Its History a Romance of Philoso
phy and Mechanics.
UNCLE SAM'S FINE EXHIBIT.
The National Museum at Washington
Shows the First Crude Machines
Made as Well as Originals and Mod
els of the First Locomotives.
Probably no museum collection in i lie
world bolter Illustrates t lit? develop
nieut of the steam engine, particular!.
the locomotive, than the exhibit of the
United Stales National museum a;
Washington, which includes two of the
earliest original locomotives and uu
mei'ous models and ac. ossories.
The history ot the steam onuine is a
materialistic romance without parallel
in the record of human ah;evenieiits
It covets the stupendous and persist
out efforts of many early philosophers
and mechanics ho found steam a
mysterious uncontrollable force and
left it a comprehensible controllable
factor of public service.
No one Knows how long after It was
observed that by holding down the lid
of a kettle of boiling Ihpiid a certain
force was created, due to the com
pression of tile steam, before tiny use
was attempted with this newly discov
ered force. It is certain, however, that
a sort of steam engine was exhibited
in Alexandria. Egypt, about -00 years
before our era began, and it was de
scribed in a work on pneumatics by
Hero of Alexandria, written between
1.T0 a(d l.'in H C. This machine was
a rotary affair, more theoretical than
practical, as were many of the results
of philosophy in those days. A recon
struction of this engine in model form
is in the museum exhibits.
Nothing ni'ue is to be found concern
ing the steam engine for centuries, a
fact which is no doubt due to the hick
of interest in anything which did not
have to do with war or warlike Imple
ments. A book published in Ibnne in
ItiUb gives a description of (liovanni
Brawn's crude steam online, showing
it to have been an elementary steam
turbine, with the sole defect that it
lacked any appliances for making the
steam follow the vanes, or buckets, of
the revolving wheel, so that more of
its enemy might have been converted
into useful work. One author in a
treatise on locomotives claims that had
some genius improved upon this early
device the reciprocating engine would
probably never have been invented, but
that we would have had the advantage
of our modern turbines much sooner.
The museum possesses a model of a
very early machine designed by Sir
Isaac Newton in USD which was pro
pelled by a.. let of steam projected
backward against the air and a model
of Iienis Papin's invention of about
the same time. The investigations of
Savery and I'apln and the successful
experimental engines of Thomas New
comen in lTOo with ills piston and
cylinder soon followed. Xewcoiueu'fc
ideas were improved by .lames Watt in
ITd'.i, who also introduced the high
pressure engines, the condenser and
later the double acting engine. The
development of the engine was advanc
ed by L'ughot, Evans. Ilornblower and
Murdoch. A model ()f the hitter's en
gine is on display in the museum.

resident of Merthyr Tydfil, an Impor

Shamrock, Mo. "I feel it my duty
to tell the public the condition of my
i health before using
your medicine. I had
falling, inflamma
tion and congestion,
female weakness,
pains in both sides,
backaches and bear
ing down pains, was
short of memory,
nervous, impatient,
passed sleepless
nights, and had
neither strength nor
energy. There was always a fear and
dread in my mind, I had cold, nervous,
weak spoils, hot flashes over my body.
I had a place in my right side that was
so sore that I cou!J hard!y bear the
weight of my clothes. I tried medicines
and doctors, but they did me little good,
and I never expected to get out again.
I got Lydia E. Pinkham'9 Vegetable
Compound and Blood Purifier, and I cer
tainly would have been in grave or in an
asylum if your medicines had not saved
me. Put now I can work all day, sleep
well at right, eat anything I want, have
no hot flashes or weak, nervous spells.
All pains, aches, fears and dreads are
gone, my house, children Bnd husband

sprains and like ailments. It is a fa
vorite with people who are well ac
quainted with its splendid qualities.
Mrs. Charles Tanner, Wabash, Ind.,
says of it, "I have found Chamber

Home For a Holiday.
Some men on n home holiday tinker
all day long, others bring w ith them a
great many books which they never
read, and the result In both cases is
that housekeeping becomes a pro

on a vacation eat a great deal more
than other men or than at other times,
but with the sole exception of the
anomalous academic, who Is always
concerned for his gastronomy, they will
eat anything and enjoy It and say so.
A mail at home for his holiday is al
ways vociferously appreciative. His
happiness is almost enough to repay a
woman for the noise lie makes and
the mess, yet statistics could show that
during any man's homo vacation the

Longman undertaking to pay Moore
3.000 guineas for an eastern poem and
to take It for better or worse at any
time that suited the author's conven

SEVERE PUNISHMENT
Of Mrs. aappell, of Fire Yean'
Standing, Relieved by Cardui.
Mt. Airy, N. C Mrs. Sarah M. Chap,
pell of this town, says: "I suffered foi
live years with womanly troubles. als
stomach troubles, and my punislimenl
was more than any one could tell.
I tried most every kind of medicine,
but none did me any good.
I read one day about Cardui, the wo
man's tonic, and 1 decided to try it. I
had not taken but about six bottles until
1 was almost cured. It did me more
good than all the other medicines I had
tried, put together.
My friends began asking me why I
looked so well, and 1 told them about
Cardui. Several are now taking it."
Do you, lady reader, suffer from any
of the ailments due to womanly trouble,
such as headache, backache, sideache,
sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired
feeling?
If so, let us urge you to give Cardui a
trial. We feel confident it will help you,
just as it has a million other women in
the past half century.
Begin taking Cardui to-day. You
won't regret it. All druggists.

AiUlY BUGLES.
Vashleied From Sheets of Copper by
an Ingenious 'Process.
From start to tinish the making of
mi army bugle is a process of iiiuch
Ingenuity and Interest. A bugle may
not at lirst sight present a striking re
semblance 'to Its cousin, the coach
horn, but one is practically a curled
up version of the other, for before the
bugle is bent into shape it consists of a
narrow tube til'tj-one inches long.
In the lirst stage of iiiaiiufaeuii'e the
bugle i 54 cut out of sheet copper and
rolled into two thin cylinders, technic
ally known as the "bed" and I he
"branch." The narrow tube, which is
the "bell." Is gradually shaped out on
molds until the opening is the regular
four inches in diameter. It is then
"spun" on a wonderful machine, and
an expert workman takes the rough
edges olf the copper.
lioth sections are afterward tilled with
molten lead preparatory to the bending
stage, 'and it is this solid smiting
which prevents the tube breaking in
the process and allows it to keep its
shape. The expert workup, with the
aid of a formidable lever irfnl hammer,
bends the hugle Into the familiar
shape, the lead being subsequently
melted out at a charcoal furnace, after
which the Instrument is sent off to the
polishers.
One of the most intricate parts of the
bugle Is the mouthpiece, which Is made
of nickel silver and turned out ou a
special fnthe With the mouthpiece
fixed the instrument is ready for the
testing room. Pearson's Weekly.
BUCK THE LINE HARD.
People Who Do Big Things Do Not Let
Themselves Be Held.
It was 011 the football held ut one of
the large colleges. A big tackle had
been brought over to the varsity tield
from one of the class elevens. It was
his lirst experience with the big team
He played a tine game until the other
side had the ball. Then he did not
"break through" as he should. The
coach filially stopped the play and
went over to him.
"What Is the trouble? Why don't
you get through?" he said.
"The man opposite me Is not playing
fair. lie is holding lue." said the
tackle.
"If he holds you again I'll put you
off the field.'" Hashed back the coach.
Of course, as the Uickle said, it is
against the rules to hold an opponent
uuless he has the ball, but the coach
wanted results and not excuses. His
position was that a man ought somehow
to break away; that no man must let
himself be held. And that is true. 110
one ought to let himself be held. The
excuse may be excellent, but a player
who Is held is put out of the game as
effectively as If he were off the Held.
He might Just as well be off the field.
The people who accomplish things
worth while In the world are those
who will uot let themselves be held.
There have always been things enough
to hold them. They might have found
excellent excuses, but they have not
had to use any excuses. Youth's Com

GERMS ON SALADS.
A Simple Method by Which All Dan-
ger May Be Avoided.
Drs. Loir and Legagneux of Tarls
tested vinegar as a destroyer of the
germs of typhoid fever. That they are
killed by a mixture of wine nnd water
in equal parts has. Long been known.
These Investigators prove now that
twenty grams of vinegar to a liter of
water kill the typhoid bacillus In an
hour and live minutes.
"Prom this." writes the Paris corre
spondent of the Loudon Lancet, "a
practical inference may be drawn con
cerning salads. After washing the sal
ad as usual, detaching each leaf, it
should be put Into water acidulated
with ten grams of vinegar to the liter
and remain Immersed in this liquid for
about an hour and a quarter. All veg
etables ordinarily eaten uncooked may
be subjected without any inconven
ience to the same process."
A liter Is equivalent 10 about a quart
and ten grams are equivalent to about
a third of an ounce. So if lettuce or
other greens for salad be placed In
water to which about one-third of an
ounce of vinegar has been added and
be left for about nn hour and a quar
ter all danger of typhoid fever will be
removed.
The Centipede.
The centipede was formerly a resi
dent of the southern part of this coun
try, but it has gradually worked Its
way to the north, so that now It Is
quite common In nearly every portion
of the country. It thrives best in
damp and warm places and has its re
deeming feature in that it catches and
destroys many of the domestic pests
we are well rid of. ' Its method of
catching an Insect seems to be to spring
over it. inclosing and caging it with
Its many legs. The belief occasionally
met with that the centipede feeds ou
household goods and woolens or othet
clothing is without foundation. On
the other hand, the bite of this crea
ture Is undoubtedly more or less poi
sonous, the effect depending on the
susceptibility of the patient. St. Louis
Post-Dispatch.
"A Man Is as Old as He Feels."
The well known saying, "A man Is
as old as he feels, a woman as old as
she looks," It seems, Is pure Liver
pudlian, and legal at that. During the
trial of a breach of promise case there
arose some argument as to the desira
bility of a man of forty-nine marrying
a girl of twenty, whereupon the judge
delivered the famous epigram. H
even went one better, for, when coun
sel for the defense argued that the
lady had had a lucky escape from
marrying such a man as bis client, the
witty Judge observed. "What the wo
man loses is the man she thinks blm
to be." Liverpool Post

Proper Carving.
In carving, ham and beef should be
cut thin; pork, lamb, veal and mutton
a little thicker. When carving a leg
of mutton, take hold of the bone end
with the left hand, then cut thin
slices down to the bone and loosen
each slice by putting the knife flat on
the bared bone and cutting through.
The slicing should gradually chance
direction slightly, so to always cut
across the grain.
PETROGRAD IS A WONDER.
A City Built by Russia In Defiance of
the Laws of Nature.
It Is an amazing monument to the
despotism of the czars that Petrograd.
has flourished, as it was built. In de
fiance of the laws of trade and of na
ture herself. As a port it Is Immeas
urably inferior to Itiga. which has a
much longer open season, for Petro
grad Is icebound from early .November
to the end of April. As a building site
It has been repeatedly and disastrous
ly flooded by the Neva. The highest
elevation .within the bounds of the city
is less thaii fifteen feet above sea level,
and the cellars have to be baled out
nearly every spring when the lee melts
and the wind blows.
And the rigorous climate constantly
gnaws at walls and columns until the
city has been twice and thrice rebuilt
by the czars. Many of the most Im
posing structures are held together
only by means of Iron clamps, and the
huge bowlder on 'which Peter rides his
bronze horse is ever crumbling away.
The stones of the streets are continual
ly sinking below the level, and the
great Cathedral or St. Isaac never
ceases to settle on a foundation In
which nearly $1,000,000 was sunk. No
less than six tiers of piles were driven
for the beautiful column of Alexander
L, yet that eighty foot monolith, the
tallest and largest In Europe, has to
be clamped In iron.
As a dwelling place Petrograd re
mains the most fatal of any great city
hi the civilized world, with a mortali
ty of twenty-eight to each 1.000 of pop
illation, and within ten years its death
rate actually exceeded its birth rate.
