Try it and you will be amazed at result with labor and time expended: Make a swab of an old cloth on the end of a stick, tie securely so 1t will not work off; bail out the water with small cup or cover so you can cleanse away down; then purchase five or ten cents worth of muratic acid which is poison; turn little on An old saucer, dip the swab ill and apply to all parts of the bowl, and in five min utes your work will be complete. Great care must be taken not to touch the acid, as it will burn quickly and deeply.-Exchange.

Maunesla in Sea Shells.

Chemical analysis of starfishes, sea urchins and crinoids, collected from all parts of the world, show that the skeletons of these animals contain much magnesia. The amount present Is found to vary with the temperature of the water in which the creatures lived. The percentage of magnesia Is highest in those specimens that lived In tropical waters and lowest in forms from the icy seas af Greenland and the Antarctic, with regular grada- tion between which even shows the local effect of cold ocean currents upon lile at the sea bottom. The in> vestigations suggest that the skeie- tons of these animals have the compo- Sition of the manganese limestone, or dolomite, and 1t is possible that they furnish clues not only as to the climatic conditions under which Nmestones are now formed, but also as to the temperatures of the oceans in different regions of the earth where. during different periods of geologic history, great deposits of magnetism limestone were formed.

Air Scouts Phonoqraphs.

When the military aeropiane is scouting. it usually carries two men. Ore is the pilot, who runs and steers the craft; the other is the observer, who marks the placing of the hostile troops, the position of their guns, the movement of trains, and the like. The observer also makes many sketches of the ground over which he is flying work that often interfere1 with his writing notes and memoranda. In certain conditions of flight, too, 1t is often hard for him to use pencil and paper. To obviate that difficulty the military aeroplane now frequently carries photograph. with speaking tube running to the mouth of the ob. server, so that by talking into the machine at any time during the flight 1e can record his observations, and still have his hands free for his field glass or his sketching pencil.

(By MOnty.)

New York, June 5.-The cause of that series of clandestine meetings be- tween Ban Johnson, president of the American league, and Philip De c. Ball, wealthy partner of Otto F. Stifel Tn the ownership of the St. Louis club of the Federal league. has been ascertalned from strictly reliable source. Though they have not been trying to arrange truce in the base gall war, they nevertheless have been engaged on a proposition of consider able import and one that will mark quite departure from methods pur- sued in the past in dealings between the two factions.
 There is a possibility that the Fed ersl league will move out of St. Louis at the close of this season. A new club is to be established up in the Bronx next year, and perhaps another team somewhere farther east than St. Louis. The present plan. of the Fed leaders is to move both the St. Louis and Kansas City clubs east ward so as to decrease the cost of railroad fares in travelling round the extended circuit Next years Fed eral league probably will be com pact organization composed of Brook lyn, the Bronx, Newark and Balti- more Ill the East, and Pittsburgh, Chi cago, Buffalo and Toledo in the West. 1t Is known as an actual fact that the Feds have obtained options on lots in Washington and the Bronx, the lat ter being the likely choice for new club,

"ReuIcides" in America,

They were all men of good families, stood high in CromWell's confidence and had fought in some of his hardest battles. They lived in Massachusetts several years, Tn concealment, and then in Connecti' cut, one or two of them dying at New Haven DiXwell assumed the name of James Davids, married Massachu. setts woman and reared family of Davds children, whose descendants may still be living.

Why Glass Cracks.

You have learned by experience that cold water Will crack a hot glass. or hot water cold glass. But did you know that a thick glass will crack much more readily under such treat. ment than a thin glass? When hot water strikes cold glass. for example. the heat of the water is quickly com. municated to the glass next it. caus- ing the glass to expand. If the glass is thin, the heat is quickly communi- cated to both sides of the glass so that they expand together without damage. But If the glass is thick the heat is slow in getting through and tbe side next the hot water expands so much more rapidly than the other side that the glass is cracked.-The Ameri. can Boy.

Why Joseph Was Sad,

1orlorn little Joseph had called upon E2e with crumpled note which he re. luctantly dragged from pocket. It was from the admitting agent of an orphan age, explaining that Joseph could not be taken into the institution until his head was "cured;" and it gave some details regarding the family, the worthiness of the mother, and her ex. ceeding poverty. The agent hoped that might relieve her by expediting Joseph's admission. I tried to make the child's daily visit to me interest ing. The treatment was not painful, but the end of each visit-he came with patient regularity every day left me as dolorous as himself One day I tried, by promise of a present or any treat he fancied, to bring out some expression of youthful spirit all unavailingly "But you must wish for something" I urged; T never knew boy who didn't" For the first time the silent little lad showed en- thusiasm. Il wish you wouldn't cure my head, so needn't go to the orphan asylum Lillian w. Wald, in the At- lantic.
 What Scandal ls.
 Of scandal the New Republic writes: There are few of us who do not enjoy this sense of really know. ing what's what. It extends our ex- perience, and gives us vicarious inn portance. If we cannot live great passions, we can at least read about Mme Du Barry's boudoir; if we can. not be smart, we can at least feel that we have an insiders knowledge of the smart set. The moral earnest ness and deep attention which people will devote to discussing other peo- ple's domestic affairs suggests that gossip is perhaps a genuine primi- tive art in which there is interest through pity and fear and pride and joy. One woman leaves her husband; a hundred women chatter about it., and their passionate interest might make cynic wonder whether they are not living through all the emo tons of a great adventure without the risk of moving away from their own steam radiators. Gossip is ex- perience without responsibility. 1t is a means of taking part in inter- esting or important events without any of the risk that comes of being an actor in them. Gossip, in short, is the pleasure of the spectator at tAe business 0, Nfe."

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the car. There is only one way to cure deafness. and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an innamed condition of the mu- cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inhamed you have d rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condi- ton hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
