. We just put them under the X
rays and inspect them that way"
"Well, why don't you do it?' she de-
manded, irritably.
Because, Northumberland
The inspector fidgeted about ner-
vously.
Because" he continued at last,
you're standing right in the rays now,
where we want to put the trunks"
There was a scream and the place
was vacant.

Austria. imperial Pawnsnop.

Austria has an Imperial pawnshOp.
1t was established In Vienna in 1907,
when there was great distress among
empire. 1t was designed as way to
secure to the starving some means of
immediate relief, and by putting the
rate of interest as low as possible and
the valuations as high as possible, and
embodying in the system every ad-
vantage that could be given to those
who sought to make loans, it was found
to be so effective that it soon gained
the Imperial sanction, and it was not
long until it's managers We're made
public officials under the direction of
the Minister of the Interior. This is
substantially the status of the institu-
ton at this time. The rates are so low
that the business done ON the cheap
goods and chattels Of the poor could
not possibly make the establishment
self-sustaining; but people who have
been suddenly reduced In clrcum-
stances or who are temporarily embar-
raised keep the margins OH the right
side and enable the institution to keep
OPEN without the aid of q subsidy. In
the year 1893 total of SCOOPS articles
were pledged, and of these S4S,562
were redeemed, a remarkable redemp-
ton as compared with the proportions
Of the average pawnshop. The unre-
deemed pledges were sold at public
auction, and whenever they brought
more than the face of the pledge the
balance was set 10 the account of the
pledger, to be refunded amy time with
in three years.-I.ondon Standard.

Pearl Fishing in Lower California,

Pearl Fishing in Lower California.
The value of the pearls found during
1896 on the coast Of the gulf of Lower
California amounted to $350,O00. Be-
sides these, 5000 tons of nussel shells
were exported, the value of which was
estimated at further 81 ,25O,O 900. Pearl
fishing forms the sole occupation of the
natives, and La Paz, the capital for
this trade in the peninsula, is supported
entirely by this industry.

An engraving machine has recently
been put upon the market, designed to be
an adjunct to the equipment of the
progressive jeWeler. With it's aid the
jeweler can, after a few days of prac-
tice, engrave an initial Letter on spoons,
knives and forks, mark silver novelties,
engrave monograms or special designs on
glassware, souvenir spoons and the
thousand and one other articles which
he is called upon to treat. This latest
model is a happy combination of simple
elements, doing away with all belts, pull
leys or ans and comprises chiefly a
swinging vertical arm, to which is at
tached the graver and tracer. This, with
the bracket which holds the work, is
substantially all there is to the machine.
BY a very simple adjustment the graver
can be set at any angle desired, thus
presenting a broad cutting surface and
producing bright, fashy cuts. This is
a feature found only in this machine,
other machines having a vertical graver
which can cut only on the point and
make thin, scratchy lines. Another new
feature that will specially commend
itself to the busy man is a scale placed
on the vertical arm, so that the ma
different sizes of letters from the same
pattern of type. By consulting the let
ter gauge which is sem with the outfit,
showing the various sizes, the machine
can be set to the desired size in less than
half a minute.-Philadelphia Record.

Murderous onka

The Tshakmas a monkey of the bab-
Door family, which is rather common in
South Africa, has become a perfect
plague of the Transvaal farmers. This
ape has acquired the habit of killing
young lambs, not in order to eat their
meat, but simply to tear their sto1n-
ach and drink the milk contained there
i'll. Having acquired a passionate desire
for milk, and being unable to milk the
sheep themselves, they patiently wait I'M
til they see a lamb sucking milk from its
mother, and take it away as they would
a milk pail, which is thrown away after
the contents are consumed. The Tshak-
ma then takes to the cacti thickets,
which are inaccessible to human beings,
and furnish at the same time a refuge
and a source of food in the feshy leaves
and fruit for the monkie
The same ape has also quickly learned
to distinguish men from women. AT the
approach of a man they quickly flee,
while they allow women to come quite
near, paying no attention to them. The
farmers, however, have adapted them
selves to the circumstances, and when
lambs are missing from their flock they
don the skirts and bonnets of their
wives, and, taking up a gun, start in
pursuit of the mischievous animals

POISON FROM MILK FOODS
Sterilization SuccessfuI In Prevent-
ing Bacillus Growth Only.

An article in The Dietetic and Hygienic
Gazette puts the matter of poisoning from
ice cream and other milk foods in a COM
prehensive way, in a recent issue, knock
ing down, however, that prop of careful
housewives that scalding the cream or
milk lenders it safe.
Cases of poisoning attributable to ice
cream, cream puffs, and similar foods are
rather common, especially in the summer
season. Acute poisoning by milk and milk
products is usually sudden in onset and
violent in character, resembling in part
poisoning due to mineral irritants, in part
cholera morbus. Symptoms recalling those
due to the common vegetable poisons are
also seen. Many of the cases get no fur
Their notice than newspaper reports, and
there is sometimes much misrepresentation
as tc the cause of the symptoms. Metallic
irritants nave nothing to do with these
cases. The suppositions that have been
occasionally made, namely, that cream
puffs may be contaminated by copper alb
sorbed from the pans in which they are
baked. or that ice cream becomes poison
Gus by solution of tin or lead through a
galvanic action between the %stirrer and
the can, are without foundation and may
be dismissed at once. 1t has long been
known that bacteria are in some way con-
nected with the poisonous effects, and
Vaughan. several years ago, isolated from
various milk products. which had pro-
duced poisoning, a definite body to which
he gave the name of t~yrotoxicon, and
which he showed to be capable of produc-
ing very marked symptoms in animals
Other observers have followed up Vaug-
hans work moreor less closely, and many
cases of food poisoning have been ascribed
to the presence of this body, doubtless
often with justification. 1t is for
tunate that poisoning of this class is not
usually fatal. Itfs more common than is
usually suspected. for many cases are
mild, and are ascribed to Indigestion;
others are diagnosed as cholera morbus.
The point to be especially noted is that
there is no longer any reason to seek for
metallic poisons in samples of food that
cause this class of symptoms. Such an
alytic Investigations may be expected to
result negatively. Vaughan and Perkins
found that bacillus is killed by a tempera-
ture of IS degrees c. q66 degrees FL, but
that the poisonous products are not de-
stroyed by even fifteen minutes boiling.
ordinary sterilization or pasteuriza-
ton will not render infected milk safe.
but will prevent further development of
the poisonous material.

when not necessary. With the chain,
the power from the crank axle is con-
veyed to the rear wheel axle direct. With
bevel gears. the power is first passed
from the sprocket bevel to the shaft, then
from the shaft to the rear wheel. In
consequence the power is forced to turn
two corners before 1t reaches it's destlna,
ton. Another fact, admitted by all
mechanics, which prevents the possibility
OF the bevel gear being a success, is that
it is impossible to cut bevels correctly on
milling machines. To be perfect they
must be planed by hand, tooth by tooth,
the expense of which process precludes
it's consideration in bicycle construction.
