CARUso's SUCCESS IN EUROPE

CARUSO'S SUCCESS IN EUROPE
Caruso's rather trying experiences
last April, in San Francisco, where
the great tenor was obliged to sleep
two nights in the open air, did not
have any bad effects on his glorious
voice, as his success in the London
opera was greater than ever. He
there appeared in several new roles

Viva was a mystery to the whole

rest and recuperate after their win

but a few days when Viva March
we'll appeared among them. Who she
was, from whence she came, none

The men loved her. Richard
Howe's artist.soul blossomed out
suddenly in the passion flower of love
after one glance from those haunting
eyes. And Carl Neville, poet and
dreamer was fostering a passion toe
mighty for that frail frame. Nor art

AN ODDITY AMONG NAILS.
It's Use Turned Out to he Different
From What Expected.

A man who had often seen on the
side OF building that he passes In
his rounds down town sign reading
Cement Coatel Nails" and who had
wondered what cement coated nails
could be used for and made up his
mind that they must be for use in
wharf building or something like
that, under water, where the cement
on them would protect them against
rust, learnol upon inquiry that the
cement on the nails did indeed have
protective purpose; but this pur-
pose turned out TO be one quite diff
erent from that which he had I'M
agined. says the New York Sun.
For the coating on cement coated
nails Is designed not to protect the
nails themselves, but the goods In
the boxes In which the nails may be
driven: and this In manner that
to the man Of inquiring mind seemed
quite novel and remarkable.
The cement coated nail is a wire
nail. In these days there are moro
wire nails used than cut nails. be-
cause wire nails are cheaper; they
cost about the same by weight, but
there are more wire nails to the
pound, and 80 wire nails have come
into widespread common use for
many purposes, one Of them being
found In the mailing together ot
many sorts Of boxes.
A wire nail can be drawn more
easily than a cut nail and SO with
less likelihood of injury to the box.
and this might seem only another
recommendation OF the wire nail IN
such use. as It reasonably might be
II one Of the chief considerations
were the preservation Of the box;
but the primary consideration is, Of
course, the protection of the box's
contents. and here Is where the ce-
ment coated nail. comes in, and in
the manner that seemed novel and
remarkable.
With time and the opportunity tho
cover Of a light box wire nailed
could be lifted and replaced and tho
nails redriven without showing any
marks on the box. and thus there
was the possibility Of the abstraction
Of goods from such boxes In tran
sit For instance, pair of shoes
might be taken out Of a shoe case,
and the cover put back without
showing any signs of tampering.
And with this requirement for 1t
along comes the inventor of the ce-
ment coated nail. which is simply n
wire nail covered with a very thin
coating of material that makes the
nail. once driven. stick so tightly
that not only does 1t hold more
securely but 1t can't be drawn with
out marring or breaking the box.

Poppies from Ancient Seeds.


The extraordinary resuscitating
power of light received q curious H.
iustration a few years ago In the sill
YER mines of Layrium. The mines
we're abandoned more than 1000
years ago as unavoidable and were
'filled for the most part with the Stag
from the workings of the miners.
1t was discovered that this Stag
contained plenty of silver. which
could be easily rendered available by
modern appliances. Accordingly 1t
was removed to the furnace, and
when next the mine was visited q
wonderful transformation was found
to have taken place.
Instead of heap OF rubbish. the
mine had become a gorgeous hower
garden. The entire space was COW
cred with brilliant show OF pop
pies. This profuse vegetable life be-
ionged to the same age in which the
mines were worked. Twenty CEN
turies old were those poppy-seeds,
yet when the removal of the Stag al
lowed the light to fall upon them
they sprang into life and bloom un-
der its influence.
