SOLVED AT LAST.
Puzzle to the Music World Worked
Out by DR.. Hageman.

Cincinnati, Oct. 5.-A patent has been
allowed to DR.. S. A. Hageman of this
city on his invention which is designed
TO correct the false intonation of the
tempered scale in which all pianos
now play so as to make the piano rem
dered music in the true scale raising
that instrument to the level Of the vio-
lin and other stringed instruments in
this respect
DR. Hageman is a half brother to the
late Rev. David Swing of Chicago. The
problem which his invention claims to
have solved is one that has puzzled the
musical world ever since the piano has
been in existence.

DR.. Thomas F. Rumbold, in a paper
on this subject, attributes the nervous
prostration commonly attributed to
''overwork" to chronic nasal inflamma-
ton, the most potent and frequent fac
tor in the production Of which he as
serts to be the result of excuses Of
alcohol, tobacco, and 'colds" induced
thereby. These practices, he says, in
crease the congestion Of the nasal mu-
cous membrane. producing a tendency
to "colds," causing vascular paresis,
which, commencing at the periphery,
gradually travels to the brain vascular
system, and the author holds that this
disturbance of the cerebral circulation
is the real reason of the irritability or
temper, inability to hold the mind con-
tinuously on a definite subject, Sleep
lessness. forgetfulness. desire for
change and excitement. accompanied
by physical exhaustion and loss Of am
bition, which are commonly attributed
by the physician to the continuous ap-
plication of the mind to business and
professional duties.

The Two Tone Wax Seal

The two tone seal in wax on an en-
velope made to match the two tone
monogram on the paper is mystery TO
any one not in the secret. For instance
a silver monogram and raised orna-
mentation on a blue background is
easily duplicated in the seal. The
background is of wax to match the
background of the monogram. When
ready to seal the envelope dip the seal
in the oil and wipe it quite dry, except
the engraving, where the oil remains.
Then dip the oily seal into the silver
powder and brush across the seal, leav-
ing no silver except in those same in
dentations of the engraved monogram.
Melt the wax and drop it on to the
proper place and seal as usual. The oil
will have taken up the silver powder
into the monogram and the warm wax
taken it out of the monogram. so that
all the raised ornamentation is coated
over with the silver powder.

'@He never marched with the regi.

Gap, but stayed behind, and when the
camp equipment was shipped to Mid

personally I would have taken him
into the service had he been physically

Preservation of Meat.

The general opinion on the preserva-
ton of meat is that the decomposition
OF the blood is the cause of much Of
the trouble experienced in keeping
meats in fresh and wholesome state.
A Danish scientist gives some points
on the preservation of this important
article of food The methods of killing
the animal, according to his theory,
are greatly at fault The animal must
be stunned, not killed. and instantly
the ready assistant with sharp knife
cuts to the heart and opens the ven
tricle. This allows the blood to rush
out, completely clearing the veins.
Then a solution of salt. depending in
strength upon the length of time the
meat is to be kept is thrown by pow
