Painting by using compressed air to
put on the paint instead of brush is
now an old story, but by some recent
improvements in methods an invention
has recently been made of a machine
for house painting by which one man,
according to the claims of the inventor,
can cover from 10000 to $4,000 square
feet of surface per day, according to
the efficiency of the operator, and the
work will be equal to hand painting in
point of appearance and a good deal
more durable.
An average days work of the man
with the brush is 1000 square feet, or
just about one-twentieth Of the surface
covered by machine in a correspond
ing period. The average labor cost of
brush work is from II to Is cents per
100 square feet; with this machine not
over cent for covering the same sur
face. says a writer in Mines and Min
erals.
The principle of operation is the COM
pressing of air and liquid into a re-

cepJacle, while the compressed air dis
charges the liquid through the hose
and special nozzle in the form of fine
misty spray. BY means of the air
pump pressure of forty pounds may
be obtained in the receptacle in two or
three minutes, which can be increased
to $50 pounds by the continued pump
ing in Of the liquid. After this pres
sure has been obtained the machine
will emit spray automatically for at
least ten minutes without further oper-
alton. The liquid will permeate every
crevice and joint.
Yarn From Wood Pulp.
A new industry has recently been
started in Germany which offers con-
siderable prospects and possibilities
i. e., the wood pulp of cellulose tissues
made by the Patentspinnerei Actien-
gesellschaft, at Altdamm, near Stettin.
The spinning of wood pulp or cellulose
is the patented invention of Gustav
Turk, manager Of the cellulose works
at Walsun OH the Rhine, and DR.. Carl
Kellner of Vienna. If it is taken into
consideration that the process itself is
considerably cheaper than the usual
method of making yarn; that even the
shortest animal or vegetable fibers can
thereby be easily spun into yarn, and
that the price of the best quality of
wood pulp is only about one-third of
that of ordinary cotton, the advantages
and possibilities of this process are evil

Any one who imagines tnat this old
earth of ours is flying around through
space in exactly the same way every
year is very much mistaken, says the
Philadelphia Press. AS a matter of
fact, we are constantly collecting con-
tributions from other planets so fast
that Professor Nordenskjold says that
we gain 500 tons in weight every year
just from the collection of meteorites
Professor Newton says that our at
mosphere scoops up something like
100000 meteOrites of greater or
less size every day of it's mad career.
Conservative scientists have estimated
that our yearly increase in weight is
sc, 500 tons.
Most of these meteorites which are
caught up by the earth are extremely
small, usually between the size of a
pea and a cricket ball These are
burned up by the pace at which they
travel through the atmosphere and fall
impercepibly upon the earth in very
fine dust. This dust has been found
on the top of the Alps where it has
been separated out from the snow; at
the bottom of the Pacific, nearly five
miles from the surface, and even on
the top of tall buildings, such as st.
Paul's cathedral
Now and then a much bigger meteor
comes along. There is seen on the
Staked plains pit of two acres in ex-
tent, at the bottom of which is an enor-
nous rock. It is supposed that this is
meteoric stone Lieutenant Peary
found a meteoric stone near Discoin, in
Greenland, weighing fifteen tons. In
the British museum may be seen more
than 800 of these strange presents from
space, of which some 200 were actually
seen to fall
The Canals of Mars.
Doubters still insist that the SO called
canals of Mars are an optical illusion.
A late experimenter, Mr.. B. W. Lane,
made drawing of the chief markings
ON the planet, emitting the canals, and
when these drawings were copied by
two ladies and two boys from a dis
lance of ten feet Or SO all copies showed
canals in the positions given by
Schiaparell.
