The Remarkable Ingenuity which Secured
Pardon for Russian Convict.

The Remarkable Ingenuity Which Secured
Pardon for n Russian Convict.
A watch described in the Scientific
American is an excellent illustration of
what may be accomplished by a combi-
nation of ingenuity, skill and persist
ency. It is a watch made almost
wholly of wood by matchmaker, who
was convicted of some crime and sent
to Siberia by the Russian government.
The convict made this watch to while
away his time, and was pardoned be-
cause of his work. The only tool he
had to work with was a penlznife. Ir-
regularity in the work can only be dis
cerned by examining it with a glass.
Nevertheless it is remarkably accurate
and the watch runs and keeps fair time.
The wood used was box wood. The
numerals on the face are small pieces
of ivory. inlaid. The dial wheels are
of ivory, and are set on the face of the
dial The hour, minute and second
hands are of tortoise shell. The second
dial is recessed on the lower part of
the main dial. The wheels and plates
of the movement are of wood, while
the pinions, balance, cylinder and es-
capement wheel are of ivory. The
rachel. spring is of wood. The plates
are held together by wooden pins and
the balance bridge by ivory screws.
The key with which the watch is
wound is made of wood with an ivory
sip, and is made like modern rachel
key. The winding square" is of OBJ
long shape. This ingenious watch
maker also constructed the box in
which the watch is contained. All the
joints are perfect, so that the box it
practically dust proof.

MADE YOUNG BY THE CIRCUS.

A ChiIdIess Pittsburgher's Vain Quest for
an Excuse to Visit the Sawdust Ring.
1t is surprising how paternal men be-
come when a circus comes to town.
They must get fatherly to become child
ish. A Pittsburgh Dispatch reporter
saw one man the other day who spent
most of the forenoon trying to ssbor-
row boy to take to the circus He
confided to me that the circus was one
thing that made the blood thrill in his
veins, but his dignity would not per-
NIT him to attend one without sufficient
excuse. As he had no children OF his
own he was forced to hunt up somebody
who would loan him child to take to
the show. He said: s'But the strang-
est part of it all is that was unable to
get one. Now, you would imagine
that there would be plenty of children
around anxious to see circus, and you
would be right; but the supply did not
equal the demand. By actual count l
went to twelve of my friends who have
growing boys and requested that l
might give the little fellows some
pleasure by taking them. Without a
single exception they thanked me very
much for my kindness, and said they
were going to take them themselves.
NOW, would teel FOOLISH gong to a
circus without l had child with me.
Yet do not know of anything like
better. It brings back the old days
when 1 was in the country, a bare
footed boy following the parade, look
ing with wonderment at the lone ele-
phant plodding along, The smell of
the sawdust. the cries of the peanut
and lemonade man are as pleasant to
me as the new mown hay and singing
birds. They are the chemicals which
develop the unseen image which is
upon the plate of memory, and it comes
this all, for, thanks to the same feel
ing in the hearts of my father friends,
all the available excuses were taken
up. Go myself? What do you take me
for? Do you think l would allow any
one to think would enjoy such a thing
as a circus? Never

What do you do when You need some

other who carried herself with an opu-
lent air and who was famous for dis
covering cash in times of financial dis

''Well," replied the other bachelor,
''I'll tell you, if you won't tell anybody.

Icnorance in nrexioo.

Says an American business man who
has been living in Mexico: What
Mexico most needs is education The
ignorance of the poems is astonishing.
If the great churchesof America, which
are yearly sending millions of dollars
to China and Africa to educate the
heather there, would devote a fair pro-
portion of that money to Mexico far
more good would be accomplished. The
money would be better spent and re-
suits more apparent The few mis-
sionaries in that country are doing
good, but their number is not suf-
icient. Then less theology and more
liberal education should be taught,
sectarianism should not interfere with
the work. Strange as it may seem, the
English tongue has displaced the
French as foreign tongue, and is rap
idly being learned by the younger ma
tives'

Of improvements - DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. To begin with,
they're the smallest, and the easiest
to take. They're tiny, sugar-coated
anti-bilious granules, scarcely larger
than mustard seeds. Every child
is ready for them.
Then, after they're taken, instead
of disturbing and shocking the sys-
tenn, they act in mild, easy and
natural way. There's no chance for
any reaction afterward. Their help
lasts. Constipation, Indigestion,
Bilious Attacks, Sick or Bilious
Headaches, and all arrangements
of the liver, stomach, and bowels
are promptly relieved and perma-
nently cured.
They're put up in glass vials,
which keeps them always fresh and
reliable, unlike the ordinary pills in
wooden or pasteboard boxes.
And they're the cheapest pills you
can buy, for they're guaranteed to
give satisfaction, or your money is
returned. You pay only for the
good you get.

WOOD FOR KINDLING.
How 1t Is Prepared by Steam and Ma
cffnery for Use.

C11AlSEI LOE Oefts
Pine kindling wood comes principally
from the forests of Virginia The
trees, says the Scientific American, are
first cut down and the trunks quar-
tered and sawed into proper lengths.
The wood is then carted to the coast,
packed into sailing vessels and brought
to this section, where it is bought up
at the docks by the dealers and manu-
factured into kindling wood, being
first sawed into short lengths, then
passed through steam splitter which
carries the pieces to an elevator, which
IN turn passes them along and drops
them down into the delivery wagons.
The pieces of timber, which are four
feet six inches in length, are first sawed
into eight and one-ha1f inch lengths,
the saws used for the purpose being
thirty inches in diameter, one-eighth
of an inch in thickness, having fifty
inch and quarter teeth. These saws
make about two thousand revolutions
per minute, the attendant being able
to saw up about from twelve to fifteen
cords per day. The pieces as fast
as they are sawed are passed to a
steam splitter They are first placed
end up on a movable endless chain,
which, by the aid of two hexagon
wheels and ratchet wheel which is
worked by an eccentric, causes the
chain with the wood to move along
under the kives, which pass down
through the pieces of wood, splitting
each of them into a dozen or more
pieces.
The knives are four in number and
bolted into the crosshead. They are
twelve inches in length, six inches in
thickness. The knives pass up and
down perpendicular slide with
twelve-inch stroke, making about
eighty cuts per minute. The endless
chain is twelve inches in width, and
passes over wooden bed, the top of
which is covered with an iron plate
which protects the chain from the
blows of the knives when striking the
wood. AT every downward stroke of the
knives moveable bearing which the
knives pass through holds the pieces
of wood down firmly against the chain.
With the upward stroke it releases the
split wood, which is moved forward
about two inches at a stroke by the
chain, which is worked by the ratchet
wheel and eccen trio. The pieces of
wood then drop down into an elevator
at the end of the machine and are car
ried off to the delivery wagons by
number of buckets bo1ted on a twelve
inch cotton belt These buckets are
eighteen inches apart, and made of
wooden strips three inches in height
and about one and one-half inches in
thickness. They are held in place by
being bolted to narrow iron strips on
the under side of the belt The belt is
about forty-fve feet in length, and
travels about one thousand feet per
minute. The splitting machine can
cut about twenty cords per day. A
delivery wagon holding about one cord
can be filed in about fifteen minutes.
The wholesale price of Virginia pine
at the dock is from seven dollars to
eight dollars per cord, the manufac-
tured lzindling wood brings from eleven
dollars to thirteen dollars per cord

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
infamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result. and unless
the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever !;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh. which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness tcaused by catarlhN
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

a LEGEND Of CALVARY.
About the Soldier Who Pierced Christ
Side with the Spear.

About the Soldier Who Pierced Christ's
Side with the Spear.
The name of the soldier who pierced
Christ's side with the spear while he
was hanging on the cross has been pre-
served in the legendary lore of the
church as Longinus, says the ST. Louis
Republic. This man was one of the
soldiers appointed to keep guard at the
cross, and it is said that he was con-
verted by the miracles which attended
the crucifxion. The legend even goes
further, declaring that he was one of
the company of watchers set to guard
the sepulcher, and that he was the
only one who refused to be bribed to
say that the body of our Saviour
had been stolen by the disciples.
For his fidelity to this great truth, Pi-
late resolved upon his destruction. On
this account Longinus left the army
to devote his entire time to spreading
the gospel; but he did this without
first getting permission from the gov
ernor of Judea, or from Rome. He and
two fellow soldiers whom he had con-
verted retired to Cappadocia, where
they began to preach the word of God.
At the instigation of some of the
leading Jews, however, PLATE sent out
a detachment of soldiers who surprised
the deserters at place where they
were holding a Christian meeting, and
where they had three crosses set up
as an illustration of the tragedy which
had occurred but short while before
at Jerusalem. All three were killed
and beheaded, and their heads nailed
upon the crosses and carried in triumph

AMBULANCE FOR MINE USE.

Passsgeways.

It Is Adapted to Crooked and Uneven
Passageways.
The difficulty of carrying injured
men in mines through narrow and un-
even passages has often been recog-
nized. An apparatus invented by DIR.
Paul Troisfontaines is described by the
t'Semaine Industrielle," of Brussels,
and seems to be simple and convenient,
as well as cheap. 1t consists of sort
of hurdle or litter, made of hoops about
eight nm. in diameter, placed parallel
and joined by fabric of cord or mat,
somewhat like hammock, thus giving
when required rigidity in one direc-
tion and fiexibility in the other. The
injured man is laid in the litter with
his legs extended and his arms at the
side of his body; the upper part of the
litter is then folded over and secured
by three or four straps. The man
then forms package, and can be car
ried without the slipping and jolting
of an ordinary litter, no matter how
narrow or rough the workings may be.
In case of fracture there is believed to
be less danger in carrying man in
this way, holding him immovable, than
in attempting to keep the broken limb
in place by rough splints or bandages
extemporized on the spot. These lit
ters can be easily stored in small

The Moons NTovernents.

The inhabitants of this earth have
never seen but one side of the moon.
The explanation is this: The moon
makes one revolution on her axis in
the same period of time that she takes
up in revolving once around the earth;
thus the same geographic region of the
lunar surface is always toward us.
