Doubling up frame tubes seems to be
increasing in popularity in England.
Front forks are made double, the ends
being connected at crown and tip; rear
forks are doubled on the chain SIDE. and
in some cases on both sides, and the
lower frame tube (from crank hanger
TO bottom ball race of hcaG) is some
times made double part way and Occa-
sionauy all the way. BY such means
very great rigidity can be secured.
An odd method of determining the
amount TO be allowed for a machine

lish concern. They figure that three
shillings a week is a fair allowance for
the use person makes of a wheel.
They then ascertain how long the ma

Der of weeks by three and deduct the
result, in shillings, from the origina!
cost of the wheel. Whatever is left is
the amount TO be allowed for it.

prince was in his thirteenth year, lis
highness spent summer at Futami-
gaura, Ise. While out gamboling in
the water one day the prince no.
ticed a fisherman's boy of about the
same age as himself, whose consum-
mate skill in swimming drew forth
his admiration. The lo1vly youth.
whose name was Yei, had the honor of
being presented to the prince, and
there sprang up boyish friendship
between the two. A decade had
elapsed since then. and his highness
was once more back in Ise, the other
day, on his wedding tour. The men,
cries of the past came back and the
prince thought of Yei. He wanted to
see his old friend, and, after a good
deal of trouble, the order was con-
veyed to Yei, now grown sturdy
young man, but still poor and lowly.
Yei approached the imperial presence.
In high delight the prince talked free
ly of the past and then allowed Yei to
take leave of him loaded with various
presents.-Chicago Record.

DON'T LIKE ARTIFICIAL ICE.
Some Housewives Declare 1t, In Of
Little Account for Refriger-
ating Purposes.

A new grievance has arisen to annoy
the housewife. A few years ago, when
artificial ice came into vogue, she re-
garded it as an unmixed blessing that
would greatly lessen her tribulations.
To-day she complains that it lacks the
one essential property of ice-cooling,
says the Chicago Chronicle. 1t does
not cool things, she says. Even though
the ice box be kept full to the lid with
solid cakes the cream sours and the
strawberries shrivel, the bottled beer
remains tepid, the butter melts and
the salad willis, just as they would were
there no ice in the refrigerator. At
first this puzzled the housewife. She
thought Maria was at fault. But Maria
called the saints to witness that she
had placed the beer bottles all around
the cake of ice, the butter and berries
on top and the cream and lettuce close
by. The housewife was still doubtful.
She spoke of it to neighbor. Its the
ice," said the neighbor. 81 had the
some trouble. There is a big-worded
scientific explanation of it, which
~oh give you. Dut IL SOIue thing 10
know that artificial ice won't keep
things cool, as the Jack Frost kind
does. It's bad enough when one has
a nice, cool cellar in which to keep
ones refrigerator, but when it is one
of the hardwood set-in apartment kind
in a passageway between the kitchen
and the dining-room and one expects
company to dinner and the blanc
mango won't jell-"
just my experience. We had straw
berry custard for dessert-at least we
were to have had one. 1t turned out
something between an eggnog and
very fluffy omelet souffle. We drank it.
OF course blamed poor Maria, scolded
her for not making the custard in time
and for putting too much milk in it.
She said that it had been made in time
anc that she had put it on ice at noon,
which seemed incredible, but / believe
her now. Things do get cool, but they
are no colder after a sojourn of "a
hours in the ice chest than they are
after being there one hour. Maria's
grudee against the crystal-clear plant
ice is bitter. Sure. an it don't Iasht
long enough to cool anything, amy
how she says"

GOD is LOVE.
Man Lost, and God Looking
For Him.

A manifestation Of Gods love IL
shown in the driving Of man out
Of the Garden Of Eden.
Had Adam known Gods perfect
love, he would not have been
afraid. He did not know this be-
cause he had believed the DEVILS
lie. Sin was there. Sin, where
ever it is found, can only be met
with the wrath of God. However,
Satan's lie gave the opportunity
for the display of the full truth in
reference to God. Creation was a
manifestation Of Gods power.
God came at first to create. Then
when man disobeyed, and by dis
obedience brought upon himself
the sentence OF death, God came
to save. Gods question, "where
art thou, proved two things: 1t
proved that man was lost, aud that
God had come to seek Wonder
full manifestation of Gods love.
Man lost, God looking for him.
This was grace. Friend can you
realize what is meant by God seek
ing sinner? By the sin of DISC
bedience man lost his dominion,
his dignity, his happiness, his
purity and his peace. God and
man must meet either in grace or
in judgment
On the cross God descended in
grace to the lowest depths of the
sinners need and there provided
an adequate remedy for all Of
mans need. There Christ per-
fectly satisfied God about sin.
Are you perfectly satisfied with
His son? Are you ready to crown
him king Of all? "Yet there is

My husband received a hook through

but is the truth, the second dose
took gave me lots Of relief. / kept on
using it till / 1sed it nearly a year

used to be and can do any kind Of

seems to me it would cure anybody.
