Artificial Daylight.

Telsa has succeeded in making artific-
ial daylight. In his laboratory he
shows numerous balls OF glass OF diff
terent sizes which look like miniature
suns The balls or empty. there are no
wires in them or outside OF them. They
do not burn the fingers. The light does
not hurt the eyes as sunlight and Or
binary electric light do. A number OF
leading Nav York and Chicago pho
tographers will have this artificial
daylight supplied to their studios
1elsa says: THE reason have chos-
en- to introduce the new daylight to
the photographers first is that / be-
lieve them to be the seyerest critics in
me matter OF light II 1t succeeds
with them, the new light will succeed
everywhere. New York World.

How the Brain Works.

How does thought transform itself
into action, or. in other words, what is
the process that takes place in the
gray matter or thinking portion Of the
brain, by which 1t operates upon the
nerves? Senior Raman y Cajal, the cell
ebrated Spanish anatomist, has work
ed out theory which appears to an
swer this question. According to him
each cell OF the gray matter is an in
dependent organ, being connected
with the other cells by nelghborhood
only so long as 1t is in a state OF re-
pose But he imagines that when 1t is
stirred up by any impression from the
outside world 1t goes through series
of movements called by him ami
bo.dN movements, which causes 1t to
come into contact with its neighbors,
and they then work together for a
common end so long as the original
impulse lasts. Thus, II sudden idea
takes place in your brain it is because
one OF the. independent cells or, as he
calls them, "neurones," has awoke to
activity and has shot out sudden ex-
pansion like the movements which
take place in protoplasm, thereby
stirring up the neighboring cells into
activity; when, on the contrary, after
a .ong intellectual effort your brain
seems to refuse the drafts you are
mating upon it, 1t is because the par
ticular neurone has become tired and
has returned to its normal state of in
activity, as snail draws in its horns.

remain here for a week or more.
There were several applications
made yesterday, but the applicants
were OF the undesirable class, and
were promptly turned down" by the
recruiting officer. Young men of So

ness are the desideratum, not toughs
or drunkards. Those OF the latter ilk

Prince Of WaIes's INSURANCE.

A big insurance man told me recent
ly In New York that the Prince Of
Wales was the heaviest risk OF any
patron OF the insurance business, and
that hds death would cost England
German, French and American comp
anies not less than S10,0000OO
mo other person carries 20 per cent
Of that Insurance." he said, but COM
paretively little of it is for the benefit
OF his family; perhaps not more than
S1.O0O.O00. Some years ago large poll
cIes we're taken out by his creditors
as security for money loaned. II he
should pay his debts they would of
course revert to him and might be car
rsed for the benefit OF his family. but
hls premiums, like the premium OF all
the royal families OF Europe, are very
high--much higher than those paid by
private individuals for the same
amount ot insurance.
1T Is curious fact" continued my
Insurance friend, who spends a good
deal OF his time in England, that 32,-
900, 900 or S3.000.000 insurance, perhaps
more than that. has been placed on the
Eta Of the Prince OF Wales as a specu-
latton by persona who do not know
him and have never had any relations
whatever With him. This would not
be possible under the insurance laws Of
the United States but il is allowed by
some Of the English companies. Over
there any man can secure policy on
the life OF neighbor, provided he can
pArsuade the netehbor to submit to a
InsdtcAl examination or find comp
any which has recently had him exam
ined. Thus when the Prince Of Wales
undergoes an examination for
insurance spectators apply to the
same company for policies on
his Me, OF get certified copies of
the EepoCt OF the medical examiner
and use them with other companies.
II ls pure speculation. They paid a
htSh premium. margin, SO to speak,
OF, 10 pat II 10 another way, they
book a wager with the insurance COM
paniee that the Prince will die before
the total OF their premiums exceeds
the amount OF the policy. Therefore
many person would be financially
benefited IL Albert Edward should
drop on suddenly one Of these fine
days. The prince is perfectly aware OF
this fact. He knows very we'll what
advantages have been taken Of his sit
uatiOA, bat DO not suppose 1t makes
Rny difference with his habits, w.

Piled It ON the Princess.

In China it is etiquette to regard one
as older than he or she really is. When
the Prince and Princess Henry Of
Prussia visited Shanghai, they met a
notable mandarin, one Of whose first
questions to the prince-this being an
inyariable matter of Chinese politeness
was:
"How old gre you?"
"a little more than &C." answered the
prince, smiling.
'Indeedv' said the mandarin. "Your
highness appears 50.''
The mandarin then turned to the in
terpreter-Herr Voight, a German
and inquired the princess age. She
answered, "Thirty-two.' The inter-
prefer interpreted, and the mandarin
made 4 remark in Chinese evidently in
tended to be complimentary. The in
terpreter blushed uneasily and hesitat-
ed to translate the remark. The prince
saw the difficulty and laughingly COM
manded:
"Out with it, yoight!'
''He says" the Interpreter then trans
lated to the princess, that your high
ness looks like coz
He had meant it we'll, and Of course
the princess had sense enough not to

A LiyelY Barrel.

An actor tells of tragic experience
he had while playing in little town in
southern Texas. In one Of the scenes
Of the play, in which he acts the vii
lain, he hides himself in a barrel, that
he may listen to a conversation be-
tween the hero and heroine, whose fu-
ture we'll being he is trying to destroy.
In the town hall there was little if any
property" material. A barrel would
do to conceal himself in, so q "hired
hand" was sent out to find one. He
succeeded.
The time came for the actor to do his
part. He slipped in the barrel with
ease. The man and the woman ap-
peared, and while they were in the
midst Of an animated conversation
there came howl from the barrel that
fairly shook the rafters. This was fol-
lowed by the eavesdropper crawling
out with his hands to his face, and he
in turn was followed by a swarm Of
wasps. The wasps got among the
stage people and those in the audience,
which created SO much confusion that
the show was broken up.-Galveston

Oriental Judgment on Mixed Babies

Oriental Judgment on Mixed Babies.
The Greek ecclesiastical authorities
at Aleppo have been called upon to de
eide case which strongly recalls Solo
mons famous judgment. By a strange
coincidence woman and her daughter
both gave birth to female child at the
same time. But the babies got mixed,
and, as one Of them was ugly and the
other pretty and healthy, both mothers
claimed the latter. The elder woman
maintained that, as all her other chill
dren were handsome, the ugly child
could not be hers, while her daughter
claimed that. being young, handsome
and strong, she could not be the moth
er Of weak and ugly babe.
The religious chief Of the town set
tied the affair in a summary way. He
adjudged the beautiful child to the
daughter on the ground that, it being
her first, the occasion was not to be
made one Of humiliation and disap-
pointnent. while the elder mother
could afford to forego her claim since
she had already had several handsome

A Wonder Flower.

The Canadian Manufacturer reports
the remarkable phenomenon Of the dis
coyery of a flower il hcased in a hole in
an old iron casting, the flower being in
perfect state Of preservation. A work
man engaged in breaking up old iron
at foundry in Ontario came across an
old wheel that had done service on a
stationary engine for many years. On
breaking it he discovered in crevice a
flower blossom in perfect condition, its
color being as fresh as the day it found
it's way into it's mysterious hiding
place It had evidently fallen into the
casting when it was being poured, and
in some manner escaped injury from
the molten metal. AS the cavity was
perfectly alright it naturally retained
it's freshness until exposed to view.

Danger In Roensgen, Rays.

A warning has been voiced by one Of
the leading English medical journals in
regard to the too frequent use of the
Roentgen ray apparatus.
It is interesting, no doubt, to obtain
series Of photographs of ones own
skeleton, but if this is to be at the ex-
pense Of such trifes as ones hair and
ones finger nails it seems hardly worth
the cost. One electrical engineer, who
has often demonstrated the beauty of
his own finger bones by placing one Of
his hands within the radius Of the
searching rays, lost all the nails from
the fingers of that hand. while Mr. Sid
ney Rowland, who is one Of the leading
experimenters in this direction, men,
taons several cases of similar character
IN the structural changes that occur in
the hair and SO forth Of those who
have been frequently shadowgraphed
by this method. Thus, in the case of
patients whose heads have been subject
ed to the influence of the rays, the hair
has either turned white Or has fallen
out entirely. It is suggested that these
results are due to the electrical potency
f what are called tine ultra violet rays
.m the spectrum, though their precise
action is at present by no means thor
oughly understood.
One curious suggestion has already
been made. It is we'll known supersti-
tion, and one which has existed for gen.
erataons, that people who sleep IN the
direct rays of the moon have their rea-
son more or less seriously affected.
Now, it is said that these ultra violet
rays exist in the moonlight, and hence
"a popular superstition may be founded
upon scientific fact. = Philadelphia
