of tho most intensely interesting scion

of Norfolk pooplo and their guests to

its discovery liiodo of mauufuoturo and
described its chemical proportios Ho
handled tho material with impunity yet
performed feats that had the appearance
of being littlo less than legordomain
Tho woudorful mauuor in whioh tho
extremes of heat uud cold woro pro
duoed in an ico tumbler without its
being molted was one of the most mar
vellous oxporimouts An olootrio light
carbon was burned in tho tumbler and
at the sumo timo was used to stir
berries which woro frozen so solid that
thoy orushed like glass beads In this
demonstration there was a difference in
temperatures of several thousand de
grees Nails wero drivoa with a ham-
mor or mercury frozen solid A
lighted cigarette was immersed in tho
liquid Hashed up like powder and dis
appeared showing its usefulness in do

it rang like steel and was brokou with a
hammer liko rock whiskey was frozen
oolid and pieces passed through the
audience The liquid was poured on a
cake of ice and sizzled around ou it like
water poured ou a red hot stove The
speaker informed the audience that ho

reply to thnt request
Manltoti Col March 27 Hero I am

lightful places in Colorado mountains
but Manitou ovor has boon aud will bo
its most favorite resort
Very many tourists supposo thnt tho
mineral springs aro at Colorado Springs
As a mattor of fuot nil of them aro at
Manitou Manitou is Hvo milos from
Colorado Springs and lies amid tho foot
hills of Pikos Peak It is the moro do
sirablo plaoo of tho two to spond an out

from tho winds from tho plains by rea
son of its sheltered location and in sum
mor it is coolor in that it is nearer tho

It wns my very good fortuuo to moot
hero Mr Moroland tho exalted ruler of
tho Colorado Spriugs lodge of Elks No
Hut aud found him a most genial man
A visit to their lodgo was most heartily
enjoyed It is ouo of tho most prosper

of tho oharitablo institutions of tho oity
not couliuiug its relieving of distress to
its own members but oftou going out

have brought It tho prosperity it so
richly deserves Tho Hiawatha olub
house located horo in Manitou is the
proposed Homo for Elks and no finer
location could bo selected Tho build
ings and grouuds aro espocially adapted
for such an institution and can bo se
cured at a price far bolow thoir original
cost or thoir actual worth
Tho snow has not as yot disappeared
from Pikos Peak sullloioutly to mako it
possible to oporato tho cog road whioh

Why nt nil hours of the dny nnd night the

Cockroaches have tho hnhlts of n con

Because of this and also because It Is a
Rcnvengor for all despise the truly eco

variety called the Croton bug because of
Its early recognition of the value of a
system of waterworks by following the
pipes of which It could reach the home
of nil and attain warmth nnd moisture
almost equaling the long lost days of the
carboniferous era the vanished Eden of

ye see and its seed aud fertilizer and
all that to buy But trot out yer glasses
mister and well see if we cau trade
So the doctor opened his case and com
menced to try on the glasses
As each was fitted on his nose the
farmer first looked gravely on to the page
of tho weekly paper aud then off at the
wull
No that uiut it yet he would say
At last he seemed to get discouraged
I dont believe yeve got anything la

Aud he did fix me said the farmer
telling about the matter tho other day
When I went to look at them glasses
