Gasoline Engines For Navy.

The Navy Department is taking up
the subject of gasolene engines as a
possible means of improving the pro-
pulsion machinery of naval craft.
Some extensive experiments recently
made by the Government show that
with a gas producer and gas engine
1t is possible to increase the horse
power of a naval ship to a prodigious
degree. OF course, it is another mat
ter to get the machinery which will
do this on board of a battleship. For
the present the practical experiments
will be confined to launches and the
smallest vessels of war. Perhaps in
the course of the next fifty years, say
the naval engineers, something will
be done toward the increase Of horse
power by the employment of the gas
producer and the gas engine, but the
development Of appliances which will
serve the purpose on board the bat
tleship is still a long way off. The
naval experiments, however, demon
strate that something some day will
be done in that direction.

NOW PINEAPPLE CLOTH.
Not Alone Valued as a Fruit Is This
Exotic.

One day recently, while on a shop
ping tour, some very beautiful silky
looking material was admired very
much by one of the shoppers, who was
informed by the saleswoman that the
material was "Pina Cloth" She had
a very beautiful gown made of it.
Upon investigation it transpired that
"Pina Cloth" was made from the a.
bers of the leaves of the pineapple.
In Manila, girls and women are ar.
rayed in this material IN special occa.
sions, and 1t is said that their wedding
are often made. of it.
Many species of the pineapple leaves
yield fiber that a be spun like fax
when bleached. A very fine muslin
can be made of it and the very finest
handkerchiefs. In some parts of Mex
leo, China and Africa. the fbers are
used for cloth, cordage, fishing nets
and ropes.
In the West Indies a sort OF liquor
is made from the juice. This is call
ed pineapple rum, and another de-
coction is used as a medicine for fe-
vers.
From experience it is known that
the juice of the pineapple is an ex.
| cellent remedy for sore, throat, and 1t
has even been used in cases of diph.
iberia.
One way of serving the fruit on the
table for dessert is to cut it up hne
with a cole-slaw cutter and sugar it
freely. 1t. is more appetizing than
when merely sliced, as sometimes,
when in slices, it is very tough. Some
fine specimens of ~pine-apples have
| been grown in Horticultural Hall and
in the Botanical Gardens Of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania.
Pine-apples are sent to us in large
quantities from the West Indies. In
| former times, when transportation was
slower than it is now, the fruit was
looked upon as a great luxury. In
most of the markets last week the
most luscious pine-apples were dis
| played at very reasonable prices and
could be purchased by the poor. A
| great many come from Florida. The
plants are raised there under sheds to
| guard against frost. They are also
grown in Hawaii and the Pacific Is
lands, in India, tropical Africa, and
large quantities in Mexico.

wines and manners change. .

Times and change. The
customs Of London, ancient and mod
ern, greatly differ. Says "The Lon
don Times" regarding medieval
days: Dancing was a passion with
everybody. From the Queen to the
milkmaid, all the women danced;
from the King to the craftsman, all
of the young men danced. They dane
ed in the streets whenever it was pos
sible, which was one Of the reasons
why May Day was SO joyous a festi.
val. The more courtly people had
dances dignified and stately, such
as the Danse au Virlet, in which each
performer sang a verse, and then
they all danced around, singing the
same verse in chorus; the Pas d.
Brahant, where every man knelt I'd
his partner; the Danse au Chapelet
where every man kissed his partner;
they danced together, singing min.
strel's songs; they danced in the gar
den, they danced in the meadow. they
went out at night to dance, with ia,

beautiful music played by an orches.

RIGHT HOME
Doctor Recommends Postum From
Personal Test.

No one is better able to realize
the injurious action of caffeine-the
drug in coffee-on the heart, than the
doctor.
When the doctor himself has been
relieved by simply leaving off coffee
and using Postum, he can refer with
full conviction to his W case.
A Mo. physician prescribes Postum
for many of his patients because he
was benefited by it. He says:

A Fellow Feeling.

Here is an anecdote by q con-
tributor to the Atlantic.
1t was early in autumn, and was
going through a city street, carrying
a large and beautifully colored branch
of leaves. A small, dirty street boy
stopped me with
"Oh, give me one" The look on
the little chaps face was unmistakaly
appreciative.
I picked out the very smallest leaf,
feeling exceedingly shabby all the
time, and gave it to the boy.

I said.
"Never mind" replied the little fell
low, in a big, masculine sort OF a way.

In his speech at the Royal Acade'
my's annual banquet Mr.. Kipling said
that every writer has hope, or has had
hope, that through him a miracle with
words would be wrought. And why
not? If a tinker in Bedford gaol, If a
pamphleteering shopkeeper, pilloried
in London, if a muzzy Scotsman, If a
despised German Jew, or a condemn.
ed French thief, or an English 'Ad-
miralty official with a taste for let
tiers can be miraculously afflicted with
the magic of the necessary words,
why not any mar at any timer" So
Mr.. Kipling. Now, then, young ladies
and gentlemen, let US see how much
you know about the famous writer's.
The tinker is easy, but who were the
pamphleteering shopkeeper, the muzzy
Scotsman, and the rest?

An Estate Where Dickens Laid One
of His Famous Scenes.

Many interesting associations are
linked with the Grove Hall estate at
Bow, which is to come under h uc-
tioneer's hammer to-day. 1t was
here that Charles Dickens laid a
scheme of the amusing love making
episodes between Mrs. Nicholas Mic
kIeby and the gentleman belonging
to the house next door," Here stood
the "little cottage at Bow" and tae
quaint old garden in which Mrs.
Nickleby end ner daughter Kate re-
ceived the love offerings of vegetable
marrows, cucumbers and onions is
still in existence.
Until recently the estate was n
site of the Byas' private lunat asy-
lum. Just off the Bow road b
high road to Chigwell, with which the
novelist was well northumberland
about. three or four hundred yards
down Fairfield road the visitor comes
to a large high brick wall. Passing
through the narrow porter's lodge,
he at once steps into an Old World
garden of quaint and singular beau
ty. In front of him stretches a long
avenue of plane trees, and away in
the distance are vistas of winding
paths and -leafy lanes.
It is. a strange, spot; situated in the
heart of Londoh's East End, a spot
which few would expect to find in this
busy district At the end of the ave-
nue. and away to the left lies the old
time garden in which the eccentric
LADY, and her still more eccentric
lover communed in the days of long
ago. The old wall, thickly covered
With ivy and creepers, over which
the gentleman from next door" con-
versed with Mrs. Nichleby, is still
there, much worn with age. In the
centre of the garden is a large patch
tf e~vergreens and m~arigolds, while
sweet smelling jasmine perfumes the
air with it's fragrance. One a east
ly reconstruct the love scene in this
old fashioned corner and see in mag
nation the lady demurely rejecting
the proposals of the mailman from
next door"
The little cottage has long since
been demolished, and on it's site now
stand the remains of a laundry. But
the landmarks are still left, and it
will be a pity if these old associations
are allowed to be obliterated by the
march of the builder. 1t is a delight
full sylvan retreat, and the many low
ers of Dickens will hope that the
suggestion of the Dickens Fellow
ship that the authorities should Sc
cure the place as a public recreation
ground will be acted upon. The es-
tate, which Is still surrounded by the
high wall of Byas' private lunatic
asylum, comprises close upon a dozen
acres &C beautifully wooded land.
Such a spot would make an ideal
recreation ground.
The asylum itself was closed early
l. the present year, end the build
ings, with the exception of one or
two at the extreme left of the
grounds, have been pulled down.
