The Modern Pin Machine,

When pins were first invented, some
time during the third decade of the
sixteenth century, it took one man a
whole day to make two dozen, the
market price of the days output be-
ing but three shillings. Even as late
in the present century as 1888, one pin
went through the hands of twelve per-
sons before it was finished and folded
away in the little sheet of paper of the
regulation green. To-day, however,
everything is different in the pin fac.

sharp-pointed implements at the rate
of 200 per minute, day and night.
This wonderful little making
automaton is not larger than sewing
machine, but it has more invisible
knives, springs, sharpeners and pinch
ers about it than steam thrasher.
The wire from which the pins are made
is coiled around small drum attached
to the rear end OF the machine, differ
ent sizes of wire and pincEers being
used for the several varieties of pins.
The wire passes from the drum into
the machine through small hole pro-
vidcd for that purpose being kept
straight and taut by n brake on the
drum and series of iron pegs across
the platform Of the machine. A queer
little pair of pinchers (''catchers''l
seizes the wire and thrusts it through
hole, where it is held while small
hammer beats "head" on the for
war1 end of the wire. Here it is held
until knife descends and cuts the
wire in proper pin length. Next it is
allowed to drop into groove through
which the heads cannot pass. and
while being held in that position is
exposed to the action of set of small
files, which almost instantly give it a
smooth, sharp point. The pin is now
finished and ready for the polishing

of all cases of consumption can, if taken in
the earlier stages of the disease, be cured
This may seem like a bold assertion to
those familiar only with the means gener-
ally i'll use for its treatment as nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy cniulsions, extract
of malt, whiskey, different preparations of
hypophosphites and such like baiitaffveS.
Although by many believed to be incura-
bic there is the evidence of hundreds OF
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stages, consumption is durable
disease. Not every case, but large per-
cenfage Of cases, and we believe, /nlLy 99
per cent are cured by DR.. Picrce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
blecdngs from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectcration Gnclnd-
ing tubercular matterl, great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation end weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to US as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease2 You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been SO pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly preiudiced and advised against
trial Of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal inalady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bcne-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis
lingering coughs asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies have been
skilfully reproduced in a book of 100
pages which will be mailed to you, on re-
ceipt of address and six cents i'll stamps.
You can then write those cured and learn
their experience.

Too Honest.

Uncle ID. p. Oliver now a prosper

village, once practiced law in Ohio.
Being met by an old acquaintan &C,
he was asked for the particulars of
his giving up the profession.
"Didn't 1t agree with your health?"
ooh, yes" answered Uncle David.
"Dldn't 1t pay?"

"Well, I'll tell you. 1 was too hon.

A loud laugh from the bystanders
aroused Cncle David into earnest.

statement and nailed it to his shop

''And he was acquitted. So you

"No; he was convicted"
Then he was guilty."
"No; he was innocent?"

Nestrls, the great dancing master,
died at SO, and it was said he would
have lived till hund ed but for a
sudden and mortal blow in the shape
of an advertisement. One day he
asked for a newspaper-probably for
the first time In his life. Scarcely
had he opened the sheet, when his
eyes lighted upon the following:
"Wantcd, a professor Of dancing at
Calcutta. Must be a skillful chirop-

"James, dear, will you bring me a
hod Of coal from the cellar?" said a
busy wife.
''Thats just the way with you,
said James, with fIown, as he put
down his book and rose from the arm
chair.

Yes" he snapped. AS soon as
you see me enjoying myself, you have
something or OF or for me to do.

"WeIl, dear, will do it myself"
'les, and tell everybody-your
mother especially-that you have to
carry your own coal up from the Gel
lar No, I'll do it. Let me mark
my place"
SO he marked the place in the book
at which he had ceased reading, and
when he went down to the cellar,
grumblirg all the way, she picked up
the volume, and found that it was a
love story, aud that the passage he
had been absorbed in was as fol-
lows
"My darling, when you are my
wife, l will shield and protect you
from every care; the winds of heaven
shall not visit your face too roughly,
those pretty hands shall never be
soiled by mcnial tasks your wish
shall he my law, your happiness"
Just then he reappeared, and drop
ping the hod upon the floor, said:-
There's your coal! Give me my
