CONFEDERATE MONEY BURNED
eills Converted TO
Nero Cartoons fer
Lamps.

Twenty years ago there was still o
large supply OF the paper money is
sued by the Confederate governemnt
during the Civil war. Today not much
of it is met with, and even the cons
fdence men have to resort to real
co~unterfeits. What has become Of It?
asks the New York Sun.
There Is a man in Atlanta who can
answer that question, for he has dis
posed of millions of 1t. Through some
scores of commercial travellers with
whom he was acquainted, he was for
some years buying up all the Confeder-
ate bills that could be procured, at
a price that seemed to many too
high for what was, after all, worthless
paper.
In turn he sold it to the Edison
company for a good price. For Ger
tain small tncandescent lamps which
the Edison people were m~anufactur-
ing q certain kind Of carbon was
needed, which could best be obtained
from paper made out Of sea grass.
That kind Of paper is not made any
more. But the confederate money was
all made out Of sea grass paper.
From this the carbons for the lamps
could be manufactured. Now that the
sea grass paper can no longer be
had, bamboo Is being used instead, but
1t Is not quite SO good.

Nitrates From the Air,

In the American Magazine Albert
W. Atwood tells how the DuPonts and
the Rockefellers are developing proc
esses for extracting the nitrogen gas
from the atmosphere.
1.-THE DUPONT interests control and
propose to develop in this country the
process most extensively employed
abroad. One of the newest processes,
the n upon which the Rockefeller en-
terprise is based, consists Of liquify-
ing air. Until 1898, when two scien-
lists, d in England, the other in Po-
land, almost simultaneously made the
discovery, no n had yer made air
stream down like water. The process
consists Of reducing the air toAa very
low temperature by means of powerful
c~ompressors. The process Is already
in successful commercial operation in
France and the Societe de PAir Ii
guide of that country is u Of the
large stockholders in the Air Reduction
company of New York, in which Percy
Rockefeller is the largest owner. The
American company proposes to install
a plant in every state, and believes
that each plant will be able to produce
100000 cubic feet Of nitrogen daily.
Rockefeller has gathered around him
as directors men who are not accus-
toned to entering upon purely vision
airy enterprises"

Divers Have to 90 When Milady
Wants Certain Decoration fer
Her Head9ear.

To the bottom Of the Chesapeake
bay went American manufacturers Of
artificial flowers in quest of a certain
decoration for milady's headgear. when
the war cut off the German supply.
They found it, and the bureau Of fish
cries, which aided the manufacturers

The product is a species of fern,
brown in color, which grows in abuR-
dance attached to the rocks and shells
in the bed Of Chesapeake bay. BY dye

in addition to being used OF women's
hats, it is used for house decorations.

bureau Of fisheries loaned the Fish

more artificial flower manufacturer to
engage in the explorations for the
fern. Efforts are now being made to

Better Than Faucets.

Foot power is required to wash your
hands in n of the new washbowls
designed for use in schools, public in
situations and offices, as well as pr1-
vate homes. The faucets supplying
the water have no handles. They are
operated by pedals underneath the
stand. Pressing one pedal gives hot
water and the other supplies cold.
This permits the user to have his wa
ter at the temperature he desires.
AS soon as the pressure upon pedal is
released, its waterfowl stops. Physi-
clans and dentists find this foot con
trolled water supply a great con
v%enience because it does not require
the use of a hand to secure water. It
is claimed that it would lessen the
water waste in all public places where
the washstand is in almost continual
use.

GIVES RULES FOR TEACHERS
Squared Shoulders Drive Home Hy-

Doctor Says.

Pertinent instructions to public
school teachers as to the manner in
which they shall conduct themselves
about the schoolroom so that they may
be an example to their pupils were
given by DR.. Edward Martin, member
Of the Philadelphia board Of educa-
ton, who presided at q health confer
ence Of principals Of the public
schools.
"Brace up, have a correct carriage
and be able to look others in the
9acs," Doctor Martin said to the sew
eral hundred teachers who attended
the conference. He commented on the
excellent carriage OF the West Point
cadets, and told the instructors that
they shsuld 60 with squared shoulders
before their pupils.
During the Spanish-American war,
while he was on inspection duty in the
South, Doctor Martin said the stand
ing Of q regiment always could be pre-
dicted by looking at the officers who
commanded 1t. II the officers walked
erect and with vgor, the troops usual
~ were like them.
AL Of the speakers admitted that
since the institution Of the course in
physiology and hygiene the children
came to school clearer, behaved better
and that much Of the instruction given
at school had been carried home to the
parents.

Steppedinuomates.

Some jaw-twister, Ell? Never mind
trying to pronounce the thing, just cali
it "boo," Or "x," and save time as well
as patience. 1t relates to a disease
recognized by %osteopaths and caused
by high street a steps. Awful name
for a thing so simple, Ell? One might
be pardoned, In view of such a name
for the ailment, in thinking that it
meant the whole dingbusted works had
been scrambled like so many eggs. DR..
f. G. Cluett of Sioux City, Ia, told
the state e%steopaths about it during
their convention the other day, ex-
planning that the disease, st%eppedinuo-
mates, is a general nervous disorder
and Is spreading rapidly. The jar on
alighting from a high step causes a
displacement of the innominate bone,
and the trouble begins.
Doctor Cluett said he had treated
several patients recently, all living
near a lines, and all afflicted in the
same way. A car step should not be
more than eight inches high, the
height of the average STEP" said the
doctor. Anything higher cause a
jar that may have serious conse-
quences."

STREETS TO BE- FAIRGROUNDS
Hundred to Traffic This
Summer.

With the intention Of establishing
more play streets for. children this
summer, the police Of New York will
begin at once a survey Of the coagest-
led. districts in the city to determine
where these recreadon eenters are
required, to decrease the number of
accidents. Commissioner Woods said
that he was convinced that these
streets were absolutely necessary for.
the protection of life IN the summer;
months.
Studies already made by the depart
'ment show that although Is per cent
Of the population live south Of Four
tteenth street, between 10 and 20 per
cent Of all the persons injured and
killed last year lived in that section. I
"VVith sufficient funds at hand to
hire competent supervisors" Mr..
Woods said, "there does not seem to
be any reason why at least one; hun
bred streets should not be closed this
summer, stanchions placed TO keep
traffic out and the sapervsion}of these
Fairgrounds put into the hands of an
organization similar to the parks and
Fairgrounds.
SIN this city thera are 1,O16,520
children between Ave and fifteen years

Der es2,e41 must play away from home,

HAS Received HER LEGACY
Descendant Of Patrick Henry Would
Seem Fully Possessed of "Most
Valued Possession"

Patrick Henry wrote in his will, II
have now disposed of all my property
to my family there is one thing more
I wish 1 could give them, and that is
the Christian religion. If they have
that, and I had not given them one
shilling, they would be rich; and If
they have not this, and I had given
them all this world, they would be
poor"
1t would seem that the only portion
Of this legacy in which the nearest
known lineal descendant Of Patrick
Henry now living has shared is in the
fulfllment of his wish that his family
might have the Christian religion. Per-
haps the strongest characteristic Of
Lucy Anne Henry Peters, who Is, SO
far as can be learned, the only living
great-grandch1ld of Patrick Henry, is
her piety and devotion to the church.
Although Mrs. Peters is now in her
seventy-fourth year, she attends Sun
day school as regularly as Sunday
rolls around and cannot remember
when she missed either, regardless Of
the weather, and the only book she
has read for many years is the Bible,
which she consults every day.
Mrs. Peters, who now lives at Han
nibal, Mo-, is the only one living Of the
IL children Of Edmund Henry, who,
according to Raleigh Travers Green in
his "Historic Families of Virginia"
was the only child of John Henry, the
Oldest son and the fourth of the five
children of Patrick Henry, by his first
wife, Sarah Shelton Henry. Ex-
change.
