He lowered his voice and glanced sharply at each door and window.

'Do not breathe a word of what I am about to say. Keep it a profound secret, for it will mean many millions of dollars

There was intense stillness,

What I've done is this, gentlemen: I've provided means of supplying air to people under the sea without the use of tubes leading from them to the surface of the wator. Air that has been breathed and treated by my process may be breathed again and again. Loss of life by puffoca tion in sunken steamships will be impossi ble when ships are equipped with my apparatus. Now, follow me closely

First, every ship must provide means for automatically sealing state-rooms, or, better still, a large common portion of the vessel's hull, wherein all the crow and passengers could be placed at the time the sinking of the ship seemed certain.

*Secondly, every ship must carry at all times on all voyages in very strong steel slow and controllable release through valves. cylinders, compressod oxygen capable of

Now before I go further, I'll explain what air is composed of and what really happens when a person is imprisoned in a scaled room. Air is composed of about eighty parts nitrogen and twenty parts oxygen. The nitrogen does no particulat good except to dilute the oxygen, which you all know is the life in the air.

instead of twenty, you would be so lively that you soon would wear yourself out. You would live a much shorter life, but a much livelier one.'

According to that, said the janitor, if we had only ten parts oxygen to ninety parts nitrogen, we would live much longer than we now do,

Are you weak, tired, easily fatigued, all-worn-out? If so, your system lacke tone. Your system needs recuperating. You need a good strengthening tonic. When the system is in a depressed condi tion, its resisting power is lowered and it is an easy prey to discose. Germs may readi- ly multiply upon the tissues, and inost serious results may ensue. The most for midable diseases may be easily contracted.

Stearns' Wine of Cod Liver Oil

is all that a true tonic implies. It is a delicious wine representing all the midi- cinal virtues of the best cod liver oil, and of the best form of iron. It is reliable in every respect. Nothing secret about it. It is a scientific preparation based on scientific research, and will produce results where nothing else will. It increases the appetite, 2093 improves digestión and stimulates nutri- tion. Under its influence the food eaten actually feeds the body.

You understand, don't

Yes; it's quite simple now.'

This foul air is heavier than the puro air, and, therefore, settles down to the lowest level it can reach, so that in the case of a sealed room it rests on the floor, while the breathing air that remains sooks the I upper part of the room.

Now, you see how the proposition is reduced to a very simple formi. When the ship is sinking, all the passengers and crow go down to their automatically sealed room and gradually release the compressed oxygen from the big tanks,

This oxygen unites with the free nitrogen, forming more puro air, while the foul air that has been breathed is pamped out from the lower levels of the room where it has set- tled. There would be onough oxygen in the tanks to last for days and days, and it could be gradually released as necessity demanded. If the imprisoned fussengers became slightly despondent they could artificially liven themselves up by releasing an extra supply of oxygen.

And in the meantime they could send on some Hertzi- au waves to influence the Marconi equip ment with which most vessels are fitted. This would enable the wreck to be located and reached."

Why, certainly.. "They could send for anything or even hold telegraphic com. munication with the folks at, home if they happened to be wrecked near the shore.'

What kind of a pump would you use to pump the foul air out of the room? That's the only part I don't exactly understand,' said the janitor.

Oh. just an ordinary air pump. That's very simple. Or, instead of pumping it out, you might have various kinds of grow. ing plants in the room. Plant life, you know, inhales carbonic acid gas, absorbs the

The chairman paused

and smoked vigorously for a few minutes. Then his face glowed brightly.

Don't you see how beautiful every- thing will be when this superb invention has been universally adopted? Supposing you are in your state-room when the ship is wrecked. You need not worry at all about, catching the last boat ashore. All you have to do is to stroll down to the scaled room-beautiful with growing plants --and send a dispatch home, telling them where you are and asking them to call fort you.

Why, it's really very simple after you

fully understand it, isn't it? remarked the

secretary, admiringly.

Absolutely simple-just as all great inventions are, admitted the modest chairman.

'How about smoking in the sealed room!

Would that be permitted? asked the

Janitor; and instantly a worried look settled

upon the chairman's face.

THE OSAKA EXHIBITION,

1903.

The Fifth National Industrial Exhibition opens at Osaka on the first of March and closes on the thirty-first of July in 1903.

It is situated at Imamiya, near the famous teniple of Tennoji, in the southern district of the city of Osaku."

|

The coming Exhibition, in its general plan and scope surpassing all the previous exhibitions held in the empire, will present a full illustration of Japanese art, produce and manufacture in their latest state of progress and development. Exhibits will be installed in the Agriculture Building, Manufacture Building, Machinery Building, Education Building, Transportation Build- ing, Zoological Building, Foreign Ex- hibits Building, Fine Arts Building and Aquarium by groups and classes after their classification. The Ceremonial Hall, Green House, Cold Storage, Tea House, Bazaars, Restaurants, &c., are to be built within the exhibition grounds.

Osaka is the first commercial city of Japan, and forms the centre of distribution of merchandise. It is the most progressive city, and its industriol development in the past few years has been great. Among its many attractions to visitors are the the Castle, now nearly ruined; the old Shinto temple of Tenjin, dedicated to the sacred memory of Sugawara no Michi- zane, the great scholar and statesnian; the old Buddhist temple of Tennoji, built by the Imperial Prince Shotoku Taishi over s thousand years ago; The Imperial Mint, organized in 1871 by The Imperial Govern- ment; the two temples of East and West Honganji, &c......

There are many interesting places within a short distance from Osaka. Nara, the ancient capital, with its old temples and its art treasures, is reached by rail in a few hours, and the famous Yoshino, where thousands of cherry trees blom near the end of April, is within a few hours' jour- ney. Kioto, the western capital of the gerpire, with its many attractions, is with- in one hour's railway journey from Osaka.

Sakai, where the Aquarium attached to the exhibition is situated in the Public Garden on the beach, is reached by rail in. an hour, and the old Shinto temple of Sumiyoshi, dedicated to, the Gods of Soa, is within a half hour's railway journey,

The fo sign visitors will find very com fortable accommodation in the new Osika Club Hotel, situated on the charming island of Nakanoshima, right in the heart of Osaka. de

Foreign visitors to Osaka during the Exhibition will obtain special privileges and free access to many places usually closed against all visitors, both Foreign and Japanese, besides the advantage of reduced rates on steamers and railways.

They would notice that he had only suggested that Club races should be sailed on Saturdays. There were Cup races, of course, but there did not appear to him to be the same objection to Cup races being raced for on Sundays. A man went in for a Cup race if he liked; in the age of Club races it was all or none. He moved the adoption of the resolution.

Destructive Fire at Kweilin. (From One Own Correspondent. }

Kweilin, October. 1,

On Saturday, Sept. 27, at about half-past two in the afternoon, began one of the destructive fires which have caused such devastation in this city during the past few years. It began in a fire-cracker shop, it being ropurred that they were testing the powder to see if it was good! The result was an explosion, followed by two more. Immediately, the fire had become one of some size, and everything being so dry it spread like wildfire. By the time the small manuals began to arrive, it was already out

Mr Slade said he was most strongly opposed to this motion. If they were not to start till 2.30, only 3 hours would be left for the races, as they had to finish at 5.45. For a 10, 11, or 12 mile course on a light day 3 hours was an impossible time. They wanted a good 4 hours at the very least for boats to finish.

If these races were sailed on Saturday, there would be innumerable races requiring to be ressiled, and there was no saying when the racing would be finished if they had light weather such as they had last season. But there We a more serious objection than this even; he believed a considerable number of boat-owners here would be unable to sail regularly on Saturday afternoons.
