Pennsylyania Wide Tire Law.

The attorney general Of Pennsylvania
gave the following opinion as TO one Of
the provisions OF the wide tire act:
THE evident purpose Of this legislation
was to prevent as far as possible the use
Of narrow tires and wagons upon which
heavy loads We're carried and to en-
courage the Use Of wide tires to the end
that the roads should be injured as little
as possible. He is Of the opinion, how
ever. that farmer whose draft wagons
carrying 1000 pounds or more and who
has them equipped with four inch tires
and uses no wagon with a narrower tire
FOR the purpose of carrying ?, 600 pounds
or more brings himself within the pro-
visions Of this act and is entitled to the
rebate Of oue-fourth Of the assessed high
way tax

When the Day WIN BE a Month Long

Do you know that the day, which is now
only ga hours long, is slowly increasing in
length, and that 1t will eventually be 25,
20 or even 100 hours In length? This
statement, strange as IL may sound to one
who has never read the results OF observn
tions made ON that score. is believed to be
true In every respect. Not only will the
earth's motion slow up until the day will
bo one, two and three times as long as 1t
is at present but this pace slackening proc
ess will increase with time, until the day
will eventually be a week or even month
in length. The retarding medium,
which the astronomers speak of as being
the cause Of his phenomena, Is not fully
understood at present Professor Ball says
that it is the friction OF the tides which is
responsible fer the most Of 1t. He urges
that the time Will come when the day Will
be full year in length Others among
the Investigators along this line declare
that it will be absolutely impossible for
this day lengthening process to increase
beyond one lunar month.
This certainly looks plausible II we con-
slider the tides as being the cause OF the
trouble. However Professor Ball, who
has long been astronomer royal of Ireland
and the greatest British authority on as
tronomy, knows just about whereof he
speaks, and If be says the day must even
tually leugthen year we had better pre-
pare for the nightless season without ask
ing any questIons.-St. Louis Republic.

WHERE ANCHORS ARE MADE.
An Industry That Floprlshcs Best In Cam,

There Ia a larger number Of ships an
chors manufactured In the little town OF
Camden Ne, than ut all the other places
in this country combined. All Of the
stately -ht0s that como out Of tho Mime

BAY for their anchors. sturdy y .tGs
swins tAtir hammers day after day al lie
year long In the black, smoky, long, low
Camden shops. where only anchors are
forged Sometimes the trip hammers are
going all night about the FORCES and the
blazing Of the fires and the ring OF the
hamnury are seen and heard for miles
across the bay.
Thousands Of tons Of old iron are pur-
chased ~ these queer Camden establish
mepts every year, for anchors are forged
largely from cast of iron. The material Is
cut into small pieces by great shears that
olin through the iron as easily as a cheese
knife slices a cheese. The pieces are bound
into bundles by strong wires and are then
fused In the forges Then they are pounded
and ushkd Into the various parts OF the
anchor, some worknen fashioning rings,
others shaping the flukes, others ham
mering out the palms and others forg-
Ing the shanks Then the "complcters
take the different parts and fuse and weld
them into the finished anchor. Anchors
Of all sizes and weights are turned out
from the noisy shops Of Camden from the
graceful little pleasure boat anchor, weigh
ing but "a few pounds. TO the great 5000
and :, 800 pound anchors for the biggest
ships.
The visitor In Camden will see many In
tercsiing relies In the line OF rusty and
broken anchors that did duty in their dag
on famous IL. :, hHnt vessels, historic war
ships and sturdy whslers. The anchor OF
the famous frisate Cumberland was re-
paired and fitted with new stock ut the
Camden works and is now ut sea on the
foreoastle Of big ship. The old stock
was splinsrod up for the qualification Of
relic hunters, and there Is only n silver or
two Of ths historic wood left In Camden.
This was the anchor which went down
with the Cumberland when she sank after
her fight with the Nerrlmao In Hampton
Roads, hence the great demand for splin-
tiers of the stock.
There are something like 5000 people
living In Camden, and anchor making Is
the principal industry there. brooklyn

COSTLY NiOLINS.


The Awaits turned out instruments OF
great beauty. some, indeed, being of in
descrhable grace and finish, but the tone
Is rather soft-small and without body, =
as the violinist would put it-and for this
reason their violins do not command the
highest figures. \ Nicola Amati may be
had for from $50 to $500, according to
size, pattern, preservation, pedigree, etc
A good Andreas Amati, more suitable for
chamber than for ordinary concert use,
can be got for $50. Andreas, who died
about 1877, was the founder of the Amati
family. Very few authentic instruments
of his make are extant, and those that do
exist are not in n high state OF proserva
ton. Nicola, the grandson, WAS the
most eminent OF the name, and he is be
sides deserving OF social honor as having
been the master OF Stradivarius. Al
though he worked, as a rule, on the small
pattern adopted by the rest of the Amatis,
he made some very fine large yiolins-the
so called grand Amatis which are al
most worshiped N these days, and which
hold the field in the matter OF prices.
Even during his lifetime his Instruments
were in high reputc Charles l Y Of France
gave him an order for l2 yiolins, 6 violas
and celloS for his private band.
Before the French revolution G7S9)
most of these instruments could be seen
IN the chapel royal. but after the days of
the 9Th and 9th OF October, 1890, they all
mysteriously disappeared, and their subse
Quent history Is uncertain. One of them,
a cello, was sold in the early years OF the
century to Sir William Curtis. 1t was put
up at 500 guinoas and bought in at $50
guineas In 1872 the instrument belonged
to the Rev. A. II. Bridges, who showed 1t
In the loan exhibition OF that year.
In Stradivarius and Guarnerius del Jesu
we reach the zenith of perfection In violin
making. The Guarnerius family, like the
Amatis, consisted OF several distinct max
ers, whose work is often confused. They
all form an important branch % the Gre
mona school, but when violinists speak OF
q Guarnorius they mean an instrument by
the last OF the race-to wit, me Joseph
Guarnerius who was born in 1857 and
who is designated 'del Jesu, - from the

fruits OF q policy which was not her own
and which she starved and mutilated when
energy and completeness were needed. She
was remor-eiess when she ought to have
been most lorbearing, and lonient when
she ought to have been stern. She owed
her safety and success to the incapacity
and div isions OF her enemies, rather than
to wisdom and resolution Of her own"

The Bible tlyaIs with precious prom
ises of God to His people The most
precious 1 4 e about all these promises
is the absolute certainty that they Will
be fulfilled. ICED is not man, that
He should lie; neither the Son of Man,
that He should repent. Some promises
are unconditional, and they will be TN
conditionally fulfilled. Other promises
are conditional, and they are absolutely
certain of fUltillment if the conditions
are fulfilled.
The Importance of claiming the prom
Uses of God is apparent to all Unless
we claim them they Will not be fulfilled
toward us, and therefore might as
well have never been given so far as we
are concerned To have the possibility
of power and not to use it avails us no
more than if we did not have it The
power may be there, but the important
thing is to use 1t.
We are encouraged TO claim the prom
Uses of God for two reasons. l. Because
God has the power and ability to fulfill
all he has promised. If one would prom
Use us 81 600 who did not actually pos
sess /, 900 cents, it would be useless to
claim that promise. God has promised
and he has the ability to fulfill all He
has promised. This fact Isaiah impresses
upon Israel to lead them 10 wait upon
the Lord i'll their trouble. God is not
an idol made by mans hands. He is
everlasting, the Creator, the Unwearied.
He has made all things and controls
all things. His power is unlimitable.
9. We are encouraged to claim God 3
promises because God is not only able,
butwilling to fulfill them. The prophet
calls him "Unwearied - Men may be-
come weary Of the petitions and re-
quests Of their friends, but God is so
willing to help His own that He never
vearies. He has said through Christ
ASK and We shall receive; seek and ye
shall find; knock and it shall be opened
unto you. And again Christ has told
Us that His Heavenly Father is more
willing to give His Spirit TO those that
ask Him than earthly parents are to
give good gifts to their children.
God has the power. God is willing. II
all rests with US Do we believe Gods
promises? Do we act as If we believed
them? Do we claim their fulfllms Mt?
If we do not we should Let us take God
at His word, and in trouble, in dis
enlargement, in temptation, let Us wait
upon the Lord and renew our strength.
