An innovation in gardening tools now enables home gar

deners to stand upright and "draw a bead on pesky weeds, it was announced by a corporation over in Ohio.

The instrument, recently invented, is known as a "rifle

weeder" and consists of two telescoped steel tubes with a

curved handle on one end and steel prongs on the other. When it is pushed into the ground around the weed a gadget grasps

the weed tightly and at the same time cocks the "rifle's trigger. The gardener then aims and fires at a basket a short

distance away, according to a company spokesman.

Fbt the hope, a fireproof ironing board cover has been

devised and is already on the market, it was disclosed by the United States 'Rubber Company of Chicago, which is made of a mixture of asbestos and cotton. It is guaranteed not to burst into flame ho matter how hot the iron may be. New type dish-towels are also in store, the company said, which are extra-absorbent, polish as they wipe, and are fireproof.

Other experiments being made are determining the adapta

V ONCE again, Jessie and John sailed on tranquil seas. Their contentment was marred only by the death in the east of Jessie's aged father, Senator Benton. It was a year later that John drove Jessie along the Golden Gate strait to where a house sat on the edge of the bluff. Jessie exclaimed, "What a heavenly spot. Whose is it?" "Yours," said John. "I've deeded it in your name. It will sflways belong to you and the children." It was nine years since Jessie first had seen San Francisco. The city had grown miraculously. Jessie was supremely happy in the new house called Black Point. She was 34 now, and had been married to John for 17 years. Maturity had brought her a new kind of beauty and her home became the

leading political and literary salon of the west coast.

Jessie saw that Lincoln had better fortune than 1hey had had four years telove. Stephen Douglas had split the Democratic party even as the Free-Soilers had split the Republicans in IP.ofi. On a trip evt, John saw Abraham Lincoln at the Ar-tor House. He wrote to Jessie, "I am convinced Unit ,i.-tu?l wrr between North and South is not far off." He had. ha said, offered his services to Mr. Lincoln and the president-:- ?ct had assured him that if war should break out, he would b5 named to an important command. John was still in New York on April '12 when Fut Sumter was fired upon. President Lincoln called for volunteers.

John was commissioned a major general, in charge of the v est and with headquarters in St. Louis. He sent Jessie her marching orders; lock up the house and come east Jessie knew then that her contentment had grown out of hfr prescience that this period was but another calm betwren storms. Though she was willing to go, Lily was hot.1 The Kirl cried furiously, "I don't want to leave. Black Point is my home. I love it . . Ji'.ssie quieted her daughter, parked their bags.
