NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY J
HE SPREAD OUT
Advice tho Roofer Got1 From Hs Boss
In Apprentice Days
The man was working on the side of
a steeply sloping roof All of a sudden
his foot slipped and with n groan he
began to slide down slowly toward the
edge l v
As he slid he clutched with tense
fingers at the tin but It was smooth
It offered him no hold and his spoed
gradually but surely Increased
As In a sitting posture like a tobog
ganer the man continued his deadly
slide he began to pray In a loud an
guished voice
Memory as If In answer to his pray
er flashed across his brain the words
Spread out
The man Instantly lay flat on his
back spreading arms and legs to their
widest angle making himself as much
as possible like a starfish And his
speed at once decreased The addi
tional friction surface acted like a
brake A few feet from the edge of
the roof he came to anchor
ETelp he then shouted
But the slight movement of shouting
acted like a push and he slipped down
a few Inches more
Help And again he slid a little
Rut this time help came A rope was
thrown and the man climbed back to
safety
He wiped the dews of terror from
his brow
My boss in my apprentice days he
said told me if I ever started sliding
down a roof slope to spread out and It
would stop me I didnt believe him
but by jingo he was right
The man smiled and sighed musing
on his long dead boss Then he crawl
ed back to his dangerous work on the
steep slope of the roof Philadelphia

A LOST ART
Secret of tho Tools Used by the Incas
and the Aztecs
What was tho combination of met
als from which the Egyptians Aztecs
and the Incas of Peru manufactured
their tools and arms Though each of
these nations reached a high state of
civilization none of them ever discov
ered iron in spite of the fact that the
soil of all three countries was largely
impregnated with it But they substi
tuted for It a combination of metals
that had the temper of steel and the
secret of the combination is lost to
mankind
numboldt tried to discover the lost
art by analyzing a chisel found in an
ancient Inca silver mine but all he
could make of it was that it appeared
to be a combination of a small portion
of tin with copper No present known
way of combining these two metals
will give the hardness of steel so
there must have been something else
in the chisel which Humboldt missed
And these ancient races were able to
prepare pure copper so that it equaled
the temper of the finest steel produced
at the present day by the most scien
tific process With their bronze and
copper instruments they were able to
quarry and shape the hardest stone
such as granite and porphyry and
even cut emeralds The ancient peo
ples must have independently discov
ered the art of tempering copper and
yet it is a secret that baffles modern
scientists of the whole civilized world

A Weed That Steals Oysters
A seaweed has invaded tiie oyster
beds of France and carried off 400000
oysters It has carried them off bodily
as a thief would do The minute seeds
of this weed float up the English chan
nel in the current of the gulf stream
they settle on oysters in the Breton
beds of Morbihan Quiberon and Belle
Isle and they grow to the size of a
ducks egg They are full of water
but at maturity the water evaporates
and air takes its place The egg shaped
seaweed is then a balloon and like a
balloon it lifts its oyster from the bot
tom and bears it out to sea
