In East Oakland, Cal, is to be tried
a plan for helping homeless girls
which seems almost ideal in method
as we'll as in purpose. A rich and gen
erous-hearted woman has declared her
intention of building ten cottages, each
of which will accommodate ten girls
and be in charge of a "house-mother."
The cottages will stand in a beautiful
mark. with trees, lawns and flower
gardens about them. The inmates Of
each cottage will constitute a separate
family. the older girls helping to care
for the OUNCE ones. All will attend
the public schools as other girls do,
and will have their own outside diver
sions and friendships. Meantime they
will also have in the home a thorough
training in homework. AS they reach
a suitable age, each will receive spe-
cial education in whatever trade OF
field of work she may select-teaching
dressmaking, millinery, typeWr1tlng
art or music-so that when she leaves
the home each girl will be equipped
to earn her own living. One OF the
most attractive characteristics OF The
undertaking is it's lack Of institutional
restraint and the large individual Tree
dom which It permits.

Speaking of the summer and win
ter journeys wealthy people make to
various resorts here and abroad, a
shrewd observer of city life remarks
that "the finer the house on the
avenue, the less it is occupied" In so
far as that is true, it is to be regretted.
At every season, in some favored re-
gion, nature spreads a fairer roof thar
ever architect devised; but we may
leave paradise behind us when We set
out to find a better place than home

Doctor Voges, the director Of the
Buenos Ayres National Board OF
Health, reports that during a recent
trip to Paraguay he accidentally dis
covered that napthalene is an excellent
remedy for mosquito bites. 1t neutral

bite has caused considerable infamma-

napthalene no swelling follows.

set of bellows, which are SO made that
they can be fitted underneath an or
binary spring rocking chair, together
with an ice chamber and adjustable
discharge pipes. One portion of the
bellows is secured to the under side of
the chair seat and the opposite end en-
cages the frame on which the rockers
rest, in order that the motion of the
chair when being rocked may open
and close the bellows to receive and
discharge the air. In the lower por-
ton of the bellows is located a sliding
drawer, which can be drawn out for
the insertion of a cake of ice of any
desired size, and the air circulates
around this in entering the bellows,
being then discharged through the
nozzles attached to the ends of the
arm rests. AS these nozzles are ad-

eyes," said a Chicago business man
to a reporter; "tyes, we think we nave
hit upon one of the greatest inventions
of this age of invention, and when the
busy world is introduced to u
phono-typograph it will stop a mo-
ment in amazement and admiration.
That may sound to you like a clause
out of a circus bill, or a chapter from
a Chicago novelist's novel, but 1T is a
true bill, nevertheless. You are aware
that for a long time there have been
efforts to combine in some way the
present style of typewriter and the
photograph, but until now these eff
forts have invariably failed. A year
ago we discovered in Chicago a young
mechanic who had solved the problem,
as we believed, and we put money
back OF our belief, and told him to go
ahead with his machine until he had it
where he thought it ought to be ready
to be offered to the world. 1t is hardly
that yet, for the best machine is sus-
ceptible of improvement, but we think
we have a good thing.
"Of course, / can't give you all of
the details, but I think / can make
clear to you the general working prin-
ciple of the phono-typograh. AS its
names indicates, it is a typewriting OF
sound. That has been the idea in all
other attempts, but it was no found
practicable, because the sounds were
words, and there were too many words
to reduce to machinery, as it were. the
photograph and the telephone princl-
pie got the sounds all right, but each
sound was a word and that could not
be put in type. Our man, however, hit
upon a separation of the words into
letters, and that brought his field OF
operation into the limit of twenty
six sounds. For punctuating marks we
use spaces, but as yet we have no
capitals. The machine, of course, is
electric, and the operator talks into it
as into a telephone, except that he
spells out each word and as the sound
of the letter strikes upon the disk it
is reproduced upon the corresponding
letter, which in turn is printed exactly
as the ordinary typewriter would print
it.
cat FIRST blush the spelling out o.
each word would seem to entail more
time and labor than the old style o.
, typewriing, but a very few hours viii
show any person that our phono-typo
! graph will do the work of two people
in half the time they will consume b.
the existing methods. We are willing
to admit that our machine is not per

goes, and it goes a good long way, it i

and no warm breakfast waiting, and
how disguised 1t must feel when the
farmer comes in a little later with a
pail of SKINNED milk, straddles the
calf's neck, inserts his finger in its
mouth and tries to convince 1t that
drinking is the proper method OF feed
ing from that time On. Happy would
be that calf if the farmer would pro-
vide it with the feeding arrangement
here shown, and happy would the
farmer be if he did not have to waste
his time in teaching the calf to drink.
The calf seems to get along fairly well
until the farmer undertakes to with
draw his finger and make the calf go
it alone, but then rebellion rises and
en- upset pail is the result in some
cases. Once introduce the calf to this
device and he may bunt to his hearts
content without upsetting the milk.
The arrangement consists of a reser-
voir, suspended from the wall, with a
tube leading to a block underneath, on
which is mounted a rubber nipple. AS
the nipple is screwed on the block it
may be removed as soon as the feeding
is finished, or the entire feeder can be
taken down if desired.
GROWTH OF COKE INDUSTRY.
A report on the growth and present
condition of coke manufacture has
been issued by the census office, says
the Black Diamond. The report says
the manufacture of coke is a compare
lively new industry in this country. IL
1850 the value of coke produced wa
SIS. 25O, while in 1899 it was 1885, 85,
445, including ~by-products amounting
to 1852, OPT in value, Or an increase o
over 100 per cent in ten years, from
1889 to 1899. This ex~traordinar.
growth OF the coke industry has onl
kept pace with the growth of the iro
manufacture.
According to the report the moder
tendency of industry to concentrate i
a comparatively small number of es
tablishents is strikingly exemplif1ed i
the coke industry, where there is a
increase of only 10.6 per cent in tn
number of establishments reported, q
compared with 1889, while the increas
, in tons of coke produced is 96.2 pc
, cent and in the value of all product
q 1857 per cent.
: A capital of $780, O2, 679 has been il
vested in the manufacture of the pro-
. uct. The, value Of the output was $95
5S5, 445, to produce which involved g
outlay of $7,085, 1876 for wages, SIS
665, 532 for raw materials and $2,l84
968 for miscellaneous expenses.
Pennsylvania leads the six chi
, producing states, with 26,92O ovens

He has sounded it to the depth of

Roval Museum at windsor Cattle.

The interesting little museum of
relics from foreign countries which
was arranged at Windsor castle in
honor of the diamond jubilee is to re-
main intact; and the present cdta-
logue privately printed for the use of
the lord chamberlain's department,
when the museum is shown to the
kings guests, will therefore still re-
main in force, says an English news
paper. A large number of relics of the
same type are being accumulated at
the castle from the collections hitherto
housed at Marlborough house and
Sapdringham, and oom is being made
for them, in the armory, and also in
the guard chamber, which at present
contains the Tippoo Sahib trophy, as
well as the Celini shield, commemora
tive of the field of the cloth of gold.

Color of Butterflies.

Butterflies change their color ac-
cording to the heal of the atmosphere.
This interesting fact has been discoV-
cred by M. Sandfuss Of Zurich, Swift
zerland, who subjected 10000 butter
degrees of the SUMS heat. On one oc-
casion, it being unusually cold in Swift
zerland, a butterfly common there took
on the appearance of a butterfly from
Lapland. On the other hand, butterflies
which were subjected to a higher de-
gree of solar heat than the normal
looked as if they had been born and
raised in Corsica or Syria. One result
of these novel experiments is the pro-
duction Of butterflies OF an entirely
new type, some of them being Of be-
wildering beauty.
