The meeting the old general aud his du lighter, whom he nut seen since she was ala years had old, was thus described by a ucwapa-pe- r lu New York: Aa (Jen.

The young girl, not a bit einlmrrassed, looked at the general afTeetlonutely, and replied: " Txx.k at me. Dont you know me?

Kyoltloa menul kiosks, furnishing hot water for a small coin, have recently been constructed ln Paris. They are distributed all over town, but are particularly frequent In thickly populated quarters and near The distribution of carriage stands hot water at a trifling coat for varloua purposes 'la a very important step toward the bettering of the sanitary condition of oertaln parts of Paris. A coin of fire centimes, equal to one cent, deposited In the slot of one of these kiosks, will furnish about five gallons of water from a faucet provided near the bottom, as seen In the Illustration. When the coin Is deposited a supply of gaa la turned on full, which up to that time has been burning very low and Is kept burning brightly for about one minute. This time Is sufficient to heat the water to about 150 degrees Fahrenheit, which la hot enough for all practical purposes. Twenty of these hot water fountain kiosks are now established In the tenement districts, and the poorer classes have become the best customers of these new machines. The water Is used for baths, cooking, washing, and also by the drivers of carriages to fill the hot water receptacles with which their passengers keep their feet warm. While making money for the company which built them, this Invention has proven a decided benefit to the people ln general. Additional revenue Is obtained from the advertisements placed around the upper part of the entire kiosk, which alone pays for erection of the kiosk itself and for the gas burned, which Illuminates the advertisement at night from Inside. Philadelphia Record. Foreign Bodies In tho Flesh. It la not an uncommon thing for people to carry needles, pins, bullets and bits of steel around with them for half a lifetime, but no one can be found who would be willing voluntarily to undertake such a burden. And yet there are instances where articles which might seem to be of a most dangerous character have been carried in the body for years. A man in repairing a building fell through a window, breaking the glass and severely cutting one of hla arms. The wound waa carefully and antlseptically dressed, and the jnan went about his buslniso. Three yeara later he caned upon the doctor who had attended him, and complained of a boil on hla wrist. The physician ca dually mentioned the injury which he had sustained, and asked him if he suffered any Inconvenience from It He answered, "No, not much, but said that at times there was a peculiar sensation between the elbow and shoulder. Upon examination, the doctor found a long splinter of glass just ready to prick through the akin at a point several Inches above the place where It had originally entered. The glass was drawn out, the wound properly dressed, and the man recovered, thereafter being entirely free from the annoying sharp palna to which he had for yeara been subject. rek-braic- is i Bo Vtitsr Kiosk for tho Arrannodaitlo of Forlaloo Tlropo Toiror to Bo Ooo of tho Bight of tho Sfoxt Got To Kill tinea Germ.

In kites are among the most notable of current Inventions A man haa Invented what he calls a box kite, with which he haa achieved some remarkable results He carried up with hla kite a packet weighing aa much as the average man. This reached an altitude of six hundred feet, and floated along without accident or Incident, until suddenly the rope broke. Of course, the natural conclusion was that the kite would com tumbling down, but Instead of this It floated with the wind for something like half a mile, when it gradually sank to the earth In a way that would sot have injured a man had ha acIs pecultually been there. This kite ls that iarly arranged, having can he altered in shape by the use of a lever, thus enabling the passenger to change the course and position of the kite, and to guide It in Its downward flight. The experiment la especially Interesting from the fact thgt tho kite came down so gently, carrying the weight ' of a man with it This will stimulate experiments, and It may yet be that the kite Idea will prove to he the correct basis for the construction of flying machines. , ta4pB-iT'cIWfrHlmlii-a-5.-- . miner l All 0111" "d'dl JIhII Or.
