Worlds Longest Stairway.

The Philadelphia city hall contains
the highest continuous stairway in the
world, and tourists who have boasted
Of their muscular ability in climbing
the stoLs steps Of the Bunker Hill
monument at Charlestown, the Wash
ington monument or the monument to
General Brock near Queenstown, On
taelo, will tell their friends Of their
feat Of ascending the 5o8 steps which
lead from the seventh floor Of the city
hall to the landing about the feet OF
William PENIS statue. It extends
from the seventh to the sixteenth door
and contains 59S steps Of iron, arrang-
ed about a square central shaft, in
which runs an electric elevator. TO
reach the tower stairway the climber
may mount 245 granite stairs in the
stairways ct the nec4heEn end OF the
building, thus making total climb OF
TAB steps.
fcwer climbing is one Of the Gads e
Tourists. Hitherto the BunkeE EST

stone steps, and the Washiaston uoau-
nent, which has few more, have rep
sessnted the acme Of opportunity for
tests Of physical endurance in tnis

THE NEW TENANT.

Now, when he left my life-I drew
Close shut the easements Of my heart
And locked the door, and in each part
Strange darkness r.igned, forlorn and new.
There pierced no happy sunshine through
The barrier Of fastened doors;
The dust lay thick upon the floors
Where rosemary was straWn and rus.
But on certain day came one
Who knocked and would not be denied
And threw the rusted easements wide
And entered with the wind and SUI.
The dingy webs that grief had spun,
The dust that sad neglect had laid,
The faded hangipgs, rent and frayed,
Had vanished ere his work was done.
Oh, he hath swept my heart for me
Clean Of old sorrowing and doubt,
And he hath set It all about
With peace and happy certainty!
Oh, home be glad for such as be
And very sweet nor let him find
That ghost one tenant left behind,
That silent, sad eyed memory!
-Theodosia Garrison in Harper's Barr.

The Wheel Problem.

Which, at any given moment. is NOV
ing forward faster-the top Of coach
wheel or the bottom?
The answer to this question seems
simple enough, but probably nine per-
sons out Of ten, asked at rapdem,
would give the wrong reply. It would
appear at first sight that the top and
bottom must be moving at the same
rate-that is, the speed Of the carriage.
But by little thought 1t Will be dis
covered that the bottom Of the wheel
is in fact, by the direction OF it's mo
ton around its axis, moving backward,
in an opposite direction to that which
the carriage is advancing and is con-
sequently stationary in space, while
the point on top Of the wheel Is NOV
ing forward with the double velocity
Of its own motion around the axis and
the speed at which the carriage moves.

JAPAN IN WINTER.
Colder IN Houses Of the Rich Man
Than In Open Sunshine.

Colder IN Houses of the Rich Man
Than In Open Sunshine.
IT suppose that the American people
and the Russians are the only western
races that really keep warm in winter.
Still those who dwell in other countries
admit that they have the same ideal by
their inefficient effort to attain to it,"
writes Anna n. Benjamin in Ainslee's.
'The Japanese winter is most trying on
account Of its continual dampness, but
the japanese are content to remain
cold. They make almost no effort to
overcome it. The old 'bushido' (chival-
rous) idea of the 'samurai' (knights)
was that it was effeminate to feel cold,
and such is their severe training that
they do not really feel 1t as we do. The
wearing Of some extra 'kimonos' and
the use Of 'hibachi,' or brazier, in
which are q few tiny sticks Of lighted
charcoal, are the only concessions to
winter weather. With the 'hibachi'
they never pretend to heat more than
their finger tips, which they hold over
the Goals. It is used when the house Is
entirely open.
''The houses, as every one knows, are
built Of thin, light wood, and the slid
ing panels which serve for doors and
windows have paper panes. They are
as apt to be open as closed during the
day. When I took my first jirrikisha
ride through the streets Of Nagasaki, I
forgot my own suferings in my SYM
pathy for this unhappy nation, which
as surely as the cold came endured such
misery from it. The coolies wear thin
blue cotton clothes and are always pad
ding through the mud. The storekeep-
ers sit out In their open booths, and the
women go bareheaded about the streets.
In the houses Of the rich the still cold
behind the closed panels is often more
intense than that outside IN the sun
shine, where the air is stirring. The
schools and public buildings are equal
~ frigid.
sIt seemed to me that the only warm
things in Japan were the babies, who
looked like bundles Of gayly colored
Grape, their round heads covered by
knit caps. They slumber peacefully
tucked down their mothers backs. The
attempt to keep warm in winter Is not
entirely a smedern Improvement though
it goes with western civilization. The
Koreans do it very thoroughly, the Chi-
nese to certain extent. The Japanese,
as race, continue to scorn it as they
always have done, and this is merely
one Of hundred examples which prove
that the Japanese are still true to taeir
traditions In their daily life and as yet
little affected in the ordering Of their
homes by the ideas adopted from the
west"

NOVEL CURES.

Unique Methods Employed to Over
CONC Certain Diseases.
Freezing, baking, illuminating, tor
turing, frightening and bruising are
among the accepted ways Of curing GER
tain diseases, says.a writer in the Phil
adelphia Times. For example, the bak-
ing cure: When one hasa well devel-
cped rheumatism, he is placed in spe-
cies Of stove and the crystals Of uric
acid are literally melted out Of bis body.
Another odd cure once tried for
rheumatism was burial in damp,
warm clay. The first rheumatic burial
took place at Menominee, Mich. The
treatment was not success, and this
form Of cure mas been given up.
The freezing cure: This was Srst in
troduced by Swiss doctor, Paul Bur
deyront. he placed his patients In
sheets immersed in ice water, packing
the patient all about with crushed ice.
This treatment is today used in typhoid
fever cases.
Or the patient is plunged into an ice
water bath. The treatment saves many
lives. Raging fever above 105 degrees
F. has been brought down by these
means to normal-98 2.5 degrees-in
less than ten minutes.
Neither Of these modes; Of treatment

Paris, N. Figeau, introduced in 1890 ar

froze the patient. The body was placed
in a chamber into which certain chem
icals were introduced. Ammonia gas.
by sudden evaporation, then produced
intense cold, and the blood in the body
lost most of it's heat.
NJ. FIgeau's method did not meet
with success. Some Of his patients
succumbed to the drastic measures,
and the practice was abandoned.

Dosing an Elephant.

4 difficult operation was PERFORMED
the other day at the geological gardens
at Hanover. An elephant was suFer-
ing great pain from a growth on the
lower part Of one OF its hind feet and
It was deemed necessary to cut this
malformation away. In order to rem
der the animal insensible dose OF 900
grains Of morphis in six bottles Of rum
was administered. This dose took
about an hour before any visible effect
was produced. The elephant then fell
over in a kind Of sleep, and the opera
ton was successfully carried out with
out any further ado. The operation
lasted in all three days.-London Globe.
