Tue greatO part of its reveeuc is raised by taxing and values. Referring to this, Mr. John F ,rro1, of the Sydney (New South Wales):Daily Tele- graph,says:- 0 "In New Zealand the prog`sessive land value tax has had splendid'= results, in revenue producing, in cheapnei of colleen tion, and in causing lands to b;$ opened for use on easier terms than formcMy. "Quite a rush of emigration from the other colonies' consequently in, and settlement upon th land is'; proceeding very rapidly. The Government of New Zealand is now being "run" let the labor members, of whom there werefa sufficient number returned at last election to hold the balance of power. They t ave used a great opportunity wisely and ;;�'soberly for the general advancement ; thfiks largely to the educational influence on .Che popular mind of Sir George Grey's legislative effort' and public utterances. "Lately a declaration from e'v Zealand trades unionists has been made Lto the effect that the problem ot land settlertient is the problem of labor, and that in tgair opinion the bulk of public revenue, if now all, should be derived from land values. That is the feeling not only of the most intelligent of the New Zealand working class, but of many of the leading public men, whose views on the subject are even more advanced. "In my opinion, all the Austielian colo- nies are almost uniformly advancing toward free ports and borders, the derivation of revenue from land values, and towards complete federation."

The New York papers say that Alejandro Luna, a Spanish mechanic, 24 years old, is constructing a perpetual motion machine, which he intends to exhibit at the world's fair in Chicago. Luna is a son of a hat manufacturer at. Jerey de la. Frontere. He has made perpetual motion a study of his life, and he says he baa attained it in a modified form in halt a dozen machines. The machine now nearing completion is a combination of the features of all the other inventions, and Luna is positive that it will work without the slightest bit of trouble when he gets it done. Luna came to the United States five months ago for the sole purpose of building the machine. He is a graduate of the school of mechanics and watchmakers at Besancon. He says his father keeps him plentifully 'supplied with money. although he has not the slightest idea what he,is doing in this country. He intends to surprise his parents. An inven- tion of young Luna is a. clock which, be- sides telling the local time, will also tell the time in twenty-sik other cities in differ- ent parts of the earth, the movement of the tides, positions Of sun and moon and the day of the week, month and year. This' clock Luna made in Spain, but he bronght it here in pieces and then put it together. The clock is now nailed up in a big packing case and it will be sent to the managers of the World's Fair in a few days. The Ancient Forests of Denmark. The peninsula of Jutland constitutes an area about two-thirds of the present kingdom of Denmark. Though :the eastern part is fertile and timbered,the rest was an almost unbroken desert, which, until re- cently, was covered with dreary dark brown heather, or bare sandy downs with quaggy hogs, These extensive forlorn tracts were only varied at wide intervals by narrow streaks of green meadow along the few winding water courses and the widely -scattered hokses, bleak and bare in these most favored neighborhoods. That such forests once covered Jutland, is indicated by the numerous places whose names; embody such words as tree, forest, grove' oak, and birch. This belief is cor- roborated by the oaken coffins and utensils found. in the ancient heather -covered burial mounds, and proved by the numerous triinkh o'f birch and pine wood standing on their roots deep below the bottom of the bogs. But as early as the times of the Valde- mars, the, renowned Danish kings in the twelfth and fourteenth centuries, the Jut- land forests were fast disappearing through ignorant waste and improvidence of the in- habitants, and -giving room to shrubby copses and ultimate deserts, which for cen- turies held undisputed sway over Jutland's KM square miles.

The simplest way of producing light is by means of the combustion, of some oompound of carbon. It does not matter whether the carbon ooa- pound is solid, as in a candle, or a fluid, es in a lamp, or is a gas, as in ordinary illu- minating gas—the process is the same. The union of the carbon of the substance with the oxygen of the air produces the rapid vi- bration that the eye recognizes as light. Carbon, though the element usually em- ployed, mployed, is not a necessary factor, for mag- nesium, potassium, iron—indeed, almost any of the elements—will take its place. Neither is oxygen a necessary part in the production of light. Chlorine will produce an even more -brilliant light with certain substances. It is evident, therefore, that the rate of vibration;, and not the element employed is the principal factor in produc- ingfight. Unfortunately all the methods of roduoing light by means of chemical co binations, snob es the union of the car- bon of the Dandle with the oxygen of the air, are t000mpanied by a very large pro- duction of heat waves, which, in the major- ity of cases, are utterly useless, if not ab- solutely troublesome. The old simile of a musician desiring to produce a certain high note being compelled to press down all the keys of his instrument is an apt one. The lower notes are not merely useless, but they are positively annoying. Singularly! enough, the first solution of the problem! that was attempted success fully was by the aid of heat. A very small amount of light waves are required for re- cognition by the wonJerfully developed special sense which man possesses. It is intensity, not quantity, that is wanted, to use a technical term. Consequently if a very small particle is heated to incandt s- cenee the light which it throws out bears a far greater ratio to the amount of heat re- quired than it does if a large mass is simi- larly heated. This is out of the radical basis of the utility of the incandescent light. An extremely small filament is heat- ed to incandescence through the resistance which it offers to the flow of an electric current. It generates heat, it is true, but the amount of heat thus produced is.direct. ly proportional to the mass of the carbon, which is very small. The light produced, however, is amply sufficient for all ordinary purposes. This solution, however, is highly unsatis- factory to scientists, however useful it is to the public at large. Light apart from heat altogether was wanted. The firefly, the phosphorescent sea animalcules and even the exhausted tubes of Goissler furnished the hope that there was yet some method of reaching the high note without pressing down the whole keyboard. Recently an extraordinary genius has appeared in this country who seeths upon the verge of discovering, if not to have actually discovered, a method by which this might be done. Nicola Tesla, a man of in- dependent fortune and most brilliant mind, who was for a time connected with Edison, has dared to experiment with rapidly al- ternating electric currents. The result has surpassed the wildest dreams of the theor- izers. He has succeeded in producing light of comparatively high intensity without the production of heat, and apparently directly by the use of electricity. The halls of the Royal Soniety of London and of the Franklin -Institute, of Philadelphia, have been illuminated by means ot the light radiated from copper wires in the open air carrying these so-called Tesla cur- rents. The wires were not hot, but they radiated from their surface light and sent from one to another bands of streamers of the mysterious light which we see in the aurora borealis. The effect must be seen to be thoroughly appreciated, but when it is stated that the experimenter without difficulty succeeded in radiating light not only from an exhausted glass tubo held in hand, bus also from his thumb, his nose and other features, the enthusiasm which swept over his audiences in London and in Phila- delphia may be appreciated. As yet no useful application has boon found for these wonderful new developments in electrical scienoe, but they should be welcomed as a harbinger of further progress.—Baltimore Sun. Petrified Humanity. Another' instance of the complete petrifac- tion of a human body is reported, this time at Carlyle, Ill. The remains of John Rus- sell, who was buried there six years ago, were exhumed and were found changed to stone, the features and form being faith- fully preserved. The process by which , nature effects this change is but imperfectly understood and could not, perhaps, with the present state of knowledge, be accom- plished at will by human agency. We have here by the chemistry of nature a preser- vative process that throws . into the shade even the wonderful skill of the ancient Egyptians. Some dismal and un- healthy philosopher, appalled because the humah aemblance, differing in all instances from all others, must be forever lost at death, has suggested that bodies be trans- ported to the north pole and piled in blocks of ice for future reference on judg- ment day. The petrifaction process would be less visionary and might be applied only to the great people of the earth. The only trouble would be in deciding who the really great were. If individuals 'themselves had any say in the matter the world would be so piled with old lumber in two or three years that there would be no room left for the living.

Some of the prettiest bathrooms are fitted out in pure white, with no touch of color save the blue and white tiles which cover the side walls above the high colonial wainscoting of white enamel. In place of genuine tiling, these bathrooms are often fitted up with French tile paper, which is the most perfect imitation that we have of the blue -and -white mixture or the French tile. This paper costs $1.50 a roll, but like all other French papers, the roils are con- siderably larger than -„the lordinary roll of paper. In these new bathrooms the wainscoting of white enamelled wood takes up about half the wall. The remainder is finished with the tile . paper or tiling. The ceiling is finished sometimes with the same paper and sometimes with a broad, flat cornice of enamelled wood at the sides, while the center is papered with plain white tiles, showing a crackled daze, such as is characteristic of fine oriental por- celain. The window of such a bathroom is finished with white crackled glass, set in -leaded pattern. The tint is of white enamel, set in white woodjwith the plumb- ing exposed.

She must expect rebuffs and will still stiok t.. it. Be not discouraged.

She must be ever in the think: of the fight, and unless she goes forth prepared to stand by her colors the host of wage earners will sweep over her prostrate form and she will be forgotten in the great struggle for existence.

I've been doing woman's work for at least a week or more And I'lj own it isn't anything like fun ; For when you try to think that your labor's nearly o'er, You will often find you've only just begun. There is boiling, and there's bakieg There Is sweeping and bed -making, And a thousand other things not understood By a novice snob as I, And so I won't dont That I would not be a woman 111 could. This is how it came about : My wife was taken sink ; No help was to be had, so like a dunce, I thought I'd try my hand, but I found out quick That I couldn't think of everything at once. The fire was slowly dying When I put the steak a frying, And the cat was making havoc with the bread I had prepared for toasting, Wh"le the apple that was roasting Was a plaything for the pug upon the bed. When I went to wash the dishes I found the kettle drTho spout w smelted off, and on the floor It lay a perfect wreok, that awoke a pensive sigh As 1 thought upon the happy days of yore. I reflected on the blies Of domestic scenes like this, And I couldn't hit on any other plan. It might be called bewitching, Rut the work done in the kitchen Is not within the scope of common man. So, 1'd like to mention this to every friend and neighbor, That woman's work is never overdrawn ; My respect is something greater for the housewife's daily labor Since the trials I have lately undergone, Their woes are not mis-etated, For I're been initiated, And I'm bound to help them every time I can. There's a recompense in doing What alone is worth pursuing, And woman's loving labor is a blessing unto man. —George W. Shipman, in Exchange. very Nasturtiums as House Plants. Nasturtiums will live but bloom sparing- iy in a sunny room, where the temperature at night falls sometimes to or below the freezing point. It has been found, how- ever, that, neutral tinted nasturtiums, a comparatively recent triumph of floricul- ture, not only need more water than the ordinary nasturtium, but also are much more sensitive to cold. One such plant was destroyed in a temperature that had no. visibly injurious effeot upon nasturtiumr bearing blossoms of brighter hues. School Reports.

By the use of the common pruning knife, or saw, it is difficult to cut the suckers from the limbs ten or fitteen feet from the ground. A long time ago there was made, iu New Jersey, an implement quite like the one shown in the il- lustration. It was, no doubt, made by a country blacksmith, and is called the chisel pruner. The upper concave edge is Ares inches across. When this is attached to a heavy pole, eight or ten feet in length, there is no difficult in cutting off a limb nearly an inch in diameter located ten or twelve feet from the ground. The hook which forms the lower part of the chisel is used for pulling the loosened branches from the trees. It is well, also, to have this concave portion ground to a cutting CHISEL i'RtiNER.. edge, that it may be used in cutting off small{ branches, or those not readily managed by an upward movement. This arrangement can be made by any blacksmith, and, instead of a hollow shank, make it fiat, to be bolted to the pole. The accompanying illustration gives a good idea of the shape and general appearance of this useful implement. Some skill is needed to manage this chisel pruner properly. The bark of other limbs should not be cut or bruised, and the. branch should not be cut so close that the bark of the trunk will peel from the large wound. Each limb should be completely severed with one out, and not partly broken, leav- ing splinters and lacerated bark. The limb should be cut close enough that a large stub will not remain to be covered, in a de- cayed condition, by the ingrowing bark. Branches broken by strong winds can be quickly removed by this implement. The Discoveries Nicola Tesla is Giving the World. Almost from the, time that the vibratory theory of light was accepted scientific men have looked forward to the day when it would be possible to produce light with- out heat. For it is an unfortunate fact that so far every effort to produce light has been aoopmpanied by an enormous waste of "Seal Brand" Coffee At the World's fair.

There wan, a dead silence. " Will some gentleman in the audience favor me with a pint flask of whisky ?" asked the professor, advancing to the front of the platform. There was no response, and things were becoming embarrassing. " Surely," he .aid, " in a Southeastern Kentucky community I ought not to have to ask the second time for such a thing. I pledge you my word I will return it unin- jured. Is there no—" " Stranger," spoke up a tall, gaunt, hard featured man on the front seat, " wouldn't a quart flask do just as well?"
