To Utilize Wave Power.
A caveat for improvement in ocean
• wave motors Inas been filed with the
nei,, commissioner of patents • by S. A. Lef-
fingweil, of Coronado Beach, through
his attorney, Clara Foltz. The object of
the invention is to convert the forces of
'the waves of the ocean into a motive
Bower for driving uitwhanery on shore
.for electric lighting, etc.
This is accomplished lisy means of a
float placed in the open sea. In the float
are tubes extending to s depth of thirty
oenforay feet below sea level. open at the
`b atom and closed at the top in such a
'manner as to retain a pressure of air.
At thetop of each tube is a valve open-
ing to admit air into the tube and closing
.against an outward current.
There is also a valve opening into a
` pressure reservoir through which air
anay•pass out, corresponding to the vale
ear•of an ordinary pinup. 13y this ar-
aangement air is pumped into the reser-
voir with a pressure suitable for driving
nn engine located on the float and eon-
mected with a dynamo converting the
go'0ver into electricity. The electricity

fo'r•use in deep sea a mile from shore.

A Milky W'ay.
I learned the other day that the big.
milk supply companies of the, city found
it necessary to exercise a surveillance
over their drivers, but it has been al -
:ready reduced to an elaborate system.
An experienced and dishonest driver can
start out with fifty gallons of milk in-
spected pure at the depot, and from the
supply deliver sixty-five gallons, the
fifteen gallons •accruing to his own profit,
and being secured by judicious watering
at various pointson the route. Before the
discovery of this practice some of the
drivers had a regular run of customers
ri of whom their employers knew nothing.
'The companies' inspectors now go about
the city at random, and, following a de-
livery of milk, as .soon as the driver is
genie subject it to an inspection with the
lactometer. If it has been watered that
driver is discharged, and, by an agree -
anent with the other dairy companies, he
.cannot enter the employ of any of them.

To turn to that feature in Lord Chester,
field's life which has impressed itselt
moat strongly on the world at large—his
relations with his son—we find that, for
the last quarter of his life, Lord Chester-
field lived almost entirely for his son (the
issue of a liaison with a French women
of the flame of Du Bouchet), • This young,
person. is touch to be pitied. He is one
of the most eminent victims of parental
ambition, the determination that is, to
Iuake a son what you think you would
like hien to be, nal lilat he was Dorn to
he, What Philip Stanhope in101
e mi
tt have
been, we aced not waste our time in
guessing, Nothing very striking, prob-
ably. At best, he seems to have shown
signs of being an inferior Gibbon; his
father is always telling him that he
spends too much time over his books, so
that probably he had a real taste for eru-
dition, But that was not at all Lord
Chesterfield's idea oed of a man, "The clois-
tered
s-
tered pedant," "the illiberal pedant," is
the object of his unceasing scorn. He
determined that ,his son should lead the
same sort of life that he had led, but be
so much more successful in that he should
have had the advantage of all Lord Ches-
terfield's experience.
Unfortunately, the scheme of educa-
tion which ho devised was far from well
adapted to carry out these ideas. At
its root there was a fundamental error,
Lord Chesterfield held u theory, of which
he flattered himself he was a living ex-
ample, that everything except poetry can
be acquired, and, us in one place he
thanks God that neither he nor his sot]
was born to be a poet, for practical pur-
poses lie may be said to have believed
that everything, not merely facts, but
feelings, not only outward habits, but
frames of mind, only waited for a vigor-
ous will to summon•them and take pos-
session. This was a radical error of his,
but he believed it with all his heart and
soul. It is wrong, but nevertheless it
may be a highly useful lesson to teach
while the mind is in its acquisitive stage.
Then it may act as a powerful stimulus,
but it may be abused, and Lord Chester-
field certainly abused it.—Temple Bar.

Joking with Sea Gulls.
Sea birds aro always interesting on-
jects to voyagers. They follow a vessel
`sometimes all the way across, ever rest-
leseand untiring. The gulls particular-
ly, with their long, swift wings, realize
the highest powers of endurance and fly
with eese against the severest storms.
Some say that these birds never visit the
earth except to deposit their eggs; other-
wise they live constantly between the sea
and the sky. In fine weather they fly
high in the air, 'descending with great
rapidity to seize the fishes on the surface
of the water. ,
The symmetry and strength of the
'gulls are remarkable, showing how na-
ture has adapted them in every particu-
lar for the purpose of long flight. Their
pectoral or breast muscles are one solid
mass of firm, hard muscle, and their
bones are hollow, having no marrow in
them. Sleep is not necessary to them,
or, rather, they rest upon their wings
and allow themselves to be cradled by,
the breezes, whose violence neither wor-
ries nor frightens them. On the other.
hand. they seem to feel a fierce delighf
in the fury of the storm, which, con-
vulsing the waves, brings up. the dead
fishes and mollusks. •
Sailors are very fond of playing off a
joke upon the gulls which are always.
hovering about the ships. .They take
three or four pieces of sail twilit: about
six feet in length, these are tied together
in the middle, and to the end .of each a
small piece of blubber or fat is attached
tightly and then thrown into the sea. A
'gull comes along and swallo•s one
piece; another then sees there is plenty
to spare and swallows the next; perhaps
a third bird takes possession of another,
but as they are all attached to the sail
yarns, whenever they try to fly away
one or the other is compelled to disgorge
his share, and this is continued to the
tantalizing suspense of the poor gulls
and the great fun of the passeugers and
sailors.—Ocean.

Nutmegs as a Medicine.
The medicinal qualities of nutmegs
are worthy of a great deal of attention.
Tliey are fragrant in odor, warm and
grateful to the'taste, and possess decided
sedative, astringent and soporific proper-
ties. In. the following affections they
will be found highly serviceable: Gas-
tralgia (neuralgia of tate stomach), chol-
era morbus, flatulent colic, dysentery,
cholera infantum and infantile colic.
In all cases nutmegs may be prepared
for administration in the following man-
ner:
Grate ono or more nutmegs into a fine
powder. For children, give one-sixth to
one-third of a teaspoonful, according to
age, of this powder, mixed with a small
quantity of milk. For adults, from a
half to two teaspoonfuls may be given
in the same way, according to the sever-
ity of the case. Every two hours is
generally the best time to administer
this remedy.
Insomnia (sleeplessnees) is very often
effectually relieved by one or two doses
of nutmeg, when much stronger agents
have signally failed.—New York Jour-
nal.

A Walking Advertisement,
A new profession has been introduced
into the city during the past two years,
which the majority of citizens know
little about. All large prominent houses
nolo hire professional dressers for the
purpose of introducing new styles. You
may have noticed often that some par-
ticular friend of yours who, as you well
know, has no bank account, and does not
seem to work but yet dresses in the
height of fashion, wearing every new
style of hat, clothes, shoes or necktie that
makes its appearance. Well, he in em-
ployed by some house to popularize new
garments by wearing them and making
them familiar to all dressers. He recei res
a salary and frequents all popular re-
sorts; in fact, he lives off of his shape
and looks, as only handsome and well
formed men are eligible to the new pro-
fession.—Merchant Tailor in St. Louis

injurious, The devilishness of the use of
such stuff in candies is all the greater

brought them to the writer for examina-
tion. Tho result of our investigation
showed them to consist entirely of terra

Further investigation developed the fact
that they were simply blocks or forma

the method of use being simply to im-
merse them for a few moments in syrups

refused to pay any damages and the
