SAVING UP A LOG.
Cow Planks Are Cut Into Shape In a
Great Western Sawmill.

how pl0nkS Are Tut IDIo shape IN u
Great Western Sawmill.
W. S. HARDWOOD contributes 1.-THE
Story of q Pine Board" to st. Nicholas.
After telling of the cutting down of the
tree and its progress from the forest to
the mill Mr.. HARDWOOD says:
Up from tho yellowish brown depths
Of the slow moving river flowing so
steadily on its way to the sea ome a
huge, dark brown thing with a shining,
dripping coat. 1t is our log, entering
upon its last stage. It passes at once up
q long incline called the "slit"-a
trench of wood about eight inches deep
and two feet wide at the top. so hol-
lowed out that the largest log will lie
In 1t securely as 1t is being drawn up
the incline by the stout chains with
which the slit is equipped. Projecting
pieces Of steel ON this chain serve to
keep the log steady. its great weight,
causing 1t to sink upon these pieces of
steel, which are like sharp teeth. A
workman, standing at the side Of the
slit, by means Of q lever throws up two
powerful steel pointed arms, which lift
the logs out Of the slit and throw them
upon tables, from which they are rolled
down to the carriage which leads to the
saws. When the log reaches the car
riage, 1t is thrown upon the framework
by the "nigger'-a long, ratcheted tim
bar or piece Of steel. This framework is
like O section of an ordinary fat car
running on a regular railroad track.
Two men stand on the moving carriage
and at q signal from the head sawyer,
who directs the cutting of the log, reg
ulate the thickness Of the plank or board
by the levers of the carriage.
When the log has been adjusted, it
rapidly advances to the saw, and in a
very few seconds its water soaked sides
have been trimmed by the sharp teeth.
The carriage flies back to the starting
place with the swiftness Of the wind,
and it is enough to make one shudder to
see it go. You expect every instant that
one of the men will be thrown off and
terribly injured. They learn to balance
themselves, however, though there are
frequent accidents. One instant of mat
tention ON the part of the head sawyer,
who regulates the speed of the carriage
by his lever, would send the carriage
flying back to the end of the mill with
tremendous force and probably kill both
of the men. One of the men on the car
riage, called the ''setter," fixes the
width of the board to be sawed O sig
nal from the head sawyer; the other
man is the second sawyer.
AS l stood one day in n of these
mills, watching the men flying forth
and back on the narrow carriage, and
almost expecting that n or both Of
them would be thrown off In the swift.
ness Of their flight, l took out my watch
and timed them, and I found that they
travelled Oh an average on this little
railroad not more than 90 feet long,
1888, 900 feet a day, or about 81 miles.

On Ships, Beds.

The Arundel Castle Is the finest boat
I have seen in these seas. She Is thor
oughly modern, and that statement COW
ers a great deal Of ground. She has the
usual defect, the common defect, the
universal defect, the defect that has
never been missing from any ship that
ever sailed-she has imperfect beds.
Many ships have good beds, but no ship
has very good ones. In the matter of
beds all ships have been badly edited,
ig~norantly edited, from the beginning.
The selection Of the beds is given o
some hearty, strong backed, self maze
man, when it ought to be given to q
frail woman accustomed from girlhood
to backaches and insomnia. Nothing is
so rare Oh either side Of the ocean as a
perfect bed; nothing is so difficult 70
make. Some Of the hotels ON both sides
provide it, but no ship ever does or ever
did. In Noah's ark the beds were sim
ply scandalcus. Noah set the fashion,
and it Will endure III one degree of mod
itication o. anorQer until the next floot..
