BURNING PAPER. TRICK.

hold a match to the end few seconds
and your friend will drop the strip as If
somebody had knocked it out of his
hand, because the strip has burned his
hand badly. The strip of paper is pre-
pared in the following way:
Take strip of paper II inches long
and bend it in the middle, curl both
sides by pulling them through your
thumb and knife held in the hand in
such way that they stand out like two
clock springs. Lay the strips together,
holding the two ends between the
thumb and index finger, and to try it
on yourself light the other end. AS
soon as the paper is burned through the
two parts of the strip will spring back
over your hand and you will drop them
in a hurry.-Chicago Tribune.

Back in 1895, the French government
offered a prize for the best method of
preserving foods, and this prize was
won by one Appert, who used glass ves-
sells in his process. Then an English
man taught the world to use tin cans
in place of the jars, and finally the
Yankee put his wits at work and pro-

Body Acts as Mngnet

Prof. Murani, a distinguished Italian
scientist, says that certain persons pos
sess a strange magnetic or electric in
iuence, which produces curious res,s4s
A few days ago while at work on some
electrical experiment, one of his friends
suddenly entered the room, and at the
same moment theneedle of his galvanom-
eter moved to and fro very rapidly
He was sure that his friend had in one
of his pockets either magnet or some
other electrical instrument, and in or
der to convince him that he was mis-
taken his friend removed all his clothes
To the professors surprise the galvanom-
eter continued to act just as If a pow-
erful magnet was near 1t, and the
closer his friend approached the more
marked its action became. Moreover.
the front of the body acted on 1t in the
same manner as the positive pole of a
magnet and the back as a negative pole.

RAIN AS A PURIFIER.
Theory Long HaId by American
Scientists Proved by Recent
Hen1th Tests in London.

The health department has often
called the attention of the public to
the fact that rain Is a great purifier,
and there is some highly interesting
testimony to the same effect in a re-
cent number of the London Lancet,
which is fortified by references to a
recent examination and analysis.
Beginning with June 13 London had
a continuous rainfall for five days, the
total precipitation being estimated at
3.S inches. On the third day of the
period a supply of raindrops was Sc
cured for an investigation, and it was
found that the solid matters contained
therein amounted to 81 grains per
gallon. Among the constituents noted
were common salt. ammonium sui
phate, organic ammonia, SCOT and sus-
pended matters and nitrates. The
Lancet assures us that the quantity of
ammonia sulphate, .652 grains, was re-
markable, and that it's chief origin is
the combustion of coal Salt con-
trobuted 8 grains and SCOT and sus-
pended matter 5 grains. With this
analysis and an estimate of 6.437, ,229,-
$50 gallons for the total rainfall over
the London country area as the basis
OF the calculation, it is figured that the
enormous downpour represents the
washing out of no less than 3,73S tons
of solid impurities, of which 800 tons
consisted of common salt, 267 tons of
sulphate of ammonia, and 1000 tons
of SCOT and suspended matters" An
other interesting computation is given
as follows: Regarding the combus-
ton of one ton of coal to produce 20
pounds of ammonium sulphate Ga very
fair average) the quantity of coal rep
resented by the storm would be 29,9O4
tons"
The Lancet adds that besides the
publication which is shown by the
analysis there is archaeological puri-
fication also, which of course is very
important factor in the beneficent
work of the rain.-Chlcago Record

tunity is offered for the dissemination
of this disease through the agency OF
flies, particularly the house fly
In view of these facts. the impor
tance of keeping flies out of tho
kitchen and away from all food sup
plies cannot possibly be overesti
mated. To this end careful protection
must be invoked. and every effort
should be made to eliminate all places
that are favorable for the propagation
of flies. Manure pits should be thor
oughly screened, and where it is not
practicable to adopt this measure
chloride of lime. if used in liberia,
quantities and well sprinkled through
the manure, will prevent the develop
ment of any eggs which may be de,
posted in this material. The out,
house also should be thoroughly
screened, or better yet where practi-
cable, should be done away with alto.

the human body be more easily and
safely disposed of than through tho
medium of water. Running water Is
now so generally available that there
would seem to be little excuse for not
utilizing it in this connection an,
thus doing away with the many ,b.
jectionable features of the primitive : js-
tenn still so largely in use in the coun-
try. The water-carriage system of dis
posal, to be sure. raises other sanitary
questions, but none that cannot be sat
isfactorily answered even ia county
places. The cesspool. once so much
dreaded, has az last under proper
management won for itself scientific
recognition and approval, and coun
try places in which it is not available
are rare.-Country Life in America.

CULICIs AND MOSQUITO.

first two specimens of the parasite
upon the study of which the scientist
has based his theory that a formida-
BILE foe of the mosquito has been
dragged from retirement.
AS far as the process of killing mos.
quitoes by the new method is con.
cerned there is nothing more simple.
One small egg, raw, does the work
and when once the destroyers have be-
gun, nothing can prevent then from at
least decimating the marsh popula,
ton. The solution of the matter will
be to induce the mosquito to eat tn:
egg.
Once there was a man." said Prof
Smith in his laboratory in Rutgers
college, New Brunswick, "who adver-
tised remarkable poison for the ex-
termination of potato bugs. The first
direction he gave was to catch tho bug
and then he advised that as much of
the poison as necessary be forced
down the insects throat. When | sent
the two specimens to DR.. Stiles did
not anticipate the possibility of ex
sale fashion. In fact, 1 had not named
the worm. DR.. Stiles knows much
more about worms than l do and l
see that he has given the creature the
title of agamomermis culicis.
"As to the origin of this creature we
must confess that have no informa
ton. l found fe wof the parasites
in hn lac
quitoes this season have more. Sta
tistics which l am gathering from va.
rious parts of the state show that in
some localities ten per cent of the
pests are infected by parasites, and
one lot which 1 received this morning
from Cape May had 81 infected mos.
quitoes out of ISL.
Il think that owing to the many
eggs which the worm lays, next year
the mosquitoes will be fewer. It In
a provision of nature mat when a spe.
cies become so numerous as to be
troublesome its enemy attacks it with
great vigor.
Now that is the way it is this yea1
with mosquitoes. They have multi.
piled so that there is no peace, and
the threadworms are after them. 1t
is the female mosquito only that bites
human beings, and these thread
worms prevent them from so doing
This whole question which has
been raised by DR.. Stiles is so new
that l cannot at the present pass upon
the feasibility of propagating thread
worms. think, however, that some
thing of the kind might be done. Eggs
OF the worms could be sown in the
breeding places of mosquitoes. They
would hatch out thread worms, which
in turn would la yChousands of eggs
each, These eggs, taken up by tho
young mosquitoes, might greatly re-
duce the pest."-N Y. Herald.

THE WOMEN LEADERS
Some Who Have Been the Heads of
Great Movements.
Mrs. stowe, Susan n. Anthony, Flor
ence Nightingale and Clara Bar
ton Are Typical of
Glass.

Mother" Jones, with her little army of
textile workers marching on to appeal
to the president in behalf of her par
ficular cause, brings up before us forms
'of other women leaders; leaders, how
ever, whose efforts are regarded in quite
a different light from those of Quixotic
Mother" Jones. Various names and
movements deserve mention, but space
allows hurried glance at only few.
AS child, Mrs. Stowe showed remark
able ability as scholar, but the most
widely-known work from her hand,
Uncle Toms Cabin" speaks rather of
deep feeling than of giant intellect The
strong anti-slavery feeling with which
the book is permeated had its growth
begun in early girlhood, when the little
Harriet Beecher sat listening to the fiery
denunciations uttered in the pulpit by
her father. The Beechers all along were
very outspoken on this question, even
after removing from their New England
home to Cincinnati, dangerously close to
southern territory and southern preju-
dices. Whilst residing in Cincinnati,
Mrs. Stowe frequently visited the south
and thus became familiar with the sur
roundings which later were to be so

the return of the Stoves to New Eng
land Mrs. Stowe, fearing the fugitive
slave act might lead to the spreading
of slavery even to the northern states,
and feeling that people did not at all
realizethe horrors of slavery, set to work
TO attempt book that would have some

to become, and when the story was pub

much attention. But presently it grew

TRICK WITH MATCHES.
An Amusing Experiment md One
That Never Fails to Create
Lot of Surprise.

In plate or basin filled with water
place eight matches in the form of a
star, as shown in the accompanying
picture, taking care that only the lower
part of each match shall become wet.
and next prepare a magician's wand in
such manner that it will resemble a
short ebony staff with two ivory tips.
A suitable ebony staff can be made by
putting a coat of black varnish on a
small tin tube, and as substitutes for
the ivory tips small cylindrical piece
OF soap and another of sugar must be
used. Seeing these white objects at the
two ends of the staff, the audience can
readily be made to believe that they
are ivory tips.
If you want the matches to come to-
gether, all that is necessary is to dip
the sugar tipped end of the wand in the

FLIES SPREAD DISEASE.
Why IT Is Important to Keep the Lit
tie Insects Away from All
Food Supplies.

In paper written in 1900 by DIR.
L. o. Howard, chief of the division of
entomology at Washington, on "The
Insect Fauna of Human Excrement,
with Special Reference to the Spread
of Typhoid r'eyer by Flies" it was
shown that out of 27,0S7 flies which
had been caught in different parts of
the country in rooms where food was
exposed, as would ordinarily be the
case in a kitchen or dining room,
more than 50 per cent. of the insects
so taken were ordinary house flies.
House flies breed to very large ex-
tent in horse manure, but they are
very often attracted and frequently
develop in human eXcrement. An in.
dividual fly lays on an average of
about 120 eggs, which in a few hours
hatch into larvae, or "maggots," and
after another transformation at the
end of ten days eventually become
full-grown adult insects.
When we consider these facts, it is
not to be wondered at that typhoid
fever often prevails in the country,
especially when we consider the un.
sanitary system so often in use fol-
the disposition of human excrement.
Under these conditions every oppor-
