A CHEMICAL TRICK.
Changing - white Pasteboard Cat
Into Striped Tiger.


When we happen to witness a
phenomenon which seems to violate
natural laws we are not likely to for
sot Its 1susc IL 1t be explained to us.
Tho following experiment, which l de-
vised for my students. helped them TO
understand as well as to remember
some chemical data:
\ white cat, made of flexible paste
board and Imprisoned I'm II glass jar
Is shown to the audience. The lecturer
announces that without opening the
jar or even touching it lie will cause
the cat to undergo geological as wei!
as chemical "lnSformati0n. He
ta!irs tho support OF the jar and pushes
1t forward in full view Of the students.
The chang. occurs almost instanta-
nco',sly. To eat takes Il rich orange
color on which black transversa!
:;::!H"; rapidly pant themselves. The
cat has become tiger.
t. w.l0,c tran formation is pro
GIcCl by c::!:.:!:;i0nS OF hydrogen sui
philc. witch is generated in the jar
itsclS without any visible apparatus.
The cat las been previously coated
with ISOLATION of chloride of antimony
wherever the orange hue waS To br
produced and with solution of basic
acetate of lead wherever the black
stripes were to appear. Both solutions
are Colpr,rSS. After the coated cat
has been introduced in his glass cage
Il small piece OF pIStcboard is placed
under the wooden support SO as slight
ly to incline the Jar forward. A few
dccigrams Of pulverlzcd sulphide of
iron folded in n piece of blotting paper
are deposited behind the cat on the
elevated side Of the bottom Of the jar.
Two or three cubic centimeterS of di-
luted sulphuric acid are dropped with
u pipette OH the opposite side. When
the performer wishes the trnnsforma-
tion to take place he takes the wooden
support and pushes it forward as If he
wanted everybody to see better what
is going to happen. BY so doing he
suppresses the slight inclination which
kept the iron sulphide beyond the reach
OF the sulphuric acid The gas is
evolved, and the formation OF the
orange sulphde OF antimony and black
sulphde of lead takes place in n few
seconds.-G. Michaud IN Scientific

The Story of q Medicine.

It's name-~Golden Medical Discovery
was suggested by one Of its most import
ant and valuable ingredients - Golden
Seal root.
Nearly forty years ago, DR.. Pierce dis
covered that he could, by the use of pure,
triple-rcfined glycerine, aided by a GER
tain degree of constantly maintained
heat and with the aid OF apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex-
tract from our most valuable native me-
dicnal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use OF alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world
famed Golden Medical Discovery" for
the cure of weak stomach indigcStion or
dyspepsia. torpid liver, or biliousneSS and
kindred arrangements was first made. as
1T ever since has been, without particle
of alcohol in its makeup.
A glance at the full list of it's ingredi-
entS, printed on every bOttle-wrappcr.
will show that it is made from the most
valuable medicinal roots found growing
in our American forests. All these in
gradients have received the strongest en-
dorscmcnt from the leading medical cX-
pertS, teachers and writer's on MuteriG
Medicn who recommend them as the very
best remedies for the diseases for which
"GOlden Medical Discovery is advised.
a little book of these endorsements has
been compiled by DIR. r. V. Pierce, of
Buffalo. n. Y. and will be mailed free to
any one asking same by postal card, or
letter addressed TO the Doctor as above.
From these endorsements, copied from
standard medical books of all the differ
ent schools of practice, it will be found
that the ingredients composing the "Gold-
en- Medical Discovery" are advised not
only for the cure of the above mentioned
diseases, but also for the cure of all ca
tarrhal, bronchial and throat affections,
accompanied with catarrhal discharges,
hOarseneSs, sore throat, lingering, or
hang-on- coughs, and all those wasting
affections which, II not promptly and
in consumption. Take DR.. Pierce's Dis
covcry in time and pcrsevcrc in its use
until you give it a fair trial and it is not
likely to disappont. Too much must not
be expected OF It, 1t will not perform
miracles. 1t will not cure consumption
in its advanced stages. No medicine will.
1t WiU cure the affections that lead up to
consumption, If taken In time.

why the Dollar of 1904 IL Rare.

Why the DOllnr OF 1SOf Is RRre.
There are two stories regarding the
rarity OF the silver dollar Of 1904, the
most generally accepted one being the
one which accounts for the scarcity by
saying that they were sent to Africa to
pay the soldiers engaged in war be-
tween this country and Tripoli. There
were only 1880 Of them coined. An
other version of the story which ac-
counts for their rarity is that Il vessel
bound to China with almost the entire
mintage Of that year was lost. The
former story appears to be the most
likely explanation.

window, the palms, ferns, and ported
plants formed natural altar while the
soft light from the silver candelabra
addeded to the beauty and solemity of
the occasion.
While the guests were arriving, Miss
