The Ileroult electric process for the production of steel is now in practical operation at Remschcid Haston in Ger many, and it is reported that the steel produced is much superior in many ways to that made by older methods. Steel of great purity and homogeneous quality is made from ordinary scrap iron rubbish, melted and then sub jected to the action of an electric oven, In which the necessary carbon, man ganese, nickel and other substances re quired to produce steel of various qualities are added to the liquid metal. The oven has a capacity of from one and one-half to two tons, and is heat ed by a current of 100 volts. The new steel is said to be stronger and more resistant to wear and tear than the old-fashioned crucible steel. The Red Howling Monkey. The red howler (Mycetes seniculus) is a rare monkey of the forests of tropical America. It is an extremely delicate animal, and is closely remark able for the extraordinaary noises it Inmakes. The cries it utters comprise Ia-lmost any sound from a sub)dued moan to an angry roar, and it is hard ly conceivable that they should pro *ceed from a single animal. This Is the animal called red monkey by Wa terton in "Wander-ings in South America," where an adimirable de scription of its weird cries may be read. These sounds are pr-oducedl In a bony cavity formed by an enlarge ment of the hyoid, or tongue bone.

"Words are inadequate to -express my gratitude for Cuticura Remedies. .I had been troubled with eczema for five years on my ear and it began to extend on my cheek. I had been doctoring with the best physicians, but found no relief what ever. When rnforming them that I could not bear the itching i was told by one of our best doctors, 'not to scratch.' As the medicines and salves did me no good I thought I would get the 'Magic Three,' Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Pills, costing me one-half of one visit to my physician. After using as di rected, with plenty of hot water, I can truthfully state that 1 found instant re lief. When I had used three boxes of Cuticura Ointment and two cakes of Cuti cura Soap I found my skin as soft and fine as a baby's. My circle of friends is very large, and I am persuading them to use Cuticura Soap and give up the kinds they were using. I find no trouble, as my case has proven to them that if Cuticura Oint ment is good, Cuticura Soap must be like wise. Miss Netta Ayers, 131 Franklin Ave., Brooklyn, N. Y., Sept. 1 and 15, '00."

Nitro-Glycerine and Dynamite. Nitro-glycerine is made by spray ing ordinary glycerine into a mixture nomposed of one part of nitric acid ind two parts of sulphuric acid. A mcum slowly forms on the surface of the fluid. This is carefully skimmed Dff and washed thoroughly to remove all free acid. The innocent and 'harm less glycerine has then developed ex plosive properties of a fearful nature. Dynamite is prepared 'by soaking a peculiar varietiy of earth with nitro glycerine. 'I'he first man to devise the present mode of utilizing nitro glycerine was a Swedish engineer, named Nobel. He made millions of dollars out of the business of manufac turing dynamite and allied substances. Gn cotton is nothing but ordinary ootton soaked in the same acids as are used in making nitro-glycerine. Though the fibre must be washed, ex actly as nitro-glycerine is, the miys terious transformation in its character takes place quickly. 4 Tough on the Cur.

It not only agrees with and builds up chil dren, but older persons who, from bad habits of eating, have become dyspeptics. A Phila. lady, after being benefited herself, per'suaded her husband to try Grape-Nuts for stomach trouble. She writes: "About eight years ago I had a se Yoe attack of congestion of stomach and1 b)owels. From that time on I had to b)e very careful about eating, as nearly every kind1 of food then known to me seemed to cause pain. "Four year!; ago I commenced to use Urape-Nufi.
