Flexlble Metal Hose.

A flexible metal hose is made at
Phorzheim, Germany, by rolling up a
metal band like a screw thread, the
joints being made tight by a cord of
rubber on asbestos The material is
galvanized steel or phosphor bronze
The hose is very flexible. Its tendency
to untwist when roughly handled is
overcome by making it double, with op-
poslte windings. 1t is intended for
mining purposes, is eight inches in dia-
meter and will stand a pressure of 200
atmOsphercs.

a fire broke out in the engine house,
which was completely gutted. One OF

snapped, and the cage descended the

had to enter the pit of the Ferndale

miles underground to reach Thomas.

Washed Overheard.

Captain John Hodson, a night inspec-

apparently led charmed life. When
boy Of sixteen years he left his homo
In Norway, throwing away his chances
Of following In his fathers footsteps
as an officer in the Norwegian Army

he has sailed all over the watery globe,
and only a few years ago quit the
sea after having been in many disas-

Sea Islands, and only by a miracle es,
capped with his life, but the most re-
markable experience he had was while
captain OF schooner trading between
the sound and California ports.
On one occasion he took q cargo of
lumber from the sound to San Pedro
Before leaving the sound the ships
carpenter made some repairs to the
hull of the vessel and during his work
the chips from piece of lumber he
was hewing fell into the hull of the
vessel between the lumber and its
sides. Shortly after leaving port the
vessel encountered a heavy gale, and
the ship commenced to leak. The
schooner's pumps were started, but the
chips which the carpenter had dropped
into her hold clogged them up. The
captain put his vessel right before the
wind and ordered his men to take out
the pump and clear out the chips
While this was being done lie stood
with the man at the wheel to see that
the schooner was kept right ahead of
the wind. Waves Of enormous height
were chasing the schooner. and one OF

"a Montana Bluf.o

What is regarded as one of the tall
est bluffs" on record furnished Cap
tain Edgar Russell, chief signal officer
in the Philippines during the insurrec-
tion. with story, which he tells as an
example of Western nerve.
"We We're outside OF Manila in some
little scrap" said the Captain, land
about seventy-fye natives We're lying in
a trench ahead of us, shooting away
merrily, but not hitting anybody. By
and by l noticed q little disturbance
in our front. Presently four Montana
troopers trotted out OF our lines and
started straight for the Filipinos. Ev-
erybody looked at them with wonder,
and waited to see them all killed. Bull.
lets whistled all around them, but they
never halted. Slowly. just at trot,
they logged on toward the enemy.
The natives fred and fired, but for
some unknown reason did not hit. On
and on went the quartet, disdaining
cover. AT last there was n shout, and,
to our utter astonishment, we beheld
the seventy-ive Filipinos suddenly
jump out of their trenches and take
to their heels in mad flight. The nerve
of the Montana troopers was too much
for them. When they had all fed,
throwing their rifles away as they ran.
the troopers came back, their arms
full Of guns. That is what the Army
has come to call a Montana bluff It's
the sort Of nerve that lets a man open
a jackpot on pair Of deuces."

Reckless daring is so often displayed
by worlmen whose daily labors place
them in positions of danger that those
who have to deal with them are aston
ished at no feat Of bravado. Mr.. Frank
Skinner gives McClure's Magazine an
instance of this daring on the part of
men who were engaged in replacing
the Niagara suspension bridge.
1t happened that so many valuable
tools We're dropped from the bridge
that some of the more careless losers
one day man dropped wrench 200
feet to the waters edge, he foolishly
started to recover it by descending
hand over hand on a steeply inclined,
thin wire cable nearly 500 feet long.
He had no sooner started ON his in
sane exploit than a rival, out of sheer
bravado, essayed to descend on an ad-
jacent rope. After going few feet
they both realized the almost impossi-
Bile nature Of the journey they had I'M
| dertaken, and tried to return. 1t could
not be done, and the only chance of
safety lay in continuing their descent.
1t seemed to their Mortified com.
panions that human muscles could not
| endure the increasing strain of that
long passage downward. The foreman
shouted instructions, interspersed with
violent abuse, the object Of which was
to divert them from the fright that
added to their danger.
By what seemed almost miracle
both men held on until they had
crossed the water. Then one of them
dropped safely into tree-top. The
other finally gave out, and fell con-
siderable distance to the ground. Both,
however, escaped practically unhurt.

ABUSE OF FUEL.

The high price of coal, caused by
the strike now ending, have carried
with them salutary lesson. 1t has re-
minded our people that they have been
using fuel wastefully. The natural
resources of the United States are so
great that something out of the usual
is necessary to convey the lesson that
there is limit to them. But it is not
merely in the matter of wastefulness
that fuel has been abused The sani-
tary argument is even stronger than
that based on economy. In America
we indulge in hot rooms to degree
unknown in other parts of the world.
Some of those who lecture us ON the
subject probably err on the other
side. The cold rooms of Germany and
France have their drawbacks, and
there is reason to believe that they
are often insufficiently heated. But
that does not, in any degree, excuse
the hot rooms to which Americans are
very commonly subjected. 1t is not
the degree of cold which is so fatal to
health as the sudden transition from
heat to cold. To quit room at the
temperature of a day in July and go
into zero temperature is necessarily
perilous, yet this is a common Incl
dent of American experience. 1t has
cost many q man his life, and caused
others troublesome attacks Of illness.
With coal at abnormal prices the
temptation to use too much fuel is not
so strong. When normal rates are re-
stored, it is altogether likely that most
of the people will forget the prudence
which necessity has taught them.

ance, and generally all the abilities we pos
sess depend on that source OF life. It is
therefore the duty of every sensible man to
keep the blood as pure and normal as pos
sible. Nature, in its infinite wisdom, has
given US thermometer indicating the state
Of the blood, which appeals to our reason
by giving notice of its impurity. Small
eruptions Of the skin, to which we scarcely
pay any attention. headache, ringing noises
in the ears, lassitude. sleeplessness, are
generally sign that the. blood is not in its
normal state, but is filed with noxious sub
stances. These symptoms deserve our full
attention. If more attention were paid to
those symptoms, and steps taken to. re-
move them then many illnesses from which
we suffer would become unknown, and the
human body would become stronger and
healthier. Attention therefore should be
paid to those warning signs, and the blood
can be purified and poisonous substances
removed from it by the use of DR.. August
Koenig's Hamburg Drops, discovered more
than so years ago.

Patrolling the Ocean.

r A plan is projected by which regu'
liar line of steam lifeboats shall do on
the ocean what the Red Cross Society
does on the battlefield. 1t is to be
known as the International Blue Cross
Line, and will have a certain number
of specially designed boats, which will
patrol the seas over fixed and known
routes, following the main ocean high
ways. 1t is believed that if captains
knew that at a certain time one of
these boats would be within sight of a
certain latitude and longitude, many
crippled ships and their crews would
be saved 1t is proposed to make the
plan business venture, with fixed
salvage charges. and this promises
better for its success than If it were
