WINDOWS OF CLOTH.
A substitute for Glass Which Never Leak
$fTp and Will Not Break.

Windows of cloth instead OF glass
sounds like an~impossibility, and yet
it is a reality, and the employment Of
such a substitute is an acknowledged
success. It is not ordinary cloth, but
such as is translucent, through which
light comes just as through glass. To
all intents and purposes this cloth win
dow is similar to the sheets of glass,
and lasts ever so much longer, while
still having just as good an appearance.
Now the remarkable feature Of this
new fabric is that it never leaks, does
not break and is nearly one-third
cheaper than glass. A large sl<ylight
composed of the new substitute for
glass, which has been in constant use
long enough to show it's worth, remains
in perfect condition, not one cent hav-
ing been spent on it for repairs.
The material has many advantage:
claimed for it, chief of which is that by
it's employment in train she..1, freight
houses, large auditcriums and public
buildings having skylights of large
area, the light weight of the material
permits of a simple, Inexpensive and
light form of skylight construction.
The joints are made water-tight by a
special method used with this material.
The translucent fabric consists of a
transparent material spread over steel
wire cloth, with - meshes per inch.
which gives the panels flexible and
elastic quality permitting its adjust
ment to any shape that the -oof struc-
ture may take, owing to the expansion
or contraction of the framework. The
fabric is strong and is made in panels
1S by SO inches in size, and can carry
weight of over 400 pounds per square
foot. re-. ~. .
1t might be naturally assumed that
the translucent qualities of the fabric
would be much inferior to that of glass
but a careful conDarison has shown
that the amount of light which it trans
mits equals that of the ribbed glass
one-quarter of an inch thick. AS it is
treated with a special preparation, the
fabric is irpervious to cindsrs or even
to hot Goals dropped upon it, and will
burn only when set fire to at the
edges. Even then the flames will max"
slow progress, thus furnishing timely
warning.
Another argument in it's favor is that
It is greatly superior to even the fines
glass as a covering for art galleries ans
studios, for the reason that it will never
| leak. and therefore serves as a perfect
| protection to the valuable works of art
Sometimes a heavy deposit of snow
serves to crack the heaviest glass sky
light. and often injuries paintings an6
tapestries beyond restoration.-N. Y

she Object. to Cigarettes.

A ridiculous rumor is current that
the recent illness of the czarina has
been due TO slowPoisoning, the arsenic
being administered-so it is said-by
u trusted lady -in-waitiag in the en-
press morning cup Of chocolate. Sen
sational rumors of this kind are con-
tinually cropping up. and the mere
fact that the czarina has long been
in i'll health was quite sufficient basis
en- whichsto found this highly colored
story. That the, empress is unpopular
is certainly not true. On the contrary
she has won the confidence Of her hus-
bands people by her gentleness and
tact, her edict against her ladies-in-
waiting smoking cigarettes being the
one trivial grievance they have against
her. gEs

Mexican Burials.

The Mexicans have a queer way of
burying the dead. The corpse is tight
ly wrapped in century-plant mating
and is placed in coffin hired for about
shilling. One or two natives, as the
case may. be, place the coffin on their
beads and go at a trot TO the grave,
where the body is; inferred, and the
coffin is then returned. The wealthy
class use the tram cars as hearses, and
the friends follow beside the car on
foot.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

The Trolley Car. Uses.

The trolley car has been utilized for
NIL sorts of local announcements, with
excellent results. especially in small
communities, doing in its way much
of the work that the old bell crier was
supposed to exist for. says the Pitts
burgh Dispatch. On rainy days a vii
lage car will often save the school chill
dren useless tramp by carrying o
placard with the inscription on, mo
School To-Day" and In some places the
local weather bureau now notifies the
road OF prospective meteorological
changes, and the cars. as they go out
of the car barn mount the appropriate
signal in the shape OF flag flying be-
tween the trolley pole and the car. Peo-
pie can thus tell by "a glance at the pass
ing car whether to carry an umbrella
or not, and what sort of an overcoat
TO put on.
