Suggestion for Dressing Table.

A pleco of beveled glnss, tho exact

mings nro simply stunning with this
material; and tho looso designs car
rapidly bo copied by tho girl who
knows how to sow, for thero Is no
8omblnnco of a fit to thorn. Tho
only thing Is to got tho sleeves big

Just tho correct shawl point In tho

INVENTION
New Oil Engine.
A now oil englno is tho recent and
fruitful development of tho Uternal
combustion motor and Its adaptation
to tho uso of crudo oils or oils of a
specific gravity that precludes their
uso In motors of tho ordinary typo.
Llko all engines sullablo for crudo oil
tho latest Innovation has provision
for tho Injection of water Into tho cyl
inder before compression. This has
tho effect of allowing a much higher
compression without prelgnltlon than
Is qrdlnarlly possible, and it has other
Important effects. Tho builders say
that tho water vapor prevents tho de
composition of tho petroleum to nn
extent, enabling tho englno to run
long periods with crudo oils without
leaving nn excess of deposit on tho
vaporizer's walls. It Is not easy to
understand why water should prevent
decomposition of tho potroloum. Tho
englno works on tho four stroke cycle
and uses tho heavy black petroleum
plls and tho semi-refined or Inter
mediates, as well as tho ordinary re
fined lamp oil. Thero Is a cylinder
lourteon Inches In diameter, giving
fortj -seven brako horso power with
horso power with crude oils. On tho
suction stroko of tho nlstnn air Is
drawn Into tho cylinder through tho
main air valvo, and oil Is pumped
through tho oil sprayer Into tho va
porizer, which receives a further sup
ply of nlr through a shifting valve. At
tho samo tlmo water Ib pumped
through tho water sprayer and ontors
tho vaporizer. This chargo Is then
compressed, nnd, ns tho crank of tho
englno passes tho Inner dead center,
Is ignited by tho hot igniting tube,
giving tho working stroke. Tho ex
haust valvo then opens to allow tho
burnt chargo to escapo, completing
tho cycle of operations. Tho Ignitions
aro continuous on all loads, and tho
ignition tube Is therefore retained at
tho required temporaturo without tho
aid of a lamn excont when startlnc
tho englno. Tho speed of tho machlno
wnter and oil Injected, so that on
heavy loads full charges of oil and
water aro delivered, whllo on light
loadB small charges aro given.
Automatic Railway Signal.
Misreading of signals and falluro if
execute them aro tho most potent
causes of accidents on railways and
It has been tho work of many in
ventors to lessen theso dangers by
Introducing automatic Blgnals, which
shall relievo tho human mind of tho
responsibility ns far as possible. Thus
the block systems now show signals
which aro supposed to provent tho
train next following from running

vlgllnnco and action of tho engineer,
nnd so it may bo wlso to go a Btop
further and mako the block system
not only set a signal against a train
following on tho samo track, but also
operato a mechanism to bring the sec
ond train to n standstill should tho
slgnnl be unheeded.
How this may bo dono Is shown In
tho Illustration. Thero is a levo?
depending from the englno on tho
small forward truck, with a cord con
necting with tho throttlo and also
with tho boll and whistle. Besido tho
track Is a long, light rail, which Is
elevated or depressed after tho man
ner oi tno signal arms. A revcrso

Electric LauncKes In Venice.

Naples, Regglo, Calabria, and Messina.
The authorities of tho province of
Homo proposo to build an electric
railway between tho city ot Rome and
CIvItp Castellana. Tho city council
of Venice has decided to purchase a
number of electric launches for use
on tho canals of that city. Tho gen

whoso offlco Is In Rome, has received
permission to purchaso 150 electric

company is planning to build an elec

Chlavenna.
A Pocket Umbrella.
An umbrella Bmall enough to go In
side a pocket Is a recent invention. It
Is designed on the prlnclplo of tho tele
scope, and consist of a series of tele
scopic slides, a carrying caso and a
piece of silk covering. On opening tho
caso in which It is contained tho con
tents resemble a bundle of steel rods
In a wrapping of silk. Theso aro, wltn
a llttlo manipulation, converted into
an umbrella of tho orthodox shape,
the short handle of which draws out
Into a stick of tho req"ulsito length.
Tho covor ia described as bolng quite

estimate of tho probable cost
Tho chicken houso represented in
tho accompanying cut is 12x24 feet;
It is 5 feet high on tho south side and
8 feet high on tho north sldo. It Is
built of concrete, tho walls being
six inches thick, with 2-Inch strapping
and Is lathed and plastered. Port

land cement being used Instead of
llmo in tho plaster. By using Port
land cement In tho plaster tho chick
ens will not pick tho plaster off. The
floor is of concreto and a wooden
floor is laid on top of it. This will
keep the rats from getting under tho
floor or troubling tho chickens in nnj
way.
The cost of tho concreto wortt would
bo 10 barrels of Portland cement,
making tho concrete ono of cement to
nine of grnvel, 9 days' labor for ono
man and 12 yards gravel. Tho other
matorlal and labor would amount to
about i for lath and plastering and
?27 for windows, door, roof and labor.
Tho insldo can 'be sheathed up with
matched stuff If desired instead of
being lathed and plastered, but tho
walls can be moro easily kept free
from vermin If plastered. In order to
get tho sunlight Into tho chicken
house, tho windows should not bo
moro than ono foot from tho floor, It
higher than that tho rays of tho sun
will not strlko tho floor as It should.

Poplar Shoots.
S. W. M. How may the roots ot
poplar trees In a neighboring garden
bo prevented from throwing up shoots
In my garden?
Tho poplar shoots which como up in
the yard may be prevented ny sinking
a strip of galvanized Iron along the
edgo of the garden. Tho roots from
which tho shoots spring aro usually
within a fow Inches of tho surface and
a strip of galvanized iron one foot wido
should suffice. If this is not found
practicable, tho roots should be pre
vented from ontorlng tho garden bv
means of a ditch, or in somo other
way. Onco tho roots aro prevented
from entering tho garden tho shoots
may bo gradually eradicated by dig
ging them out.

S. B. What Is tho cause of a hen

This is undoubtedly a caso of jaun

ment brought on by Improper feeding
of unsuitable food In too great quanti
ty. It would much simplify matters
If you had stated tho age of and kind
of fowls you havo, on what was fed
and In what quantities. Very often
such complaints are tho result of tho
feeding of too much soft food In the
shape of mash. As a result tho giz
zard Is not exercised enough, and dls
easo follows. Tho mash should bo
varied from time to tlmo and not fed
too frequently or In too great quanti
ty. A healthy gizzard means a healthy
bird, and no bird can be In proper
health without Its gizzard getting work
to do. How. By feeding a well-balanced
ration.

Starch is freo from all Injurious chem

a 12-oz. package It is becauso he has
a stock on hand which ho wishes to
dispose of before ho puts in Defiance.
