Asbestos H., Many Uses.

Asbestos Is the most important Gre
proo]ng material known. Its 6brous
structure adapts 1t to wide range Of
applications-from woven fabrics. such
a. theater curtains and articles of
clothing to asbestos shingles, stucco
plaster, asbestos wood and various
other forms Of building material that
render structures thoroughly 6reproof
Its lighmess, strength, durability and
insulating properties against heat and
electricity give it special advantages
for use in constructing cars and cleo
trio motor subways. The most common
uses of asbestos are for asbestos pa.
per, millboard, pipe covering and lag
ging to inclose heat pipes. furnaces
and locomotives In order to prevent
loss Of heat In transmission. As a
nonconductor Of heat it may be used
not only In the preparation Of fireproof
safes and vaults. but also for cold
storage and cooling structures. Houses
made Of asbestos materials or coated
with asbestos throughout are not emily
warmer In winter, but cooler in sum-
mer.

Few people know what dangers Turk
In excessive laughter. When we laugh
our regular breathing is changed, COM
Ing in quick, short respirations because
the throat muscles are contracted. 1t
ls for this reason that, when laughing
very heartily at some good Joke, we
have often to gasp for breath. At
times we are obliged to hold our sides
on account of the pain hearty laugh
causes us, owing to the partial suffosa-
ton of the lungs through the cutting
of of their proper air supply. Every
muscle in the body becomes contracted
during a continued 1T of laughter.
Often the blood vessels in the face be.
come congested, causing it to turn red
and even purple. Should this conges-
ton continue for any length of time
apoplexy resulting in death might well
occur 1t Is better in these circum-
stances to laugh until we cry, for the
shedding Of tears relieves the conges-
ton of the brain. Tears caused by
grief d. good In the same way, and
that Is how, after great sorrow, many
people have been saved from brain
congestion and madness by the timely
shedding Of few tears.-London Tit.

that among jewels the opal alone de-

Tho Art Of Economy.

An economy. whether Of state,
households or individuals, may be de-
fined to be the art Of managing labor.
- Now, we have warped the
word Economy" in our English Ian
guage into a meaning which 1t has no
business whatever to bear. In our
use Of it it constantly signifies merely
sparing or saving-economy Of money
means saving money: economy of
time, sparing time. and so on. But
that is wholly barbarous use of the
word-barbarous in double sense, for
it is not English, and it is bad Greek;
barbarous in a treble sense, for it is
not English, it is bad Greek, and it
Is worse sense. Economy no more
means saving money than 1t means
spending money. 1t means the ad-
ministration of a house, its steward.
ship, spending or saving-that Is,
whether money or time or anything
else to the best possible advantage

HANGED by the preservation in the
Franklin institute of the model Of
the remarkable motor that Keely built
to deceive intending investors and en-
rich its inventor until the fraud was
exposed after Keely's death.
For twenty five years Keely astound-
ed eminent scientists of Europe and
America with the machine that he
claimed had solved the secret Of per-
petual motion. The inventor Of this
machine would start his device going.
apparently. by playing tune on a
mouth organ He convinced many
clever men that he told the truth. and
stock In the new concern sold freely.
To the day of his death Keely de-
clared that his discovery was gen.
uine one. and it was only when the
house in which the machine was
placed was thoroughly overhauled that
the colossal fraud was discovered
| Keely had wired the walls Of the
building. He ran his machine by high
pressure hydraulic power When the
wires attached to the machine were
the subject of investigation Keely
would file them to show that they
were solid and could not be used for
any purpose other than that for which
they were attached.
Pieces of wire thus 6led are to be
seen at the Franklin institute The
broken pieces show that the wires
were hollow and that the inventor of
the wonderful motor carefully stopped
his fling short Of perforating the cen
ter, which would have exposed the
fraud.-Scientifc American.

ENERGY OF RAoIuM.
Ono Ton Of It Would Equal In Power
100000 Tons of Coal.

100000 Tons Of Coal.
If one could utilize the energy of a
ton Of radium through a space Of thir-
ty years it would be sufficient to drive
a ship of $1,000 tons, with engines of
$1,000 horsepower. at a rate Of fifteen
knots throughout the whole thirty
years. To do this 1900 900 tons of coal
are actually required, says the Chicago
Tribune
These are not fanciful figures, for the
energy is there, though. as a matter Of
fact, 1t is unlikely that man will ever
produce much more than half an
ounce Of radium a year.
Still. the fact is important for this
reason-that science Is convinced that
the radium in radium bromide Is not
the only element which possesses this
marvellous store Of energy, but that the
calcium in gypsum and the sodium In
common salt contain also this energy
content.
The evidence of the wonderful atomic
energies in the common elements Of
everyday material Is rapidly accumu.
lating, and scientists are Of the opinion
that perhaps these same discoveries
may in time alter the whole future of
the human race.

FORMATION OF COAL.
Conditions on Our Planet While the
Process Developed.

Conditions on Our Planet While the
Process Developed.
What may be said to be the stran-
gest period through which our earth
has passed Is the one that was respon-
sible for the formation of coal. The
planet is described as having been at
that time fat and smooth as to surface
and peculiar as to vegetation. The
continents were Just beginning to rise
above the ocean and the land had not
yet become dry Mountain ranges had
not arisen from the swamps. and the
atmosphere was thick with fog. In this
state of affairs there sprouted and
fourished the plants which were later
to furnish the world with its coal sup.
ply.
These plants grew as big as our lar
gest trees, taking deep root in the mo-
rass and dourishing like the lush
grasses in moist meadow land and de-
veloped into the strange shapes now
found in tropic vegetation. The forest
looked. the scientists assure us. like
dense growths Of weeds, rushes and
enormous ferns. Some Of them grew
in the shape Of cacti, having spines all
over them This kind of vegetation
was very rich in carbon, which it de
rived from the warm. moist atmos
phere. Then the millions of years roll
ed by, the forests Of giant weeds were
buried by deposits Of earthly material
and the chemical change took place
which slowly changed them into coal
This process ceased with the carbon
ferrous age, so that when the present
supply of coal is dug out Of the ground
there will be no more Exchange.
