The growth of germs produces "dirt" of the most harmful nature, since the ab­ sorption of the materials thrown oil in the course of their growth occasions symptoms resembling acute poisoning. The words antiseptic and antisepsis are almost synonymous with words of old-time virtue--namely, clean and cleanliness. A perfectly cle^n wound heals rapidly and without the dis­ charge of fluids. In order to secure this most desir­ able result the surgeon goes to ex­ treme lengths to secure absolute clean­ liness. The site of the wound, the sur- , geon's hands and nails, the instru­ ments employed must each be rendered absolutely free from the least trace of germ life. Unbroken surfaces cf the skin and mucous membranes are themselves re- , sistant to germ life. Breaks in the continuity of the skin or mucous mem­ brane, or inflammation, form avenues by which germs of disease frequently gain entrance to the system. It is therefore desirable that even insignifi­ cant wounds and inflamed conditions should be frequently bathed with cleansing solutions. Slight sore throat, the enlarged ton­ sils of childhood, whether they are of short or long duration, should, in the light of the present knowledge of the disease, be dally cleansed with mild an­ tiseptic solutions in order that more serious disorder be not the outcome. Solutions of the kind termed anti­ septic are "healing" because they op­ pose the growth of germ life. Nature herself heals, but progress in healing is more rapid when the process is un­ hindered by these microscopic forms of life. Some of the methods in vogue long before the modern term came into use are nevertheless in line with the scien­ tific application of the principles of antiseptics. The old-time use of the lye of wood-ashes for wounds caused by unclean instruments is an example. Where antiseptic drugs are not avail­ able, clean wood-ashes, formerly at hand everywhere, and boiling water form an antiseptic solution not to be despised, even yet. During and after times of illness a process of cleansing must be instituted which will render everything antisep­ tic on which the germs of disease may have lodged. Exposure of contaminated articles to sunlight and air is an easy way of ob­ taining excellent 'results. When floors and the like are to be cleansed, carbolic acid freely diluted with water is the best of all the easily obtained substances. Lime is an excellent absorbent of moisture and is rapidly fatal to «germ life. It has a wide range of usefulness, both indoors and out. It is a valuable deodorizer as well as an antiseptic. A LOFTY BALLOON ASSENT. On the last day of July Dr. Berson, the German aeronaut, accompanied by Dr. Suering, made a balloon ascent from Berlin, and attained the enor­ mous altitude of about 33,000 feet, or six and a <j<iarter miles. Then they lost consciousness, so that, although they descended safely, they have no record to show what the maximum height attained may have been. The minimum temperature recorded by their thermometer was 40 degrees Cen­ tigrade. Their experience in losing con­ sciousness at a critical point recalls that of Mr. Glaisher and his compan­ ion during their ascent in England many years age, when the height at­ tained was supposed to have been about seven miles. Hot say there was nothing new la Soros and design we venture to name the "Pad Cleaner and Ink Distributor" as '*A New Thing." And it seems to us one, of.the most useful things ever put on the market in this line, says Chi­ cago Stamp Trade Journal. The following items will fully ex­ plain this new invention to the trade. Everyona desires to obtain a good im­ pression from a stamp. To do this one requisite is to keep it clean and in a good printing condition. This is more important than many suppose, as a linty and gummed stamp will always be dauby and blurred. The illustration represents this new cleaner. If you will examine your rub­ ber printing dies after a prolonged use of them you may find them filled with dust, dirt or lint. This scientific cleaner is just the thing to remoye all these excrescences. It is a combina­ tion of a brush having hexagon- shaped teeth on one side and a three- blade scraper on the other side, made INKER AND CLEANER, entirely of rubber, into which is in­ serted a handsomely finished wooden handle. The inventors say that it will not mar or cut the nicest stamp, but will effectually remove all foreign sub­ stances from it. The dry brush is all that will be needed to clean the stamp unless the dirt should be caked on the surface. Then it is necessary to use soap and water, which, applied and rubbed with this brush, will do the work. Do not use benzine, turpentine or gasoline. This brush thus becomes an indispensable article to every user of a rubber stamp and will be a great taker for the trade. After the stamp has been cleaned or is kept clean it will be necessary to have a clean ink pad. To clean them the scraper side of the cleaner is used. Rnb briskly the surface of the pad, until all particles of dirt or line ar removed, By rubbing the cleaner after, each application to the pad with a small piece of rubber dam or linen cloth you will always have a clean implement to do clean work. Dirt and lint will accumulate fast, but if your stamps and pads are looked after once or twice a week for only a few moments at a time with this cleaner, yfcu will find that the work done will be much better. KEEPING A STRAIGHT LINE. What man has learned by dint of thought and experiment some, of the lower animals appear to know through instinct. An instance is furnished by the "spiral swimming" of certain or­ ganisms, such as the spherical-shaped volvox and several elongated infusori- ans. As they revolve about the axis of progression as does a projectile fired from a rifled gun, the consequence is, as Dr. H. S. Jennings points out, that they are able to travel in a straight line, as they could not do otherwise, the revolution compensating with ab­ solute precision for any tendency to deviate from a straight course. With­ out such a device many of these minute creatures would simply describe ciVcles making no forward progress. CARRIAGE FOR CRIPPLES. As an aid to cripples who are unable to walk about from place to place, but who have the free use of their arms, Justelle B. Cummings, of Maine, has designed the mechanically propelled vehicle here shown. Its especial ad­ vantage is that with no other aid than the two hands the rider may gnide the MECHANICALLY PROPELLED VE­ HICLE. carriage in any direction from a straight line to describing a small cir­ cle or may turn completely around Without mqving the vehicle forward or backward. The mechanism is exceed­ ingly simple, as a glance at the cut will Bbow, the wheels being p&yoted on (he frame which carries the seat, with a crank geared to the hub of each Wheel to rotate it in either direction. As the carrying frame is loosely sus­ pended from the wheels it is possible for the rider to tilt the se§Ll*to any comfortable angle and a canopy may lie placed on the frame overhead to shut out sun and storm. As each wheel is independent the rider has but to turn one crank alone to make the adjoining wheel describe a circle around the other and it is an easy matter to guide and propel the vehicle. 1 'H CLEANS STAMPING B1ACHINK8. We would not like to dispute the "wise man" who said "there was noth­ ing new under the sun," but u he did DECORATIVE BUTTONS. Buttons are much in evidence--not for use so much as for ornament-- large, small and of medium size. The latest fancy in these is for antique' coins, from one to half a dozen, on bolero or coat, a style introduced last winter in Paris and which has but re­ cently crossed the channel. Small but­ tons, black, silver or gold are used in quantities on strappings. I have just seen a dainty gown of pale blue china crepe, made to order, which was liter­ ally dotted with tiny black buttons. These ran down the front of the skirt to meet three frills at the foot, and starting from the three wide tucks around the shoulders, made a line at the left side. ENDURANCE OF BACTRIAN CAMELS. Travelers in Siberia have noticed with much surprise the ability of the native camels to withstand, without protection, the greatest extremes of cold and heat. In winter the ther­ mometer on the Mongolian plateau sometimes drops to 40 degrees Fahren­ heit, yet the camels wander about with no evidence of suffering. On the other hand, the Russian explorer, Prejeval- ski, found the temperature of the ground in the Gobi desert in summer to be more than 140 degrees Fahren­ heit, but the camels are apparently as indifferent to this degree of heat as they are to the winter cold. NEW SYSTEM OF BUILDING. The postal savings bank building in Amsterdam, Holland, is being con­ structed by the "Monier system," a new method of construction. A steel framework, like a bird cage in appear­ ance, is enveloped in Portland cement, which prevents the steel from rusting, while the cement itself is rendered elastic. The steel acts entirely in ten­ sion and the concrete in pressure. This construction is said to be strong, fire­ proof and waterproof, and to be grow­ ing in favor in Europe for government buildings, and factories. A ROOM FOR PICTURES. The best background for pictures is plain terra cotta or brown paper. A woman who is the proud possessor of many old prints and engravings has them in her dining room. The walls are covered with wrapping paper, or something that looks very like it, and above is a frieze of orange distemper. The picture rails and woodwork are white. The hangings are of orange- colored velveteen. All the furniture is mahogany.--Philadelphia Inquirer. Mod*|a for the Coronation. Birmingham medallists arq, Just now extremely busy upon the production of medals for the coronation. It is probable that upward of 10,000,000 medals will be turned out of Birming­ ham workshops during the next six months, to cope with tiie demands al­ ready pouring in from all parts of ths empire. Thrown from Hia Cab and Killed. The following is a most interesting and, in one respect, pathetic tale: -- Mr. J. Pope, 42 Fefrar Road, Streat- ham, England, said: "Yes, poor chap, he is gone, dead-- horse* bolted, thrown off his seat on his cab he was driving and killed-- poor chap, and a good sort, too, mate. It was him, you see, who gave me the half-bottle of St. Jacobs OH that made a new man of me. 'Twas like this: me and Bowman were great friends. Some gentleman had given him a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil which had done him a lot of good; he only used half the bottle, and remembering that I had been a martyr to rheuma­ tism and sciatica for years, that I had literally tried everything, had doctors, and all without benefit, I became dis­ couraged, and looked upon it that there was no help for me. Well," said Pope, "You may not believe me, for it is a miracle, but before I had used the contents of the half-bottle of St. Jacobs Oil which poor Bowman gave me, I was a well man. There it is, you see, after years of pain, after using remedies, oils, embrocations, horse liniments, and spent money on doctors without getting any better, I was completely cured in a few days. I bought another bottle, thinking the pain might come back, but it did not. so I gave the bottle away to a friend who had a lame back. I can't speak too highly of this wonderful pain­ killer." Famoas New York Bowery. The tide of business in New York city is turning rapidly toward the Bowery and in a short time the thor­ oughfare will undergo a revolution which will completely change its char­ acteristics. Above Grand street the Bowery is all that could be desired. Women may walk the streets at any hour and meet nothing but courtesy. Children play about with the habitual cheerfulness of young tenement dwell­ ers. Here and there a brightly lighted concert hau may attract the uninitiat­ ed to see an uncommonly UttU perform­ ance of some kind, but there is little to satisfy the lover of the sensational. Below Grand street--that is another story. Even there the street compares favorably with many others that do not suffer from equally evil reputa­ tions. An ordinance passed last Janu­ ary designated Cooper square which makes a fitting terminal for the wide street leading to it. Tbe great brown building of Cooper institute looms up imposingly from the moment the trav­ eler in the Bowery turns at Grand street. Now the square has a new fea­ ture to recommend it--the St. Gaudens statue of the founder of the institute. A College Joke, The tradition runs at Cambridge that when a tourist asked old John the Orange Man what the Latin inscrip­ tion "Christo et Eeclesiae," on the old Harvard seal, meant, he replied that he was not entirely clear in his mind .about it, but he had heard it meant "To h wid Yale." This time-hon­ ored joke explains the curiously pro­ fane suggestiveness of Dr. Francis Peabody's reply to one who met him in company with Dr. Edward Everett Hale on their way to a Harvard-Yale football game on Soldier's field, and asked "Whither bound?" "To the football game, of course," Peabody cheerfully responded--"to yell with Hale."--Buffalo Commercial. McKlnbty nl a Reporter. ( During one of his congressional cam­ paigns he was followed from place to place by a reporter for a paper of op­ posite political faith, who is described as being one of those "shrewd, per­ sistent fellows who are always at work, quick to see an opportunity, and skilled in making the most of it." While Mr. MfeKinley was annoyed by the misrepresentation to which he was almost daily subjected, he could not help admiring the skill and persistency with which he was assailed. His ad­ miration, too, was not unmixed with compassion, for the reporter was ill, poorly clad, and had an annoying cough. One nigh't Mr. McKinley took a closed carriage for a near-by town at which he was announced to speak. The weather was wretchedly raw and cold, and what followed is thus de­ scribed: He had not gone far when he heard that cough, and knew that the report^* w»s riding with the driver in the exposed seat. The major called to the driver to stop, and alighted. "Get down off that seat, young man," he said. The reporter obeyed, thinking the time for the major's vengeance had come. "Here," said Mr. McKinley, taking off his overcoat, "you put on this overcoat and get into that'car­ riage." "But, Major McKinley," said the reporter, "I guess you don't ,know who I am. I have been with you every time you spoke and 1 am going over tonight to rip you to pieces if I can." "I know," said Mr. McKinley, "but you put on this coat and get inside, and get warm so that you can do a good job." --Chautauquan. A Clergyman's Discovery. Fredericksburg. Ind., Dec: 2.--Ac­ cording to the positive declaration of Rev. E, P. Stevens of this place, that gentleman has found a remedy for all diseases of the kidneys and urinary organs. For years he suffered severely with these complaints, incontinence of the urine, making life a burden to him, but he never ceased experimenting in the hope that some day he would dis­ cover a remedy. After many failures he has at last succeeded and is today perfectly cured and a well man. and explains that his recovery is due to the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills. This rem­ edy has been successfully applied to many cases of Lame Back, Rheuma­ tism, Bright's Disease, Diabetes and other Kidney Diseases and there seema to be no case of the kind that Dodd's Kidney Pills will not cure. This is the only remedy that has ever cured Bright's Disease. Substitute for Snlphar Water. The eminent French chemist Ar- mand Gauter has reported a discovery to the French Academy of Sciences which is likely to prove of great hygi­ enic value. He has found that finely powdered volcanic stones treated by boiling in water at a temperature of 270 to 300 degrees Celsius yield a liquid identical in composition with the ordi­ nary sulphur water of mineral springs except that it is stronger than the latter.

T h e G r e a t e s t C o n s o l i d a t i o n o f BIG MINES IN COLORADO JM OF THESE MiNWS have shown large ore bodies and produced high grade oros. Three large Tunnels will open nearly 100 f ines at a depth ^ m • of from 000 feet to 2.000 feet. One of these mines has produced about $2,000,000.00 and many others from *100,000.00 to $400,000.00. Only one of these mines is over 400 feet deep, leaving us 1,000 feet of stoping ground in the main ore bodies, from our tunnel level. In a short time we expect to bave the greatest ore reserves in the history of mining-- " T h e A r g e n t i n e G o l d B e l t " ami the big lead-silver belt are side by side at this point. We own about 8,000 feet by 0,000 feet, covering these two famous mineral belts at their most productive points. „ We arc not looking for norexpocting to find ore, but we have large or© Doales now ®re opening them at greater depth bv*our tunnela. The ores of the company run from f40.00 to 11,900 per ton. The average of all ore shipped from our district last yo&r was $100.00 por ton; tne highest average in Colorado. ^ ^ * We not only own the three large tunnels--the Stevens, the Tobin and the Argentine --hut we own the mines along the tunnels. Our company has the strongest endorsement ever given a mining proposition from Bankers, Ore buyers. County officials. Chamber of Commerce, and prominent business men.
