She Successfully Played on the Wenkness of the Statesman. 'The New York Herald tells how a diplomatic young lady who understood the weakness of politicians secured some years ago a place in the state service. The day before the opening of the session a shy girl knocked at the door of the attorney general's office. \Is the attorney gonoral in?\ she < mous pressure. This flattens them and | | draws them out into thin ribbons from | asked timidly, \Yes said the clerk. \He will see you when he gets through with this i long line of job hunters. Just have a seat.\ In the numerous chairs, on the office lounge and standing were 20 more waiting for a turn to press some claim for a position. The attorney general was rather a gruff looking man, and he dismissed each with the remark: \I can't do any- thing for you. Sorry, you know, but there are hundreds of applicants, and each officer, every legislator, hes a dozen begging for each position.\ When the timid girl's turn came, she banded the impatient looking officer a letter. She said nothing. She hardly looked into his face. \I'm sorry, Miss O., that I can do nothing for you. It was foolish for you to come here expecting to get work. I'd be glad to help you if T' could; but, you sco, It's this way: I have no influence to get you a position. I am very\ \We were speaking of that at home, but I thought If would do no harm to see you,\ she interrupted. \And we were saying what a pity it was that, you had lost your influence.\ 'The state official winced. as if something hurt him. \Brown he said, turning to his dep- uty with unnecessary abruptness, \this He looked young lady is to have a position in the ; enrolling department. See that there is a place for her if you have to muzzle every legislator in the building.\ Devastating Power of Locusts, A swarm of these Insects stopped the ; advance of a Russian army. 'They filled the alr and blinded both officers and men, so that the former could give no orders, and even if they had done so the men could not have obeyed them. The horses would not face them, and they lay on the ground many inches thick. Efery man and horse in the army was incrusted with the insects, and their clothing was literally eaten off the men as they stood helpless and blinded. The railways were useless, as the locusts covered the rails, and the , oll which exuded from their bodies when crushed prevented the driving wheels from \biting.\ After they had settled whole regiments were detached for the purpose of trampling them to death, Trenches were dug across their path and filled with burning coals, but the crowding swarms actually smother- ed the fire, so vast were their numbers. Even in a little island like Cyprus in one year oné-fifth of the entire revenue was spent in destroying the locusts, and especially their eggs. When these , eggs are laid, they are inclosed in a horny envelope called a \pod each pod containing 85 eggs. In seven months 1,330 tons of pods were de- stroyed. Now, a single ton of pods contains 60,000,000 eggs, and yet, in spite of this almost incredible destruc- tion, the locusts are still a dreadful plague and show little if any symptoms | of diminution in numbers. Expenses of a Yacht Owner. There is no question that modern lux- ury has reached its most extravagant; pionacle in yachting, which, in the elab- orate profusion of its expense, brings us very cloge to the latter days of the Roman empire.

GILDING '°POWDERS ARE MADE OF COPPER AND SPELTER. f | --- | How the Material That Gives the i Shining, Metallic Finish to Mirror | and Picture Frames Is Produced. | Gold Leaf Without Gold. i { 1 How many persons who see the shin- | adrror and picture frames know that i gold does not enter at all into the com- position of the stuff that produces these ; golden effects? - : The shining metallic effect is pro- ; duced by a fine powder made from a mixture of bronze and spelter. This offers the cheapest and best means of { giving the rich surface demanded in i wall papers, printing, lithography, fres- 3 coing and in a vast range of manufac- : tured articles of wood, paper and iron. | The material used is so called Dutch | metal, an alloy of copper and spelter. i . ! i i The relative proportions are varied to | §produce different colors. The larger . { the percentage of spelter the lighter or | ' more yellowish will be the tint of the : | merate the libels it has written ?\ g‘ alloy. +- 'The copper and spelter are smelted in | graphite crucibles containing about 400 ' pounds of metal, which, when com-; | pletely fused, is run off into molds. | forming half round ingots two feet 'long by half an inch in thickness. Aft- | ; er cooling these are bound into bundles i . and sent to the rolling mill, where they ! 'are passed cold nine times through a { double set of steel rolls under enor- : 50 to G0 feet long and something more ; than one inch wide. wood fire, as the sulphur in coal or ; coke would be injurious to the ribbons. : beyond this he has refuged to make | Having been softened and rendered | 1 ductile by annealing, they are cleansed | ' in an acid bath, cut into lengths of | about three feet afid collected in bun- | dles of 40 or 50 strips each. They are {laid between sheets of zine and passed ll under hammers which beat the metal ; strips to the thinness of tissue paper. | This requires six successive beatings, ; 'and great skill must be exercised to | { produce a uniform and unbroken foil. | After the third beating the metal strips gare taken from between the sheets of : zine, loosened from each other and ; cleansed by immersion in a bath of | tartrate of potassium. The cleaning is ! repented after the last beating, and the sheets are hung on lines to dry. In the beginning the rolled strips are a dull | gray metallic color, at the fourth beat- | ing the yellowish color begins to show, 'and after the sixth they are clear and | i I | bright as gold. i_ The defective leaves are then thrown i out and the perfect ones cut into small ; squares, which are laid together by { hand in packets of several hundred | each and inclosed within an envelope ' of sheet brass. The packets return to | the annealing furnace, where they are | softened by heating and slow cooling, and then go to the beaters, where they are reduced under flattening hammers to the thinness of real gold leaf, so thin that it can be blown away by the breath. 'The manufacture of bronze powder consists in grading, clipping and pul- | verizing the various bronze foils to an even, impalpable powder and is an in- dustry of comparatively recent date. It began as a means of using up and utilizing the imperfect leaves which came as waste from the beaters of gold, silver and bronze. These were cut by hand into fine clippings and then ground to powder in hand mills of i simple construction. With the lapse of ' time and the spread of artistic indus- | tries the uses of bronze powder in- creased until the demand far outran 4 the supply of waste, and the leaf metal § is now made on a large scale. | The beating process fiattens out a : pound of copper and spelter alloy to an 'agrea of about 500 square feet, and in ! this condition the square sheets as they ; comé from the brass envelopes are sheared into small fragments and rub- t bed with olive oil through a steel sieve ! having ten meshes to the inch and then | passed to the stamping and grinding : machines, where they are pulverized by | steam or water power to the bronze i powder of commerce. The grinding : occupies from ome to four hours, ac- | cording to the grade or quality of the : powder to be produced, which is of four grades, from coarse to superfine. | The superfluous oil is removed by heat- fing under pressure, and the powder [is then carried into centrifugal clari- ' fiers, or grading machines, which, turn- ing at a high speed, expel the powder i through fine orifices in the form of { dust, which settles on inclosed shelves, Eaccording to weight and fineness, the ; finer particles at the top, the coarser below, and in this way the powder is ; divided into its various grades.-New | York Press.

The Shocks of Exercise Lengthen | Them and Keep Them Even,. As a fact, says the author, our lower limbs are not usually both of exactly the same length, though they are so for all practical purposes. The left is usu- glly the longer, though the gait is not notably influenced by this fact At birth the lower limbs are shorter than the upper, and their movements are rather of the prehensile type. \We are not born leggy like the foal or kanga- too, but we gradually achieve leggi- ness.\ The bones increase in length, not so much by interstitial deposit as by addition to their ends-that is, by pro- gressive ossification of the layer of car- tillage which intervenes between the end of the shaft and the epiphysis. Os- sification goes on till the component parts of the bone.are all united by bony matter, and thus the stature of the in- dividual is determined. If from inflammation or injury an epiphysis be damaged, one limb may be shorter than the other, or inflammatory stimulation may even induce an in- creased length in the bone affected. The skeletons of tortoises, not being sub- jected to sudden jars, have no epiphy- ses at the ends of the long bones, whereas in the leaping frog the extrem- ities of the humerus and femur long re- main as separate epiphyses. The con- tinuous concussions to which the ends of the bones of the lower limbs are ex- posed when a vigorous child is excited by its own natural spirit to run about are doubtless of great value in assist- ing the growth in length of the lower limbs, which soon lose their infantile 6 character and become-adapted for run- ning and walking. By exposing the lower limbs to the same influences and resistances during their entire growth we manage to maintain them of the same length, and gentle jars upon the epiphyses at the joints may be consid- ered favorable to growth. -New York Medical Record.
