Quite . Pretty Penny Can Be Earned BY
u Little Timely Care.

If care is taken TO look out for all
scraps OF wax, cappings and pieces OF
combs that for any reason are rejected
II will make pretty piece Of wax in the
course of the year. If solar wax ex-
tractor il used of course il can only be
used when the sun is shining and the
weather warm, making IL impossible to
render any wax except In not weather.
But there may be more leisure for II
now, and on one account cold weather
Is desirable. In melting up old black
combs the cocoons in them absorb
large amount OF wax which is lost. To
prevent such absorption soak the combs
thoroughly In water, so that the cocoons
already filled with water can take up 10
wax. But you'll find a hard matter 10
soak the combs full of water unless they
are broken up fine, and II the combs are
not made brittle with cold IL will be
impossible to break them up. So IL will
be seen that cold weather is to an ex-
tent needed If you want TO melt up old
combs. After the combs are broken up
fine they may be saved till hot weather
by the solar extractor, or they may be
melted up at once, of course after
soaking.
One good way TO melt combs in win
ter is easily accomplished with only the
ordinary appliances to hand in every
household. Take an old dripping pan
of course an entirely new one will do as
well-split open one corner clear to the
bottom, and you have one of the best
wax extractors. Lay in the material
from which the wax is 10 be extracted
and put the pan in the oven of the cook
stove with the door left open, and the
split corner of the pan projecting out.
Put something under the inside of the
pan, so as TO raise il up, then as the wax
melts II will run out of the split corner
OF the pan. To catch the dropping wax
set any vessel convenient, and IL may be
well to have in this vessel little water.
80 the wax will not stick to the bottom.

According to Miss Mary Proctor, the
seven stars In the constellation known
as the Great Dipper" are in reality
seven magnificent suns probably very
much larger than our own sun and
glowing with intense luster. Iron, So
dunn, magnesium and other well-known
elements are present in the atmos-
pheres OF these stars, and their massive
globes whirl through the depths of
space with Uncomfortable velocity. Five
OF the stars are receding from us nj the
rate Of II miles in second Of time, and
the other two are travelling in an oppo-
site direction. Thirty-siN thousand
years from now the seven stars of the
dipper will have dissolved partnership,
and IFS appearance will have entirely
changed. Chicago Tribune.

TO LIMIT THE HEIGHT
OF TALL BUILDINGS
At The recent annual meeting

At the recent annual meeting
of the Board of Trade and
Transportation in New York,
the report of the special COM
mittee on the subject of the
Limitation of the height Of
buildings recommended that a
law be drafted and presented
to the Legislature providing
that, on the wide streets and
avenues of this city. no build
ing hereafter erected shall ex-
ceed 200 feet in height, and
that no building used as hotel
or apartment house shalt ex
coed 165 feet. These measure
ments shall be from the curb
level to the highest point of
the cornice or roof beams of a
building. Justly proportionate
lesser heights should be pro
vided for the erection of struc-
lures on the narrower streets
and avenues of the city. This
law should also provide that in
every building erected to a
height of 137 feet and over
there shall be two separate
stairways leading from the
ground floor to the roof, one OF
which shall be remote from the
elevator. It was further recon-
mended that the law shall re
quire that all buildings over
137 feet in height shall have q
complete fire fighting plant
this obligation to apply to al
such building that are already
in existence. 1t was also rs
commended that the presen
building laws be revised

Boiled rice will digest in one

it requires two hours; if eaten
with unboiled milk two hours

will digest in about one hour
and a half; fried three hours
and a half; soft-boiled, three
hours; hard,boiled, three hours

as one assists in the digestion
of the other. Salt beet requires
four hours and fifteen minutes.
Beefsteak, broiled, three hours.
Stewed oysters, three hours
