The summer when Ilugh Greenwood was eight years old it was decided that ho aught n•,t to go to school for a while, and steel be out in the air of the fields reel tools nearly all of every day. 'floc was why Ilughie was left on his er:iu!Lathcrs Linn when the. rest of the futility went back to the city in the fall. Of course, in a way, Ilughte was glad. Ili, missed father and mother and his s:suers; but being on the farm meant all kinds of outdoor fun which he could not have in the city. What, he wanted most, of alt was to do some trapping. This was because of the gloves, of course. Uncle Norman had given thein to him when the mor!- irugs began to get real sharp and snap- py with cold. They were very warm gloves, made of muskrat fur, and Uncle Norman had .aid that Oliver Bunistead had caught the ntuserats himself, in 1Iughie's grandfather's swamp. Were there any more there? Oh, yes, probably hundreds of them; and some- times there were mink, and now and then, Lul not often, an otter. "\Vhy, just think of it, Uncle Nor- man!" said Ilughle. "If I had souse traps 1 could go down to tate swamp and catch muskrats endugh for a fur coat for mamma and a nice buffulo- rcbe for papal" "\Nelle' said Uncle Norman, "you neight get enough for the fur coat, but I don't, know about the buffalo -robe. It takes an awful lot of muskrat skins to make a buffalo -robe." And then be laughed. But he also said (here were plenty of traps in the shed, and he got some of them down and cleanee them, and showed Bugle() how to set and place therm. 1t was a great day for Hugh when he started out the first time to visit his hne of traits. The sun was bright and the crust of the snow frozen hard, so that walking was easy; but it was very cold. t tell you, those fur gloves felt good then, and so did the woolen inuf- fler which grurdmother had tied about li1_�'ntR, The first trap, to Ihighie's disappoint- ment, held no muskrat, and had not even been sprung, and it was the same :vas, with the second one. The next vv us guile a long way off, and sudden- !; , Lrfonc Ilughie reached it, a big rub - bit jumped out of some bushes and Bushed away into a holo at the roots c; a big tree. The traps were forgotten then, and 1lugh'o rushed to the Tree, and kneeling down, looked into the hole. The rab- bit was nowhere in sight, and so Ilughie pushed his hand In, and then his whole arum, and felt round. dill he could not feel any rabbit, tut his fingers did find a little place, way in, through which he could just push his hand. Perhaps the rabbit had squeezed through. Ile pushed his hand in and felt. No, (here was no rabbit. And then, when he tried to pull his Ilene out, he found he could not, be- r;use his fur glove caught In some - Ming sharp and rough. Ilam felt like --ate 0. Every time he pulled, the glove caught and held fast. Perhaps if he riu1MJ hard it might give way and come aft; but he knew that if it did it would (Imp away Clown ince the hole, and ho would never Fir. it again. If he could only get his knife out and cut the hole bigger, But no. his knife was In his right-hand pocket, anJ it was his right hand that was caught. Ile could stove it back and forth a 'lit- tle way and in and out a Mlle way, but he could not get it free. Ilughie begin 4o feel very cold. When he had been running or walking fast he had felt warm enough, but lying Mill. fare down. In the shadow of the greet Ire trunk, the chill struck through him like n knife. Perhaps he would freeze to death before any one fount It m. The thought set him to shouting, 'Grandpa! Giandpal Grand -p -a -a -a!'' 11 hurt him lo lie still, with his arm stretched out. and he Logan to tear more of his weight on the hand in the hole. Sennething under the hand felt very c"1.1 where his bore wrist rented on it, and then he could feel his hand and sleeve growing wet. After a long lime, as It seemed to 1lugh'e, his firm dhngtel so that ho just hnd t•1 !neve it; and then, to his sur- prise. the hand cane out of the hole with the grate all on it. 1t was some kicks and ragged edges of ice That had caught, end his warm hand, resting on t 'o long. had thawed it enough to act him free. It WAS n very thankful boy who gat n ,t nal walked away. The first thong he did was to no hack nn,l pull up the NO traria he hnd passed.

The ways of the crank with an in- vention aro unaccountable. Here is n recent actual example: A brisk, eager individual culled on a capitalist for the purpose of interesting Lift in u device for discouraging burglars. "I want to get the idea patented," he said, "and 1 haven't any money. I'm willing to go halves with any elan lhat will give me the financial backing. "My scheme is this. You first make ycur doors and windows secure, so that they can't be opened at all from tIn cutside -there aro plenty of devices for (loing that now -a -days. Make all of them tight and fast, except one. LeI ve Iltat one so that it will open easily. Then run a wire from that window to the head of your bed, where you have on alarm -bell. The burglar comes along, tries the doors and windows, and when he comes to that one he seises it. The alarm goes off and the burglar hears It and flees, or it wakes sou up ani you are ready for hint.

K5\\ IST IIlLeCII u11uc1111�L ' I'ropt llor Blades on a Large Wheel al the Middle o1 the Balloon. Tho new.et dirigiblo balloon con- structed in Paris is regarded as creating aerial Ino - ho mutter o[ a 1 it revolution in t tive power. It is the joint product of M. Kluytraans, a Dutch engineer, mud Baron Edmond de Morcay of !'ares. Its (special feature is that the entire driving apparatus is )(teak(' in the body of the balloon at its centre. All the dirigibles previously made had Pie propeller located under the hu•y'(uit body. This had the effect of disturbing couilibriuur; whether Tho fan was ahead or astern, it tended to-forco the balloon into a vertical position. When the pro- peller was attached to the car, as in Tho case of the•I'atrie and the Ville cue Paris, there was an enormous loss of effect owing to the drag of the balloon proper. This had to bo offset by great power in the propeller or else by enormous speed of revolution. The propeller of the Ville de Paris has blades more than ten yards long, which revolve at the rate of 1.40 tarns •a minute; the Patrie's propellor blades were only three 1111(1 one-half yards in length, but they made 1,200 revolutions a minute. Path of these en - pies added enor•rnot.sly to the weight to bo sustained in the air. The Kluytinans-Morcay flying mnchinc is built on the principle laid down by Col. Relined that the .notive tower, sta- bility appliances and helm should all be ns near as possible not only to tate cen- tre of gravity but to the marts of the ban ken. The apparatus consists of two separate cylinders of silk stretched over a steel framework and 11.11 together rat intervals of ntx)ut eight inches by a cen- tre' core and also by strong bar's of steel tent into the shape of the capital letter and extending outward about twenty, inches from the body. In tate interval between the two cylin- ders there is n wheel of the same dia- meter as the body revolving on the cen- tral cora and driven from n suspended motor. The propeller blades are attach - sl to the lire of the wheel and revolve freely within the U shaped braces. The entire balloon, as constructed for ex- perimental Purposes, weighs abut 275 px.unds, not counting the pilot. On a trial it developed a speed exceeding 36 miles an hor' with the fans revolving 70 turns a minute. This trial machine only hal n eopa- ciiy of nbout 159 cubic yards. but one is already begun of 1,500. It will be driven n 30 home -power motor, weighing only S) pounds, and it is expected that it will carry two persons 30 miles an Lour in a wind not exceeding n speed of seven to eight yards n second. The cost of it 13 estimated at $8,000 to $10,- 000. The war sire will be much smaller than the Pattie, not exceeding 1.1400 cubic fret to the Patries 3.300. it will take only half the number of army \\o- pens to transport its.sections in cam- paigning, and it will need only six hours lo inflate it to twelve needed for the Petrie. it will be able to retrain thirty- eie u -s in Uie air.

Ile says that it is doubtful whether even 10 per cunt. of the cases can be attributed to the drinking of polluted or infected water. Ile bee( ves that polluted and infected foals are a i nu'_h more fre- quent source of typhoid illness Ilion is generally supposed. Ile refers to eases which it is impossible to connect with preceding cases, and suggests the pos- sibility of origin from other bacilli than those which are regarded ns the invari- able specific causes of typhoid. Recent investigations in Germany show that paeients may harbor typhoid -bacilli months after recovery from illness, and that persons In good health may bo the hosts of the organism. 4.
