A nas Frm of preeth.

The ''pAeumai cphor,' an Austrian in- veE:ion for enabling miners, fremen. etc. to breathe when surrounded by after damp. smoke or noxious fumes of any kind. consists of an air-tight rub Der bag containing a steel bottle of pure oxygen at a pressure of 100 liters, and metal-protected glass bottle con- taining a 25 per cent. solution of caustic soda. The oxygen can be admitted by a hand screw into the bag and drawn into the mouth through a rubber tube, the nose being closed by clip. The turn of another hand screw breaks the glass bottle. allowing the caustic soda to flow out and be absorbed by knitted network in the bag 10 absorb the car bonic acid exhaled allowing the oxy- gen to be rebreathed, the apparatus being capable of furnishing oxygen enough to last from 30 to 90 minutes, as has been attested by numerous expert ments.-ChicaQo Chronicle.

Not long ago 9,00o schoolchildren in Utica were asked by Superintendent Griffith to give their written opinion anonymously, it is supposed as to whether one pupil should testify against another. Voluntary telling, CT 'tattling," was not meant in the test, but only Is per cent of the children noted the distinction, so that the result may be accepted as the children's opin- ion of the ''tattler." The question was asked whether it was right or wrong, and it appears that of the 2,s34 who an- swered the qu stion 494 boys, or 3s per cent. and 375 girls, or 25 per cent. con sidered it right to tell--the largest per centage of both regarding 1t as wrong.
