r WILL KISSING BE PROHIBITED ? The Osculatory Process Denounced by Scientists as Extremely Dungerous â€" How tlie Danger Can be Removed. A keen discussion is being carried on tj some of the best scientists as to the <iang(T and "crime" of kissing, led Ly nr. Somers, Health Ollicer of Atlantic <Jly, and Di-. Nalpasse, of the Medical Facully of I'uris. They charge the kiss with sfireading grippe, scarlet lever, measles, inurjips, whooping cough, ty- l-hoid fever, diphtheria, erysipelas, men- engilis. tuberculosis and many infecti- ous skin diseases. They suggest legis- Inlion on the .subject, and the posting n' nolicfs in railway .stuliqiis, street cars and other public places, but they s-ay il would lie usele.ss to post them m vfrandatLS, in cosy corners, jwrclies, shady n<xik.=, or moonlit lawns. They also propose some compulsory legisla- tion for methods of disinfection of tile niotitli and purifjing the bi'ealh, especi- ally Willi ,1 view to the proUx'lion <jf vinocent bales, who are pariicularly s;jbjcct to infcclion.

Pennsylvania Shoemaker's Discovery â€"More Warmth in Ashes Than in Anthracite. While sitting at his bench eking out a living with hammer and awl, John EUmore, a cobbler of Altoona, Pennsyl- vania, for twenty years has been re- volving In his brain a problem that he has Anally solved to his own satisfac- tion, and that apparently is destined to revolutionize the question of producing heal. Ellmore says he has discovered a method of making ashes burn, and a praclical demonstration has convinced former sceptics. Ellmore not only makes ashes burn and produce heat, but he [)roduces considerably more heal from n given quantity of ashes than can be obtained from the same amount of pure bituminous or anthracite coal. At the plant of the Citizens' Electric Company he the other day was allotted one of ten boilers, and with three bushels, of ashes he produced more heat than was oblaine<I from the other nine. This de- moiisl ration was witnessed by several hundred persons. A .SIMPLE PROCESS. Ellmore Ls carefully guarding his se- cret, and has applied for patent rights. His process is very simple. He lakes ten parts of ashes to one pari of coal ^5i^?> topnqf mm 'i^rJ^.'^y/ Thia cold-water starch ^ir'sJ^i":/ %^^ ironing -day over gjl&iy quicker, with less wew on |fe'>jrthe ironer's muscles and far ^O'^f lew on the starched pieces. - 'JfGiTes a beautiful gloss.

Absent-Mindetl .Surgeon Left Pair r t : Forceps in Woman's Body. I .\ remarkable case of neglect on Iht part of a hospital surgeon is mention t<l in the British .Medical .loumal. Dr. Stewart, of M!d:and Junction, Wes: .Australia, records the cii'cumstances o! the case. He operated on a woman and found a pair of forceps in her body. The forcep.<! were nearly 5 i/iches in length, and the width across the handle.' was about 2 inches, and they had been left in the woman's body after an opera- t:on ten and a half years before. "That the forceps should hftve attained the po- sition in which they were found with- out causing death is extraordinary.'' j Dr. Stewart writes: "Though the pali- I ont's health had been wretched during ' tl-.ese years, and a large part of the IMne spent in lied, it is worthy of no- lice that she had oponsionally fell well enough to parlicipote in dances. I have • reason to believe that no rs'cord of the former operation can lie found in the books of the hospital where il was per fc.rmed."
