An Unextinguishable Light.
The remarkable light which has been
brought forward in Germany, and
known as the Durr light, is declared
to be equally capable of use for inte-
rior illumination. It is originated by
of the vapors from ordinary lamp pe-
troleum; the vapors being converted
from 3,500 to 14,000 candle power.
The apparatus consists of a tank
containing the supply of petroleum,
which is removed sufficiently from the
burner to avoid all danger of i, from
the flame. The oil is conducted by
drops into a burner of special con-
struction, after
heated for about five minutes by means
of oll which is burned in small heat-
ing pans furnished with the apparatus,
Behind the burner from which the
flame issues there is a second burner,
which, after the heating of the pans
has been remcved. continually pro-
duces the vapors and heats them to a
high temperature, at the same time
completely surrounding the first burn-
er with a strong flame. This arrange-
mant is said to make the extinction of

Don't Eat Too Rapidly,
Moderation in manner of eating and
choice of food has not always charac-
terized men of history. Both Napo-
leon 1. and Carlyle are said to have
ruined their digestions and tempers
by rapid eating. On the other hand,
the care with which Gladstone partakes
of the viands set before him has been
acknowledged over and over again
as one of the greatest factors which
has worked to prolong his life,
