The birch is first sawed into sticks four

the size OF the spool to DO produced. These
sticks are thoroughly seasoned. They are
sawed into short blocks, and the blocks are
dried in hot air kiln. At the time they are
sawed hole is bored through them.
One whirl OF the little block
against sha'p knives, sbarpened by pa-
fern, makes the spool at the rate
Of one per second. A small boy feeds the
spool machine, simply placing the blocks
in spout aud throwing out the knotty or
defective stock. The machine Is automatic,
but can not DO the sorting. The spools are
revolvCd rapidly In drums and polish
themselves. For some purposes they are
dyed yellow, red, or black. They are made
in Thousands Of shapes and sizes. When
one sees on q spool Of thread 100 yards"
or 1900 yards" these words do Rot signify the
thread has been measured, but that the
spool has been gagged and is supposed to
contain so much thread. When q silk or
linen or cotton firm wants spool made
It sendsa pattern 10 the Rpool.maser. This
pattern gives the sZ and shape OF the bar

terms determine the amount OF thread that

His years spools are worth $4,000. Thirty.

in this country we are all kings,
and we are all entitled to have as
good blood as that which courses
through the veins OF emperors.
There are princes and million.
aires languishing in feebleness and
broken.down bodily health who
would be glad to have the strength
Of the humblest laboring man.
And there are many people who
are neither kings, emperors, nor
millionaires, whose blood is thin,
whose circulation is poor, who are
suffering from lassitude and debility,
and who know. not the pleasure ola
hearty meal, nor the enjoyment OF
being able to do good days work.
Ifsuch people will put some iron
into their blood, they will vitalize
and enrich it. They can do this by
the use Of Browns Iron Bitters, the
purest and most excellent iron med
icine ever made. Thousands who
were weak, languid, pale, and pros
trated, are now happy to say that
Browns Iron Bittcrs brought them

wooes the sportsmen 10 the "happy hunt.
ing lands" around Bridgeport, West Viz
GINA: Though strangely overlooked by
sportsmen, this is one OF the finest hunt
ing grounds on the continent. All the
land is full Of grouse and quail, and the
mountains abound in deer and bear. The
pigs are fattened on trout in the wild, re-
mote districts, where game laws are un-
known. The Valley OF Oanadn is filed
with puma and deer; boarding in the
mounlain cabins, is free Of cost, and the
wild, beautiful lands Is the hunters para
dise--not house within thirty miles,
save, perhaps, the hut or cave OF
the mo Dshiner. The valley is the bed Of
au ancient lake, level aud beautiful as any
Texas prairie; the BackwaIer winds slowly
among the tangled laurel, and the puma,
the bear and the deer, are seldom alarmed
by the volce Of hunters gun. The scenery
ia grand aud beautiful among those noun
tains. The castellated rocks are like the
ruins Of old cathedrals, and the moss 10
deep and soft as Persian carpets. Flocks
OF wild turkeys feed under the greenwood
tree" mGs Of emerald and gold. Some
times in autumn, the white umbrella OF
the painter is seen by the waterfall, or
among the hollies in the mountain gorge;
but the wild duck dreams on the river, and
the deer among the laurel, and the hunter
comes not from the far North land"

That climate and food have an effect on
the prowth and condition OF horses, no one
OF an observing turn OF mind will attempt
10 deny, but an English contemporary puts
it pretty strong when it says that the quss'
ton OF breeding Is no doubt very impor-
taht one, but we must know also the eli.
mate they breathed, the average rainfall,
the chemical constituents OF the soil, the
pasture, and everything in animals history
nowadays. Where nature won't breed
them man need never try, and nature
won't grow grapes where she has been
given material to grow gocseberries.
Thousands Of pounds have been lost BY
breeders ignoring the conditions OF soil
aud climate, and thousands Of pounds are,
no doubt, being lost at the present time.
