be nameless during his journey north on t political mission changed his cos tume for a full highland rig out in tending it as a delicate compliment to the land of the kilt But when he Iook 5dsat himself in the glass he found that rh9flsil0r had cut his kilt too short so ae made up his mind to put on evening 3ress He changed his upper garments and then sat down for a few moments to study his speech This set him to sleep He awoke with a start only to find himself running into the station Forgetting what had happened he thrust on his hat and appeared at the window bowing and this was how he was dressed He had a full highland costume a far as his waist above were a wnite shirt and swallow tailed coat and the entire edfice was crowned with a chimney-pot hat upon which he had sat down without noticing it His lord ships horror when he stepped upon the platform and felt the keen wind cutting lis bare legs changed to absolute agony when his valet appeared scrambling out of the

last war 13 adjudicating claim atty tinoa A NEW MICROSCOPE One V7hicn Illnminntc9 Opaque Ob jeets for Examination Several attempts have been made up to the present time to devise apparatus for the illumination of opaque objects examined under the microscope One of the best known processes is that of Liebcrkuhn which consists in applying around the objective an inclined con cave mirror which concentrates the luminous rays in reflecting them upon the preparation This apparatus can not be applied unless the frontal dis tance of the objective is sufficient to permit of the passage of the luminous rays sent obliquely It can therefore be employed only for feeble magnifica tions Moreover such oblique illumin ation is an inconvenience Mr Charles Fremont has succeeded in effecting the illumination through the ml it 3 CTd THE XKW MICROSCOPK interior of the tube of the microscope and the objective so that this new method is applicable to even the strong est magnifications The arrangement adopted as describ ed to the Academy of Sciences through Mr Marey is as follows The pencil of light L directly project ed or reflected by the mirror D enters the body A of the microscope tube through an aperture EE and meets a concave mirror C which is movable and capable of being raised or lowered in order to send the light through the lenses of the objective B A prism K is interposed in the path of the pencil in order to right it and render it parallel with the axis of the microscope before it enters the objective The mirror C and the prism K are provided with an aperture to permit of the passage of a conical tube J that allows one to perceive through the ocular the image of the preparation H given by the objective B so that such image is never met by the luminous pencil This process permits of obtaining a vertical illumination of great intensity and of perfect clearness both qualities Indispensable for photographing micro scooic imajres Rights of Bicyclers A oicyclerider sjuniown and in jured by a street car going in the di rection in which he was going His suit against the railway company to re cover damages for personal injuries was dismissed by the lower court on the ground that his admitted failure to look behind him was contributory neg ligence on his part The appellate division of the Supreme Court after reviewing the case decid ed that a person riding a wheel must first of all keep a good lookout in front and on both sides that if this be done the rider cannot keep watch behind and that to require a constant rear look out would amount to prohibition of bicycle-riding Therefore to say the least the question whether this rider was guilty of contributory negligence in not seeing the oncoming car should have been submitted to the jury A new trial was ordered The result of the new trial will inter est several millions of persons in the United States The bicycle has come to stay and the statutes and decisions re lating to its use will constitute an im portant feature of the law Youths Companion Mr Nikola Tesla the electrical ex pert and inventor has recently sug gested the possibility of employing elec

advocato of Ripans Tabales for any case of iiver trouble or indigestion said to a reporter who visited her for tne purpose of learning the particu lars of her case I had always employed a physician and did so on the Last occasion I had for one but at that time obtained no beneficial results I had never had any faith in patent mediineH but having seen Riyan3Tabule3 recommended ver7 highly in the

testimonial which should parade her name in the news papers but to this tbo elder lady argued There may be other cases just like mine and I am sure I tako great pleasure in recommending the tabules to any one affected as I was If tho telling about my case in tho papers enables some other person similarly affected to be as greatly boneflted as I have been I see no objection And the daughters
