The Liquids Boiling.

first one is how to make two cold
liquids boiling hot by mixing them.
This requires only a small vial, some
sulphuric acid and little water. All
you have to do Is to mix two parts OF
sulphuric acid with one of the water.
Put the acid in the vial first and then.
when you have added the water. stir
the mixture together with glass rod
and the liquids will become hot in
stantly, and soon, If you have a ther-
mometer, take the temperature and
you will find that it is above boiling
point.
No end of curious results may be OBJ
tained by simply mixing liquids to-
gether, provided you have the right
liquids. For instance. II you mix GER
tain liquids they will form an almost
solid mass. What could be more won
derful than this. and yet there are
few things simpler. Put few tea
spoonfuls of concentrated solution
of silicate and potash into wineglass,
and add to 1t very gradually sulphuric
acid. 1t is better to add the sulphur
ic acid drop by drop. Now stir the
mixture together and in very few
moments they will become converted
into an Opaque white mass which will
be nearly a solid.
Have you ever seen glass blowers
at work? If you haven't. you have
missed very interesting sight, but
it will not prevent your being able
to do this little experiment and be-
sides, 1t may give you some slight idea
of the glass blowers work. The ex-
pertinent is to unite glass tubes. To
do this you need simply two glass
tubes of any size and kind you prefer.
Heat the two ends which you want to
join together over the flame of a lamp.
Gas will do, of course, but the lamp
flame is better. When they are suffi-
ciently softened by the heat bring the
two ends together, and having held
them that way for a moment, twist
them in opposite directions with a
screwing motion in order that they
may be securely jointed. There will
now be thickened ring of glass at
the place where the two tubes are
joined This rather spoils the looks
of the tubes, but with a very little
more trouble 1t can be removed. One
end of the tube must be sealed up with
wax, or in any other way you desire.
Now soften the entire tube over the
lamp and then blow into the open end
of the tube, pulling gently at the tube
at the same time until the ring en-
| tirely disappears and the whole tube
is equally cylindrical. The sealed end
of the tube may now be unsealed or
| left just as you please. but it can be
used in more experiments if it is open
at both ends than if only one end is
| free.

If all solid substances might not be
liquified-that is. turned into a liquid
form-if they were heated enough. At
any rate, they did wonder about 1t,
and from time to time they have tried
first one substance and then another,
until now they know that large num-
ber of elements which in the natural
state are in the form of solids may
be liquified. provided sufficient heat
can be had, but In some cases the
heat needed is very great, much great
err than can be made in an ordinary
fire.
In the same way. If the heat can be
still further increased, the liquid will
turn to a gas.
1t must be understood that besides
the extraordinary amount of heat gen
orally needed for this sort of work
there are certain other conditions that
must be observed. For instance 1t is
generally necessary to do the heating
in such way that all air is kept away
from the substance or else the oxygen
of the air would combine with 1t and
form a new compound.
This Is one of the reasons that It is
SO difficult to perform such an expert
ment. Even in the case of lead. as you
may have noticed. when it was melted
there came over the surface a fine
scum which was not lead. but com
bination of oxygen and lead.

A Legislative Joke,

This is story told in Albany: Ac.
cording to the official roll call of the
Assembly on the liquor tax increase
bill, Assemblyman Treat. republican of
Cayuga, didn't vote. Mr.. Treats at
tention was called to this when some
of the newspapers referred to him as
a dodger. He therefore took an early
opportunity to have the journal cor
rected. announcing to the Assembly
that he voted AYE" in a good, loud,
round tone of voice, and that the clerk
in not recording him had made a mis-.
take.
Would it be fair" said Mr.. Lynch,
addressing the chair, ito suggest to
the clerk that he missed Treat?"
THE gentleman gets thirty days for
that" answered speaker Nixon, put
ting in some of his finest gavel action

Conundrums,

Why is a fish dealer never gener.
GUS? Because his business makes
him sell fish.
How many soft boiled eggs could
the giant Goliath eat on an empty
stomach? One.
When is COW not a COW? When
she is turned into pasture.
Why is fish hook like the letter
F? Because it will make an eel feel.
Why is a man taking a nap like
man reading a paper? Because he's
enjoying his (s) nooze (news).
What holds all the SNUFF in the
world? No one nose.
What is the difference between
hill and pill? One is hard to get up
and the other is hard to get down.
Why should compliment from
chicken be an insult? Because it
would be in fowl language.
What is that which lives in winter,
dies in summer and grows with its
root upward? An icicle.

The CLIMBING Perch.

Very various contrivances are
known by naturalists to exist in cer-
tain fishes for the purpose of enabling
them to exist independently of a con-
tinued residence in their native ele-
ment. One of the most notable of
these contrivances is seen in a curious
fish known as the Climbing Perch"
{Anabas scandens) found in Central
Asia. Daldorf related that he cap
tured one of these fishes lin the act
of climbing palm tree that grew near
pond" The average length of this
aquatic tree-climber is seven inches.
Examination of the head of the
Climbing Perch" shows that it pos
sesses a very peculiar arrangement
of thin bony plates, so disposed as to
form highly intricate kind of laby-
rinth, the obvious function of which
is that of retaining a supply of mois-
ture, serving the place of the water in
which the fish normally lives.

How Horses Sleep.

1t is not generally known that at
least four out of every ten horses do
not lie down to sleep. The horse that
sleeps in standing position rests
one leg at time, depending on the
other three to sustain the weight of
his body. The habit is very danger
Gus one. Only a short time since
fine horse in the stables of big manu-
featuring firm went to sleep while
standing in his stall and fell heavily
to the floor, breaking one of his legs.
A great many horses are permanently
injured as a result of accidents of this
nature, and there is no way of curing
them of the habit.

INVITATIONS TO THE WEDDING
Woes of the Man Who Gets One and
and What II Costs

A wedding invitation is practically
an admission ticket, costing $50 tai
the church service; reception at tho
house afterward. extra; cards to the
at home, more extra.
When a man gets an invitation
nowadays he feels as he does when
he has been served with subpoena.
He sputters about the idiocy of mar.
riage in general, and wonders why in
thunder, or somewhere else where
thunder is unknown. those little fools
didn't just stand up and get married
and get it over with. Then when he
calms down he is inveigled into max.
ing an appointment with his wife at
some jewelers.. There he is met with
n bewildering array of silver trowels,
meat saws and miniature pitchforks,
which his learned wife explains to
him are fish knives. lettuce servers
and berry forks respectively.
Then. as his eyes wander about the
store, he spies golden ball. perfor-
ated with fancy holes, and he ven
lures the facetious remark to his wife
that they might take time by the fore
lock and send that baby's rattle.
Wnicn is met Dy tne cnlllinB reJoln IL
der that that is tea ball. and it is
just the very thing. And so the man
hands over the necessary and his vile
directs where the golden tea ball shall
be sent.

man being required to attach his carl
to dinky tea ball and send it to a
young couple as a mark of his good
wishes fail either of expression or de-

ton to find among the inmates a gen.

who wanted his money. The official
took him aside and heard him lay his
case lucidly and sensibly before him.
The man seemed to be so remark
ably clear-headed that the commits
sioner made notes Of the case and
promised that he should not be long
detained. He spent some hours in
making an inspection of the institu-
tion, after which he again saw the
unfortunate gentleman and expressed
the deepest sympathy with him, con-
fined there sane among the mad.
But do not fear" he added: your
case will be gone into at once. and
your discharge will be speedy. There
is no doubt about your sanity"
"Thank you! A thousand times
thank you!" said the gentleman. you
will never regret the trouble you are
taking"

chatting as they went, and shook
hands cordially at parting. The COM

With Such a Reward in Sight, the
Danqer Was Forgotten.


Danger Was Forgotten.
Jim" Johns. one of the active Re-
.publicans of Upton. was in the city
yesterday and one of his friends told
good story on him that dates back
two or three weeks. Johns is in In
dianapolis frequently. and on one of
his visits he was walking down Penn
sylvania street with James r. Cole
and d. J. Mendenhall of this city,
when their attention was attracted to
a magnificent pair of elephant tusks
that were exhibited in shop window
They admired the ivory for. several
minutes.
Great, aren't they, Jim?" observed
Cole. Johns conceded that they were
fine. but started to remark something
to the effect that Upton could pro-
duce larger ones, when Cole added:
Have you any idea how much
they're worth, Jim? Those tusks rep
resent just S1600.' -
without word Johns turned,
walked over to the curb and began
peering up and down, the street.
What on earth are you 'doing?"
asked his friends. whS' tr

and became a reporter on the West

he founded the PostDspatch. AS an

do with actual Office holding. He was
elected to Congress in 1885. but re-

Skeleton of Prehistoric Reptile.

Skeleton of Prehistoric Reptile.
An interesting new exhibit has been
added to the geological department of
the Natural History Museum, Crom-
well road South Kensington, England.
1t consists of the tail and other bones
of gigantic reptile. the remains of
which were discovered in the Oxford
Clay at Peterborough. by Mr.. Alfred
N. Leeds. The tail is incomplete at
both ends. but still measures 20 feet
in length. and geologists compute that
the whole length of the creature could
not have been less than 60 feet.
clue to its height is also afforded by
left hind limb measuring IA feet.
and the right fore limb Is also pre-.
served. Tail and these two limbs.
however. make up all of the reptile
that Mr.. Leeds has been able to dis
cover. The creature is, in technical
phrase, a Sauropodous dinosaur, and
this particular species has been
termed Cetiosaurus Leedsi, in honor
Of its discoverer.
