RoUNDLAP BALNs IN ENGLAND.
Hon. William Q. Lovering's Demonstra
ton of Three Cotton Bales Unroiling
Automatically.

Boston Transcript.
Hon. William G. lowering has
returned from Europe where he
has been looking after the inter
ests of the American Cotton
Company. He found the spin
ners Of England and the Contin-
ent using the R,undlap Bale
with the greatest satisfaction.
They are ksonly alive to all the
money saving advantages of the
new system. The ease with
which the ba'e is ha died IN
transit and at the mill daIie hts
them. The low cost Of freight
and Insurance.. the immunity
from fire in the mill and the fact
that there are no hoops, wires
or metal of any kind used in
baling are features that espec-
tally appeal to the thrifty Eurc-
pean spinners.
Mr.. Lowering had the oppor-
tunity to address a meeting of
prominent cotton manufacturers
of Lancashire on the merits of
the Roundlap Bale, and by the
courtesy of Messrs. Howard &
Bullough, of Accrington,- they
were invited to witness demon
stration of the running CT three
bales of cotton directly on the
apron of a scrutcher. Nothing
could have been more perfect or
absolutely satisfactory than the
working of the cotton in this
way. The scrutcher was started
with three bales upon the apron
and ran off at once without
hitch or interruption. The noise
made by the beaters was a steady
deep and healthful hum, showing
that the machine was doing it's
work without laboring in the
least. The lap that was clean
and even running, weighing six
teen ounces to the yard.
The spinners took the great
est interest 10 the demonstration
and with one accord expressed
their complete satisfaction with
the operation. They said that
they saw in the new system
great revolution in cotton manu-
featuring. They are all anxious
10 buy the new bale, and are
ready to give orders at once.
They were surprised and graf
flied to see that the scutcher was
an ordinary scutcher, such as
they were using in all their mills
They had been led to think that
it re qnired special machinery for
the purpose whereas it only re-
qulred a little heavier apron to
carry the bales or laps, weigh
ing two hundred and sixty
pounds each.

crowning event of his wonderful
career, and which is embodied in a
new article of commerce, known as
Red Cross Starch (Red Cross trade
mark.) He is planning to distribute
millions of packages of this starch to
the housewives of America, at a merely
nominal price to the consumer, in order
to make its merits known without de-
lay. Thus, for but 5 cents two large
1Oc packages Of Red Cross Starch may
be had, together with two magnificent

views and one Twentieth Century Girl

every lady will certainly want to take
advantage.

HAS PECULIAR WAYS.
The American Bittern, BETTER Known
as the stake Driver, Is n Com
icnlly Dignified Bird.

Nearly everybody who has been be-
yond the limits of stone walks and
brick walls has seen flying over the
fields at some time or another the bird
known as the American bittern, locally
called in places the swamp pump and
stake driver, on account of its call. How
many, L wonder, who are familiar with
this marsh resident when in full flight
have ever seen it at rest? Not many,
venture to say. The bird will stand on
the ground in it's damp retreat without
as much cover as has the ostrich when
it pokes it's head in the sand and inn
agines itself unseen, and one may pass
within ten yards of the silent figure and
even see it and yet never guess of a
birds presence. Scientists have writ
ten reams about the protective color
ing of the whip-poor-will, which enables
it to become fairly part of some lichen-
covered limb. The white of the ptar-
migan on the snowy heights and the
brown of the partridge among the dead
leaves of the forest have been COM
mented upon time and time again as in
stances of what nature does to make her
bird children to become part of their
surroundings, that they may escape the
eye of the destroyer. The way in which
the stake driver of the swampy wood
land stretches keeps his presence there
a secret when prowler is about seems

THE AMERICAN BITTERN.

to have escaped the notice of many nat
uralists. In May last, with a compan-
ion, L was walking along a road at the
edge of swamp not many miles north
of Chicago. A bittern rose from point
far to our left and tapped its way lazily
over the marsh to damp place in pas
ture covered with stumps, with few
standing trees scattered here and there.
Through powerful glasses we watched
the birds progress and marked down
the spot where he had pitched. We
made directly for the place and then
began a search for the bird with our
glasses. Every spot of ground within
so yards was examined carefully, but
not feather could we see. Finally my
companion, who had been looking
steadily through his glass at one spot
for what seemed fully five minutes, said,
suddenly: There he is. Look at the
fifth stump" At the fifth stump 1
looked. 1t was no stump at all, but
Master Bittern himself posed and max
ing an almost perfect representation of
one of the small blasted tree relics by
which he was surrounded. He was only
Is yards away. His body was perpen'
dicular his neck and head We're drawn
well down into his shoulders and his
beak was pointed straight upward,
forming a prolongation of the line of
his back. I'VE will test his patience"
was our decision, and we sat down
quietly, noted the time and stared at
that devoted bird for exactly one hour.
During all that time he moved not at
all. No neighboring stump was moro
firmly fixed than he. 1t seemed as
though he had control of his feathers
as well, for the passing breezes that
stirred the lush swamp grass beyond
failed to ruffie any part of his brown
plumage. Finally, half ashamed Of
keeping the bird longer under such a
strain, we walked toward him. Not till
we were within few feet did he move.
Then he took four comically dignified
steps away from us, and, rising, flew
far down the little stream which in
spring makes its way through the heart
of the ampland.-Edward b. Clark,
in Chicago Record.

Between Six and seven.

In Milwaukee case was being tried,
and the particular question at issue
was the number of persons present
when certain event occurred. An
honest but simple-minded German was
in the witness box, and was evidently
in much trepidation. The lawyer on
the other side saw his opportunity.
How many did you say there were
present?" he shouted, bringing his fist
down upon the table tiercely. "Vell,"
meelly answered the witness, "of
course l could not chust say, but l
dinks der vas between six and seven"
Tell the jury what you mean by that!"
roared the lawyer. How could there
be between six and seven?" ''Vell,"
said the witness, slowly, maybe vas
wrong. Dere vas more as six, but dere
vas not so much as seven. One vas

FISH WITH LUNGS.
They Form the Connecting Link in
the Evolution of Fishes to the
Next Higher Order.

In ordinary fish gills take the place
of lungs, and are adapted to breathing
in water, but two species of fishes have
been lately discovered in Africa and
Australia which are possessed of lungs.
They form the connecting link in the
evolution from fishes to the next order
of creatures. The reason that these fish
are provided with lungs is that they are
found in streams which dry up entirely
in the hot summer season, leaving the
fish in the empty beds of the streams.
This period of drought often lasts for
six months of the year, and during all
this period the fish lie quiescent in a
kind of sack formed out of the clay of
the river bed. The fish are asleep in
their queer earthen houses all this time,
but they breathe and are kept alive
through their lungs.
y specimen of the African lung fish"
(Protopterus) has been brought to the
