Enthusiastic photographers are experi­

Some of tbe heavenly bodies are incline^’,
to be fast. Meteorites sometimes attain a

Now that everything is being done by elec­
tricity, it is not strange that the fisherman
should utilize it. A small battery is at­
tached to tbe rod, and near tbe hook is a
small electric light. The fisherman lights up

rest.
Saffron, as is well known, is used to color
butter, nudels^lqaors, etc., that fine shade
of yellow which tbe public delights .in, and
takes to indicate unusual purity of the arti­
cles. Since the introduction of the aniline
colors, a number of them have lieen used in­
stead of saffron, being stronger and in tbe
end cheaper.
A kind hearted scientist announces that a

As was expected, it is a gas. Even silicium

An ingenious idea has been hit upon by an
investigator on the preservation offruit
juices. He finds that the addition of J^Very
small amount of chloroform, about five to
ten drops, to two pounds of the liquid to be
preserved, acts as a most excellent preserva­
tive. The method is certainly a very simple
one, and such a small amount of chloroform
should be entirely harmless.
