.DEvS.D BY A EUSY FATHER
Electrical Apparatus That Saves Time
and Makes for Comfort IN
the Nursery.

An engineer in Chicago has had
some lively experiences in home life.
He married a lady graduate in medi-
cine, and later he found that when
his wife was ON her rounds the care
of the baby devolved upon him,
Finding this work interfering with
his own professional labors, the en-
gineer produced an apparatus for
rocking the cradle by electricity. He
had another switch connected with a
photograph, which as soon as the
cradle was set in motion played some
lullaby, a f%avorite of the little one,
and so sent him to sleep. The en-
gineer has also constructed an cleo
tric apparatus which gives the little
recipient its milk at intervals.

FIGHT ON MOSQUITOES.

Some of the cities of Florida are
almost entirely dependent on els
terms for water supply and it has
been realized lately that these tanks
must furnish a favorable place for
the propagation of mosquitoes. One
of the suggested means of conducting
warfare against the pest consisted Of
stocking these reservoirs with small
fish to feed on the mospito larvae.
This method has been tried in one
place and another in Florida, and
has proved successful in every case.
The fish eat the larvae greedily,
keeping the water clear Of them,
and live for years, even in tanks that
are covered, and their living place

RHEUMATIC FOLKS

Many rheumatic attacks are due to

of the kidneys is to remove all uric

INGENIOUS DEVICE.

When the members of the British
Institution of Electrical Engineers
paid a visit of inspection to north
ern Italy lately they were interested
in a device used to protect the over
head transmission lines Of an electric
traction system from lightning dis
charges. The device consists of jets
Of water, which form a permanent
"earth" at the Monbegno generating
station on the Valtellina line. The
electric resistance of the Jets was
said to be sufficient to prevent a seri-
GUS loss of current, while not too
great to enable them to serve for
protection against lightning.

EVIDENTLY FEARS M

Prince Ferdinand, who now styles
himself car Of Bulgaria, rules over
a turbulent and not easily governed
people. Continual watchfulness has
made him extremely nervous. Some
time ago he was out driving in Carls-
bad, and appeared to be deeply bur
led in thought. As his carriage was
turning a corner a street boy picked
up a paper bag that was lying in
the road, blew it up with his mouth
and exploded it with a loud report.
The prince started to his feet, gave a
terrified glance around, sprang from
the carriage and made off rapidly in
the direction Of his hotel.

dozen workmen are daily engaged,
and Turkish grown tobacco is raised
specially for the sultan's use. The
best crops in the country are marked
for his special benefit, and what is
not actually selected for making into
cigarettes must be destroyed. A
