Within the next Blxty days the second largest cel lulose factory In the world will be In operation here and cornstalks will have a marketable value at this point. The plant will coot about I100.0UO. The plant being; erected at LJnden, Includes all i f that plant which has been operated at RcH kford. 111., to which has been added enough to make the new almost twice as large as the old concern. Two other plants are owned by the same com pany, a $50,000,000 syndicate of Phila delphia, which controls the patents cov erlnff the processes. They are located at Owensboro, Ky., and West Point, Va. A fourth will be erected this year at Peoria, 111. Those who fight trusts may find some extenuating features in this one, which has discovered that 160,000,000 tons of cornstalks have annually gone to waste and which undertakes to rescue this waste, make the stalks worth $3 a ton. and thus In the next 20 years increase the Income of farmers $36,000,000,000 by producing cellulose, dynamite, glue. cardboard, paper and a hundred other marketable products. Indian corn pith, for ages considered worthless, will be put on the market from this factory as a protection for battleships of all nations, as smokeless powder, dynamite and other high ex plosives, as fine art paper, as a varnish, kodak llirns, car-box packing, llller, waterproof cloth, linoleum. Imitation silk, patent leather nnlwh. face powder, silicate packing and in a hundred more as varied and novel forms of which the farmer, who has been throwing stalks away as waste, never dreamed. 1 he outy lining that part which Incloses me pun win oe rnaoe into nuur as un adulterant, as a cattle feed, a chlcken- fiittener and an egg producer. I'art of it will be made up into candy, some Into coloring dyes nnd still other el menls of it will become a part of far more novel processes. It will add thou sands of dollars to the crop receipts of Indiana farmers, w 111 consume only that which has been wuste and will furnish employment for skilled workers. The annual average corn area of the United Slates is not far from 80,000.000 acres. Kach. acre yields an average ol about 4,000 pounds of cornstalks, or a total of IBO.mtO.OiKi tuns. Of this weight 85 per cent, or LIC.OOO.ihh) tons, has value as feed, but not over 111 per cent of It Is actually fed. The other 15 per cent of the total weight, or 24,000,000 tons. Is the filth of the (stalk, which has been a total waste, or even worse. The Marsden patents cover a process of sep arating the pith from the stalk which makes It. possible for them to pay a ton for the stfilks and produce a taw material which Is worth 17 cents a pound, or $.'i4'l a ton. It Is figured that if every ton of stalks In the I'nlted Stales could be so handled. It would In crease the value of each corn crop $40.ooo,oib annually. A BUWiLAR TRAP Kmll Herrscher, a blacksmith, whos. shop Is on the Morganford road near St. LoulH, has solved the burglar prob lem. After being pet scented by night prowlers for months without redress from the police department, he took the matter m his own hands, with a remit that fulfilled all of his expecta tions. A man who Is believed to have tried to enter HcriKcher's shop the othct morning Is suffering from wounds that may result fatally. The blacksmith did not sit up and wuit for the burglar. He hit upon a plan which would make his property secure nnd at the same time penult hlrn to take his needed rest. A trap gun was his solution. The device was ull hiH own, and he natur ally feels some of the pride of an In ventor. The evidence rolled upon by the police to convict him of burglary Is that he attempted to open the door of the shop and received a portion of the charge of a shotgun, rigged by the blacksmith as ;i burglar killer. Ills arrangement was Ingenious. It 'akes a firm support to hold a ten pound duble-bui Tided tdintgun In po sition while bdng tired. Ilerrscher solved the dltllculty by resting the gun on the supports of a heavy tire-bending niachlnt. Heneath the stock of the gun he placed a wooden roller, to which both triggers were fastened with bits of w lie. The end of the roller was attached to the door by means of a rope. The own ing of the door pulled Ihe rope taut, turning the roller and dropping the triggers. When the neighbors heard the report of a shotgun at 5.30 o'clock in the morn ing they knew very well what had hauiiened for they all knew of Herr- k hei's device. Half an hour later Ames Thorp, while on his way to work, found a wounded man lying on the bank of a creek. The man who Is believed to have fall en a victim to the blacksmith's Inge, nuliy says his name is Kmll Mueller, and denies strenuously that he attempt ed to commit burglary, lie sayri his wound was caused by highwaymen. The pollen believe Mueller Is Identical with a man of that name who is a tirofessional tool thief and who was recently released from the penitentiary where he served a three-year sentence for robbing a blacksmith shop. MAKES COWARDS. Hombardmont has been found to be a waste of powder In so far as actual d.'imiig" Is concerned, but Its moral ef fects aie tremendous. W hen a shell bursts near a group of twenty men, It may kill one and wound two while the remaining seventeen es cane without a scratch. It will be found, however. thHt many of these are never the same men again. No matter how Iron-nerved they were before, they ure now Irresolute anil timiu, ami an their faculties are weakened. Very oft on they are Jeered nt by their comrades tH'cause of this hange. Hut this Is ut terly unjust In fact, their brain and iplnal cord has been Injured by being violently shaken against the walls of Ihelr bony cavities. The same thing occurs In railway nolllaslons. I'eople who were robust i.eoome oulte feeble and nervous, tho ih.v mav not have received a scratch. This curious slate In the case of sol .n.., la well rcoognlssed by doctors un der the name of the mental Injuries of explosives, Tlie Injuries are really oulte as physical as a shattered leg, for they consist of a gind of bruising of the verv delicate tissue of the spinal cord and brain. After bendlnir every energy for some .... l.sm in the Shane of the election of police matron, Texas women now feel a reasonable elstlon over their success, for In nrsi mairuii iv ie 101 lowed by others, It Is hoped, has been appointed si on aiuvhiv. LATE INVENTIONS Motormen will appreciate a new car brake attachment, which has a ratchet working vertically instead of horizon tally, a pin being Inserted in the floor to lift the ratchet into contact with the toothed wheel mounted on the brake rod. A Maryland man has Invented a ma chine for the mixing of sand, cement and crushed stone to form concrete, the materials being placed in a hopper In layers, with a small opening at the bot tom, through which the ingredients fall on a revolving cone to mix thera. Dustless roads can be rapidly made by a Oallfornian'g machine, which ha a plurality of dust-stirring fingers, which are adjusted to stir up the earth in the road, a series of pipes extending at the rear of the lingers to sprinkle oil from a reservoir mounted on the ma chine. In New York a man has patented a collar button which will save trouble, in fastening a stiff collar, the shank of the button being telescopic, with an in ternal spring which prevents the shank extending too far out and also looks it in a contracted position after the collar is fastened. Horses can easily be controlled with an improved bit attachment, which comprises two 1-shaped levers pivoted on the ends of the bit, with loops for the reins and straps which pass around both Jaws, a pull on the reins drawing the straps together to shut off the ani mal's breathing. To insure the complete closure of a gas key when turning out the light an improved lock has been designed, com prising a spring wire formed into a double loop, which Is pivoted in the fix ture and presses against the side of the key to force either side back against its shoulder. A I'ennsylvanlan has patented an im proved coal bag and unloadit.g arrange ment, comprising a central sustaining member, surrounded by a bag. which has a gathering cord at the top, the bags being suspended by the steins on a wooden support ior lining injiu ur: chute. Runaway horses can l;e brought un der control by a new dashboard at tachment which has a base bolted to the dashboard, with a Hp pivoted to clamp the rein against the base when pulled from the front, a backward pun releasing it for tightening the reins when a new hold Is taken by the driver. People struck by a new car fender cannot roll under the wheels, the len der being held In a vertical position in front of the car and pivoted in such a manner that a blow on its face causes it to fall backward and assume a hori zontal position, with the front edges raised to hold the person. The hair can be rapidly dried after washing by the use of a new comb, which has coarse teeth, formed of po rous material, capable of withstanding great heat, whereby the moisture ab sorbed by drawing the comb through the hair is evaporated by holding the comb over a flame. FASHION NOTES. a a a The Hare around the lower portion of the dress skirt, which continues to cling about the hips, will Increase rather than diminish as the spring and sum mer styles appear. There is always a certain JuuiUiness to the fur boa which makes It always, welcome when It comes to the fore semi-occasionally. Kur bo is are more f.ishionabk: this winter than regular fitted furs. Decollete gow us are cut d cldedly low Ihls year, but they have not that eflcct, for the modistes have learned how to make the edge of the gown stay out, finished with a bit of of tulle or chiffon, and while low and exposing the shoul ders almost entirely, the gown i rf rea sonably modest. l'letty little belts are worn by girls tired of the plain narrow belts. They are broad in front with two point? above and below, sloping down on eith er side and passing around the waist ir a narrow band, fastening In the hacD or at the side. These belts are of em broidery or some material to match tin trimmings of the gown. In the renewed rage for kilted ant plaited effects tine aoonniion-pluitini has also returned to favor. The modi f manipulating fabrics of nearly ever; description, both thin and heavy, ex tends to entire costumes, belted prin cesse dresses, wraps, tea Jackets, anil waists, collarettes, fichus, hats, para sols, etc. l'p-to-date lace sleeves may have el bow protectors. They may not be in tended for that, but they will serve t he purpose. A light cloth gown has long sleeves of lace, a piece of the cloth set in at the wrist and shoulder, and an other, broud at the outside seuni, with points on either edge, the piece glow ing narrower Inside the arm. It may not be to hide a sharp elbow, but II in it( hi be.

In tying the ribbon Ihe method still liked is to form somewhat long loops standing upwards, with cor reSiondlng loops below the waist. A HOT COUNTRY a a The heat In the Tugela liver country Is intense at this season. .There are two distinct seasons, ano only two summer and winter. Spring nnd autumn ure practically non-existent. Summer 1'ists from October to March. During this period the sun rises at 0 o'clock und sots at 7. In midwinter In rises at 7 and sets at 5. Twilight, such as we know In this country, doe not exist. Summer Is the rainy sea son, and the most unhealthy. At Dur ban the rainfall la 40 Inches per annum and at I-udysmlth It Is 3S Inches, while the average number of days on which ruin falls In the year Is 117 In Iudy. smith and 125 In Durban. The avernm rainfall during each summer month it about five Inches. The heat of suininet In tho uplands, where Holler's army l. now fighting. Is relieved by frequent severe thunderstorms and sallstornis the latter of which do much damage Another climatic drawback is a hot, parching; wind, which blows from thf north, sometlifles for (lays at a time generally followed, however, by a thun derstorm and cool, southwest wind. The crown prince of CJcrmany Is the only child of tho emperor who Is not left-handed, a trait common for cen turies In the royal family of Prussia.

CROWD POISON. Hy Maria Mitchell Vinton, A. M., M. D., inspector of public schools for Brooklyn: That air. and air that is fresh, is one of the prime necessities of life we hardly realize. Deprived of air, we die quickly by suffocation; without fresh air we die slowly of starvation, and a starvation as real as that from lack of food. This is "crowd poison." Thousands of wage earners in this city today are suffering from this Blow starvation, without understanding the cause and nature of the symptoms from which they suffer. "Crowd poison" confronts us at all turns in this city. In our own homes, In places of employment, in public build ings and conveyances, we are constant ly breathing Impute air and being poi soned by it, the only part of the day, perhaps, when we breathe pure air be ing the few minutes which are spent ir walking to work or in walling for th trolley which will carry us thither. So Insidiously does "crowd poison," which is the poison of impure air pro duced by a vast population In a smalj area, enter the system that it is hard to persuade people of its existence. The occupants of a work room, entering in the mornig and remaining all day, oi of a sleeping room, do not notice th? gradual withdrawal of the oxygen from the air and lis substitution by "crowd poison" thrown off by their own lungs. The sleepiness, lassitude and headache that follow It they ascribe to the fa tigue of long-continued labor. The Inability to rise brisk and fresh in the mornig, after a night spent in a :iose room, the lack of appetite for the mornig meal, the pallor and muddy complexion that ensue after a while, they do not recognize as the results of lays Hnd nights spent in Impure air. They seek relief from their ailments in taking medicines, rather than in the simpler method of cure by exercise in the open air. One of the diseases, for example, that results from the breathing of impure uir is the so-called anaemia, or poverty of blood, with its symptoms of pallor, dizziness nnd shortness of breath on exertion. Another of Ihe enemies permitted tc enter the system by lack of pure air is the dreaded consumption. Lungs un accustomed to breathe free, full breaths of pure air are never fully expanded, and the upper, unused portions of them are thus rendered a suitable soil for the germs of this disease ot find lodg ment in. Once lodged, poor blood, lacking Ir the proper nourishment, will not en able the enfeebled lungs to resist the egrrns and destroy them. Send such a patient away from the city, give these lungs a chance to expand in a pure country air or a mountain climate, and the germs are. destroyed, and the pa tient gradually returns to a normal slate of health. Hundreds of cases of consumption are cured every year by living in the open air, vhile very few recover in the confinement of cities. 1'hyslcians have learned that all diseases are more suc cessfully treateil In the open air, or In well ventilated rooms, but they find it hard to make the public realize this. Fresh air, by Its oxygen, is one of the most important foods for the body, equally Important with the dally meals. It gives the healthy color to the skin, puiilles and enriches the blood, aids di gestion, feeds the nerves and helps trie brain to do good work. Air enters the lungs at every breath, ;md In the air sacs the oxygen filters through into the blood vessels of the lung;. From them the blood is carried to the heart, and thence punmped out into the large blood vessels of the body and carried to every organ, leaving its life-giving oxygen and taking up a freight of waste matter, poisonous ref use of the body, that Is returned to the lungs and brethed out Into the air of the rooms. It is this poisonous waste matter, this "crowd jKilson," that renders the air of rooms so Impure, that gives its offen sive odor to street cars, theater gal leries and closely occupied work rooms. To one coming in from the open air It is very noticeable, while by the occu pants of the rom It is unobserved. The removal of the oxygen from, the uir, by breathing it over and over, alone makes the air valueless, while the throwing off of waste matter by the lungs makes It positively poisonous. The stret railroad companies, the ferry officials, the employers of labor, the proprietors of department stores, fur nish us this poisonous air to breathe, and we say nothlng.provided they warm it for us, and so lull us into comfort able unsuspiclousness. We ought to force them to furnish us pure air instead, and we should, if we realized that they are shortening our lives for us. The system of steam heating used In most public, places and conveyances helps to burn up the oxy gen from the air, and thus makes it useless if not impure. Kspeclally do growing children need fresh air; yet few of our public schools are well ventilated. We should not wonder If the children seem dull when breathing Impure air, for this makes them tired and sleepy. There ure two ways of securing a good supply of fresh air, and fresh air Is the best tonic we can possibly take. Oxygen pure Is administered In many places ns a medicine, for which people are willing to pay high prices. Yet oxygen Is free to all for the mere breathing of it out of! doors, and were we content to spend two hours a day in exercising In the open iar we might thus obtain free of cost all the oxygen we may desire. The first method of securing fresh air is by ventilating our own houses by day and night. Night sir is thought by many to be injurious. This is an error. Only In malarious countries is night uir Injurious, in our own city the night air Is us good as the day air, pcrhups bet ter, ns It l now free from the smoke and the gases of factories. In our own houses we should be able to obtain a fresh supply dally, arter getting the workers off to business and the children off to school, by throwing open the beds and opening the windows jnd letting In the outdoor air. Hy night we should allow pure air to enter our rooms and give outlet to the Impure air by opening the windows a little at the lop and. bottom; the cold air on enter ing Is warmed by the heat which rises to the celling, and the bad air, falling to the floor, passes out below. Of course a direct draught must be avoid ed. Ventilation Is especially needed in sick rooms. Illness renders the air more Impure, at the same time that It I n crenses the sufferers need of fresh air. To think that a free supply of fresh air will Injure a child 111 with a con tagious disease, such- ns measles or scarlet fever, or one suffering from pneumonia, Is an error that cannot bo too much emphasized. The. second way of obtaining fresn air Is hy going out after It, that Is by means of exercise in the open air. Mus cular exertion Increases the amount of air drawn Into the lungs, at the same time that It adds to the strength and tone of the body. Kxerclse should be regular and systematic to attain the best results. Mini mm Many People So Consider Wonderful Cures of tba DR. E. O. SMITH OF flANSAS CITY.
