Strange Inventions.

In. enumerating some of the strange patents sanctioned by the patent of flee, writer mentions tornado proof house, the invention of Brook lyn man. It is built on a pivot, so that every breeze turns it with its head to the wind. Among other inven- tions is a pedal calorificator," with which one can blow upon ones toes to warm them. It is tube worn under the clothes; with branch leading to each foot and mouthpiece at the top. Then there are a polisher for false teeth-merely the end of corn cob stuck on stick-a sanitary pock- ct for carrying chewing gum, a wood en bit for preventing snoring, a noise less alarm clock that yanks the sleep CTS arm instead of ringing, another that starts a mechanism that throws him out of bed, and a machine for counting eggs as they are laid.-Sci. entific American.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
HEAVY BUYING MONDAY.

New York, July 14.-The week on the stock exchange opened with a and varied dealings. further heavy buying resulting from the large ac cumulation of orders over the recess
 Again the movement appeared to be predicated on easy financial conditions and the numerous optimistic surveys and opinions from various sections of the country these being tempered in a measure however, by indications of further crop deterioration.
 Last weeks bank statement proba- hiy was an added factor with it's i'm crease of excess reserves. Call mon- ey held for most of the session at 6 to 6 12 per cent, but the rate for all industrials rose to 10 per cent. just be- fore the close, even 12 being paid for small loans.
 Western and southwestern scepuIa- tive interests were credited with much of the new buying. which concentrated to an unwonted extent in equipments comrEehending the steels and iron ties.
 Leaders of the movement. which lost little of it's vigor despite extensive realizing for profits, included t5rucitle Baldwin Locomotive and Stutz Mo tors, each gaining 10 points. with the latter at a new maximum
 Bethlehem Steel, American Car, American Locomotive: Central Leath- CT, leading coppers and allied metals and several of the motor subsidiaries participated in the movement at two to six points gain, but rails were rela- lively backward and shipping failed to retain their early gains. Sales amounted to 1850, 900 shares
 Greater weakness was displayed by sterling exchange. Francs also yielded and the general trend of foreign remit tances was favorable to this country

Water Stored in Plants.

A birch tree standing in the open
 l;s been found to give off more than 800 pounds of water per day. A man 3qutpped with two ordinary water
 GiilS would have to make 32 trips in order 10 carry this amount of water. If he had steps up to the top of the free and could make round trip every ten minutes he would work more than five hours per day to carry this amount of water. This evaporation is il large factor in raising water to the tops of plants. Recent investigation indicates that this molecular diffusion, which we call transportation, exerts suction throughout the whole vascular system of the plant-leaves, branches stem and roots. The contained water seems to be under tension even to the tips of the roots.-George B. Riggs in Science.

Praise and Blame.

People of good sense allow liberal discounts on all they hear Both praise and blame should be put un- der the same scuIling process. More people are rendered useless to society by praise than by blame. It's so easy to turn the head of those who have little in them to hold them steady. People of stamina are fully aroused by injustice. It's as much a challenge 10 tneIr ability as it is an insult to fhelr intelligence. They won't suffer much by being falsely reported. Un- truth IS not any more pleasant to them man It IS to thousands of others, but II reacts differently. Criticism puts them on their mettle and they sift the report Tor the facts. Then they are ready for business.

Patron Saint of Football.

In November is the festival of St. Brice, who may be called the patron saint or football players, not alone be- cause his feast day comes during the season for the gridiron game, but for quite another reason. St. Brice's day was long generally observed in Eng land, and in the year 1902 the celebra- tion took the form of general mas sacre of the Danes. It was on that day. according to tradition, that the Eng fish game of football was invented! with the. head Of q Dane as the. ball. St. Brice, of course, was not responsi- ble for either the massacre or the football game, having died some six centuries before. He was a bishop of Tours and lived in the fifth century.

In the desert of Sonora, Mexico, there is a plant, the guarequl, which husbands its water. supply. The guare- qui is a relative of the squash and pumpkin, and inhabits a locality in which practically all the rain falls within period of six weeks.
