! not the slightest contempt for women
who, if they thus carried their broken
off love affairs to American courts,
would excite only the scorn and laugh
ter of judge and jury.
Shocked by Her Proteee.
l shall never forget the shock I met
from information Of an intended
breach of promise suit to be brought
by a little English girl whom l had
met in one of my journalistic cam
paigns, and befriended to the extent
OF helping her to get a place in a
dressmaking shop. l found her weep
ing one day, and thought she might
have lost her place. But no. 1t was
a love affair.
My young man has gone to walk
ing out with another grill" she said to
me, land he says we oughtn't to get
married, as we're not suited to each
Other!''
. Dear Tae!" | returned, tits a good
thing you found him out in time, for
if you had married and then found he
| thought you were not suited to each
other, that would have been worse!"
I could treat the matter only lightly,
for it seemed to me that a really bro
ken heart would have hidden itself.
But he's got to pay!" exclaimed
the girl. 1--WE taken all his letters
to a solicitor. He's got a place at e2
week and can afford to pay $50
damages! Why, 1 even had some of
my wedding clothes made! Men
can't break off like that and not
pay"
What! Do you mean to say that
you who pride yourself on your re-
speciality would do such terrible
thing? Only common, vulgar women
do things like that" l exclaimed.
She explained to me that English
girls always expected to sue their
young men" when the latter broke
off engagements, and I washed my
hands of my protege in disgust.
| do not mean to imply that in Eng
land there are not women who keep
their unhappy love affairs locked in
their own hearts. I fancy there are
many, but certainly there are thou
sands, in the classes considerably
higher than the little dressmaker's
girl, who look upon it as only just and
right that faithless lover should pay
them for changing his mind and, as
they call it, cheating them out of a
home" 1t shows that marriage is
still looked upon as the only pro
fession" for the rank and file of
English women; that whether or not
love comes their way, they must
marry for the sake of having a home,
and it is for this "home" which has
been promised them and then denied
that they consider they are entitled to
damages"
Even if all young men kept their
promises and did not "go out walking
with other girls" there would still be
a large superfiuity of women, and it is
to provide for this condition that the
question of female emigration to
south Africa is being so generally dis
CuSSed.

Eiux for Cast Iron.

A serious drawback in the use of
castiron has been it's brittle nature,
the impossibility to braze it again
when broken and the fact that it could
not be brazed to other metals as
wrought iron, steel, copper, etc. All
these faults are claimed to have been
overcome by an English experimenter
in a f1ux which accomplishes the de-
carbonization of cast iron under the
exclusion of atmospheric air. Cast iron
will not form an alloy with other
metals unless it is freed from carbon.
1t is stated that the brazing is easily
performed, and Professor Martens, of

SOME RECENT DISCOVERIES
Troubles That Watches Suffer-Gas at
Eight Cents per 1000 Feet-FIux
for Castiron-New Alloy Found
Other Notes of General interest.

Like human beings, watches suffer
from eXposure-they take cold or
they may catch the contagion of dyna-
mos.
Watches often suffer from changes
Of temperature. After a watch has
been worn next to a warm body all
day it should not be left overnight on
cold marble or near an open window.
The cold is likely to contract the metal
pivots, and, however slightly, tighten
up the works. The next morning, for
no apparent reason, ones watch will
be found to be losing time. 1t fire.
quently happens that watches are
slightly magnetised by electricity
given off by the human body. Dark
people are more likely to exert this
influence over their watches. This
influence is, besides, more common
among women than with men. Per-
sons of this sort can never hope to
carry the correct time unless they
carry their watches in rubber or steel
cases. One must not lay his watch
down for the night in a horizontal
position. 1t should always be hung
vertically, as it is carried during the
day. If the pivot of the balance wheel
be in the least worn this change of
position tends to loosen the cap
jewell
Everyone has had a watch suddenly
stop for no apparent reason and go On
again when slightly shaken. This may
not happen once a year, but all
watches are liable to such an accident
This is due usually to the catching of
the delicate hair spring. 1t is caused
by some sudden movement such as
jumping On or off q car. The jolt
must come at the exact fraction of a
second when the spring is in position
to catch, so that the chances Of such
an accidnet are rare. A watch should
be oiled every Is months. Women are
said to be the best customers of the
watch doctor, since they seldom wind
their watches regularly. A watch
should be wound early in the day,
and not, as is the common practice, at
bedtime. The reason for this is that
the spring is then highest during the
day while the watch is being carried
and is less sensitive.-The Scotsman.

Gaseous Fuel,

A topic among Midland manufac-
turers is the propable future of Mound
gas. Many manufacturers are eX-
pecting great things. Professor
Lodge, principal of the New Birming-
ham university, says of it: 1.-THE
supply of gaseous fuel could be con-
Quoted over very considerable dis
tances. Towns go a great distance for
their water supply, and there is no
reason why they should not go a con-
siderable distance for gaseous fuel
supply. The supply Of fuel for fur
naces and large manufacturing oper-
ations and the supply of fuel for
household purposes are questions that
must be considered by themselves, but
it really looks as if gaseous fuel is go
ing to do for both. The real
solution of the fuel problem would
be the manufacture of gas at the
pits mouth, if not at the bottom of
the pits, and then carry, not the coal,
but the gas produced, into the towns.
If we calculate the size of the pipe
required to supply a town we should
certainly IND 1t pretty pig, out we
must remember the immense rate at
which gas could rush through pipes.
Water could not be driven at a prodigi-
ous pace, but with moderate pres
sure gas would rush along pipes like a
hurricane, and a sufficient quantity for
all purposes. While Professor Mond
arbitrarily fixes the price at s cents
per 1896 feet, he expects to produce
his gas at much lower figure. Mid.
land manufactures affirm that, if the
Mond realizes only half its expecta
lions they will regain their ascendency
over their American competitors. But
what is there to prevent American
manufacturers following suit?-Iron
Age.

Promising.

In these gentle days of spring
Everything is promising.
Cinnamon declare that they
Will step forth and duly pay;
Sultan wants it understood
That he's trying to be good;
All our cities make things warm
In the interests of reform,
And the trusts hold forth anew
Better goods and cheaper, too"
So the blooming of the May
Sweetly smiles and fades away,
In these gentle days Of spring
Everything Is promising.

SALT AS A HOODOO.
How SuperstitiOus Cleveland WON,
Get Even With Their LandIards

How SuperstitiOus Cleveland Women
Get Even With Their Landlords.
From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
number of Cleveland women had a lit
tie discussion the other day over a new
form Of hoodoo, at least it was new to
most Of them. 1t is a species of applied in
cantStfon that is resorted to by tenants
who want to get even with the landlord or
the landlords agent. When they leave
after the last load is ready to start they
throw salt behind the front door, That
hoodoos the house or the apartments.
Why said one lady, Il know a case
where the outgoing tenant did that and
they couldn't rent the rooms for three
months. That's right. Nobody seemed to
want them. The agent was constantly
kept busy running with prospective ten
ants, who came to look at the apartments
only to refuse them"
7 heard of case" said another lady
where the landlord raised the rent on a
family, and when they left they threw
salt behind the door, and you never heard
Of such luck as the landlord had. He got
tenants in that wouldn't pay, and he'd
have to sue em and put 'em out on the
sidewalk. and one tenant set the room
afire with gasoline stove, and the land
lord couldn't get any insurance, and the
wives Of two tenants presented their hus-
bands with twins, and this cost the land
lord four months rent, cause he couldn't
get 'em moved until they reached the mov-
able age. It was just awfulv'
"Oh, there are lots Of such cases. said
the woman who mentioned the hoodoo first
"And they say there Is but one way to
break the spell"
And how is that?" cried the other wo-
men in chorus
THE landlord" replied the hoodoo ex-
pert, must have the hinges of the front
door put on the opposite door post, so that
the door will swing the other way
And there the discussion ended.

BREATHE PROPERLY.
All Who Live in Towns Should Follow
This Advice.


From the London Express.
The secret of breathing is to great ex-
tent the secret of health, and all those
who dwell in towns should therefore pay
especial attention to the subject Normal,
unconscious breathing sustains life. but it
does not thoroughly extend the lungs nor
oxygenate the blood.
The lungs need to be bathed in air as
does the body in water. To do this re-
quires intelligence. forethought and con-
scious act.
Deep, voluntary, systematic breathing
strengthens weak lungs and protects the
strong. Quick and deep inspiration of
fresh air warm the blood when chilled by
standing in the open air.
1nhale always through the noStrils so
that the air may be warmed in the nasal
passages, and any impurities arrested
there. Contagious diseases are compara-
lively rare among those who breathe
through their noStrils.
distinguished psychologist asserts that:
Many people die for want Of breath."-
adding: 1T is their own care1esSness alone
that prevents them from breathing" Half
breathing is half-living. Many Of us use
only the upper half of the lungs when
breathing. Sometimes this arises from
want OF thought upon the subject, some
times from CONSTRUCTED clothing, which rem
ders deep inspiration impossible
To increase the lung power is to increase
the life power Deep breathing strengthens
the entire muscular system.
full slow inspiration Of fresh air which
penetrates the remoter lung cells and is
neld as long as possible, then exhaled
slowly through the parted lips, builds up
cells that have partially contra cted through
la Of use; 1t not only Increases lung ca
pacity and enriches the blood, but has de-
cidedly beneficial effect upon the throat and
vocal organs.
Moreover none need plead that they have
not the time to practice breathing properly
