SO recently that the hero OF this ac-
count has not had time to recover his
short going legs, a globe-trotting young
gentleman struck this beach as a sailor
before the mast, having worked his
way from Newcastle aboard a collier.
Not by profession a seaman, to which
fact the captain of the vessel will
doubtless take oath. the new arrival
left the good ship without a heart
break and is at present tourist, until
such time as he decides TO undertake
some more arduOus and more profitable

Upon sovering himself from the coal
carrier the traveller proceeded to the

way. as anyone familiar with Federal
Court proceedings in the Sailor Schirr-

OF the 105,693 sailors and marines

An Electric Typewriter.

II by the use of an applied power the
ordinary typewriter could be operated
by depressing the keys one-eighth of
an inch, requiring only the Iightest
touch to produce both the ordinary
impression of the type face and the
powerful stroke necessary for mani
folding. such a machine would reduce
by fully four-fifths the exertion which
the operator is compelled to put forth
in running one Of the ordinary ma
chimes. 1t is Just such a machine
which Connecticut inventor has pro-
duced, as illustrated in the picture. 1t
has its own individual motor. with con-
nection to an incandescent electric
light socket, and is stated to require
about one-fourth as much power to
operate it as is consumed in sixteen
candle power light. The type in this
machine is formed on the face of a
wheel, making partial revolutions in
either direction before being depressed
to the paper. Upon depressing any key
ever so little there is swift whirl
of the type wheel, a blow on the pa
per, and the wheel is back in place
before the operator can possibly touch
the next letter of the word he is writ
ing. Even the movements of the car

A common method of extracting
perfumes from flowers is enfieurage,
which consists in placing the bios
SONS in contact with purified lard for
Few days. When saturated with
the perfume, the lard itself may be
used, or the essential oil may be ex-
tracted under strong alcohol. The
process being tedious. many attempts
mostly unsatisfactory been
made to obtain the essential oil dI,

light petroleum. A curious recent
discovery is that perfume-mak still
goes on In the flowers during enfepr-
