their muscles and develop their bodies
to that state of perfection which we
often dream OF but seldom attain. Per.
haps the most plausible excuse for this
neglect of physical training is the lack
of time to go where the apparatus for
the work may be found, but this ex.
cuse can not avail to justify entire
omission of exercise in the future, for
an apparatus has been invented which
can be folded up and carried in the
vest pocket. 1t consists of thin rub
ber bag, with an elastic cord connect
ing it with band passing around the
fingers, and is used practically the
same as the punching bag, the alert
ness and swiftness of movement re-
Quired to strike the bag making up for
the lack of actual muscular exertion.
While the bag is small enough when
Debated to be stored in the vest pocket
it is fully eight inches in diameter
when filled with air, while its light
ness necessitates the employment Of
no inconsiderable amount of skill and
accuracy to drive it from the hand
even a few times without missing a
blow. Either one or both hands may
be used IN the exercise. and to vary
the speed of the return it is only
necessary to change the length Of the
elastic cord which connects 1t with the
finger loops. David ]. Wilson Of Wash
lngton, D. c., is the inventor.

Marvellous LIQUID.

An engineer of Munich, Max Eber.
hardt, gave recently a demonstration
of the effectiveness Of new prepare
ton for extinguishing fires. The trials,
it is reported, were successful The
preparation is liquid of a milky color.
The first experiment showed that the
skin. wnen painted with the liquid,
becomes insersible to heat.
Rags saturated with petroleum can
be burned upon the hand after it has
been immersed in the liquid. Small
fires can be extinguished with the
hands, and with one pailful of the
liquid a fire in pit of tar was put
out in one second. The tar, even after
petroleum had been poured over 1t,
could not again be ignited. as the
liquid formed thin, unreliable crust
which completely extinguished in
twelve seconds with a little more than
twelve gallons of the liquid. Small
quantities of the preparation are suffi.
cient for extinguishing purposes. so
that the damages produced by water
are avoided. The price of the liquid
is about rs cents per quart.

An INGENIOUS Invention.

The Hoppe Auto Pedal is the name
given to an ingenious invention which
has just been placed on the market
by c. J. Hoppe & Son. piano makers,
in this city. Its purpose is to corr.ct
the injudicious use of the. forte. or
loud pedal, in a piano. When uNcd
with the Pianola or other piano play
ing attachments. the Hoppe Auto
Pedal controls the pedal of the piano
like an artist, and does it automatical-
ly. thus permitting the performer to
fully enjoy the music with no tax "a
his mind as to this portion of tAA
playing. 1t gives the correct sostenuto
effect automatically. without requiring
perforated music TO be cut especially
for it, and can be attached to any
piano player without changing origin

conceived and planned by Florence J.
Hoppe. and was developed and con-
structed by Philip Wuest. Jr., super

the picture have been designed for use
where the light can not be placed
within easy reach of the hand to Oper-
ate the sparkling wires which light the
gas. With this appartus it is only
neCassary to open the valve in the
pipe, permitting the gas to flow into
the burner The latter comprises a
seal chamber and a diaphragm. togeth-
er with an electric igniter of the ordi-
nary pattern. A little study of the
drawing will show that when the gas
pressure is turned on the diaphragm
must expand in the seal chamber. and
this expansion is utilized to manipu-
late the igniter. by connecting the dia-
phragm to the pivOted arm which car
ries the sparkling wire. Upon closing
the valve the diaphragm falls of its
own weight and the igniter once more
adjusts itself ready to produce the
spark when the pressure is applied
again. The inventor is Charles 7.

Men have for some years past had
the temerty to hang out their signs as
makers OF ladies' suits and costumes,
but the man mlllner is as yet scarce
article. and liable to be so for some
time to come. Possibly the invention
we show here might have been de-
signed by a man milliner, If there had
been more of them in the business. but
as 1t is, the idea originated with a
woman, and is likely to be used almost
exclusively by women. The invention
comprises a number of clamps and a
pair of telescoping rods. with trian-
gular support for the hat at one end
and a screw clamp at the opposite end,
which can be attached to table, shelf
or chair. The hat support consists of

that it was all extracted from gold
ores with the bromocyanogen process
After the concentrates have been freed
of their gold contents. the remaining
matter is passed through a cylindrical
washer, and the arsenical fumes are
