A Railway Nursery Is the Newest Thing
on Wheels.
A travelling nursery is to take its
place alongside of the barber shop, bath
room, etc. on our fast trains 1t will
take up about the space of the private
stateroCm Of the ordinary sleeping car
The walls of the nursery are to be
padded and the floor thickly carpeted.
At each end of the compartment are
two coy cots for the smaller children
to recline on while watching the games
of the older ones. Ottomans and easy
chairs are disposed about the floor. Each
car containing the nursery attachment
will carry matron or nurse, with sup
plies of milk and other edibles
A medicine chest with simple RENE
dies and miniature toy shop supplied
with everything from rattles to picture
books and fairy tales are adjuncts of
the nursery Nothing, in short, will be
missing that will add to the comfort
and amusement of very young travellers

PoisOns In Ink.

1t has recently been proved by micro
scopic examination that ink is liable to
contain pathogenic bacteria DR.. Marp-
mann of Liepsic has lately published
the results of examination of 81 sam
pies OF ink used in schools. Saprophytes,
bacteria and micrococci were found in
most OF them. In two instances the doc
tor succeeded in cultivating bacillus
from migrosin ink which proved fatal
to mice within four days. But most
bacteria are harmless, and it has been
ascertained by the actual experiments
of some eminent New York scientists
that in the many varieties of ink used
in that city, which they tested there
were no disease germs. However, a pen
which has been dipped in ink should
never be moistened with the tongue

Body Restored to strength.

Last October Albert johnson, with u
back broken at the lumba vertebrP,
two broken heels and body paralyzcd
from the chest down, was admitted to
the Long Island College hospital, Brook
Ign. Now DR.. Gels, the house surgeon,
entertains hopes that he may entirely
recover.
For three months the paralysis was
complete. He was placed on water
bed with his legs in splints A bed sore
soon made its appearance over the frac-
ture, and gangrene set III in both feet
These We're remedied without operation
In January johnson was able to move
his feet, by the middle of the month
his knees, and now he can raise and
bend his legs from the hips
In April he was placed on a regular
bed. Now, with assistance, he can
move around on crutches. The fractures
have healed, the muscles are coming
into use, and weakness seems to be the
greatest trouble. Should his recovery be
complete it will be an evidence of great
surgical skill. Exchange

The new luminant-acetylen
now a rival, to which the name of Gu
reka gas has been given. This gas is the
invention of Mr. Hector de Fazi of
Montefiascone, Italy. 1t is said to be
obtained as follows: Lime as pure as
possible is employed as base, colo
phony and calcium carbide being add
ed. One thousand parts of the mixture
ready for use consist of 900 of quick
lime, 80 of colophony and so of calcium
carbide. There is said to be no fear of
explosion by mixing with air, no heat
ing OF water and no special burner need
ed. One thousand parts of the mixture
give 60 liters of gas at pressure of 35
millimeters of water The photometric
intensity of the fame is stated to be %. a
candle hours, and the same amount of
calcium carbide employed singly would
only give Is candle hours. 1t is claimed
that eureka gas is so per cent cheaper
than acetylene, or that at equal cost it
will give half as much more light.-Ip.
