OLD GAME OF TIT FOR TAT
Tourist Gave Bad Money to Conductor
Who Wouldn't Stop to Let
Woman Off.

The conductor was talking to the mo-
torman, both looking ahead, as the car
bowled merrily on. A woman standing
in the rear seats motioned in vain for
stop, relates the New York Press.
Hey" shouted man in golf clothes
and tourists cap, this lady wants to
get Off" Another twist of the lever and
the car ran with greater speed. .Oh,
dear, dear!" exclaimed the woman.
This remark was not especially adj
dressed to the man in the tourists cap,
but he thought it was. Jumping from
his seat he grabbed the leather cord
nearest him and yanked it viciously five
times. who did that?" asked the con-
ductor, savagely. II did, yelled the
man.. "I'l teach you to run past streets
without paying attention to your pas
sengers." "And I'll teach you to ring
up fares without paying me-" retorted
the conductor. THAT bit of exercise
will cost you Is cents" "Take it," scorn-
fully remarked the man in the tourists
cap, handing over a coin. The conduc-
tor gave him a quarter in change and did
not discover until he cashed it at the
end of the run that he had been taking
bad money.

DOZEN MESSAGES AT ONCE
by Use of Tuning Fork - High
School Professor It's Inventor.

The invention of new methads for
sending a number of messages stimuli
taneously over the same wire continues,
and one of the most recent or these is due
to Prof. Mercadier, of the French high
school for post and telegraph. In this
method an alternating current is en-
ployed whose frequency depends upon
a tuning fork having certain definite
number of vibrations. The current of
such an interrupted circuit can be brok-
en- by an ordinary key, and signals trans
mitted over the line wire by an induc-
ton transmitter. On the line at the dis
tant station are a number Of sO-ca,led
monotelephones which respond to cur
rent of one frequency, and are tuned to
the forks in the circuits at the sending
station. Thus each particular circuit
has its own telephone, which is con-
nected by tubes with the ears of the re-
ceiving operator and responds to the
signals made at the sending station In
all, II transmission circuits are pro-
vided, so that "a messages may be sent
over the line simultaneously.

INDIANA WATERS MAGNETIC
Springs in the Hoosier State Are Said
to Cause Deviation of the
Compass.

A reputable scientific publication is
sponsor for the state ment that there ex-
lists in at least three places in the state
of Indiana springs or wells whose wa
tiers possess marked magnetism and are
able to impart it to steel objects dipped
therein. This property has been re-
ported of other springs in various parts
OF the world, but such tales have been
received by scientific men with caution.
In this case the magnetism seems to
arise from the fact that considerable
quantities of carbonate Of iron are dis
solved in the water. When it stands
for some time this deeomposes into car
bonic acid gas, which escapes, and mag
netic iron oxide, which falls to the bot
tom of che containing vessel as a pow
der. When the decomposition has
ceased the water is no longer magnetic.
These springs are said to cause per-
ceptible deviation of a compass needle,
and a knife blade immersed for five min
utes in one of the springs is magnetized
sufficiently to sustain needles by its
point, retaining this property for 80
hours. The water corrodes locomotive
boilers, but when allowed to stand still
till the carbonate has all decomposed
can be used with impunity.

ILLNESS RULED BY INCHES.
London Physician Declares That Ones
Q Stature Has Great Effect
Upon Health.

Among the most interesting of the
L papers read at a recent meeting of the
British association at Cambridge was
that of DR.. Shrubsall on the physical
characters of hospital patients. Suffer-
ers\ from tonsilitis, rheumatism and
heart disease, he said, are of a higher
statute and sufferers from tuberculosis,
)nervo&s and malignant diseases Of
lower STATURE than healthy individuals.
1t appeaTs that blonde sufferers from
pulmonary tuberculosis respond to treat
iment better than brunettes, while in dis
eases of the heart the positions are re-
yersed. 1t is believed that in successive
generations of city life stature shows
progressive fdiminution and that there
Is an increase in brunette traits with
each generation passing from rural to
urban life. With increasing length OF
residence there is an increase of NOR
bidity among the different classes of
Londoners. Some causes which tend to
damage the quality of the race were re-
viewed in an interesting manner by II.
Balfour in the anthropological section.
Sir John Gorst spoke against the preva-
lence of early marriages, particularly
among the poorer classes. He declared
that the race was being propagated in
undue proportion by the poorest and
feeblest.

MANY USES FOR JAP FANS.
Their Motion Indicates Thoughts and
They Take Places of Several
Kitchen Necessities.

There are many curious uses for
fans In Japan. The umpire at wrest-
ling and fencing matches uses heavy
one, shaped like a huge butterfly, the
handle being the body, and rendered
imposing by heavy cords of silk. The
various motions of the fan constitute
a language which the wrestlers fully
understand and appreciate One nota-
BILE variety of fan is made of water
proof paper, which can be dipped in
water. and creates great GOODNESS by
evaporation, without wetting the
clothes. The fat fan, made Of rough
paper, is often used as a grain win
now, to blow the charcoal fires, and as
a dust pan. The Japanese gentleman
of the old school, who never wears a
hat, uses his tan to shield his eyes
from the sun. His head, bare from
childhood. hardly needs a shade, and,
when it does, he spreads an umbrella,
and with his fan he directs his serv-
ants and saves talking.

GERMANS EXCEL IN BOOKS
Their Exhibit at the Worlds Fair Re-
markedly Creditable-Most In
teresting Ever Shown.

The exhibit Of books at the St Louis
fair is one of the most interesting ever
shown in America. OF the foreign ma
tons participating, Germany easily
takes the lead, followed by Great Brit
ain and FraEcs as close seconds. Ma
tional characteristics come out strongly.
The English, under the influence of the
Morris art revival, show the finest book
bindings; the French have an exhibition
samples Of sumptuous editions de
luxe" The German exhibit is more
painstaking. 1t shows samples from
all grades of publishers in art, literary
and music production. The Germans in
these exhibits still use wood engraving
for multicolOred work while waiting for
Photographic processes to develop them
selves further. They make haste slowly.
The Gothic text Of German books is the
cause of much Of the prevalent German
short-sightedness. Publishers of scien-
tific books often use the Roman text.
Quite as often nowadays, in their en-
deav to compromise, they work out beau
tiful black-letter texts which combine
the Gothic art aspect and the Roman
clearness-such texts as Morris would
have appreciated. German publishers
profit greatly by their instinct Of organ
ization, shown in such as the Leipsic
BoOkcraft association, which maintains
museum of printing, conducts schools
for apprentices and in other ways exert
a conservative influence upon the art
at its caDital

TOO FOND OF OPERATIONS
Surgeons Of the World Criticised by
a New Zealand Brother Because
of Love of Art.

A New Zealand surgeon has started
discussion of modern operative methods
in surgery which has awakened great
wrath in the bosoms of specialists
They resent, bitterly. this surgeons sug-
gestiOn. offered with true fraterual cour-
esy, that operations, such as that for ap-
pendicitis, are often performed just to
be ADDING. For instance, attention is
called to the removal of the appendix
every time when an abdominal opera,
ton makes it easily accessible To this
London specialist makes the tart re-
ply that abdominal operations may be
Hkened to the art Of burglary. The risk
is in entering the house. That safely
achieved the wise burglar is not salts
fed with two srcc~s En- tai es all the
family plate This similitude has been
caught up again by the opposition and
carried on into the subject of fees 1t
is strongly intimated that the surgical
Zeal is 2 hollow shell with all the or
gans removed by operation and the
pockets inside out.

VALUE OF THE NORTH STAR
Only One in the Firmament Whose
Position Never 'Changes-Facts
About Others.

The pole star is really the most impor-
tant of the stars in the sky; it marks the
north at all times; it alone is fixed in the
heavens; all the other stars seem to
swing around it once in "a hours. But
the pole star of Polaris is not a very
bright one and it would be hard to iden-
tify but for the help of the so-called
pointers in the Big pipper'' or Great
Bear" The outer rim of the dipper
points nearly to Polaris at a distance
equal to three times the space that sep
arates the two stars of the dipper's out
er side. Various Indians call the pole
star the home star" and 1.-The star that
never moves" ~ and the dipper they call
the broken back" The Great Bear is
also to be remembered as the pointers
for another reason. 1t is the hour hand
OF the woodlands clock. 1t goes once
around the north star in about "a hours.
the reverse way of the hands of watch:
that is, it goes the same way as the sun
and for the same reason-that it is the
earth that is going and leaving them be-,
hind.
