Public Eault-Eindinu.

The ability to point out with dis
agreeable clearness social evils and
public perils is not alone enough to en-
title justly man to any great amount
of public esteem. Cassandras in
breaches or petticoats are Of no more
real service today than in the heroic
age, and the miracle about the lady
herself was no SO much that the Greeks
paid no attention to her forebodings
and warnings, but that some impa-
tient hero who had work to do did not
wiring her dismal neck.
There has never been a time when
our country has needed to have ideals
of service made more fresh and attrac-
tiv. or when the real work OF the
world, Done by its sane. healthy and
kind-hearted workers, needed greater
recognition. 1t is the good rather nan
the bad in us which needs encourage
ment and exposure. and II 1t once Lnds
work to do, the bad IN us will be far
less noticeable or troublesome. II is a
poor gardener who devotes too much
time to the weeds at the expense OF
the vegetables and flowers-Atlantic
Monthly.

O soft iron object, such as nail, a
bolt or rod, that object becomes a
magnet as long as a current of electric
ity is passing through the coils Of wire

of spiral spring has stronger field
than straight wire carrying the same
current, for each turn or convolution
adds its magnetic field to that Of the
other turns; and by having the center
of the coil of iron, which is a magnetic
body. the strength of the magnetism is
greatly Increased.-St Nicholas.

WHEN HEAT IS CONFINED.
Experiments Prove Electric Lamps
often Cause Fires.

Incandescent electric lights have
caused many fires because the heat
generated by them becomes intense
when confined. They are, therefore.
dangerous in those coal mines where
they have displaced other forms of
lamps. A writer says: Among min
ers, where the underground workings
are lighted by electric incandescent
lamps, there is often a tendency to be
careless in the handling of the lamps.
As the light is not n ked it is consid-
cred that the lamps may be laid down
anywhere without fear or danger.
Some experiments that have been car
ried out in England, however, prove
the fallacy of this contention and show
that an incandescent electric lamp Is
equally as dangerous if not properly
handled as naked light.
Investigations of H. Hall. one of
the British government inspectors of
coal mines, showed hat when a 16-
candle power lamp was covered with
coal dust the generation of heat was
so rapid that within four minutes a
temperature of 450 degrees Fahrenheit
was attained and the bulb burst. His
investigations also showed that when
the heat had risen to a certain point
evidences of spontaneous combustion
developed and, although the lamp was
then removed from the coal, heat. gen
Grafton still continued and finally the
coal burst into fame.

Where orasshoppers Are Popular.

There is a regular business in Italy
of making little wire cages for grass
hoppers. The insect is regarded AZ
lucky and if one can be kept alive in
the cage for month it Is believed the
year will be prosperous, The supersti-
ton arose from this incident: A car
cinal OF the Medici family invited q
bishop to dine with him In his garden.
The cardinal handed the bishop glass
of wine. A grasshopper fell from q
tree into the wine and the bishop did
not drink it The wine was afterward
found to have been poisoned.

you have heard about people

as well, display the soles of their
boots at the sides of their chairs by
leaving the heels at an angle that
was TOO conspicuous to be overlook

any effect that dainty lingerie might
otherwise produce.
Men are worse in this display
than women. AZ soon as the average
man takes his seat at a table he in
voluntarily tries to get his boots to-
gether by twisting his legs around be-
hind his chair. In all the matter l
have read about how to be graceful
have never yet seen a rule suggested
for the proper way TO rest the feet
while sitting in public.
Look about you whenever you 90
out. Even in street cars, surface,
subway or elevated. you will see we'll
gowned women and men. who In 9TH
er respects appear to know how to
hold themselves together, displaying
their footgear In the most slovenly
manner. Men and women Of the bet
ter class are particular about having
good Ats in boots and in having the
same kept properly cleaned. but they
seem to forget that. no matter how
well shod they may be. 1t Is neces-
sary to know how to place their
