A NEW MICROBE KILLER. It Is Fatal to Bacilli, but Harmless to Man. It was already known that secretious of the mucous membranes, especially saliva, possess antiseptic properties un- der certain circumstances, which ex- plains the ieason why the germs which enter daily and hourly throngh the mouth do not reaoh a harmful develop- ment, but Edinger has now found the active material in potassium rhodanate, which is present in saliva. Potassium rhodanate is a compound of sulphur, oyanogen and potassium and is in large quantities narcotically poisonous to warm blooded animals. It is, like other rhodanates, fatal to bacilli. It is said that quinolin rhodanate, in a solution of 3 parts to 1,000, will kill the cholera bacillus in a minute, and in a solution of three times this strength will kill the diphtheria bacillus in the same time. It was found by further re- searches that this rhodanate has the ef- feot of carbolic acid and of corrosive sublimate, and at the same time is harmless to man. Rhodanate is the same thing as sul- phooyanate — a much better word, be- cause it explains itself and* is not liable to be confounded with the derivatives of rhodium. — Popular Science News. The Tower System of Lighting Towns. When aro lights were first introduced for street lighting, there was a very ex- aggerated idea of their lighting power. A light of 1,000 candle power seemed such a powerful illuminator that the idea was veiy naturally conceived of placing lamps on the top of tall towers and lighting the whole area of a city, j Several municipalities adopted this tow- ' er system of lighting, of which the best known example is doubtless Detroit. It was at once found, however, that a cluster of arc lamps 150 feet or more from the ground might be an excellent plan for lighting the whole of a large area, but was a very poor plan for light- ing city streets. In the average Amer- ican city, with long blocks, the streets comprise not more than one-third of the area ; hence with the tower system of lighting 66 per cent more of the illu- minating power is wasted in lighting up house roofs, back yards and vacant lots. Nearly every city of which we have information that originally adopt- ed the tower system of lighting has abandoned it. It is therefore quite sur- prising to learn that Des Moines pro- poses to put in a municipal street light- ing plant and to use the tower system. — Engineering News. Hears Better Than the Ear. A machine or device has been invent- ed which will hear better than the hu- man ear. It is called the eophoue, and the United States government has just concluded a series of very successful tests of the instrument aboard the bat- tleship Indiana. By means of this novel device, which is placed on the top of the pilothouse of a vessel, it will be possiblo to hear sounds from another vessel so far away that any noise that might be made aboard of her less than the report of a shot of cannon would not be audible to the ear upon the vessel which contained the eophone. Tne pilswrv purpose of the invention is to prevent collisions between vessels in time of fog and at night by wm.iijjg them of each other's presence. New Cure For Bruises. j Instead of having recourse to applica- tions of tincture of arnica, spirits of camphor and to strong compression of the swelling in tho treatment of light bruises Dr. Auger prefers the use of olive oil both in children aud in adults. He applies the oil freely to the contused parts and rubs the latter lightly with a rag, absorbent cotton, or with the fin- gers, anjl covers the bruise with a com- press saturated with olive oil. The au thor claims that this treatment gives immediate relief to the patient, and that the formation of a bloody protu- berance is often prevented, while exco- riations and superficial wounds which may be present heal very rapidly. Alabama Iron In England. The experimental shipment of pig iron from Alabama to England a couple of years ago proved successful beyond even the hope of tho originators of the scheme. Now there is an actual scarci- ty of steamer room for shipping the Alabama iron sold for export. So much cheaper can tho pig be made in Alaba- ma than in England that English cap- italists interested in iron production are planning to invade Alabama aud conduct iron works there. Fir* Protection of High Buildings. The Electrical Engineer _bas heard it suggested that lines of water pipe should be hidden under the cornices of tall buildings, tho valves to be released elec- trically at the moment of need, so that flames from outside encounter a com- plete water sheet, which keeps them off. Scraps of Science. < Every man carries an atmospheric pressure of 15 tons. A perfectly proportioned man weighs 28 pounds for every foot of his height. It is said that the Greenland whale sometimes attains the age of 400 years. Fifty-one metals are now known to exist. Four hundred years ago only seven were known. It is said the wound made by the tooth of the cobra species of serpent is a mere puncture and causes little swelling. Death ensues from paralysis of the nerve centers. It is often supposed that boys in grow- ing keep ahead of girls, but recent measurements disprovo this. The boys, up to their eleventh year, were found to run about a quarter of an inch taller than the girls. They were then over- taken by tho girls, who surpassed them in height till their sixteenth year, when the boys again grew faster than the girls and came to the front. !
