Now the Girls I" out to Put on also Gloves
with Us.
Probably no one thing is so general among our
female population as nervous exhaustion, and
nothing is so productive of unhappiness and
anxiety as nervousness, which seems to be more
prevalent in America than in other countries. It
can hardly be accounted for, as the more care we
have over them, the worse they are. One unmiti-
g: itcd scouridi'el said: “They are plat ing it 011 the
men to get close attention,” which pleases the
boys as much as the girls. Now, the women have
struckancw lead. Since the druggisis bare in-

For turning and drilling wrought iron'

The work, though constantly moist, does

The Germans have been making ex-I
psrimonts with a view to ascertaining the '
relative strength of hard and soft steel;
and iron beams or girders. The results|
show that the soft steel girders were'
twenty-two per cent. and the hard steel
girders sixty-six per cent. stronger than
the iron girders, and the strength of
steel girders was found substantially the
same for the two flanges when similar in ,

A handy device for facing up cylin-
der-s is made by clamping an arm to the
sliding collar of an ordinary cylinder
bar. The arm hose tool post attached
to it by means of a gibbod slide and
feed screw. similar to the cross-feed of
an ordinary slide rest. B‘y turning the
feed screw of this arm, as it makes each
revolution, the oylinder may be faced a
distance equal to the traverse of tool on

AFi'enoh geologist has called atten-
tion to the efi‘ect gravitation has in
heaping up sea waters upon the land.
ing the Atlantic the ship has first to go
down hill, then to cross a valley, and
climb another bill. The calculation has
been made that in'mid-ooean the surface
may be more than half a mile (1000
metres) below the level it would have if
the continents exerted no attraction.
Prof. Bell is oonfidentthat telephonic
communication may be establishedbe-
tween passing vessels at sea He believes
a wire a mile in length, trailed behind it
ship, will so charge the water with
electricity that a vessel coming within
half a mile of another thus equipped
may communicate with it. “The prin-
ciple,” he says. "is not new; it is old,
with a new use waiting for commerce
to utilize it. I have experimented in
plicity of the apparatus and the stupend-
ous importance of the results.”
New Zealand reports that aDunedin
electrical engineering firm is carrying
out a contract for the transmission of
power to run a stamping battery of
twenty heads. The scene of operations
is a gold mine in the mduntainoua coun-
try some thirty miles beyond Lake Wak-
tipu, and the power to run the battery is
transmitted from a water-fall in the
neighboring valley. straight over a
mountain of about 2000 feet in h
and fora distance of about two 3%
The conducting wire is of the same size, ,
as an ordinary telegraph wire, but of
copper, and is suspended from telegraph
insulators in the usual manner.
It is very easy to make any ordinary
3 paper temporarily translucent by simply
dampening it with a sponge moistened
with benzine. In this condition u 111 '
sufficiently transparent to permit of the
lines of a drawing being seen through it,
and of ink or water colors being used on
its surface without running. As the
benzine evaporates the paper loses its
translucenoy and assumes its ordinary
opaque appearance. If this occurs too
quickly, the part can easily be dampened
again with the benzino. The faint smell
of the oil which will. remain will die-
appear in a day or two if the paper is left
exposed to the air.
The results of experiments made thus
far in the purification of water by aero-
tion have attracted much notice. This
method is well known to be based on
the discovery that the action of air in
purifying water is greatly increased by
mixing the air and water under pressure.
A Fairmount, Philadelphia, turbine
engine was converted into an air-pump,
which delivered twenty per cent. by
volume, of free air into the water main.
this being the proportion found neces- .
sary to surchange the water. Analysis'
showed'that the quantity of free oxygen, I
in the aerated water was seventeen per»
cent. greater than before aeration, while;
the quantity of carbonic acid was fifty.I I ‘4 " ’40
three per cent. greater, and that of the
total dissolved gases was sixteen perl 1,:
cent. greater.
The constant discovery of natural gas.
in and about Pittsburg in wells giving
from 1,000,000 to 10,000,000 daily supply
is the marvel of the times. There have
been improvements in the pipe joints'
and measures perfected and adopted to:
prevent waste. The future of this gas
and its uses are beyond conjecture. A
patent for the process of changing it into
an illuminant has been granted. The
main feature of the process is the burst
ing of the natural gas molecules by heat .
and mixing it with the finer gases. Ii'
is claimed that this process will oheapen ‘
illuminatinggasone-fifth. Another new
system of producing heat with natural
gas has been brought forward, and a
favorable opinion of it: has been expressed
by experts. The scheme 18 to effect the
union of a spray of water with natural
gas, evolving an extra degree of calorie. l
The spray is injected into the flame of;
the burning gas, and the decomposition
of the water and the combination of the l
released hydrogen and oxygen with the:
natural gas, and the combustion of the;
new compound, generates the heat. 2

A City of Pretty Girls.
“There are no 110111on girls in Quo-
bec,"an11tive born Canadian said to 11
visitor to the ancient citadel city of
Canada. “I have often stood at a Will-
dow and watched for one in the throng
passing on the sidewalks, but I have
never yet seen :1 Quebec girl who could
be described as ugly. I don’t claim
that they are all absolutely beautiful;
but there is something in the clear,
invigorating air, and perhaps in the soil
and surroundings of this lofty and rocky
city that gives them sparkling eyes, bril-
liant complexions and elasticity of step.
Montreal is full of pretty women, but
Quebec can beat her in that respect.
Have you noticed how easily our Quo-
beo girls climb the steep city streets?
They don’t lag, they don't get out of
breath, they don’t stagger from one side
of the walk to the other. They just go
up as lightly and gracefully as any lady
can walk across a parlor floor. The
exercise they get is partly the secret of
their good looks.
“Then there’s another thing that
helps. They‘re out 'of doors half the
time. On a pleasant evening the ter-
race, that broad plank promenade
which stretches for a quarter of amile
along the top of the precipice under the
brow of Cape Diamond. is crowded with
them, strolling in pairs and groups,
chatting, laughing and perhaps flirting
a little. You don’t mind that. do you!
No. Well, look what a pleasure ground
it is. Two hundred feet above the» ‘
waters of the St. Lawrence, and facing
one of the very finest views in the world,
as everybody admits, which extends
from point Levi down the river to Cape
Tonrment, and from the top of Mont-
morenci far back among the Lauren-
tian Mountains. You can't blame us
Quebeckers for being proud of it."

Frank Burr. in his Philadelphia oer-3
respondenoe, writes: Near by the waters
' ofabeautiful river standsanold house
with 8 singular history. Sloping gently
back towards the turnpike 8 mile from
the banks of the Delaware is 8 wide
stretch of country clad in green meadow
lawn and freokled with forest trees and
shmbbery. The railroad leading to New
York passes between the house and the
water which slips quietly on towards the
sea. Thus a country scene is kept
spirited by the passing trains on the one
side and the trudge of the travelers
along the country road on the other.
Looking from the iron highway
towards the old mansion, I will describe
nothing but the rear of the house, which
can be seen. Heroio figures represent-
ing some tragic era stand on either side
of the broad porch which backs the
dwelling of womb and poverty. To the
. left is the hothonse. , To the right is the
barn and all about is the green award
that is the resting and feeding p18 co for
the Alderney cows. which furnish milk
for those who cannot buy it for them-
selves. Then there are queer statues in
the grounds and other chances at art.
Passengers who are carried swiftly by on
the train get but a fleeting view of - what
is hid here. To those who would make
- a visit to this place of peace and rest
another road and a more beautiful vision
is open.
The “Forrest Home" has a strange his-
tory. Years ago it was the country resi-
dence of a rich man. When Edwin For-
rest was getting along in years he pur-
chased it as a summer place for himself
and his sisters. He selected it as the
best resting-place from the cares and
labors of the stage he could find near
here. , _
Hard by the turnpike three miles from
Frankford, a suburb of the Quaker City,
this home is situated. It is along the
old road over which the stages used to
rumble between New York and Philadel-
phia in days long since passed and gone.
This pike was once the great highway
between the national capital and the
metropolis. Evidences of its importance
as'a line of communication are still stand-
ing in the shape of the country taverns
where the stages used to stop for refresh-
ments of both a liquid and a solid char-
acter.
After Mr. Forrest's acting days were
over be conceived the idea of leaving
this property as 8 home for aged and
infirm members of the profession which
he so adorned. ' He not only left to such
a charity the property, with its hundred
acres of rich farming land about it, but
donated the balance of his estate to sup-
port such an institution. Out of the city
. along the country road before you reach
' Forrest Home, and beyond it, there are
many beautiful residences.- -They are
people of busy Philadelphia. - But
among them all- there isno place more
attractive than the one to which I will
lead your readers.
It 18 surrounded and. almost obscured
from view by great forest trees. The
lawns and byways are threaded with
graveled walks and beautiful drives, all
hedged with shrubbery, and decorated
, with flowers. There is not a single feat-
nre about the place to give it the air ofa
' secluded home of some wealthy man who
had enough and’to spare of this world's
goods. ' As you drive in at the great i'r‘on
gate and up the graveled " roadway
between the rows of great cedar trees,
which form an archway over your head,
ease, comfort and beauty is everywhere
pictured.
There is a touch of quiet about all you
see that keeps up the illusion that, you
are approaching some private residence.
there, keeping the grounds in excellent
order. The lawn is cleanly shaved, the
properly worked. The house is almost
hid from the road by the trees and shrub-
bery. As you reach the porohrevery-
thing is so neat and comely that fyou
wonder at the spirit and purpose of this
been directed asthe home of the poor
and needy of a few of 8 great profes-
sion.
' As I alighted at the door of the resi-
dence, which is built of brick, a polite
attendant took my horse and led it away
to the barn. Acolored servant answered

door, there hangs between two busts" in
marble-one of himself and the other of

are two busts of friends of the dead
actor.

ings of different kinds and sizes line the
Mr. Forrest's statue stands almost oppo«
site the door leading into the parlor.
This room, covering the whole end of
one part of the house, is richly furnished
and as profusely hung with rich and
costly paintings as the hallway and stair-
cases. On the baok wall hangs Mr.
Forrest's favorite picture, “ The Brook."
It portrays a beautiful little girl stopping
her foot into the water. The sun is shin-
ing through the parted branches of 8
tree upon her hair, which falls carelessly
upon her shoulders. It is a lovely paint-
ing, and it is said'that Mr. Forrestin
his life time would frequently sit and
look ntit for half an hour statinieas
' though it recalled to him some remih‘ii-
eence' 'of his early life that was either
pleasant or' sad.
PaSsing through the hall the library’ is
reached. This is 11. beautiful and cosy
place, stocked with more than two thou-
sand volumes of choice literature of‘ all
grades. It is'a perfect mine of interest
and pleasure for the old people, for
whose comfort and pleasure Mr. Forrest
has so amply provided. At the awful
tho-i ibrm'y is a beautifully stained ' mem-
orial window, on either side of which
hangs crises of swonls which 'Mt'. Forrest
used to use upon the stage“. You might
impact the whole house without find-
ing a. single evidence of its present

'~ lot of old people than the eleven: oo-'
cmunletcly and systematically sustained "
and a freedom that ie'uukh’oiu‘v‘in' most
charitable institutions. They are all
welldressed end'eeem- coinfortabie and
happy. Above the main floor. the rooms
are as downstairs-all large: end. airy.
They are splendidly and many of them
richly furnished. The walls are hung
with choice pictures. There are plenty
of great easy chairs. soft and comfortable
beds and reading matter without stint.
The daily papers and current: magazines
are brought into the house by every
mail. Each of the inmates has a room
to himself or herself, and all are com-
fortnbly fed. housed and clothed as
though they were in their own homes.
It was Mr. Forrest's intention, when
he set nside‘this estate andendowed it
with the bulk of his fortune, that it
should bo made :1 home for- those who
sought its privileges. There was to be
none of the coldness that always sur-
rounds organized eharity. It seems that
his wishes have been '.respeoted The
inmates are permitted to come and go
at their pleasure i There are no restric—
tions as to going out and in or visiting
their friends in the city or dishint cities.
Out of the eleven occupants some one or
more are always constantly away. It is
really uninteresting picture to see these
veterans of the stage enjoying the has
pitality'of this place. They spend their
time wondering about the grounds, sit-
ting under the shade trees in the sum-
mer time or gathering in little knots and
going over the reminiscences of. their
lives before the footlights.
The oldest member of this family is
Herr John Cline.
He was born in. Straubnrg and came
to this country many years ago, per-
forming in all the leading theatres of
this country. He was the most famous
rope-dancer of his time and in fact of
any time. His' skill and gme open the
tight rope, so old Charlie Thorns tells
me, has never been excelled. Mr. Theme
took me to South America many years
ago and made 8 great deal of money
with him there as well as on the Pacific
Coast. Mr. Cline was eighty years old
in April, and in his day must have been
a very handsome man. He is still sane;
looking man for his yen-sand seemefov
