How Chinese Paint.

Nearly all the painting in the for
eign settlements and all in the Chin
csc cities is done by native workmen
with Chinese paint. The use OF Chin
csc material and labor is because OF
cheapness, although piece of work
never has finished appearance.
Most OF he work is done by the
painter taking bunch OF cotton
waste, which he saturates by dipping
In the paint pot and then rubbing II
over the surface to be painted. Even
II foreign brushes are furnished the
Chinese painter will not use them
He says he saves paint by his meth
cd and gets it more evenly distribute
ed over the surface. On exterior sur
faces the Chinese paint is not durable
but the coat is so small that the job
can be done two or three times 1o1
what one painting would cost in Amer
lea.

The Hard Losing Its Cunning.

We learn through a French paper
that we are in danger of losing the
use of our hands The assertion is
made by medical authority, and a
little reflection will lead us to pause
before scouting this theory. Our
hands in effect become less cunning
and adroit through our availing our
selves of every mechanical appliance
at our disposal. In times past women
were skillful embroiderers and work
ers Of lace, but the sewing machine
has deteriorated the work Of the
hands and fingers. because, in the
case Of the mercenary worker. 1t rem
ders better return for her labor.
BY degrees the hands become stub
born. and In time says the authority
before cited. there will be nothing for
the ten fingers to do.

Names in Electricity.

Electricity is the one branch of
science that honors the great names In
it's fundamental Technology. Two
years ago tablet was unveiled at
Ampere, N j., in honor of Andre
Marie Ampere, the French physicist
who first measured the current and
for whom the unit is named. The ohm
bears the name of George S. Ohm,
German man of science who discov-
cred the law on which the unit of
electrical resistance is based The
volt is named for the italian Volta,
the greatest electrical authority of the
eighteenth century, who was the first
man to construct rude electric bat
terry. A farad, the unit of electrical
capacity, is named in honor of the
English physicist. Faraday; the col
omb. the unit Of quantity, for the
French physicist Coulomb, and the
watt. the unit of power, for James
Watt. the Scotch inventor who i'm

Great Minds Not Exempt.

In Toistoy there seems to be the
same contradiction between the nat
ural man and the ascetic moralist that
pertains to lesser minds, and In GER
tain instance. cited by Aylmer Maude
in his Life of Tolstoy," this mental
elasticity makes for humor. When
Sarah Bernhard visited Moscow the
great man delivered himself of a
crushing condemnation of the cOntem-
porary theater and Of the falsfty Of
the dramatic art in general. After a
mono tous silence one Of his guests
admitted. somewhat timorously, that

tress that evening TOIstoy's face

mored smile. DO you know" he said,

Our Strange DISASTERS.

How extraordinary are our Amer
ican disasters. New York alone has
had q series of picturesque accidents
that is most remarkable. The great
Ere in the Hoboken docks when
mighty steamships drifted up and
down stream ablaze from stem to
tern: the dreadful Slocum holocaust,
and, more recently, the destructive ex-
plosion in the New York Central pow
er house, all have been unlike any
thing with which European cities are
familiar. Now the blowing up of a
scow of dynamite kills a score of peo-
pie and shakes the skyscrapers of
Manhattan on their earth-piercing
foundations. There is panic and con-
fusion through miles of city streets.
The damage is put at almost million
dollars In dramatic strangeness the
happenings in our cities stand alone.
Only the incredible Battle of Step
ney" which London recently offered
can be compared to them.

interested IN American system.

While visiting Vienna recently, the
ex-shah of Persia, Mahomet Ali. de
voted much time to the inspection OF
great business and manufacturing es-
adjustments, and on one of these
tours, made under the guidance of a
large mani iacturer, and with little
Prince Mahomet Mira, they were
joined at the Office of newspaper by
an American with whom the ex-mon-
arch entered into earnest conversation.
He was deeply interested in what the
American told him about commercial,
affairs in the United States, but what
interested him most, said one of the
party was "our election system. as to
which he made searching inquiry"

The Wind and the Weather

Weather depends on the direction
and movement of wind Warmth
comes from the sun, but wind is the
distributor of the warmth. Visiting
any place that is warmer than itself,
wind always takes some of the
warmth away with it. Visiting any
warns that place This implies. of
course, that wind moves. But what
makes it move? 1t moves by it's OWL
weight. Wind is simply drifting air,
and the drift is caused by the very
same power which draws a falling
stone toward the earth.

9 Maine Nature Takers.

Maine is a great sttae for nature
takers" The .Kennebec Journal puts
out the following: "Obed F. Stackpole
of Biddeford discovered on entering
his henhouse a few mornings ago that
a fine black hen of his flock had COM
mitted suicide. He found the hen
hanging suspended by her neck. and
her head slipped through a loop in a
cord, which was attached overhead in
the center of the coop. The cord which
figured in the event was one by means
of which Mr.. Stackpole had previously
suspended a cabbage just above the
floor and small loop was left in the
end to which the stump of the cab.

Kow Some Explocions Are,Caused.

hoW some E<piociohS NreSCduSeo.S
i; has been discovered that when the
atmosphere is just right, or possibly
just wrong, a man may start his own
explosion. The American Museum Of
Safety says that many persons are
able to throw off spark of electricity
on the principe Of static energy. A
metallic funnel or any piece of metal
in their hands will form an electrOde,
so that when the funnel comes in con-
tact with the opening of metal can
or tank containing benZine a spark is
caused. If the vapOr is in proper
condition or, in other words, if the
mixture of air and hydrocarbon gas
contains the right proportions of each
an explosion occurs. Of course, peo-
pie note that all such accidents can be
guarded against by providing the can
or tank with a fire screen or other
safety device similar TO those used in
mines for protection against gas igni-
ton.

The "clvil War;

adopted by the house of representa-

The action is not of much moment
one way or another. The American
public have dropped into the habit Of
calling the great struggle the Civil
war, and no one will seriously oppose
the new usage in congressional en-
actments. In fact, the change is in
its way significant of the better feel
