tndidate for Marriage Got Into the
Wrong Place.
.Fin athltio young man, who was on
the way to get his marriage license,
found himself at last in a room where;
mists matter of fact, eiuididates for the
*Wee 2e+ree werebeing examined.
The mon exit he entered the room the
surgeon said, "Strip!"
"What's that?". said the astonished
young fellow.
"Get your clothes off," replied the sur-
f n- r ^a'- ,s
33'0, did so, andhis chest measurement
eras taken.
Next the surgeon said, "Jump, over
-+ibis horizontal bar."
Re tried the leap, but fell to the
ground.
"Double up your kneee," commanded
Um surgeon, "'and touch the boor with
your hands."
.again he tried and failed.
"Now run around the room ten times."
The young man rebelled. "That I'll not.
'd rather remain single."
"Single?" eaid the doctor.
"Fes, single. I'd like to know what all
this has to do with getting my marriage
license."
And then his mistake as to the room
las solved!

Regulating the Casting.
German scientists have discovered in
the cooling of cant iron that the inane -
nese flows from the gray iron, and the
ease -hardening can be definitely settled
at a point in the refrigeration of the
iron, The crystallization varies to such
an extent that polished surfaces of the
perpendicular side of the casting vary
from the vertical side. By pouring the
casting from one side the softest part
of the casting can be regulated, as can
the hardest.

In a little village on the Hungarian
frontier, not far from Pressburg, a pens-

1 She promptly deposited it in the focal
branch of the Post Office Savings Blink,

PARADISE FISHES.
Nine at the Aquarium From the Other
Side of the World.
Capt. Percy Watson, of the steamship
Muneaster Castle, has presented to the
Aquarium nine little paradise fishes,
each about an inch and a half in length,
which he brought with him on his last
voyage from China and Japan to this
port. They had been four months in the
jar in which they were thus brought,
over many seas, from half way around
the world, but with proper care they
were landed hero in good condition.
The A uariuxn has recently received
from lt. E. Van Keuren, of Honesdale,
Pa, a pair of adult paradise fishes, the
male of which, considerably the larger of
the two, is about three and a half'inches
long. The female of this pair has de-
posited eggs since it was received here,
and the male is now, after . the wanner
of its kind, guarding the ,mest.
The male paradise fish isnot only the
larger but the more strikingly marked.
It has a golden pellow band with, narrow
pale blue bands. At the point of each
gill cover is a bright green spotwith an
orange line around the outer edge. Its
fine are long and delicate and feathery
and marked with the same coleys as. the
body, while some of their spines:: project
beyond the fins in slender ailantents of
green or blue. A beautiful little fish is

Deaths --Mortality Increasing ,
During the first three and a half
months of 1007 the deaths from the
plague in India totalled 494,000, the
heaviest monthly mortality yet reported
during the epidemic. According to the
Indian World this would appear to show
that the present year will exhibit a re-
cord number of deaths.
The plague records for the ten years
Oetober, 1896, to December, 1900, show
that there was a large annual increase
from 1901 to 1904, the deaths numbering
274,00Q in 1901, 577,000 in 1962, 567,000
in 1903 and 1,022,000 in 1904, the worst
year in ten years.
There was a small decrease in 1905,16
the deaths falling to 951,000, and a large."
decrease in 1906, when there were only
332,000, The total deaths for the whole
ten years numbered 4,411,212. The im-
provement wbioh was shown in the two
years 1905 and 1906 has not, unfortu-
nately, been ' maintained.

When the President May Make an Arrest.
Our diplomacy has always been mark-
ed by a refreshing republican simplicity
of speech. Tbo fifth ease is, of course,
the recall of Senator Dupuy de Lome,
just prior to the war with Spain, for
having unwisely: criticised the adminis-
tration in a letter to a friend,
The recall of De Irujo, though, was
marked by an unusual circumstance, At
the request of the Spanish Government,
actuated by a desire to avoid scandal, the
State Department had arranged that.
Irujo should depart quietly, as though
his recall had not been demanded; but
being a surly specimen of his race, he
lingered on and on, becoming more and
more a thorn in the side of the adminis-
tration. To hints he was dumb, and
when ordered away defiantly replied
that he 'would suit his own pleasure in
going; acourse of action which resulteli,
in the enactment of a statute empower,,
ing the President to arrest and aorta'• ,

COST OF LONDON FOG,
Metropolitan Soot Makes the English-
man hose Much.
The annual cost of the pall of fog,,
which overhangs London has been esti-
mated to be $20,000,000, and this is said
to Ibe entirely due to the presence of
soot in the air. The annual loss from
sooty chimneys alone hoe been figured
up at $10,000,000. Theproblem of dfs-'
pensing with this: great 'has
been struggled with for a great many '
years and in all probability the famous
London .fog will be conquered in the'
near future, The latest scheme in this
direction is a coal substitute which lis '
being introduced with some success in
the English metropolis. It le not, strict-
ly speaking a substitute, for it is a 1
preparation of coal itself which is strict-
ed in suoh a manner that the impurities I
are entirely removed so that combustion
in the furnace or stove is aceompliehed
without giving off soot or smoke.

Aeronauts in the Sea,
It is not a little remarkable that although
scores of balloons have been driven out to
sea, oases in which this misadventure has
ended fatally are few.
More than a century ago, when Major
Money made an ascent from Norwich, he
was compelled to descend in the seem, vrhere
he remained for seven hours until hie plight '
was seen and he was rescued by the cre-Y of
a revenue cutter. Some years later, 1n 18.12,
James Sadler, narrowly weaned drowning to
an atteanpt to cross the Irish Channel; his
balloon dropped into ,the Water some stiles
off Liverpool and he was on the point of
succumbing when rescue came in the norm
of a Dishing boat.
In a similar attempt a isZr. Crosbie was
saved when ,almost in extremis many miles
from the English coast. Lunar 1, in 1185,
