A lady's hat which would no doubt
create as great a sensation today as it
did at the time of its first appearance
in 1852 was that worn by Blanche de
Bourbon. queen of CASTLE. wife of
Peter the Cruel 1t cost E35 and was
made in Paris. The hat itself was
composed of de chypre and relieved
with great pearls, garnets and enamel
work. Children, carved in the whitest
of ivory, were depicted picking acorns
of pearls from the oak and scattering
them TO the swine below. Birds were
singing in the trees, and at the foot
were bees stealing honey from the
flowers springing up from the verdure,

Fresh Air For Sleepinu,

A person requires twenty cubic
inches OF fresh air at each respiration,
or on an average of 400 per minute.
and in ten hours sleep he consumes
1870 cubic feet of air. The air Of a
bedroom ten feet square. having It's
doors and windows closed and occu-
pied by one person, would become un-
tit for respiration In four hours. In
the case of two occupants the time
would, of course. be reduced to two
hours.--New York American.

HIah ideals Should Be Guide.

In the adoption of profession or
trade another important fact not to be

selection will lead. Let high ideals
be your guide, lofty motives your am

To Extinguish Burning Fluids.

The new German method of fighting
fire in light liquids. like benzine or
gasoline. consists in covering the sur
face with layer of foam containing
an inert gas. thus cutting off the air
and making combustion impossible.
The approved apparatus made by a
Prussian company consists of simple
metal cylinder divided into two cham
bers and provided with long spout.
One chamber is charged with an aque-
GUS solution of potash, alum and So
dunn sulphate, the other with solu-
ton of sodium bicarbonate. sodium
sulphate and liQuorice root extract AS
the two cylinders are inclined or re-
versed the two solutions mix as they
issue from the spout. and the chem
ical reaction between the alum and
bicarbonate gives prompt evolution
Of carbon dioxide. converting the liq-
uorice solution into an exceedingly
stiff and persistent foam. Even when
the burning liquid has become so hot
that its fiery vapor bubbles up through
the foam the carbon dioxide rapidly

at the back end. and the weight of the
leg is partly balanced by the weight at
the back, connected by means of paral-
lei bars and lever.
In actual pra ctice the full weight of
the elevator leg is not absolutely bal
anced. there being Il certain excess al
lowed ON the elevator end for sinking
the leg into the grain. This excess i'll
the ordinary way would produce list
or alteration of the trim of the pom
tOOn, and so in order to cOunteract
this a weight is fixed under the turn
table at certain distance aft Of the
center line and of such proportions
that the amount of the weight multi
piled by that distance is equal to the
excess moment of the other side. AS a
result the horizontal balance remains
constant and perfect and will not pro-
duce any list so long as the cantalever
jib remains horizontal. When the jib
is raised or lowered out of the hOri-
zontal, however, it will be apparent
that there is very slight alteration
of moments. which. however. is not
sufficient to produce any perceptible
alteration of trim in the pOntOon.
The grain is discharged from the
elevator head by means of suitable ad
Unstable chutes on to an endless con-
veyOr band carried on the inside Of
the jib. This band is of canvas. with
rubber on one side. and Is provided
with diagonal ribs on the face to ia
cilitate the grain running uphill when
the jib is lowered into its lowest posi-
ton. These ribs are placed diagOnally
to permit them to run freely over the
supporting rolls. which carry the slack
side Of the belt. At the top OF the post
this belt discharges into a second re-
ceiver. which. by means of the long
telescope chute shown. discharges into
the boot of a second elevator which Is
placed on the deck. which. in turn.
raises the grain and empties it into the
weigh house or hopper. from which it
is delivered to lighters alongside.
