Spool Making.

Here, for instance, are huge stacks
of timber, and our ears are greeted
with the hum and birr so certainly as
sociated with n saw mill This long
range of buildings is entirely devoted
to the making of spools. The ma.
chimes employed are various. Here
the wood is being cut into short
lengths; there hole is being punched
through the small round pieces; while
yonder, machine shapes the rough
wood into smooth spool in one swift
stroke.
1t is by means of the wood required
to make these spools that-we get some
conception of the enormous output OF
this factory. Each day there is AZ
much thread finished here as would
wind round the world several times,
and in order to produce spools for the
thread, it is calculated that an extent
of forest planted with birch trees
covering $50 acres has to be cut down
every year, while, on an average,
twelve ships of ge-carrying capacity
are employed each season in bringing
the wood across to this country from
America and Canada. Good Words.

The Making OF Ely PAPER.

The substance used in the sticky pa
per employed to catch flies is kind OF
bird lime. The regular bird lime is
made from the bark Of the holly by
boiling it and condensing the product
until it is about the consistency of mo.
lasses. 1t is tho stickiest stuff known
to the chemist. A fly that touches the
paper never gets away to tell the tale;
bird that lights on the t~'ig thai has
been smeared with it finds escape an
impossibility. Tho use of it on paper
to destroy insects is an Indian inven-
tion. In Hindostan flies and mosquitoes
make life a burden, and without the
sheets of sticky paper hung everywhere
about the roof and on the walls, exist
snce would be misery.

small-provided they have equal strength

put up in better way, ard they act in
better way, than the huge old-fashioned pills.
What you want when you're "al out of

up your system and start your liver into
healthful action. Sick Headache, Bilious
Headache, Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all arrangements of the liver,

THE SWEET POTATO,
hIade Into d Pie. Fried, EscaIIoped In n
Deep Dish.


Deep Dish.
Ordinarily tho sweet potato is
either roasted or boiled. When it Is
recooked, 1t Is generally fried; but
there are several other ways of pre-
pairing it, according to the New York
Tribune. A method that is almost
unknown at the North Is to fry the
raw potato in hot fat For this pur-
pose the potato should be peeled
and cut in thin lengh- wise Slices and
laid in a broad spider of hot lard,
deep enough to immerse the slices
AS they brown on one side and rise
to the top, turn them and let th IN
brown on the other as the under side
OF an article immersed In boiling fat
browns before the upper side.
A nice way to prepare cold boiled
sweet potatoes is to escaIlop them.
Slice them In thin circles, sprinkle
them with salt and pepper, and put
them in shallow dish which has
been well buttered. Moisten the
potatoes with little brown stock or
gravy thinEed with water, and add
n few bits of butter Continue till
the dish is full Then set 1t In a
very hot oven for ten or fifteen min
utes to brown. Few Northern
housewives are acquainted with the
sweet potato pie Of the South. This
Is made of dry, mealy potatoes which
are rubbed through sicve in the same
way as pumpkin. To two cups of the
strained potato add pint of milk,
two eggs, a saltspoon Of salt, half q
teaspoon of nutmeg, teaspoonful OF
cinnamon, with sugar enough to
sweeten the pie. The amount will
depend largely upon the sweetness of
the potatoes. Bake in an under crust
like pumpkin pie

Good Cooks in China,

British husbands, when their dinner
parties turn out failures, are apt to
grumble at their wives for the cooks
misdemeanors, but they abstain from
the practical style of rebuking prac.
ticed by the celestials. Recently the
Chinese professor of university gave
national banquet to fellow professors
and was much put out because the
cookery was not to his taste. After a
time IL, he he got up, bowed solem11ly, said,
ing pre- emily, smiling as blandly as
cious chastisement to his botter half.

Youth and Old Age.

"Why is it" asked an elderly gem
tleman who has been all over the world,
"that young man will insist upon
having other people think he is n much
older man than he really is, and an old
man makes himself silly by trying to
pose as a young man? These are GER
tainly two extremes, but if you have
had any experience Mt all, you will re-
cognize the fact that what say is true.
The boys will simulate maturity and
the old men will try to appear young.
Which is the most laughable? ?"--Phila-

Cause for ThankfuIncss.

An exchange relates this incident

One of the Turkish dancers that was
imported for the Midwinter fair has
been wandering over the state, giving
exhibitions in what is called muscle
dancing wherever the police would al.
it, appeared in Salem last night before
small select audience at the rooms
formerly occupied by the Q. P. chop
house. AS these dances are not adver-
tisements for any legitimate, educa-
tional, charitable or moral enterprise,
and seem to be conducted secretely,
they will not be encouraged in these
columns. American boys and girls
can learn all about their muscles that is
necessary at the Y. M. G. A. school
and at home without importing one of
these Turkish women.

The charge against Winters is that

the others being that he will win as he
has time record, though not made in
