illustration is shown one of these
combination articles which has been
designed by Adele Nadeau, of Fitch
burg, Mass, the form shown being
that of the cradle. An examination
of the picture will show how the
cradle can be altered to form the
chair. The center panel of the front
drops back into the bottom of the
cradle, with the two shorter panels
on either side folded over it. Then
the rear panels fold around behind
the back, leaving the ends of the
cradle free to fall outward. The ends
of the bed are then lifted to form the
arms on either side of the seat, and
the panels are locked in place by
hooks and bolts. A cushion or mat
tress is next placed on the seat, COM
pleting a comfortable rocking chair.

that should dwell in this magic land,
and fascinate you by their gorgeous
colors and their graceful, wavy mo.
tions.
There is great green "parrot-fish,"
as brilliant in color as his namesake
the bird, showing himself boldly, and
swimming along slowly, secure from
any assault. His scales are green as
the fresh grass of springtime, and
each one is bordered by a pale-brown
line. His fins are pink, and the end of
the tail is banded with nearly every
color of the rainbow. He is snowy, but
this showiness serves him good pur-
pose. His flesh is bitter and poisonous
to man, and probably so to other fishes
as well, and they let him well alone,
for they can recognize him afar off,
thanks to his gaudy dress.
Underneath the parrot, lying on the
bottom, is :. pink hind" You notice
him, and as the parrot passes over him
he suddenly changes to bright scarlet,
and as quickly resumes his former
faint-color. Had the parrot been look
ing for his dinner, and thought the
hind would make good first course,
this sudden change of color might
have scared him off, just as the sudden
bristling of cat makes dog change
his mind. When the hind is disturbed
at night he gives out flashes of light
to startle the intruder and send him
away in frIght.-Prof. c. L. Bristol, in
st. Nicholas.

Told of n Clever Collie.

Lassie, year-old Scotch collie, in
Benton Harbor, Mich, is said to be one
of the best trained young dogs in the
lower peninsula, and her teaching has,
in great part, been brought about by
circumstances attending the i'll health
of the faithful animals mistress. Be-
cause of this i'll health Lassie has been
taught to tighten the duties of her
mistress, and she does it with a will
lingness and exactness that has at
tracted great deal of attention. Las
sic waits on her mistress with the
faithfulness of trained nurse. Lit
tie things about the house are carried
back and forth instantly upon h6r
being asked to do so. She carried a
pail of water without spilling drop
and will convey bunch of mail or a
basket of groceries in her mouth. She
answers the door bell and seems TO
know when to say "come in" or to an
nounce that some one is mot at
home" Lassie is one of the best bred
sollies in Michigan.

USEFUL COMBINATION.
Cradle for baby That Can BE Changed

A piece of furniture which is capa-
BILE of serving the double purpose of
a chair and cradle would be con-
venience in nearly every home at
some time or other, and as n matter
of economy it might recommend it,
self to many who would not other
wise see the need of it. With the
growth of the child and consequent
idleness of the cradle 1t would be
more desirable to transform it into
an extra chair than to store it, where
it might occupy valuable space and
be of no service to anyone. In the

Annual Rings of Fish es.

Fishes, like trees, have their IAN
nual rings" The scales of many
fishes show a series of parallel eccen-
trio lines, which indicate successive
increments of growth, and these lines
of growth prove to be more widely
separated in that part of the scale
formed during the warm season Of
the year than in that of the cold sea-
son. Mr.. ]. Stuart Thompson, who
has been studying the markings, has
reached the important conclusion
that in many species the ages of in
dividuals may be determined quite ac-
curately.

PRODUCTS FROM BONES.
In Up-to-Dnte Establishments Every
Bit of Material Ia Utilized for
Various Purposes.

The economy which is practiced in
the average boarding house has be-
come proverbial, but it is extrava-
gance to the standard of economy
practiced at a bone mill" The chief
product from bones is glue, and among
other materials which are obtained
from them are soap, glycerine and fer
tilizers. Nothing is wasted. Even the
most economical boarding house has a
few parings and husks to throw away.
There are no parings and husks in the
disposition of bones.
The first stage in the utilization of
bones is that of cleaning them. When
brought to the glue factory they are
apt to be covered with more or less
dried flesh and bits of foreign matter.
After being carefully culled over by
workmen and broken by crushers they
are soaked in a weak solution of sui
phuric acid. From the soaking tanks
the bones emerge white and apparent
ly perfectly clean, but still redolent
with far-pervading odor. They are
then placed in what are termed digest
ers, or steam tanks, where, a fter being
hupJeCbeu W IL pressure Ol steam IOT
several hours, a spigot is opened at the
bottom of the digester and the liquid
glue is drawn off. The grease of the
bones, being lighter, is drawn off last
and separated from the first product.
The liquid glue is evaporated to a
strength of As per cent. gelatine, a por-
tion of which is permitted to harden
for commercial use, as glue, and a part
is refined and sold for gelatine for
table use.
The grease is drawn off into cooling
tanks, where, in its crude state, it is
made into securing soaps. BY pro-
cess of refining and the admixture of
vegetable oils and perfumes, toilet
soaps are produced. The spent liquors
which are run off from the boiling soap
are utilized for the manufacture OF
glycerine. The bones which are taken
out of the digesters are ground up for
fertilizing purposes, and the dirty
water in which they are cleansed is
boiled down and made into manure
From the beginning to the end of the
process not even sn ounce of material
Is wasted.-N. Y. Tribune.

PARENTS WORTH HAVING.

My father and mother can never be beat
They're the incest that ever were made.
They remember the fun they had when
they were young,
And all of the games that they played
And, better. than all, they play with as
themselves,
Yes, really and truly, they do!
Every night after dinner tin bedtime has
There's Willie and Burton and Prue,
And Ahce-thats me-and my father and
mother
Enough for some royal good fun.
We play Blind Mans Buff and Hide-and-
Go-Seek,
You should see how my mother can run!
They don't either one of them mind being
And they always are awfully fair.
We none of us think the games any fun
Unless all the players are square"
And every new game we teach father and
mother;
They teach all the old ones to us;
So we romp and we play, big and little to-
With never sign of fuss.
But sometimes a stranger man comes to
He creeps in so quiet and still
That we don't know he's here till we hear a
deep sigh
From out iittlest one-that is VIII.
Then we know that the Sand Man has
Joined in our play
And is trying to put us to sleep.
Then father and mother both kiss us good
night
And away into DreamNand we creep.

In 1924 La Fayette carried out his
long-cherished purpose of revisiting
America. He sailed from Havre July
13, accompanied by his son, George
Washington, to spend a year in the re-
public he had helped ts found. His
eyes fell on teeming states where he
had left narrow seaboard line of
struggling colonies. New York well
coined him with the widest acclama-

over the country, through the west and
south, greeted with affection; gazing
on new commonwealths sprung out of
the wilderness; witnessing the excit-
ing presidential contest between Ad-
ans, Jackson, Clay and Crawford; ad-
miring the order ST our political sys-

and, fresh from the failure of the
French republic, admiring the success
of our constitutional system. Con-

Boys of n Century Ago.

A pioneer boy found his life an inter-
esting one. While still young he re-
ceived careful training in initiating the
notes and calls of birds and wild ami
mails. At IL years of age he became a
foot soldier, with port hole assigned to
him for use in case of an Indian tack.
He received careful training also in fol-
lowing an Indian trail and in conceal
ing his own when on the war path. For
expert knowledge of this kind was nec-
essary in the midst of dangers from
unseen foes that were likely to creep
stealthily upon the settlers, whether
they were working In the clearings or
hunting in the forest.
