Kidding CHEESE OF MITES
High-Frequeney Currents Of Electric
ity Are Employed for the Purpose
by French Scientist.

Not satisfied with ripening
peaches by electricity, a French sci
enlist has hit upon the plan of rid
ding cheese of mites by the applica-
ton of powerful high-frequency cur
rents.
He has invented a brush with fine
silver bristles. The brush is con-
nected with a powerful high-fre-
quency apparatus and then is passed
slowly over the surface of the
cheese. The surface is bathed in
hieatlcsss sparks sparks and and Tic tho organisms
are instantly electrocuted. This
scientific expert also has had remark
able success in ripening cheese by
electricity.
American ingenuity, however, has
overshadowed this Frenchman. We
are told the most successful raisers
of broilers for the city markets have
discovered that electricity is an in
dispensable aid in promoting the
growth of chickens. Since the chick
en- does its feeding exclusively in the
daytime, electric lights in the brood
ers play trick upon the unsuspect-
ing fowl and makes him a glutton.
He eats all the food he requires in
eight hours and utilities another
eight hours to digest it. Thus the
chicks live three electric days in two
ordinary days and consequently
reaches the markets weeks ahead of
their country cousins.

ment Which Had Afflicted the
Great Napoleon.

Napoleon the Great was exceed
ingly superstitious. The following
is told as one Of the Illustrations Of
this: When Napoleon, in the spring
of 1893, was lying before Acre, he
was anxious for news from upper
Egypt, whittier he had despatched
Dessaix in pursuit of distinguished
Mameluke leader. Not many days
after courier arrived with dis
patches, favorable in the main, but
reporting one tragical occurrence on
a small scale that to Napoleon out
weighed the public prosperity. The
commander, as a brave man, felt
that any fate that awaited him would
he better than to fall into the hands
of the enemy. He set fire to the
powder magazine. The vessel blew
up and the crew persisted. For all
this Napoleon cared little; but one
solitary fact there was in the report
which struck him with secret alarm /;
this Inflated boat was called liIta-
lie. and in the name of the vessel
Napoleon read an augury of the fate
which had befallen the italian terri
tory. Tie felt certain that Italy was
lost and Napoleon was inconsolable.
But what possible connection, it was
asked, can exist between this vessel
on the Nile and a remote peninsula
of southern Europe? mo natter"
replied Napoleon, "my presentiments
never deceive me. You will see that
all is ruined. / am satisfied that my
Italy, my conquest, is lost to
France" So, indeed, it was.
