Electric Perfume Extraction.

Professor Elmer Gates. founder Of
the Elmer Gates Laboratory at Wash
ington, has completed an invention by
means of which sweet scented blooms
are made to yield their perfume. De-
licious essences are now secured
straight from the blooming plant with
out injuring the flowers from which
the perfume is extracted. With an
electrical apparatus Professor Gates
secures the particles as they are
breathed upon the air by the flowers,
and drawing them down several
charged wires to glass jars, bottles
the various scents which distinguish
the rose, the lily and the violet. This
electrical method of extracting per.
fume from blooming plants, besides
utilizing the blooms to better advan-
tage than can possibly be done by
the method now in use of crushing the
flowers, also assures a much superior
quality of perfume.

Are the Glaciers shrinkino7

European engineers have been con.
graduating themselves that. although
the coal mines may fail, they have in
the Alpine glaciers inexhaustible
sources of energy. says Success. The
melting of the glacier ice gives rise
to mountain torrents. whose fall is
being utilized, more and more, espe-
cially since the electric transmission
of power has more nearly approached
perfection. The glacier is thus mine
of stored energy, and its ice has bee.l
somewhat POLITICALLY termed white
coal" But If the researches of some
recent French and German scientific
men are to be relied on, the glaciers
may fail us some day as we'll as the
coal mines 1t appears that the gla
ciers, not only of the Alps, but also
of other continental mountain ranges,
are shrinking, In some cases imper.

OF course, this may be only one
swing of the pendulum, and continued
observation may show that it will be
followed in future years by a proper.

How Fahrenheit Worked.

Fahrenheit's thermometer owed its
beginnings to the invention of Their
mometer by Newton, which was a tube
filled with linseed oil. and the starting
point of the scale was the temperature
of the human body, which Newton
called ~. He divided the space be-
tween his datum and the freezing
point of water into twelve equal parts
and stated that the boiling point of
water would be about 80 of these de-
grees on the scale. Fahrenheit, when
he began to work with Newton's Their
mometer, did not find the scale min
ute enough for his purposes. He first
doubled the number of degrees, max
ing the scale number "a instead of H.
Finding he could, by mixing ice and
salt, obtain temperature below freeZ-
ing, Fahrenheit next adopted this for
his starting point and counted "a de-
grees up to body heat, making the
freezing point s and calling boiling
water So. Later on he again divided
his degrees into four. 1t will be seen
that If the above figures are multiplied
by four the result Is the thermometer
scale called after him which is still in
use.

Coal Production In the South.

1t is only within the last few years
that one has heard much of the devel.
opment of coal mines in Tennessee
yet the production there has more
than doubled in the past decade. Ar
kansas has increased her tonnage
from an output of 100000 tons in 1892
to 2,125,7S0 tons in 1902, and it is
said that the production there is like
ly to be greatly increased still, as
some prominent Pennsylvania men are
making large investments there. The
output of coal in Indian Territory in
1890 was 750.s92 tons, while in 1901
the output had grown to 9.400,945 tons
The mines of Texas and other South.
ern states have likewise shown a re.
markable development. which, If kept
up, must prove great source Of
wealth and profit to the South.

Improved Railway Brake.

While the exertions of railway off,
cials to increase the speed of the trains
have resulted in many changes as re.
CARDS the locomotive, cars and road
bed, but little improvement has been
shown in brake appliances since the
introduction of the airbrake. When
this brake is applied gradually, as in
bringing the train to standstill at
stations, the friction lies between the
shoe and the surface of the wheel, but
when danger requires a quick stop the
wheels are often made to slide over
the rail, the resulting friction wearing
fiat place on the rim. In the draw.
ing we show a brake mechanism
which, while greatly increasing the
friction obtainable. transfers the wear
from the surface of the wheel to the
shoe provided especially for this pur-

being such that the weight of the car
is transferred from tn wheel to the

caused by the sudden appliance of this
brake spring buffer forms the con-
nection between the car frame and the
