COULD RUN MOTOR 100 HOURS
Great Power of Electricity in R11"
Man Body.
One does not fancy the human
body as an electric dyna-mo, but if
the heat and rauscular energy ex-
peeded by an average man of sed-
entary habits were converted into
electrical units he would find him-
self iu possession of quite a valu-
able asset.
It is proved that a man uses up
about two and one-half kilowatt
hours of electrical energy in a
working day. Approximately one-
half of this amount is used to keep
the temperature of the body con-
stant, while the other half is ex-
pended in muscular energy.
This amoant of electricity may
not seem great, but, says a writer
in the Popular Mechanics Maga-
zine, it is sufficient to maintain four
twenty -five -watt tungsten lamps of
twenty candle-power each of twen-
ty-five hours; run a sewing machine
motor for one hundred hours; heat
an electric toaster for four hours;
an electric heater for two hours;
an electrie curling iron for one hun-
dred hours; run a large fan for
thirty-two hours, or warm a chaf-
e ing dish for six hours.
Wise Sayings.
• Business is baidde.noe on money,
but on honesty.—Dr.'Ambrose
Shepherd.
When a man prophecies a thing
and it happens, one is always ready
to believe that he did his best to
make it happen.—A. A. Milne.
The churches would be as full as
the restaurants at one o'clock i,n
the day if men realized that they
were spiritual beings.—Rev. J.
Halsey.
Those who squander are not the
possessors of wealth; the absence
of means very often carries with it
a careless prodigality. — Violet
Tweedale.
We take care of our health; we
lay up money; but who provides
wisely that he shall not be wanting
in the best property of all—friends
—Emerson.
That women are lees amenable to
discipline than men is the conse-
quence of man's treatment of wo-
man as toy, chattel, or inferior.—
A. Maurice Low.
Secrets of Success.
Concentration is one of the great
secrets of success. Some one has
said that if you will sit down to a
task and apply yourself to it for
half an hour without allowing one
thought of what you are going to
do next, one thought of what you
have accomplished, one moment of
dreaming of alien things, to creep
linto your mind, without permit-
ting yotirsell one glance out of the
window, one instant of toying with
things near at hand, you ean do
an average person's hour's work in
that half hour.

Tasteful RotsPots.
The hot-poe ought to be a favor-
ite dish in this country when all its
good points are weighed. These
are mainly economy of fuel, time
and material. When one comes to
economy of material it is difficult to
exhaust its merits. At least ,no-
thing is wasted, aed all the good
features of a stew or braise may
be embodied in a hot -pot. The less
fat the better; all meat should be
trimmed from superfluous fat and
rautton from skin also. A steady
heat is essential, and tendency to
buns is obviated by placing the dish
in water.
Beef Plot -pots. --Beef hot -pots are
limitless in kind ; the recipe below
justifies the title, being the embodi-
ment of savor and. excellence. Slice
evenly some meat, fiat -ben it with
the rolling pin and spread with a
tasty mince from chicken, a little
bacon (not too fat), a few drops of
anion juice, breaderumbs and sea-
soning, moistened with milk. Roll
the- slices and pack them in a dish
lined with boiled beans. Pour over
the slices of meat a little stock,
then eover with tomato sauce. Two
pounds of meat and two cupfuls of
sauce, will make a good-sized pot.
New cover with mere beans, tb.en
with a greased paper, then put on
the lid and eook in the oven. Serve
piping hot, with a napkin pinned
round the dish. Time according to
the meat, from two to three hours.
Mutton I:Lot-pots. — Mutton hot -
pots are variable in flavor. For a
really good one loin cutlets with a
gravy flavored with red currant
jelly stand out prominently. The
top and bottom may consist of
beans as above or a macedoine of
vegetables, or a puree of potatoes,
with braised carrots added at the
finish, will be found very tasty.
When rice or other starchy food is
introduced extra are against burn-
ing is needed. Parboiled macaroni
covered with grated cheese is a top
dressing liked by many, or the
-cheese omitted, and the macaroni
cooked in a good gravy will be more
to the taste of others.
Scotch Itut-pot.—Cut up a couple
of pounds of mutton and fill up the
dish thus: At the bottom a good
layer of sliced carrots, the outer
part grated, chopped onions, pars-
14,qelery and thinly sliced tur-
nips; t now the meat and barley

minutes before sending to table add
a top layer of cooked macaroni. If
brushed over with meat extract at
the last moment the appearance is
improved.
Calf's Head Hot-pot.—In bygone
days pies from calf's head, with
other savory ingredients, were
among the standing dishes. Hot -
pots on similar lines are equally in-
viting and have the charm of nov-
elty for most people. Supposing the

C 0 CKNEY DIALECT.
Canon Horsley Tells of Some Inter-
esting Experiences.
During his long associations with
the poor children of South London,
Canon HOrsley has been much in-
terested ansi amused bif their extra-
ordinary pronunciation of words.
"Frequently," he says, in his re-
minisoenees, "I Renzereber," "I
write on the blackboard some
phrases I have heard in the school-
room or the street aceording to its
Walworth pronunciation, and then
invite some boy or girl to- write tb,e

reetions, thongh fearfully Puzzled

with the local whine and vowel

cognize 'I've been to take her
home'; 'I've been having a game';
'Baby's name -is Jarnes—plain
James'; 'I'rn not going' • 'I haven't
hacl any cake'; 'Oh, shale hands';
'Rose is late.'"
Canon Horsley also mentions
that one of his daughters saw in a
local draper's window some ties and
desired to buy one for her brother.
Going in, she said: "I want to see
some ties, please. "This way for
corsets, miss." "No, I said ties—
neckties." "Oh, I beg your par-
don, miss, I thought you said

Concerning slang used by the
London urchin, the Canon gives
some amusing examples. "Needle
thread" for bed, "You and me" for
tea, "Tim Skinner" for dinner,
"Cain and Abel" for table, "Cri-
mea" for beer, "Brussels sprout"
for boy scout are somewhat com-
mon. Other terms new to the Can-

RING GEORGE'S LIBRARY.

King George possesses one of the
finest collections of naval books and
pamphlets that have ever been got
together. Formerly his library has
been kept at York Cottage, but it
is now being transferred to Wind-
sor, where a specially fitted -up
room has been provided for it. His

embraces the fleets of almost every
country in the world, and is in a
diversity of languages. "
There is nothing affecting- the sea

$10,000 Collar Develops
Acute Mania.
The. Egyptians embalmed their
dead for the purpose of preserving
the bodies for the day of resurrec-
tion, placed 3,000 years ahead;
hence the most terrible calamities
were to be visited upon the heads
of any irreverent enough to inter-
fere in any imanner with the pro-
gramme. The case is cited by the
lid of a sarcophagus, now in the
British Museum, which has engrav-
ed upon it the effigy of a priestess
of Amen -Ra, This was discovered
in 1889 and trouble began at once.
The five men who found the cover
died all within a short time of each
other; the men .who transported it
from its place -of discovery were
likewise unfortunate in various
ways while the servant who took

series of disasters. -
Wonderful Dagger.
The late Shah of Persia possess-
ed a dagger which, according to
tradition, -would make invincible
whoever concealed it about his
clothing, but if once used the per-
son using it would die by it. It is
said that this dagger is one of the
oldest in the Orient and bas been
"used" but five times in history—
always justifying the prophecy that
it would likewise cause the death of
the user.
In 1906 a business man in St.
Petersburg acquired at an auction
sale a con ,r for which he paid $10,-
000. It had been made 120 years
earlier by a Parisian jeweller at
the order of the unfortunate Louis
XVI. Every member of the royal
family who had worn this collar
perished in the French Revolution
and the man who first purchased
it fled to Brussels and sold it in ihat
city to get money for his soj)ur
in exile. Subsequently it changed
ownership frequently, always
bringing misfortune to its pos es -
Dancer's Misfortune.
Finally it was sold to a Russian
prince for $20,000 and he gave it
to the dancer Tzukki. The dancer
lost her health and was tompelled
to part with it and it passed into
the collection of Linievitch. This
man died suddenly at Monte Carlo
and his heir lost the collar and ev-
erything else he possessed in play.
The man who then purchased the
collar (in 1906) lived in the greatest
liarmeny with his wife and family,
but almost at once developed acute

RAZORS FROM. HORSESHOES.
Chinese Manufacturers Make Them
at Small Cost.
Chinese manufacturers are still
on a. basis of the most primitive
handicraft; an efficiency engineer
would surely find the occupation of
a lifetime in bringing them up to
Western etanclarols. The produc-
tion of cutlery, for example, is thus
deecribed by Consul General Kna-
benshue of Tientsin.
An interesting feature of Chin e
es
industry is the making of knives
and razors from old horseshoes.
The local blacksmiths in the inter-
ior cities end towns supply the
great population of the empire with
knives, ra,zors and scissors of ati in-
ferior quality at a very small cost.
This cutlery comes from small
shops, where only orie or two eke
are employed, usually the proprie-
tor and his sons,, and is chiefly raa,de
from old ' herseshoes, imported
from England and the Continent,

LEFT A NASTY,
DRY COUGH.
Doctors Could Do No Good.
••••••••••••...
Mrs. A, Illainwright, St. Mary's, Ont.;
Writes;—"I feel it my duty to write and
tell you the good your Dr. Wood's Not -
way Pine Syrup did for my little boy.
Fie had whooping cough, which left him
with a nasty, dry hard cough. I took
him to several doctors, but they did hitr,..
no good, and I could see my little
failing day by day. I was advised to take
him to another doctor which I did, and
he told me he was going into a decline,
I was telling a neighbour about it, and
she told me to get a bottle of Dr. Wood's
Norway Pine Syrup, and give it to him
regularly. She then got to tell me hew
much good it did her children, so I got a
bottle, and gave it to my little boy, and.
was so pleased with the result that I
bought another one, and by the time he
had linished it he had no cough. He it
now fat and strong, and I would not be
without a bottle in the house on any
account!'
Whooping cough generally begins as a
common cold, accompanied with cough‘
ing and a slight discharge from the nose.
It is, as a rule, more of a child's trouble
but also affects adults.
Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup is

NEW IDEAS FOR VENTILATION
In Large Buildings Aim Is to Get
Uniform Conditions.
In the erection of big buildings it
has been the aim of the engineers,
in modern times, to secure condi-
tions of uniforin temperature, uni-
form air pressure and uniform at-
mospherie moisture and ventilation
without drafts, says Harper' s
Weekly,but now a couple of Eng-
lish engineers have oome to the con-
clusion, after a careful study of the
subject, that this aim is not in ace
cord with the true physiological
needs of the human race.
They point out that in nature the
ekin conies in contact with constant
physical and chemical changes.
There are variations it temperature
.and in peessure caused by the
breeze; there are differences in: ele
amount of moisture and variation
in the, flow of the blood to the skin.
The writer says that the English
House of Commons is ventilated by
a stream of air that is taken from'
over the river and passed above
spray of water and thence over
steam pipes which heat it to a uni-
form temperature of eixty-three de-
grees Fahrenheit, allowing it to en-
ter through the floor without caus-
ing a draft. When the House "di••
vides" for a vote the members pass
into the lobbies. At the same time .
the air current is turned off from
the chamber and passed to pipes
leading to the kbbies.
Strangers visiting the House, es-
pecially persons from rural or from
colonial regions, find the air here
very depressing. This depression,
say the experts, results not from
the particular temperatiere, nor
from the condition of the air with
respect to oxygen, etc., but to the
fact of the uniform conditions to ,
which the skin is exposed. "
The nerves in our skin need to be
stimulated. Absolute rest is not
congenial. Ibis for -ehis reason that
the smoke from a cigarette is fre-
quently a , relief or that a very
small quantity c,f ozone is so brae
-
ing in shops or factories or schools.
The ozone is helpful not so Much
because it supplies oxygen—for if
present in quantities sufficient to
be smelled it is a poison—nor be-
cause it destroys organic matter; it
is helpful because of its delicate
stiniulation of a nervous system
that is tired of doing,:nothing.
Quite Different.
