IBrfrvention
A new Swiss watch contains a tiny
hard rubber phonograph plate whloh
calls out the hours loud enough to be
hoard twenty feet away. Sentiment
can be had by having the words re
corded on the plate In the tones of a'
dear friend as those of a man's wife
or children.
Tho amount of albumen necessary In
man's food has been proven by French
physiologists to be much less than baa
been supposed. From three to five
ounces dally was thought to b re
quired, but later Investigators found
that two and one-half and even one
and one-half ounces would suffice. In
the new experiments, continued for
thirty-eight days, the real need was
shows to bo less than one ounce per
day.
ICucaine, the new local anaesthetic, Is
adapted for many operations where
chloroform cannot be used on account
of heart weakness. It la Injected un
der the skin at the point of Incision.
Cutting may begin in a few momenta
without pain, and more of the drug
Is dropped In at Intervals of a few min
utes as new portions of tissue are ex
posed. A recent successful operation
In London was continued an hour and
a half.
A recent French Invention Is a ship's
compcas so mounted that as it swings
round with the variations In the point
ing of the vessel It produces automat
ically, through electric connections, a
chart on a sheet of paper, by consult
ing which the ship's officers can see
what the course was at any moment
of the voyage. The same apparatus
also registers the speed of the vessel
by recording the number of revolutions
of the scrows, each stroke of the pis
ton closing an electric current.
The acccleromoter, designed for
measuring the power exerted in start
ing a train and to indicate the proper
speed for curves, is the invention of
F. M. Oliley, a teacher of physics. It
consists ouentlally of two glass ve
sols connected by a tube and contain
ing liquid, such as mercury and red
alcohol. As the train starts, the liquid
passing from the forward glass to the
rear one shown by suttabla gradua
tions lndloates the force exerted, and
In the same way the Instrument, when
placed on Its side, makes evident the
Jerk or centrifugal force in rounding
a curve
Joseph Wharton, of Philadelphia,
suggests, in a paper read before the
American Philosophical Society, that
In the prevailing scarcity of platinum
the metal palladium might be a practi
cable substitute. It belongs to tsts
platinum group, although In soma re
spects It resembles silver. Anions its
valuable characteristics ars hardness,
ductility and malleability. It Is also
decidedly non-corrodible. It occurs,
along with nickel, copper, silver, gold,
platinum, Iridium and rhodium, In the
ores of the Canadian nickel mines in
Ontario. Out of 800,000 tons of these
oroa about 8,000 ounces of palladium
ore annually produced.
Dr. J. 0. Dwart, in disculng the
problom of the origin of horses, de
scribes as one of the most distinct
kinds now living tho Celtic ponies,
which are found in the most northern
parts of Iceland. They reach a height
of only four feet, and are so abun
dantly furnished with hair that in win
ter storms they are practically saow
proof.. Dr. Bwart observed the cos
duct of ono of these ponies during a
snowstorm. As soon as the storm be
gan alio turned her hind quarters to it,
and In a short time the snow had
formed a kind of shield or disk upon
the long hair growing about the root
of tho tall. Thus protected, the pony
did not shift hor position while the
storm lasted, except to turn with a
change of the wind.
The Submerged Seventh.
Just after the convening of the new
House of Representatives there waa
a member from tho West who was
boasting of tho enormous majority
given him by the voters of his dis
trict. "Why," the now member would ex
claim, ''do you know I was olected
by tho suffrages of seven different
nationalities?"
One day some one asked him to namo
the nationalities. He gave them:
"Irish, German, Polish, Bohemian,
Swedish and Greek."
"But you have named only six na
tionalities," said the seeker after
knowledge. "What was the seventh
one?"
The new member again ran over his
little list, but could not remember the
seventh nationality. At this Juncture
some facetious bystander chipped In
with the remarks "Maybe there were
some Americans in the bunch."
"Good for youl" shouted the new
Representative, lustily, slapping his
thigh. "But It waa funny that I should
forget them, don't you think?""
It Is one of the Inexplicable attri
bute of women that they really like
to get a long letter.
TRAINS BUTTERFLIES
CaUfermla Wosaam Caa Da Maay Tkiass
wltk Her Pets.
Miss Mabel Adams Ayer, of 1022
Clay street, a prominent Sunshine Club
worker and a member of the Forum
Club, has succeeded la training butter
flies. At first the Idea seems almost ab
surd, but if one can see the way Miss
Ayer handles her pets It seems the
ffiWt natural thing in the world. In
speaking of them to-day Miss Ayer
said:
"Why, It doesn't seem at all strange,
to me. They are Just like any other
trained pet They have their likes and
dislikes, 'and they are really lovable
little things when you come to know
them.
"The first thing that started me to
studying them was when I was asked
to deliver a lecture before the Forum,
Club. I chose for my subject 'Butter
files and Rainbows,' and, wishing to
give something more than could be
learned from books, I went into the
garden and captured one or two of the
butterflies. The more I studied them,
the more I loved them, and now they
are almost like people to me.
"When I first get one 1 uncoil his
tongue and feed him with sugar and
water, and the rest why, I don't
know; they Just come to know me,
that's all. You know, the buterfly has
six legs, and the two front ones he
uses to wash his face and preen him
self, much as a cat would.
"They live on sugar and water, and
I always keep" plenty of flowers in the
room for them. One big fellow, called
a 'Morning Cloak,' I was unable to do
anything with. He seemed to have no
affection. They are sensitive, and
nervous temperaments affect them al
ways. Some of them are quite playful,
and two or three would run after and
try to catch the end of a stickpin when
I drew It In front of them.
"One evening I wore several of them
on my shoulder as an ornament. Of
course, It was in my own home, but
they stayed on my gown all evening.
"I hove bad In all over forty butter
flies, but you know, they live only
three or four weeks, and most of them
are dead now.
"No, I do not use a net for catching
them. I simply go out and pick them
up. I always breathe on them, and
that seems to warm them, and they
get so they will fly all around me and
bathe or eat from my hand." San
Francisco Post
The Cooky Jar.
My mother's got a cooky Jar, a great big
crock'ry one,
An awful large and heavy thing, seems if
It weighed a ton.
It's got a lid that's crock'ry, too, and has
a knob on top;
You take both hands to lift It off, for
fear you'll let it drop.
It's in the kitchen closet there, down
underneath the shelf,
And If you're good she aays that you can
go and help yourself.
She keeps it solid, brimmin' full of
cookies all the time.
And when a feller'a hungry say! well,
ain't those cookies prime!
And when the long vacation's here, oi
on a holiday,
And you're been playln' all forenoon ai
hard as you can play
At "hide-and-seek," or "three old cat"
or marbles, like as not,
Till you're all tired and tuckered out and
sort of starred and hot
And dinner time seems if it was a whole
year off or more,
Why, then' the time you want to go to
that old oloeet door
And step In where it's dark and cool and
amells so good and aweet
And reach down In that cooky jar and
eat and eat and eat
And sometimes when I eit in school and
everything's so still
That yon can hear the outdoor sounds,
the splaahln' by the mill,
The rattle of a cart, or else a red wood
pecker's drwn,
While close around Is quiet 'cent the
sleepy, schooly hum,
I think of that old closet shelf and ol
the Jar beneath,
And how the cookies crack and crunch
between a feller's tcth,
And how tremendous good they taste, till
seems if, I declare!
I couldn't wait till school was out but,
when It la, I'm there.
A feller's mother always knows just
what Is good for boys,
She ain't like aunts and other folks wha
hate to hear a noise;
She understands a chap, she does, and
knows just how he feels
And that he has to eat a lot besides hit
reg'lar meals.
She knows that school and playln' makei
you have an appetite,
And that to wait and starve to death till
dinner time ain't right;
And so she puts the cooky jar beneath
the closet shelf
And fills it full of bully stuff and leti
you help yourself.
