Tempered Gold and Silver.

Scientific American.
 A process of tempeTing gold. silver and copper has been discovered by z, F. Vaughn of Los Angeles. Cal. By his method it is claimed that the duc- tile metals are not only hardened. but cutting edge is obtained, keener and more durable than that of steel, be- cause of the microscopic fineness and smoothness imparted to it.
 The inventors experiments were de- voted chiefly to the manufacture of
 surgical instruments of gold, his first production being a hypOdermic needle of solid tempered gold. For surgical purposes, the inventor cla inns that in-
 struments o' tempered gold are supe-
 rior tC those of steel, because of their non -corrosiVeness and the ease with which they may be steriliZed.
 The antitoxin needle is about two
 inches long, and the needle for spinal anesthesia is about three inches long. There Is no clogging; consequently 1t i is not necessary to use wire. The nee dies are easy of introduction, the larg- est sibe passing through the tissue | more readily than the smallest steel
 needle As the needle Is entirely asep- | tic, 1t leaves no mark. All wearing 1 surfaces are solid gold and may be either 24-carat or any degree of alloy. | The secret of the process appears to
 be in the solution used in tempering. The inventor states that tempered l copper is not subject 70 that crystali- l zation through vibration which limits | the life of steel; that springs of tenn pered copper have not only as great
 elasticity and strength as steel springs 1 but that owing to the extreme slow.

they will retain the spring temper for a practically indefinite period. It is expected that a most extensive use of tempered copper will be made for journal bearings. Owing to the great density of the metal it take a perfect polish with use and makes an almost frictionless bearing. free from dan ger of overheating, and outlasting eitheS Babhjtt metal or brass for the purpose.

SOME NEW STYLES
 IN INFERIOR DEC ORATION

the palest walls. the most delicate of designs and the snowiest white wood work and ceilings.
 There are any number of rooms be- ing papered in cream satin stripe, and some even have pure white walls in a moire ar silk effect.
 Perhaps one of the most striking ways of decorating bedroom con sists in having a satin stripe pure white paper. headed by a cut out de- sign of pink or pale yellow roses.
 Speaking of the treatment of walls, by the way. borders have gone out of fashion completely. The ceiling is painted pure white. and the white eff. feet is continued down the walls to a depth of eighteen inches. where it meets the picture holding. Any fanci- full cut out design may be usel below this.
 You have no idea how very effective this is. It makes the room look large and airy.
 Some people buy the old fashioned borders or friezes and cut them out either to make panels or to decorate in floral effect. That seems a very good idea to me.
 The English are responsible for our reversion of pale coiors. They are very fond of art cretonnes. and these can on 1y be used with the lightest of wood work and mural decorations. So there 'yolf are.
 When I was in London saw a charming room. which was almost en- tireIy white It had deep wainstcoted effect, white satin stripe paper and a cream oriental rug faintly decorated in pale green. The effect was summing.
 The dining room, which led from this, was also treated with white wood work and wainscoting, and what was left of the walls was covered with very light tapestry consisting pr punches Of roses on cream ground

It Is a melancholy fact that some women are shrewder than their hus- bands in business matters.
 Melancholy, but true, my friends! Whether this arises from the fact that men are naturally more easy going in small things I don't know, but for close bargaining in small matters give me the woman every time.
 Listen to this, for instance:
 John Jones bought for his wife last summer a horse for $50 and a car riage for $25-just for 'acation use. you understand. At the end of the summer he intended to sell them for about half what they cost him, even that arrangement being cheaper than hiring horse for three months.
 But this tdea was positively repel- lant to the astute Mrs. Jones.
 She drove a sharp bargain with man. at the end of which ne agreed to buy the horse and wagon Tor $225.
 Notice the profit tfter the beast had been used all summer md admire oh my friends.
 But when the prospective purchaser reached home he thought over the situation, and, knowing human na- ture. he sent to the husband a check for s2OO for the horse and wagon.
 Rather than force him to disgorge inc remaining $25. and knowing full well his wtfe would send back the check for the insufficient amount he actually made up the difference out Of his own pocket and presented the proper sum to the triumphant lady that evening. he simply furious.

Really. my head is full of interior decorating--this being the time of the year peculiar to such things.
 I have just seen an old white Kitchen. by the way, and I'm crazy over 1t.
 Don't imagine this is an extrava- gance. It is much easier to touch up white walls than colored ones, and they can be scrubbed with even bet ter success.
 The kitchen I have in mind was an old one which an idiotic former ten ant had painted a serviceable (?) pal@ brown.
 It gave one the blues.
 It was painted, under the new re- gime, white from top to bottom. The floor was treated to a covering of blue and white oilcloth. The kitchen table was covered with the same. On the walls were rows of I7htte enamel ed Eaucepans The kitchen towels were of coarse weave, with all blue borders and on the shelves (also covered with blue and white oilcloth) stood an ar ray of cheap kitchen blue and whit 3 China& purchased at the Japanese store.
