Greater Flow for Niauara.

To rebuild Niagara Falls and thus
to harness the power Is the burden OF
a unique scheme that HES from Can
ada. 1t has for its foundation the
turning back of the waters of the
Chippewa river, making it's present
source its mouth, and it's outlet into
Lake Erie instead of into the Mag
ara river as nature arranged. Be.
tween the present headwaters of the
Chippewa, which, under the contem.
plated transformation, would become
its mouth, and the headwaters of the
stream which would CARRY their com.
bined volume to Lake Ontario Is a
stretch of several miles. This would
have to be excavated which those
who are promoting the project hold
would not be task either difficult or
expensive. They say, in fact, that
their whole undertaking will be easy
from an engineering viewpoint. With
the course of the Chippewa reversed
advantage can be taken for power
purposes of the 800 feet drop between
the level of the Niagara river, above
the falls, and the level of Lake On.

Saving in time and better kept
boilers is claimed for a plant recently
installed IN Pennsylvania for remoy-
ing foul water from locomotive boil
ers. The heat OF the foul water is
saved and utilized in heating the water
fer refilling and the water change is
made without allowing any steam to
escape into the atmosphere or with
out discharging water on the floor of
the roundhouse or into the pits. Dur
ing the twenty to thirty-fve minutes
required for the operation, the tenn
perature changes in the boiler but
slightly, not more than 80 degrees, or
from $50 degrees Fahrenheit to 800
degrees, and if the boiler showed a
steam pressure of 100 to 125 pounds
at the beginning, and the fire is bank
ed during the operation, the steam
pressure will not have fallen below
rs pounds to the square inch.

StoNenine Ventilation.

A means of making use of the stove
pipe as a ventilating system has been
made the subject of a recent patent.
This is primarily designed for gas
stoves, from which there is generally
some disagreeable odor, and for coal
stoves used in sleeping rooms and liv-
ing rooms, which means of heating
is always open to the danger that the
draughts, failing to work properly,
will send out an overwhelming blast
of gas, which under some conditions
means death to the occupants of the
room.
In order to make use of this appa-
ratus, hole Is cut in the lower part
of the stovepipe near the point where
it enters the wall, and over this fun
nel-shaped pendant is placed, it's bot
tom being several inches below the
lower edge of the pipe. This appara-
tus is designed for ready adjustment
to the pipe. 1t consists of three pieces
of metal, the funnel, circular disk
fastened to the small end by which
the thing is fitted closely to the pipe,

secured at either side of the disk.
A piece of asbestos is used to bring
about a tighter union between the

that all the air passing from the room
through the pipes shall be drawn
through the funnel. 1t will be readily
seen that If from any cause gas es-

Kate for Harmony.

Morning dawned amid a raging
snowstorm, but thanks to the logs and
frozen mud with which the little cabin
had been daubed, the patient was
comfortable
Kate brought some warm broth and
gave him a few spoonfus, and he
whispered:

Paul acquiesced in her plan by sim
ply nodding his head and closing his
eyes, and she resumed her work.
When he awoke there was a marked
change in his manner, and he was re-
gaining his strength. She brought
him, some more broth, and, after he
had taken few spoonfuls, he said:
did you say you came from Seat

"Yes-I ought not. They struck
me on the head"
He shut his eyes and tried to
sleep and she went to the door Of the
little cabin. All was clear. She saw
one of the Indians lettering near and
called to him and ordered him to go
to the next camp and ascertain what
had detained the dog sled.

Where is he?" she asked, her man
ner at once changing.
He is at the grove mile or two
back on this trail.
"Why didn't we bring him here?9
Because he is too weak TO bring
so far. Besides, we have built a
shanty and made him as comfortable
as possible"
SO skillfully did he manage it that
Laura was detained in the camp and
Kate Willis sent flying back in her
dog sled. As evening came Laura de-
clared her intention to go to her
female companion, but the rascally
Esquimau who had been posted what
TO do, could not catch tae dogs to
harness them to the sled
She found herself alone in the camp
with those strange men, and her soul
was filled with dread.
But morning brought Kate back.
Her heart was filled with sympathy
for the unfortunate young man.
Il will go with Kate" declared
Laura.

better soon, for | see a sign in his

She was easily persuaded to wait
another day before she called on the
sick man. Laura little dreamed that
the unconscious stranger whom her
companion was nursing was the one
her fond, loving heart longed for
Thus, in blissful ignorance of the
peril of her Paul. she waited for the
train to move on. She had not long
to wait. Next morning, long before
1t was light, she was awakened by
the noise of Esquimau transfers and
yelping dogs and cracking whips
She hurriedly dressed and gazed out
into the starless night. She saw an
cry clouds gather about the mountain
peaks, and the air was full of flakes.
"Sled ready" the Esquimau chatter
ed.
She made haste to get ready to take
her place on it. All was hustle and
confusion. Laura looked in vain for
the face of some one she knew For

crack went his whip, and the dogs
bounded forward like the wind.
Stop! Hold" she shrieked, but
her voice was lost on the raging wind,
and she went soaring away into the
night and beating snow
Meanwhile Paul lay on his hard pal

nurse at his side, her eyes on the face
Of the sufferer. He was sleeping
peacefully. The fever had almost
abated, and his brow was less flushed. |
The woman held the lamp closer to
his face and muttered:

cOrrigible Fighters.

The Males Of Both Species Are In
cOrrigible Fighters.
A very quarrelsome disposition has
the chickaree, or American red sQuir-
rel, and there are continual fights be-
tween it and it's cousin the gray SPUR
rel. These fights seldom end in a de-
cided victory for either side. The males
Of both species are incorrigible fight
ers. 1t is no unusual sight to see a
couple of red or gray squirrels come
tumbling from some lofty limb SO lock-
ed in each others embrace as to appear
almost like one animal.
Though the shock Of striking the
ground separates them, it is for mo-
ment only. They Immediately clinch
again and continue to roll over and
over, fighting fercely until one breaks
away, only to be followed by the other,
who keeps up running fight for some
distance until he feels certain that he
has SO punished the conquered one that
he will not dare return.
Red squirrels by their greater agil-
ity and quickness can worst gray
squirrel every time in a running fight,
but let them once come to clinch and
the superior size and weight Of the
gray squirrel are bound to tell.-Chica-

A NOTABLE DWARF.

Ihe witty Debut of BOrulwaski, the
Famous Little Pole.
A very notable dwarf was Boruiwaski.
the Pole, Of whose debut the following
story is told: AS boy Of fifteen, when
he was just one inch higher than a
two foot rule, he was presented to the
Empress Maria Theresa, who was so
charmed by his grace and good looks
that she seated him on her lap and
gave him a hearty kiss. "And what do
you consider the most interesting sight
in Vienna:" she asked the boy. What
l now behold" he answered. "And
what is that?" Why" said the tiny
courtier, ito see SO little Il man on the
lap of so great a lady" Naturally q
youth who exhibited such a ready and
courtly wit had a distinguished career
before him. From that day Borul-
waski became the pet of the courts Of
Europe. He was special favorite of
Stanislaus H.. who took him to Eng
land and introduced him to George
III. and his family, and for more than
half century he made his home in
England.
Borulwaski. who at his talleSt was a
yard and three inches high, had Sis
ter whose head was just level with her
big brothers shoulders He was not
only Il handsome and courtly man, but
a scholar of repute. He lived in five
relgns and was laid to rest in Durham
In 1887 side by side with the Falstaff-
Ian Stephen Kemble.

ST. KluDA ISLAND,
The Natives Have Colds Only When

The Natives Have Colds Only When
Visited by Foreigners.
There are many places where it is
impossible to catch cold because there
is no cold to catch. There is St. Kilda,
that lonely rocky island which was
visited by DR.. johnson when he and
Boswell We're making their famous
tour of the Hebrides There are about
a hundred inhabitants on the island.
The coasts are SO preciptous that for
eight months in the year it is prac-
tically inaccessible. Several vessels
from the mainland call there during
the summer. And, strange to say,
whenever ship reaches the island
from the mainland every inhabitant,
even to the infants, is seized with a
cold. This fact has been known for
more than 200 years and was Of great
interest to DR.. Johnson, who was skep-
teal concerning it,
The question of this st. Kilda cold
long puzzled men, who never dreamed
that it was an infectious disease and
that without the possibility of infec-
ton it is impossible to catch it, no mat
ter what the exposure may be. That is
to say, it is due to micro organism,
and without the presence of this micro
organism the disease cannot be con-
tracted.-New York Herald.
