Care In Making Axes.

An Ak Is subject to rigid tests before
IT is pronounced perfect. The steel must
be OF the required temper, the weight
OF all axes of the same size must be
uniform, all must be ground alike and
In various other ways conform to an es-
tahlished standard. The inspector who
tests the quality Of the steel does so by
hammering the blade and striking the
edge to ascertain whether 1t be too
brittle or not. An ak that breaks dur
ing the test is thrown aside to be made
over. Before the material of an ak is in
the proper shape 1t has been heated five
times, including the tempering process,
and the AK when completed has passed
through the hands of about 40 work
men. each of whom has done something
toward perfecting 1t. After passing In
Spection the axes go to the grinding de-
partment and from that to the polish
ers, who finish them upon emery
wheels.

tures, working without intermission day
and night. When one felt the need of
sleep he lay on a couch. holding in his
hand a ball, beneath which, on the
floor, was a brazen bowl. When his
muscles relaxed sufficiently to release
the ball. it fell into the bowl, and the
noise wakened the sleeper who resumed
his work.
But it is one thing to give up sleep
and another thing altogether to be
unable to sleep. Those who suffer
from asthma, bronchitis and other dis
eases of the organs of respiration are
only too familiar with this enforced
wakefulness. They would give almost
anything for nights unbroken rest.
THE SECRET OF SLEEP
for them lies in the cure of the diseases
which Danish slumber. That this cure
is possible is abundantly proven by
those who have used Doctor Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery for the cure
of bronchitis, obstinate and deep-seated
coughs, lung rtrouble" and other dis
eases OF the organs Of respiration.
cI can this day say that DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is the best
and only remedy have ever found for
what the doctors call asthma" writes

the hay-fever, and only used two bottles
of the Golden Medical Discovery"
The cures accomplished by the use of
~Colden Medical Discovery" are as
numerous as they are wonderful. @The

been won in the cure of chronic dis

How Fortress Monroe Was Built.

How Fortress Monroe Was Built.
The manner of constructing the fort
at Old Point Comfort Is interesting
and throws some light on customs and
practices then in vogue. The work was
almost wholly done by slaves who were
brought TO the place by their masters
and leased to the engineers in charge.
The slave owner received 30 cents a
day for each slave. and the government
furnished each "laborer." as the slave
was called. with two suits of working
clothes, pair or two OF shoes. rations,
quarters and occasionally little tobac-
60, The "laborers" worked with very
little clothes and generally without
shoes. They lived in barracks and were
subject to kind of military discipline.
The owners were regular in coming in
to collect the hire for their slaves. from
which we may infer that the ''constitu-
ents" of those days knew how to appre-
ciatc n good thing to a degree worthy
OF the present generation.-Leslie's
