The East Normal School is winning for it self an enviable reputation because of the SUCCESS :of its Graduates, j! The fall term will open Aug. 31, 1908. For catalogue and special infor mation, address E. L KEMP, Principal A SPARKPROOF SMOKESTACK. Simple Device Which -May 8ve Mil lion! In Timber. A sparkproof aniokeslAck haa been Invented which promises relief to tha forest fir fifihters If it shoald be adopted by railroads traversing forest '. to C3. i Auer being tested for some ttm on a Kentucky railroad, says the Techni cal World, It was demonstrated that not a spark escaped from the stack. C j well I'oes the Forestry Department at Washington think of this Ingenious Invention thnt It has asked the New York State Public Fervire Commission to compel all railroads In the State to eiiuip their locomotives with the new stack. The principle which led to the In vention of the sparkproof stack la that all solids emerging from a loco motive smokestack, influenced by the presaure of the exhaust, hug close to '.he edge of the pipe and only the imoke cornea up through the centre. p thia new stack a simple trap caiches the. sparks and cinders at the edge of the circle and sends them falling down sbutes arranged on either side of the stack to the roadway be low. How te Shoot with a Revolver. To begin sighting along the barrel of a six-shooter, as In target gallery practice, is a handicap to the, man who wants to learn the art at it best The hand and eye; of course, work together with all weapons and In all combats; but there Is a difference be tween the eye-general and tha eye particular. The best form of boxing or fearing that Is what the use of the six-shooter means. You point : your Est or your foil Instinct You cannot help pointing your finger directly and Etralslit at tiny oliject, no matter how hard you try. Yet surely you do not tight down your finger. In the best work with, the B.lx-shooter, you point v ith the barrel Inst cs you point with your finger, or really, you point wllh your wrist end forearm, and the six rboo'er is the linger of your wrist, the Icr.sthening of yojr arm. That is the theory and creed of the six-shooter. Outir.3. - Speak Kindly. A man was once saved by a very poor boy from drowning. After bis restoration he cald to him: "What can I do for you, my boy?'! "Speak a kind word to mo some time," replied the boy, the tears gush ing from bis eyes. "I ain't got a mother like some of them." A kind word! Think of It This man bad It in bis power to give the boy money, clothes, playthings, but the little fellow craved nothing eo much as a kind word now and then. If tho man had ever so little heart the boy muBt certainly have had the wish granted. A kind word! Yon have many auch spoken to you dally, and you do not think much of their value; but that poor boy In the vil lage, at whom everybody laughs, would think that be had found a treas ury It some one spoke a kind word to him. A Lightles Lighthouse. On a sunken reef 350 feet distant from Stornoway lighthouse Is a re markable beacon which warns mari ners with the help of a lig'.it which Is only apparent The beacon- la a co " of cast-iron plates, surmounted vka a lantern containing a glass prism. The. prism derives Its light from refracting rays emitted from the lighthouse, and the optical delusion Is marvelous. Mariners naturally sup pose that there Is a lighted lamp pn the beacon Itself and many of them will not believe otherwise. But the object of the beacon la attained when the navigator sees the reflected light, which Indicates the perilous rock be low. This beacon has been In use core than half a century, and since It wa fixed in position others have been placed In other neighborhoods to make clear points ot danger. Techni cal World.

My teacher said to me, 'Laura, I think you'd make an authoress,' and she aent one of my essays to Mr. Rob ert Bonner, of the New York Ledger. He wouldn't believe It came from one of her pupils.

A Tibetan "Hand Book of Medi cine," published 1,000 year ago, has been recently examined by the Rus sian Academy of Medicine, and It la found to contain many valuable truths that havo been discovered and redis covered by modern physicians. A few extracts from the ancient volume are given: "Number of bones In the human body, 860; number of nerves, 99; number of pores, 11,000,000." "The 1 heart Is the king of the organs and the staff ot life. The lungs embrace It not unlike a mother would a child." "Illnesses are. due to man's malice, Ignorance and Inability to curb tbe passions, for these things Interere with the proper nourishment of the human organs." "All unkind thoughts react upon the heart and liver." Methods for ascertaining the condi tion of a person's health were much like those that are need to-day feel ing of the pulse and looking at the tongue, Uklng the temperature, etc. In there days the law Imposed fines ron surgeons and physicians who did not. koep their Instruments clean. Veg etable medicines were advocated; also the bath, compresses, massage, etc Tarty Telescopes. It appears, according to facta col lected fcy Mr. Arthur Mee. that Thomas Harriot the English astron omer, born in 1560, made telescopes perhaps contemporaneous with the the first Instruments of Galileo. Tbe very first telescope seems to have been made In Holland In 10. The next year OalUeo heard of the discov ery, and after writing for Information, began his own experiments. In th same year Harriot had one or two of the Dutch telescopes sent to him, and immediately began Improvements on h!s own account It appears that he made n considerable number, and Mr. Vec s-.iEsests that come may yet be found In some of the older colleges, or rflan-sions, In Englp.rd. It Is said Oat Harriot's last and beat telescpe v.cs nearly twice as powerful as the best mado by Galileo. Log befo.e, Harriot bad been In Virginia, and tboro employe?!, in arrvpylng, a "per epectivo pUisn." It would bo very in teresting to know Just what his per spective glass 7.'t3.

Vfe!V that Is about right," said Lecocq, tho tlei.ee-tive- "It ia more, though, than the average person would give. "Here In America, In lost and found eases, there is no recognized percent age of reward, but In England there 1b such a percentage namely, halt a crown to a pound that la to say, about 10 per cent Ten per cent Is what the finder must be paid In Eng land, provided he takes his find to a police station or to Scotland Yard He always does so, aa otherwise the owner Is apt to give him less than the legal 10 per cent "I lost in a London cab a kit bag worth $10. The kit bag was returned by the cabby to Scotland Yard and 1 le.'t there for him gladly a reward of 12. If the bag had been worth $2,000 I'd have been charier of handing out $ 200, but that la what I'd have had to do before the Scotland Yard folks would have given me my property. "When you lose anything be pre pared to give at least 10 per cent to the finder. Ten per cent la the rec ognised reward. In loat and fo-nd eaje abroad and It should be the -ec ognited reward here. . That la little enough and they who give leu are, to my mind, dishonest" Chicago Chronicle. Electricity Round a Corner.
