EXPERIMENTING VIII COLD.
The Interesting Observations of q Berlin
PrOtesROr.

The Interesting Observations of q Berlin
Professor.
The laboratory of Prof Pictet, at Ber-
lin, is designed for the investigation of
the effects of cold. The refriperating
machinery, driven by several powerful
engines, keeps the objects under OBJ
servation ut any temperature between
20 degrees and 200 degrees below zero
Cent. as long as may be required. The
cooling is effected by the evaporation of
liquids, and is divided into three stages,
each with its special apparatus. For
the first stage is used the mixture of
sulphurous and carbonic acids known
as 'Pictet's fluid" which is condensed
at q pressure Of about two atmospheres
in spiral tube cooled by water. Laugh.
ing gas (oxide Of nitrogen) is the liquid
chosen for the second stage. It is con.
dcnscd at pressure of ten or twelve
Ctmospherea in q tube kept at about so
degrees below zero by the action of the
first circuit. For the third stage atrnos-
pheric air is employed, and passes into
the liquid state ut pressure of seven
ty-tivc atmospheres when the tempera-
ture is kept at 1856 degrees below zero
by the other circuits. The evaporation
of the liqueficd air gives cold of about
200 degrees below zero. Absolute zero
is placed at 2TS degrees below zero
Cent, but Prof. Pictet regards 255 de-
grecs below zero as about the lowest
attainable artificial temperature. One
of the effects of great cold has been the
showing Of quicksilver in beautiful,
fcrn-likc crystals. Glyeerine also has
been crystallized; and cognae has been
given by freezing the peculiar mellow.
ness commonly attained only by long
keeping. The most important result
thus far, however, has been the purif.
cation OF chloroform, the crystals which
form in the commercial chloroform al
about 6s degrees below zero being al.
most absolutely pure.

features; she felt little thrill along
her nerves as she glanced at the woman
who had not spoken to her own hus-
band for ten years. This woman did
not look capable of such weird obsti-
macy; she was pretty, as Mrs. Armil
aad said, but with more delicate and
.efned beauty than the minister had
| expected "She loolSs-whom does she
look like?" thought the minister; IT
declare it is Mona Lisa. She has Just
that mysterious SMILE"
Perhaps photograph of Mona Lisa
hanging side by side on the wall with
the Archangel Michael suggested the
comparison. She wondered il it was
Mrs. Rogers taste that had selected
them, or the quiet paper on the walls,
the little dash Of color in crimson
drapery for the ugly mantle behind the
stove, the pretty wicker chair in the
corner, the plants in the window. A
small library, she was sure, belonged
to the husband. ''No," she remem-
bered, Mrs. Armil said that she fur
nished the room to suit him.
And after glance at the wife's tot
let, brown alpaca gown made up with
profuse draperies and trimmings of
red velvet, she gave Mr.. Rogers credit
for any evidence of taste.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Armil, who wished
to do honor to her guest, had intro
duced her. like the columns of a coun-
try paper rs REV. Brainerd."
She now set the conversational ball
in motion with: REV, Brainerd's been
interested in the restitution round
here"
Eyes, it's bad" said Rogers, cross
ing his legs and nervously twisting his
fingers, tits bad, but we could get
along If we could get more time on our
mortgage"
Are the farms about here mort
gagedP"
Eyes, ma'am. You may say all about
here are. Pearl" addressing Mrs.
Armil, "have you hoard?"
Mrs. Arlnil told more in detail the
story that she had told Miss Brainerd
The interest in the mans eyes was
plain, and though yelled the same in
terest was in the woman's.
Amt you had letter from him
YETI" said Mrs. Arrnil, with the sympa-
thy of safe people for others troubles.
NO" answered Mrs. Rogers, mot
yet; but we sent Leon to the town to
see if we had letter"
Then the talk drifted into general
tiles interrupted by the sound of hoofs.
Its Leon" exclaimed Rogers, He
went hastily to the door.
The child Of this strange couple came
in. He looked like his mother and hig
father, delicate like the one, darls-haired
and smiling like the other. His eyes
turned from the man to the woman in a
cordial glance that embraced them
both.
"Yes, got the letter." he said.
Then, for the first time perceiving the
guest, he made his awkward schoolboy
bow to the lady and submitted TO be
kissed by Mrs. Armil.
I'VE have mortgage on hand, too,
you see" said Rogers; twill you ladies
excuse Ine?" Here he tore open the let
ter with fingers plainly a tremble.
There was no attempt at disguise;
every woman in the room stared at
him. For him, his jaw fell; he grew
paler, until his skin took the tint of
gray ashes. His first action was to
hand Leon the sheet with its type-
written copy and engraved heading.
Give it to your MOTHER he said.

too" she said; II want to speak to my
husband"
"Oh Lord!" gasped Mrs. Armil. But
Miss Brainerd had her word ready:
Tell him please that know Mr. Raj
mund, well; he is in my congregation;
and will engage that he shan't fore
close the mortgage"
''Wcll, Lord be praised! You're do
ing right, Hetty," called Mrs. Armil at
the empty door, as soon as astonishment
released her tongue; "better late than
never. But to think of her giving in
now when hes lost all his property,
and him the helplessest man alive!'
Il think that was why" laughed
Miss Braincrd; 'such slight things are

Icons eyes shone as ne obeyed; he
was a child and hopeful. Mrs. Rogers
read the letter; she may have had more
sclf-control than be, for there was no
change, only rigid settling of the
mu5cles. ''She is thinking that she
told him so, . reflected the minister
Ma" Icons voice broke the silence,
won't you tell me?"
There amt no reason why they
shouldn't all hear it," said the man.
He says that he was expecting to ex-
end, knowing we'd had hard times,
bat he read my name in the list Of
representatives that voted for the stay
law. He doesn't consider his property
safe in state where they pass such
laws, or with man that win vote for
them" He swallowed something in
his throat. II guess" he went on,
there's lots of fellows feel like he
does, and lots of poor farmers will have
to give up for the same reason. If it
was only me. it wouldn't be so bad;
but" for the first time he looked at
his wife. She returned his look. dull
red creeping into her check; nor did
she take her eyes off his face while he
remained in the room-''it isn't only
me. If we have made mistake we
have ruined all the others along with
u.s."
THAT'S jest So" said Mrs. Armil,
heartily. Rogers smiled little bitter
ly. What a tragedy the mans life had
been, Miss Brainerd thought. What
loncliness He had in him, she decided
in flush of sympathy, rarcr and finer
qualities of nature, of affection and as
piration, than his unforgiving wife
could ever comprehend.
Il seem to have missed it all round"
he went on. II did try, Hetty, and if l
had got she farm cleared off meant to
have asked you if-if-things couldn't
be different; there was school we
wanted to send Leon" he did not
know how to finish the sentence, ap-
parently; but the mute entreaty of the
look turned on his wife's unmoved face
awakened Miss Brainerd's indignant
pity. WELL" he said, quietly, there is
always the prairie schooner for me to
take to; for don't think was cut out
to make laws. I can't harm anybody
but myself ON the prairie; and Pearl
will sec you and Leon have a place to
stay. Now, guess if you ladies will
excuse me, I'll go put up the horse. I'll
be right back" y;
AS he stood in the doorway, his eyes
turned back to Leon. "Shall l come
too, pap" said the child. Miss Brainerd,
at least, noticed enc culver pass over
the mans face before he answered:
mo, shall come back soon. You stay
with your mother" NJ "A. =
Still, she was looking ut him. He
walked out alone. Then she rose, her
lips set firmly. "Will you excuse me,

CHAPTER III.

Mr.. Rogers opened the door, tall
man who stopped little. lie wore the
black broadcloth of a rural politician,
but it was scrupulously well brushed
His face was rather long, looking long
er for gray chin beard, and bald
forehead, Ills hair like his beard was
gray and beautifully soft. 1t curled
about his face. His blue eyes were
large and mild; indeed the whole ex-
preston of his face was that of
rather melancholy patience.
AS he walked along he dragged his
feet, giving slump to his gate-more
Of indecision than awkwardness. He
greeted Mr.. Arlnil warmly, and
bowed a courtesy that was not SO much
rough as unframed, to Miss Brainerd.
This is my wife, Miss Brainerd," he
said, in the same tone that any husband
might have used.
The minister, in her one year of Of
fec, had seen some strange sides of do
nestle life; but this drama had new

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2l.-The general
