gentlemen as well lady visitors while

When She Made Her Reputation.
1t was in her drawing room in the even

ing and made her reputation as the most
brilliant conversationalist in Europe. One
of her visitors writes:
Nine. De Stael receives with grace and
without affectation. She leaves her COM
pany free all the morning. but they unite
in the evening. She then walks her salon,
holding in her hand a little green branch,
and her words have an ardor quite peculiar
to herself. At these times she produces the
effect of an improvisitrice."

.KAUMAZIT.

Kaumazit is the latest, 1t isn't sone-
thing good to eat to take the place Of
things we have become suspicious Of.
1t is a new fuel, and it is being made
near Dresden from Bohemian brown
coal The coal is kept twenty-four
hours in coke-oven retorts The finish
ed Kaumazit is removed from the base
of the retorts every three hours and is
cooled. The retort procedure first
evaporates the microscopic water in the
brown coal US and 20 per cent?, and
then causes the distillation of the heavy
HYDROCARBONS. The retorts are worked
under a partial vacuum. The gases OBJ
tained from the retorts are cooled and
scrubbed, and the purified gases are
used part to heat the retorts, part to
drive gas engines, and a surplus re-
mains for sale to the various industries
in the neighborhood. Kaumazit con-
talnS 1854 per cent. CdIpoHJ lf'S per
cent. ash, and LAT per cent. hydrogen,
with 4.20 per cent. microscopic water.
1t is graded In three sizes, and is sold
as fuel for suction gas-producers and
for boiler firing, while the finest size
is sold for the production of slow
burning briquettes Analysis proves
Kaumazit to be fuel poor in gas and
high in fixed carbon. 1t has a high
ignition temperature. Boier-firing
with this fuel therefore demands closed
a,shpits and blowers under the crate to
obtain the best results. With well de-
signed CRATES boiler efficiency of 72.2
per cent. has been obtained. The air
pressure is 50 regulated that when the
fre-doors are opened there is neither
air-indrawing nor flame emission.
In the trials carried out with this
fuel the excess air has only averaged
10 per cent. above that required by
theory for complete combustion Of the
fuel. Kaumazit is. further, a smoke
less fuel, and the cost in Dresden is so
regulated that in most industries it can
be employed so as to yield saving of
from to 10 per cent as compared
with ordinary coal.

what have you done for me?"
Toothpicks, sir" replied the very
humble servitor, with a gesture to-
ward those unsightly instruments.

tonished shoulder, why, bless you,
I shall never forget your bonny, bonny
face! -Harper's Bazaar.

ELECTRICITY AND THE SERVANT
PRORI IEM.

Newer applications of the electric
motor are now available for the house
hold which, perhaps, are not so general
ly known. Electric dishwasher can be
had, which relieve this necessary pro-
cess of all its drudgery. The electric
iron greatly lightens the labor of this
part of the work. Knife cleaners and
grinders can be had which are electro
cally driven by small motor in fact.
and household aplicance which requires
turning can be driven in the same way.
Yet this does not by any means cover
the comforts to be had from the use Of
this small servant, for many other US
es are being found for it which contri-
butte to the comfort of all. Electric hair
driers are now available for those who
need them, and electric vibrators for
those whose systems are benefited by
such stimulation. 1t will probably not
be long before electric sweepers can be
purchased, which will not only make
that labor easy but entirely prevent
stirring up of dust. In fact, electricity
bids fair to convert the home into a
palace Of luxury and assist nightly in
solving the servant problem.-F From the
Electrical Review.

There are honest men, even in these
days when it is the fashion to doubt
their existence. And there are honest
men in Wall street, a place which is
quite discredted just now. Edwin S.

On Saturday he mailed each of the
creditors check for the remaining so
per cent. of his claims, with interest at

A man who will pay such a debt as
that from which Mr.. Hooley was legal

those who have just received his hon
orable checks will be especially hopeful
for him. Mr.. Hooley is not a CRATER.

THE BUSHNELL MEMoRIAL

The good that men do is often in
tered with their bones, at least SO far
as any conspicuous memorial of it is
concerned. This certainly ought not to
be so when the good done has been of a
kind that warrants a public memorial.
OF such kind was the good done by
Cornelius Scranton Bushnell at a criti-
cal period in his countrys life. At
that time it needed just his sanguine
confidence, his power Of persuasion and
his hearty patriotism and good will to
convince the doubling and discouraged
naval experts at Washington that there
was enough in the Ericsson Monitor
idea to merit their approval and accept
ance. How, after days of earnest eff
fort, he succeeded in convincing them,
and what followed, has often been told,
and will be retold to-day, and often
thereafter, as the appropriate memorial
which is to be unveiled to-day calls the
noble story to mind.
New Haven is to be congratulated on
having had such citizen as Mr.. Bush
nell. She is also to be congratulated on
having such beautiful memorial of
him. He has added much to her fame
and stability. 1t is entirely fitting that
she should eonspicuously and lastingly
remember him.

an INTERESTING TEST.

Oregon rejoices in the initiative and
referendum, and many Of the people of
the State can say those blessed words
with some understanding Of what they
mean, and full appreciation Of Their
splendid sound. To be sure, Oregon
hasn't had the initiative and referendum
long, and 1t doesn't yet fully know
how it or they, is, or are, going to
work. There will be a good test In
the election next month. Then, besides
five constitutional amendments to be
voted on, having been initiated by the
people, there are various bills to be
adopted or rejected, bills that also have
been initiated by the people. Four of
the pending constitutional amend
ments and one of the bills We're ini-
tiated through the efforts of the Peo-
pies Power league of the State. Other
interests have initiated measures and
others still are trying to get the neces-
sary signatures to petitions. The Equal
Suffrage association has filed a petit
ton for a constitutional amendment
enfranchising women. The State grange
has initiated, by petition, a bill for law
providing for two corporation license
tax laws. The owners of toll roads have
filed an initiative petition providing for
the State purchase of toll roads at a
cost Of $4,000. Even the State Liquor
Dealers association has come Juggling
in a bill, by petition, proposing certain
notifications of the act of June, 1904,
which act was adopted by the people
by referendum votes and provides for
local option. The original act was in
itiated by the prohibitionists. Besides
all this, a petition was filed last spring
against one of the appropriation bills,
which must now he settled by the peo-
pie. All of these various measures will
be voted upon at the coming June cleo
tions.
1t will be interesting to see how all
this comes out. Many thoughtful re-
formers believe that the initiative and
referendum can be relied on to save
the world.
