ELEVATED ELECTRIC RAILROAD.

As may be seen in the illustration, the track supported by a single lino of columns. The car rests upon two wheels (one at each end), Instead of upon eight (four at each end), as in the ordinary passenger car. The car is steadied horizontally by eight guide wheels (four at each end), assisted by small rollers, one projecting from beneath each guide wheel, and having an upward bearing against the side rails which form tho horizontal guides for tho car trucks. These guide rollers, which are only called into play in case of an unduo oscillating or rocking motion of the car resulting from obstructions or too great speed, aro safeguards against the car leaving the track. They also enable the car to pass around curves of short radii at a reasonable speed without danger of derailment

Tho plan and cross soction of a box girder for supporting the main bearing rail is as shown in tho cut. This is only one of many methods which may bo used for sustaining the weights of heavy trains at high speeds, another support boing an 1 beam resting upon tho columns. Trusses of various forms may also be used.

Ono difficult problem iu the perfecting of t.hia system of road was that of switching bat Mr. White claims to have not only solved tho problem, but to have made the arrangement of tho switch such that tho track is never open, oven should tho switch be turned the wrong way, as thoboarii^ wheels can a

Tho Soaring of llirtls.

W. H. Pickcriug, writing from Harvard College observatory to Science, presents what ho believes to bo tho true explanation of the phenomenon of the soaring of birds.

Imagino piece of paper floating in the air. Tho wind takes it and carries it along horizontally with its own velocity. After it has assumed the velocity of the wind, there is but ono force noting on it., namely, tho vertical ono duo to its own weight. Imagine now a bird under tho same circumstances. Instead of traveling with tho wind, as everybody who has watched a soaring bird knows, ho travels round ir.ul round in circles, each ono little higher than the last, and each ono a little farther along in the direction towards which tho wind is blowing. Now, when he travels with tho wind, he attains nearly its velocity, nnl then turns find travels against it, rising rapidly at tho #ame time, till ho is nearly stationary, or perhaps is even going a litUo backwards, relatively to tho ground. Ho then turns and travels with tho wind again, either moving nloug horizontally, or perhaps dropping somewhat nearer tho earth, until lie attains his original velocity, when the cycle is repeat**! Comparing his motion with that of tin- paper, we find that ho does not move along so fast there must, therefore, bo some compensating advantage obtained in order uso up tho surplus ^rgy derived from tho wimt hi tho above Uguro let repliant tho direction of tho wind, and A tho position of tho bird.

The Phonograph Foreshadowed.

Mr. D. Walkinshaw writes from Bristol as follows: "One of Plato's disciples, anticipating Munchausen, compared bis master's thoughts to words frozen in the air as soon as uttered, to be heard long after when thawed out by a warmer season, as voices falling out of the air upon astonished travelers. In Hood's Comic Annnnl for 1839 we find tho following adumbration of the phonograph: 'In this century of inventions, when a self acting drawing paper has been discovered for copying visible objects, who knows but that a future Niepce, or Daguerre, or Horachel, or Fox-Talbot, may find out some sort of Boswellish writing paper to repeat whatever it bears? Similarly, about a quarter of a century before tho invention of the telephone and the phonograph, the editors of The Artisan reported the meetings cf their 'club' by means of an imaginary 'reporting box,' which was always placed upon tho table, and faithfully reproduced all that was said by the distinguished members."

The Happiest Country In Europe.

According to Dr. Alico Vickery the first place belongs to Franco, chiefly because French families do not exceed manageable dimensions. Sho says: "In the first place, while the surplus of women in the United Kingdom and in Germany amounts to nearly three-quarters of a million and one million respectively, Franco, in 1881, had a surplus of only 92,000 women, and, as a consequence, marriages aro more prevalent in proportion to population in France than elsewhere and, '•^nsly enough—contrary to the general in this country—France has the ortion of illegitimate births. 5 to 1867 tho percentage of all trths was 7.2 in France &2 in

Sweden 11 in Austria, nd 23 France has the lowest )irth j-^ronean countries—viz., 23.8.

Signor Blitz.

|iN4He first of tho great prestidigitateurs in America was Signor Blitz. Antonio Blitz, prestidigitatcur and ventriloquist, died in

Philadelphia, Jan. 28, 1S77. He left two daughters—Jennie, who married James Van Zandt, a cousin of ex-Governor Van Zandt, of Rhodo Island, and Ada, who married a New York man—also a son, Arthur, who made no headway in tho world and died. The old vontriloquist, Blitz, had two or three assistants who attended him in his performances, and some of them performed in his namo in various parts of the country after his death. The old magician was an English Jew and his wife was Irish. Their first daughter, Jennie, referred to, is tho mother of Mario Van Zandt, tho opera singer, now in Europe*.

Chinese Cities.

There aro no ofiicial records of tho population of Chinese cities, and guc&cs at the number of their inhabitants must depend on tbo gucsser. Canton is "estimated" to haw I,G00,000 inhabitants. Twenty years ago it had l,2.j0,000. Pekin, in 1870, had an "estimated" population of 1,500,000 now it has one (also estimated) of 1,000,000. The probability is that the largest Chinese city hasn't more than two-thirds of its "estimated" population. Tho city of London, which Is "London proper," has a population, according to tho census of lSSl, of 60,652. Tlio great aggregation of houses and conglomeration of people which we call London contains, included in tho metropolitan and the city police districts, a population of 4,766,001.

ricnty of Room.

It is very difficult to estimate the number of individuals in a crowd with any approach to accuracy. Thousands of people can stand in a very small space. From tbe following statistics it will he seen that there is plenty of room on the earth for all the people who inhabit it, and that there is no fear of our planet becoming over populated at present The entire population of tho world (now estimated at 1,400,000,0001 could stand on the {pace occupied by New York, Brooklyn and Jersey City. The state of New York would in this way accommodate 500 times the present population of the world. The entire population of the world, placed side by side, and allowing two feet to each person, would encircle the earth twenty times.

Origin of County Court*.

The extent of settlement had become SO great in Viij^nla to 1022 that it was inconvenient to bi all legal causes to the capital at Jamestown, and inferior courts were appointed in convenient places to relieve the governor and council (who correlated the superior judiciary} of a heavy fca sn of business, and to render business more accessible and leas expensive.

The comparative tables of ttife population and area of the various countries of tho world, taking them with their dependencies, which appear in the new edition of The Statesman's year book, have been compiled trdfi Professor Levasseur's statistics furnished to the International Statistical institute, and may be described as presenting old facts in anew and striking light. In point of area the British empire stands at the head of the list, the number of thousands of square miles being 9,839, Russia following closely with 8,644. Though the Chinese empire is but a little less than one-half as extensive as its neighbor, in population China, with her 404,000,000, tops all the countries. of the earth. The British empire comes next, with 307,000,000, and Russia with only 104,000,000 while Franco has but 71,000,000, the United States 58,000,000 and the German empire 48,000,000. The comparative* rates of increase of population of the European states since 1800 also yield some instructive resulta Thus, while the United Kingdom has since that period risen from 16,250,000 to 37,000,000, Russia in Europe from 35,000,000 to 88,000,000, and the German empire from 27,000,000 to 47,000,000 (including Alsace and Lorraine), France has only advanced from 83,000,000 to 33,250,000. Professor Levasseur estimates that between 1710 and 1874 the entire population of the world about doubled—the figures being 082,000,000 at the former date, reaching 1,391,000 at the latter period.

A Brief Account of tine Wonderful DlH oorery That Linked the Name of BeaJamln Franklin with the History of That

Marvelous Force Called Electricity.

The of Fraaklin will always be linked with the history of electricity—that marvelous force which has in recent years been productive of such remarkable results, in the many and various purposes to which it is applied. It was Benjamin Franklin's patient and intelligent investigations that were rewarded by the brilliant discovery of the identity of the electric fluid and lightnfrng

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AND HIS KITE.

One day, seeing a thunder storm approach-, ing, he went, accompanied by his son, to a shed where, having raised a kite, ho fastened a key to tho lower extremity of the hempen cord, insulating it by attaching'it to a beam with a piece of silk. Immediately after he observed some loose threads of the string rise and stand erect, and, on presenting his knuckle to the key, to his great delight he drew from it the well known spark. His emotion was so great at the completion of this discovery, which made his name Immortal, that he felt he could almost have paid for his discovery with his life.

Your Toys Where They Come From.

Have you ever thought about it your toys, I mean, where they come from and who makes them? Of late years there has sprung up quite a trade in our own country with manufacturers of toys, especially tin and wooden ones but the bulk of toys are of foreign manufacture.

Tho principal toy countries are France, Bavaria, Thuringia and Bohemia but toys are also made for exportation in Sweden, Norway, Belgium and Holland. The French toy is decidedly the best, both in artistic design and workmanship but it is also very much the most expensive, and tho trade scarcely increases from year to year, whilst the German toy trade advances in leaps and jumps, and tho article becomes cheaper and cheaper. Sweden and Norway make chiefly thfagg of wood from them we get our cups and balls, our nests of turned boxes, etc. Belgium follows in this, and in nearly all other articles of manufacture, closely upon tho plans and models of Franco and Holland, as might be expected, makes lead soldiers.

England also makes toys, chiefly paper dolls, Vhich are manufactured by ono house in Birmingham to tho extent of 200,000 annually but this work of doll making in England is confined to the larger towns—nothing of this kind is done by tho peasantry.

In Germany many towns, and moro especially tho quaint old towns of Nuremberg and Leipsac, aro surrounded by a great community of

peasant

toymakers. These people,

whoso picturesque hamlets nestle in the depths of tho Thuringia forest, or dot tho opon country, are engaged during the entire winter in this employment.

Tho proccss of toy making is varied, but always simple. In somo cases certain members of the family develop a talent for making certain parts of a particular toy, and tho different pieces composing it aro made by different hands, and put together by still another worker. Sometimes the toy is entirely made by one person, but this seldom occurs where a family works together.

AY EVENING

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.

Practical SauMtlw That Will Xnterect Thoee Who Snthr ttom Sleeplessness. Sleep, like many other functions, is merely a a natter of circulation and of diminished supply of blood to the brain. When we goto bed with our brains still active and worry over the day'swork or excite ourselves over the day's pleasure, we do not go to sleep and shall not until by some mmmi we have driven or drawn the blood from the brain to some other part of the body. The worst possible thing is to keep the head hot by wrapping it up or using very soft pillows. A hair pillow is often better than a pillow of feathers. A warm foot bath or hip bath is a common expedient, and the yet simpler one plunging the hands and wrists into hot water is often efficacious a towel or handkerchief wrung out of ean de cologne and water every one has tried and an ice bag to the head is the same idea more thoroughly carried out. Robust persons, whose circulation is quick, recommend a cold water or cold air bath, on the principle that the blood driven from the skin by the shock will come back presently with redoubled vigor. A hot bottle or hot brick is a safer and pleasanter remedy for weak people and for children, who, when they worry about their lessons after they go to bed, generally havo a burning head and ice cold feet.

The surest way to get a bad night is to eat an indigestible supper but, on the other hand, a small quantity of light food taken just before bedtime often promotes sleep, especially in those who have been exercising their brain since the last meaL A cup of hot milk or cocoa, or, better still, a cup of beef tea or beef extract, sends many a person to sleep who without it ould have lain tossing for houra Hot lemonade answers the purpose in many cases, and is, besides, a food that is often wanted. Little children who have tea early often sleep better after a bit of bread and butter or a biscuit and a drink of milk and sometimes, if they wake up and lie awake an hour or so, they sloop again quickly if they are fed. Many bad sleepers might pursue the same plan with advantage. The remedy depends on the very simple fact tha' nothing can be in two places at once, and that if the blood is called to the stomach for purposes of digestion it cannot remain in the bead to be wasted in worrying.

It is to be regretted that some remedy for the distressing wakefulness of old persons cannot be added. They do not need so much sleep as young ones, and it is quite natural that it should not come to them. But the days are long and the evenings are dull, and they can't see to amuse themselves, and so they retire when 10 o'clock strikes, and hope (rather unreasonably) to sleep till late next morning. Nature asks them for less, and they give her more, and grumble because she does not accept. Moreover, they have often discounted the powers of sleep that they have by dozing during the day. Some of the above suggestions may be useful even here, however, and in addition it may be said that the complaint of sleeplessness is seldom made by women of the hard working classes, who, if they go to bed at 10, rise long beforo 8, and orrnpv themselves to weariness during the day.

Troublesome Finger JSaiU.

Most persons are familiar with those troublesome bits of skin which loosen at the roots of the finger nails it is caused by the skin adhering to the nail, which growing outward drags the skin along with it, stretching it until one end gives way. To prevent this, the «iHn should bo loosened from the nail once a week, not with a knifo or scissors, but with a blunt ivory instrument and this is best done after soaking the fingers in warm water, then pushing the skin bacl^ gently and slowly.

Remedy for Headache.

Dr. Little, of Dublin, states that migranous headache is best relieved by twenty grains of salicylate of sodium in a wineglassful of water, made effervescent by the addition of a dessertspoonful of effervescent granular citrato of caffeine. Tho doctor has not found the latter alone efiicicnt.,

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.

Fads In the Fashion of One'H Name—A if *4 Minor VIrtne of Society. Odb of the fashions of the day which eti­

On the other hand it is a fad quite as late nnH even more exclusive for a lady possessing an uncommon patronymic, or who for any reason, such as being tbo wife of tho oldest representative of the family, considers herself entitled to precedence of others of the same name, to drop all Christian names and figure simply as "Mrs. Penrhyn" or "Mrs. Johnson," as the case may be. But unless there are some very distinctive circumstances to justify it, such a proceeding is npt to cause both confusion and ill wilL

A Capital Social Virtue.

"It is not in tbe least unusual," says Mrs. Sherwood, "to bear two ladies who have been diking, together moot intimately separate and each fall to abusing the other furiously: "Oh, yesl Frederica is very pretty, very winning you know, but she cannot be trusted she is such a story tellerf Or, "Rosamond would lode to much better if die didnt touch up her eyes and her cheeks." Or, "Frida has a tongue—oh, such a mauvaise langue!" etc. Now, the morals cS even the lightest fashion tohould silence these critics if they are at all intimate with Frida, Frederica and Rosamond. If one thinks so ill of these ladies, why associate with them! Why kiss Rosamond if she paints? Why whisper In tbe ear of Frederica so intimately if she tells Beer

Scihples 6f Adulterated Foods.

The state of Massachuseets has given a deal of attention to the subject of adulterations, and the report of the I chemist in charge has been recently published. During the year 1887. 1,678 sarn-

good food

Eles

of ar icles used as food were examled, of which 1,178 proved to be pure and 488 to be adulterated. Of the impure only a very small portion, and these rarely used in large quantities, were found to be adulterated with ingredients deleterious to health. Tho chief of these were molasses, of which twenty-five samI pies out of eighty-fivo were found to contain corn glucose or salts of tin. or both baking powders, of which twenty-one samples out of twenty-nine were found to contain alum and extract of almonds, two samples .out of nine being found to contain nitro-benzol. Nearly all the adulterants were found to bo harmless ingredients added to cheapen the product, and the purchaser, while being defrauded, was injured only in his pocket.

The American people aro bargain hunters they buy things because they appear to be cheap. To accommodate them much of the food is adulterated. Coffee is cheapened with burned rye and chicory ginger contains rice and cornmeal allspice lias buckwheat honey has glucose butter has lard, and lard has tallow maple sugar has muscovado olive oil has cottonseed oil, and so on to the end of tho chapter.

Wasps and Bees.

Bees never injure sound fruit. According to Popular Gardening, wasps will puncture"grapes, etc., but with bees it is a physical impossibility. Thoir mandibles are not so constructed, nor aro they strong enough to bo used in puncturing fruit. Numerous experiments have been tried among the rest one of putting the hives in an apartment and taking the bees' food away and making them fast for a few days at a time, all the time exposing grapes, etc. but the bees would not do any Injury even under those conditions. If fruit bursts or is injured by tho birds or wasps or something else, tho bee will soon suck all the juice but that is an advantage rather than an injury to the grower, as the sound fruit is apt to rot by coming in contact with such, or by tho juice flowing over the sound fruit.
