China's Inventions.

So much has been said and written
about the breaking up of the Chinese
empire, and the lethargy and ignor-
ance that have brought about this
misfortune, that it is interesting to
cite the points of the circle described
by mans intelligence, at which the
Chinese mind has had glimpses of a
heaven far beyond its vision.
1t caught glimpse Of the path to
military supremacy when it invented
gunpowder some centuries before it
was discovered by any other country.
1t caught glimpses of the path
which leads to maritime supremacy
when it invented the compass at a
period equally remote. 1t caught a
glimpse Of literary supremacy when
in the tenth century it invented the
printing press. 1t has taught, from
time to time, glimpses of color and
design.
But in the han ds OF the Chinese
the invention of gunpowder resulted
only in the manufacture of the HARM
less little fire-crackers, a coasting
junk was the outcome of the compass,
the art of printing for years was stag
mated with stereotyped editions of Con-
fucius, and the most crude representa-
ton OF the grotesque has been its con-
ceptions of art.

FROGS AND WASPS.,
The Former Eat the Latter and Seem e

The Former Eat the Latter and Seem e
Enjoy Them Very Much.
Some time ago 1 discovered, acct
dentally. that frogs are voracious eat
ers of wasps. have in my garden q
tank for watering, with an island Of
rockworl1, which is favorite haunt Of
the frogs, writes Il. E. Bartlett in the
London Spectator. The wasps just now
are carrying on a raid against my fruit,
and when wish to crafty ut once my
revenge and my frogs l catch a ma
rauder between n post card and an in
verified wine glass, carry him off to the
tank, wet his wings to prevent his fly
ing, and set him on the rockwork be-
fore the frogs.
After moments pause a frog ad-
vances, and in an Instant the wasp has
disappeared, drawn into the frogs
mouth by n single dart of his long
tongue. Occasionally the wasp reap
pears, wholly or partially, having made
it unpleasant for the frog. but he is al
most always swallowed in the end.
Usually convulsive movements may be
noticed III the frogs throat and body,
as though the process of deglutition
were not quite easy; but that they like
the diet is evident from the fact that q
single smallish frog has been known
to take three wasps one after another.
Indeed, it is remarkable what very
small frogs, quite infants, will swallow
q wasp with avidity. One afternoon
q tiny frog swallowed full-grown
wasp, when big relative went for him
quite savagely, like big schoolboy
thrashing small one for presuming
to be helped before him.

To Test Water.

There is simple test for the pres
sence of sewerage in water. Alldrink-
ing water should be tested in town or
country frequently, as there are other
impurities besides sewage which are
quite as deadly, and every cistern OF
water is liable to be a source of blood
poisoning. Mice, rats and other pests
must have water, and many case of
typhoid is set up by such as these fall
ing into the cistern and remaining
there for months in decomposed
state.
To detect this impure condition is
very simple and unfailing. Draw a
tumbler of water from the tap at
night, put Il piece of white sugar into
it, and place it Oh the kitchen mantel
shelf or anywhere that the tempera-
ture will not be under sixty degrees
Fahrenheit.
In the morning the water, if pure,
will be perfectly clear; if contaminat-
cd by sewage Or other impurities, the
water will be milky. This is a simple
and safe test we'll known in chemistry.

MEASURING HER BY MACHINE.
How Model Of the Tailor Made Women Figure
Can Be Taken Now.
Pittsburg Dispatch

Pittfburg Dispatch.
The vogue of the tailor-made and
its derfect fit, to obtain which enor-
nous prices are paid to expert tailors
for cutting and fitting, has induced An
ingenious sartOrial artist OF New York
to devise a measuring machine, which
takes what is nothing less than a
model of a woman's figure. 1t con-
sists, as described, OF numerous spring
adjusted points, arranged in vertical
and horizontal rows and supported on
two movable racks. The woman to
be measured steps between these two
racks, and then, by means of a spring
attachment, each point is allowed to
move forward until it touches the
body. The points thus assume the
shape of the body's contour. After
satisfactory adjustment OF the points
they are locked in position, each row
with single movement, when the
racks are wheeled apart on their tracks
and the model" steps out.
After the readjustment of the racks
into their original positions sheets of
paper, with one straight edge, which
is placed against the square face of the
supporting frame, are placed one
across each row and the ends of the
points marked on it in pencil. This

that was to go into Africa, buy two

to that existing in the person of st.

ended. They set forth. The doctor
carried one thousand pounds in his in
side pocket, and the chief probably lay
awake four nights thinking about tho
matter.
At any rate, on the fifth night he
sneakcd into the doctors tent and de-
livered a little address over the muz-
zles of two pistols. When he had con-
cluded the doctor passed over his
ducats and the chief passed over the

back without 4 retinue and with q deal

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Sharpen all kinds OF fish sauce with
lemon Juice.
Oniou, peeled under water do not
disturb the eyes.
Poultry should never be cooked uE-
Il. twelve or fourteen hours after kill
ing.
The broader the breast of Il turkey,
and tie shorter its neck tIc better.
The skin must hc white and uniform.
Ii anything is spilled or boils over
on to the stove and makes bad
smoke or odor, sprinkle a little salt
upon it at once.
\ few drops of kerosene oil thrown
into an iron sink will keep it free
from rust and generally cleaner than
anything else that may be done.
Make n filter for your kitchen
faucet OF cotton and wool, and you
will never use untitered water in
cooking or for drinking again.
Never trim lampwick with scis-
sors. 1t is almost impossible to cut it
clean aud straight. Just rub the
burned part of with an old cloth.
If you use wooden pail about
your household and it begins to shrink
and leak, fill it with water and then
stand it in a tub filled with water.
This will swell the wood so it will leak
no more.
The air i'll a room may be greatly
purified by setting apail OF water in it
for a few hours. 1t will absorb all the
poisonous gases, and the air will be
pure and the water utterly bad. The
colder the water is, the more perfectly
it will absorb impurities.
Persons of weak digestion are re-
reminded that whipped cream can be
used when plain cream would be too
rich. The porous froth produced by
whipping cream makes it much easier
to digest.
We no longer believe in growing

little sufferer from a chronic disease

of damp on the wall beside her bed.
She played they were real and alive;
she gave them names and imaginary
qualities.
Another true story showed how far
the little candle of a wise and loving
word may throw its beams. A teacher
at a Sunday school for London's poor

pupils some idea of the real meaning

bear healthy children. The prospective
mother should use every precaution to
preserve and foster her health. Not
alone for the sake of the little one to
come but for her own sake. A perfectly
healthy woman is in no danger and in
very little pain at her time of trial
There must be due preparation for
this time. Nature makes the prepare
tory period three-fourths of a year and
women who take the hint from nature
and use the time properly need have no
fears of the outcome. DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription is medicine designed
to cure all distinctly feminine ailments

it renders childbirth easy, safe and COM
paratively painless.
1t is the invention of DIR. r. ". Pierce,
of Buffalo, n. ", a regularly graduated
physician and skilled specialist in the
cure of all diseases of woman.
Mrs. Orrin Stiles, of Downing Dunn Co., Wis,
writes: II cannot praise your Favorite Pre-
scfiption' enough, for have not been as we'll for
i've years as now am. In July last had a baby
boy, weight II lbs. was only sick short time,

Sick women can consult DIR. Pierce by
letter free of charge. Every letter is held
strictly private and sacredly confidential.
Designing men work on women's
feelings, by advising women to write
to a woman who understands woman's
needs" 1t is useless to seek advice about
disease of any woman who is not ply
stefan. So far as known no qualified
woman physician is connected with any
proprietary medicine establishment.
