BRIDGES and Vibration.

There are very few bridges in the
world over which troops are allow
ed to march in regular step. In
general, when coming to a bridge,
particularly suspension bridge, the
drums or bands are stopped, the ar
ray is broken and the soldiers pass
over without keeping step, or rather
taking pains not to keep step. The
reason is found in the fact that a
very slight initial vibration, if con-
tinued, is impaired to the whole
structure, and in a short time be-
comes so strong a downward strain
at every recurrence as speedily to
endanger the safety of the strong
est bridge.
The same principle is illustrated
in some houses, which can be made
to tremble from roof to foundation
by persistently and regularly press
ing with the foot on a loose board
in one of the floors. A similar curl
Gus circumstance is seen in the case
of certain churches in which it is
dangerous to play the heavy pedal
pipes Of a grand organ, for the rea-
son that the vibration becomes so
great as to shatter the panes Of
glass in the windows and even to
imperil the safety of the roof.

Warts.

A simple remedy for warts is a dram
of salicylic acid with an ounce of col
lodium in bottle which has tiny
brush run through the cork. Apply
this mixture to the warts twice day,
and in a few days they will dry up and
fall off.-Ladies' Home Journal.

A collateral result of this notice was
that two or three of the best photo
graphic artists of the city had more
work on their hands than they
could attend to. The dlrec'
result was sixty-five letters
with as many fair maidenly coun-
tenances as would fill good-sized al
bum. The answers were in some cases
accompanied by parental certincate'
setting forth in touching language the
charms and virtues of the daughters.
The young man replied to each OF
his correspondents that, before coming
to a final decision, personal view
would be of advantage. To each of the
ladies', without the knowledge OF the
others, he sent ticket for an orcnes-
ira stall in the Scala Theater, an
nouncing that he himself would be in
a particular box, the number and sit
uation of which he stated.
A few evenings later the play-going
public Of Milan were perplexed to ex-
plain the appearance of one OF the
rows of stalls In that immense build
ing. A long line of beauties In toll
cites of extreme elegance. unbroken by
a single black coat, was observed.
Furtively, and with trepidation, did
each damsel from time to time raise
her opera glass to that box-the cyno-
sure of many bright eyes-in which
the graceful youth reposed.
Suspiciously, and with darkened
brow, did each damsel turn to the long
file of her neighbors, and wonder at
the magnetism which drew each glass
to the one central spot. BY and by the
audience, to whom some hint OF the
secret had leaked out, began to give
audible signs that they enjoyed the
joke. The sporadic laughter Of the
theater increased the confusion Of the
young ladies,a and the contagion of fun
turned the sporadic mirth into gen.
eral roar.
At this point our informant drops
a veil over the scene.

There are some $50 GASES In tho
Sahara, of various sizes. One OF the
chief is Biskra. which has not less
than 1905 palms. and from which
come large quantities OF dates. The
French Sahara covers 123,5O0 square
miles, and $4,000 Arabs live in 1t. In
the GASES they build their houses be-
meath the palms, which afford much
needed shade from the hot sun. Sun
dried bricks are the chief things used
in making these houses. Palm trees
provide any timber Necessary. The
houses are two stories high. ' But for
the low doorways, one would think
they were high walls only. All the in
ternal light is obtained by openings on
the court yard, round which the house
is built. The Arab home Is somewhat
OF a prison for the women, who are
rarely seen abroad. They take their
walks upon the fiat roofs, which are
common to all eastern lands. But few.
Arabs live in houses. They are great
wanderers. Wherever you travel In
Algeria you are always meeting long
caravans on the move. These Bed
ouin live in tents, which are simply
camel cloths stretched over boughs.
For the most part they are very poor.
and live on the produce of few sheep
and goats. ;.-> az
The chief item in the Arab costume
is "a white cloak called the burnous.

When Manila fell there were prac-

which announced that 1t would not

Immediately upon the occupation OF
Manila the question Of wires assumed
a serious phase. Indeed the trouble be-

the destruction of our wires was the
first hostile act Of the insurgents. Up

He opened, repaired, improved and ex-
tended it with astonishing ability
utilizing even fence wire and untwist-
ed wire rope, and always managing to
destroy the portion of the territory he
was forced from time to time to yield.
The insurgents knew the value Of
wires and at every opportunity few
men would slip BY our lines or be-
tween them and haul away as much as
they could conveniently carry.
Cable, though far more costly and
requiring more time to lay, could be
maintained in the Philippines; for the
Filipino had no photographed" nor
graphing and cutting utensils. The
war department decided to- establish
complete cable system, with alternates.
