Fire Damp Indicator.

A new fire damp indicator was recently demonstrated in London. The device is adapted to indicate the presence of fire damp in coal mines It Is based on the well-known princi- pie of catalytic combustion resulting from placing platinum black in certain explosive gases. The device is in the shape of a torch with two differ ent thermo-electric couples connected in series with a sensitive galvanome- ter. Each thermo-couple is embedded in a bead of porous material, one of which beads is impregnated with plati- mum black so that in the presence of fire damp it will become heated above the other, and generate a thermo-elec- trio current, which will defect the gal vanometer. In order to make the platinum black as sensitive as possi- ble, each bead is heated by resist ance coll to the required temperature. AS both of the beads are heated alike, there Is no deflection of the galvanom- eter under normal conditions.

JUST CALLED HIS ATTENTION
Case of the Absent-minded Poker Play CT Who Had Forgotten" to
 Ante.

The Missouri gentlemen. so gay, so genial, at the dinner table, take on a frigid look when the cards and chips appear They turn from gentle. kind ly human beings into relentless, rav- ening wolves, each intent upon the thought of devouring the other. And when, over a poker game, some player seems to enter into pleasant con- versation, the other players know that even that is a bluff-a blind to cover up some diabolic plot.
 Once during the game, for instance. Colonel Hawkins started in to tell me something of his history. And l. bland simpleton, believed We were convers- ing sans ulterior motive.
 'I used to be in politics." he said Then I was in the banking business But I've gone back to farming now. because it is the only honest busi. ness in the world. In fact"
 But at that juncture the steely voices of half the other players at the table interrupted.
 "Ante." they cried. "An.e, farmer!

HOW AND WHY TO
 CARE FOR THE TEETH

The Principal of the Public Schools offered prizes in some of the grades for the best compositions on "How and Why To Care For The Teeth"
 We print below the winning compo- sition in the 9th grade, just as it was written:
 "The greater part of the tooth is composed of dentine and phosphate It is covered with enamel. We have sixteen baby teeth and thirty-two permanent ones. We do not shed our baby teeth until we are five or six years old. After our baby teeth shed, our permanent teeth come. And af ter they come We have no more.
 "If we do not take care of the teeth when we are small we will have bad teeth when we are grown. If there is any decayed substance in the baby tooth when the permanent ones come in it's place it will come in decayed Bad teeth cause bad health, bad eyes and bad breath.
 "We should wash our teeth with Colgates Tooth Paste. Wash them every morning when you first get up. And every night before we go to bed. We should wash our teeth strait up and down to get the food from be- tween them"

DISEASE AND POVERTY

The normal person will not sink in- ,o noverty. Illness, disease, deformi- .v and weak-mindness are subnormal David Starr Jordan says: "Strong men seek education and make oppor-' tmitv" and to this might sbe appro- priately added, "They bring things about; they make events occur" Weak men are the opposite of this says Dr. J. N. Hurty in The Journal
 of the American Medical Association.
 Disease is itself not an evidence of
 physical or mental strength. Syphilis
 a great cause of poverty, as it is
 also of insanity. "We were getting
 along splendidly" said the poverty
 stricken woman, until my husband
 took consumption" And who must be told of the great poverty that trails
 consumption? A farmer died of ty-
 phod fever when the mortgage, giv- en in part payment for his farm, was
 only one-half paid off. His wife and
 little daughter took the disease and
 survived only finally to fill fuller the slums of city where she went with the child when the rich man foreclosed the mortgage. Yellow fever prevent. ed the French from building the Pa mama Canal, and thousands who had invested their all in canal shares were pauperzed.
 In Mexico there are thousands who have been made blind and pauperized by smallpox. There are at least two million blind beggars in China, all made blind by smallpox. It is only when epidemics come, when the great CT proportion of lives are threatened, that we realize the meaning of sick ness and disease. The ramifications ol disease are so complex and far reaching we can have but hay idea ol what disease means.
 It IS curious to note that, because ol our stupidity, ones very industry may bring poverty. This is illus uated by the occupational diseases. oAtll very recently society permitted greed to force phossy jaw on work men who afterward in many instan- 'eS became paupers. To rear and protect industries, one product of nalch WI IS poverty, is queer condition. inc prevention of phossy jaw will 'eftally also prevent all the poverty "nlch might come from it.
 Olgar-makers, printers and tailors, are especially afflicted with tubercu- '0sls; and on the pauper records ap- pear the names of hundreds who have 'O.iowed these occupations. A pro- p,e'or who does not surround his em- p'0yees with the best conditions of "ea''h IS breeder of disease, poverty and crime.

HOME RULE ACT
 HELD UP A YEAR

London, Sept. 16-The Irish Home Rule bill is to go on the statute books before this week is out. but it's opera ton is to be suspended for a year. In the meantime both the government and the Irish party pledge themselves to introduce an amending bill to sat- isfy Listers demands.
 That is the net result of the pro. ceedings in the House of Commons yesterday afternon, when Premier As- quith introduced a special bill giving effect to this arrangement
 The House was packed In every part There was much suppressed excite benches, but, although MT. Bonar Law. the Opposition leader, delivered a. speech, there were no unseem1y scenes.
 {. MT Bonar Law charged the govern ment with breach of faith in insisting on; preceding with home rule. and with taking advantage Of the loyal desire of the Upionists not to create trouble at this crisis. in order to force the measure through. He solemn1y pledged the Unfentst party, without conditions, to support Ulster by every means in resisting home rule when ever ite should be attempted to impose it On her by coercion.
 The MinfsteriaIisf especially the Irish party, showed great restraint. When. at the conclusion Of the speech Of the Oppositi6n leader, MT Bonar Law led the entire Unionist party out of the Chamber, John Redmond pro- ceeded to show that not the Unionists. but the. Nationa1fsts, might complain of the postponement of the bill, which would have been law befere this had not the war begun.
 At the same time MT. Redmond said he hoped that by the time the war was over a settlement acceptable to all concerned would have been arrived at.

Amusements
POLL THEATRE

Paramount Pictures have come to Bridgeport to stay, if one may judge from the favorable comments of the thousands of pleased patrons who have damned Polls theatre thus far this week to see Dustin NFarnum in the third release by this famous film firm, The Virginian.'' The picturiza- tion of the famous book by Owen Mister makes a. wonderful photo play, and the sentiment is heard uni yersally that 'sThe Virginian' is the very perfection of motion picture art.
 Five reels, 400. scenes and 300 char acters are required for the presentaL- ton of ''The Virginian.'' The scenes were taken amid Southern Ca1ifor- nia's- picturesque mountains and val leys and the photography is superb, adding much to the attractiveness of the story. Intermingled with the pretty love story of .'The Virginian'' and the school mistress of Bear Greek there is some artistic comedy that tends to relieve the many tense cra- play abounds.
 This evening will offer the last op- portuntty to see this wonderful film. The picture will be presented between the two shows, and patrons should be in their seats before S:SO o'clock in l order to see the entire production.
