A Sp endid Compliment.

Miss Lucia J. Lnwless; who was for
6 years first grade teacher at the Normal
where she was about the most popular
teacher that was ever in the school as
well as among the patrons and town
people, has recently had fine compli-
ment and testimonial to her popularity
shown her, that her Natchitoches friends
will be glad to learn about.
Some few months ago, the leading firm
in Moline, ILL.,. where she is teaching in
the Lincoln school, which numbers a fac
ulty of eighty, offered a trip abroad to
the most popular teacher in the whole
county. Every purchaser of certain
amount from this store had the right to
cast one vote, and over a hundred teach
ers were entered on the lists. Finally it
narrowed down to about fourteen, and
then the voting became very spirited,
and when the final count was made it
was found that Miss Lawless was ahead
by 200 votes. This entities her to a trip
to Europe on q first class steamer, to 60
when abe chooses, and remain as lOug as
she wishes, with all her expenses, inclu-
ding first class transportation while
abroad. Her many friends will rejoice
over the lady's good luck, but say that it
is nothing more than she deserves,

ease, and there were times when fire
could not have been more painful.
She was, in fact, almost wild. Two
bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla CON-
pletely cured her, and not a trace of
eczema was left" E. w. DECKER,

DIAMOND DIES USED wow.
Brass wire Made as Fine ss CObwebs-Copper
Cents SO Thin as TO BE Transparent,

WATERBURy. Conn Aug. ii.-One OF the
latest and most wonderful developments in
brass making is the use Of the diamond die by
means Of which ingot brass is to-day drawn
down to wire Of the ineness OF nine-tenths Of
q thousandth part OF an inch. Steel may also
be drawn nearly as fine, and the two products
when completed are as fine and sOft as the
threads Of a cobweb, and are as wavy and glossy
as human hair.
The brass hair is of a beautiful auburn color
while the steel is OF an iron gray. This wire
f. about as strong "a human hair and Is OF
value for mechanical purposes. being in great
demand by makers OF electrical apparatus
Never before was so fine wire drawn. Until
recent years wire was drawn through steel
dies. The development OF the diamond die
10 its present stage Of perfection has rendered
possible the production Of much finer wire.
In fact. the size Of the wire now possible IL
~ II comes through tho die.
The diamond die is made Of fake diamond
looking not unlike bit Of sinGlass. The hole
through the diamond, and the stone is then
stuck on n steel slab with glue. directly over a
hole In the slab which Is a trltle larger than that
In the diamond. The wire 10 be drawn is then
led through the diamond so that the stone
bears steadily against the slab. This keeps
the diamond In position.
1hp hrdNS lngOlS from NnlCn me cDDWeDDy
wire * made are four inches square and long
enough 10 weigh about $50 pounds. One Of
those will make miles ~ the cobweb wire. II
is first put through steel rolls until II Is reduced
10 the si2. ~ ones finger, and then II is drawn
BY machinery through n set of steel dies. grad
ually decreasing in diameter, until II comes out
the ordinary trades Then II Is put through
set Of eight diamond dies. the diameter Of the
last being the infnitesimal part Of an inch
indicat cd above.
Another curious thing in this brass-making
country is the development Of hydraulic rolls
which are SO scient nthcally adjusted that copper
cent may he rolled ont under them 10 the size
Of an enormous platter, and to thinness
that amounts TO transparency, so that q news
papeT may bc read through the metal. The
operation has to be- conducted with great caro-.
One Of the cents thus rolled out was sent 10
