Her gown was Of white satin, but one

Ancient Swords.

In the early ages. before men knew
anything about civilized ways. they
lived In caves and had to protect them
selves not only from the attacks Of ami
mails. but from those Of their human
brothers as well. The first weapon
their unaccustomed fingers shaped was
a war club. Experience. however. soon
taught them that a deadlier blow might
be delivered with a weapon that would
cut rather than crush, and they made
a Ratchet. Then. one day. someone
discovered a substance In the secret
stores OF the good brown earth on
which he finally learned to put keener
edge than he had ever been able to
chip on his stone Ratchet and the
sword was made.

turbines. Six feeder cables will be run
to various portions OF the city. and the
current. transmitted at n pressure OF
$500 volts, will be transformed AT sub
