An Historic Bell

Chester (Pa.) Special Philadelphia Inquirer: John Wetherill has found and will have placed in a tower on the Oak Grove schoolhouse bell with luminous record. It is said by the his- torian that when the people of Chester heard that the Declaration of Inde- pendence had been signed they ran to lie courthouse, where this bell then hung, and rang it most of the day, much to the discontinue of the many tories. The old bell was cast in 1729. In 1850 when the county seat was moved to Media, the borough of Chester purchased the buildings and the bell was removed to the old school house. In 1885 new building was erected, and the bell was placed ip ne loft of the new building and forgotten. There is now movement on to have a great ceremony over the moving.

BEE sTINGs CURE RHEUMATISM
Elder Whitmer Finds 1t a Most suo-
 cessful Remedy.

If you have rheumatism, healthy swarm of bees can cure you. They will sting the disease out of your body. The bee cure has been known for some time, but it isn't always a successful medicine. The latest report of suc- cess is given in the American Bee Journal by Elder Daniel Whitmer. He Says: q believe that bee poison, with some people, is a good remedy; it has proved a bonanza and antidote to the writer for many years. Prior to my entering the bee industry had been victim of the disease in it's different forms, attacking the limbs and other portions of the body. Finally, by overWork and manual labor, I was at tackled with sciatic rheum atism, re- eulting in paralysis of the back, thighs, kidneys, bladder, etc., and was under the doctors care and confined to my bed and room for three months. Under the doctors treatment 1 be- came conyalescent, but unable to per- form manual labor on the farm As yet the great numbness in my limbs was so present that in my invalid con- dition chose apiculture as pursuit to give me a livelihood One day in handling a colony of bees I became somewhat careless in the manipulation and irritated the bees to the extent that they rushed out of the hive and stung mo desperately in the numb parts. If I had no feeling before, it Waa evident I had then, for I just danced as I never did before for don't believe in it In twenty-four hours I was well man, so far as Rheumatism was COT cerned, numbness AYI gone u

 How to Lay Bricks.
 Estimates are based by the 1000 bricks laid in wall. 1t is customary to deduct for doors, windows, arches, etc, but not for aaes, ends of joists. girders, window frames, sills or lin- tels. In a general way, four and one- half inch wall will require seven bricks to the square foot; fourteen for a nine-inch wall, etc. Tunnel and arch patchwork is measured by the eu- bic yard. It requires thirty eight bricks, eight and one-auarter by four by two, with points one=third to one fourth inch wide, to lay one square yard if laid fiat If placed on edge, it will take seyenty-three, while if on end, f49. Ornamental work, such as @orniees and beads, is produced by causing courses of bricks to project beyond the place of the rest. In laying walls, the first principle to be observed, in order to gain tho greatest resistance, is to have the bricks of successive courses overlap each other, so that the joint between the two is overlaid by the middle of a brick What is known as the old English bond and which gives the greatest strength consists in arranging the bricks in alternate courses of stretchers and headers. the former being bricks laid Iongitudina1ly with the wall and the other transverse ly. The headers serve to bind the sey- eral courses together.
