Miseries of the Red Sea.

In the waters Of the Red sea the ces-
sation of the engines on steamer for
an hour means extreme physical suffer-
ing for passengers. For day it would
involve absolute torture. The wind
which prevails every day is a hot, as
phyxiating blast, and its continuous
directions are from north and south
toward the center. AS a result every
passing vessel is subjected to two days
Of almost intolerable heat, followed by
two days of comparative comfort, but
instances have been known Of crowd
ed liners being compelled when trav-
cling with the wind to turn round and
steam back for an hour or 80 In order
to give the passengers even brief res
pite from the sufferings induced by
the dull, dead, unbearable atmosphere.

HORSEPOWER.
The Unit as 1t Was Originated and
Defined by Watt.

The Unit as 1t Was Originated and
Defined by Watt.
When steam engines were employed
to drive mills, pumps and other ma
chinery which had been previously
driven by horses, it was natural to at
tempt to express the work done by
them in terms of the working power
of the horse.
James Watt was the first to define
the unit of horsepower, which by ex-
pertinent he found to be $1,000 foot
pounds a minute. In other words, a
one horsepower engine would raise
$4,000 pounds one foot every minute,
and SO on proportionally to the number
of "horsepowers'' indicated by the en-
gine
He arrived at this conclusion by OBJ
serving the work done by heavy dray
horses in breweries working eight
hours daily and found that horse 60
ing at the rate of two miles and half
an hour could raise weight of $50
pounds by rope led over pulley,
which is equal to $1,000 pounds raised
one foot in one minute.
Watt, for the credit of his engines,
selected horses of more than average
power.

MAHOGANY WOOD.
The Way 1t Came to BE Used I'm the
Making of Furniture.


Chippendale owes his reputation to
the fact that he published book of
designs with over 200 copperplate
engravings, so that today any one who
wishes may get them and reproduce
them exactly or with such changes
and improvements as suit his fancy.
That they are capable Of improvement
Chippendale himself was the first to
declare. Chippendale was one Of the
first makers of mahogany furniture.
Before his time this precious wood was
valued only for the medicinal qualities
1t was supposed to possess.
The idea of making furniture of ma
hogany wood appears to have been the
result of chance. A certain physician
in London had a great many mahogany
planks, and, wanting candle box, he
sent for a cabinetmaker and instructed
him to use the mahogany for the re-
quired article of furniture. The man
objected that the wood was too hard
for his tools, and the doctor told him
to get harder tools. The man did so,
and when the doctor saw the box he
was amazed at its beauty. Patients
and friends talked about it, and at last
the Duchess of Buckingham came to
see it. She was enraptured and per-
suaded the doctor to give her wood for
a similar box. AS a result mahogany
got to be the fashion.

In Days Long Gone by 1t Was Held
In Disrepute.
In olden days to be crowned with
elder was disgrace. In an old play
we read, Laurel for garland and
elder for disgrace" This may have
been due to the story which Shake
speare has noticed that Judas hanged
himself upon an elder tree:
Well followd; Judas was hanged on an
elder.--'Love's Labour's Lost
This legend was generally accepted.
Ben Jonson in Every Man Out of His
Humour' has, HE shall be your Judas,
and you shall be his elder tree to hang
on" and Nixon in his Strange Foot
steps," "Our gardens will prosper the
better when they have in them not one
of those elders whereupon so many
covetous Judases hang themselves"
Shakespeare also makes it an en-
blem of grief:
Grow patience
And let the shrinking elder. grief, untwine

vine.-"Cymbeline.'

TANNING A TIGER.
The Way a Snowman Got Friendly
With q Fierce Beast.

The Way q Snowman Got Friendly
with a Fierce Beast.
A zoologist thus describes how an
attendant brought about friendly rela-
lions with fierce tiger:
"There was a Snowman I used to
know named Melchior. He once bought
a magnificent Bengal tiger, which he
got at low price because it had al
ready killed two men.
cat first Melchior would put his foot
or his hand into his cage, but from the
way the tiger would leap at him he
knew that to put himself entirely in
its power would be suicide. Nothing
he could do would establish friendly
relationship between himself and the
tiger.
"Some originality was needed, and
Melchior showed it by taking some old
clothes, stuffing them with rags and
throwing them into the cage. The
tiger in q jiffy tore the old Clothes to
pieces, thinking that the figure was a
human being.
Next day and the next day and the
next Melchior continued to throw In
to the tiger stuffed figures, and the
tiger continued to destroy them. But
as time passed the animal ceased to
put heart into its work and in the end
it gave up altogether these attacks on
the scarecrows. 1t would just play
with them or else not notice them at
all.
''Now was Melchior's time. He open
ed the cage door one morning, walked
in boldly and slapped the tiger familiar
ly on the back. 1t gave him friend
ly look and purred. 1t took him for
another manikin not worth bothering
about 1t lived seven years with Mel
chior and became as gentle as kit
