Wonderful Gifts From the Skies.
The Old Testament story of Moses* sojourn in the wilderness includes the providential provision of dally manna. Modem history records other wonderful things that have fallen from the heavens. A mass of burning sulphur the alee of a man’s fist fell at Pultnsk, Poland. January 30. 1868, and was stamped out by a crowd of villagers. A shower of limestone pebbles came down at Pel-et-Der. France, June 6, 1890, falling like hall. A large, gritty, smooth, water-worn sandstone- cobble, reported to have fallen at Little Lever, England, was found In the heart of a beech tree. It looked as If It had fallen red-hot and had penetrated the tree at a high velocity. Another large stone was found In 1855 in the Interior of a tree tn Battersea fields, according to the Philosophical Magazine. At the foot of the tree fragments were found as if broken off the embedded stone.
Manufacture of Lead Pencils.
The only kind of wood found suitable for making pencils is cedar, most of which comes from Florida. After being cut In the forests the logs are rafted down the rivers to the mills, where they are cut into pieces called “bolts,’’ and then into smaller strips a trifle longer than pencil lengths and half the thickness of a pencil. These strips are packed in boxes andshipped to the pencil factories, where they are carefully inspected and all Imperfect pieces discarded. After the removal of the pitch and oil, the slats are put through a precess of seasoning. Then they are put through a machine that cuts the groovw in which the lead 18 placed. The lead is put In the grooves by hand and the slats are glued together. Another machine cuts the slats Into many pieces, each piece being a pencil. They are then sandpapered, varnished and stamped.
r Innuendo. "I can’t do a thing with my hair.” “Send it to a hair specialist," suggested the other damsel.
A Prime Requisite. “That portrait of Mrs. Gaddy is a speaking likeness." “It wouldn’t be like her any other way.”
Clothes may make the actress and the jdek of them the chorus girt. If g woman has nothing to worry about her happiness t* We are paying less attention to war boards and more to ouija boards. Happy is the man who is too deaf to hear what others say about him. A bachelor girl is sometimes an old maid who is ashamed to admit it. Why is it that little girls always smile and little boys al way* grin? It’s awfully hard to give away some things that you want to get fid of.
The following underwent operations at the hospital today for tonsilitis: Eva Emerson, the ten year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Emerson of Remington; Mrs. Laura Hamilton of Remington, and Evaline Colton, the eight year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lon Colton, who lives on the Howard Mills farm in Barkley township.

FOIL DEATH-DEALING VAMPIRE
West Indian Superstition That Seema to Have Been Borrowed From French Peasant Lore. Superstitions of the most interesting variety are to be mrt with every where in the Caribbean islands among the negro population that was transplanted from Africa into the West Indies. In Grenada, where the Loupgarou of the French peasant has tn easy going West Indian manner of speech become the Loogaroo, which is of the vampire class, whose desire is for human blood, sucked from a sleeping man, woman or child, there Is a superstition that to keep it away from the huts of men it is necessary to sprinkle a good deal of rice or sand overnight in front of the door. According to the superstition, the Loogaroo, keen on sucking human blood, stops and begins to count every grain before going any further, morning coming before the counting is completed. Thereupon the unhappy Loogaroo must retire. In Jamaica they do not talk of Loogaroo, but there are plenty of duppies. Duppy, roughly speaking, means ghost, but there is a slight difference, for the duppy can walk the earth, while the spirit or soul remains in its apppointed place.
Opportunity on the Farm.
There was a time when the idea was altogether too common, that the occupation of farming was a sort of junk pile where fate threw human discards who lacked ambition, intelligence, or perseverance enough to succeed in any other calling in life. Then along in the late nineties there was a “back to the land movement,” and “mossback” and “hayseed” were relegated to the columns of obsolete slang. The farmer sees life and growth on every hand. Even in winter, in the localities where the landscape seems a symbol of death with snow and ice holding everything In its grasp, there Is the hope of renewed life, or resurrection of seed grain, typified by the next spring’s planting. Truly, on the farm there are special opportunities for observation and thought, and happy is the farmer whose thoughts go deeper than the bottom of his milk pall and whose pasture fences are not the boundaries of his horizon. —Christian Herald.
Advice to Teachers.
Let your scholar be never afraid to ask you any doubt, but use discreetly the best allurements you can to encourage them to the same; lest his overmuch fearing of you drive I him" t<f seek some mtsorderly shift; ! as to seek to be helped by some other , book, or to be prompted by some other scholar; and so go about to beguile you much, and himself more. With tills good way of understanding the matter, plain construing, diligent parsing, dally translating, cheerful admonishing, and heedful' amending of faults, never leaving behind Just praise for well doing, I would ■ have the scholar brought up withal. I till he had read and translated over the first book of Epistles chosen out by Sturmius, with a good piece of a . comedy of Terrence also.—From “The Schoolmaster,” by Roger Ascham.
Height of Sea Waves.
The records of average height la feet observed at sea are approximately equal ts half the velocity of the wind in statute miles per hour. For those occasions on which the wind baa had as full opportunity as it ever enjoys ot doing its work, direct proportionality still holds good, bat the constant is higher. It has been found that seven-tenths, best satisfies the available- observations between a strong breese and a whole gale. The name simple proportion, however, does not hold when dealing with the heights corresponding to the gentlest breezes. The highest waves finally formed are those traveling at a velocity which is equal, within the error of observation, to that ot the wind.—Brooklyn Magi*

TASTE TAKEN OUT OF CASTOR OIL BY NEW PROCESS Remarkable Method Perfected By Laboratory Expert* of Spencer Kellogg A Sone, Inc. When the doctor says “take castor oil” you need no longer shudder. By a new scientific process all the disagreeable, features have been removed from jhis famous old remedy. Chemists of Spencer Kellogg & Sons, Inc., have perfected a remarkable process by which all nauseating taste is eKminated from castor oil. Nothing is removed except the taste. Strength and purity remain the same—a„ 100, per cent pure castor oil. Kellogg’s Tasteless Castor Oil settles the question of the best laxative. No pills or drugs are so prompt and thorough as nature’s pure remedy, castor oil. That’s why doctors always prescribe it. Sold by all good druggists. If you want a castor oil absolutely without nauseating taste, insist on genuine laboratory filled bottles, plainly labelled Kellogg’s Tasteless Castor Oil. Three sizes, 15c, 35c and 65c,—(Advt.)
