The jwtient assured Dr. Jtich that he had Amn able to distingni&h colors correctly and with confidence un to the summer of 1889. He said that through overexer tion and inmifllcieiicy of sleep he had then suffered from violent headache for two weeks, and that afterword he saw everything as if t were red. The latter nymptom had continued for three months, after which time lie had loht all gentia tion of color. In the beginning of May, IHiH). he presented himself again, deekr. ing that he had Ierfectly regained the power to distinguish colors. A thorough examination completely confirmed the assurance given by the patient, who was conseunentlv airuin tit for servipn. Dr. Reich believes that "erythropsy" is due to central mischief. The case seems to uliow that sensation of color is nerfeetiv independent of the physiological func tion. .New York tieilger. Metal Protected by Oil. If the method of charging cottonseed oil with lead, which is said to have been discovered, is found practicable, the value of that abundant prod net will be Kreatly increased. The process as at present defined is of the utmost simplic ity. One gallon of pure cottonseed oil is placed in a suitable iron vessel, into which twenty pounds of molten lead are ixmred. After a thorough stirring the lead separates into globules, and when the oil has been injured off, after cooling, there is found to le about seventeen IKiuudsof lead, the remainder having Jieen al8orled by the oil. On the lead being aguin melted and the operation repeuted to the fifth pour ing the amount of lead absorbed being less at each succeeding pouring the total amount of lead absorbed is about ten pouuds. The oil thus charged with lead is then used as a paint, being ap plied in the ordinary way to metallic urfaces. It is claimed that this liquid, which adheres closely and becomes very hard, is especially useful in protecting metals from oxidation or corrosion. New York Telegram. Killing n ArtlMt'i Pet. A little story is told of Du Manrier. the well known artist of Punch, the Englishman's materialized idea of wit, hnmor and burlesque. The artist lives in a beautiful country home near Lon don, atid one of his pet views is from his ntudy window across his own lawn out lieyond to the Undue-ape surrounding llarrow. An American, of America to the west, recently visited him fur a day ml Mr. Du Manrier was showing his guest almiit the place. "There," lie said, coming to his favor ite window, "is the prettiest thing of all. That is Harrow." The American looked out for a minute or two. "Harrow?" he said inquiringly. "Yes," repented the artist, "Harrow." "Is that so'' questioned the visitor. "Well, now, do you ktiow, I took it for a lawn mower." And he wasn't joking, either. He had overlooked the landscape entirely, and was looking at an agricultural machine on the lawn, and the artist's heart was "broken. Detroit Free Press. Oliver Siiperatltluiiii.

There is a pretty baby in Chinatov. who enjoys the proud distinction of hav ing been baptized in a purple velvet brocaded dress imported from Paris Her mime is Huey Mey Lan. The bap tistnnl name, Sney Mey, means crystal She is the daughter of Tom Yin Kim Lan. a well known dealer in Chinese and Japanese curios. The little one is ten months old Her handsome oostnme although of expensive European ma tenal. was made up in the Chinese con ventional style for babies, that is. with loose blouse and wide trousers. Little Suey Mey was baptized on Sun day in the Chinese Methodist mission by me kcv. v. J. Masters, pastor of the church of which Suey Mey's parents are mem tiers. She has one sister, eight years old, who was baptized some time ago. The numlier of Chinese babies who have heen christened in a style similar to wtute Haines is surprisingly large. Chinese mothers who have adopted the Christian faith carry their babias to church as early as possible, and Chinese parents olten take their children with them to the commaulon table just as soon as the little one are old enough to be taught. They are beautifully dressed, often in rich silks, and the infant claw in the Chinese Sunday school looks litffr ally like a convention of oriental dolls in all the colors of the rainbow. San Francisco Chronicle. Narrow and Broad Oansta. How many jieople rememlier the fa mous "battle of the gauges?' The rio tory of what was once known aa the "narrow gauge," but is now the stand ardor national gauge, since narrower ones are not unknown, is so absolute that this is the last year of the existence ol Brunei's measurement for the Great Western Railway company's permanent way. For many years on that line the broad gauge has been disappearing, and. as announced in our report of the com pany's half yearly meeting, the change is to he complete by the 20th of May next. The disappearing gauge, origi nally adopted on the Great Western railway on Brunei's plans, is 7 feet. The common gauge, now roughly called the 4-foot way, is really 4 ft. 8 in That is the difference between the rails, the fractional measurement laiing. we believe, explaiued by the fact that origi nally the width of the rails together made up an additional 8i inches, and gave a wheel track of exactly 5 feet to suit the earlier locomotives and tr.iins. The heads of rails are now much broader varying on the different lines from 2 to H inches, or together from 5 to inches. London News. BOKUS0T0ht MISSOURI RltKR It Jt V TIMS TABLE.
