ENDED DREAM OF WEALTH
Numerous Side to Alchemy Fiasco
Which Mas at First Taken
Quite Seriously.

Alchemy-the science of transmit
ing baser metals into gold-no longer
commands the serious attention OF
learned men. although 1t vas at the
basis of many of the scientific inves-
legations Of the ancients. 1t has not
been given respectful consideration
since the famous fiasco which termi-
mated the efforts of Professor Senior
of Germany. in the latter part of the
Nineteenth century.
Sender experimental with a COM
pound known as the salt of Life"
the discovery of a certain Baron
Hirschen, which was supposed to be
the universal medicine. He left a So
luton of this composition in warmth
for several days and, on examination,
was astonished to discover in it some
thin scales of a yellOwish metal which,
when tested, proved to be pure gold.
His discovery caused immense excite
ment, which terminated In a legal In
quiry of Semler's claims. It -:S
finally brought to light that an old and
devoted servant of Seniors had been
slipping small pieces of gold leaf into
the solution slyly, and with no idea
beyond gratifying his beloved master.
One of the gr eat laughs of the affair
was furnished by the discovery, dur
Ing n of the tests, Of a sort Of brass
composition In the jar, Instead of
gold. 1t turned out that this had been
placed there by the servants wife,
who had been -intrusted with the
money to purchase the gold leaf. She
had procured brass instead, spending
the balance Of the money for her IA
vorite beverage.

BIRDS "NEsT" REALLY RAFT
Water-Hen Prefers Floating Home
Chased by Some NaturaIists az
Land Creature.

You know the green weed that
grows In great patches on any rocky
shore. We call 1t seaweed. but really
1t Is a land plant which for some
strange reason has taken to the sea.
The water-hen is one of the most
interesting examples of such curious
transfers. Everyone knows this bird,
with Its red beak, its long dangling
legs, and its white tail. AS you walk
along the bank of a stream, 1t starts
up suddenly with a fearful fuss, flap
ping Its wings and beating the water
with Its feet. Finally it manages to
rise into the air, and moves off with
a numbering flight.
Though 1t is more at home on the
water than in the air, or on dry land,
the water-hen Is really a land bird.
Apparently 1t discovered centuries
ago that food was easier to obtain
In ponds and streams, and decided to
adopt al aquatic life. Its feet are
