The Home of Echoes.

Many valleys described in guide
books as whispering valleys are ia
vorite resorts for tourists in all parts
of the world. Few, however, exceed in
wonder a valley at Stansfeld in Es-
sex, England. The rector of this par
ish in giving a careful account of his
own experiences states that his house
stands on a hill 2SS feet above sea
level, rising in rear to 300 feet, while
in front the ground slopes away to a
stream 100 feet below and again rises
$50 feet on the opposite side. From
the rectory the bells of IA or Is viii
lagos may be distinguished. while
across the valley footsteps and voices
in conversational tone may be heard
at half q mile.

When Richard Wagner was conduct
or of the Royal Opera in Dresden, the
orchestra of that institution, though
one of the best in Germany, was far
from being as good as 1t is now, and
Wagner had a good deal of trouble in
making it follow his intentions. Some
years later, when he was living as an
exile in Zurich, he undertook to train
the local orchestra. After a few at.
tempts he exclaimed, Gentlemen, you
have just given me a great pleasure;
you have played exactly as badly as
the Dresden orchestra"
The Zurich players laughed and the
idea that they might play better than
the royal musicians in Dresden so fired
their zeal that they actually succeeded
In doing 1t.

Eyes that are wide apart are said to

The aEarringe Cure.

One remedy against indigestion is

us that it is the celibate young barris-

eats alone. He generally reads during
his meals, which is bad. or he reads
directly, he has bolted his food. which
is likewise bad. Obviously, therefore,
matrimony is bar to Indigestion

Polished Furniture.

When polished table is stained by a
hot dish, one restoring process is to use
first wood alcohol and then linseed or
olive oil. This treatment is excellent
for keeping any polished furniture in
order andsis one of the few things for
which wood alcohol may be used. The
latter is cheaper than the pure and for
certain domestic uses is quite as good.

TO EUROPE IN FOUR DAYS.
Inventor Makes Great Claims for Non
Explosive Gas.

ITO Europe In four days without coal, at
half the present expense for fuel to drive
an ocean steamer" is what Hoboken en-
gineer claims for his new process OF
burning a Very little petroleum with
eight-hve pcr cent. of redhot compressed
air Charles A. Kuen7el is his name, ana
he tells plain story which others who
have seen the machine working corrob-
crate.
They said that after years of experiment
n little discovery patented few weeks
ago gave the long sought solution to the
problem of making a nCn-eXplCSiVe gas
out OF petroleum and air, which burned
like oxygen and which a child can use and
control without the slightest danger from
explosion or suffocation. This new force,
to run steamships, railways, automobile
and machinery, was dry gas, the FIRST, L
was asserted, ever produced In practical
quantities.
BY the now Hohoker process common
kerosene oil is mixed with compressed hot
air, forming gas. Just as this gas enters
the tirebox of the engine, through small
PIPES within other pipes, passing over gas
jets, 1t becomes 80 hot that every trace OF
moisture is expelled. and at that instan,
1t becomes dry gas, which Yill not explode
GENERATES A FIERCE HEAT.
| This is the gas which bursts into fame
as it flows from thousands of little needle
holes in the pipes lying on the furnace
CRATE The heat is so fierce as to convert
water into steam almost instantly.
"You can better understand the value oi
my discovery" said the inventor, "wher
/ say that you nay turn full head OF thi,
gas into a Ied-hot furnace end there vii
