YANKEE INVENTIONS.
Chinese Newspaper In the Philips
pines Describes an Ingenious
American COntrivance.

Admiral Dewey was prominent figure at
the Saratoga races. Unusually he occupied a
box. One afternoon little party of farmers
came up to shake hands with him, and there
after, naturally, the talk turned to agricul-
ture, says the Boston Post.
When was in the Philippines" said Adj
miral Dewey, AN American resident brought
me, one day, Chinese paper. He said this
paper would interest me because it con-
tanned an account of an American invention.
Then, with smile, he translated para
graph that ran something like this:
1.-The ingenuity of the Yankee is typified
well in a hens nest that he has recently in
vented and patented. This nest increases
the laying capacity of the hens to an UNI
limited degree. In the bottom of it there is
trap door, governed by delicate spring.
The hen lays an egg, the weight of'which
causes the trap door to open, wnereupon the
egg drops down into subterranean COM
partment, and the door closes very swiftly
and silently again. The hen gets up turns
to look at the egg, but sees none there. So
she decides that she must be mistaken in
thinking she had laid, and she sits down
again and deposits another egg, which, like
its predecessor, disappears. The process
continues indefinitely.

Texas Finds n Remedy.

Fate, Tex, Sept. 2l.-Texas has seldom,
II ever, had sueh a profound sensation as
that caused by the introduction recently of
a new remedy for kidney diseases. This
remedy has already been tried in thousands

| NOVEL PEDoGRApH.
Newly Devised Instrument Not Only
Registers Distance Walked, But
Also the Direction Taken.

The Photograph is a newly devised
instrument which not only makes a
record of the distance travelled by a
pedestrian, but of the direction taken,
SO that at the end of tour a map
can be shown giving the distance COW
cred and direction taken in black and
white. 1t is the invention of a man
named Ferguson, who gave a descrip-
ton of the machine before the Engin-
GERS society, of Shanghai
The Photograph. according to the Bal
timore News, is contained in box
that the person walking bears before
him suspended from the shoulder by
strap. This box contains a small
board, on which is fixed a sheet of
paper which is to receive the tracing,
parallel to the board and at a little
distance from it being a plate of un-
polished glass. The active portion of
the instrument-called the recorder
is composed of small metallic frame
bearing wheel with pointed teeth
which rests on the paper and traces by
punching holes. The recorder is sup

by small wheels. The board is
maintained vertically under the action
OF its own weight, the descent being
regulated by the shake given each time
by the steps of the bearer
Here are the essential portions of the
recorder. A small moving body-ar-
ranged as an equilibrated pendulum
long spring acting on very small
lever which, at each oscillation, makes
advance to the extent of tooth, and
ratchet Wheel the axis of which car
ries an endless screw geared to the
printing wheel If the ratchet wheel
has so teeth, so oscillations will make
one. round OF it's axis and the printing
wheel has made a mark for SO oscil-
lations or steps. If the interval of the
teeth of the printing wheel is 1.20 of
an inch corresponding to so steps.
1000 steps will correspond to one inch
or one-half mile, 1000 steps to two
inches or one mile, etc.
The board is always vertical and is
fixed in the middle of horizontal axis
connected with the box or envelope.
and consequently the board may turn
around this axis. At the upper par,
of the boX-which a spirit level always
keeps evenly held-is piece CARRYING
magnetiZed needle forming a COM
pass. A button, which is turned by
the hand, makes the piece in question
always coincide with the needle. if a
turn in the direction causes the walker
to deviate from the original direction
A little transmitter composed of two
pulleys of the same diameter and an
endless cord connects the piece carry
ing the needle to the axis of the board
so that if the bearer changes his direc-
ton to right or left the board inclines
from one side to the other of its orig
inal direction, while always remaining
the same as the g.ass in a vertical
plane. 1t will be found that the re-
corder thus not only traces the dis
lance, but also the direction in which
the bearer is going.

A Peculiar Bird.

There is peculiar bird commonly
known as the ''kiwi," its scien-
tific name being apteryx mantelli. 1t
Is the lowest form of bird which ex-
lists, but is SO scarce that scientists are
happy to get a specimen in any condi-
ton. 1t is absolutely without wings or
tail; it's legs are short, stubby, but
very strong, anu are used by this bird
for digging. The Lody covering is a
cross between hair and feathers-a
material which is very coarse. They
can develop great speed, and make a
desperate fight when attacked. Breed
ing them in captivity has utterly
failed, and only few museums can
boast of a specimen. They are now
very rarely found in the forests and
swamps in the north of New Zealand.

Ehe day was when men of prominence
hesitated to give their testimonials to
proprietary medicines for publication.
This remains true today of most pro-
prietary medicines. But Peruna has
become so justly famous, its merits are
known to 50 many people of high and
low stations, that no one hesitates to
see his name in print recommending
Peruna.
The highest men in our nation have
given Peruna strong endorsement.

PEACE INSTITUTE 0PENlNG.
a Fine Attendance the First Day---Short Talk
by DR. pinv iddie

Peace Institute opened yesterday with
fine ATTENDANCE. At II o'clock informal
exercises were held in the chapel After
prayer by Rev. Mcfarland Mr. Dinwiddie
made a short opening talk, in which he
spoke of the work and the aim of tn"
school after which he announced the work
as assigned to the members of the faculty
Mr.. Joseph G. Brown then
welcomed the pupils in behalf OF the city
and people, speaking in his usual happy
way cordial words of greeting to faculty
and students. Continuing he said: THE
influence Of woman has ever been para
mount; see to it that your character j.
such that you will JOIN with honor the
ranks of the noble women who have gone
from Peace to brighten homes throughout
the South. Let the home be more cut
tured and refined, your surroundings more
sincere and harmonious, and the music OF
life sweeter for your part in them"
MI Alex b. Stronach was asked to
speak, but being bashful man he was ex-
cused just then upon promise to give at
some future date "reminiscences of Peace
in War and Peace.
Dr. Alfred Moment then spoke with
earnestness, saying that he congratulated
the young ladies upon being at college,
and particularly upon being at Peace,
where the atmosphere is that of a cul-
tured home. "In your work here take ad-
vantage of your three great opportuni-
ties: First, for intellectual advancement
Gain from your books and your teacher all
that they can give Second, cultivate the
social life. Woman is the great factor in
the social structure, and tact and sym
pathy and graciousness of mind and soul,
make the cultured woman. Third, be
prayerful students. BE joyous, happy
Christians, making the Bible the guide of
your daily life Cultivate about you the
spiritual atmosphere that rpens the rose
bud of youth into the perfect flower OF
womanhood."
Announcements were then made, after
which the demolition was pronounced,
The work for the year begins with great
enthusiasm. All the courses have been
carefully revised and several new ones are
offered The faculty is busy assigning
work and classifying pupils and it is earn
estly requested that all students enter as
