Sterilization of Water supply.

The Rivista d'Igiene of Turin has
just indicated a way of sterilizing
drinking water by means Of peroxide
of chlorine. The method is thorough
speedy and economical, and is termed
the Berge process. Peroxide of chlor-
inc is so powerful bactericide that
three grammes will sterilize complete
ly one cubic meter Of water at cost
Of less than half centime. The
method has already obtained a unani-
nous vote in it's favor from the con-
sultative committee of public hygiene
in France, and it has yielded quite
satisfactory results at Ostend and Mid
delkerke. One objection is that it is
only efficacious in the case of drinking
water not very impure; but if Chicago
water comes under the category there
is now a sterilizing agent which prom
ises pure and harmless drinking
water.

Singular TiInepieces.

In the town of Schramberg, in the
Black Forest district of Wurtemberg,
Germany, where one Of the chief in
dustries is that Of clockmaking, there
has recently been established re-
markable museum OF timepieces.
Among the curiosties are many OF
great historical value. There is an
alarm clock constructed in the year
1850 for the use Of travellers. In form
it resembles lantern, and the in
terror is designed to hold lighted
candle. The candle is slowly pushed
upward by spring, which also con-
trolls the mechanism of the clock. A
little pair of shears clips the wick OF
the candle automatically every minute
to regulate its light. The lantern is
enclosed with movable slides, so that
the sleeper is not at first disturbed by
the presence of light. The alarm is
set by inserting a peg in the second
dial-plate. When the required hour
arrives, the alarm is sounded, and at
the same moment the movable sides
fall flooding the room with light.

the nuts for them, although tho cquir-
rels vii. crack them themselves. But
they nave got so used to nuts with
comparatively soft shell that they will
not crack an ordinary hickory nut,
but carry it off and hide it. Such nuts
were found hidden in the toe Of boot
belonging to a member of the family
behind a pillow on the lounge, and the
squirrels will go over to adjoining lots
to hide them. Some families in this
city who feed squirrels have got them
to eat bread and corn, but the Misses
Clary's squirrels have lived so high
that nothing but nuts will do for them.

JupiteF's Swift Moon.

A new computation Of the period OF
the hfth satellite Of Jupiter, discov-
cred by Mr.. Barnard in 1892, shows the
extreme accuracy Of astronomical cal
culations when they are based upon a
long series of continuous observations.
This computation deals very confident
ly with ttousandths of second, the
period OF the little moon being set
down at II hours, 81 minutes, 20 Sec
ond and 6471,000 Of second. The
satellite whose time of revolution is
thus accurately determined moves
with great speed. It's distance from
Jupiters center is about 1880 miles,
and It's path is practically a circle, so
that the distance which it travels dur
ing a revolution is. in round numbers,
353,250 miles. AS 1t accomplishes this
distance in less than twelve hours, it's
velocity is almost 500 miles in a min
ute. and this, singularly enough, is
about the same as the average velocity
of Jupiter in his revolution around the
sun.

Some Queer Names.

The most suggestive and inviting
name | saw was that of druggist in
North Dakota. 1t was U. R. Welcome,
his first name being Urias. Across the
street was another man with funny
name. He bore the euphoniOus cog
nomen, John Stonepounder. In the
next town l got so interested in queer
names that | soon heard OF speedy
individual called Sarah Deerhoof. In
that same town there is a man named
Henry Bookstruck. Ever after that
was on the outlook. On the train
met David Newsalt and Millie New
love- The man with the most warlike
name ran against was Abraham Salt
peter Two names which gave entirely
different ideas of solidity and strength
are Bernard Strawbridge and John
Stonehouse. In one town l found a
man who had a very poetic name. 1t
was Seabright SunbloOm. But the last
name I struck finished me 1t seemed
like a direct command to cease my sac
rilegious monkeying with peoples
names. 1t was A. Quickfinish and
what do you suppose his partners
name was? 1t was w. X. Goforth.-

Prof. Campbell, before the Highland
(Scotland) Agricultural Society, said:
/. First-class Cheddar cheese can
be made by using pure cultures OF a
Tactic organism. 2. This organism
abounds in all samples of sour milk
and sour whey. 3. The system rec
commended for the preparation of
homemade starter is one which exerts
purifying influence upon the bacte-
rial content of the starter, and results
in the elimination of bacteria which
are unnecessary II not harmful to the
production of first-class material.
4. The use of whey starter is at
tended with results equal in every way
to those obtained from milk starter.
OF these results by far the most i'm
portant is that which shows that a
homemade starter, if carefully pre-
pared. comes after a few days to be
practically pure culture of the bac-
terra desired.
Preparation of a Home Made Start
er.-In order to prepare a homemade
starter the dairyman has to secure two
enameled pals provided with covers.
In the one he pours fresh skinned
milk, and then sets it in fairly warm
place, so that in about twenty-four
hours the milk will be both sour and
thick. When this has occurred he
skins of the surface. breaks up the
center of the mass and takes out half
q pint. This ne adds to skimmilk
which has previously been scalded
from 166 to 100 deg. F. and subse-
qusnNy cooled to about 65 or 70 degs.

Some Postal Oddities.

Mr. b. Fletcher Robinson relates in
Cassels his exploration of the night
work of the general postofIice under
the heading, The Next Days Let
ters." 1t is racily written as we'll as
Instructive sketch. The acting head
of the sOrters tells the writer some of
the difficulties the members of his staff
have to conquer. He said: "Of course,
they find it trying life when they
first begin. Getting up between and
in the morning is neither one thing
nor the other, neither night work nor
day work. The excuses generally run
on the same lines. They say that their
alarm clock did not go off, or else that
they had got so used to it that it did
not wake them-as | know myself.
remember one very amusing letter
which we received A man had been
reprimanded for continued unpunctual-
ity, and he wrote as follows: 1T is
owing to the falling of my clock and
my getting back into bed again, habit
l found which, by the way, is an in
convenient fact, had grown on me to
such an extent that l knew | should
have to take some serious steps to
prevent it. In consequence | married
about two months ago, and have not
been late since" Oddities of address
naturally claim attention. Last year
as many as twentyeight thousand let
ters We're posted without any address
at all A record is kept of the most
remarkable "feats of Interpretation"
such as discovering under the dis
guise of Obanvidok, Bucon Palus, Ship
in Hungar, Selorhom-Te Tebiekaldfor,
and Jerip-intine the proper addresses
at Holbcrn Viaduct, Buckingham Pal
ace, Chipping Ungar, Sailors Home
to be called for and JarroW-upon-
Tyne. Il sometimes think" contin-
ued the official medtatively, that the
public imagines we could get letter
to the moon if necessary Just after
the Paris had run on the Manacles we
received letter despatched by some
district council in the north, which
had for its address: The steward, on
board the steamship Paris, on the Man
acles rocks or elsewhere A German
circular that arrived the other day
bore more sensible inscription. The
sender had at least recognized the fact
that there was limit to our powers,
for he had transcribed upon it, If the
receiver be dead, please do not send
this on to him."

Cata mount.

Philadelphia Press: People who
imagine that animals haven't got feel
ings don't know what they are talking
about" said the Yellowstone park
guide, as he sat cleaning his rifle. Il
was cutting train around one of the
sproutin' springs one day, and getting
warmed up, l threw my coat over the
end of log. BY and by l went off to
hunt for a drink of water, and it was
perhaps half an. hour before l returned
to my work When l came up, it was
to see a whaEn'. big mountain lion
creepin' along to spring on the coat
1t was over the log in way to make 1t
look like a man was STOPPING down,
and the lion was nicely deceived. He
skulked up to within eighteen feet of
the log, crouched fiat for a moment
and laid back his ears, and then he
made two jumps of it. Creased light
min wasn't in it with that critter.
1t was IKE big ball of fur shot from
a cannon, and as he flew he uttered
a screech which brought my hair on
end. If that coat had been man he
would not have had time to say gum.
The lion lit down on it with claws and
teeth ready for business, and in five
seconds the garment was cut into car
pet rags Then he realized the cheat,
and you never saw human being look
SO foolish. His tail went down to the
EARTH the fire died out of his eyes,
and he'd have given $40 for some one
to kick him up hill. His chagrin was
so plain that laughed right out, and
that broke his heart. He looked at
me and whimpered like a puppy, and
when l asked if his mother knew he
was out he fetched sort OF sob in his
throa- and sneaked off like dog
caught KILN sheep. II l could have
run fast enough to have caught him
by the tail he wouldn't have even
looked back. He knew he had made a
fool of himself, and he wanted to go
off and hide and have long think"
