SALT WATER,

New Orleans Times : Democrat: II
was much interested today said a we'll
known local chemist, ''in reading a de-
scription of the experiment of sinking a
bottle of champagne in the deep sea and
hauling it up securely corked but full
OF salt water instead Of wine. / have
seen the thing done myself, n can
vouch for the statement that the trans
formation does occur, but exactly how
the champagne gets out and the water
gets IN has been the subject of a good
deal of dispute. What happens evident
~ is this: The pressure of sea water
30 feet in descent. When the bottle is
down 5000 feet the pressure is a hundred
a~tmospheres, or about 1,500 pounds to
the square inch. The cork, being very
elastic, is queezed together by that ire
mendou force, oil the air it contains is
pressed out, and it becomes consider
ably smaller in diameter thaa the neck
of the. bottle. So, instead Of fitting
snugiy, there is a certain space all
around, down which a film of water
forces it's way, and being of greater spe-
cifc gravity than the wine, goes at once
to the bottom. Then it is possible that
a screw or vortex movement sets ur in
side the bottle, and the wine finds its
way out between the film of water and
the cork. Imagine a tube within a tube
the outside one representing the de-
scending water n the inside one the
ascending wine, and you have caught the
idea. 1 don't think the cork goes very
far down h neck. You see, it is rest
ing continually on a cushion of fluid
and when the bottle rises it gradually
expands until it fits tightly again in its
old place. This double-film theory is the
only way l know of in which the empty
ing and refilling can be satisfactorily
and scientifically accounted for. If the
bottle is reversed and sent down head
first, nothing of the kind will happen
The stopper win simply be pushed ir
and the bottle will come up full of nor
or less salty champagne, with the cork

If you are in your own business where
every energy is strained to do well for
yourself, then cast thoughts of economy
to the winds, purchase a dozen sets of
washable summer suits and wear them
all the time. That is practically the ad-
vice of New York's most famous physi-
clan who declares that men injure them
selves and destroy their gray matter
every summer by over-heating their bod
les with unsuitable dress.
New York in summer runs parallel
with Bombay in climate; in the former
they wear broadcloth and felt; in the lat
ter nothing but linen.
Chicago is a little cooler, in degrees,
than New York but sweltering enough
sometimes; and for the South there
! should b. no argument. Every man
| should wear the thinnest he can find and
/ rejoice that he has nothing warmer.
Shirts are growing fantastic. A man
| who buys a shirt is asked if he will have
| the stripes running up and down or hori-
zontal. He is questioned upon his tastes
regarding a blouse front; if he wants a
soft bosom or a stiff one; whether he will
take a shirt in two matrials or in one.
This means that the race of men have a
wide latitude of choice and that tn day t

The process of manufacture OF most of

when they discontinue wheeling.
Riding uphill is always a dangerous

rate and this overaction, when continued
for any length of time, must eventually
cause an enlargement or dilation of the

and loss of flesh and strength.

n well under way-say from an hour and

The eye is also apt to be affected as the
result of indiscreet riding. There are

| The trouble in each case was attributed
to "scorching" in hot weather.

apparent that a very important percent

Anothe r danger to cyclists-particu-
larry those who go for long rides in the
country-is sunstroke. It is always best
to ride before noon n after 4 o'clock
in the afternoon. The danger of sun
stroke is always. much less during these
hours.
When seized with a feeling Of exhaus-
ton, fatigue, headache and faintness

CYCLE IN
HOT WEATHER
Or If You Do, Be Sure That You Take
the Best of Care of Yourself
and Your Beast.

With the advent of extremely hot
weather, it behooves the cyclist to have
a care and avoid the numerous 1ndis-
cretions to which so many are addicted.
About the first thing noticed after rid
ing for some time is an intense thirst.
The habit of stopping by the wayside and
i%ndulging in a drink of iced water, ice
cold beer, lemonade or any one OF the
nupmerous other beverages kept in such
places is one of the bad habits common
with wheelmen. The cyclist should sit
down and get thoroughly cooled off be-
fore drinking anything that is cold.
Many cyclists avoid an intense thirst by
chewing gum. This habit may be in
dulged in win perfect safey, provided
the pure and old-fashioned spruce gum is
used. 1t is an open question as to which
will prove the more Injurious to the
stomach-the cold drinks or the saliva

let her not do SO by gaslight as gasoline
is a ~treacherous article to handle When
the hat has been dried and aired, until
it is fresh and spotless, let her expend
a dollar upon the gayest silk scarf in the
haberdasher's window and not sickle
over a quarter or so in price. 1t is the
best article which costs the most, gen
orally.
Let her take the scarf and, if it is too
'slinky," let her line it with crinoline,
and with this hearty substance let her
twist the hat until it is trimmed. A
knot at one side concludes the trimming.
{ IT the man be disinclined to gay trim

year in a shirt of transparent China silk

A SUMMER MAN
IN GAY ATTIRE
Brilliant Plaids and Crepe Ties Are
Offered Him as Well as Band Of
Silk and Tulle for His Hat.

The summer man is buying his trous-
seau. He will wed the sea goddess and
for this he needs a bathing suit. He will
WOO the mountain nymph and, for the
sweet task, he requires Knockers n a
sweater. He will stroll along the sands
and walk the green fields and for both
these pastimes he needs clothes.
But the man who stays at home and
reads his ledger must also dress. If the
others need cooling garments he needs
still cooler ones. If the others delight in
pretty things, nne of varied hues,
short coats and fancy vests, he delights
in them lone the less because he must
wear them to work instead of sporting
them by the sea.
There lives no man this season with
soul too dead to appreciate the new hats
They are making derbies of straw, which,
however, you are compelled to order,
made in advance for you, and they are
also making high hats of straw, looking
rather odd, you may be sure, but cool and
summary.
Until the advent of the Spanish war,
and the first summer in the tropics of
Cuba and the Philippines, there was no
such thing as a helmet, except upon an
explorer or a man of eccentricities. The
wearer of a straw helmet felt that he
must be talented indeed before he dared
intrude such an article upon the public
gaze. Now they are wearing these cool
tropical hats every day in New York and
many men wear tulle around them.
Net, tulle, figured lawns and silk are
the favorite trimming for the summer
hat. Mems SAILORS hav their twist OF
colored tulle; and mems soft Alpines are
decorated with a winding Of gay silk,
The prejudice against feminine trim
mings is wearing off and you see them
all the time. There are silk scarfs with
their traceries of scarlet and there are
lawn scarfs with their bands of bright
silk.

OUR POLICY IN CHINA.

From the speech of Senator Davis
before the Hamilton club in Chicago:
1.-The Democratic party was silent re-
speeding our relations with China, be-
cause to declare opinions upon that
subject which the American people
would receive with contempt and spurn
with disgust would cause the broom
stick ghost of Imperialism and milttar-
ism to vanish In an instant. So to
speak would annihilate those para
mount issues because 1t would admit
that even the blind, when told, can per-
ceive, even IL they cannot see 1t, that
the status, the occupation, and the SOW
ereignty of the United States in the
Philippines are at this moment and in
this great crisis OF civilization COM
manding and absolutely indispensable.
They vicdicate the wisdom Of holding
those possessions, unless the United
States is to recede to the shores of the
American continent, become herself a
little China, cancel herself as factor
In the great civilizing and commercial
change in the Asiatic Orient. an event
fully as important as the discovery OF
America by Columbus.
There are few events in our diplo-
matte and military history more hon
orable than the consummate skill. the
wise conservatism, and the unfiinching
courage by which the administration OF
President Mckinley relieved our lega-
ton and at the same time maintained
proper relations with the Chinese en-
pire.
1.-THE policy of the United States as
to China should, in my opinion, be
this: 1t must rescue it's citizens. 1t
must exact indemnity for all injuries
to their person or property. 1t will In
sist that China shall observe all treaty
stipulations, and that, under any and
all conditions of sovereignty, cession
or foreign ascendancy, the open door
shall remain open. We shall use no
military force for conquest, and have
no coccert with any European power,
except to rescue our citizens and
