FAKES Ill o FREAK sooo.
SOME QUEER AND CLEVER
TRICKS ARE PERFORMED.
HOW
The Way the Fire-Eater Does His Act.
Licking a. Red-Hot Bar of Iron—Bare
Feet. on a. Hot. Iron Plate—Eating
Tacks nnd Swallowing Glass.
The fire-eating act has many entertain-
ing features: In placing a lighted sub-
stance in the mouth the performer as a.
rule uses a piece of oakum or sponge
saturated with gasoline, which is a
”highly Volatilized mixture'obtained from
petroleum. .It is placed lighted in the
month without touching the lips, which
aremstantly closed, and the fire is ' at
once extinguished. There is a ' Certain
amount of moisture or oily substance on
the tongue, which serves to protect it
during the short time the flame is alive
in the mouth, which, with the tongue,
is also .toughened by the use of alum.
Paper soaked in alum or water, ac-
cording to the New York News, becomes
as fireproOf as asbestos. The gas that: .is ‘ .
generated in the mouth from the gaso-
line is utilized by blowing it into the
flame of a lamp through a glass tube,
and, as it instantly catches 'fire, it ap~
pearsto the observer that the man has an
inflammable breath. The flame goes
out andireappears' at the will of the per-
former, as he stops the end of the
tube «or continues to fill it with gas until
the supply in his mouth is exhausted.
A puzzling trick is to make a piece of
paper catch fire by apparently only blow-
ing on it. It is done in this way: Ten
cents worth of bisulphate of carbon and'
a ten-cent stick of phosphorus are placed
in an air-tight bottle with a glass stop-
per, where the phosphorus dissolves;
The paper is soaked in the bottle, and
when it is withdrawn has to be used.
quickly, because when it strikes the air.
it burns. "
This trick was put to an amusing use -
a year or two ago, when Manager Huber
was giving an exhibition of “spiritual
manifestations.” A committee from the
audience was invited to come upon the
stage and examine the cabinet and as-
sure the spectators that everything was
as represented. It Was a very warm
A day, and the superintendent. kindly pro-
vided the committee with Japanese fans.
He. had previously, however, dropped
some of the. preparation, of carbon and
phosphorus on “the fans, and as soon as
the committee begun to agitate them
they were naturally astonished to see
their. burst into flame and quickly
dropped them on the stage.
Before licking with the tongue a red-
hot bar of iron, or rubbing the lighted
end of a cigar or cigarette on the tongue,
3 solution of borax and alum is used in
the mouth of the performer.
. A startling trick in the fire line is to
jump with bare feet on a hot plate of
iron. Before doing this turn the per-
former sits with his feet in a tub of ice
water until they are thoroughly be-
numbed. Then he jumps on the hot
iron, but before reflex action sets in,
which would, of course, cause intoler-
able pain“, he is off again. The water on
his feet turns into steam before reflex ac-
tion sets in, but unless there is too much
water on them it affords some protec-
tion, otherwise so much steam would
generate so quickly as to roast the flesh.
Not long ago, in Wilkasbarre, Pa., the
manager of a d1me museum was short of
curios, when-one of the performers of-
fered to jump on a hot iron with his
bare feet in order to fill out the bill. The
offer was accepted, a piece of sheet iron
4by 2 1-2 feet in size obtained and under
it was placed a gaslight. In order to
make as fine an impression as possible
the performer first painted the iron red,
and when he did the act “the thing,”
according to an eye-witness, “ nearly
pulled off the bottom'of his feet, and he
had to use sandpaper to get off all the
paint.”
That the freaks that are known as
tack and glass swallowers actually do
swallow these highly indigestible articles
is shown‘ by the autopsy recently per-
formed on one of them who died with a
choice selection of tacks, staples and
broken glass in his stomach. The swab
lowing is facilitated by a mouthful of
water, and the tongue of the performer
arranges the tacks in his mouth so'that
they go down with their heads foremost.
This class of freaks are great drinkers of
whiskey, which counteracts the injurious
eflects of the presence of glass in the
stomach. After each performance they
eat a piece of dry bread and wash it
down with whiskey. ..
In the case of “the freak with-th
phenomenal skull,” on which stones are
broken. the secret of the trick lies in the
pad between his skull and the stone,
which distributes the force of the blow
of the hammer so that he is not injured.
The so-called Circassian girls, as is gen-
erally known, are mostly made freaks,
their hair being doctored with stale beer
and gum arabic, which combine to
bleach it and stiffen it. Many of these
freaks nowadays find it more comfort-
able to wear wigs that are skillfully ad-
justed to the head. The so-called “ moss-
hairedWoman” wears a wig, but itis
so artistically fitted on her head that to
the average observer it looks like a
hatural growth of hair.———Chicago Herald.
Z 'A Powerful Forging Press.
Th installation of a 4.000~ton hydrau-
lic press in the St. Jacques Iron Works
at Montlucon, France, serves to lnark
the progress of an innqyation in forging
work. The substitution of hydraulic
presses for powerful Steam hammers for
the forging of large masses of steel has
for some time been steadily on the in-
crease. It is found that the work of the
press is more regular, homogeneous and
rapid, and that the press» costs much
less to install than the steam hammer..
Finally, the difiiculties met with in the
installation of the foundations and anvil
' beds increase in such a measure when
the weight of the hammers is increased
that the limit of power that can be given
to them has been practically reached,
«vhile the possibilities of press power
rrxnnot ::s yet be accorded any limitations.

A kiss he tooli’and a backward look,
And her heart grew suddenly lighter;
A trifle, you say, to color the day,
Yet the dull gray morn seemed bright“.
For hearts are such that a tender touch
May banish a look of sadness;
A small, slight thing can make us sing,
But a frown will check our gladness.
The cheei‘iest ray along our way A
Is the little act of kindness,
Andthe keenest sting some careless thing
That was done in a moment of blindness.
We can'bravely face life in a home when
strife
No foothold can discover,
And be lovers still if we only will.
Though youth’s bright days are over.
Ah, sharp as swords cut the unkind words
That are far beyond recalling.
When a face is hid ’neath acofiln lid,
And bitter tears are falling.
We fain would give half the lives we live
To undo our idle scorning: ‘
Then let us not miss the smile and kiss
' . Whizn we part in the light of morning.

The‘ \Vorld’s Peanut Centre.
Norfolk has a crop which is worth
millions of dollars annually—peanuts.
Norfolk supplies the Civilized world with
peanuts. _ . .
a pint in your overcoat pocket, and the
Parisian fruit merchant who weighs
you ’out a quarter of. a kilogram of the
homley nuts, get. them from here, for
this is the only peanut market in the
world. Smyrna has its figs, Barbary its
dates, Bordeaux its grapes, and Norfolk
its peanuts. What would life be with-
out peanuts? One can scarcely picture
an existence which would be even toler-
able under such circumstances. ,
The peanut magnates grow the edible
tuber in N ansemond, Isle of Wight, Sur-
rey and Southampton- counties, but the
common market is in Norfolk. The rows
for the nutsare laid 'off three feet apart.
They are made fifteen inches deep, and
phosphates are largely used as an under-
. They are strewn along in
these trenches about the middle of April,
and mature after the same term which
is required for potatoes.
It is a crop which is marketed like the
‘ Dutch drumhead and purple Savoy cab-
bage, running from November to March.
The nuts, however, have to go through
the factories before they are shipped
northward, and these factories are, with
few exceptions, situated in Franklin,
Southampton county. — Geographical

The Smoolh Man of Flora.
“ There are many wa *s of turning a
penny,” soliloquized J. R. Morton.
‘ ‘ Some time back a smooth-spoken fellow
turned up in Flora, Ill. He went to the
bank and had an audience with the presi-
dent and cashier. He had a little story
all ready ,and it wore the garb of plausi-
bility. Several banks had been robbed .
recently, and the youngster pretended to
possess the confidence of the gang that
was doing the deviltry. The next de-
scent, he said. would be made on the
Flora bank. He, the good young man,
wouldnotify the officials of the exact
time of the intended raid in order that
the robbers might be appropriately
rounded up. He was sent to Decatur,
the alleged rendezvous of the robbers,
and there lived in royal style, while the
bank officials sat up nights to guard the
treasure and waited in vain for the note
of warning. It did not come, and when
the good young man had worked the
game for all it was worth be folded his
tent like the Arabs and made a sneak for
green fields and pastures new.”—Globe-
Democrat. ’
Submerged Mountain and Forest.
During a. violent storm on the English
Channel in 1888 the sea washed a cut
through an immense bank of sand near
St. Malo, laying bare a portion of an an-
cient submerged forest, much of which
is fast passing into the condition of coal.
This forest, at the beginning of the
Christian era, covered an extensive tract
along the coast, but, after a gradual
sinking for hundreds of years, it finally
became submerged by the channel
waters, and in later years was slowly
covered with drifting sand.
By the middle of the tenth century
the forest itself had disappeared, but
Mount St. Michel. rearing his head from
the centre of the great wooded tract,
could be seen for two centuries after the
forest had sunk from view, and was even
accounted dangerous to navigation as
late as the year 1600. In 1742 sections
of this primeval forest were laid bare by
a long-continued east wind,. but forest
and mountain were both well nigh for~
gotten when again exposed by the fierce
storms of 1888.—St. Louis Republic.

A Lowell young woman went to a.

the visitor as if she were an unwelcome
intruder. He seated himself" with the
air of a proprietor and continued to stare
at the fair stranger in the most insolent
manner. ‘ I ' . g .

Long and Terrible Illness
from Blood Poisoning
‘ Completely) Cured by Hood’s
_ Sarsaparilla.
Mrs. Mary E. O’Fallon, a very intelligent
lady of Piqua, Ohio, was poisoned while as-
slstingh physicians at an autopsy 5 years ago,
and soon terrible uicero broke out on her
head, arms, tongue and throat. Her hair all
came out. She weighed but 78 lbs., and saw
no prospect of help. At last she began to
take Hood’s Sarsaparilla and at once 1m-'
proved; could soon get out of bed and walk.
She says: “ I became perfectly cured by
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
and am now a well woman. I weigh 128 lbs.,
' eat well and do the work for a large family.
My case seems a wonderful recovery and
physicians look at me m astonishment, as
almost like one raised from the dead.”
