ANTIQUITY OF SAWS.
They Were In Use Centuries Before
the Christian Era.

Saws were used by the ancient Egyp.
tians. One that was discovered with soy,
eral other carpenters tools in a private
tomb ut Thcbes is now preserved in the
British museum. The blade, which ap
pears to be of brass, is 1OH inches long
and ~ inches broad ut tho widest part
The teeth are irregular and appear tt
have been formed by striking a blunt
edged instrument against tho edge of the
plate, the bur or rough shoulder thus pro
duced not being removed.
A painting copied in Rosellini's work
on Egyptian antiquities represents q mar
using a similar saw, tho piece of wood
which he Is cutting being held between
two upright posts. In other representa-
tions the timber is bound with ropes to
single post, and in one, also copied by
Rosellini, the workman is engaged in
Tightening tho rope, having left the saw
sticking in the cut. In an engraving
given in the third volume of Wilkinson's
"Manners and Customs of the Ancient
Egyptians" n saw is represented Of mucf
larger dimensions, it's length being by
comparison with the man not less thar
three or four feet. 1t does not appear tina
the Egyptians used saws worked by two
men.
Tho invention of saws was ~variously
attributed by the Greeks to two or three
individuals, who are supposed to have
taken tho idea from the jawbone of u snak.
or the backbone of q fish. There is a ver,
curious picture among tho remains dis
covered in the ruins of Hcrculaneum, repre-
senting the interior of q carpenters work
shop, with two genii cutting a piece o.
wood with a frame saw, and on an altar
preserved in the Capitoline museum al
Rome there is a perfect representation o.
q box saw, exactly resembling, in the form
of the frame and the twisted cord fol
Tightening it, those used by modern car
penters. From these remains it is eyiden,
that these forms of the instrument wert
known to the ancients. -London Archi

NINE MULES.
One Man Who Thinks They Are Wise
Beyond Their Generation.

Jim Smiley has studied the character
nj tdiosyncrasics of the coal mine. Jim
believes an old mine mule has moro than
horse sense and in some cases is gifted
with second sight. Jim drove a white
mule for Captain W. b. Rodgers of the
Tide Coal company that had this faculty,
and owing to his exercise of it Jim is able
to relate some of his wondrous experiences
with mine mules. The mule, Jim says.
has Scriptural authority for seeing things
that his drivers cannot SEQ, and cites tho
story of Balaam and tho mule ancestor,
in corroboration of his theory.
The particular mule that Captain Rodg.
ers owned was noted for his light heeled
proclivities and his general objection to
going the way ho was directed. Ono
morning Jim Smiley was taking a trip OF
cars into u cross entry that had some of
the pillars ribbed" This slightly weak
encd tho roof, and, although timbers had
been put in to support the roof, it had be-
gun to "creep." Jim shouted u few
"cuss" words ut the mule, and, calling
him by an opprobrious lame, invited him
to ''gwan." He started off in good style
until the cross entry was reached. Here
he stopped. Jim insisted that the mule
proceed. The mule switched his tail.
Jim applied his black snake whip, which
he unwound from his shoulders for the
purpose.
Force and persuasion were unavailing.
Jim got behind the mine car and pushed
1t against tho mule. Tho animal held
back. Jim pushed harder, and tho mule
toppled over into the car. Jim could not
get tho lnulc out of the car and was forced
to get another mule and pull the wise
mule to the side track, where it was high
enough to jump him out of the pit car.
Jim took the borrowed mule and went
back into the cross entry, and when he
arrived at tho point where the wise mule
had stopped he found that a fall of roof
had occurred in his absence, completely
closing the entry. Had Jim succeeded in
driving tho mule beyond the place of the
"hold up both he and the mule would
have been entombod. Jim says no man
knows as much as pit mule, and they
don't talk SO much either.-Pittsbure

The Ideal Feminine Figure.

the ideal feminine figure in the bountiful

sex differentiation, it can be found in such
shows as Barnuln & Bailey's in the beau.

How Deep We May Dig.

Mining engineers agree that the limit
to which shafts may be sunk into the
earth with the present machinery and
equipments is 10000 feet. The deepest
shaft ever dug is the one now in existence
In one Of the copper mines on Lake 'Su-
perior. It has a sheer depth Of [, 1000 feet.
DR.. A. G. Lane, the assistant geologist for
Michigan, in an article in Mineral Indus
try on'How Deep Can We MineP'' places
the probable limit at $1,000 feet. He sees,
However, that enormously rioh deposits
might lead man to dig TO $4,000 feet with
profit. The element Of danger Is not con.
sidered in these calculations. In conclu-
sion, he says, ""The present knowledge
cannot foreses reaching adspth Of $4,000
feet"

flakes. The salt obtained from the indi-
rect heat lsteam pipe) system is also Of
ian excellent quality.
Salt had been obtained from sea water
in many parts Of the world. Owing to
the foulness of the drainage into the
ocean from the land it is desirable to be
particular about the source Of supply.
Moreover. there are regions in the trop-
les where the salinity of the water is
greater than it is in older climates and
where the same amount Of labor will
yield a larger quantity of solids. The in
dustry is carried ~, however, in a mod
est way on Cape Cod and in Bristol,
Mass. A more considerable business is
done in San Francisco bay, in the county
Of Alameda. From 25 to 80 establish
ments are in operation in that part Of
the country. Other factories for getting
salt from the sea are situated in Los
Angeles and San Diego.
I. The salt beds Of America are found in
Various geological formations. Those Of
western New York, northern Ohio and
some parts Of Michigan represent the
!%silurian period, when the earliest forms
OF animal life made their appearance.
The deposits near East Saginaw, Mich,
belong to the carboniferous age, which is
much later. The Kansas beds are placed
in the triassic series by Professor Robert
Hay, and some of the Virginia wells tap
tertiary rocks. From the taste Of the
ocean Of today it is apparent that a good
deal. Of salt Is still left u~ndeposited. The
work Of solidiication and storage has
been going on, then, more or less inter
mittently for an almost ~incalculable perl

Waterhouse will have the satsfac-

petty jealousy of competitors and
he may have lost money in his
honest endeavor. He has learned
however who his friends are, and
everyone will be there at the right
moment and stand by him.
