Two Kansas Inventors arriving at the conclusion that there is more pow-. er in the leg than in the arm, have, applied the principle to the hammer. Instead of swinging the hammer over the head, the blow is accomplished br the pressure of a foot lever. Per­ haps the most significant part of the invention is the fact that only or­ dinary pressure is required to re­ lease the hammer, strong springs reg­ ulating the force of the blow. An ad­ ditional advantage is that the ham- taier can be swung laterally to strike upon different portions of the face of the anvil. By referring to the il­ lustration the operation will be ob­ vious. The hammer is attacked to a specially formed handle, the latter l>eing pivotally mounted upon the ibase, which stands directly in back (Of the anvil. At the right side of ^the anvil is the treadle, whi^h ex­ tends backward to the base, to which St is pivoted. An iron chain connects with the shaft at the top of the base and the treadle, and when pressure la applied to the treadle it is trans­ mitted to the shaft, and by a xe verse action of the mechanism the ham­ mer descends. When the treadle is released a spring at the back pulls Foot Power Swings the Hammer. i * the hammer up from the anvil, the movement being limited by a catch at the side of the treadle, preventing the latter from rising above a certain point. The treadle being attached to the chain, and the latter to the «shaft operating the hammer, the up­ ward movement of the hammer is also limited. Granite with Air. The expansive force of compressed" air is employed in a very interesting way by the North Carolina Granite company. On a sloping hillside, com­ posed of granite which shows no bed planes, but splits readily in any di­ rection when started, a three-inch t>one is sunk about eight feet deep, and th# bottom is enlarged by ex­ ploding a half-stick of dynamite. A small charge of powder is fired in this ^ioie, which starts a horizontal crack' or cleavage, says the Youth's Companion. Charges increasing in sixe are exploded until the cleavage lias extended over a radius of 75 or 100 feet.. Then a pipe is cemented into the borg, "and the air is forced in, under a pressure of from 80 to 100 pounds. The expansion of the air extends the cleavage until it comes out on the surface on,.the slope of the hill. A horizontal sheet of granite several acres in extent may- thus be separated. Picture of a Burning Diamond. A diamond burning in the electric arc was lately exhibited on a screen by Sir William Crookes. The stone could be seen to sprout apd swell and blacken under the intense heat until nothing remained but a swollen lump of graphite. A LOCOMOTIVE TIRE. Use Which Some Town* Make Them When Won* Out. In many of the smaller cities where an electric lire alarm has not yet been installed, wornout or cracked tires from the driving wheels of locomotives are used in place of fire bells. The cost is less, the sound Ib very pene­ trating and is unlike a bell. For many years Marengo, 111., used one of these tires before alarm boxes were put in. W. F. Mead, of that place, furnishes a sketch which will indicate the manner The Locomotive Tire Fire Alarm. of erecting the tower, which in thla case was on top the fire-engine house. The tire was hung by an iron ring from a cross piece, but some towns erect a 20 or 30-foot tower on the ground. The striker has an iron ball at each end, with two wires passing down to the ground floor, one of which is grasped by each hand. By this means more rapid stroke* can be sounded than on a bell. WORST FORM OF ECZEMA. Black 8potches All Over Face--Af- fected Parts Now Clear as Ever-- , ; .iCured by the Cutieura Ham- -f ?: . • adiea. |v . "About four years ago I was afflict­ ed with black Bplotches all over my face and a few covering my body, which produced a severe Itching Irri­ tation, and which caused me a great deal of annoyance and suffering, to such an extent that I was forced to call in two of the leading physicians of my town. After a thorough exami­ nation of the dreaded complaint they announced It to be skin eczema in its worst form. They treated me for the same for the length of one year, but the treatment did me no good. Fin­ ally my husband purchased a set of the Cutieura Remedies, and after using the contents of the first bottle of Cutieura Resolvent In connection with the Cutieura Soap and Ointment, the breaking out entirely stopped. I continued the use of the Cutieura Remedies for six months, and after that every splotch was entirely gone and the affected parts were left as clear as ever. The Cutieura Reme­ dies not only cured me of that dread­ ful disease, eczema, but other compli­ cated troubles as well. Lizzie E. Sledge, 540 Jones Ave., Selma, Ala., Oct. 28, 1905." JKALOU8 OF BOBBIE'S WIFE. POISON INDICATOR. ' No Chance of Anyone Mistaking Con- tents of the Bottle. The old story of the unfortunate who drank the contents of a- bottle containing a deadly poison in mis­ take for another medicine is almost a daily news item in the newspapers. In fact, an economical editor once suggested that the item be kept stand­ ing in type, the only necessary change from day to day being that of the N«w York Woman's Excuse for Fits of Extravagance. Women dearly love an excuse for little extravagances, says the New York Globe. Of course, the masculine readers of this oolumn are not expeot- ed to indorse this, for, according to the masculine thought, women need no "excuse" for their extravagances--- they juBt have them without rhyme or reason. ^ An up-town woman has a charming excuse for any extra indulgence In her two-year-old blue-eyed son Bob­ bie and Bobbie's future wife. In trust for Bobbie is a handsome estate which gives her great concern because she feels that she must save and econo­ mize for Bobbie, for Bobbie's college education, his European trip, and, "oh, dear!" she always adds, "Bobbie's wife." Wearying of a continued spell of economy, in a moment of reckless extravagance she'll buy a lot of dear, delightful things, have her fingers manicured, her hair shampooed and take fascinating trips here and there. And then when her conscience will prick she'll say. "Why not? Bobbie's wife will, and he won't care how much it costs." And Bobbie's wife won't, either. She'll spefid Joyously and gloriously. .

The presence of angle worms in the ground soon becomes a pest on a golf llliks or other stretch of well kept gloss, but a marvelous way of get­ ting rid of them has been recently dis­ covered and made use of in England. The accompanying pictures were made at a test which took plaee at the Mid- Snrrey golf links at Richmond, Eng­ land, says the Montreal Herald. The exterminator was scattered over the ground and the field then generously watered and in less than three min­ utes, the surface of the ground was covered with thousands of the worms, which had been driven from their holes. One square yard of earth was photographed and found to contain no less than 900 \yOrtas. The barrow- load also shown In the accompanying Illustration, Iras gathered up with a rake.' J V ' •"Chill" or "Chile." There have been many arguments during the last few weeks as to whether the name of the earthquake- smitten country should be spelled Chili or Chile . Chile is the Spanish and Chilean form. The name is com­ monly explained as an old Peruvian word for snow, the allusion being to the Andes; but "Chili" has also been identified aS a native South American word, "chiri," meaning cold--which would make it really the "chilly" coun­ try. As to the meaning of "Ondes, there is plenty of choice. The word has been variously interpreted as sig­ nifying the haunt of the tapir, the re­ gion of copper, the home of the Antl tribe and the Bite of the "Ondenes.'

It seems that considerable danger to property exists in the practice of burning off old paint before re-palnt- Ing. The question has long been a subject of debate In the technical journals, and now householders and the newspapers have begun to discuss It. Those of us who, with trembling, have watched the painters blow a fiery blast from their lamps against our houses, and have looked sadly at the size of our painting bill because of the time wasted on this prelimin­ ary work, are interested in the in­ vestigation by the Greenfield (Mass.) Gazette and Courier, which gives con­ siderable space to the reasons for the practice, questions Its necessity and suggests ways to prevent the risk of burning down one's house in order to get the old paint off. It says: "There is a good deal of discussion among householders as to the desir­ ability, In painting houses, of burning Off the old paint, a practice that has grown very common of lsfe> in Green­ field and elsewhere. Insurance men are strongly Opposed to this method. It makes void insurance' policies for fires caused in this manner. Several houses in Greenfield have gotten afire as the result of this method, and in some places houses have burned as a result "It is undoubtedly true that when a house has been painted over and over again there comes to be an ac­ cumulation of paint inYbunches. if new paint is put on tp^ of these ac­ cumulations it Is almost sure to blis­ ter. To burn It off is the quickest and cheapest and perhaps the surest method of getting rid of this old paint." i The Gazette and Courier quotes cer­ tain old patrons to the effect that ac­ cumulations of paint are unnecessary. These old-timers lay the blame partly on the painter who fails to brush his paint in well, partly on the custom of painting in damp weather or not allow­ ing sufficient time for drying between Coats, and partly to the use of adulter­ ated paints instead of old-fashioned linseed oil and pure white lead. The paper says: "Many of the old householders say that if care is taken at all these points it is absolutely unnecessary to have paint burned off. They advise that people who have houses painted should buy their own materials, and to have them put on by the day, so as to be sure to get good lead and oil. . Of course the burning off of paint greatly increases the cost of the job." The trouble householders everywhere have with paint is pretty well summed up by our contemporary, and the causes are about the same everywhere. By far the most frequent cause of the necessity for the dangerous practice of burning old paint is the use of poor material. The oil should be pure lin­ seed and the white lead should be real white lead. The latter is more often tampered with than the oil. Earthy substances, and pulverized rock and quartz, are frequently used as cheap- eners, to the great detriment of the paint Painters rarely adulterate white lead themselves and they very seldom use ready prepared paints--the most frequent causes of paint trouble. But they do often buy adulterated white lead because the property owner in­ sists on a low price and the painter has to economize somewhere. The suggestion is therefore a good one that the property owner investigate the subject a little, find out the name of some reliable brand of white lead, and see that the keg is marked with that brand. The linseed oil is more difficult to be sure of, as it is usually sold In bulk when the quantity is small; but reliable makers of linseed oil can be learned on'inquiry, and, if your dealer is reliable, you will get what you want. Pure white lead and linseed oil are so _ necessary to good paint that the little trouble necessary to get them well repays the house owner In dollars and cents saved.

The female is very much duller in coloring, often having • reddish tone that extends from the middle of the back over the shoulder. The Seminole Indians say that the male bluebird once flew so high that his back rubbed against the sky, which imparted to him its own azure tint.
