A New Fuel.
l9S

MANY attempts have been made to
.nse turf or peat as fuel, but this mate
rial has never obtained great impor-
lance, because in comparison to its
smal heating value, it's volume was
loo large, and consequently the trans
portatiOn was found too expensive;
moreover, the considerable amount OF
ashes it produced made it impractical
BILE to use in any quantity. Suddenly
id seems the time has arrived for peat
to enter into competition with, and in
some cases to substitute all other fuels.
AN invention, the economical impor-
tance of which is inestimable at the
present moment, was recently patented
s,Dy Mr.. ROscndahl, of Christinstad,
Norway, which country probably pos
sesses the largest deposits of peat in
the world. His method of making a
practical fuel of peat simply consists
in heating the peat in iron ovens to
250 degrees centigrade, and when this
Temperature is reached to close all the
valves of the oven, the temperature of
l25O degrees being kept up tor seven
hours. This process changes the mate
rial considerably, and the tar and ssgas-
eous products of the coal-like remainder
represent so per cent of the whole. A
chemical analysis of the product, made
at the Christiania University, showed
the prepared peat to contain So per
cent of pure carbon, 16 per cent of
oxygen, 6 per cent of hydrogen, 4 per
cent water and, what is most surpris-
ling, only 5per cent of substances which
|will remain as residue in the shape of
ashes. The new peat-coal has the,
.Oretijal heating value of $500 caloric
nnits, which is equal to that of medium
grade anthracite coal. The cost of
,peat-cOal, however, is so small that it
can be sold at profit for $1.75 per ton,
while an equal quantity of anthracite
coal costs from 81 to So. By the pro-
cess OF Rosendhal, even in it's presen
crude state, the production of peat coal
costs but rs cents per ton, and it is very
likely that even this cost will be con-
lsiderably reduced before long. Tests
have been made with the new material
at the Krupp works at Essen, Germany,
and 1T was found that the new fuel
gave better results than either anthra.

for the production of Bessemer steel.

TINY LITTLE BRAINS.
They Are Scattered Throughout the
Human Body.


DIR. William A. Hammond, the cele-
brated neurologist says the ganglia.
which runs like little threads of silk
throughout the body, are tiny little
brains, largely made up of the saEc
kind of gray matter that composes thH
thinking part of the brain. While the
sensitive ganglia send their little tend
-'ils into every portion of the body,
there is am especially large amount o.
them about the heart, and, real =,
according to Dr. Hammond, the human
heart actually thinks on account o'
it. When we are frightened, the heart
almost stops beating.
How could it do it, unless it really
thought? 1t would be impossible.
The heart brains are the little gray
ganglia, and they recognize the emo
tions of joy, or pain or fright by sending
quick throbs and thrills through the
heart, which Dr.. Hammond calls q sec
ondarv brain. 1t is well known that the
ancicnts believed different organs OF
the body 70 be possessed of IacH+a! at

Az immense amount of gray matter

as if the brain itself had been struck.
Wherever the ganglia eongregate is

prominent function within our bodies.

1t is not likely that the public will
read, or even see, the elaborate report
on the oyster and the typhoid question
Just issued by the local government
board, and therefore we beg them not
to be alarmed at the comments that arc.
appearing in the press on the subject.
Report does not warrant an alarmist
view 1t contains, it is true, the abun-
dant justification for having raised the
question. Oysters are now proved. not
only in this country but in France and
the United States, to be capable of
causing, and to have actually caused,
typhoid fever. And the investigation
of the oyster beds on our coasts, carried
out by DR.. Bulstrode for the local gov
ernment board, shows that in several
places oysters are exposed to the risk
of conveying the disease. They are
placed for fattening in shallow water
near the foreshore, and so close to sewer
outfalls as to be pretty constantly
bathed by sewage. The worst places in
this respect are Southend, Grimsby,
Shoreham and the Isle of Wight. On
the other hand. Whitstable and several
other famous beds are beyond suspi-
cion, while a third class is only theoret-
ically open to danger. But the most
comforting point brought out by the
report is that even in the worst cases
the danger can be removed without
difficulty. Now that the government
has pointed the way, it is for the local
authorities to carry out the necessary
reforms, and for oyster consumers to
insist that they are carried out.-St.

FOOTBALL AND BuooMERS.
College Girls Upset Vermont Propriety-
Shocked the Village.

Shocked the Village.
One after another the sIaid old New
England institutions have fallen into
innocuous desuetude, and now a Yer
mont female seminary has been IN
vaded by the bloomer and the football.
St. Johnsbury, VT, is eminently re-
spectacle.
So it was that the statement that a
member of the seminary's contingent
had looked seriously upon bloomers and
that talk of football club had really
been heard created the same sort of al
atmosphere about the town that the
finding of an old witch did in the old
days of Salem. 1t was all true, how
ever, both the statement and the look.
What is more, a football team YVES
promptly organized and all of the mem
bers wore boomers. Even worse than
that, the new organization actually Sc
lected a plot of land back of the Fair
banks mansion to practice upon
Here was absolute defiance of all the
social and community ethics that could
be compiled in the bluest book that
ever St. Johnsbury heard of. 1t was
positively awful. 1t was almost as bad
as if somebody had said that Boston
was not classic or that the university
at Burlington was incapable of giving
a student the very highest education.
Gossip grew rife ard the football girls
laughed att. They were nos old fogies,
they said. They knew thing or two
and were not at al ashamed of it. As
for the harm in blooIacTs, where was
it? And as to the football and kicks,
why, there was nothing indicate
about that One Of the girls whose
father lives over al Barre said that just
before she came to tle school her father
told her she was the hardest kicker he
had ever heart! Of Why. then, should
they complain CT her kicking foot
ball?
This was the burden of the song of
the football girls. There was no song
among the e'townspeople, however: oIly
lamentations and dire for"bodings
Despite til this, the girls Lave con-
t;nued to play ball in the airbarks
lot. and, 80 far as reported, not single

son that is the home of tie grand
panjand rum of St. Johnsbur,- society
has been broken, for the girls are all
pretty and they don't kick their foot
ball in the direction of aristocracy's
josshouse-
Thus it s.that the bloomer, the foot
ball and the female seminary form a
triumvirate which makes the average
Vermonter stand aghast. Knowing all
this, there can be realized in small de-
gree the heroism displayed by the girls
who kicked the football around the
Fairbanks lot. They formed regular
eleven, and, of course, in very deli
cate way, they fought over the ball in
regulation fashion. They play football
at Vassar and the sport is not unknown
at Wellesley and Smith, but none of
them can kick that ball any better than
the st. Johnsbury girls.-N. Y. Herald.
