The famous mechanism was moth

with big wooden box fastened firmly
upon the axle, making a rough kind of

The strings which sustain the kites
tail should be fastened to the sticks at
their lower ends, and when drawn taut
their center should be just long
enough to reach the crossing of the
sticks. To these strings the tail is tied
firmly in the center, and care should
be taken that the knot comes exactly in
the middle.
The pictures show the proper way to

Have young friend to hold it, fac

But 10 my body gave N - soul.

And Adam gave 10 me my name;

And more OF Adam never knew.

Nor from IL ever went astray;
Thousands of miles go in fear,
But seldom ON the earth appear.
For purpose wise which God did see,
He put living soul In me;

And took from me that soul again;
For, when from me that soul had fed,

And, without hands or feet or soul,

Although my name in them is found,
They are TO me an empty sound.

make another loop two and half
inches from the first, and proceed as in
the first case, continuing in like man

My own plan is to use one yard of
blue and one yard of red flannel. and
one yard of common muslin. Three
yards will be more than enough ma
