IAXOER IN ORIENTAL ni'GS jftatlfjueia juitl Near Antiques May Doth IV the Volilclo for Germ. Dr. Remllnger, bead of the Fnt or Institute In Constantinople, hai Wen making an Investigation of Or. tental rugs and carpRti and ha pub. Itjihod a summary of his results la tne Gorman Journal of General and Applied Hygiene. He finds that the carpets of the better clasn, the highly priced antiques or near antiques, con. tltute a serious menace to. health snless they are rut tirough radical cleansing and disinfecting process. The real antiques which have been In use In Oriental houses or bazaars for yvari or generations have been exposed to the contagion of count less disease germs. Their texture Jits them In a peculiar way to gather And retain these Indefinitely. These genuine antiques are far less objectionable than the counter feit antiques which have been artl call? mellowed.' One of the least bjectfonable methods used to soften the colors In the degree that the Iiropean and American market calls for h to bury the carpets In trenches vilh qunntltlcs of stable refusn. yr&m taken up they are llttlo likely to rucefve a thorough cleansing. Sometimes the carpets are laid down In frequented places to be walked on, thus accumulating the kacterfa laden dust of the Eastern city streets. Or a rug may be lent to a beggar or street vender, who at',. on It and sleeps In It until It acquires the semblance of ace. Dr. UomllnKer points out that tub erculosis, throat diseases and eat art are prevalent in the rug and carpet trade. He is of opinion that tbey are contracted from handling tie fabrics and breathing the air In which they are opened and agitat ed ati they are shown to customers. Tha doctor also expresses the opin ion that some otherwlso unaccount able outbreaks of tropical enteric disorders that have taken place in Paris were due to lnfec'.on from Oriental rugs. Tbe most thorough and efficient process of cleansing would be disin fection by steam. This could do no barm to the rugs ,and it as an abso lutely certain method of killing bac teria. He thinks that It should be generally adopted as a preliminary to the Importation of Eastern fabrics Into any Occidental country.

The production of urtlinlal dia monds hus long been a dream u! ine experimenter. The conditions miuei nature are pretty well uiijim stood; and on a small scale they huo lor some tlmo been duplicated m the laboratory and even thoiikh in-re quite unwittingly In tho workshop. Nothing more is necessary than to reduce carbon a bit of coal or grap hite or lampblack to a liquid con dition, combine It with a solvent and maintain it under great press ure until It cools, when crystals of tho pure carbon will form Jusi as do crystals of quartz or sugar or salt under like condtlons and these cry. Btais of carbon constitute true dia monds. But the dlfUculty Hen in the txtreme reluctance with which carbon ussuiues the liquid state. Under pressure, to be sure, It will liquefy; but the pressure is about fifteen tons to tho square inch. In the depths of tho earth, sucli a pressure may be applied by the weight of geological strata; but how may it be attained in tho laboratory? A most Ingenious answer to this question was found by I'rofessor Henri Molssuu, of Paris. It is bused on the well known fact that the inetul Iron has the property which it shares with a few other substances, Including water of expanding in stead of contracting as It pusses from the liquid to the solid Btute; combined with the further fact that liquid iron absorbs or dissolves car bon, much as water does sugar, in Increasing quantity with Increasing temperature. Molssan fills an Iron receptacle with pure Iron and pure carbon obtained by calcining sugar, closes It tightly, and rapidly heats It to the highest temperature attain- able in an electric furnace, bringing it to a degree of heat at which the lime furnace begins to melt, and the Iron volatilizes in clouds. The dazzling fiery receptacle la then lifted out and plunged Instantly Into cold water, until Its outer sur face Is cooled and hardened, thus forming a shell of Iron that holds the Interior contents with an Index lble grip. As this molten Interior in a tier cools, the carbon separates from t lie iron solvent in liquid drops, and under the almost unimaginable pressure of expansion of tho solidi fying iron theso liquid drops become rolid crystals of diamond. Every body's. "Tlicre's Many a Slip." The proverb, "There's :'iany a tili 'twlxt tlio cup and tho Up," is prolm'jly tiio oldest of all tho fam iliar Kn;-'lb,h sayings. Its origin is found in the following ancient Greek ii'Kcii.l told by Lycophron. Aucueiis, tile son of tho god Poseidon an '. King of the Delegc'rt of Sainos, Uo!i pret pride In his vineyards, und treate! most harshly tho slaves who worked them. A prophet predicted that as a pun ishment for his cruelty ho would not live to enjoy the wine pre:i:ud Irom his grapes. The harvesting aim n o wineiiiaklng passed In safety, ur, ! finally Ancaeus stood Jeering at tha prophecy with the first cup ot w.iu in his hand. But the seer replied to the King's tnockery "Many ihliu. happen between the cup nn.. t!:e Hp." At that moment a wild boar broke into the vineyard and Ancoous Betting the cup down untastei' hur ried off to direct tbe chase, in which he was killed. CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.
