limke all t his knbbub are the very ones
who have Uio least ri^bt to. ami I’ll

It is generally man—plain, horrid,
crabbed man—who finds so much fault
with our hats. Now, I don't mind tell
ing you that it is this same man who does
more to spoil a lady's evening at the the
ater than all the hats in Christendom.
You kuow him as well as I do, for you
meet him at every theater. Ho seems to
have nothin'; iu the world to do but to
go to playhouses and cause people to
wish they had never been born.
This man, whom we all kuow, never
gets to the theater until tho play has be
gun. And, what is inure astonishing
and even more aggravating, ho always
selects a seat midway between two aisles
and in the must crowded section of the
house.
Down tho aisle ho—this horrid man-
tramps, every step drowning at least
two lines of the dialogue. At his row
he stops and gloats over hio victims as
ho counts bow many therolire. Adjust
ing his overcoat so that it will hit every
hat in tho lino and dishevel every hang
under those hats, ho begins his mad
plunge for his seat. His caue-ho carries
so that it will catch every thread of lace
or every ornament, while he so handles
his feet as to take an inch of patent
leather off every shoe.
Gained his seat and he casts his eye

Into the face of every auditor in tho

Intonating Shy Mon.
Ono of the characters hi a modem nov
el is mode to say: "1 love a shy man.
He is getting eo scartc," Perliupe that
Is why he it so really delicious. When
he blushes palpably, but without look
ing awkward, ono is drawn toward him
by a certain sentiment of affinity, and so
long aa ho la just shy enough, but not
too shy, he wins more and more upon
one. To draw a really shy man out of
his shyness is a pleasing task, and the
more so as he is generally disinclined TO
give expression TO tho thonghts and
ideas that ho usually keeps locked fast
away within himself. Ono comes upon
a stray jewel or two now and then, in
such cases, in tho shape of an unexpect
ed thought that astonishes the discov
trer because it seems so different from
tho person from whom it emanates,
assure you, I think shy men are somo-
thnes very charming, but then one must
he a little shy one's self in order to up
predate them. Do you know any nice
ones, and do you find that they only
come out of their shell iu a tete-a-tete
and not always then, so that there is a
pleasing element of uncertainty about
them which adds TO the interest they
inspire?—Cor. London Truth.
Unman Flaab Doea Not Petrify,
Petrification is simply the substitution
of inorganic for organic matter, atom by
atom. This process of transformation
is unthinkably slow. As a molecule of
wood or bone decays a molecule of atone
takes Ite place. This con only occur
when the sir, earth or water surround
ing the organic substance in question
buds in solution some mineral which Is
readily precipitated. In the case of either
wood or bon#, while decoinnositlou

stance—with flesh, be it human or ani
mal, no such framework exists. The
Very rapid decay of flesh also makes it
Impossible for the very slow process of
petrifaction to have any effect In tho
war of making a transformation.
The stories of petrified bodies being
found in graveyards are usually "faked
np?' by some imaginative returter who
wishes to lengthen his "string. 11 It is
true, however, that the bodies of human
twinge have been frequently found in-
Sfttsted with n eillcious substance so Of
to resemble real petrifactions In every
particular.—At. Louis Republic.

Signing with the cross was first prac
ticed by Christians to distinguish them
selves from tho pagans. In ancient rimes
kings and nobles used the sign of the
cross, whether they ooald write or not,
as a symbol that the person making it
pledged himself by his Christian faith to
the truth of Ibe matter to which ho af-
fii.d It—Detroit Free Pres*.
There is apt to bo a tine irreverence
about the inventor which lends him to
suspect that any old way of doing n
tiling is for that very reason not the best
way. Often be observes some time hon
ored plan of working, andaciously makes
aphis mind to do the exact opposite and
hits npon success. Guns wero loaded at
tho muzzle for ages, until one day a man
of originality thought of loading them
at tho other end, tho preferable end on
many accounts besides that of manifest
convenience. Tho same path was trod
den by tho Frenchman who first put the
eye of a needle near its point instead of
away from its point. He little knew
that lie was doing u great deal to make
the sewing machine a possibility.
One of tho notions of tho pioneer rail
way engineers in England was that their
roils must be flanged so that tho wheels
of locomotives and carriages should not
get off tho truck. But somo ono of skep
tical minu inquired, “Why not leave the
TOpof tho rail flat, or nearly flat, and pat
the flange on the wheel, an easier thing
TO do?” Accordingly the flange was taken
from tho rail to tho wheel and remains
there to this day to remind the traveler
that an eastern philosopher told long
ago, "To him that it well shod it is as
if the whole earth were covered with
leather.”
It is a good many yean now since
steam was first used for heating build
ings, and aa air when warmed ascends
what more natural than that steam ooOa
should hug the floors just as the stoves
before them hud done? But in some of
the largest factories in this country the
coils ore fastened not to the floor, but to
the ceiling, which proves to he a better
place foe them. As everybody knows
who ever sat before an open fire, radia
tion is a pleasanter means of warmth
than convection, than heat carried along
by currents of air. Floor epooe is inci
dentally saved, and the risk of gathering
combustible rubbish about tha«r.‘.l. u
avoided.
In the ages of simplicity. T$fobesme
flown to watt’s ttyqfl end the invention
of the Steam engine, when a kettle wee
to be heated the proper plaoe for the fire
was thought to be outside. But when
big boilers came in, with Meeting need
that their contents he heated in the short
est time possible, it was found gainful
to put the fire Inside. BttphensopVloco-
tdotlvo, the Rocket, permd 99 sttytU
part of its efficiency from hie knowledge
to which eida pf (he poller TO apply
flame.
On somewhat the same principle Lord
Dundonald, one of the early improvers
of the steam engine, forced the tot air
currents under his toiler from above
downward, against their natural tend
ency to mo"o from below upward. In
this way to made available much heat
that otherwise would have been waited.
Tho steam engine, whether mounted on
wheels or not, always keeps its fuel out
side-furnace and cylinder are distinct.
Today the steam engine's primacy U
challenged by a motor which naes its
fuel inside, the furnace being no other
than the cylinder, precisely as in the
barrel of a gun. So much more work
does a gas engine yield than a steam en
gine, in comparison with tho heat ap
plied, that only the dearness of heat «a
supplied by gas prevents the speedy su-
porcudure of steam for motive power.
As gas ongiuee grow steadily larger,
their margin of economy become* so de
cided that it begins to pay to main gas
on purpose to bum in them.
In the reduction of banxlte. tho re
fractory ore of aluminium, it is neces
sary to maintain an extreme tempera
ture. The melting point of the mineral
is high, and only so much of the heat as
ranges above that temperature does
work. In the mining department of the
World’s fair is an exhibit showing how
the modern metallurgist rednees alumin
ium with new economy. Instead of em
ploying the old crucible method and ap
plying tho fire from without, ho incloees
the ore in a nonconducting bed, and by
means of a powerful electric current ap
plies tho hent from within. Electric
fnruaces of this type now produce bronze
and other alloys at prices which steadily
fall as their market enlarges.
Not fur frum tho mining exhibit at
Chicago stands Machinery ball. When
its visitors seo one of tho largest steam
engines driving machinery with a slack
belt, they are wont to express surprise.
Ordinary folks today think just what
machinists thought a few years ago—
that tightness is the effective and indeed
tho only feasible condition for belts.
But in this case, as in a good many oth
ers, the rule of contraries has come, and
with profit.
Architects as well aa engineer* and
metallurgists have found it profitable to
go into opposition where some ancient
practices have been concerned. In lati
tudes of much fall of rain or enow the
form of roof which most obviously sug
gests itself is the common pitched roof,
resembling an A mote orlese broadened.
Vexed by bunting rain conductors, by
impromptu object leieoni as to the force
of avalanches, northern architects take
not A, but V, duly Widened, for their
roof type. In winter ice and enow, caught
ns in a bn sin, eftnhot fall TO the street,
li'ichs are banished, and in conductors
carried through the heart of the imildir g
and kept warm by the building ice is
gradually melted without a chance to do
damage.—New York Bun.
