PRODUCTS FROM BONES.
IA Up-to-Date Embellishments Every
Bit of Material Is 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 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
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 weak solution of sui
phuric acid. From the soaking tanks
the bones emerge white and apparent
ly perfectly clean, but still redolent
with a far-pervading odor. They are
then placed in what are termed digest
ers, or steam tanks, where, after being
subjected to a pressure of steam for
several hours, a spigot is opened at the
bottom of the digester and the liquid
glue is drawn eff. 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, por
tion of which is permitted to harden
for commercial use, as glue, and 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 an ounce of material
is wasted.-N. Y. Tribune.

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 examinati ton
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.

THOUGHT WAVES.

according to Hubbard in the PhilistIne. ]
Civilization is an evolution.
Teachers and those who educate
people to appreciate the things they
need.
The man who studies mankind, and
ascertains what men really want, and
then supplies them this, whether it
be an idea or thing, is the man who is
crowned with honor and clothed with
riches
AS mankind multiplies in number,
the problem of supplying people what
they need is the important question
of earth. And mankind has ever held
out offers of reward in fame and
money-both being forms of power
to whomsoever would supply it bet
ter things.
When a man acts as he believes the
infinite within him would have him
act, he draws power to himself from
unseen sources that power may be
shown in many ways. Things work
smoother, plans carry out, people be-
gin to say lucky" 'she's winner -
etc. Ever try it? II you ever do you
will agree that It is the greatest prop
osition on earth.

Says FiIipinos Are IIIiterate.

Mrs. S. C. Simpson, Of Lawrence, is
with her son, Hoke, who is a teacher
at Santa Maria, uocos, one Of the
philippine islands. Mrs. Simpson
writes Interestingly Of the Fflipinos.
She says not over one-tenth of the
natives can read or write and prob
ably not 1000 of these take a news
paper. In Santa Maria, a town OF
1900 people, only one newspaper is
taken, and it is small Spanish daily
printed in Manila.

SECOND FLOOR PLAN

and street and house illumination all
through its corner of New York state.
II is the idea in Baltimore that the
Susquehanna energy may yet run the
cars and light the streets and build
ings in number of Maryland towns,
says the New York World. So in the
Empire state there is the dream, per-
haps to be realized yet, that the ire
mendous Niagara power now going to
waste will become of avail even in
Manhattan. To the dawning of such
an approach to a smokeless age we
might give hearty welcome in the pres
eit days of soft coal menace.

CHANGE.

A dusty hollow where the pond once lay.
A withered bank, once green with moss
But yonder in wide meadow-lands the hay
Stanos straight and tall to wait the now
er's blade.
A silence, morn and noon among the trees
Where all day long the robins used to
sing;
But life has sweeter uses now for these
Why should we mourn the spring?
dry sharp stubble where the grain-fields
Spread out of late their wealth in wav-
ing pride;
But press and garner keep the manifold
Rich treasure of the autumn countryside.
The sunlight waning with the waning year.
The sting of frost at twilight and at
But hearth and woodland glow with scar
let cheer.
Why mourn for summer gone?
A veil of mist across the purple hills.
A hush of snow along the forest aisles;
A breeding peace that through the silence
thrills
Above the whiteness of unbrol0en miles.
A sealed hope beneath the clasping snow,

annual Rings OF Fishes.

Fishes, like trees, have their TAM
nuaI 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.. j. 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.
