A paint is soon to be placed on the

The flaming arc light can be given
a great variety Of colors by varying
the material im~pregnating the carbon
electrodes. Yellow, pearl, white and
red carbons are now sold, calcium
salts yielding the yellow, strontium
the red OF pink and barium the white.
The yellow, usually preferred, gives
the highest efficiency, and white the
lowest, or just a little more light than
the open arc from pure carbon.
The most interesting and revolu.
tionary feature of the new centrifugal
pump Is in the fact that the power
is applied directly to the water, only
about, three per cent. being lost IN
journal, speed resistance and friction.
The pump will draw water at a speed
of forty revolutions per minute, and
its capacity increases in proportion
to the speed Of its revolutions.
A record with long distance direct
telegraphy has been achieved by the

understood that the advantages of
direct transmission will be extended

Make, Shoes Comfortable.

Is there any woman who has not
suffered with half shoes and pumps
that slip up and down on the heel?:
In spring the streets seem to be
crowded with humanity with panied
expressions on their faces, treadins
as though terra irma were a much
more fragile substance than 1t is.' A
relief, however, has at last been dis
covered by some wise person whom
necessity transformed into an inven-
tor.
Paste a piece of velvet inside the
heel of the shoe, Of course, with the
side of the nap toward the foot, and
this will effectually prevent any slip
ping or rubbing. It is very easy to
do, costs but a very few cents. and
any good liquid glue may be used, go
