To-day there aro many gas engines of two thousand horse-power in operation, sovorul of three thousand horse-power building, and builders will tako contracts to construct them of twlco that slro. In fuct tho problem now is not to find tho gas engine, but to provldo tho supply of gas for ma iling It In tho natural gas fields a cheap and almost Ideal fuel la at hand. In somo places tho formerly wasted gas from blast furnaces is used to de velop great power, and in others the engines aro used In connection with illuminating gas plants to run aux iliary electric lighting npparatus. Tho gas engines are compact do nway with tho need of boilers and flrotnon, avoid tho lcakago of power and hout common to steam piping, and reqnlro no high-prossuro part except tho cylin der in which tho oxploslon takes place. It was a woman who Invented "cob desacd milk," which, whllo nobody wants.it who can get tho original arti cle, la nevertheless of great value on Journeys, on shipboard and for emer gencies. It was such an emergency that led to tho first condensed milk, for Mrs. Albert Cnshlngor of New Or leans, fifty years ago, had a sick baby and must get export medical attention if It wero to live. That could not bo hud nearer than New York City, and It wus a long soa voyage away, now to keep tho little baby allvo through that voyago she did not know. But sho had put up many preserves and many Jellies In her tlmo, and she bo gan to experiment on milk, and suc ceeded, and put up n lot of Jars of her original condensed milk, wblcn fed her child through tho voyago. Tho fact Interested soveral people In Now York, and finally Mrs. Cashlngor gave her process away to a pack of Bharp fellows who mado fortunes out of con densed milk and never gave her a cent There havo boon many scientists of late who have called crimo a dlseaaf and said the guilty party should b, sent to a physician or nsylum and noH, to a Jail or prison. They held that a person whoso bodily orgens were In normal condition would not deviate from tho right way and that It Is a sin If thero are any sins to punish a person for a physical condition which ho could not help. Now, thero aro those who go still farther and say lovo Is a disease. Tho London Lancot, n conservative medical Journal, bus so far admitted the possibility of it that it has permitted Uio discussion of the subject in its columns. It would seem as If thero could bo no question on tho mntter that If thero was ever any' thing normal, healthy and most de niable It Is lovo. Lovo Is not only at the foundation of life, but is tho ono element that makes life most desir able. Without It everything oIbo Is nothing. Yet thero aro those who ar guo that lovo tends to make one not to say two morbid and melancholy. Lovesick Is so common a phrase that Its meaning Is at onco understood. Lovers are alwoys groaning and sigh ing. If they aro blissful for a time they are soon tearful, "hoping and fearing In passionate pain." Tho pleos urcs that ouce satlslled becomo fiat and Insipid. Tho presenco of tho be loved that promised au ecstasy of Joy Is often tho occasion for tumultuous feeling hardly endurable. Even In novels love Is shown to bo anything but a constant Joy, and tho greatest of poets has Indicated that tho lovo which is truo by no means runs smooth. Now, If It were tho normal, healthy matter which It Is snld to bo it ought certainly to glvo Indications of health Instead of sickness. But if lovo Is a dtseaso which wo do not admit It to be tho strongo thing about it is that-lts pain Is sweotor than any form of pleasuro and its slghlngs and tears are more delightful than ex ultation and laughter. Tho lover would not exchange his apparent mis ery for n thousand other forms of Joy and on no account would ho seek a remedy. Ho would not. bo cured If he could. To thoso who aro merely spectators lovo may seem to bo dlBeaso and may easily bo argued to bo dis ease but appearances deceive and ar guments do not count Tho average lover Is all right, Is doing well and if let alone will prove his Banity oil in good time.
