Ench tree Is perfect ly straight nml from 130 to 150 feet In height nnd twelve to fifteen feet In circumference. Twice ns much hent Is generated by X;rnyn In lead as In zinc. The only explanation evident to tho discoverer Is that certain elements are brdttcn up by tlieso rays nnd that tho energy lib erated from these atoms forms a part of that appearing when tho rays nro absorbed by matter. The automatic gas klndler and extin guisher of Herr ltaupp of Mayeneo Is based upon the singular effect of light In Increasing tho electric conductivity of selenium. With tho coming of day light tho selenium permits tho ready passage of an electric current, nnd this causes the shutting off of tho gas, which tho apparatus turns on again ond Ig nites ns darkness comes again. The selenium, of course, Is shielded from the light of the burning gas. Tho countries having a surplus of wheat of their owu growing nnd the countries that must Import lnrgo sup plies from abroad to supplement their own production mako nn Interesting table. Under the first bending come the United States, Canada, Russia, Austria-Hungary, Itoumaula and Bul garia, Turkey In Asln,lNorth Africa, Australasia, India nnd Argentina. Un der the second bending como Great lirltnln and Ireland, Germany, Bel glum, Holland, Italy, Franco, Switzer land, Spain, Portugal, Greeco and Scan dinavia. For a long tlmo Russia has occupied tho second placo as a wheat producing country, tho United States holding first place. But now Argentina Is rapidly overtaking Russia In the race for second place. Tho new railway lirldgo over tho Yel low river In China Is one of tho largest and most rcmarkahlo In tho world. It It n mllo nnd soron-clghths In length nnd Is composed entirely of steel, with no masonry whatever, according to tho report of Special Consulnr Agent Crist It rests on steel tubes embedded In tho river bottom, nnd supporting n series of arches varying from about 00 to 03 feet In length. Homo of tho supporting pillars consist of n group of 8 steel tubes sunk CO feet In tho river bed. The problems encountered by tho en gineers wero particularly dllllcult be cause tho river current changes not only with tho season, but even day by day. Sometimes whero thcro Is a bed of sand ono day 0 feet of wntor may be found tho next day. Tho strongest currents nro In August and September. During tho past two or three yenrs tho French government hns endeavored to stlmulnto tho ancient Industry of flace-muking by hand by providing spo- clal Instruction In girls public nnd nor mal schools, In thoso provinces whero tho manufacture of lace has been car ried on for generations. Tho results nro encouraging. It Is estimated that nt present nbout 13.1,000 persons nro en gaged In loco-making In Franco, only half tho number employed when tho Industry wns nt (ts height, before tho Introduction of innclilne-iiindu lnce. It In recognized that hand-made laco poi senses n beauty nnd nrlglbnllty of de sign which will nlwnys glvo It a place In tho market, for, after nil, tho most cunning of innchlues Is tho huninn hand. Until this speclnl effort at revival wns begun, however, tho Industry wns rapidly becoming extinct. VALUE OF SUNLIT HOMES. Southern Esponuro (live Three Sides the Ilenellt of Direct Hi.). Sunlight Is nature's most henltli-glv-lug scavenger. A house without sun light Is unhealthy and unsafe for hu man occupancy nnd It Is necessary no! only to hnvo homo sunlight but to lmv as much of It ns possible. It Is.of course, not fenslblo to admit the direct rays oi tho sun Ho ever)' room of n houso ; th typical plan of all houses Is square oi rectangular anil nt least one side ol the houso Is entirely bejoudMho reach of tho sun. Tho other threo sides, however, enn receive more or less direct sunlight nnd the problem of the plan Is thus reduced to arranging the various rooms so thai the amount of sunlight Is adjusted to their uses, arid It must be sunlight, foi mere light Itself Is not stittlcleut; tin rays of the sun have curative and cleansing properties that nothing els has. It Is generally admitted that a south ern exposure Is the best for all houses and should bo obtained whenover kju slble. It Is Immaterial whether the en trance bo placed on this or not so long ns the rooms most In uso open onto th house. In dwellings of average slz the eutrnuco front- will also Imj tho fronl on which any Important room opens, hut in largo country houtes the old distinction of a front and n back to a house has disappeared and Instead w have tho entrance front and the garden front; the service and servants' quar ters, so long regarded as characteristic of the "back" of a house, may bo rele gated to the side end or placed In a wing that abuts directly on the en trance front. In such cases It must Ix well screened and Its purpose thor oughly subordinated. The most sympathetic iierson In the world cannot restrain a smile at a wor ried expreailou ou tho face of a fut man. rkflffiKi EcSPHl FlEADINGHOTELS 1 HOTEL PEDICORD T. J.
