Bacteria as Engineers.

Improbable as it may seem, states aTscTentist In Hie government employ, it appears to be a fact that bacteria are able to cause the breaking down of stone walls. Recent investigations have shown that nitrifying bacteria swarm in the mud forced by the disintegration of cement in reservoirs, and it is believed that the decay of the cement results from the action of nitrous acid produced- by the bacteria. Yet these same microscopic engineers, whose myriads undermine solid walls of masonry, are nevertheless of immense use to man, because they are chief agents in the purification of water. —Philadelphia Record.

Applause by Machinery.

The third act climax of the Christmas melodrama fell very flat. “I wish,” said the manager, speaking low in the dead silence of the theater, “that I had some of those clappipg machines like they use in the French and German theaters. “These machines are made of windfilled leather. They are like two flatfish footballs. Bang them together and they make a sound exactly like hand clapping. “They are hidden in different parts of the house, and an electric wire connects them with the Wings. You just touch a button when a climax comes and the theater resounds with machinemade applause.”

AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.

Covered with Yellow Sore*—Grew Worse —Parents Discouraged—la a Week Cuticura Drove Sores Away. “Our little girl, one year and a half old, was taken with eczema or that was what the doctor called it. We called in the family doctor, and be gave some tablets and said sbe would be all right in a few days. The eczema grew worse and we called in doctor No. 2. He said she was teething, as soon as the teeth were through she would be all right. But she still grew worse. Doctor No. 3 said it was eczema. By this time she was nothing but a yellow, greenish aore. Well, he said he could help her, so we let him try it about a week. One morning we discovered a little yellow pimple on one of her eyes. Of course we ’phoned for doc tor No. 3. He came over and looked her over, and said that he could not do anything more for her, that we had better take her to some eye specialist, since it was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to doctor No. 4, and he said the eyesight was gone, but that he could help it. We thought we would try doctor No. 5. Well, that proved the same, only lie charged $lO more than doctor No. 4. We were nearly discouraged. I saw one of the Cuticura advertisements in the paper and

thought we would try the Cuticura Treatment, so I went and purchased a set of Cuticura Remedies, which cost me sl, and in three days our daughter, who had been sick about eight months, showed great Improvement, and in one Week all sores had disappeared. Of course it could not restore the eyesight, but if we had used Cuticura in time I am confident that it would have saved tlie eye. We think there is no remedy so good for any skin trouble or impurity of the blood as Cuticura. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Abbott, R. F. D. No. 9. Fulton, Oswego Co.. N. Y.. Aug. 17, ’06.”

Nothing Doing.

It was a dull morning in the police court, and the magistrate, a benedict of long standing, sat in his chair looking into space. A prisoner was brought before him and the policeman made a charge. “Intoxicated, eh?” muttered the court, absent-mindedly. “Yes, your honor,” admitted the prisoner. “Are you married?” asked the magistrate. “No,” was the reply. “Then what excuse do you have?” demanded the court, mechanically signing the commitment paper. A titter ran over the rtudience and the magistrate came to with a start, glancing apprehensively at the reporters. When court was adjourned, contrary to his usual custom, he called the newspaper men before him. “Do you find anything to write this morning?” he asked in a clearly apprehensive tone. “No,” was the reply. The magistrate looked relieved. “That’s good—that is—l —mean I thought there wasn’t anything worth writing,” he said. —New York Sun.

Running a Bank.

“Here’s a story about a new automobile bank that has just been started m New York.” “I wonder how much of a run a depositor gets for his money ?”—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

WHITE BREAD

Makes Trouble for People with Weak Intestinal Digestion. A lady in a Wis. town employed a physician who instructed her not to eat white bread for two years. She tells the details of her sickness and she certainly was a sick woman. “fn the year 18S7 I gave out from over work, and until 1901 I remained an invalid hi bed a great part of the time. Had different doctors, but nothing seemed to help. I suffered from cerebro-splnal congestion, female trouble and serious stomach and bowel trouble. My husband called a new doctor and after having gone without any food for 10 days the doctor ordered Grape-Nuts for me. I could eat the new food from the very first mouthful. The doctor kept me on Grape-Nuts and the only medicine was a little glycerine to heal the alimentary canal. “When I was up again doctor told me to eat Grape-Nuts twice a day and no white bread for two years. I got well In good time and have gained in strength so I can do my own work again. "My brain -has been helped so much, and I know that the Grape-Nuta food did this. too. I found I had been made 1)1 because I was not fed right, that Is I did not properly digest white bread and some other food I tried to lire on. “I liave never been without GrnpeNutil food since and eat It every day.

Sulger Meant Well.

Mr. Sulzer, of New York, represents in the House of Representatives what is probably the most .congested district on the East gide; Mr. Stilzeb has, of course, like every other /member, a quota of garden seeds, but as there isn't a garden or anything resembling remotely resembling a garden in the district, the amiable Sulzer has-been accustomed to trade his seeds for public documents. Last fall, however, he began to think that some of his people who live in tenements might plant the seeds in boxes on the window sills and fire escapes, eo he sent an assortment to the inmates of a model tenement lately built by a friend of the Congressman. Some time later, Sulzer, while in New York, was met by the proprietor of the tenement, who immediately buttonholed representative, to whom be unbosomed himself as follows: “See here, Sulzer, I want you to cut out that seed business. It’s the limit?”

“Why. what's the matter?” asked the astonished Sulzer, and he explained why he had sent the seeds. “Oh, you meant well, all right,” returned the friend, scornfully, “but when I visited the place the other day I found that about ten families were raising cabbage, cucumbers and tomatoes in the bath tubs.”—Rochester Post-Express.

How Animals Doctor Themselves.

Man might often take from the lower animals a lesson as to the care of himself when ill. All sorts of animals suffering from fever eat little, lie quiet in dark, airy paces and drink quantities of water. When a dog loses his appetite he knows where to find dog grass, which acts as a purgative and emetic. Sheep and cows, when ill, seek certain herbs. Any animal suffering from chronic rheumatism keeps as far as possible in the sun. If a champanzee be wounded he has been seen to stop the bleeding by a plaster of chew-ed-up leaves and grass.
