Deaths from Lightning
An abstract of some statistics com
piled in France on lightning accidents
chows that during the past sixty seven
years for every one person killed three
or four are wounded In the month of
March the average deaths amount to 1
v per cent in April 3 in May 7 in June
end on to September 30 20 31 and 15
respectively in October 12 Most of
the cafies occur in fields and roads but
particularly under trees In a period of
thirty years 1700 persons were killed
under trees who probably would not
have been injured if they had not takon
refuge there and one out of every four
has been killed while sheltering under
branches In France there have been
eight deaths per 100000 inhabitants

Friendly Persecution in Sickness
How many invalids would protest if
they dared against the persecutions
they are compelled to endure from
friends who feel it their duty to call
and condole with the sick One suf
ferer breaks out in this manner
I feel as if I had just been to my
own funeral and it was a very sad
affair
How so
I was killed by a friendly call My
neighbor over the way with a face jls
solemn as an owl has just been in to
see me and he kindly remarked that I
was so changed he shouldnt have
known me and he hoped Id pull
through which meant Tm sure you
cant last long poor fellow and had
I heard that J who was taken sick
at the same time I was had been given
up by the doctors He mentioned sev
eral other equally cheerful items
which made me feel as if I should tly
into a thousand pieces
A call like that is enough to kill
anybody who doesnt know how to re
sist the influence of such sympathy
Heaven save the mark if that is sym
pathy I call it torture I do wish my
friends would talk to me of something
besides myself and how I look and
how I feel for I am reminded of all
that far too often If they want to
show their friendship and help me get
well they will help me to forget my
self and all my difficulties Pray
throw open the windows and let in the
sunshine to dry off the dampness and
gloom of that neighborly call

Changed the Bill
It was on one of my early trips
said the conductor A well dressed
man got on my car and when I went
to him for his fare he handed me a 5
bill I took the bill and examined it
pretty close as I always do with big
bills I didnt have any too much
change so I held the bill in my hand
and said Havent jrou anything small
er The man said I dont think so
but he took the bill and crumped it
up in his hand while he searched
through his pockets for smaller money
Then he shook his head and handed
back the crumpled bill I didnt look
at it again but stuck it in my pocket
and counted out 495 change Well
when I counted my money at the end
of the run I found myself just 4 short
Then I tumbled to the game The
sharper had cleverly changed the fiver
for a one while he was looking
through his pockets and I simply bit
like a sucker But say you can bet
I wont bite again

A TALK WITH MES PMfflAM
About the Cause of Anemia
Everybody comes into this world with a pre
disposition to disease of some particular tissue
in other words everybody has a weak spot
In ninety nine cases out of a hundred the
weak spot in women is somewhere in the uter
ine system The uterine organs have less re
sistance to disease than the vital organs thats
why they give out the soonest
Not more than one woman in a hundred
nay in five hundred has perfectly healthy organs of generation This points
to the stern necessity of helping ones self just as soon as the life powers seem
n h on the wane
Excessive menstruation is a sign of physical weakness and want of tone
in the uterine organs It saps the strength away and produces anemia blood
turns towater
If su become anemic there is no knowing what will happen If your gums
ansthe inside of your lips and inside your eyelids look pale in color you are

MACHINE SETS TYPE
Familiar Mechanical Principles Ap
plied in a Novel Manner
A British syndicate Is putting on the
inavket a machine called the monotype
the object of which Is to automatically
cast and settype in lines suitable o be
arranged Into pages for printing The
part of the mechanism that determines
the order in which the letters or other
characters shall appear is a perforated
strip of paper that Is to be prepared by
t If rJ V l - Vi if
THE ArXlIlAIy MACHINE
the author or copyist of the matter that
is to appear in print This preliminary
work is accomplished on an auxiliary
machine like a typewriter
The author or copyist sits at his aux
iliary machine and operates it exactly
as he would a typewriter The cylin
der is supplied with a roll instead of a

All S yVi - V J V
volves and the paper is attached by a
series of small punches that drive holes
through it After having passed the
punches it is rolled up on another cylin
der
After the operator has finished the
perforated roll is removed and attached
to the casting machine or monotype
proper A lever is turned and the ma
chine suddenly becomes a thing of life
Almost instantly a glistening type-letter
marches out of a door in the ma
chine immediately followed by anoth
er and another and another They
march along at right angles to what
may be called an ordinary printers gal
ley Nobody is near When the line of
type is as long as the width of the gal
ley it gravely steps forward aided by
a metal arm and takes its place in the
galley ready for business It seems
magical and the gravity with which
the metal letters march along is irre
sistibly comic each one seems a living
being a well drilled soldier doing a
march past
That is the whole matter the one ma
chine aided by the operator punches
the paper the other machine produces
and sets up the type aided by no nian
and sets it up in such a fashion that
you could take your stereo or print from
it at once The type which emerges
from the machine was one third of a
second ere it started part of simple
molten metal in a pot When the per
foration in the ribbon of paper reaches
a particular spot a portion of that molt
en metal is forced into a molt then
molded into type cooled picked out
and set on its legs or rather leg And
the operation is repeated about three
times In the second
No new principle of science is involv
ed no startling development of electri
city As a matter of fact the machine
is driven by electricity but any other
force would serve as well The actual
casting and setting is done by means of
compressed air The machine works as
fast as three compositors and since it
produces new type each dine the ques
tion of bad impressions from wornout
type or plate disappears It produces
automatically a perfect justification
in other words spacing In the case of
writers who can typewrite no ques
tion of difficult scribbling occurs For
the typewriting part being separate
from the castings the author can write
on the machine and send over the per
forated rolls to the office to be put into
the machines
The machine has been rigorously test
ed by many practical men who are
unanimous as to its speed efficacy and
the quality of work it produces The
THE MOXOTYPE MACHINE
economy that it effects is obvious One
engineer can attend ten machines each
working as fast as three compositors
and much of the typewriting work will
probably be done by the authors and
even without this the saving is enor

liaoemaking Machine
The problem of making by machin
ery lace which cannot possibly be dis
tinguished from that made by hand
seems to be solved by a machine in
vented by a Spaniard and now In use
in a great Nottingham lace factory It
claims to reproduce any pattern that
can be made by hand on the cushion
and one third finer than the average
quantity of lace The mechanism has
a speed of 130 motions per minute
which can be raised to 200 so that a
machine SO inches wide making 2 inch
breadths would perform the work of
forty women The design is pricked
out on a cushion ruled in squares and
lace pins stuck at the corners of the
6quares Tvhere they remain until the
lace Is finished The real lace is then
decomposed by the woman who made
it She has at her side an assistant
who takes down the figures as they are
called out to her The rows of pins or
motions are worked down the left side
of the cushion draught the number of
threads Is marked from left to right
along the top and the maker reads the
number to her assistant while decom
Iosing the exact motion of etch thread
being recorded The paper on which
the motions are marked is then taken
to the puncher who prepares the cards
accordingly and the cards being placed
on the machine reproduce exactly the
same design The machine is small
entirely automatic and is only stopped
to fill the bobbins The bands of lace
are not attached to each other each
being -woven separate The threads
do not become dirty or discolored and
the lace comes from the machine ready
for the wearer

Under Her Thumb
He had not been married over a year
and his friends asserted with some
truth that he was still under his wifes
thumb
While admitting the soft impeach
ment he was accustomed to plead in ex
tenuation that it was a very nice little
thumb to be under
When he had cracked this joke for
the fiftieth time people began to say he
was uxorious Several accused him of
genius and some of possessing original
ity
It was 730 oclock They had just
finished dinner and he extended his
legs across the hearth rug with a feel
ing of luxurious ease The cheerful
blaze behind him imparted a friendly
glow to his whole being He drew
forth from his vest pocket as had long
been his habit a small pill box which
he meditatively held between his thumb
and finger

Iiittlc Notion Lone in Coming
Until within a few years spirit levels
were made with perfectly smooth
sides and there wis more or less dan
ger of dropping them in carrying them
about and up and down ladders and
so on Half a dozen years ago some
body thought of cutting a groove or
channel in the wood on each side of
the level to make a hand hold It
may seem strange that nobody had
thought of this simple device before
but apparently nobody had The man
that did think of it got it patented
and now the levels are made with this

S I lurre recently read of four easef where Ripani Tabules reliered people from severe suflerin g
which thr experienced from the -necessity of living in an impure atmosphere First there was
man wbo ept a lo cent lodging house ia the Bowery New York He found that a Tabule taken
sow and then kept him from getting sick in that polluted atmosphere Then there was a man who
worked in a coal mine in Ohio where the great distance under the hills made it impossible to get
pure air the air being forced to the men by great fans which would sometimes cease their motion oa
account of breaks in the machinery and then the air would become very bad indeed causing pains
in the head dizzinoss and fainting This man found a Ripans Tabuletakenat such a time woula pre
serve him from the pain he had previously experienced Another miner well known in Scranton Pz
suffered from the foul atmosphere he breathed for so many years in the mines resulting there from the
gases and damp My stomach suffered most said he Finally he was induced to make trial of
jRipans Tabules and was so much benefited that he now makes a practice of carrying a few of the
magic Tabules in his pocket so as to be able to swallow one at the first sign of approaching trouble
The fourth case is that of a Philadelphia tailor who hadcharge pHhe manufacturing department and
-was obliged to spend hours ata time in thepressing sponging andironing department in an overheated
room where the atmosphere is verjr heavy and disagreeable This resulted in giving him frequent
leadachex from which he sometimes suffered great torture The medicines prescribed by hi
physician brought no relief and he was he said on the verge of despair when a friend one day
advised him to try Ripans Tabules He did so and the result was that tbe first two Tabules wrought
with him an almost marie change I escape all headaches now he writes and no matter how
hot the room is one Tabule does away with all suffering I always carry some with me for aa
Emergency and can sincerely recommend them
