Springs On Skates.

The absence OF springs on ice
skates has been more or less OF a
mystery. That they are needed is
an undisputed fact. as the skater has
no means of lessening the EARRING
naturally incident to the uneven sur
race OF the ice. A New York inven-
tor, noticing the total absence of
springs on ice skates, experimental
with them and found them desirable
in every way. The springs are placed
between the steel runner and the
plates for the reception of the toe
and the heel of the shoe. The ad-
dition of the springs also tends to
ease the feet while skating, besides
greatly adding to the enjoyment of
tho sport.

Vegetable Sponges.

About ten species of vegetable
sponges" are now cultivated in the
warmer parts of Africa and Asia, es-
pecially in Algeria. The fruit is edi-
bic before maturity, but on ripening
the~pulp separates from the fibrous
material, which then becomes an
excellent substitute for real sponge
for the toilet, bathroom and many
other purposes. The Algerian
sponges are in large demand in Paris.
